Я Лиза [Ya Liza] [English translation]

I'm Lisa and I'm not cool

I don't even wear jeans

I only take the subway and tramways.

I don't do well in math

I don't get invited to overnights or parties,

but I'm so shy I wouldn't go anyway.

It's just as well that only night, rain and my

network1 buddies know the secrets of my soul.

But I have a cool collection

of pictures in the cloud.

What do I need real friends?

What do I need boys and parties

when all my funny little friends

are there on the Internet?

In real life I'm nothing much

but there I'm "sweetie" and "cutie".

I'm a mere 3D entity and not even Japanese,

though I intend to change that2 after death.

I try hard to make witty and subtle jokes,

but I keep falling flat on my face.

I don't let my hair grow and don't slim down.

I only sat in a limo once.

I don't play chess, I can't draw.

I'm afraid of revolving doors in stores!

But I have a cool collection

of pictures in the cloud.

What do I need real friends?

What do I need boys and parties

when all my funny little friends

are there on the Internet?

In real life I'm nothing much

but there I'm "sweetie" and "cutie".
