Ra Ra Rasputin

Jefferson Starship

There lived a certian man, in Russia long ago,

He was big and strong, with his eyes of flaming gold.

Most people look 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 exstacy and fire.

But he also was the kind of teacher, women would desire.



Chorus:

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 Moved to Russian Land, and never mind the Czar

But the Kazachuk he danced really wundarbar.

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.



Chorus:

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.



Spoken:



"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 HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY



HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY

HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY HEY



"This wretch has got to go !!" declared his enemies.

But the ladies begged "Don't you try to do it, Please!!"



No doubt this Rasputin, has 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, as they kept demanding, and he really came!!



Chorus:



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,
