Mighty Night

 Guaranteed chaos

A cocktail of lies

Misinterpretation

On a grand scale

The tale of the dragon flies


wreaking rack and ruin

The combination of trash

and nations, who throw their waste

Into their neighbour's gardens


While our trees were being blown over

By Storm Eunice, Dudley and Franklin

A far bigger storm was brewing over Ukraine

As Russia readied itself for war

Hiding its intention behind

Barely veiled lies

And smoke and mirror tactics


Only the sleeping West and central Europe

Whose population has been prepared for this ally 

With Russia

For Hungary will want their country back

To expand their borders is what Orban wants

This is his dream come true

With one hand dealing with the West

While under the table

Shaking hands with Russia

Letting the enemy in at the gates

Nothing is new

And we have seen it all before

Well the pendulum swings from West to East

From left to right

And we find ourselves at war


It was always going to happen

It was the gathering storm

The weakness of a complacent Europe

Too happy and comfortable in their freedoms

Too ready to ignore the signs

And the strengthening of Russia

The Soviet Block

Will be putting back up its iron wall

Rock by bloody rock
