Temptation

Comrades
People of the world
We aint got nothing to lose
Got them Bourgeoisie Blues
Mr. IV Lenin, Lenin of love
Gonna make us feel so fine, with a hit
Of socialism, in the mainline

Bourgeois Parlimentarianism
The highest state of society
Third world debt, first world exploitation
What a society we're livin' in
Sellin' third world drugs at first world prices
They say Lenin was wrong....who says?
It's enough to give me the f___ing blues

I know you're searching for some new sensation
'Coz I saw you withe the sugar man
You took a taste of that sweet salvation
Now you're eatin' out the palm of his hand
You hear some line from a song that reminds you
Of a time when you were seventeen
The memory moves ya but ya feel kinda confused
'Coz now money is your melody

Looks like
Temptations got a hold on you
Shes eatin away at your dreams
You're so hungry for that smell of money
You been, wastin away for years

Yeah you've been tempted brother,
you been tempted sister too.

Here you were hustlin with some heavy connections
Hooked up on those dollars and dimes
You were looking for thrills and dressed up to kill
Any m_________er messin with your goldmine
Now you walk the line tryin to buy yourself time
You want a honey backed guarantee
But the bees they are buzzin and the flies they are hummin
Round the holes in your hypocrisy

Looks like
Temptations got a hold on you
Shes eatin away at your dreams
You're so hungry for that smell of money
You been, wastin away for years

Larry Love: What do we want?
IV Lenin: (something about government)
Larry Love: And what kinda power?
IV Lenin: Soviet power.......It's enough to give me the f___ing blues!

Larry Love: Socialism...straight in the mainline!
See you're wasting away now (repeat till end)
