Neon Neon - Dr. Zhivago lyrics

When I was young I didn't know my left from right My parents kept me prisoner from love And as I grew up I noticed how some lives are born Into suffering and tragedy Fighting for my country against fascism and cruelty Then I saw the workers plight Came to me in pieces, building up a thesis Rome wasn't built over night Dr. Zhivago I'm just waiting for my cold embargo To be lifted and I'll bathe in your success and golden light Cold war dictator I once believed but now I can't accept you How you treated Pasternak and Hungary – you upset me 1956 turned to ‘57 I was still a party animal But not for long There had to be a better way To get our point across So Justice could prevail today Dr. Zhivago I'm just waiting for my cold embargo To be lifted and I'll publish all your man*scripts tonight Cold war dictator I once believed but now I can't accept you How you treated Pasternak and Hungary – you upset me
