"The Revolutionary Sirens of the Big City"

lyrics

SEXY SOCIALISTA SISTERS

When I was a young man
I listened to the radio
Lying in the dark with my headphones
Music breaking through the static haze
It's symptomatic of a young man
He needs something to believe in
A visionary martyr
With the promise of a bright new better day

He don't need a fascist groove thing
For the politics of dancing
In A Ghost Town
He needs a song of protest and desire
To keep the revolution warm


(CHORUS)
Sexy Socialista Sisters
Sexy Socialista Babes
Molotov Cocktails in the evening
Riots and laughter every day

Blonde bombastic and alluring
In matching soviet uniforms
Revolutionary Sirens
It's a look that says "comrade come this way"
And when they sing their manifesto
They deliver it with gusto
Oh how they make me lust oh!
Come and spirit me away

Not for me Che Guevara
Comrade Lenin or Zapata
In my little red book
I've found utopia

Sock it to me...
(CHORUS)

All this time
The Polity was in decline
And everywhere the neo-liberal banksters on the rise
But deep inside, the Sisters helped me keep my pride
With a vision of a Great Big State where the aparatchicks fly

Sexy Socialista Sisters
Sexy Socialista Babes
Molotov Cocktails in the evening
Riots and laughter every day

Sexy Socialista Sisters
Sexy Socialista Babes
Marx and Engels in the bedroom
Leon Trotsky all the way

Sexy Socialista Sisters
Sexy Socialista Babes
Revolution on the Sidewalk
Situation A OK

Beneath the pavement there's a beach…
