Czech Locomotive

(album: 9 - 2021)

Sweet Dana and the Czech Locomotive
The locomotive with pistons of steam
Throwing cupids arrows at each other across the frozen park
After sentry duty in the dark
Stuck on the asphalt with the team
All Dana could do was cry
The StB won't silence the dream
If Standa's not coming then neither will I

Can we still run under the freezing shadow of a 30 metre Stalin?
His face twisted, hurting
He burst through the iron curtain
With Dana on his back with a quiver of darts
Steaming and dreaming all across the frozen park

In war and peace and frozen weather
Put your fingertips and your thumb together
Put your lover on your back and run into the night
And forget about the burning trees in the East and forests in the West
And blackened sky and sun like a, sun like a, sun like a bloodshot eye up there
And we're right here
Happy New Year, too bad it's covered in smoke

Sweet Dana and the Czech Locomotive
Sweet Dana and the Czech Locomotive
Sweet Dana and the Czech Locomotive
Sweet Dana and the Czech Locomotive

Sweet Dana and the Czech Locomotive
Sweet Dana and the Czech Locomotive
Sweet Dana and the Czech Locomotive
Sweet Dana and the Czech Locomotive

Can we still run under the freezing shadow of a 30 metre Stalin?
His face twisted, hurting
He burst through the iron curtain
With Dana on his back with a quiver of darts
Steaming and dreaming all across the frozen park
