(Verse 1)
In the vast expanse of the digital sphere,
Tankies emerge, their motives unclear.
Authoritarian admiration, their chosen creed,
Ignoring the cries of those in need.
(Chorus)
Tankies, oh tankies, with views so extreme,
Is it not time to question your dream?
For in the pursuit of a utopian goal,
Must you pay such a terrible toll?
(Verse 2)
Born from the tanks that crushed Hungary's fight,
Their name echoes an era of fright.
Online they thrive, in denial they stand,
Ignoring the pain caused by the state's hand.
(Chorus)
Tankies, oh tankies, with views so extreme,
Is it not time to question your dream?
For in the pursuit of a utopian goal,
Must you pay such a terrible toll?
(Bridge)
Anarchist blood, a tale of old,
In the Spanish Civil War, a story bold.
Communist purge, a chilling sight,
Stalin's purges, in the dead of night.
(Chorus)
Tankies, oh tankies, with views so extreme,
Is it not time to question your dream?
For in the pursuit of a utopian goal,
Must you pay such a terrible toll?
(Verse 3)
Modern harass, in the digital age,
Tankies harass, their anger engage.
Anarchist communists, they threaten and attack,
A cycle of violence, a brutal fact.
(Chorus)
Tankies, oh tankies, with views so extreme,
Is it not time to question your dream?
For in the pursuit of a utopian goal,
Must you pay such a terrible toll?
(Verse 4)
Genocide apologia, a dangerous game,
Denying atrocities, shifting the blame.
Campism they support, without a doubt,
Even of regimes, socialism knows nought¹²³⁴.
(Chorus)
Tankies, oh tankies, with views so extreme,
Is it not time to question your dream?
For in the pursuit of a utopian goal,
Must you pay such a terrible toll?
(Outro)
So, let's stand for truth, for justice, for right,
And challenge the narratives that cloud our sight.
For in acknowledging the past, we find our way,
To a future where truth holds sway.
