Mitch Benn is brillant. I used to live his musical parodies on the Now Show.

Vladimir Putin
Is always disputin'
The borders of neighbouring lands
He's pestering, vexing
Invading, annexing
He laughs as his empire expands.
Now Vladimir Putin
Thinks bombin' and shootin'
Is all that he needs to do
But taking Ukraine
Has been proving a pain
Did he bite off more than he can chew?
Vladimir Putin
Has got the world rootin'
For plucky Ukraine to prevail
We're praying they're coping
And wishing and hoping
This rotten invasion will fail
Vladimir Putin
Is putting the boot in
To restore Russia's glory at last
His wish he's fulfillin'
Cos Russia's the villain
Once more like it was in the past
