Kim,
first, here is the original folksong (including tune and English translation) that Alex uses for his parody.

Now here's a singable but not rhyming (and not very verbatim) English translation of Alex's lyrics:

Do I have, do I have, do I have to see the loo,
have to see the loo, but the loo I cannot find.
Do I climb, do I climb, do I climb aboard a plane,
climb aboard a plane, and I fly to Russia, ouch!

When I wake up, I do find myself
in the Moscow police hands.

I fly back, I fly back, I fly back again at home,
back again at home, where they led me to a cell.

Back to you, Alex, for corrections and/or rhymes.

Wolfgang
