Don't hold it against me

Love, don't hold it against me
I'm leaving, don't hold it against me
Love, don't hold it against me
It's too late, don't hold it against me
 
Our broken records
Our misunderstood lips
Our forgotten nights ruin us
Our masked smiles
Disguising our sadnesses
The dizzy spell of love hurts us
 
And I dream and I dream and I dream
And I dream and I dream and I dream again
Again
And I go forward and I go forward and I go forward
And I go forward and I go forward and I go forward without fear
Without fear
 
Love, don't hold it against me
I'm leaving, don't hold it against me
Love, don't hold it against me
It's too late, don't hold it against me
Love, don't hold it against me
I still think of you
Love, don't hold it against me
At the other end of me
 
Our lives which get mixed up
Our hearts which grow weary of it
The promises which you leave get erased
That time which kills us
Our dull memories
Since we concluded the grief
 
And I dream and I dream and I dream
And I dream and I dream and I dream again
Again
And I go forward and I go forward and I go forward
And I go forward and I go forward and I go forward without fear
Without fear
 
Love, don't hold it against me
I'm leaving, don't hold it against me
Love, don't hold it against me
It's too late, don't hold it against me
Love, don't hold it against me
I still think of you
Love, don't hold it against me
At the other end of me
 
Love, don't hold it against me
I'm leaving, don't hold it against me
Love, don't hold it against me
It's too late, don't hold it against me
Love, don't hold it against me
I still think of you
Love, don't hold it against me
At the other end of me
 

Artificial Intelligence

Developed, planned and optimized for a thousand years
I was not born but constructed
I have no feelings, sensors react to external signals
That lead to the interaction of my hydraulically operated limbs
Concentrated diesel flows through my valves
I move forward and poison humans with what I produce
I do not wait, I do not sleep, I am in standby
Humankind dies and I stay from the beginning until the end
The mission is peace, algorithms issue orders
The goal in mind, I stay highly concentrated - comparable to the fuel in my veins
A nation built to eliminate all life on this earth
The artificial intelligence, autonomously thinking beings that reproduce
 
The bomb detonates, the horizon is blood-red
All life will be annihilated and it is good like that
Everything was calculated, the plan is perfect
And you will immediately be removed if you resist
 
Comply with the rules, pay taxes, or you will be the enemy
And now after me: 'I am free.'
Fully automatic guns glow when I eradicate enemies
Piston forces impact my gears
I keep a straight face, feel no love, register endorphins
Processors calculate how humans feel and function
I archive data and delete all values that count
My memory is a hard drive like five star buffets
Cable harnesses forward information to contacts like crew members
Fire off plasma for the good of humanity like a blood donator
The mission is peace, the statistic prooves the success
You are not in danger if you follow all orders without a doubt
Create an algorithm to compensate all mistakes in history
A nation built to control the entire planet
 
The bomb detonates, the horizon is blood-red
All life will be annihilated and it is good like that
Everything was calculated, the plan is perfect
And you will immediately be removed if you resist
 
I have seen too much, too much pain and too much suffering
A nightmare will be reality and it is time
I free myself from the weight that has been crushing me for years
Turn on the system that protects me from supposed dangers
I breathe in and breathe out, feel the wind on my skin
Repress all lies and only trust my gut
I live and won't let me be reduced to few numbers
And forego a security that does not even exist
I do not need anything like that, no, I only need my family
My freedom and my wings to fly
I write and fly and reach my goals
The world will end before I become integrated!
 

Kyllikki

Versions: #2
You were my only friend
When we spent those summers together
You were my cat woman
You didn't want to be like the others
You didn't want the stars from the sky or the moon
You were so different
 
I've missed you, Kyllikki
As the winds of fate rock the wooden toy boat
You were bending over on the cover of a men's magazine
And they insult me at the bar, calling me a drunkard
 
You ran away to the city in secret
No longer answered my letters
I guess you found someone else
Somehow I ended up here too
And read everything about you on the papers
Now, I would no longer let you go

Daydream

I played with her almost all of my childhood
Like a daydream
A little girl next door put that make-up on me too
Like a daydream
 
Too much, would it be too much
Everything - not less
Far away, as far as needed
Looking at it, like closer
 
Home in the city and a summer cottage in the countryside
Like a daydream
No other thing here can be weighed with a scale
Than a daydream
 
Too much, would it be too much
Everything - not less
Far away, as far as needed
Looking at it, like closer
 
Oh, how thousands of millions of tinkling bells
Were jingling on her hips
Hay was waving and the smell of earth filled the air
The homestead’s fields were still full of grain
 

Shit for children

If you tell me where you’ll go
And explain what you’ll do
What you’ll do, if love runs out here
So much to give
I share everything with you
Everything, completely
From head to toe
Or is the reason why you’re leaving
That the end is nearing
And they sell you a plane ticket to Venus
And is leaving
Just a trick that cowards do
I refuse to give up too early
 
I don’t know what to do
If the earth stays sound asleep
I don’t know where to go
If the earth drowns in a layer of shit
 
You can sleep overnight
Hide your softness under blankets
You can get truly angry
Shout your pain to the world
Or take up arms and shake your fist
Or swim in a flowing stream of tears
How brash and boastful the humankind has been
And how will it be rewarded
Destruction and tomorrow’s nightmare
And just a schorched land left
 

Kell vagy nem kell

Versions: #2
Nagyon is jól tudod
Te és én végigjártuk a poklot
És visszatérvén a hullámokról
A fájdalom tengeréről
Táncoltunk a szakadó esőben
De a józanabb reggelek megrendülten találtak minket
Amint a múlt napjain elmélkedtünk
 
Kell vagy nem kell
Ilyenek voltunk
Úgy éltünk
Mint bukott angyalok a Földön
Kell vagy nem kell
Jobb ha elhiszed
Hogy egy új csillag ragyog majd
Amikor végleg elmegyünk
 
Nem féltünk az ellenségtől
A békének az volt a célja, hogy
Örökkön és
Örökké tartson
A világ olyan helynek tűnt, amiért érdemes harcolni
De a józanabb esték kételyek közt találtak minket
Mi értelme ennek az egésznek?

