Harvesting bones on the dust bowl's floor
My body hums like a thousand trains
I'm grinding with snakes while the vultures toil
I'd set myself on fire for some rain
I flee to the east and I flee to the west
Nothing moves but the shadows and the sun
I'm dying to leave but I've got no beef with the west because you know I am the beast of the east
Well I've got no sense of urgency
I've got no friends
So I'll just lock myself away inside this opium den
When they unhinge their jaws and swallow smoke
I'll wait for the storm
Then I'll arise and pack my bags and head for lines of the horse
The things I see in silence and the things I hear when blind
Can't compare to all the fingers that I'm feeling in my mind
It's stroking my brain
I can't remember my name
I've got to get out of this opium den...

Let us speak to you in private
Out on the sidewalk
We're about to steal the horses from underneath your hood
Then we really must be going
But if you need a ride
We'll gladly drop your body off in the woods
Thanks for understanding
This carjacking
It's time you really now just who we are
But that the next time that you see me
Please believe me
I'm coming straight for you and your car.

Hey, boy! Welcome to Moscow
You're going to help your comrades to prolong this war
'Cause I've been having dreams 8 bits at a time
And there's no way I'm going to let them take the Berlin Wall
Get out of line, we're going to roll you like a cigarette
Counting to five then your work will begin
You've got the brains and they've got the TVs
Going to hypnotize the kids so the Cold War won't end
Oh, Alexey! How will it end?
You were my hostage and now we are friends
Oh, Alexey! How will it end? Oh...
'Cause everybody knows you end up in gulag
If you spit on the sidewalk.
But that's not our concern anymore
Our concern anymore
