Let's drink to all the Russian gas (the Gazprom song)
Translation into plain English Be afraid
Usage example “Don’t bother trying, you’ll never ever find a surer friend than Gazprom.”
Lucy’s commentary Best company song 2009. A middle-aged Russian manager sings lyrics that manage to be both sinister and sentimental at the same time. It is all here in the video: fur hats, key changes, deer running and cute kiddies peering into pipes. The effect is Borat, only more surreal.
