A COLD WIND CRACKS THE TREES TONIGHT
AND THERE'S A RUMBLE FROM THE WEST
AN ACRID SMOKE HIDES THE MIDNIGHT SUN
IT'S THE TRANS-SIBERIAN EXPRESS
AND THE PAGES FROM THE GULAG ARCHIPELAGO
ARE ETCHED UPON THEIR MINDS
AS THEY STEP INSIDE THIS FROZEN HELL
TIME JUST STANDS SO STILL
AND THE MUSCOVITE OLIGARCHS
SIP FINE WINE
SWORN TO KEEP OLD MOTHER RUSSIA CLEAN
SWORN TO KEEP OLD MOTHER RUSSIA CLEAN
A HOT WIND BLOWS IN THE TEXAS HEAT
AND A BUS ROLLS IN FROM THE EAST
THE HEAT WAVES BLUR THE DESERT SCAPE
BUT THERE'S A GAURD TOWER IN FULL SIGHT
AND THE PAGES FROM IN THE BELLY OF THE BEAST
ARE ETCHED UPON THEIR MINDS
AS THEY STEP INSIDE THIS BURNING HELL
TIME JUST STANDS SO STILL
AND THE HOUSTON EVANGELISTS
SIP FINE WINE
SWORN TO KEEP THE OLD SOUTH PURE AND CLEAN
SWORN TO KEEP THE OLD SOUTH PURE AND CLEAN
AND BOTH MEN DREAM OF A BETTER LIFE
BUT THEY WONT COME OUT ALIVE
THEY BOTH OFFENDED CHURCH AND STATE
THEY WERE BOTH BROUGHT HERE TO DIE
AND THE PAGES FROM THE NATIONS NEWS
ARE ETCHED UPON THE PUBLIC MIND
THE OTHER SUPER POWER MUST CHANGE IT'S WAY
FOR THE SAKE OF HUMANITY
AND THE MUSCOVITE OLIGARCHS
SIP FINE WINE
AND THE HOUSTON EVANGELISTS SIP FINE WINE
WHILE THE UNDESIRABLE ROTT INSIDE
Welcome to this life young one
and to a world thats come undone
your innocence makes us ashamed
But don't you get too comfortable son
because it's soon to end though it's just begun
you better learn to seize the day
New life - Old lie
Maybe you'll find Jesus Christ
as a means to mend this fractured life
gonna be deceived either way
so try not to grow up like us
cold like us lost like us
try to find a dream try to find a way
