Marx & Engels

歌詞

There's misery in all I hear and see From people on TV After their tea when life begins again They'll be happier than me There are a thousand meals being made on Saturday From the view I saw today I took a bet inside the launderette With a girl from Wallasey She spoke in dialect I could not understand But one thing that she made clear There was no coming on to her There was no way There's misery in all I hear and see From people on TV After their tea when life begins again They'll be happier than me There are a thousand meals being made on Saturday From the view I saw today I took a bet inside the launderette With a girl from Wallasey She spoke in dialect I could not understand But one thing that she made clear There was no coming on to her There was no intellect That she could respect If it couldn't see That the girl just wants to be Left alone with Marx and Engels for a while She's writing in the style Of any riot girl Background female vocals: "The bourgeois historically have played a revolutionary part to end all feudal idyllic relationships. It has destroyed personal worth and, in place of freedom, is exploitation for profit alone. There is a spectre of the past in my bold assertion; we could learn much from the past."
