Дешёвые драмы [Deshyovyye dramy] [English translation]

We love cheap dramas so much

There are unscripted dialogs

Where the actors overact

With their sighs, shouts and groans

Where we are not interested in our roles

In the foolish costumes, with unsure grace

Hidden in the ragged decorations

From the boulevard noise

Scenes of jealousy, scenes of separation

We are ready, with synchronized scripts!

As if though we didn’t know each other

As if though we met each other by chance

I wish it would end already, and we’ll forget

Our lines and go home

So that the wrong people

End up in the shot

Kiss me as gently as you can

Wipe your tears with your sleeve

Let the old cameras always tare the tape

We can redo the scene!

Scenes of jealousy, scenes of separation

We are ready, with synchronized scripts!

As if though we didn’t know each other

As if though we met each other by chance

There are enough fake tears, but it seems like

We should cry, however, we smile

Maybe, these roles are just not for us

And we try so hard in vain

Only those who create and destroy, can cry honestly

I plead – you all wrote the script

Promise that our characters

Will be happy in the end!

Scenes of jealousy, scenes of separation

We are ready, with synchronized scripts!

As if though we didn’t know each other

As if though we met each other by chance

We love cheap dramas so much

Full of our funny problems

Yes, we play very badly

But we love for real!
