The three Pussy Riot grrls, two of them with young children, have been sentenced to two years in jail for “hooliganism.” The latter included “homosexual propaganda,” and “jerking of limbs” during their live performance at Moscow’s Christ the Saviour cathedral.
Punk-Prayer “Virgin Mary, Put Putin Away”
(choir)
Virgin Mary, Mother of God, put Putin away
Рut Putin away, put Putin away(end chorus) …
Black robe, golden epaulettes
All parishioners crawl to bow
The phantom of liberty is in heaven
Gay-pride sent to Siberia in chainsThe head of the KGB, their chief saint,
Leads protesters to prison under escort
In order not to offend His Holiness
Women must give birth and loveShit, shit, the Lord’s shit!
Shit, shit, the Lord’s shit!(Chorus)
Virgin Mary, Mother of God, become a feminist
Become a feminist, become a feminist(end chorus)
The Church’s praise of rotten dictators
The cross-bearer procession of black limousines
A teacher-preacher will meet you at school
Go to class - bring him money!Patriarch Gundyaev believes in Putin
Bitch, better believe in God instead
The belt of the Virgin can’t replace mass-meetings
Mary, Mother of God, is with us in protest!(Chorus)
Virgin Mary, Mother of God, put Putin away
Рut Putin away, put Putin away(end chorus)
My prediction? Vlad the Impaler v2.0 will shortly commute the sentences. Emperors do that sort of thing, to make themselves look merciful and authoritative at once—cementing their positions as the ultimate dispensers of law, above which they squat on their dirty thrones.
Nothing in Russia has changed. The KGB has just got religion.
