Watch from 0:40 on.
Amazing stuff. At risk of prolonging the reanimated-zombie status of this thread, that was by Russian singer/songwriter Vladimir Vysotsky... from the point of view of a Yak. A translation of the lyrics:
I am a fighter plane! My motor sings!
Sky is my home!
But he, who is sitting inside of me,
Thinks that he is a fighter!
In this fight I put down a Junkers plane,
I did to it what I wanted,
And he, who is sitting inside of me,
Already annoyed me to death!
In a past I was shot right through,
And mechanic mended me up,
But he, who is sitting inside of me,
Sends me again in a spin!
Out of me the bombs are falling
And bringing death to enemies base,
But it seems that the tail-plane sings
" Pe-e-e-e-a-a-ce to your home!"
That Messerschmidt plane tailgating me!
I'll leave! I am tired of wounds!
But he, who's sitting inside of me,
Decided to go ram!
What is he doing? We'll blow up!
But I will not burn on a sand!
Going against the rules of speed
I am back, up from the dive!
I'm in a lead now! Where is that plane?
Where is that daredevil? He goes on fire!
He nods and dives, singing at last
"Pe-e-e-e-a-a-ce to your home!".
He, who's sitting inside of my head,
He's left alone and in trouble!
He confuses me and goes into a dive
Straight from the deadly loop!
He speeds up, giving me a double load!
And he thinks he's first class pilot?
I have to listen and to behave,
But this is last time around!
I won't behave again! I swear!
I better lay dead on a ground!
Can't he hear that my pulse got crazy?
My blood-gasoline is too low!
My patience has ended! I can't stand it any more!
Even a machine has the end to tolerance!
But he, who was sitting inside of me,
Suddenly banged his head down!
He's killed! Finally! I fly at ease!
Burning last sparkles of strength,
But what is it? I am in deep dive,
And can't come up anyhow!
How sad! Too late! I did so little!
But let others have their luck.
It seems that at last I also sang
"Pe-e-e-e-e-a-a-ce to your home!".
