lyrics

I thought we’d be free
This time, at last
If anyone had asked

We’d taken back control
It was time to rock’n’roll
But it didn’t quite work out
Like that now,
Did it?

The commies shut down all the world
Made sure there was such a lag
Before those secret reports unfurled
Now all the world’s a fucking Gulag

God’s taken back our souls
Now who’s left to rock’n’roll?
None to rock and roll
