《Leningrad》歌词

[00:00:22] Viktor was born in the spring of '44

[00:00:28] And never saw his father anymore

[00:00:36] A child of sacrifice a child of war

[00:00:42] Another son who never had a father after Leningrad

[00:00:49] Went off to school and learned to serve the state

[00:00:56] Followed the rules and drank his vodka straight

[00:01:03] The only way to live was drown the hate

[00:01:10] A Russian life was very sad

[00:01:14] And such was life in Leningrad

[00:01:20] I was born in '49

[00:01:23] A cold war kid in McCarthy time

[00:01:27] Stop 'em all at the 38th Parallel

[00:01:32] Blast those yellow reds to hell

[00:01:34] And cold war kids were hard to kill

[00:01:38] Under their desks in an air raid drill

[00:01:42] Haven't they heard we won the war

[00:01:44] What do they keep on fighting for

[00:01:50] Viktor was sent to some Red Army town

[00:01:57] Served out his time became a circus clown

[00:02:03] The greatest happiness he'd ever found

[00:02:11] Was making Russian children glad

[00:02:15] And children lived in Leningrad

[00:02:20] But children lived in Levittown

[00:02:24] And hid in the shelters underground

[00:02:27] Until the Soviets turned their ships around

[00:02:30] And tore the Cuban missiles down

[00:02:34] And in that bright October sun

[00:02:37] We knew our childhood days were done

[00:02:41] And I watched my friends go off to war

[00:02:44] What do they keep on fighting for

[00:02:51] And so my child and I came to this place

[00:02:56] To meet him eye to eye and face to face

[00:03:00] He made my daughter laugh then we embraced

[00:03:11] We never knew what friends we had

[00:03:16] Until we came to Leningrad
