Baden-Baden [English translation]

One day I was sad and broke

I've got sacked from work, 'cause of this recession

I scratched my head, where would I make some money

I could do nothing else, just cried,

but then I got an idea

I'll bottle up my tears

and sell them to Sahara

where their are needed

on that dry barren land..

The President heard about my idea

She thought it would help our export and sales.

Production process would be neat,

Finland's quite depressed country after all.

They would make million sales in Europe

then in Africa, she thought

So let's bottle up our tears

and sell them to Baden-Baden

Where Finland's sadness

will be pumped into fountains

Yes, let's bottle our tears

and train them to Baden- Baden

Where in them bathes one tourist and another

Then people wept and economy got back on its feet

and they were happy,

but the tears of happiness didn't last so to speak

The Government wondered for long

how this crisis would be solved

Until someone remembered

what happened when the alcohol tax got removed

So let's bottle up our tears

and sell them to Baden-Baden

Where Finland's sadness

will be pumped into fountains

Yes, let's bottle our tears

and train them to Baden- Baden

Where in them bathes one tourist and another
