The Lyrics

Hey, I think this is the first Dschinghis Khan parody we've had on this site! Well, not so much a parody as it is an English translation of Moskau. I know there's already an English Moskau song, but I wanted to do my own version that was closer to the original German song, with some parody lyrics.
Moscow,
Strange & mysterious,
Towers so luminous,
Covered in ice.

Moscow,
What have you really learnt?
As the white fire burnt,
Did it feel nice?

The Cossacks have, have, have
Their glasses full.
Natasha is, is, is
So beautiful.
Hey comrades let's, let's, let's
Live for it all.

To your health,
Brother, hey!
Brother, ho!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Let's give this country a hand,
Russia is a pretty land.
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Your soul is so very big!
Hit the devil with a pig!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Let's go taste the caviar,
And we'll get a Russian car.
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Come and dance down to the lakes,
And we'll dance until day breaks.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Moscow,
City of mystery
With a rich history
Deep in its blood.

M-m-m-m-m-m-m-moscow,
Embers within your soul,
Glow like a white-hot coal
Despite the flood.

The Cossacks have, have, have
Their glasses full.
Natasha is, is, is
So beautiful.
Hey comrades let's, let's, let's
Live for it all.

To your health,
Sister, hey!
Sister, ho!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Let's give this country a hand,
Russia is a pretty land.
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Your soul is so very big!
Hit the devil with a pig!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Hey!

Moscow,
La la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la.
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho! Hey!

Moscow, (Moscow),
La la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Oooooooohhhhhh,
Oh, oh, oooooooohhhhhh,
Ooooooooohhhh.
Oh, oh, oooooooohhhhhh,
Oooooooohhhhhh,
Oh, oh, oooooooohhhhhh.

Moscow! Moscow!
Moscow, Moscow,
Let's give out a hundred cheers!
Power for a hundred years!
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Rammstein's song is not as good,
Treats you like a commie hood.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

(Moscow!)
(Moscow!)


The Cossacks have, have, have
Their glasses full.
Natasha is, is, is
So beautiful.
Hey comrades let's, let's, let's
Live for it all.

To your health,
Everyone!
Everywhere!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Let's give this country a hand,
Russia is a pretty land.
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Your soul is so very big!
Hit the devil with a pig!
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Let's go taste the caviar,
And we'll get a Russian car.
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho! Hey!

Moscow, Moscow,
Come and dance down to the lakes,
And we'll dance until day breaks.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Hey!

Hey, I don't see why more people aren't writing Dschinghis Khan parodies, seeing as how Moskau's an internet phenomenon. I mean, Mr. X and I are the only ones who wrote Dschinghis Khan parodies, & they're both Moskau parodies. Then again, Dschinghis Khan's only known to a certain sect of people (in the US, anyways), so that's probably why.

NOTICE: All my Dschinghis Khan parodies are in memory of Louis Hendrik Potgieter (1951-1996) & Steve Bender (1946-2006). Louis Hendrik Potgieter was the lead singer in Dschinghis Khan, & died of AIDS on the date indicated. Steve Bender was the bald dude in Dschinghis Khan, & died of cancer on the date indicated. May their souls rest in peace.

However, there's some good news. I found a website with MP3s for every Dschinghis Khan song! Go to 81.26.155.206/music/Dschinghis_Khan/ if you're interested. Also, go to www.steppenwind.com/texte.htm if you want lyrics to Dschinghis Khan songs. They have lyrics for almost all the Dschinghis Khan songs, except for most of the English songs. (NOTE: I excluded adding the http part because it would recognize the links & forbid me from posting them. Just copy these links over everything in the link bar except for the http, colon, & double slash. Chucky, please don't arrest me! I'm an honest man!)
