Lyrics:
[Intro]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
[Verse 1]
There lived a certain man, in Russia long ago
He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow
Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the Bible like a preacher
Full of ecstasy and fire
But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire
[Chorus]
Ra, Ra, Rasputin
Lover of the Russian Queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra, Ra, Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on
[Verse 2]
He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Tsar
But the kazachok he danced really wunderbar
In all affairs of state, he was the man to please
But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze
For the Queen he was no wheeler-dealer
Though she'd heard the things he'd done
She believed he was a holy healer
Who would heal her son
[Chorus]
Ra, Ra, Rasputin
Lover of the Russian Queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra, Ra, Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on
[Bridge: Newsreader]
But when his drinking, lusting and his hunger for power became to known to more and more people, the demands to do something about this outrageous man became louder and louder!
[Bridge]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
[Verse 3]
"This man's just got to go!" declared his enemies
But the ladies begged, "Don't you try to do it, please"
No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute, they just fell into his arms
Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they're not to blame
"Come to visit us" they kept demanding
And he really came
[Chorus]
Ra, Ra, Rasputin
Lover of the Russian Queen
They put some poison into his wine
Ra, Ra, Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all and he said "I feel fine"
Ra, Ra, Rasputin
Lover of the Russian Queen
They didn't quit, they wanted his head
Ra, Ra, Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
And so they shot him till he was dead
[Outro]
Oh, those Russians....

This song is not the TIKTOK song , this song is the 80s disco song.

[@09Max09]

What's funny is that it was made in I think 1973, if not 1974-1978. Theres a comment explaining a lot of backstory

[@cesarcardona7780]

But I thought it was modified.

[@Entertainment-ul1ef]

Это не 80-е, это точно конец 70-х - в 80-х в странах - союзниках США, был уже синтипоп. Диско 70-х было более "натуральным", а 80-е использовались синтезаторы. Вот отличие диско от синтипопа.

SONG ORIGIN: Originally based in West Germany, the four original members of the group were Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett from Jamaica, Maizie Williams from Montserrat, and Bobby Farrell from Aruba. They were formed in 1976, and quickly achieved huge popularity during the disco era of the late 1970s. "Rasputin" is a song by Germany-based pop and Euro disco group Boney M. It was released on 28 August 1978 as the second single from their third studio album Nightflight to Venus (1978). Written by the group's creator Frank Farian, along with George Reyam and Fred Jay, it is a song about Grigori Rasputin, a friend and advisor of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia and his family during the early 20th century. The song describes Rasputin as a playboy, mystical healer, and political manipulator. In late January 2021, almost 43 years since it was released as a single, the song went viral on TikTok, also appearing on Spotify's "Viral Hits" playlist. The accompanying dance originated from the 2010 video game, Just Dance 2.

Badass Russians

[@robertslaughter7044]

Of course the entire story of Rasputin is a tribute to the power of Russian Men over their Environment and their Women. ... Ahh... Too be bigger, stronger, and able to satisfy 8 women a day, all whilst drunk. A true Man's Man... Like Baldi of Icelandic fame...He drank all the Mead and ate all the food in the entire village. They thought they could kill him now. He grabs the assassin, picks him by his neck and pins him against a wall, with feet dangling. Baldi barfs all over him from head to toe. Gallons of mead, pounds of food. Then Baldi poked out his eyes... The King of Denmark got his taxes that year. Very Macho...

[@glutenfreecontent]

@kintriller3577 in my opinion this song isn’t really disrespectful I have a Russian friend who has no problem with this song and I even sent him the pop cat version song and all. This song is about a true story. A man named Rasputin who, history has it, was shot twice, poisoned, attempted to be drowned and many other things. He somehow survived and later I believe he died of hypothermia as I was told also this was back in the early 1900’s when this happened song was wrote in the 70’s and it is approved by a Russian so I think it’s fine
