Viktor was sent to some Red Army town Served out his time, became a circus clown The greatest happiness he'd ever found Was making russian children glad and children lived in Leningrad But children lived in Levitown and hid in the shelters underground Until the Soviets turned their ships around and tore all the cuban missles down And in that bright Oktober sun we knew our childhood days were done And I watched my friends go off to war what do they keep on fighting for? And so my child and I come to this place To meet him eye to eye and face to face He made my daughter laugh, then we embraced We never knew what friends we had until we came to Leningrad
