So trouble comes strolling through the door
But anything worth having’s worth fighting for
Fiction or fact you’ll supply the plot
We’ll both be featured — like it or not
Yes I guess you think I’m stupid and brutal
I should confess that the feeling is mutual
It’s not between the devil and the deep blue see
Not between the truth and hypocrisy
Not between freedom and democracy…
But between you — between you…
Between you and me
Between you — between you…
Between you and me
The stars and stripes meet the hammer and sickle
Not for honour but roubles and nickles
It ain’t fisticuffs, it’s a full scale war
Your secrets no secret anymore
Yes I guess you think I’m stupid and brutal
I should confess that the feeling is mutual
It’s not between the devil and the deep blue see
Not between the truth and hypocrisy
Not between freedom and democracy…
But between you — between you…
Between you and me
Between you — between you…
Between you and me
So trouble comes strolling through the door…
