Motherland Blues

Motherland Blues

So you left the Motherland, off to kill a “Nazi” or two.

Funny that all of those “Nazis” are bravely led by a Jew.

So you strapped on your boots and your gun for the three day operation,

Too bad Russki, you opted for a permanent vacation.

Oh to be a Russian, pretending to live in riches and swank.

Oh to be an invader on Ukraine soil, burning to death in your tank.

They have the upper hand,

You’re on sovereign land,

And for that you have your Putin to thank.

So there you are, a rotting corpse so fetid, smelly and dank,

Perhaps you would have been better off on the Moskva when it sank?

This war of yours is stupid and costly, if I may be all that frank,

Ukraine will continue to be well supplied, on that you bet you can bank.

Oh to be a Russian, pretending to live in riches and swank.

Oh to be an invader on Ukraine soil, burning to death in your tank.

They have the upper hand,

You’re on sovereign land,

And for that you have your Putin to thank.
