Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sweet communist, the communist daughter
Standing on the seaweed water
Semen stains the mountaintops
Semen stains the mountaintops
[Verse 2]
With cocoa leaves along the border
Sweetness swings from every corner
Cars careening from the clouds
The bridges burst and twist around
[Verse 3]
And wanting something warm and moving
Bends towards herself, the soothing
Proves that she must still exist
She moves herself about her fits
[Verse 4]
Sweet communist, the communist daughter
Standing on the seaweed water
Semen stains the mountaintops
Semen stains the mountaintops
