D5GD5 Your in Russia And more than a million works of art Are wisked out to the woods and When the Nazis find the hole place dark They'd think god's Left the museum for good
D5GD5 I make you scared, if that's what I do If you're prepared , if I have to If I make you scared and you pay me to If that's the deal Now here's what I can do for you
