lyrics

You’ve got your legs
You’ve got pair of arms
But I have no legs
And I have no arms
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I had to be a doctor
And may be a cop
But I have no legs
And same with arms
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I was in love one day
But she didn’t love
‘Cause I have no legs
And same with arms
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
First Chechen war
Next Chechen war
Tscenvali and Sukhumi
Donetsk and Mariupol
Military hospital
Russian world
Russian world
No arms no legs
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
I’m humanoid
