In 1917, the Russian Revolution started with a bang
The Tsars were overthrown when Lenin invoked Marx to unite common man
But revolution failed, the Russian masses starved
With a five-point attack, you'll see red
With a five-point attack, you'll see stars
With a five-point attack
In 1689, John Locke defied the English aristocracy
Frenchmen and Americans would later topple royal families
But rich men still rule the world
The aristocracy's back
With a capital S and a vertical stripe
You'll see me in my tower livin' the life
With a capital S and a vertical stripe
You'll see me in my tower livin' the life
With a five-point attack, you'll see red
With a five-point attack, you'll see stars
Red stars and dollar signs
Red stars raised the flag
And closed out the world
Dollars raised the fear
And impelled the world
The record is held
In 1989, the Iron Curtain fell, dismantled in Berlin
Socialists had lost the war as Capitalists slyly claimed the win
And without an evil empire
World domination could begin
But Wall Street crashed, yeah!
Red stars and dollar signs
Red stars and dollar signs
Should be aligned
Red stars and dollar signs
Red stars and dollar signs
