Welcome to Stalingrad - Montt Mardié, TIAC

It burns so hard, you wave them off I look to the sky

I know my rights that you can’t press charges against your own life

Wish I could save you (darling!) I can’t even write you (darling!)

Is this my life?

if tomorrow comes i’ll turn 25

Welcome to Stalingrad baby everybody’s proud you came

Do it for Stalingrad baby every street will have your name

I close my eyes I count to ten but you’re never found

I spend my time reading the books that kept us alive

Like Mayakovsky (darling!) or Douglas Coupland (darling!)

The snow falls down I light a candle until you’re found

Welcome to Stalingrad baby things will never be the same

Do it for Stalingrad baby every girl will scream your name

Welcome to Stalingrad baby

Welcome to Stalingrad baby everybody’s proud you came

Do it for Stalingrad baby every street will have your name

One last request please wear that dress when we say goodbye

I cannot stay, a hundred boys just called my name

They were polite now (darling!) they look so proud now (darling!)

I have to go back to where Easter flowers grow

Welcome to Stalingrad baby calling me home

Welcome to Stalingrad baby this is where I belong
