I'm sick of working on the land
I wanna work with machines and look handsome
I have been indulging
in ostentatious display
doing little more than eat
three square meals a day
And I've been shirking my duty
so I've been sending gifts to curry favour
But because I love you
and because you love me
a model worker
I'II willingly be
I need a holiday, I've not been well
take me to the Brocade River Hotel
And I just want to know
while the revolution lasts
will it enable me
to swallow broken glass!
I'm not too worried by hegemony
I know the cadre will look after me
And I just want to know while the revolution lasts
will it enable me to swallow broken glass!
I have been indulging in ostentatious display
doing little more than eat three square meals a day
But because I love you ..
