Do you comprehend the gravity of the situation
A cellar like yours, its walls speak of fears, and these
Cuffs from your belt now locked against you, you're done
The days of self-decoration and privilege... Gone
You and the boys from the OGPU
Have been keeping an eye on all that I do
Strip off that uniform, it doesn't suit a rat
Think thrice before trying to catch the cat
Unjust law
Shall spawn
Loathe and love
The more equal
You don't comprehend the gravity of the situation
A cellar like yours, its walls speak of fears, and these
Orders from higher up now turned against you, it's done
The days of self-decoration and privilege... Gone
Me and the boys from the OGPU
Have been keeping an eye on all that you do
Strip off that uniform, it doesn't suit a snake
You were the kaluga but now you are bait
Unjust law
Shall spawn
Loathe and love
The more equal