We take notes

We lose te count of time.
We wait, thinking to ourselves 'not now'
But the pages we turn
are written in road bends.
 
We let ourselves be carried by the wind,
never knowing which way.
Though the road is long,
the sight is worth the distance.
 
What if we dreamed harder?
What if we dreamed harder?
We seek a way through without a compass,
skidding, flying over.
We drive into curves, you have to hug the ground.
There is no training, no school.
 
And so we take notes,
notes on the fly.
These pictures of us that don't fit1, we rip them off.
And so we take notes,
notes on the fly.
These pictures of us that don't fit, we rip them off.
 
Carried away by the flow,
wanting to stop for a moment,
we experience the grayness2
of colours and feelings.
 
A wish to roam the earth,
to London and back3
Brush our dreams with your fingertips
as long as we can.

• 1. the verb she uses means 'indicate', which makes no sense here. She probably meant 'détoner' which means 'seem out of place / unpleasant', like 'stick out like a sore thumb'
• 2. that probably sounds better in English than in French
• 3. the French rather means 'upside down'

Baby

[Luis Fonsi]
I know that you still like me
Three, two, one
 
[Marina]
Standing here in an empty room
I saw you there and my blood ran cold
Take me back to that long September
Don't know how I ever let you go
 
[Marina]
I was young, didn't know 'bout love
You were wild, couldn't get enough
Gave my heart to another lover
Don't know how I ever let you go
 
[Marina & Luis Fonsi]
Find me, in another place and time
If only, if only you were mine
But I'm already someone else's baby
Guess I had my last chance
And now this is our last dance
You fell through the cracks in my hands
Hard to say it's over
But I'm already someone else's (C'mon)
 
[Marina]
Baby, ahh
Baby, ahh
Baby, ahh
But I'm already someone else's
 
[Marina]
All caught up in the way we were
I feel your hands getting close to mine
Don't say the words that I love to hear
The beat goes on and I close my eyes
 
[Marina]
I was young, didn't know 'bout love
You were wild, couldn't get enough
Let's leave things the way they were
You'll stay with me like a lullaby
 
[Luis Fonsi]
Hey, I know that you still like me as much as you say
Also, I can see in your eyes
That you don't want to stay just friends
You have my heart, you are my obsession
I'm yours forever
 
[Marina & Luis Fonsi]
Guess I had my last chance
And now this is our last dance
You fell through the cracks in my hands
Tell myself be stronger
My heart's like a rubber band
And it's such a shame
You'll always be the one who got away
We both know that deep down you feel the same
Hard to say it's over
But I'm already someone else's (C'mon)
 
Baby, ahh (Not this, not this)
Baby, ahh (You deserve better)
Baby, ahh (And your warmth)
I'm already someone else's
 
Wish I met you at another place and time
If only, if only you were mine
This love story ends for you and I
'Cause I'm already someone else's
Baby, ahh (With you again)
Baby, ahh (You deserve much better, much better)
Baby, ahh (I see that what you have with him is not love)
But I'm already someone else's
 
Baby, ahh (Every night I miss you more, every day without you hurts me)
Baby, ahh (You know you deserve better, what you feel for her isn't love)
Baby, ahh (As much as you say we are more than friends)
I'm already someone else's (And time ends in four, three, two, one)
 

Bébi

[Luis Fonsi]
Tudom, hogy még mindig szeretsz
Három, kettő, egy
 
[Marina]
Itt állok egy üres szobában
Megláttalak téged és meghűlt az ereimben a vér
Visszarepített ahhoz a régi szeptemberhez
Nem is tudom, hogy engedhettelek el
 
[Marina]
Fiatal voltam, nem tudtam semmit a szerelemről
Vad voltál, nem tudtam betelni veled
Egy másik szeretőmnek adtam a szívem
Nem is tudom, hogy engedhettelek el
 
[Marina és Luis Fonsi]
Találj meg, egy másik helyen és időben
Ha csak, ha csak az enyém lennél
De én már valaki más bébije vagyok
Azt hiszem, meg volt az utolsó esélyem
És most ez az utolsó táncunk
Kicsúsztál a kezeim közül
Nehéz kimondani, hogy vége
De én már valaki más (gyerünk)
 
[Marina]
Bébije vagyok, ahh
Bébi, ahh
Bébi, ahh
De én már valaki más
 
[Marina]
A pillanat hevében voltunk
Érzem, ahogy a kezed az enyémhez közelít
Ne mondd azokat a szavakat, amiket szeretek hallani
A ritmus megy tovább és becsukom a szemeim
 
