Contact in Red Square

Not rated yet.

1 2 3 4
Although I'm young I got a job to do
Hid the microfilm in the lining of my shoe
Call it a business trip
Got to hide inside my trenchcoat and be clever

I got my papers and a cyanide pill
My polaroid's a taser in disguise
There's a base in the hills
And the wheat fields look like Kansas in November

Astrovia, sweet comrade, your nation is your gun
Your love reads like the broken code you sent me
One last contact in Red Square unless I have to run
And the long arms of the KGB detect me

Can't trust a soul, secret messenger
Just the rules that lie like circuits in your brain
And a cool 45.
The wind is ice and foreign air tastes grey

ICBM and Bang! You're dead! No one left to worry
Kiss me quick, now I have to hurry
Our last contact in Red Square unless I have to run
And the long arms of the CIA detect me

Hey!
Hey! Hey!
