My Best Friend
05:25
|

Here they come Boris…..
Nose in the pudding bowl, fingers on the wall.
Driving mama crazy, playing with your ball
Papa chased you all around, you always got the blame
A quick trip to the woodshed, to whip your skinny frame
Pynesta' made you happy, you always let me win
Big brother you would say to me, I wish you were my twin
Little did we know one day, our lives would turn around
Dear Boris I love you my clown.
(Chorus). Is it any wonder ? Is It any wonder ? Is It any wonder that you’re my best friend ? (Repeat)
Remember when the forces, came marching into town
Used to drive them crazy, putting glass all in the ground
We watched the tires go flat, sinking in the mud
Hear the voices screaming, man they want our blood
Then one day it happened, Alfred lured you in
Promised you some candy, with his evil grin
He smashed your little fingers, and hung you from a tree
Mama tried to kill him, to let you be
(Chorus)

March In To Klushino
05:07

I saw you march into Klushino
You made my mom and dad afraid
I saw you brought with you this evil
Red hair and part of the brigade.
Hunting Kulock farmers like their ravens in the snow
Breaking down the doors, you knew they had no place to go
Poke them harder, poke them harder with your bayonet
Poke them once again until the clothes start getting wet
Herd the others down the path, and take them to the shed
Use the kerosene to light them up, make sure they’re dead
Take your aim at children who are running through the fields
Shoot the tallest ones, they are more than likely are the shields
I saw you march into Klushino
Like wolves descending on their prey.
I watched you march into Klushino
Make sure no one won’t get away
I watched our Colonel call you over
Pretend he couldn’t see or hear
And when you leaned in close to listen
He pulled the pin beside your ear.
He pulled the pin.

Waterfall
Take me down to the water, let me wash my sins away
One more trip down the lonely road, and I’ll be on my way, from here.
The coolness of the water, let’s me know just who I am.
They see me as a hero, but I’m just simple man
I am.
So let me stand in the waterfall, let me wash my sins away.
Help me feel you Jesus, cause you know I’m on my way, from here

Close To Heaven
Stand by the window in the morning light
Wear the dress that you know I like
Feel the sunlight in your hair
Hold me close let me feel your skin
A few more days and our journey begins
Say a little prayer for me
I know how much you care for me
I’ll fly above the clouds
Almost past the moon
I’ll watch the sun come up
I should be home by noon
Looking for angels, as I touch their sky
I may make it close to heaven,
I feel, I feel so alive
Awake at 5 a.m., cant see the light
Slept like a baby all through the night
It’s been a long time
Now it’s almost time
Look me over say it’s time to go
A bumpy ride, down a lonely road
Here comes the sunshine
It’s almost my time
A final handshake and they load me in
I see their faces with their worried grin
They strap me in now
He knows I know how
I feel the pressure and I hear the roar
I played it through a hundred times before
For those of you who care for me
Say a little prayer for me
I went high above the clouds
I flew past the moon
And here comes the sun
I made it home by noon
The angels gave a wave, as I touched their sky
And I made it close to heaven
I feel so alive

36 Dogs

It sure is cold tonight
That’s why my hands are shaking
Is there anyone you can talk to
Is there someone who cares
Don’t let me go like Laika
Or simply float away
Isn’t there anyone, anyone you can talk too
Isn’t there someone
Someone who cares
36 dogs before me
36 dogs, no one cares
36 dogs, 36 dogs before me
36 dogs, no one cares
How will you tell my Valentina
Let her know, that you’ll be there.
Is there anyone you can talk to

You don’t know what it’s like
You can’t know how I feel
I’ve given everything for you
And now you tell me there’s nothing you can do
Kiss your kids and hug your wife
You need not worry I’ll be home tonight
When you come back we’ll share a drink
It’s time now, it’s time now
But in my heart I know they lie
I can see the look in Yuri’s eyes
So I kiss my kids and I hug my wife
They lied now, they lied now
All things come to an end
But this end, need not be
I gave my everything for you
And now you tell me there’s nothing you can do
Kiss your kids and hug your wife
You need not worry I’ll be home tonight
When you come back we’ll share a drink
It’s time now, it’s time now
But in my heart I know they lie
I can see the look in Yuri’s eyes
So I kiss my kids and I hug my wife
They lied

Answer Me

In this metal shell I live my life. I miss my home, I miss my kids and wife.... I was a good man. I loved my homeland. I did and said everything that you'd want. And now Im out here. So full of doubt here. The only words that I hear are what I say....Answer Me. I feel the heat now. Im getting weak now. Am I floating to the end of my days....Forget the fanfare. You caused this nightmare. I know you're hearing every word that I say. Answer Me.

The sun doesn't seem, as bright anymore. The kids laughter, hurts my ears. My coffee is cold, and my toast is dry. I use my napkin, to dry my tears. I cant lay awake, in our bed anymore. I try and sleep, in your favorite chair. I hold my shirt up, to my nose and breathe. I make believe that you're still here.....Oh How I Miss You, Oh How I Miss You, Make the day go away....Oh How I Miss You, Oh how I Miss You, Please make the world, go away.......
