A Rumor In St. Petersburg
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
St. Petersburg is gloomy!
St. Petersburg is bleak!
My underwear got frozen standing here all week!
Oh, since the revolution our lives have been so gray!
Thank Goodness for the gossip that gets us through the day! Hey!
Have you heard!
There's a rumor in St. Petersburg?
Have you heard?
What they're saying on the street?
Although the Tsar did not survive,
One daughter may be still alive!
The Princess Anastasia!
But please do not repeat!
It's a rumor,
A legend
A mystery!
Something whispered in an alleyway
Or through a crack!
It's a rumor
That's part of our history.
They say her royal grandmama
Will pay a royal sum
To someone who can bring the princess back!
A ruble for this painting!
It's Romanov, I swear!
Count Yusopov's pajamas!
Comrade, buy the pair!
I got this from the palace.
It's lined with real fur!
It could be worth a fortune
If it belonged to her!
It's the rumor.
The legend,
The mystery!
It's the Princess Anastasia who will help us fly!
You and I friend will go down In history!
We'll find a girl to play the part and teach her what to say,
Dress her up and take her to Paree!
Imagine the reward her dear old Grandmama will pay!
Who else could pull it off but you and me?
We'll be rich
We'll be rich!
We'll be out!
We'll be out!
And St. Petersburg will have some more to talk about!
SSH!
Have you heard!
There's a rumor in St. Petersburg?
Have you heard?
What they're saying on the street?
Hey!
Hey!
Hey!
Have you heard!
There's a rumor in St. Petersburg?
Have you heard?
Comrade, what do you suppose?
A fascinating mystery!
The biggest con in history!
The princess Anastasia, alive or dead.
Who knows?
