Lyrics of ' Russian Ship ' by The Frank And Walters

RUSSIAN SHIP

There's a Russian ship out lost at sea in changing times
There's a lonely tide that brings to mind the days gone by
And the simple fact that leads me back is that no one cared
There's a Russian ship out lost at sea and I feel scared

And look now, look there's another book
And look now, there's a story
That in Kiev they were tearing down statues

Tzaralena where's our world gone
Tzaralena where's our home gone
Mother Russia's out there sinking
And the Western world is thinking
That we're better off than what we were

And the Russian ship that's lost at sea is fading fast
Cos the man who tried the changing winds, has burst its mast
As I think about what's left and how it's come to this
And there's shame inside cos I denied the days I miss

And look, now look there's another book
And look now there's a person, says he's Russian
And he once defied Lenin

Tzaralena where's our world gone
Tzaralena where's our home gone
Mother Russia's out there sinking
And the Western world is thinking
That we're better off than what we were

Do you think we'll ever be happy here
In a come what may
Do you think we'll ever be satisfied
Living life this way?

Tzaralena where's our world gone
Tzaralena where's our home gone
Mother Russia's out there sinking
And the Western world is thinking
That we're better off than what we were
