Komrade Kiev Songtext
von Corey Hart

I watch the papers everyday
They drink the same cup of tea
I read the tv everyday
They deal the same cards for me

I turn my head now to the left
See the Marx upon your face
Turn my head now to the right
See the darkness of your light

Didn't see the flag you raised
Through the glory that we praised
There's a child that stands amazed
At the craziness we've paved

And the sun will shine through wintertime
I pray the rain will someday end the flame

Shoot Komrade Kiev
Oh, that's what they say to me
Shoot Komrade Kiev, oh


Shoot Komrade Kiev
Oh, that's what they're telling me
Shoot Komrade Kiev, oh

And through the pride and prejudice
You blind the truth, you couldn't miss
For the target you have drawn
Won't bite the hand that cuts the arm

And when the story's finally told
Each man's heart was bought and sold
There was no enemy you see
Only the doubt in you and me

I know the sun will shine through wintertime
I pray the rain will someday end the flame

Shoot Komrade Kiev
Oh, that's what they say to me
Shoot Komrade Kiev, oh

Shoot Komrade Kiev
Oh, that's what they're telling me
Shoot Komrade Kiev, oh


I've walked through Mother Russia
In the cold of wintertime
And I've seen every mountain
That each man wants to climb

But I know
Farewell to arms
That one day the sun will shine

Shoot Komrade Kiev
Shoot Komrade Kiev
Shoot Komrade Kiev, oh
Shoot Komrade Kiev, oh

Shoot Komrade Kiev
Oh, that's what they say to me
Shoot Komrade Kiev, oh

Shoot Komrade Kiev
Oh, that's what they're telling me
Shoot Komrade Kiev