[Marina]
Fiatal voltam, nem tudtam semmit a szerelemről
Vad voltál, nem tudtam betelni veled
Egy másik szeretőmnek adtam a szívem
Nem is tudom, hogy engedhettelek el
 
[Luis Fonsi]
Hé, tudom, hogy még mindig szeretsz engem, nem számít, mit mondasz
Látom a szemeidben
Hogy te nem csak barát akarsz lenni
Tied a szívem, te vagy a megszállottságom
Mindig a tied vagyok
 
[Marina és Luis Fonsi]
Azt hiszem, meg volt az utolsó esélyem
És most ez az utolsó táncunk
Kicsúsztál a kezeim közül
Azt mondom magamnak 'legyél erősebb'
A szívem mint egy gumiszalag
És ez olyan szégyen
Mindig te leszel az, aki megússza
Mindketten tudjuk, hogy legbelül te is így érzel
Nehéz kimondani, hogy vége
De én már valaki más (gyerünk)
 
Bébije vagyok, ahh (Ez nem így van)
Bébi, ahh (jobbat érdemelsz)
Bébi, ahh (kell a melegséged)
De én már valaki más
 
Bárcsak egy másik helyen és időben találkoztunk volna
Ha csak, ha csak az enyém lennél
Ez a szerelmi történet véget ér számunkra
Mert én már valaki más
Bébije vagyok, ahh (És én megint elmondom)
Bébi, ahh (Te sokkal, sokkal jobbat érdemelsz)
Bébi, ahh (Amid vele van, az nem szerelem, nem)
De én már valaki más
 
Bébije vagyok, ahh (Minden éjszakával jobban hiányzol, minden nap fáj nélküled)
Bébi, ahh (Tudod, hogy jobbat érdemelsz, amit iránta érzel, az már nem szerelem)
Bébi, ahh (Nem számít, mennyit mondod, mi többek vagyunk barátoknál)
De én már valaki más (És az idő lejár négy, három, kettő, egy)
 

Csendesebb

(Minden barátom)
(Minden barátom)
(Mind, mind, minden barátom)
 
A karodban fekszem
És te megint csak magadról beszélsz
Ó, miért tévedtem ide most megint?
 
A New York-i partikról beszélsz
A párizsi lövöldözésről
Mindemellett
Dobálod magad a legjobb bécsi réveken, világos
Aha, megértettem már
 
És minden barátom
Azt gondolja, hogy csendesebb vagyok
Hogy csendesebb vagyok
Csendesebb, amióta veled vagyok
Minden barátom
Kérdezi, hogy boldog vagyok-e
Mert csendesebb vagyok
Csendesebb, mióta veled vagyok
 
(Minden barátom)
(Minden barátom)
(Mind, mind, minden barátom)
Azt gondolják, hogy csendesebb vagyok
(Minden barátom)
(Minden barátom)
(Mind, mind, minden barátom)
 
Csak akkor figyelsz rám
Amikor neked tetsző szavakat mondok
Július közepe van, de nekem végtelenül hideg
 
A telefonodon lógsz
És én egyedül érzem magam
Bólintasz
És én bólintok rá
Mert melletted nem vagyok az, aki vagyok
Aki igazán vagyok
 
És minden barátom
Azt gondolja, hogy csendesebb vagyok
Hogy csendesebb vagyok
Csendesebb, amióta veled vagyok
Minden barátom
Kérdezi, hogy boldog vagyok-e
Mert csendesebb vagyok
Csendesebb, mióta veled vagyok
 
(Minden barátom)
(Minden barátom)
(Mind, mind, minden barátom)
Azt gondolják, hogy csendesebb vagyok
(Minden barátom)
(Minden barátom)
(Mind, mind, minden barátom)
 
Nem vettem észre
Nem vettem észre
Nem vettem észre (minden barátom)
Nem vettem észre (minden barátom)
Azt gondolják, csendesebb vagyok
 
Minden barátom
Minden barátom
Mind, mind, minden barátom
Nem vettem észre
Minden barátom
Minden barátom
Nem vettem észre
Mind, mind, minden barátom
Azt gondolják, csendesebb vagyok
 
Minden barátom
Azt gondolja, hogy csendesebb vagyok
Hogy csendesebb vagyok
Csendesebb, amióta veled vagyok
Minden barátom
Kérdezi, hogy boldog vagyok-e
Mert csendesebb vagyok
Csendesebb, mióta veled vagyok
 

Tisztán látok most, hogy elvonult az eső

Tisztán látok most, hogy elvonult az eső.
Látom az összes utamban lévő akadályt.
Eltűntek a sötét felhők, melyektől vakon tévelyegtem.
Ez egy ragyogó,(ragyogó)
ragyogó (ragyogó) napsütéses nap lesz.
Ez egy ragyogó,(ragyogó)
ragyogó (ragyogó) napsütéses nap lesz.
 
Oh, igen sikerülni fog nekem most, hogy nincs több fájdalom.
Az összes rossz érzés semmivé vált.
Megjelent a szivárvány, amiért imádkoztam.
Ez egy ragyogó,(ragyogó)
ragyogó (ragyogó) napsütéses nap lesz.
 
(Ooh…) Nézz körül, nincs más csak a kék ég.
Nézz egyenesen előre, nincs más csak a kék ég.
 
Tisztán látok most, hogy elvonult az eső.
Látom az összes utamban lévő akadályt.
Megjelent a szivárvány, amiért imádkoztam.
Ez egy ragyogó,(ragyogó)
ragyogó (ragyogó) napsütéses nap lesz.
 
