[THE AMERICAN]
Communist, democrat
An intriguing collusion
Fair exchange, tit for tat
Comradeship in profusion
And the appeal, partner
Of this deal, partner
Is we all stand to win
You and me, the lady also
Don't break her heart, partner
Just be smart, partner
Let her think that her past
Is as pure as snow in Moscow
Thank God we're so civilized
And our words can be our bond
We can turn this into friendship for life
And beyond—
[THE RUSSIAN]
Refugee, total shit
Is how I've always seen us
Not a help, you'll admit
To agreement between us
There's no deal, partner
Who's your real partner?
Could there be just a chance
That you've got some heavy clients?
