#4 As some day it may happen
that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list I've got a little list
Of society offenders
who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed
who never would be missed!

There's the pestilential journalists who write offensive slanders
All people to whom the wretched loyal opposition panders
All hooligans who curse the state, and billionaires who steals
All persons who, when dining out, eat only Halal meals
And all third persons who on spoiling Kremlin plots insist
They'd none of 'em be missed they'd none of 'em be missed!

#5 I thought Russia was never a dictatorship, except for that brief interval with Kruschev?
