Ditch The MuuMuu

Lyrics

The bear and the nightingale
The cat's away
Watch the cracks and never stray
Behind the lines
Zebra stripes were not so kind
They've taken things that bend their mind
Then wear on their shirts to tell a tale
The bear and the nightingale

Guided by the light
The factory was out of sight
The gods came to stroll
They shouldered arms and took control
And wore a smile to play a role
They hung from the mast then they sailed
The bear and the nightingale

Transmissions say that we're not here to play
If you fight we get bolder
Do as you're told till the story is sold
Before someone grows colder

Don't fence us in
Freedom is a lonely sin
Don't freak us out
The people have spoken there's no doubt
They want their bread and roundabouts
Then all go to work and shake the tale
Of The bear and the nightingale
The bear and the nightingale

"She says she's praying for peace for a brighter future for Ukraine's children."
[News announcer 2]:
"After the initial setbacks against the Russians there was an expectation that perhaps the Russian war machine would grind to a halt. Well, that's not happened either. So its a little hard to predict. This is a conflict that looks like its going to be around for a very long time. Is that 6 months? Is that 9? Is that a year? I wouldn't dare to take a guess any more."
[President Zelenskyy]:
"Now we know for sure who is really our brother and our friend
And who is not even a casual acquaintance
Who did not lose his name and reputation
And who worried for the terrorists to save face
Who doesn't really need us
And where the door is really open for us
We understand who is who
And the whole world learned who Ukrainians are
And the whole world learned who Ukrainians are."
