Cari compagni comunisti, o comunque gentili signori, questo è il primo articolo di una serie che si prospetta ardua e discontinua. Esaminando il sito, io e Karl Liebknecht abbiamo dedicato particolare attenzione a certe pagine, e ci è parso che la dottrina comunista, più che essere esaltata da (presunti) seguaci di Marx ed Engels, venisse in realtà derisa. La lega di Spartaco, invece, vuole proporre una riflessione sui possibili tentativi di divulgazione del pensiero di estrema sinistra, condividendo, inoltre, le prese in giro ai tragici regimi di Stalin, Mao e degli altri dittatori, degenerazioni degne della barbarie nazifascista che col vero socialismo non hanno nulla a che fare. Partiamo da un presupposto: Lenin si sbagliava nel voler manovrar il movimento operaio tramite un partito ben organizzato, e difatti è successo quel che è successo; bisogna, invece, che sia ben organizzata la massa stessa.
Ecco il punto del presente articolo: io e gli altri membri spartachisti, dopo esserci debitamente documentati, abbiamo scoperto un interessante genere musicale, il punk; abbiamo realizzato che tende ad essere politicamente colorato, e che, se traghettato nelle giuste direzioni, potrebbe offrire un contributo importante alla nostra causa. Tuttavia, ci duole constatare come oggigiorno il mondo occidentale sia preda di una religione nota come capitalismo, il cui dio è il denaro, e come il suddetto sistema sia un cancro che si riproduce indefinitamente (la cattiva infinità del maestro Hegel) e infetta le menti delle persone, piallando le loro idee e annichilendo le loro esistenze. Pertanto, consci che la massa va sensibilizzata, riteniamo che, essendo essa perlopiù avvezza a un tipo di musica noto come "pop", il primo passo sia quello di pubblicizzare determinati lavori, come quello che qui presento, che stiano in una sorta di limbo tra i due generi: trattasi del "pop-punk". Questo disco, ad esempio, è chiaramente punk, ma, a giudizio di noi spartachisti, le melodie perlopiù orecchiabili e la voce particolare del cantante possono renderlo adatto a rientrare in tale categoria. Dopo alcuni lavori di simil fattura, che vi invito caldamente a consigliare alle persone a voi più vicine, ne dovranno seguire altri più palesemente orientati verso il punk di sinistra: questo sarà di basilare importanza per stimolare, se promossi nel modo opportuno, una scintilla di pensiero critico nella massa, che così potrà, con altri numerosi accorgimenti ed interventi, essere condotta verso la rivoluzione spontanea che noi della lega di Spartaco auspichiamo.
Cordiali Saluti, Rosa Luxemburg.

01 Fast Cars (02:26)
They're nice and precise, each one begins and ends
They may win you admirers, but they'll never earn you friends
Fast cars, fast cars
Fast cars, I hate fast cars
They're so depressing going around and around
Ooh, they make me dizzy, oh fast cars they run me down
Fast cars, fast cars,
Fast cars, I hate fast cars
Sooner or later, you're gonna listen to Ralph Nader
I don't wanna cause a fuss, but fast cars are so dangerous
Fast cars, fast cars
Fast cars, I hate fast cars, fast cars
Fast cars, fast cars
I hate fast cars

03 You Tear Me Up (02:27)
Well I know it's the night
but have you gotta beat the daylights out of me
I'm getting so god-damned bruised
I'll soon be softer than a stoned cherry
And when you let your flesh creep over me
you know I don't know what's come over me
something about the way you drool and kiss
makes love seem nothing like this
You tear me up
you grab what's mine
you tear me up
every single time
you tear me up
what a hideous crime
you tear me up
you're a bloody swine
All this slurping and sucking
you know it's putting me off my food
you're noisier than a motorway
and about two times - three times as rude
You know you got such big eyes
they make me feel so small
my heart is only one mouthful
but you - you can have it all
You're just as hard as a pavement
and I don't know where my passion went
you think that maybe I could walk on you
you'd make a damned good anaesthetic - I'll say that for you
04 Get on Our Own (02:26)
Honey I saw you yesterday
On my way home
Baby I craved for you today
So I decided to phone
So why don't we get together soon
And er get on our own
Just think of what me and you could do
If we get on our own
If we could get on our own
If we could get on our own
Honey I saw you again today
And I er liked what I saw
So why don't meet tonight
Then I could er see a bit more
So how's about we get together soon
Well why be alone
Just think of what me and you could do
If we get on our own
If we could get on our own
If we could get on our own
Just think of it
Me and you
Us together
Yes just we two
Think of all the things
That me and you could do
If we get on our own
If we could get on our own
If we could get on our own
Just me and you
Ah
07 I Don't Mind (02:18)
Reality's a dream
A game in which I seem
To never find out just what I am
I don't know if I'm an actor or ham
A shamen or sham
But if you don't mind
I don't mind
I'm lost without a clue
So how can I undo
The tangle of these webs I keep weaving
I don't know if I should be believing
Deceptive perceiving
But if you don't mind
I don't mind
I used to bet that you didn't care
But gambling never got me anywhere
Each time I used to feel so sure
Something about you made me doubt you more
How can you convince me
When everything I see
Just makes me feel you're putting me down
And if it's true this pathetic clown'll
Keep hanging around
That's if you don't mind
I don't mind
I used to bet that you didn't care
But gambling never got me anywhere
Each time I used to be so sure
Something about you made me doubt you more
I even think you hate me when you call me on the phone
And sometimes when we go out I wish I'd stayed at home
And when I'm dreaming or just lying in my bed
I think you've got it in for me
Is it all in my head is it in my head
How can you convince me
When everything I see
Just makes me feel you're putting me down
And if it's true this pathetic clown'll
Keep hanging around
That's if you don't mind
I don't mind
I don't mind
08 Fiction Romance (04:27)
A fiction romance
I love this love story
That never seems to happen in my life
A fiction romance
All love and glory
That never seems to happen in my life
Dreams of love and dreams of pain
And dreams again again again
A gain which can be yours just by taking hold
Dreams that I can realize
Are quite contained within your eyes
Say fiction romance is not so old
A fiction romance
The love of the ages
That never seems to matter in my life
A fiction romance
On magazine pages
That never seems to feature in my life
Dreaming scheming unaware
That quite somewhere some unaware folk
Are not thinking 'bout what they have been told
Something strange is happening to
The way I see the world I view
That fiction romance is not sold
As a fiction romantic
I never expected
All these things to happen in real life
And no fiction romantic
Could ever've predicted
All the things that happen in my life
When I don't know what to do
I just think about me and you
If I was a little stronger then I'd be bold
Something strange is happening to me
I don't know what these shivers mean to you
Is this fiction romance getting hold
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance
Fiction romance

11 Moving Away From the Pulsebeat (07:01)
You said the things you did in the past
Were all because you're living too fast
But now I'm here you're taking it slow
You know what you know you know you know now
I only want to be with you
You do you do you do you do too
You do you do you do you do too
But I'm so happy just to be with you
I knew what you knew what you knew you knew too
Ah
You said that time you didn't love me
Although I'd been the cutest you'd seen
But would the past have changed even though
You know what you know you know you know now
I only want you by my side
Some kinds of pride I just can't hide
Some kinds of pride just can't be denied
But I know that oh no no no
