There’s Not Enough Death and Destruction for Some.

\nThere ain’t no disputin’
\nThat Vladimir Putin
\nIs mad as he could be
\nHe’s sent soldiers shootin’
\nAnd raping and lootin’
\nTo end all liberty<\/p>\n
If you’re not a Russian
\nAnd spend your life gushin’
\nThat Vladimir is great
\nYour life must need flushin’
\nYour speeches need hushin’
\nYour name begins “The Late”<\/p>\n
A massive invasion
\nIs gentle persuasion
\n“Will only take three days
\nTheir may be abrasion
\nAnd slight approbation
\nBut they’ll accept our ways”<\/p>\n
“They didn’t embrace us?
\nWere ready to face us
\nThere forces better than ours
\nBut while they can chase us
\nThey’ll never replace us
\nWe’re safe in our ivory towers”<\/p>\n
The bodies lie scattered
\nOur image is shattered
\nThe World won’t wear this game
\nThe standards that mattered
\nAre terribly tattered
\nBut Putin knows no shame<\/p>\n
So thousands are dying
\nThe death we’re supplying
\nThe price of Putin’s pride
\nRussian mothers are crying
\nThe World’s busy WHYing
\nVladimir won’t be denied.<\/p>\n
Author notes
\nApproximately to the tune “Blaze Away” a brass and military band favourite, if
\nyou do not know it : https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=aTNkaumX-VQ<\/p>\n
Although it really needs a much more tragic tune.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
