The Lyrics

Not sure if the US has meerkats selling insurance (comparison site), least of all Russian meerkats, but they've become very popular characters in the UK - soft toys have even been made of them! When you 'Google' them, you can find out about each one - Vassily's story inspired these parody lyrics, so do your best generic Russian accent as you read!
Vasilly calling - when I was young
Played balalaika in Motley Claw
You find me lately, props up the bar
The Queasy Mongoose, when I'm not run
My record store, ah yeah

There was a time I live too fast
Rubles will come & they will pass
I never found her (no, no), my matriarch
So never again, no insurance, crash my bike

I'll be a simples kind of kat
Just go online & Compare the Market
Gotta be a simples kind of kat
Get a great deal, insurance, yes you can

(Well...) it's not just for the car or home
All that you need's at, your disposal
& you can do this (oh yeah), if you try
All that you want, you'll find it there, & you'll be satisfied

& be a simples kind of kat
Just go online & Compare the Market
Gotta be a simples kind of kat
Get a great deal, insurance, yes you can (oh yes I will)

Oh, don't you worry Bogdan, Oleg
Just listen to Aleksandr
& you can do this (oh yeah), when it's time
All that you want, you'll find it there, & you'll be satisfied

& be a simples kind of kat
Just go online & Compare the Market
Gotta be a simples kind of kat
Get a great deal, insurance, yes you can

Maybe be a simples, real simples kat
Just go online & Compare the Market
& you'll be a simples kind of kat
