[Verse 1]
Cold gray towers
Paper crowns
Big talk, small power
Trying to shut us down
You puff your chest
In a crooked parade
But your guns look busted
And your banner’s frayed
[Chorus]
Russia, you’re all bark in the snow
Big boots, but you move too slow
Blow that bluff right out of the sky
I got a swingin’ trumpet
And it’s tellin’ you why
(can’t hide, can’t hide)
Russia, all rust on the chrome
Loud flags, but a cracked metronome
We’re gonna dance while your daydreams fall
Hear that trumpet call, trumpet call
[Verse 2]
You draw red lines
Like a child with chalk
But every promise
Trips over your talk
You flex on screens
Throw shade at the free
But your mirror’s screaming
Who you tryin’ to be?
[Chorus]
Russia, you’re all bark in the snow
Big boots, but you move too slow
Blow that bluff right out of the sky
I got a swingin’ trumpet
And it’s tellin’ you why
(hey, wake up)
Russia, all rust on the chrome
Loud flags, but a cracked metronome
We’re gonna dance while your daydreams fall
Hear that trumpet call, trumpet call
[Bridge]
[Trumpet riffs, call-and-response with short vocal lines]
Blat-brat, brass in your face
You can’t keep up with the pace
We’ve got light, we’ve got groove
You’re stuck, you won’t move
(so stuck, so stuck)
[Chorus]
Russia, you’re all bark in the snow
Big boots, but you move too slow
Blow that bluff right out of the sky
I got a swingin’ trumpet
And it’s tellin’ you why
(ohhh, blow it loud)
Russia, all rust on the chrome
Loud flags, but a cracked metronome
We’re gonna dance while your daydreams fall
Hear that trumpet call
Hear that trumpet call, trumpet call
