Quote:
(ref intentionaly in Russian)
Białomor eta prosta papiros
kak Philip Morris - eta prosta sigariet
na puti na żizniennoj wstrieczajetsja
s czieławiekam czieławiek
Here's the script for the song:
so the attic - for lack of a villa,
my wife, some vodka
two lefties: Heinz and Willy
Someone sent them here with a letter
- They can spend the night -
and as usual at dinner
same conversation
of course Solzhenitsyn
and there's a pause in the conversation...
- Willy says - it's for him
he is rotten conservatists
Light Willy Belomor
I have a whole cardboard of them
you might want to show it
fellow lefties?
Heinz, don't you understand anything either
he's looking at the package
finally he say: - "very cheap,
just zwei und zwanzig"
Yes, Heinz, the White Sea Canal
- there's nothing to be afraid of -
died so badly there
half a million people
Say Willy - as German
you'd probably faint
paying for "Auschwitz with a filter"
brand one Mark and Pfening
light a Belomor Willy
and think calmly
- who really won in the end
this last war?
(ref intentionaly in Russian)
Białomor eta prosta papiros
kak Philip Morris - eta prosta sigariet
na puti na żizniennoj wstrieczajetsja
s czieławiekam czieławiek
