On a training excercize to Ukraine
we'll put in practice what we have trained
By choppers, planes and even by sea
we showed the true might of the VDV

VDV - take off the strip
Two hundred men on a one-way trip
didn't even do the anti-air supperession
now who is the twat who planned this mission?

VDV - in the Heaven I'll meet
Fallschirmjägers from the battle of Crete
This whole mission was a bloody disgrace
Airborne drops in contested airspace?

Hostomel airport needst to be taken
Port of Odessa needs to be awaken
who else to send but the VDV?
Day, night, drop us where you need

VDV - no braver men you'll get
Jumped in the Black Sea after sunset
tried our best to swim to the shore
Didn't quite make it and they're flying out more

VDV, any casualties?
Javelins cooking off our BMDs
under heavy fire at the airport
what the hell happened to our air support?
(We need air support!)

New orders came from top brass up high
looks like it's time to say goodbye
Loading up the jet, we're packed like sardines
still no air superiority, you know what it means!

VDV - the missle hit our jet!
looked around and most of my squad are dead
those who made it are hunted like sport
what the fuck happened to our air support?

VDV - our lives thrown away!
Another drop in the middle of the day
posted on the Twitter before we touch down
why did we jump into this goddamned town?

VDV - the lesson not learned
sending us by helos just to get burned
my entire company deleted by drones
nothing survivest but some charred bones

VDV - when will it end?
how many of us are going to be sent
surrounded, cut off, our lives cut short
when are we getting that air support?
(We need that air support!)

VDV - we're in trouble deep
we're hit so badly it makes me weep
All around us is carnage and mayhem
The British planned their jump better at Arnhem!

VDV - the world laughs at us
our reputation's gone and so our status
Our CO's dead and everyone us mock
we're gone from the elites into laughingstock
