Sirpa [English translation]

We moved to the countryside with Sirpa.

We didn't have enough money to stay in the city.

This range was half-free,

Village road completely quiet.

A new beginning opened to us.

Renovating the bathroom walls

Rubbing off the black dots from the tiles.

Sirpa found an Ellos catalog,

And wasn't unhappy for a week.

Along with the autumn the leaves fell off.

Where could we save a bit more,

Can we set the wiener dog to nature?

When it's freezing in at night in October.

We're eating the ground's bountiful gifts,

The money from bottes goes to gambling.

Lost everything but Sirpa is still loving.

We also applied for jobs with Sirpa,

At unemployment office they laughed at us,

This village hasn't had any jobs,

Since before the season of Mauno Koivisto.

Our last dream got wrecked.

I was sobbing at the porch at night.

While doing the slavic squat we prayed.

Sirpa showered weekly,

Got rash on her back.

The black dots on the wall turned out to be mold

Where could we save a bit more,

Can we set the wiener dog to nature?

When it's freezing in at night in October.

We're eating the ground's bountiful gifts,

The money from bottes goes to gambling.

Lost everything but Sirpa is still loving.

With Timo we broke down,

Watching our cottage get taken down.

The Caterpillar smashed the cottage on the ground,

Our neighbour sold us a Lada.

A new beginning opens up.

Drove to Helsinki with a Samara,

The smell of gasoline stuck to our clothes.

Someone yelled "goddamn homeless",

Whatever I have happiness

When Timppa fell in love with me back then

Now we don't have to save up any more,

When we're insane enough.

The government will take care of its own.

At Heikki Hursti we're eating often,

If we have money we do some gambling.

Lost everything but I still love you

Yes I do love...

Maybe I do love...

I think I love...
