(Putin Girls) Putin if you put it when you Put it where you put it Putin if you put it Will you put it next to me? Putin if you put it when you Put it where you put it Putin if you put it Will you put it next to me? Now Putin hates the Putin girls ‘Cause he hates vulgarity And he loves his mother country And he loves his family He and his ex-wife Lyudmila Are riding along the shore Of the beautiful new Russian Black Sea Let’s listen in A great man is speaking We fought a war for this? I’m almost ashamed The Mediterranean Now there’s a resort worth fighting for If only the Greeks or the Turks Would start to sniff around I’d bring the hammer down So quick their woolly heads would spin Woolly head, woolly head, woolly head Or, wait a minute Even better What if the Kurds got in the way? Hey! Kurds and way, curds and whey! Sometimes a people is greater than their leader Germany, Kentucky, France Sometimes a leader towers over his country One shot at glory, they don’t get a second chance I dragged these peasants kicking and screaming Into the 21st century I thought they’d make it I must have been dreaming These chicken farmers and file clerks gonna be the death of me I can’t do it PG – Sure, you can I can’t do it PG- Yeah, you can What makes you say that girls? PG – Tell you why. ‘Cause you’re the Putin man Who whipped Napoleon? PG- We did! Who won World War II? PG- The Americans! That’s a good one ladies It’s our turn to sit in the comfy chair PG – And you’re the man gonna get us there! I don’t know, Lenin couldn’t do it I don’t know, Stalin couldn’t do it They couldn’t do it Why you think I can? PG – You’re gonna lead our people To the Promised Land You’re right, ‘cause, Goddamn, I’m the Putin Man #randynewman #darkmatter
