m.j. hibbett & the validators – red black gold lyrics

red black gold! red black gold!
red black gold! red black gold!

near a lonely layby on the b6061
stands a petrol station rarely used by anyone
there behind the cashier’s desk
the sleeper agent waits
for the signal from the kremlin
telling him to activate
part of a chain of service stations funded by the kgb
designed to form invasion staging posts for the red army

red black gold! red black gold!
red black gold! red black gold!

the rest of the chain was quietly sold when the cold war had cooled down
the sleeper used his agent’s pension to buy the leasehold out
it’s all he’s ever known to do
so he prefers to wait
for the signal from the kremlin
telling him to activate
so say ‘nyet’ to welcome break, let moto be ignored
look for the final holdout
on the island of mam tor

red black gold! red black gold!

searching online for the lyrics to ‘ask’
i found an unofficial homepage
with a furious debate between teenagers over
the words of a morrissey phrase
some said he sang ‘it is the bond’ meaning the bond
that forms when the lovers unite
others thought it was ‘the bomb’ like explosions
that go off when love unrequited requites
but of course it’s the bomb, it’s the nuclear bomb
is the bomb that’ll bring them together
but none of them knew, they had no idea what it meant

and i thought, well that’s great, that we live in an age
where the kids don’t live in certain knowledge
that they’ll all be wiped out beneath a mushroom cloud
before they’re halfway through sixth form college
and i know that the world isn’t perfect, i know there’s lots wrong
but at least we have managed to turn round the words of one song
because it’s not the bomb, it’s not the bomb
that’ll bring us together
and if it’s not the bomb maybe it’s love
