My God For how many years have I been walking And I haven't made a single step My God For how many days have I been looking For what is always with me For how many years have I been chewing Instead of bread on raw love How many lives at my temple Does a burnished steel shaft spit - The long-awaited vastness Black headlights in the neighboring yard Hatchways, handcuffs, torn mouth How many times did my head Roll off the overflowing guillotine And flew here, where is - Motherland I'm going to the Motherland Let them shout it's ugly But we like it all the same So it's not a beauty So trustful to scum, but to us - Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…. Hey, boss ! My God How much truth in the eyes of the government whores How much faith in the hands of the fired executioners Please don't let them roll up their sleeves again Please don't let them roll up the sleeves Of eventful nights Black headlights in the neighboring yard Hatchways, handcuffs, torn mouth How many times did my head Roll off the overflowing guillotine And flew here, where is - Motherland I'm going to the Motherland Let them shout it's ugly But we like it all the same A sleeping beauty So trustful to scum, but to us - Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…. Hey, boss! From under black shirts bursts a red rooster From under kind czars marmalade pours into mouths Never has this world had room for both - Father was our god, and our devil - Motherland, I'm going to the Motherland Let them shout it's ugly But we like it all the same A sleeping beauty So trustful to scum, but to us - Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la…. Heeeey, boss!
