Two-headed dog… two headed dog
I've been working in the kremlin
With a two-headed dog
Peace brought back fought back
Relaxed be nyet brought back
Did you dry her out
Wind her out like jerky?
To me she's healed to attack
Two-headed dog… two headed dog
I've been working in the kremlin
With a two-headed dog
Children nailed to the cross
Pain does not look our hell
Certainly is not a spell
Sweet waste from a well
Two-headed dog… two headed dog
I've been working in the kremlin
With a two-headed dog
Winds quiet in the night
Her body just blows messiah
Sickening sweet sight left or right
Is all right does not please my appetite
Two-headed dog… two headed dog
I've been working in the kremlin
With a two-headed dog
Two-headed dog… two headed dog
I've been working in the kremlin
With a two-headed dog
