Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Aug. 21, 2013]

Combustion, suggestions, roaring engines
Jewels and lathes that build a world
Titanic, Howard Hughes, an aimless king
Always spoilin' the best things you done

So red squares and wavy leaves
Delicate glass kisses, delicate lips
Russian autumn heart
Russian autumn heart

Testin', digressin', fallin' to the earth
Red-hot spaceships with soil so rich
A trillion pennies for a handful of dust
A sight only witnessed by a mountain of ice

So red squares and wavy leaves
Sibling link meets Manchurian mink
Russian autumn heart
Russian autumn heart

Combustion, suggestions, roaring engines
Jewels and lathes that rule the world
Titanic and Howard Hughes, an aimless king
Always spoilin' the best things you done

So red squares and wavy leaves
Delicate glass kisses, delicate lips
Russian autumn heart
Russian autumn heart
Russian autumn heart
Russian autumn heart
