Lyrics
Twas a stormy night in April
In the year of 22
The Mad Tsar invaded Ukraine
Barbarians rent the world through
The Moskva was a cruiser
Flagship of the Black Sea fleet
With nuclear tipped missiles
She was the one to beat
Slava Ukraini
Glory to Ukraine
Sink the bloody Orcs
Beneath the briny mane
Stars flew over Odessa
And struck the great ship's sides
With a groan she capsized over
The Black Sea poured inside
Then mighty explosions
Roiled the foaming waves
The Moskva was a sinkin'
And debts were being paid
Slava Ukraini
Glory to Ukraine
Sink the bloody Orcs
Beneath the briny mane
The Turks fished out 52
No other sailors were saved
458 men that night
Went to a watery grave
The Admiral he was drinkin'
His eyes were filled with fear
His arrest warrant had been drafted
His dyin' time was near
Slava Ukraini
Glory to Ukraine
Sink the bloody Orcs
Beneath the briny mane
The Russians lied at first
They looked incompetent
The truth was hardly better
It was inconvenient
The free world rejoiced
The night the flagship went down
In Davey Jones's Locker
She had no real renown
Slava Ukraini
Glory to Ukraine
Sink the bloody Orcs
Beneath the briny mane
