Intro : (x2) Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey (x2)          (x2)          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 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    He ruled the Russian land and never mind the Tsar But the kasatschok 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 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 (x2) "But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger for power became known to more and more people, the demands to do something about this outrageous man became louder and louder". Hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey (x4) "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 high standing Set a trap - they're not to blame "Come to visit us," they kept demanding And he really came 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 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 Oh, those Russians...

La chanson évoque l'histoire fascinante de Rasputin, un homme important en Russie, qui, malgré son apparence redoutable, était perçu différemment par les femmes de la cour. Il était connu pour sa capacité à prêcher avec passion et à captiver l'attention, ce qui lui avait valu une place privilégiée auprès de la reine. Bien qu’il jouât un rôle significatif dans les affaires de l'État, son penchant pour l'ivresse et le pouvoir suscita bientôt des inquiétudes et des controverses. Rasputin, considéré comme un guérisseur, avait su attirer la confiance de la famille royale, mais ses excès finirent par provoquer son downfall. Face à ses ennemis qui tramaient sa chute, il sombra dans une spirale de drames qui culmina avec son assassinat orchestré par ceux qui voulaient mettre un terme à son influence. Ce récit illustre les intrigues de la cour impériale russe et l'ombre d'un homme aux talents autant admirés que redoutés.
