Red Day

A Revolutionary Swede

Written by Steve Wallis, 17/9/2008

Dedicated to Christina (an anarchist from Sweden)

 

One day, I met a wonderful Swede
A campaigner against big business greed
Who planted many a revolutionary seed
A wonderful woman, indeed!

To stay in touch, I did plead
A new best friend, I may need
To do many a revolutionary deed
Until the world is freed

But she had a boyfriend
To chat her up, I did intend
Revolutionary ideas, we’d defend
My lonely heart, I thought she’d mend

The world, big business will not feed
Our ideas, the masses could heed
I loved that revolutionary Swede
And sang: “maybe, one day, we’ll breed!”

I have recorded the song as a musical poem, in MP3 format.
