Talkshow Boy - Perestroika Love lyrics

Someone pushed the button on
The perestroika lovers
It's like a cityscape within a city
Innercity revolutionary areas
Scrawling lovenotes to their
Lovers screaming out
Of windows in the middle of
The morning
Yawning in the middle of the morning
Scrawling in the middle of the morning

Many years Ukrainians fought for
Independence and for freedom
Fighting so resiliently against
The relentless oppression
Trying to preserve thеir culture which
Was being choked by Russians
Knee-deep in this creepy feeling callеd love
In the former Soviet Union
Perestroika perestroika perestroika
Perestroika
Perestroika baby hammer sickle be
Yr soviet boy

Something's got control of you
And you can't hold yr head up high
You walk to your classroom, schoolroom
Anything
You are the stylish
Always-on-the-money police
I fry at the sight of you, oh baby
Anything you do can not be wrong
You're always on the money, baby
You do your hair in the soviet limelight

I'm so dead I can't articulate
What I want to
Say and if I want to say it anyway
Resiliently, I cry against the sick
Oppression in the world
I got my culture and I'm changing my
Name and my ethnicity like I dunno
Y'know
Knee-deep in a new old feeling called love
In the former One! Two! Three! Four!

Perestroika perestroika perestroika
Perestroika
Perestroika baby hammer sickle be
Yr soviet boy
I'll be your soviet boy
I'll be your soviet One! Two! Three! Four!

Perestroika!
