I like Joemomma's interpretation that it is a historical song about Russian politcs (the album is called Soviet Kitsch afterall). The "heros" of one day became the "enemies of the revolution" the next.
I like the humor in the song, the resigned attitude that the subjects seem to have to their fate. "They;ll give us a talking to, cause they've got years of experience" and I love how Regina plays on the "US" at the end of the word "Contagious" in a song called "us."
