"Chizhyk-Pyzhik" (Russian: Чи́жик-Пы́жик) is a Russian satirical folk song which runs as follows: Чижик-пыжик, где ты был? На Фонтанке водку пил.Выпил рюмку, выпил две –Закружилось в голове.Chizhik-Pyzhik, gdje ty byl?Na fontankje vodku pil.Vypil rjumku, vypil dvje –Zakruzhilosj v golovje.Chizhik-Pyzhik, where've you been?Drank vodka on the Fontanka.Took a shot, took another –Got dizzy. Its extremely simple melody (mi-do-mi-do-fa-mi-RE, sol-sol-sol-(la-ti)-do-do-DO) is suitable for teaching small children to play piano (with a suitable "nursery" lyrics).

  • "Chizhyk-Pyzhik" (Russian: Чи́жик-Пы́жик) is a Russian satirical folk song which runs as follows: Чижик-пыжик, где ты был? На Фонтанке водку пил.Выпил рюмку, выпил две –Закружилось в голове.Chizhik-Pyzhik, gdje ty byl?Na fontankje vodku pil.Vypil rjumku, vypil dvje –Zakruzhilosj v golovje.Chizhik-Pyzhik, where've you been?Drank vodka on the Fontanka.Took a shot, took another –Got dizzy. The origin of the song in unclear. According to one urban legend, the rhyme refers to the students of the Imperial School of Jurisprudence, who frequented a pub belonging to the merchant Nefedov on the Fontanka Quay in Saint Petersburg. The school was founded by Duke Peter of Oldenburg in the nearby house #6. The students of the college wore uniforms with yellow and green colors, which resembled the colors of the bird called the siskin (Russian: чиж, chizh; hypocoristic: Russian: чижик, chizhik), and hats from fur of young reindeer (Russian: пыжик, pyzhik). Because of that, they were nicknamed Chizhiks-Pyzhiks. Its extremely simple melody (mi-do-mi-do-fa-mi-RE, sol-sol-sol-(la-ti)-do-do-DO) is suitable for teaching small children to play piano (with a suitable "nursery" lyrics). Several Russian classical composers, including Sergey Prokofyev, Isaak Dunaevsky and Rimsky-Korsakov, were inspired with Chizhik. (en)
