about

A song in admiration and support of the Ukrainian people.

lyrics

Evil hearted man shook his fist at the sky
Wanted to restore the Russian Empire
Mobilized his force, started a war
Bombed and murdered til his face fell on the floor

Blue and Yellow not for the taking
We are with you, everybody’s saying
Yellow & Blue
Colors of courage

Stalin raided Finland in 1939
He thought she would roll over but the grey wolf did bite
Molotov cocktails, white death on skis
The Winter War was lost by the Red Army

Blue and Yellow not for the taking
We are with you, everybody’s saying
Yellow & Blue
Colors of courage and truth

Rather fight and die
Even if there is no heaven
Than to live in a world under tyranny and oppression

Vladimir Putin your no Nicholas the 2nd
No blue in your blood, no match for a peasant
No swift victory, no victory at all
Never to conquer the Ukrainian people

Blue and Yellow not for the taking
We are with you, everybody’s saying
Yellow & Blue
Colors of courage and truth
