"We Don't Wanna Put In" is a 2009 song by Stephane & 3G and will be the Georgian entry to the Eurovision Song Contest 2009, composed by Stefane Mgebrishvili and written by Bibi Kvachadze.[1][2][3]
The song caused some controversy as it can be perceived to contain political references to former Russian president Vladimir Putin in the lyrics.[3][4] In the face of the pressure to make alterations to the lyrics from some of Russia's cultural figures, on February 20, 2009, the official Georgian Eurovision spokesman said the song will not be amended.[5]
The song will compete in the first semi-final on 12 May 2009.
