Sting - Russians (en) Lyrics
- I've only rarely
sung this song
in the many years since
it was written
because I never thought it
would be relevant again,
but in the light
of one man's bloody
and woefully misguided decision
to invade a peaceful, unthreatening
neighbor,
the song is, once again, a plea
for our common humanity.
For the brave
Ukrainians fighting
against this brutal tyranny,
and also the many Russians who
are protesting this outrage
despite the threat of arrest
and imprisonment,
we all of us love our children.
Stop the war.
In Europe and America
There's a growing
feeling of hysteria
Conditioned to respond
to all the threats
In the rhetorical speeches
of the Soviets
Mister Khrushchev said,
We will bury you
I don't subscribe to
this point of view
It'd be such an
ignorant thing to do
If the Russians love their
children, too
How can I save my little boy
From Oppenheimer's
deadly toy
There is no monopoly
of common sense
On either side of
the political fence
We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love
their children, too
(gentle dramatic
music continues)
There is no
historical precedent
To put the words in the mouth
of the president
There's no such thing
as a winnable war
It's a lie we don't
believe anymore
And what might
save us, me and you
Is if the Russians love
their children, too
Please support me on PATREON Thank you!
