Getting High in Dubai - Revolutionaries

My fair disgruntled comrade
Meeting me for expresso in Carlsbad
Our plans to erect monuments unraveled

We were both going to be revolutionaries
Misquoting Marx and drunk on cheap sherry
We were both going to be revolutionaries
Getting drunk to destroy the patriarchy
We were young we were wild revolutionaries

When did idealism unravel
Statuesque futures turned to gravel
My first office job you said I was elitist
When inside I was feeling defeated
We had just moved in together
Couldn't move again in December Calgary weather

We were both going to be revolutionaries
Misquoting Marx and drunk on cheap sherry
We were young we were wild revolutionaries
Shoplifting high to destroy the patriarchy
Bold and beautiful together revolutionaries
We were both going to be revolutionaries

The night I found out you cheated on me
Even though we both said we practice polyamory
It stung a hive of bees
When you said you're no longer in love with me
Were we ever sincere did we ever believe
Two brokenhearted revolutionaries

We were both going to be revolutionaries
We were both going to be revolutionaries
Misquoting Marx and drunk on cheap sherry
We were young we were wild revolutionaries
We were both going to be revolutionaries
Shoplifting high to stop the patriarchy
We were young we were wild revolutionaries
