I hope to put a nail in the coffin that is communism. Dedicated to ringo of Saskatchewan
Why? What has communism got to do with me?

What's going on? Where are all the friends I had?
It's all wrong, I'm feeling lost like I just don't belong.
Give me back, give me back my Leningrad."

Interesting band...
Look up their rendition of Tom Jones' Delilah on YouTube. Also, try to find their movie, Leningrad Cowboys Go America.
