A history of Post Orange Revolution Ukrainian politics in song up to the results of the 2010 Ukraine presidential elections to the tune of Ukrainin folk song Oy Ta duna duna
Lyrics
Once there was a business man Who fixed his own election Then they had a revolution Tried to change direction All Ukraine was then united Round a simple song That said corruption was the countriesa€™ Biggest single wrong. Yushchenko became the leader In this situation Tymoshenkoa€™s speeches made them Heroes of the nation Yanukovych failed to trick them With his dirty plan And then he was renamed The nations biggest bogey man Oy Ta Duna Duna Duna Orange Revolution! Oy Ta Duna Duna Duna What a great Solution! Yushchenko then said that the Corruption hasna€™t gone Sacked his government And said that this cana€™t carry on Tymoshenko was the highest Profile in the sacking Some think that she made her millions With some dodgy backing. With her sacking shea€™d become A lady unprotected She could be arrested now that She had been rejected. So she turned her charms to Putin Russiaa€™s leading man Said he's not that bad at all A really clever plan Oy tay Duna Duna Duna Orange Revolution Oy ta Dun Duna Duna What a big confusion ! Putin said a€œwea€™ll drop the charges You are not detested. If you visit Russia now You will not be arresteda€ Yushchenko was tactical In choosing his new friend. He Took a new prime minister Pro Russian to the end. Kutchma then gave Yushchenko And Yanukyvych blessing Looks as if those arguments Were only window dressing Nice to see the clans are pals And all are shaking hands. Just a little difficult For us to understand Oy tay Duna Duna Duna Orange Revolution Oy ta Dun Duna Duna What a big confusion ! Makes you wonder whata€™s the point And whose behind these plans Was the revolution just a Switch between the clans? There were demonstrations on the Streets that cold December Difficult for anyone in Office to remember? Youa€™ve all kept your millions And therea€™s no one there to blame If the country changes now Or if it stays the same! Since that time a lot has happened Some good and some bad. Yuliaa€™s Prime minister The craftiest wea€™ve had! Oy tay Duna Duna Duna What an institution! Oy tay Dun Duna Duna What a convolution! Yushchenko was trying hard To make Ukraine Ukrainian Yulia was treating him As if he was an Alien Then two thousand ten arrived And time for an election Yushchenko knocked out There wasna€™t much of a selection Yanukovych Putina€™s stooge An Oligarch transparent Tymoshenko bleating on As if the heir apparent Both of them are different But both are quite the same Neither wanted Yushchenko In charge of a€œour Ukrainea€ Oy tay Duna Duna Duna Wherea€™s the revolution? Was there ever really one Or was it an illusion! Now it looks as if theya€™ve got Exactly what they planned for Question is just how much more Will all the people stand for. Some would say ita€™s all made up And some would say insane One thing seems for sure It had to happen in Ukraine! Shea€™s a liar hea€™s a crook But both will claim perfection They should make them sit And take a test for lie detection Now ita€™s time to wait and see Who wins in this election Some would say ita€™s just a case Of who has least rejection! Oy tay Duna Duna Duna Here is the conclusion, Looks as if there never was An Orange Revolution! Yanukovych was the man The nation had rejected Now he is the president The country has selected! Though the world has recognized The crook is now the winner Yulia is showing At defeat shea€™s a beginner Some will say democracy Has won in this election Others that ita€™s meaningless With such a bad selection! Oy tay duna duna duna Just one more conclusion Looks as if wea€™re still a million Miles from a solution! © Stepan Pasicznyk aka" Ludwig" © 2005 October (Original) up to verse 15 Updated January 28th
