Comrade Nightingale - Solovey Lyrics

Solovey - fly away
Or get hit by a stray bullet in your brain
Territorial disputes
Send your children off to war
Make them lick boots
Met a friend
Full of sunshine
He liked plants and history and drinking wine
Studied archaeology
Cheerful excavator of ancient cities
Slaughtered sheep
Down by the river
Moonshine flowing
Pink-faced laughter
This is living
Balmy-blue Azeri night
Now a symphony of birdsong takes flight
Oh nightingale sing your song
Maybe one day we can get along
Your music could be eternal
But no one writes to the colonel
Solovey - fly away
Or get hit by a stray bullet in your brain
Territorial disputes
Send your children off to war
Make them lick boots
Armed and gunned up
Occupied
Combat clothes - now strike a pose
While your peers die
Forced conscription
Time to fight
Brutal might does not make right
No end in sight
Blood and putrid smell of flesh
Mixed with dust and screams
You won't forget the stench
Blinding light
Bone-breaking blast
Say goodbye
Now this thought is your last
Oh nightingale sing your song
Parents bury their kids
It's all wrong
Your music should've been eternal
But no one writes to the colonel
Solovey - fly away
Or get hit by a stray bullet in your brain
Territorial disputes
Send your children off to war
Make them lick boots
How many more must die
In this needless violent land-grab
So contrived
Pawns expended by the ruling class
Take imperialist warmongering to its max
They had names
They had lives
Stolen from them
By your lies
They had names
They had lives
Stolen from them by your lies
Solovey - uletay
Pesnyu poy - ne pogibay
Solovey - pesnyu poy
My s toboy idem na boy
Solovey - uletay
Pesnyu poy - ne pogibay
Solovey - pesnyu poy
My s toboy
Idem na boy
