Мама, я не могу больше пить [Mama, ya ne mogu bol'she pit'] [English translation]

Mom, I cannot drink anymore,

Mom, I cannot drink anymore,

Mom, pour out all the drinks standing on table,

I cannot drink anymore.

I have an iron lasso on me,

I cross myself when I see a wineglass,

I'm not able to maintain this lie,

Mom, I cannot drink anymore.

The patriots will say I proved to be weak,

And I've practically sold my home country.

They feel easy, but I go down to the bottom.

I see how the thread is becoming all thinner.

I didn't play the fool,

For 35 years I worked all day long,

But I cannot kill an alien in myself,

Mom, I cannot drink anymore.

Mom, I cannot drink anymore,

Mom, I cannot drink anymore,

Mom, call all my friends

And tell them that I cannot drink anymore.

Here it is - "Catcher in the Rye",

And there are knives under my bare feet,

I'm so tired of "living not by lie",

I cannot drink anymore.

Tell my brothers that now I've grown adult,

Tell the sister that I'm sick in my soul.

I might be an ordinary man

But I missed this role.

I've entered the endless forest,

I look upwards, but I cannot see the sky.

Tell in the church that devil stands in all doorways,

the Demon Alcohol.

Mom, I cannot drink anymore,

Mom, I cannot drink anymore,

Mom, pour out all the drinks standing on table,

I cannot drink anymore.

I have an iron lasso on me

I cross myself when I see a wineglass,

I'm not able to maintain this lie,

Mom, I cannot drink anymore.
