Russian Soldier
(c) Danny Chicago

They send you off to die and spill your Russian blood
for billionaires with yachts and private planes
Who take away your freedom, but send you off to kill
your brothers and sisters in Ukraine
 
Russian soldier turn your gun around
And point it at the one who sent you here
The one who’ll watch you die from his mansion way on high
The enemy of Russia’s very clear.
 
The people of your country don't want this useless war
They march into the streets and make it clear
They want to live in peace and freedom just like you
In a world without their government to fear
 
Russian soldier turn your gun around
And point it at the one who sent you here
The one who’ll watch you die from his mansion way on high
The enemy of Russia’s very clear.
 
So many other countries have done the same its true
Profiting from cruel and deadly wars
They watch their profits rise while young men fall and die
Let’s not fight their battles anymore
 
Russian soldier turn your gun around
And point it at the one who sent you here
The one who’ll watch you die from his mansion way on high
The enemy of Russia’s very clear.
