Alex has much, but it's not enough for him
He's a millionaire and wants still more
He almost always leaves Elena alone at home
He never has time for tenderness
Moneymaking is all he cares about
When he comes home in the evening
He's as tired as a warrior after the battle
Slumps into bed and only says:
Kali Nichta1, Kali Nichta, good night
She is young and beautiful
He doesn't seem to see it
Dear friend, be aware
He who has treasure like you
Doesn't just say Kali Nichta, Kali Nichta, good night
But Elena knows how to look after herself
Don't think that she just sits and cries
You must know the handsome Dimitri next door
He's no wisecracker, but people say
He has exactly what she wants
So, when her husband comes home now
She looks tired and leans against the wardrobe
He doesn't notice anything, falls into bed
And still only says Kali Nichta
At which she thinks: thank God
She is young and beautiful
He doesn't seem to see it
And if he does make a move,
She just turns things round
And just says: Kali Nichta, Kali – no don't –, good night
La la laei ...
She is young and beautiful
You must understand her
And if you have such a treasure at home
There's always the danger, as you can see
So when it's late don't always just say:
Kali Nichta, Kali Nichta, when it's on
