South China Sea Spleen,
|
where have you been? |
It's been such a long time,
|
are we still friends? |
South China Sea Spleen,
|
can you spare some bread? |
Eating termites all day long,
|
can't keep my family fed. |
|
Wait 5 years for a toaster,
|
find out there is no bread. |
Thanks for the TV set,
|
but there's no place to plug it in. |
Coloring my Communist coloring book,
|
with my favorite red crayon. |
Party politics getting me down,
|
lots of reasons to kick Spleen out of
town. |
|
South China Sea Spleen,
|
where did you go? |
To a communist rally, |
or a propaganda picture show? |
South China Sea Spleen,
|
can you spare some bread? |
Eating termites all day long,
|
can't keep my family fed. |
|
Spleenbo's my enemy, |
Mao is my friend. |
Spleenbo is everything that we
can't comprehend. |
Spleenbo is nothing to me, you
know, |
I could give a damn. |
Mao is everything to us, |
Spleenbo you must die... and
leave town on a bus. |
|
South China Sea Spleen, |
where have you been? |
It's been such a long, long
time, |
are we still friends? |
South China Sea Spleen,
|
can you spare some bread? |
Eating termites all day long,
|
don't keep my family fed. |