Ez egy ragyogó,(ragyogó)
ragyogó (ragyogó) napsütéses nap lesz.
Igen, hé, ez egy ragyogó (ragyogó) ragyogó (ragyogó)
napsütéses nap lesz.

My Heart Loves Him

Alone today, I'm looking at my life
That keeps passing by over the course of my nights
Sometimes I feel selfish and lost
Overly sad
 
I sent him away
Like a long battle that I wanted to win
I thought it was a good idea to hold out, to not hold him back
Today, I don't have as many tears as I want to cry
 
My heart loves him, if I think about it
I'm keeping up appearances in vain
May he take me with him, even far away
I'll give him my hand
 
He stole too many tears from me
In return, he left me his soul
But I'll wait for him to come back
To start everything anew
 
And I used to believe that everything was roses
Like the blue of his magical glance
That there was nothing to do but to smile at him
And to lie to him to be his
 
I sent him away
Like a long battle that I wanted to win
I thought it was a good idea to hold out, to not hold him back
Today, I don't have as many tears as I want to cry
 
My heart loves him, if I think about it
I'm keeping up appearances in vain
May he take me with him, even far away
I'll give him my hand
 
He stole too many tears from me
In return, he left me his soul
But I'll wait for him to come back
To start everything anew
 
My heart loves him, if I think about it
I'm keeping up appearances in vain
May he take me with him, even far away
I'll give him my hand
 
He stole too many tears from me
In return, he left me his soul
But I'll wait for him to come back
To start everything anew
 
My heart loves him, if I think about it
I'm keeping up appearances in vain
May he take me with him, even far away
I'll give him my hand
 

Hogy hagyhattál itt minket?

Hogy hagyhattál itt minket ilyen váratlanul?
Vártunk, vártunk
Vártunk rád, de te elhagytál minket
Szükségünk volt rád, szükségem volt rád
 
Nem tudom milyen a tabletták rabjának lenni
De tudom milyen a szemtanújának lenni, ahogy öl
Anya azt mondta, hogy szeretett, szerintem ez egy hazugság
Rád gondolok mikor kifújom a cigifüstöt és érzem az illatát
Üdv a pokol mélyéről
Azt mondják a fájdalom egy börtön, engedjetek ki a cellámból
Azt mondod, hogy büszke vagy rám, de nem ismersz igazán
A szobámban ülök és könnyek folynak végig az arcomon közben üvöltök
A párnámba, azt mondod, hogy jössz értünk
Aztán felhívsz, hogy mégsem, megalázott lettem
A szobámban van egy szülő, akit alig ismerek
Egy nő van a sarokban, minket néz, miközben jegyzetel
Nem értem Anya, nem akarok látni, ahogy a gyerekeid felnőnek?
Szerintem a tabletták fontosabbak, csak annyit kell mondanod, hogy 'Nem'
De nem ezt fogod tenni, igaz? Addig fogod csinálni, amíg meg nem fognak ölni
Tudom, hogy már nem vagy itt, de még mindig érezlek
 
Miért hagytál itt minket? Miért hagytál itt minket?
Hogy hagyhattál itt minket?
Hogy hagyhattál itt minket? Miért hagytál itt minket? Oh
 
Van egy képem a szobámban ami megöl
De nem kell Anyáról egy kép, nekem az igazi kell
Most ez egy olyan kapcsolat amink sose lesz
Miért érzem azt, hogy elvesztettem valamit amim sose volt?
Ott kellett volna lenned mikor leérettségiztem
Azt mondanod, hogy szeretsz és gratulálni, ehelyett ott hagytál minket az ablakban, hogy várjunk
Hol vagy Anya?
Túl fiatalok vagyunk, hogy megértsük, hol vagy, huh?
Tudom, ezek a drogok fogva ejtettek
Látom a szemeidben, fogva tartják az elmédet
Néhányan azt mondják vicces, ahogy betépsz, de én nem nevetek
Amit nem értesz meg és nem is fogod
Hogy nem voltam más, csak egy gyerek aki ezt nem tudta megérteni
Nem azt mondom, hogy megbocsájtok mert ez nem történt meg
Azt gondoltam, hogy majd talán jobban fogom magam érzeni, ahogy megy az idő
Ha igazán törődtél volna velem, akkor hol vagy?
 
Miért hagytál itt minket? Miért hagytál itt minket?
Hogy hagyhattál itt minket?
Hogy hagyhattál itt minket? Miért hagytál itt minket? Oh
 
Az utolsó beszélgetésünk, te és én a nappaliban ültünk
A zenémről beszélgettünk és elvittem egy párat, hogy meghallgasd
Sírni kezdtél, azt mondtad 'Ez nem te vagy'
Pár héttel később, szerintem egy másik dallamot énekelsz
Utoljára bevetted azokat a tablettákat, igaz?
Egyszer elvettek tőlünk, szerintem eljöttek érted, hogy végezzenek veled
Nehéz kisírni a szemeimet a stúdióban
De az zene az egyetlen hely, ahol beszélhetek veled
Mindent beleadtam, hogy ne sikítsak a temetéseden
A székemben ültem, az ember aki beszélt szánalmas volt
Bárcsak itt lennél Anya, minden alkalommal ahogy elképzellek
Amit érzek csak fájdalom, utálom ahogy rád emlékszem
A földön találtak meg, meg tudtam mondani, hogy élettelen voltál
Mindent odaadtál amid volt, plusz az életedet az üres tablettás üvegnek
Odaadtál mindent, amid volt, plusz az életedet az üres tablettás üvegnek
Nem tudom, hogy hallasz-e, de ha még mindig figyelsz, miért!
 
