Elina, mitä mä teen [English translation]

Ellu was a bartender*,

Working in that cafe

We once lived in its back room for a while

When I couldn't get a job for myself

We stayed up at night together

I don't know what to do

I guess I have to put the children in an institution

Is anything ever enough in a life

Couldn't this endless hook ease for a while

We tried to make ourselves to believe too

That we could have a electric oven beside the fridge

And when Ellu was always crying at the work

She got fired then

And we were freezing in the passage of a ATM

I think she was pregnant again

I stole a jacket for her somewhere

I don't know what to do

Circumstance took me its prisoner

Is anything ever enough in a life

Couldn't this endless pressure ease for a while

How often we get smut on our faces

How fast disappears money and fame

When Ellu got hit by a taxi

Which when turning to left

Didn't show a blinker 'though it claimed so

It was a simple funeral

I'd want to have it same way

I don't know what to do

I'm now numb for pain

Is anything ever enough in a life

Couldn't this endless hook ease for a while

We tried to make ourselves to believe too

That we could have a electric oven beside the fridge

Is anything ever enough in a life

Couldn't this endless pressure ease for a while

How often we get smut on our faces

How fast disappears money and fame

Elina,what should I do
