Russia celebrates victory over Nazism on the ninth of may
But there is just a few things that I would like to say
Victory over Ukraine they certainly won't be celebrating
And weapons to beat them we'll keep on supplying.
How can they be so proud of their murdering scum army
Who've been engaging in vile acts of sheer depravity
Their ship the Makarov has been hit, by a missile in the Black Sea
That had been landing troops and firing missiles, indiscriminately.
I read their T90 super duper-tank has taken a direct hit
Russia might be able to salvage some bits and do a refit
The Ukrainian army are turning, Russian equipment into scrap
It's hardly state of the art, more like a pile of cheap crap.
Putin employed Chechen thugs to make sure soldiers didn't desert
Then the Russian army turned on them and left them in the dirt
But many soldiers are deserting they have now seen the light
Making a laughing stock of Russia's, supposed military might.
So as Russians cheers on their victory parade in Red Square
Hundreds of people are dying but they don't really care
They're been fed daily via TV with propaganda and lies
The fact that many support Putin should come as no surprise.
I look forward to the day when Ukraine, will eventually be free
Both I and the civilised world will be cheering their victory
Russia will no longer be a threat having been weakened militarily
And will never again be able to impose their rule, on another forcibly.