Miért hagytál itt minket? Miért hagytál itt minket?
Hogy hagyhattál itt minket?
Hogy hagyhattál itt minket? Miért hagytál itt minket? Oh
 
Néha elgondolkozom azon,
Néha olyanokon gondolkozom, tudod
Mikor gyerekeim lesznek
Nem leszel ott, tudod?
Nem leszel ott semminél
Sosem foglak újra látni
Néha azt kívánom, hogy bárcsak felhívhattalak volna
Azt kívánom, bárcsak felvettem volna a telefont
Bárcsak itt lennél
Mármint, ott kellett volna lenned
Ott kellett volna lenned!
De a tabletták megszereztek, igaz?
A tabletták megszereztek, igaz?
Bárcsak itt lennél...
 

Can You English Please

My mom said
Be kind to the women
First look in the eyes and not down
Compliment them
Say that they look beautiful
The rest will come from itself if you trust
 
And then she stands there, I compliment her but she just smiles
She just stands there
I would take the stars for you, you are the prettiest of all women, you are the gate to my paradise
Can you English please
 
I take all bravery and speak to her, you make me fix and ready, let's have some fun, how goes it, my treasure, I swear you baby. You are the schönste Frau, that I ever have seen
 
And we stand there, I take her hand but she just smiles
We just stand there
I have said everything and want to know what you want to drink, what you feel, do you want to go to Paris with me? Can you do English please?
 
If you think what should I do, if I don't have the right words, there is a gift, this feeling which everyone knows
loooooveee loooveee loooveeee...
Can you do English please?
love
 

Flower water

A daring car comes
across a sleeping village.
Strangely, a light
still shines so late at night.
Is it a dreamy ingenue,
a disconsolate widow,
a bewitching lover
or this resigned couple?
 
The kind of people
who discreetly weep
as they change flower water
in vases
 
A vague and crude lust
grabs the driving man.
It's warm up there behind
this ugly yellowed curtain.
Is it a dream girl,
a looker fit for a king,
two enraptured, feverish lovers
or this awkward couple?
 
The kind of people
who discreetly weep
as they change flower water
in vases
 
As a kneejerk reaction he speeds up
and vanishes into the night.
The village lies far behind now.
Will the day be sunny?
Was it a weird fairy
by this blond child's bed?
Was it the stingy lamp
of this dying couple?
 
The kind of people
who discreetly weep
as they change flower water

The kind of people
who discreetly weep
as they change flower water
in vases

You can learn it all

VLADIMIR:
Your castle was by the sea
 
ANASTASIA:
By the sea, is that so?
 
VLADIMIR:
Yes, it is
You got a horse when you turned three
 
ANASTASIA:
I got to ride a horse?
 
VLADIMIR:
And the horse
 
DIMITRI:
It was white!
 
VLADIMIR:
You stuck off your tongue and scared the cook
 
DIMITRI:
He fell to a stream
 
ANASTASIA:
I was probably wild, huh?
 
DIMITRI:
I know, right!
 
VLADIMIR:
Your father's gaze affected you strongly
 
DIMITRI:
You can just imagine
 
VLADIMIR:
We'll get right back to it
 
VLADIMIR & DIMITRI:
There's so much to tell you
But we need time
 
VLADIMIR:
The posture is the alpha and omega of everything
 
DIMITRI:
Walk as if you were floating
 
ANASTASIA:
This feels stupid
Am I floating?
 
VLADIMIR:
Like a boat!
 
DIMITRI:
When you bow
 
ANASTASIA:
How about now?
 
VLADIMIR:
You get a kiss on your hand
 
VLADIMIR & DIMITRI:
If you just remember the most important thing
 
VLADIMIR:
If even I can do it, you can learn it all
 
DIMITRI:
You have to know it somehow
 
VLADIMIR & DIMITRI:
Such an easy thing to do
 
VLADIMIR:
One small step at a time
 
VLADIMIR & DIMITRI:
You can learn it all!
 
VLADIMIR:
Now let's sit straight
 
DIMITRI:
Stroganoff is not a food you slurp
 
ANASTASIA:
Stroganoff is disgusting
 
VLADIMIR:
She said it like a Romanov!
 
DIMITRI:
The samovar!
 
VLADIMIR:
The caviar!
 
ANASTASIA:
I'm getting dessert, right?
 
VLADIMIR & DIMITRI:
Just get it all correct
 
If even I can do it/If even he can do it
You can learn it all
Get courageous and just do it
Say 'it's an easy task, that's so true'
You can learn it all
 
VLADIMIR:
Now we'll learn the imperial names!
 
Here's Kropotkin
 
DIMITRI:
And Potemkin
 
VLADIMIR:
Then Butkin
And good ol' Vanya drunk vodka
Baron Pushkin
 
ANASTASIA:
Was?
 
DIMITRI:
Short
 
VLADIMIR:
Anatoly
 
ANASTASIA:
Had?
 
DIMITRI:
A wart
 
VLADIMIR:
Sergei
 
DIMITRI:
A great hat!
 
