[Verse 1: Stuart Tosh]
There's a fat man who offers a change of scene
Says he'll guarantee my sheet will be clean
When I get on the outside
But who can you trust when the walls have ears
I'm for takin' a chance, like a drownin' man
I'm going under
[Chorus: Stuart Tosh & Eric Stewart]
I've got Reds in my bed
I'm not easily led to the slaughter
And while the cold war exists
I'll stay warm with the commissar's daughter
[Verse 2: Stuart Tosh]
We could meet at the zoo where the tiger roams
In a prison of steel
He reminds me so much of the way I feel
And we know that we're both in the danger zone
Where the eyes of the world
Full of shutters and bugs are upon us now
[Chorus: Stuart Tosh & Eric Stewart]
I've got Reds in my bed
I get blues looking out of my window
And we're never alone, there's a tap on the phone
And my pillow
[Post-Chorus: Stuart Tosh & Eric Stewart]
Let me go home
There's a girl in a distant land
Let me go home
Who's nothing more than a memory, mmm
She don't know that I'm gonna get free
Let me go home
You're a land full of misery
Let me go home
You're a cruel and a faceless race
I don't like your philosophy
I don't like your philosophy
Ooh
[Verse 3: Stuart Tosh]
The connections are made and the time is right
So my body is walled in the shell of a car
In the dead of night
And I laugh through the pain and the agony
As they cut me away to be born again
Back to humanity
[Chorus: Stuart Tosh & Eric Stewart]
You've got Reds in your beds
There's a man lookin' over your shoulder
But don't you give him your mind
It's too late when you find that it's over
You!
[Post-Chorus: Stuart Tosh, Eric Stewart & (Graham Gouldman)]
Let me go home
You're a land full of misery
Let me go home
You're nothing more than a memory
I don't like your philosophy
Let me go home (Won't you let me, let me go home)
You're a cruel and a faceless race
Let me go home (Won't you let me, let me go home)
You're nothing more than a memory
I don't like your philosophy
Let me go home (Won't you let me, let me go home)
You're a land full of misery
Let me go home (Won't you let me, let me go home)
You're nothing more than a memory
I don't like your philosophy
Let...
