Russian Government Process

(album: Stories From Norway: The Andøya Rocket Incident - 2018)

When you receive new official correspondence
It must be handled with precision and finesse.

It may seem a bit complex, but it's simple,
Just relax, when you follow Russian government process.

Fold it, stack it, cut it, tack it, stamp it, sign it, seal it,
File it, batch it, mark it,
Bulk compile it, Russian government process.

New design on flag (here), ban on plastic bag (here),
Equal right for gays (here), asking for a raise (here)

Clip it, tip it, bottleneck it, sort it,
Tag it, double check it, Russian government process.

No, no, no, too fast. Where do I put this application, for.

Take your information to the corresponding
Station, in a classified location no one can access

Stamp it (stamp it), lick it (lick it),
Toss it (toss it), flick it (flick it), Russian government process.

(Random background choir noise)
You see, not so hard, just let go,
Relax and system will guide you, all you have to do is...

LUUU, LUUUU, LUUUUU, LUUUUNCH TIME.

New boy you take lunch order now.

What?

I'll have fish ragu (ragu), I want Moscow stew, stroganoff for me,
Make it gluten free. (Wait) apple pie, caviar,
Gingerbread, beef tartar, lunch time ordering process.

Too fast.

Easy on the salt (hey), double on the spice (hey),
Hand filet my chicken (hey), double cook it twice (hey).

Grill it, spice it, supersize it, flame it,
Boil it, circumcise it, Special Russian omelette.

You got it?

No.

Good.

Back to work.

What?

Goodbye.

Hello.

Stamp it, lick it, toss it, flick it.
Russian Government process. Good luck.
