POLSKIE TANGO [English translation]
POLSKIE TANGO [English translation]
Back in the 90s you had no identity
West kept going forward, west had no mercy
We had to help each other to not be overrun in the race
The world of ex-enemies predicted that we'd be hungry
They winked at us to stop fasting
And we were shocked - so many new things in shops
Plastic toys, cool new porn
Paint in colors of raspberries, bananas, blueberries, and peaches!
They call them "gray flats"? Where the fuck are those gray flats1
Everything here is vibrant - Girls, guys, and yorks
Purple bruises, probably because she was being naughty
He's got kefir for men, toffee flavored well-balanced protein
My country left it's cage and now it's in shambles
My country can be run by any loser
In my country the education is uneducated
On one side a fair and on the other Europe
I'm dancing polish tango
My legs are in mud because Wisła is a swamp
Our national colors are like Santa Claus which makes sense
Because I stopped believing in Poland long ago
I'm dancing polish tango
My legs are in mud because Wisła is a swamp
Our national colors are like Santa Claus which makes sense, sense
sense, sense...
Who are you? A little Pole
What's your sign? Bag full of white
Where do you live? Under supervision
In what country? This fucked up one
What is this land? It's my sandcastle
How was it conquered? With fearmongering
Do you love it? A lot, I'm serious
And what do you believe in? I don't believe in anything
Who are you? A little Pole
My beautiful scenery is all ruined with fucking billboards
Sometimes i happen to see a familiar face on one of them
I ask them to stop but they just laugh and say
"Okay dude fucking calm down..."2
The entire flat is partying in Warsaw
I'm listening to my previews, call the cops if I'm pissing you off
I can hear those sirens ringing somewhere in Muranów
Those sirens keep wailing, those sirens went crazy
I'm dancing polish tango
My legs are in mud because Wisła is a swamp
Our national colors are like Santa Claus which makes sense
Because I stopped believing in Poland long ago
I'm dancing polish tango
My legs are in mud because Wisła is a swamp
Our national colors are like Santa Claus which makes sense, sense
sense, sense...
Their main mission is to tell you that you're doing great
Only you are right, the rest of the world is living a lie
The horizon is pretty but try to look more narrow3
(Look more narrow, look more narrow)
Vaccines and 5G are the enemy
Adults are educated by random Facebook pages
Your nephew is a faggot because gender is in fashion
And the most anti-polish thing is hating coal
A little coal never killed nobody
I burn the black gold with my homies
Either way - God is with us, fuck you
Say your prayers, hallelujah, and go forward bitches
1. "Gray flats" is how people often describe the communism architecture, specifically apartment buildings which often looked gray and "boring"2. You can read the entire thing in the music video and it translates to "Okay dude fucking calm down, why do you worry so much, it'll hang there only for a while and the money stays in pocket"3. The opposite of "widening the horizons"
