There’s Not Enough Death and Destruction for Some.

There ain’t no disputin’
That Vladimir Putin
Is mad as he could be
He’s sent soldiers shootin’
And raping and lootin’
To end all liberty
If you’re not a Russian
And spend your life gushin’
That Vladimir is great
Your life must need flushin’
Your speeches need hushin’
Your name begins “The Late”
A massive invasion
Is gentle persuasion
“Will only take three days
Their may be abrasion
And slight approbation
But they’ll accept our ways”
“They didn’t embrace us?
Were ready to face us
There forces better than ours
But while they can chase us
They’ll never replace us
We’re safe in our ivory towers”
The bodies lie scattered
Our image is shattered
The World won’t wear this game
The standards that mattered
Are terribly tattered
But Putin knows no shame
So thousands are dying
The death we’re supplying
The price of Putin’s pride
Russian mothers are crying
The World’s busy WHYing
Vladimir won’t be denied.
Author notes
Approximately to the tune “Blaze Away” a brass and military band favourite, if
you do not know it : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTNkaumX-VQ
Although it really needs a much more tragic tune.
