歌曲歌詞
This one is the story of Harry Pollitt
Harry Pollit was at one time
A very influential member
Of the Communist Party in England
Until he was finally throwm out
And when they threw him out
They wrote a song about him as if he were dead
And it goes like this
Harry Pollit was a work one of Lenin's lads
He was foully murdered by those counter revolutionary cads
Counter revolutionary cads counter revolutionary cads
He was foully murdered by those counter revolutionary cads
Old Harry went to heaven
He reached the gates with ease
Said May I speak with Comrade God
I am Harry Pollitt please
I'm Harry Pollitt please
I'm Harry Pollitt please
May I speak with Comrade God
I am Harry Pollitt please
Who are you said Saint Peter
Are you humble and contrite
I'm a friend of Lady Astors
Well
OK that's quite alright
OK that's quite alright well
OK that's alright
You're a friend of Lady Astor well
OK that's quite alright
They put him in the choir
But the hymns he did not like
So he organized the angels
And he led them out on strike
Led them out on strike
Led them out on strike
He organized the angels
And he led them out on strike
One day when God was walking
Around heaven to medidate
Who should he see
But Harry chalkin' slogans on the gate
Chalkin' slogans on the gate slogans on the gate
Who should he see
But Harry chalkin' slogans on the gate
Well they brought him up for trial
Before the Holy Ghost
For spreadin' disaffection
Amongst the heavenly hosts
Amongst the heavenly hosts
Amongst the heavenly hosts
For spreadin' disaffection
Amongst the heavenly hosts
Well the verdict it was guilty Harry said
Ah well
And he tucked his nightie 'round his knees
And he drifted down to hell
Yes he drifted down to hell
He drifted down to hell
He tucked his nightie 'round his knees
And he drifted down to hell
Now seven long years have passed
Harry's doing swell
He's just been made
The first people's commissar for soviet hell
Commissar of soviet hell commissar of soviet hell
He's just been made
The first people's commissar of soviet hell
Well the moral of this story
Is easy for to tell
If you want to be a bolshevik
You'll have to got to hell
You'll have to go to hell
Yes you'll have to go to hell
If you want to be a bolshevik
You'll have to go to hell
