He’s in Serve Cocktails By Molotov which has
український & Русский субтитри / субтитры
And here’s the English:
SERVE COCKTAILS BY MOLOTOV
His first time abroad, he visits Ukraine
It’s cramped in his tank, but lucky he came
To save us from Nazis, he tried to explain
A Special Operation, why would we complain?
We scream: We don’t want you. Leave our land alone
And always stay peaceful, but we should have known
Try to stop his tank with our bare hands
He thought he’d be welcome, does not understand
And I will fight with all that I have – my heart, my song or bullets
Coz I love my Ukraine, and they will never take it
Now he goes deeper, now he gets worse
His church has blessed him, that is our curse
Culture and borders are not far apart
While something is missing in that neighbor’s heart
He’s tired and thirsty, wants beer or Smirnoff
But we just serve cocktails by Molotov
And I will fight with all that I have – my heart, my song, or bullets
Coz I love my Ukraine and they will never take it
We stand for our country, so we stand for yours
When Ukraine prevails, that will discourage war
Can’t make a crocodile vegetarian by giving it more meat
His commander has run, the crew feels lost
Coz free-thinking died, the dictator’s cost
A general is coming to supervise hell
Too late, his tank’s damaged, and we’ll repair well
His parents are poor, he sent things from the dead
But didn’t like to rape, or shoot those who fled
Says he’s a conscript forced to these parts
Yes, Sir, no, Sir, the interview starts.

Thank you for sharing this fantastic composition. Wishing for peace and the departure of the invading forces
A powerful song with amazing vocals by Serge! This song is filled with so much emotion. Power to UKRAINE!!
This is almost a national hymn highlighting the proud ness of “My Ukraine 🇺🇦” felt in your heart and entire spine of steel. For a proud people, I hail you and I hear you.
God bless Ukrainian people 🙏
Anton, you wrote a beautiful song. I listen to it everyday. Bravo, sir! ♥
🙏🙏🙏
Powerful song
No words " Superb" heart touching. The idea and inspiration are so powerful. Beautiful !
Amazing song
It makes you feel the struggle and the pain Ukrainians are going through. Prayers for them.
That’s vibes!
a powerful song, I like to listen to it over and over again. I'm glad to have the honor of working on this video. #standforukraine 💙💛
Awesome inspiration 🇺🇦🙏
All crocodiles should be forced to watch this video.
Super
дякую хлопці
This masterpiece shows the whole world the resilience of the Ukrainian people and the hell in which hard workers, minds and ordinary defenseless old people, children and women, have fallen! Damn the invaders, but we will not retreat!!! Glory to Ukraine!
👍🇺🇦
The English prime minister called Putin a crocodile and this song says the same.
Don't know who said it first but anyway you're both right.
Long live Ukraine. No Macron compromise with crocodile
This starts off slow and builds in picture-speed and horror.
Tells the horrible truth without making me look away.
Fantastic lyrics, fantastically sung. Cool title.
Love this. Love Ukraine.
"The world should be singing this against Putin."
Amazing song, tears and anger flowing
Thank you Ukraine for doing what we won't
Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦
The story of the war in an anthem. cool
This should be sung in Ukrainian
Should get the award for "Best song in a foreign language"
Listening again and again and continuing to share. My heart prayers and donations are all with Ukrainian people
I have OLEKSANDR TKACHENKO – Minister of Culture's – phone number. I've WhatsApped him about how UWC promoted the song on FB & all money will go to them & I know for sure the song’s been passed to him by the Dir of Culture at the UK’s Ukrainian Embassy & the ambassador’s assistant in New York & two other country’s ambassadors & several other people but Tkachenko just ignores me. I’d have thought the man would at least have the grace to say smthg like “Sorry, Anton, thank you for your effort for our country but I can’t put this on our website because…”
Everyone outside Ukraine has told me they cannot put it on their official website or Twitter till Ukraine does (as the the Lithuanian Ambassador put it: “They were the one invaded. If they don’t recognise the song, how can we?”) And the UK & NY’s Ukrainian embassies feel they must await their HQ.
Pink Floyd’s song was brilliant but unsingable for anyone outside Ukraine yet – thanks to their name – made good money for Ukraine. Serve Cocktails By Molotov with its “crocodile”-line (I was so happy to share that too with Tkackenko when Boris Johnson said it) is relevant to Lithuania, Finland, Croatia, Sweden, etc & since Ukraine is fighting for all of us, it certainly is a singable “my Ukraine”-chorus, in English, Ukrainian, & will help inspire a brave Russian rebellion. Thank you for being particularly enthusiastic about this song, Mary Moonen. I won't put Tchachenko’s number here coz I don't want idiots calling him. So, email antonhicks@gmail.com for it then – as well as sharing the song – share that!
Get this song on his official website. Your comments are lovely but lost here. The present 15K on youtube is nice but will change nothing. Get silent ex-journalist Tkachenko to change.
