We left Tel Aviv, we moved to Gaza Envelope1, we left Tel Aviv...
In Tel Aviv the son-of-a-bitches would whistle at you passing in the street
Sounds of honking at you from parked cars
Here the emergency alarms sounds, the rockets whistle
And yet, we don't miss
The roaches from the tunnels of Bugrashov St. sewer
When I sprayed them in the kitchen, they would come up from the shower
In the tunnels of the North Negev something else is hiding
If it comes up, it will spray your ass [with bullets]
We left Tel Aviv, we moved to Gaza Envelope, we left Tel Aviv...
And when war breaks in order to solve the problem, they say:
"We need to flatten Gaza, build a parking lot there"
But excuse me, you are confused here, there is plenty of parking space in the Negev
So don't take out your frustration on me
Over all the parking tickets you have received
Over the problems from the city rent-a-bicycle scheme
Over the day you grew old looking for parking space
You went round and round Rothschild Ave. for an hour till you parked in the Planetarium
They hauled you to the Dolphin Aquarium, and you moved to Ramat Gan
We left Tel Aviv, we moved to Gaza Envelope, we left Tel Aviv...
The farmers are thirsty for rain, but the only thing that drips is rockets
Then they are thirsty for compensation
Thirsty for love
Walla, it's hot over here
So sometimes they are just plain thirsty
In Tel Aviv I go to A.M-P.M2, charge my Rav-Kav3
Over here you have no worries, the public transport never arrives
Over there it's open 24/7, over here it's shut 21
Four P.M till seven P.M, the convenience store's opening hours
We left Tel Aviv, we moved to Gaza Envelope, we left Tel Aviv...
