According to two Russian soldiers interviewed by a pro-invasion blogger, if you wear a Russian military uniform on the metro in Moscow people distance themselves and give you dirty looks.

    Place for tanks is in museums,

    Let them rust in quiet,

    Even as toys

    They should be forgotten.

    My bad attempt to translate ELYSIUM - Tanks.

        Tried as close to original as possible:

        How much years unending

        Slaughters inhumane

        On children fall from sky

        Bombs as bunch of anger

        Tanks’ place is in museums

        Let them quietly rust there

        Body of mother is scarred

        Warriors’ place is in romance

        Wars are not glory

        Groans in bloody mess

        Tears, dirt on uniform

        Wars don’t have a place in the world

        Tanks’ place is in museums

        Let them quietly rust there

        In tales of old empires

        People don’t belive anymore

        “Homo homini lupus est” is what we said when

        Voice of reason was silent in world and war raged everywhere

        When lives were worthless, people were seen only as soldiers

        And entire world was turning to burning hell

        Why didn’t we become smarter Isn’t it’s time already

        To understand as a matter of fact that more important

        For hammer of war to stop clutter

        Tanks’ place is in museums

        Let them quietly rust there

        Even as toys

        Kids don’t need to know them
