Lyrics

0:50There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
0:53He was big and strong in his eyes a flaming glow
0:58Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
1:01But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
1:05He could preach the Bible like a preacher
1:09Full of ecstacy and fire
1:13But he also was the kind of teacher
1:16Women would desire
1:20Ra ra Rasputin
1:22Lover of the Russian Queen
1:24There was a cat that really was gone
1:28Ra ra Rasputin
1:30Russia's greatest love machine
1:32It was a shame how he carried on
1:53He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Czar
1:56But the Kasachok he danced really wunderbar
2:00In all affairs of state he was the man to please
2:03But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze
2:08For the Queen he was no wheeler dealer
2:11Though she'd heard the things he'd done
2:15She believed he was a holy healer
2:19Who would heal her son
2:23Ra ra Rasputin
2:25Lover of the RussianQueen
2:27There was a cat that really was gone
2:30Ra ra Rasputin
2:32Russia's greatest love machine
2:35It was a shame how he carried on
2:42But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger
2:45For power became known to more and more people
2:49The demands to do something about this outrageous
2:52Man became louder and louder
2:55Hey
3:18This man's just got to go declared his enemies
3:21But the ladies begged Don't you try to do it please
3:25No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
3:29Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms
3:33Then one night some men of higher standing
3:37Set a trap they're not to blame
3:40Come to visit us they kept demanding
3:44And he really came
3:48Ra ra Rasputin
3:50Lover of the Russian queen
3:52They put some poison into his wine
3:56Ra ra Rasputin
3:57Russia's greatest love machine
4:00He drank it all and said I feel fine
4:05Ra ra Rasputin
4:07Lover of the Russian Queen
4:09They didn't quit they wanted his head
4:13Ra ra Rasputin
4:14Russia's greatest love machine
4:17And so they shot him till he was dead
4:22Oh those Russians
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
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
