Sting's song-Russians lyrics
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
Mr. Krushchev said we will bury you
I don't subscribe to this point of view
It would be such an ignorant thing to do
If the Russians love their children too

How can I save my little boy from Oppenheimers deadly toy
There is no monopoly in 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

There is no historical precedent
To put the words in the mouth of the president
There's no such thing as a winnable war
Its a lie that we don't believe anymore
Mr. Reagan says we will protect you
I don't subscribe to this point of view
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russians love their children too

We share the same biology
Regardless of ideology
What might save us, me, and you
Is that the Russians love their children too

Hoped you liked it subscribe if you did :)

  • Great song! 

  • i love this song

    this is the best song ever !!!!!

  • @xskullxkissesx : Yes I agree Russians are beautiful and smart people but there is the element of corruption through secret underworld societies in Russian and the USA which will end it all. We must pray for each other that we can survive this world wide phase of corruptions which create war by elites.

  • @subatan I'm so behind you. I really blame American text books for brainwashing American students into thinking that Russians are still communists :( It was trashed in the 1990s damn it! Us Russians are beautiful people :D

  • "Khrushchev remarked in his speech in Yugoslavia, "I once said, 'We will bury you,' and I got into trouble with it. Of course we will not bury you with a shovel. Your own working class will bury you,"[5] a reference to the Marxist saying, "The proletariat is the undertaker of capitalism"" (wikipedia about "We will bury you").

    Don't know who's right I'm just pointing that out

  • I will always remember this period as feeding fear into our brains. I was 12-13 at the time, the lyrics weren't censored either way here in Western Europe, but I was very impressed by this song. Still is very impressive. But one is not much of a critic, at 13, and I was very nervous about that tension. Little did I know, that part of it, was part of a play that had to be performed by politicians. Thx for the upload.

  • @metthaw Yeah, too bad to U.S. aired it on T.V. and they translated it wrong on purpose to make it seem like he said "We will make your children Communists". :( Don't get me wrong, I'm Russian and love the U.S. but that's kinda sad.

    We drink Vodka together, yes?

  • hey guys, instead of fighting, listen to the part of the song that says we share the same biology regardless of ideology

  • It's in past already. Now russians hate their govermen more than anything and just try to survive.

    (Another one Russian)

  • The Russophobia is the unwarranted fear,the hatred and the despise towards Russians.Same with the Serbophobia,the unwarranted fear the hatred and the despise towards Serbs.
