lyrics

"communist café"

words & music by ron leary © 2006

a safe haven for the not so sane
escape the mainstream put yourself on display
oh the bookshelf it is leaning to the left
fair trade coffee it’s pouring like a deep oil well

change the world, change the world
right here at the communist café
change the world, change the world
strip that white man of his capital to spend

down with the system that is the stated goal
twenty-one year olds bond together take down this world
headquartered in a small northern town
the epicentre of that big ol storm that’s bound to come

change the world, change the world
right here at the communist café
change the world, change the world
strip that white man of his capital to spend

waiting for the revolution to come
around the round table discussin what needs to be done
we must turn things upside down
keep the lights down low til the explosion’s begun

change the world, change the world
right here at the communist café
change the world, change the world
strip that white man of his capital goods
