Our Holidays by Felix Gorelik On holidays that we observe here OCTOBER, our birthday, stands out. If workers would only surge forward We'd show all what it's all about. If only once again we'd hear it, —Our slogans in a thunderous roar— "All power to the working people The bourgeois, bankers we abhor." How all reasoning was deadened Is really hard to comprehend; What took years of hard construction Bankers took all free in the end. For them its banks, hotels and factories Casinos, gardens and green grass; For us its unemployment, slavery With death staring at us through glass. Remember former celebrations? Adorned with flowers, finery? We looked ahead with expectations, We were a force, as strong as can be While celebrating we did not notice How water flowed out bit by bit; How the people were all changing, How they built a large snake pit. How the Party all got mildewed, Replacing the Bolshevik thought. How the snouts began appearing, High office for themselves begot. All peoples' reasoning they deadened With every poison that they know; A noose around October tightened By Judas "leader' Gorbachev. Will people everywhere accept it? Will be like cattle always been? I'm sure there'll be one more upheaval: A great--colossal--SEVENTEEN!!!
