"Stalingrad"
(Verlaine)

Walking home from Stalingrad,
Mona says it's oh so bad,
But I know, I know,
I've been really had.
Walking home from Stalingrad.

She says,
I know my flesh and blood
I may not see again,
But I can think of that as
A new kind of end.

Walking home from Stalingrad,
Mona says it's all so sad,
I know, I know,
I must have been completely mad.
Walking home from Stalin...
Walking home from Stalingrad.

Oh, I suppose there are
A thousand facts to face,
Considering just what has
And has not taken place.

Mona says it's all so bad,
Walking home from Stalingrad,
I know...
I know...

I know my flesh and blood
I may not see again,
But I can think of that as
A new kind of end.
Walking home from Stalingrad,
Mona says she feels so bad,
I know...
I know...
I must have been completely mad.
Walking home from Stalin...
Walking home from Stalingrad.
Walking home from Stalin...
Walking home from Stalingrad.
