Burn the shop with the American shit! Advertise the hard-currency store with a brick! Blow up with a grenade their pretty Chevrolet! Draw a hammer and sickle on their advertising logo! Kill the Yankees! And all who love the Yankees!
This is one of Nepomnyashchy's most popular songs; thousands in Russia know it by heart.
They stuffed the Stars and Stripes in the john. There's no future - there's Russian punk rock. Feed the yuppie with "Pedigree Pal" kasha - And add a little lead, so he doesn't run away! Kill the Yankees! And all who love the Yankees!
Jello Biafra is Russian, born in Moscow, Kurt Cobain is Russian too, also born in Moscow, Jim Morrison is Russian, and born in Moscow, Jimi Hendrix is Russian, born in Moscow. Kill the Yankees!
...The Voronezh "new left" newspaper Mass Protests published the text of another Nepomnyashchy song entitled "All Who Love Babylon":
Buy Tampax tampons, Chew Spearmint gum, Eat a Snickers bar, Drink Hershey's - No matter what, a bullet will be found for you. No matter what, a bullet will be found for you . Have a Barbie doll, Live on planet Reebok, Smoke Camel cigarettes, Wash your hair with Procter & Gamble. No matter what, a bullet will be found for you .
Live in concrete prisons, Chop up the wood for them, Save up all the money you can For a long, well-fed retirement . No matter what, a bullet will be found for you. ............................................................................ ................
And anyone here buy Stephen Cohen's new book, "Failed Crusade: America and the Tragedy of Post-Commumist Russia." ??? Any posts on this on Johnson's Russia list or H-Russia?
