It's Raining Money

[Vote for whoever you want, but don't vote for ROBBERS!]
 
[We always embezzle or cheat when it's possible]
 
Taxi cab fares are billed to the people
Money belonging to students is pocketed
It seems like juridical disqualification is the smallest worry
When subsidies are given haphazardly
 
The every day reality is far away
When the Finnish Parliament club is re-established
A little bullshit does not hurt
When money is ripped from the back skin of laborers
 
Nothing costs anything
When it's raining money
Nothing costs anything
When the politicians are boozing on a cruise ship
 
Money is scraped off to the good old boys' club
To you, to me, and to the pervert next door
Impertinent criminals fill their pockets
Once again the people pays the bills
 

Insobrietyman

The bar door opens
A man comes stumbling in
His glassy eyes brighten for a moment
His medulla1 puts a break to the stumbling
 
The man of good company brings someone groggy with him
He always has a woman under his arm
Truth is found at the bottom of a pint
The one close to him is found at the nearest street pole
 
Insobrietyman
It's Insobrietyman
Insobrietyman
It's Insobrietyman
 
The barkeeper decides to take control
The effects of boozing start to show
If nothing more is served at the bar
The pocket flask is filled with whisky
 
Insobrietyman
It's Insobrietyman
Insobrietyman
It's Insobrietyman
 
If your stomach starts to burn
It's a good idea to throw up in the toilet
An empty belly has room for more again
If you run out of cash, then pay with your Visa
 
Insobrietyman
It's Insobrietyman
Insobrietyman
It's Insobrietyman
 
His talking makes no sense
His mouth only utters a foreign language
It's pointless to try to make any sense out of it
When his spit flies into the face of others
 

• 1. The medulla oblongata (or medulla) is a long stem-like structure located in the brainstem.

The Ship Nazis

Together with the boys
We go on a Finland-Sweden cruise
We drink booze
We're starting to get drunk
We remember our youth
We raise our glasses
We drink our sorrows away
 
The ship nazis came
And took our boom boxes away
The ship nazis came
Took our boom boxes away

What Troubles

What really troubles man
When he no longer can tolerate liquor
Did you exchange the soda for a disco
Are you on the way to a soda-disco1
 
Why can't the Finnish man tolerate
That someone else only drinks water
I will torture you until
You too succumb to liquor
 
I guess you're a teetotaler
Since you don't like the taste of liquor
Hey, let's booze a little bit
Let's mess up your head
 
Why can't the Finnish man tolerate
That someone else only drinks water
I will torture you until
You too succumb to liquor
 
What really troubles man
When he no longer can tolerate liquor
Did you exchange the soda for a disco

Would you drink yourself nice
When you're sober, you're a total nazi
I give you a shot liquor
You're even nice, this is a start
 
Why can't the Finnish man tolerate
That someone else only drinks water
I will torture you until
You too succumb to liquor

Pseudodemocracy

Politicians are talking bullshit
Free lunches make their belly grow
There's no need for us to redeem the promises
We can forget about those when the election is over
 
Pseudodemocracy
We are being screwed over
Pseudodemocracy
People are easily fooled
 
The party discipline makes sure that
Nothing changes before I die
Even though specific promises are made
We end up with a compromise
 
Pseudodemocracy
We are being screwed over
Pseudodemocracy
People are easily fooled
 
Meaningless drivel
Unsettles old structures
In one ear and out the other
The result is always the same
 
Pseudodemocracy
We are being screwed over
Pseudodemocracy
People are easily fooled
 

Don't just exist, live!

The Monday morning annoyance
The everyday routine begins again
Five days to the weekend
A workday, and then off to sleep
 
I spend too much time at work
Nothing will compensate for these hours
On the way home, I take out my anger on others
When I'm back home, the TV makes my brain rot
 
Don't just exist, LIVE! Don't just exist, LIVE!
 
Day after day I wait for things to change
My body is screaming from lack of vitamins
On weekends I fill my head with booze
The upcoming workweek troubles my mind
 
I get through life by floating
Weekdays became a routine against pain
Work, TV, and Sandman
On weekends I'm completely exhausted
 
Nothing is going to change tomorrow
Nobody is going to get involved with your life
Raise up from the pit of fatigue
It's time to enjoy your existence!
 

In the End

Beer!!!
 
This is the end of the humorous songs
The beer and wine has been drunk
The DJ here makes my head hurt
I need more booze
 
Beer!!!
Beer!!!
 
I would like a Jaloviina1
I feel a small fire in my throat
Sure, I'm about to leave soon
But before that, a one-star Jaloviina
 
Beer!!!
Beer!!!
 
Blood is thicker than water
Sangria is sweeter than that
I can't stand this game
Once again there's goddamn heavy music

The Consultant

Agile, Kanban
A play with labels
Scrum, Lean
We halt for a bio break
 
We broaden our horizons
We create a square matrix
We crank out crap
Continuously
 
The consultant informs us
About the latest trends
The Emperor has
New clothes
 
The brain screams
Fuck this shit
But we have to hang in there
And take yet a little bit
 
Promotion to manager
Eyes are shimmering
The employee
Works his ass off
 
The consultant informs us
About the latest trends
The Emperor has
New clothes
 
This crap can't be avoided
Pretend to be happy
Prevents us from ending up
On the shit list

Fills up

Henri

Beats up his Lancia with the pedal to the metal
Steers the car onto a narrow track
Sharp left, short right
Straight stretches are no longer right
 
The car soars in the hands of the master
Henri Toivonen1 flys on the road
Whips his car to go faster
Henri beats the fastest times
HENRI, HENRI, HENRI
 
A fire bomb raised on wheels
Only luck protects you from dying
The gas tank warms your ass
The pedal goes through the floor
 
[With these fast cars we are having the acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds. From 0 to 200 km/h in 9.6. I mean this is really a merc.]
 
