Текст песни Russian Ballerina

It takes ten years just to get
Your stinking leg up
Then five more to make it
Not look like shit
Soviet children form a crowd
Sized and tested
Who will be a star
Hero of passion of whom they'll say
She took her final breath in grand plie
O! My mother!
Russian Ballerina!
You were a swan
But now you're swimming in the Carribean
O! My mother!
Russian Ballerina!
Nobody knows how you can live without the love of your life
Everybody's asking me
Where is Mary?
I don't see her at the theatre
Or the parties
That's right, because
She's carving bamboo
Far from the artistic millieu
Never thought she'd live without
Allegiance to a life of art
Oh! My mother! Russian ballerina!
