The Bulganin Boat Song
by DON CORTES
HEAVE HO! Here we go!
This is worse than working for Intourist.
I’ve rowed for Mollet, I’ve rowed for Pineau,
For Nehru and Twining and Madame Tito,
And I‘m sure that isn’t the end of the list.
This is worse than working for Intourist.
I’ve rowed for Mollet, I’ve rowed for Pineau,
For Nehru and Twining and Madame Tito,
And I‘m sure that isn’t the end of the list.
Heave ho! I‘m starting to sweat!
This is worse than working for Intourist.
My double-breasted suit is wet,
And Nikita’s as drunk as a lord can get.
I wonder what Joe would have thought of this.

I wonder what Joe would have thought of this.
Heave ho! I‘m ready to swoon.
This is worse than working for Intourist.
I guess I‘ll be rowing Sir Anthony soon
On this ruddy, muddy, Lenin-damned lagoon.
But row we must to coexist.

Heave ho! I’m all in a stew.
This is worse than working for Intourist.
But I bet I‘ll row Ike and Mamie too
Before my career as an oarsman‘s through.
I wonder if golf is as bad as this.
