about

Written in late Feb. 2022 about Ukraine in the wake of the violent and unjustified invasion of Ukraine by Russia

lyrics

Ukraine, you’ve got trouble again
Bloodstains and a bear at the door
insane, Putin and his oligarchs
crazy enough to start a war

Ukraine, a troubled history
A terrain that tyrants desire
Gas mains and natural resources
A recipe for a land on fire

Whats gonna happen
Damned if I know
Is it possible
All of Europe will blow?
(Who knows?)

Ukraine, you’ve got a checkered past
Not always such a friendly place for Jews
My late mother in law, hiding in the forest
While some Ukrainians helped the Nazis during world war two

Ukraine, has come a long way
The current president is Jewish by birth
An independent country since 1991,
But Putin’s madness threatens everyone on earth

(c) M. Skliar 2022
