Shoot the stray dogs and lock up the gays
We’re playing FIFA’s Russian Roulette.
Vilify those who dare criticise
It’s the World Cup we’ll never forget.

Monkey chants ring out from the stadia
We’re enjoying FIFA’s Russian Roulette
Unleash the thugs with their fascist regalia
It’s the World Cup we can hardly forget.

Building white elephants with oil and gas from the ground
We’re hooked into FIFA’s Russian Roulette
With a crumbling social system and poverty all around
Lenin’s dreams all too easy to forget.

Russian Oligarchs strutting the planet at will
We’re logged into FIFA’s Russian Roulette’
Russia’s new imperial gangsters at the top of the hill
It’s a World Cup we would rather forget.

While NATO generals are provoking the Russian bear
We’re all playing FIFA’s Russian Roulette
A third world war is ready any time that we dare
This might be a World Cup we would love to forget.

The nukes are all primed with the maniacs in charge
So much fun playing Russian Roulette.
One tiny spark but the stakes are so large
But the football will help us forget.
