Yes, Putin Is a Madman

Yes, Putin is a madman,
A Hitler can't you see,
Because he cares for Russia
And its security.

While NATO keeps on arming
The Nazis in Ukraine--
He simply won't bend over
And tell them it's OK.

Yes, you can build your bases
In Russia's back yard
With nukes to bring democracy
That you've pushed so hard.

The genocide of Russians
In separatist states--
Just say it isn't happening--
Like anti-Russian hate.

Same hate that you have sown
In Yemen and Iraq,
In Syria, Libya, Serbia--
But you don't give a fuck.

The lies and the corruption
Are so commonplace
Along with puppet governments
That you've put in place.

Yes, you will fight the Russians
With proxy wars and lies
And your corrupt democracy
That nobody buys.
