The Old Man's Back Again [Dedicated to the Neo-Stalinist Regime] lyrics

I've seen a hand, I've seen a vision

It was reaching through the clouds

To risk a dream, the shadow crossed the sky

And it crushed it to the ground, just like a beast

The old man's back again

The old man's back again

I seen a woman, standing in the snow

She was silent as she watched them take her man

Teardrops burned her cheeks

For she'd thought she'd heard the shadow had left this land

The old man's back again

The old man's back again

The crowds just gathered, their faces turned away

And they queue all day, like dragons of disgust

All the women whispering

Wondering just what these young hot-heads want of us

And Andrei V. he cries, with eyes that ring like chimes

His anti-worlds go spinning through his head

He burns them in his dreams

For half awake they may as well be dead

The old man's back again

I see he's back again

I see a soldier, he's standing in the rain

For him there's no old man to walk behind

Devoured by his pain

Bewildered by the faces who pass him by

He'd like another name, the one he's got's a curse

These people cried

Why can't they understand

His mother called him Ivan then she died

The old man's back again

The old man's back again

I can see him back again

Da da da da da da da da
