Nippy Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 (Sung to the tune of "Eve of Destruction") Eve of Bagration - By Nippy The Eastern Front It is explodin' T-34s moving Sturmoviks loadin' The counterstrike has begun And the Reds are Rollin' You say the Commies aren’t commin’ But what's that Faust you’re totin' And now the Dniper River has bodies floatin' But you tell me over, and over, and over again my friend Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of Bagration Don't you understand that we can’t run away Russians are making a stand against the Germans today Soviets are striking back and there will be hell to pay Russians will kill every last damn kraut They won’t stop till the German army routes Take a look around you Comrade, It's bound to thrill you Comrade And you tell me over, and over, and over again my friend Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of Bagration It’s long after Kursk, things keep getting worse Germans retreat in disgrace And fall back in haste If this keeps up It’s defeat they’ll face They have no more tanks to waste While the Reds give chase And all the while Hitler never gets off their case As for the Soviets It’s victory they taste And you tell me over, and over, and over again my friend Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of Bagration Germans think they are unstoppable in their Tiger tanks Too bad they never bother to watch their flanks Germans still thought their Panzers were pretty cool Thought they could play the Soviets for a bunch of fools But they didn’t think it through And ran into a Guards Company of JS-2s At first the Nazies were cocky, and thought they were the master race Now they sing a different tune, when a 122mm smacks their face But you tell me over, and over, and over, and over again my friend You don't believe we're on the eve of Bagration No, no, you don't believe we're on the eve of Bagration ...first time I've ever liked music from the sixties 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von Paulus Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 Nice idea, but it depends on what kind of music you want to have with your song. Paulus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von Paulus Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 It's not necessary to play with the original music. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulus I'd suggest something along the lines of what the Dickies did to this song. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
