This is a tale of a ruler;
Vladimir Putin's his name.
Unlike a man with a conscience,
This one has no sense of shame.
His paranoia controls him.
His ego controls him as well.
Among our current world leaders,
We can find no parallel.
Running the world's largest country
Can be a challenge that's tough;
However, as large as it is,
To Putin it's not large enough.
So now he has sent Russian troops
Into the land of Ukraine.
Putin's great thirst for power
Is something that he can't contain.
Putin can't stand the idea
Of having a country next door
That's strong and democratic.
For him that's a reason for war.
And so he came up with excuses
To justify his attack.
How does one deal with a lying
Megalomaniac?
How many people will suffer?
How many people will die?
How many now will be homeless?
How many children will cry?
How many more dissenters
Will end up going to jail?
Which world democracies
Will Putin try to derail?
Who is the next to be poisoned
For speaking his or her mind?
With how many more rubles
Will Putin's pockets be lined?
Most of the world agrees
That Putin is clearly a brute.
Praise that day when the Russians
Finally give him the boot!
Yes, praise that day when the Russians
Finally give him the boot!