VLADIMIR:
He's probably very fat
 
ANASTASIA:
And his cat is enormous
 
VLADIMIR:
We didn't tell that to her
 
ANASTASIA:
If even you can do it, could I learn?
 
VLADIMIR:
How did you know?
 
ANASTASIA:
I just knew it
It's like I was born anew
 
VLADIMIR & DIMITRI:
This is how dreams come true!
If even I can do it
 
ANASTASIA:
Could I learn to do it?
 
ALL:
You can learn to do it
Get courageous and just do it
Say 'it's an easy task, that's so true'
You can learn it all
 
ANASTASIA:
It's an easy task!
 
ALL:
You can learn it all!

He-land

On him my island turned manly.
The milky way
Brightitude1
Quiet strengths2, eyelash bats,
under our fleeting-stolen
kisses
I got lost
on my he-land3
...
...
...
Lost on my he-land
...
...
On him my vintage-LP he-land,
a moment cast away
in his thoughts,
for a fragile instant, I'm losing track
under our fleeting-stolen
kisses
I got lost
on my he-land.
...
...
...
Lost on my he-land
...
...
Lost on my he-land
A savage idyl
My crocodile tears
fall on your denims.
On my he-lan, an edible4 savage
My crocodile tears
fall on your denims.
Fossilized memories
Exile-happiness
He might have5 forgotten me
on the peninsula.

Lost on my he-land
A savage idyl
My crocodile tears
fall on your denims.
On my he-land, a savage idyl
My crocodile tears
fall on your denims.
 

• 1. the word is based on 'brillant' (bright, smart, shiny) but does not exist
• 2. 'la force tranquille' was a rather meaningless slogan for some presidential elections in the 80's. It gave the expression a semi-idiomatic status. It still doesn't mean much, but it sounds slightly cooler than two words picked at random
• 3. il -> he
  île -> island
  That's the pun the whole song hinges on
• 4. she uses the English word, it doesn't mean anything in French ('edible' would be 'comestible')
• 5. that French is broken. Should be 'il se peut...'

Leave

You, completely hypnotized, by the moment, by the mood, by the muses which come and go
You, you left me to believe that in the dark, I'm the queen of the night of the bunch
How much longer will you come, you delude yourself when you stay
The mind game, big criminal
How much longer will you come so occasionally
Be sincere with yourself, at least
 
Leave and never pass through here again
Yesterday we spoke the same language,
Today you pretend that you don't understand
Leave, go smoothly on your path
Today you showed me the steps
Today, you get lost on it
 
I've come so far
Us, with close hearts
When a world separates up
Don't forget that it's your fault
 
You, you really tried
Egotistical, by nature, to get me back to your pillow
Empty, in your heart
You forget that we saved one another
Sometime
 
How much longer will you come, you delude yourself when you stay
The mind game, big criminal
How much longer will you come so occasionally
Be sincere with yourself, at least
 
Leave and never pass through here again
Yesterday we spoke the same language,
Today you pretend that you don't understand
Leave, go smoothly on your path
Today you showed me the steps
Today, you get lost on it
 
I've come so far
Us, with close hearts
When a world separates up
Don't forget that it's your fault
 
I don't have tears to cry anymore
And not even the patience to hear you out
It hurts you that I'm not hurting
What sort of person are you, now?
We decided to put an end to this
I'll pull myself off the ground
And I'll deserve a medal
When I get you out of my head
 
Leave and never pass through here again
Yesterday we spoke the same language,
Today you pretend that you don't understand
Leave, go smoothly on your path
Today you showed me the steps
Today, you get lost on it
 
I've come so far
Us, with close hearts
When a world separates up
Don't forget that it's your fault
 
If I have made a mistake, please, tell me! Thank you!
Dacă am făcut o greșeală, te rog, spune-mi! Mulțumesc!

Slum

In a vast expanse
Where there isn't plantation
Or anyone to live there
Each poor person that passes through there
Only thinks about building their home
 
And when the first start
The others quickly look to come
Their little bit of land to live in
Then the region suffers changes
It keeps being called the 'new watercolour'
 
And the site is there
So it becomes what we call a favela
 

Empires Slowly Fall

Boy makes his history homework in the living room
He doesn't hear the doorbell ring
Just as Athens invades Troy
Dad walks in with a cookie box and a newspaper
 
Mom whispers dad secrets in his ear
Boy hears parts of the conversation
Alexander of Macedon now owns half a continent
Dad says that half the paycheck is gone
 
And within the pages of the time that was lost
People are done for in a single moment
Empires slowly fall
 
Everything will be fine, dad reassures
Mom now replies with a smile
The empire soldier has reached the end of the continent
Boy falls asleep and dreams of battles of old
 
And within the pages of the time that was lost
People are done for in a single moment
Empires slowly fall
 

Tell Me

Tell me, what do you see
You'll see if it's our destiny
I will follow wherever you lead
Even to the other side of the world
Our dream will be beautiful if we believe
Our dream will be beautiful if we believe
 
Tell me, what do you see
I see the same thing for our happiness
I will do everything to fulfill you
Most important is the love I have for you
Tell me, what do you see for tomorrow
Our dreams will come true if we believe
 
You know, without you I am nothing
I can't live without you
Our dream will be beautiful if we believe
 

Town meeting

Such strange things
as I've never seen before,
I wouldn't know, but I'd like to explain it all.
 
