I went out drinking with thomas paine
He said that all revolutions are not the same
They are as different as the cultures
That give them birth
For no one idea
Can solve every problem on earth

So dont expect it all to happen
In some prophesied political fashion
For people are different
And so are nations
You can borrow ideas
But you cant borrow situations

In leningrad the people say
Perestroika can be explained this way
The people who told us
That two and two is ten
Are now trying to tell us
That two and two is five

Were living in a north sea bubble
Were trying to spend our way out of trouble

You keep buying these things but you dont need them
But as long as youre comfortable it feels like freedom

My american friends dont know what to do
But theyll wait a long time for a beverley hills coup

War! what is it good for
Its good for business
