One Night In Moscow (& We'll Be Russian Home!)

(album: Wakey Wakey - 1989)

We had to book a holiday
But we were sick o'Whitley bay
We fancied the Mediterranean
All the vacancies had gone
That's all the vacancies but one
A Vacancy for which we didn't plan

What could we do? We could hitch
A ride back home from Moskvitch
We had to stay and face the cost
And sunbathe in the russian frost

One one one one night in Moscow
And we'll be russian home
One one one one night in Moscow
I'll be russian, you'll be russian, we'll all be russian home

The brochure said it's nice and warm
You need no Russian uniform
We had the flu and caught a Russian cough
No fish n' chips or decent pubs
We called the hotel Wormwood Scrubs
We said we would complain to Gorbachev

We couldn't find a disco anywhere
No McDonalds or a wimpy in red square
We must have been potty to have gone
To the soviet union

One one one one night in Moscow
And we'll be russian home

For a pint and Coronation Street
Russian home
A Bacon Sarny and as much as we can eat
Russian home

One one one one night in Moscow
And we'll be russian home
One one one one night in Moscow
I'll be russian, you'll be russian, we'll all be russian home
One one one one night in Moscow
And we'll be russian home
One one one one night in Moscow
I'll be russian, you'll be russian, we'll all be russian home

We'll all be russian home
