Baarikärpänen [English translation]

A barfly1 bit me, but why cry over it?

I found the cure for the bite a long time ago

Below the happy stars on the cognac bottle,

I've had a good feeling ever since

If you can't see my cheeks from behind2, then whose fault is that?

Well, that's social security being irresponsible

Y'know, the booze goes first to the cheeks, from there to the brain,

And from there it solves all your problems

So let's get pissed3, let's get pissed, we rush there every morning

And when the day is over we'll keep drinking

I want to be drunk all the time, on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday too

I know the police will swat me down

They wait for me in the courtyard with their barfly swatters

Oh, maybe I can stay and sleep in the bar

Because apparently I've lost my human rights

So let's get pissed, let's get pissed, we rush there every morning

And when the day is over we'll keep drinking

I want to be drunk all the time, on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday too

Now they're considering increasing the price of alcohol

I sit at the bar out of a thirst for vengeance

But it's not really worth it to land on their nose

You see, it's too easy for my wings to be plucked off

So let's get pissed, let's get pissed, we rush there every morning

And when the day is over we'll keep drinking

I want to be drunk all the time, on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday too

1. "Baarikärpänen" literally means bar-fly and has the same meaning as in English: a person who hangs around bars2. If you can't see someone's cheeks from behind their head, that means they're skinny, not fat - it sounds odd in Finnish too3. In the British English sense of getting drunk
