Dissolute Monk

I am like a Siberian tiger Creeping through taigas Looking for great power A letter arrived one evening Praising my hypnotic gaze And you craving a carnal touch I arrived with a prophecy My magic cured Tsarina’s son And led me up to autocracy You can shoot me, poison me But I will rise again, you will see The evil protects me eternally
