Hey hey hey. |

Hey hey hey |

Hey hey hey |
|
There lived a certain man in Russia long ago |
|
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow |
|
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear |
|
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear |
|
He could preach the Bible like a preacher |
|
Full of ecstacy and fire |
|
But he also was the kind of teacher |
|
Women would desire |
|
Ra ra Rasputin |
|
Lover of the Russian Queen |
|
There was a cat that really was gone |
|
Ra ra Rasputin |
|
Russia's greatest love machine |
|
It was a shame how he carried on |
|
He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Czar |
|
But the Kasachok he danced really wunderbar |
|
In all affairs of state he was the man to please |
|
But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze |
|
For the Queen he was no wheeler dealer |
|
Though she'd heard the things he'd done |
|
She believed he was a holy healer |
|
Who would heal her son |
|
Ra ra Rasputin |
|
Lover of the RussianQueen |
|
There was a cat that really was gone |
|
Ra ra Rasputin |
|
Russia's greatest love machine |
|
It was a shame how he carried on |
|
(But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger |
|
For power became known to more and more people |
|
The demands to do something about this outrageous |
|
Man became louder and louder) |
|
Hey hey hey |
|
Hey hey hey |
|
Hey hey hey |
|
\"This man's just got to go!\" declared his enemies |
|
But the ladies begged \"Don't you try to do it, please\" |
|
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms |
|
Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms |
|
Then one night some men of higher standing |
|
Set a trap, they're not to blame |
|
\"Come to visit us\" they kept demanding |
|
And he really came |
|
Ra ra Rasputin |
|
Lover of the Russian queen |
|
They put some poison into his wine |
|
Ra ra Rasputin |
|
Russia's greatest love machine |
|
He drank it all and said \"I feel fine\" |
|
Ra ra Rasputin |
|
Lover of the Russian Queen |
|
They didn't quit, they wanted his head |
|
Ra ra Rasputin |
|
Russia's greatest love machine |
|
And so they shot him till he was dead |
|
(Oh, those Russians) |
