easterhouse - get back to russia lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
you know how things are, when you get to talking
about the state of the world, everyone’s got an opinion
i was talking to some boys who were friends of a friend
and we stopped to pass the time as we had nothing else to do
someone made a chance remark, and then an argument got started
we were talking about russia, the things they say go on
and something he saw on the tv, a tv documentary

on the lack of basic freedom, human liberty
i said now, now listen, you ought to save your sympathy
wе need it more than they, as far as i can see
we all know thеy’re in chains, you only think that you are free
and it’s the russian working man ,who knows exactly where he stands

[verse 2]
they tell you, in england, we’re all entitled to a say
but nothing too extreme, that’s not the english way
your political delusions, have bound you hand and foot
and anyone who questions is an agitator, infiltrator

[chorus]
get back to russia, i hear you say
get back to russia, but there ain’t no way
still it would be nice
[bridge]
leningrad in spring must be a pretty sight
sit down by the volga, all that cool blue water

[verse 2]
i said now, now listen, n0body tells it like it is
don’t believe that things were always just like this
there have been very different times
before the labour party line
when those who sit upon our backs did not have such an easy ride

we were not satisfied
our anger could not be denied
to soothe our discontent we got a voice in parliament
representatives to tell you that the class who buy and sell
expect that you should do your duty, die for king and country

we’ve got the labour party, a patriotic party
who led you off to war and told you “this is what you’re fighting for”
and n0ble, patriotic, foolishly believed them
and the flag is what they wrapped them in;
the ones who gave their lives

and after it was over and they counted up the spoils of war
they let you have a welfare state, a pension when you reach old age
talked about equality, a stake in this society
they’ve sold you down the line, what’s more
they’ve sold you down the line
[pre+chorus]
they tell you, in england, we’re all entitled to a say
but nothing too extreme, that’s not the english way

[chorus]
get back to russia, i hear you say
get back to russia, but there ain’t no way
england made me and here i’ll stay
england made me, let england deal with me

leningrad in spring must be a pretty sight
sit down by the volga, all that cool blue water

[verse 3]
you can’t get levi jeans
or pictures of james dean
but these things i have seen
they don’t mean that much to me

they tell you, in england, we’re all entitled to a say
but nothing too extreme, that’s not the english way
your political delusions, have bound you hand and foot
and anyone who questions is an agitator, infiltrator

[chorus]
get back to russia, i hear you say
get back to russia, but there ain’t no way
england made me and here i’ll stay
england made me, let england deal with me
get back to russia, i hear you say
get back to russia, but there ain’t no way
england made me and here i’ll stay
england made me, let england deal with me

get back to russia, i hear you say
get back to russia, but there ain’t no way
england made me and here i’ll stay
england made me, let england deal with me

england made me and here i’ll stay
england made me, let england deal with me
