[00:55.98] There lived a certain man in Russia long ago

[00:59.22] He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow

[01:02.98] Most people look at him with terror and with fear

[01:06.72] But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear

[01:10.99] He could preach the Bible like a preacher

[01:14.75] Full of ecstasy and fire

[01:18.49] But he also was the kind of teacher

[01:22.27] Women would desire

[01:25.99] RA RA RASPUTIN

[01:28.00] Lover of the Russian queen

[01:29.99] There was a cat that really was gone

[01:33.73] RA RA RASPUTIN

[01:35.48] Russia's greatest love machine

[01:37.47] It was a shame how he carried on

[01:58.74] He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Tsar

[02:01.52] But the kazachok he danced really wunderbar

[02:05.74] In all affairs of state he was the man to please

[02:09.27] But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze

[02:13.50] For the queen he was no wheeler dealer

[02:17.25] Though she'd heard the things he'd done

[02:20.99] She believed he was a holy healer

[02:24.74] Who would heal her son

[02:28.46] RA RA RASPUTIN

[02:30.51] Lover of the Russian queen

[02:32.49] There was a cat that really was gone

[02:36.26] RA RA RASPUTIN

[02:38.00] Russia's greatest love machine

[02:40.00] It was a shame how he carried on

[02:47.28] But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger

[02:51.48] For power became known to more and more people

[02:55.00] The demands to do something about this outrageous

[02:58.28] Man became louder and louder

[03:23.75] "This man's just got to go!" declared his enemies

[03:26.75] But the ladies begged "Don't you try to do it, please"

[03:30.75] No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms

[03:34.25] Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms

[03:38.71] Then one night some men of higher standing

[03:42.52] Set a trap, they're not to blame

[03:46.21] "Come to visit us" they kept demanding

[03:49.75] And he really came

[03:53.75] RA RA RASPUTIN

[03:55.52] Lover of the Russian queen

[03:57.75] They put some poison into his wine

[04:01.25] RA RA RASPUTIN

[04:03.26] Russia's greatest love machine

[04:05.23] He drank it all and said "I feel fine"

[04:11.01] RA RA RASPUTIN

[04:12.75] Lover of the Russian queen

[04:14.75] They didn't quit, they wanted his head

[04:18.47] RA RA RASPUTIN

[04:20.22] Russia's greatest love machine

[04:22.50] And so they shot him till he was dead
