Apparently
The former U.S.S.R.
Has too many men
Who prefer death
By vodka
To wedding them . . .

But tell me really
Mister Hopeful
Uncle Sam

Do you actually
Imagine if you think at all
You have to go all the way
To cold Moscow
To find Baba Yaga
For your home

Well in fact my friend
You need not have to
Go that far

There are
More than enough
Towns and regions
Already here

Where you will
Believe faithfully
After only
An hour or two

That Trotsky and Stalin
Fathered all the girls