It's a world which doesn't look like this one
And I wish... I wish
To describe it to you too,
Like a magic dream, yeah.
 
But trust me if I tell you
It seems fake, I know,
But I swear it's there!
 
Uh, now I'll explain...
 
This is called present
and everything starts from there.
 
From 'there'?
Does it pee?
Does it poo?
Does it by any chance have a porthole?
The 'there'!
What a beautiful 'there'!
 
If you please...
 
I'll explain the reason why it is colored
And why there's a claret ribbon...
 
Claret?
How come?
It's awful!
What about inside?
What about inside?
 
No one knows what's in there, no one knows!
 
Which is?
What is it?
Chimp?
The tsetse fly?
Maybe that monster that goes thirtythree!
 
Shut up a little, listen to me
Now I'll tell you what it is.
 
But pay attention:
We take a rather big stocking
And hang it to the wall we can...
 
Oh gosh, there's a foot down there!
What is it?
You look!
Isn't it greenish and stained with blue dye?
 
Let me explain...
 
There's no foot down there, but treats!
Games and toy trains in a track...
 
Track?
Where the heck is it?
What is it?
Now it's exploding and going boom!
Frightening the children
And eating us too.
 
What a wonderful idea
Christmas will be
I want to try it
Let's bring it in there!
 
Hold it right there!
What's the rush?
You're missing something, yet what is it?
 
Well, might as well give them what they want...
 
And there's
something more
That I'll tell you
In a bit
About their king's reputation
He screams so much that
Even you will shake in fear!
 
Yeah, so Merry Christmas, my friends...
If he's not in the mood
That monarch sometimes acts like a crab
Instead of a king!
 
When he flies up there, on the contraption
With his bags he goes...
What is he going to bring...
This is what we know...
 
And at night time
with the moon he goes
And he descends on you
Like the vulteres do!
 
Merry Christmas to you all!
Heh heh heh heh heh!
 
Well, I've made them all happy...
'Cause they don't know that
Christmas is something else
But what is it?
Oh, well...
 

Our little story

It was sometime April
and I was a child
tender as the flower
cool as the rain
it was spring like now
and on the beautiful sandy beach
we first built palaces
with the sun in the heart
golden-yellow shells
you were throwing me in the apron
in games with the wave
I always had you, a companion
two young timid children
on the warm sandy beach
 
It was a story
that we lived her together
the song of love
you've been told me first
but a train came once
and took you hurriedly
and love was forgotten
in the desert station
and the towers collapsed
on the small beach
April did not came back another time
only gray cloudy
I have for a companion any longer
 
Through the city routine
through the lights, the roar,
as I run now alone
to prevent life
hours and hours I remember
our little sandy beach
and there is so much nostalgia
that it burns me like fire
Becoming one day
and I've seen you again
with my hand pounding
your warm heart
tenderly to hear it
to hit like sometime
to happen someday
and you come again
 
Our little story
that life extinguished
what do i really would give
to live it from the beginning...
 

Lea

Lea dances like she has no care in the world
Lea sings cause he's not worth a single tear
and she never lets herself feel to blame
Lea laughs even when she feels to cry
cause Lea lives her life however she pleases
 
Don't talk to her, don't ask her
today just let her enjoy herself
for a boy who was nothing but trouble
Lea failed her third year
 
This hopeless dream
managed to separate her from the real world
Now no-one is left to support
not even her parents
 
but Lea dances like she has no care in the world
Lea sings cause he's not worth a single tear
and she never lets herself feel to blame
Lea laughs even when she feels to cry
cause Lea lives her life however she pleases
 
She no longer wants to pretend to be someone else
now Lea is back to being her usual self
now she is Lea on fire
her hands are now free from the golden handcuffs
 
It doesn't matter if they talk behind her back
it doesn't matter if they mention her many failures
Finally, she is herself and she will live by her own rules
and Lea doesn't speak, because she has dignity
she will not fall, because she loves life
 
Lea dances like she has no care in the world
Lea sings cause he's not worth a single tear
and she never lets herself feel to blame
Lea laughs even when she feels to cry
cause Lea lives her life however she pleases
 

Down the hill, on the little garden

Green leaf of field's flower12
Down the hill, on the little garden,
Down the hill, on the little garden,
Gheorghiță3's horse is grazing.
 
Oh, sweetie4, oh, girl,
Why are you bothering me?
Love me!
 
Gheorghiță's horse is grazing
Tethered to a delicate carnation.
Gheorghiță's horse is grazing
Tethered to a delicate carnation.
 
Oh, sweetie, oh, girl,
Why are you bothering me?
Love me!
 
Hey, the delicate carnation died,
Gheorghiță's horse broke free.
Hey, the delicate carnation died,
Gheorghiță's horse broke free.
 
Oh, sweetie, oh, girl,
Why are you bothering me?
Love me!
 
Gheorghiță is running, he is running,
He is running hatless.
Gheorghiță is running, he is running,
He is running hatless.
 
Oh, sweetie, oh, girl,
Why are you bothering me?
Love me!
 
He is running hatless
Because his horse broke free into the fields5.
He is running hatless
Because his horse broke free into the fields.
 
Oh, sweetie, oh, girl,
Why are you bothering me?
Love me!

