What a country, what a country

what a country, unique unto itself

the government squeezes, the country is stressed

what a country, what a country..

People are crying, the prices go up and up

paying taxes and also health fees

there isn't any more work, the cash drawer is empty

there is no way to fund life, they closed the work bureau

in the Knesset1they are sitting around, taking advantage of us

they took our savings, the unemployment is done

we are feed up, they issued us another fine

now they are adding tax to milk...

What a country, what a country

what a country, unique unto itself

the government requires, cash is requested

what a country, what a country..

We have ministers, who just want a chair...

don't do anything for us and just promise and promise

where is the equality, where is the vision

where is the morality, what a waste

what will i sing to you and what can i explain

there are many things that we will give up on

despite the mess and the hardships

you are our country for the generations.

What a country, what a country

what a country, unique unto itself

the government squeezes, the country is stressed

what a country, what a country

what a country, unique unto itself...
