Lennokki [English translation]
Lennokki [English translation]
The rich just grow richer,while the poor stand in the bread line
Being born in Finland is like winning five euros in the lottery*
A single parent is on the metro commuting home from work
While the child uses the eviction notice to make a paper plane
We're together on the internet, alone in real life
Few answers, many questions
We give Sipilä a statue
The welfare state is breaking suicide records
No, I carry a lantern to your grave
And I carry the world on my shoulders as long as I am able
Who will serve your last meal
When you're surrounded by snakes and various reptiles (No)
Money can buy material things
You can't love money, for money is just paper (No)
But that feeling
It pushes you down, never give up
This is the last day before tomorrow
If you can't get up from the chair
Stop it, don't continue drinking
You'll find no answers in the pint, no
The rich just grow richer, while the poor stand in the bread line
Being born in Finland is like winning five euros in the lottery*
A single parent is on the metro commuting home from work
While the child uses the eviction notice to make a paper plane
A paper plane, a paper plane
The bills are unpaid, your account is empty
Nothing is well, there's no such thing
And in the streets something supposedly taught you
It's heads or tails like a double win
So did I escape or would I have been trapped
When I look back I see how we got here
You have to go far back to see close
I've been running for years, now I'm learning to walk
I feel bad, how bad are you feeling?
Some drown in the lake, others drown in the bottle
You return from work, you do the same thing every week
In the evenings you cry because the kids don't get weekly pocket money
You wake up before the newspaper, the wind blows through the window
You put duct tape on it, everything fucking sucks
I feel like I'm about to fall
I've been tired and I'll come back when I have the strength
The rich just grow richer, while the poor stand in the bread line
Being born in Finland is like winning five euros in the lottery*
A single parent is on the metro commuting home from work
While the child uses the eviction notice to make a paper plane
A paper plane (a paper plane), a paper plane (a paper plane)
While the child uses the eviction notice to make a paper plane
A paper plane (stop the paper plane), a paper plane (a paper plane)