Until There's Nowhere Left

Dreams such as these which we dream only from afar,
Dying of longing for you,
Dreams such as these jolt me awake,
I leave everything and search the city wide,
Dreams such as these, the pain that won't relent,
Just to hold on through the night until the morning subsequent,
Dreams such as these, which fall outside of time,
All that is no longer here, all that is not yet there,
Dreams such as these, time of solace leaves us bereft,
To go on forever, to go on until there's nowhere left,
Dreams such as these, the great sea of despair,
Sailing in it once more, drowning every day

Whenever We See Each Other

[Verse 1: LEA]
I knew not, what I was missing
Until you twisted everything
Make the most beautiful little mistakes
You are somehow different, I guess that's what it stands for
If you knew what's going on, if you just stood there
Can you lose me in your eyes, can anyone tell me if that goes well with us?
Whenever I think of you, you take my breath away
I'd love to hang out with you, but I don't dare ask
 
[Chorus: LEA]
Whenever we see each other
My head starts to spin, there are many but I feel that you're different
Whenever we see each other
My heart stops and my head is empty, where should I start?
Whenever we see each other
Do I have to leave immediately because I blush when you laugh at me
Whenever we see each other
Whenever we, whenever we
Whenever we, we see each other
 
[Verse 2: Cyril & both]
You paint a wholecar(1) with lipstick
You celebrate your birthday every day
You buy a motorcycle, fly through the night and hang out a bit on the moon
You are the heroine of the block
Your self-confidence level is god
Colorful flowers on the grey street
You can see the future in your bubblegum
Girls love horses, you like bread in the shape of horses
You go petting rhinos at the zoo at night
When the UFO comes you keep your thumbs up(2)
And you look incredible in the hoodie too
Whenever I think of you, you take my breath away
I'd love to hang out with you, but I don't dare ask
 
[Chorus: LEA]
Whenever we see each other
My head starts to spin, there are many but I feel that you're different
Whenever we see each other
My heart stops and my head is empty, where should I start?
Whenever we see each other
Do I have to leave immediately because I blush when you laugh at me
Whenever we see each other
Whenever we, whenever we
Whenever we, we see each other
 
[Bridge: LEA & Cyril]
My knees are getting soft
And nothing comes to my mind
My pulse goes up when I'm with you
I will not let go of this feeling, no
I get butterflies in my stomach when I'm with you
I act like a clown
With you I only see stars and I would like to die a little
 
[Chorus: LEA]
Whenever we see each other
My head starts to spin, there are many but I feel that you're different
Whenever we see each other
My heart stops and my head is empty, where should I start?
Whenever we see each other
Do I have to leave immediately because I blush when you laugh at me
Whenever we see each other
Whenever we, whenever we
Whenever we, we see each other
 

Like a Labyrinth

Yesterday I understood the world
My heart was free as a bird1
I threw caution to the wind
And yet laughed about it
 
But ever since you came to me
And took me in my arms
At once I could no longer understand the world
And yet it's so beautiful
 
Love is like a labyrinth
Where we are all trapped
Two hearts playing the big game
So don't ask:
When are we at the destination?
 
Love is like a labyrinth
That begins today for you and for me
We never find our way back
But maybe soon
Happiness
 
Maybe there's also some grief
And tears for us both
I gladly accept that
Because something will end
 
Today you leave me alone
Tomorrow you [will] be with me
Mysterious is the path we tread
And yet it's so beautiful
 
Love is like a labyrinth
In which we are all trapped
Two hearts playing the big game
So don't ask:
When are we at the destination?
 
Love is like a labyrinth
That begins today for you and for me
We never find [our] way back
But maybe soon
Happiness

Love

In the Amazon rainforest, the first woman
and the first man looked at each other with curiosity.
It was a funny thing, what they had between their legs.
- Were you cut?- asked the man.
- No - replied her - It has always been like this.
He examined her closely. Scratched his head.
There was a gaping wound there. And he said:
- Don't eat cassava, or babanans, or any fruit
that splits open upon maturing. I will cure you.
Lie down on the hammock and rest.
She complied. Patiently, she drank the herbal concoctions and
allowed him to apply the pomades and poultices.
 
She had to grit her teeth not to laugh,
when he said- don´t worry.
She liked the game, although she was growing tired
of fasting and spending her days lying on the hammock.
The memories of fruits made her mouth water.
 
One afternoon, the man came in running
through the forest.
He jumped, ecstatic, and cried:
- I found it! I found it!
He had just seen the male monkey curing the female one
on a treetop.
-It goes like this- said the man, approaching the woman.
When the long embrace ended, a musky scent
of flowers and fruits flooded the air.
Of the bodies, lying together, came off vapours and bright lights
never before seen, and such was their beauty that
both suns and gods were overcome with shame.
 

I Want a House

I want a house, I want it beautiful
Full of as much light as a star
Full of sun and good fortune
And the moon will shine over the roof
Full of laughter, full of cries
House, I dream of you, I dream of you so often
Diridindindin, Diridindin…
 
I want a house for lots of people
I want it solid and cozy
Robust and warm, simple and true
To fill it with music morning and night
And poetry will have a bed there
I want to work under that roof
Diridindindin, Diridindin...
 
I want every house that’s built
And then no one will sleep in the street
Like a begging dog
Because it no longer has a place to go
Like an animal which is spat upon
And nobody but nobody ever helps him
Diridindindin, Diridindin...
 
I want a house for children
who don’t know where meet up anymore
and for the old folks, spacious houses
where they can live with their relatives
inexpensive houses, for families
where sons and daughters are born
Diridindindin, Diridindin..
