Ei unta ennen Maltsuu [English translation]

Can't sleep before I'm in Maltsu

(no dreams before I'm in Malminkartano)

Can't sleep before I'm in Maltsu

(I'm coming back home)

I'm switching the lights on in the middle of the night

so many cockroaches that the floors are swarming

I've never shunned work

I just didn't settle for a shitty one

Seasons changed while I browsed the web

up and down, haywire, permanently drunk

I dreamed about this already in '99

I was dull, at the cottage and given up my ambitions

If I just had a fucking flyswatter with a long handle equipped with readiness for time and space

I would swat that young Mikko to the face with it

fatty, you're the laziest guy in the whole western world

(What captivating things can be seen from the bus window,

I wasn't waiting for anything, I just wrote a whole record)

I though I was independent

but the society had secretly gone to my studio flat and knitted

a hammock softening my fall

that's why I'm concentrating mainly on the individual

A lot, I'm dreaming dangerously much

an expected value that's reaching for the clouds

And I guess there wasn't anything wrong inside my mind

only the kind of company suited for my standard of living

I didn't believe in the resurrection

though it only consisted of getting out of the bed

Not tar and concrete but cream and bacon

sperm and cretonne in the flashlights

Can't sleep before I'm in Maltsu

(I just wrote a whole record)

Can't sleep before I'm in Maltsu

(I wasn't waiting for anything, I just wrote a whole record)

What captivating things can be seen from the bus window

(I just wrote a whole record)

What captivating things can be seen from the bus window

(I wasn't waiting for anything, I just wrote a whole record)

I have shitty memories about Maltsu but I have those from anywhere

Home is home and you can return there though you lost everything

In a way I hate Maltsu but in a way it hates me even more

And until I'm there I'm staying awake by force

Can't sleep before I'm in Maltsu

(no dreams before I'm in Malminkartano)

Can't sleep before I'm in Maltsu

(I'm coming back home)

Can't sleep before I'm in Maltsu

(What captivating things can be seen from the bus window,

I wasn't waiting for anything, I just wrote a whole record)

Well now I can see it, it's my own face

blame me about the hate, I can't do anything else but love you
