Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

There lived a certain man in Russia long ago
He was big and strong,
In his eyes a flaming glow

Most people looked at him
With terror and with fear

But to Moscow chicks
He was such a lovely dear

He could preach the bible like a preacher
Full of ecstacy and fire

But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire

Ra-Ra-Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone

Ra-Ra-Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on

He ruled the Russian land
And never mind the Czar

But the Kasachok
He danced really wunderbar

In all affairs of state he was the man to please
But he was real great
When he had a girl to squeeze

For the queen he was no wheeler dealer
Though she'd heard the things he'd done

She believed he was a holy healer
Who would heal her son

Ra-Ra-Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone

Ra-Ra-Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on

But when his drinking and lusting
and his hunger for power
became known to more and more people,

the demands to do something
about this outrageous man
became louder and louder.

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

"This man's just got to go!" declared his enemies
But the ladies begged
"Don't you try to do it, please"

No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute
They just fell into his arms

Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they're not to blame

"Come to visit us" they kept demanding
And he really came

Ra-Ra-Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
They put some poison into his wine

Ra-Ra-Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all and he said "I feel fine"

Ra-Ra-Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
They didn't quit, they wanted his head

Ra-Ra-Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
And so they shot him till he was dead

Oh, those Russians
