[Lyrics]
[Verse 1]
Standing outside on a kitchen floor
Love utensils in the palm of her hand
Saluting supermarket majorettes
We understand

[Verse 2]
Oh, muzak for digital clocks
Departmental stores, vacate no sound
Exchanging surgical appliances
On hired ground

[Chorus]
And love blows through Rhodesia
And love blows through Rhodesia

[Verse 3]
Soldierettes marching in the parking lot
Bleach your body, be proof to the fact
Moving out in all directions
And turning back

[Verse 4]
Oh, heartaches from Amsterdam
Masturbated over jilted bouquets
Approximation's counting on a freight line
We pull away

[Chorus]
And love blows through Rhodesia
And love blows through Rhodesia

[Verse 5]
Oh, Nazis in full attack
Burning niggers in a cotton field
Service stations offer promises
And promises offer me

[Chorus]
And love blows through Rhodesia
And love blows through Rhodesia