The car soars in the hands of the master
Henri Toivonen flys on the road
Whips his car to go faster
Henri beats the fastest times
HENRI, HENRI, HENRI
 
[My opinion is that you can't compete in a race like this with a modern car like this. This really wears you out and your brain can't keep up with all this.2]

Yes/No

You lost your burning ideology
The sense of reason disappeared along the way
Vote yes, vote no
The party discipline took your voice (vote)1
 
You got into the Big Boys Club
You got caught in the lobbyists' net
Vote yes, vote no
The party discipline took your voice (vote)1
 
Only the forthcoming election interests you
A shortcut to Europe
Vote yes, vote no
The party discipline took your voice (vote)1
 
Single minded, brown-noser
Decisions are made by a clique
Vote yes, vote no
The party discipline took your voice (vote)1
 
If you don't like the outcome
The party will kick you out
Vote yes, vote no
The party discipline took your voice (vote)1
 
Tyranny or democracy
Tyranny or democracy
The decisions are made in advance
A clique has all the power
 
Vote yes, vote no
The party discipline took your voice (vote)1
 

• The Finnish word 'ääni' has several meanings and in this case it can mean either Voice or Vote. 'Puoluekuri sinun äänen vei' may either mean that 'The party discipline made you silent (not heard)' or 'The party discipline stole your vote'

EBM

Martens boots on the feet, the hair standing straight up
In tact with the bass, we're heading downtown
Young men full of energy
Legs are moving, hands are flailing
 
[4x]
Electronic body music
 
Old men full of energy
Legs are moving, hands are flailing
Electro guys still going strong
No need to dig a grave
 
[4x]
Electronic body music
 
Beautiful women full of energy
Legs are moving, hands are flailing
Into the shadows of the city, the crowd disappears
In the distance only the echo of the bass remains

The Elite

[2x] Hard as granite, the Tampere1 EBM elite
 
Muscles trained, we feel the power
Born from frozen ground, we're men of steel
We eat iron and we shit steel
When comparing chest width all others come second
 
Haulitorni2 and Vaakon Nakki3
Rye bread and salty licorice4
Shut up and be quiet
The Elite believes in the Old School
 
The old sounds are our aces
With the gang, we listen to Anhalt5
The tummy grows, the butt gets wider
It doesn't matter, when you're together with family

M-N-T

I stand in line at the food stand
I order with my finger raised
I'll have a Vety1, please
This evening I'm not going to be disappointed
 
But it was
[4x] Without eggs
 
A frightening big guy is standing in the back
He wants to know if you'd like a beating
At the same time he starts to bluster
If you don't fight me, I will punch you in the face
 
[3x] Because you are
[4x] Without guts
 
Heading home to my wife
I pick flowers from the city garden bushes
When I get home, I open the door slightly
Quietly I touch my darling wife's bosom
 
[3x] But she says
You are
[3x] Without a dick

Stress

Day by day it's getting grayer
Even the best lose their hair
Life here starts to get tiresome
Endless anxiety leaves its traces
Bedridden because of a burnout
Cardiac pacing does not help
Even if man is cast from iron
In the end, stress will take his life
 
[4x]
Stress
 
Day by day the psyche breaks down
You must throw in the towel
In the end your mind gets blocked
Even Sandman doesn't care about sleeping
Bedridden because of a burnout
Cardiac pacing does not help
Even if man is cast from iron
In the end, stress will take his life
 
[4x]
Stress

Stress
 
[2x]
Must do more
There are fewer workers
Always faster and faster
The pace accelerates harder

Revolt

The official got drunk on wine
Got a boner from the directive
Ordinance, statue, bureaucracy
We always obey the law
 
Regulation, ban, coercion
An official's illusion of control
Common sense is lacking
Everything is regulated by laws
 
[2x]
Time to resist the authority
Time to rise to revolt
 
Revolt!
 
Dressed in a suit, a tie around his neck
Regardless of the weather, never uses his head
A life long task to enlighten citizens
The real mission to oppress people
 
[2x]
Time to resist the authority
Time to rise to revolt
 
Revolt!
 
The official got drunk on wine

The Drinking Song

[Well, what have you been doing here? I've been drinking. Continuously.
Are you still drunk? Yes, I am.]
 
I drink everything, I drink my life
I even drink my neighbor's booze
I drink the wages, I drink the retirement
I even drink my wife’s inheritance
 
I drink apartments, I drink forests
I drink the lands and the soil
I drink the tractor and I drink the horse
I drink the cats and the dogs just like a pig
 
[2x]
I drink, I drink, oh boy, I drink
I like to be drunk
I drink, I drink, oh boy, I drink
I want to sway like crazy when I'm drunk
 
[Why don't you get a real good booze on.
Surely you would have more fun being drunk.]
 
I drink myself to a hangover, I drink myself drunk
I even drink when I'm sober
I drink a few, I drink otherwise too
And after all, I drink
 
I drink in major, I drink in minor
I drink in alcomahol1
Inebriated I drink
The deposit account and the garage
 
[2x]
I drink, I drink, oh boy, I drink
I like to be drunk
I drink, I drink, oh boy, I drink
I want to sway like crazy when I'm drunk
 
And if Finland’s lakes don’t turn into booze
Please come up with an idea
We could fill up Pelkosenniemi2 with booze
And drink up Vuotos3
 
It just wouldn’t be enough
But how about this:
We could fill planet Earth with booze
Drink it up as an Earth bottle4
 
[2x]
I drink, I drink, oh boy, I drink
I like to be drunk
I drink, I drink, oh boy, I drink
I want to sway like crazy when I'm drunk
 
Hey yea let's drink again
Hey yea let's drink again
