Lyrics

Communist Friends

I've got aching veins
And fancy pants
And I mispronounced my own name
When you asked me to dance, oh, ho

Well, I won't cry now
'Cause it's up to you
And I'm so afraid
Yeah, I'm so afraid
That nothing's gonna change

So you're gonna die, ohh
Says your receding lifeline, oh, ho
And my communist friends
They wanna help me
Or so they tell me but

Hey, yeah, hey
Where are you when I need you?
Where are you?

My communist friends
They want to kill me
They're going to kill me

Hey, yeah, hey
Where are you when I need you?
Where are you?

Oh, ho, oh, oh, oh
Where are you when I need you?
Where are you?
