Mesaj pentru Europa [English translation]

Message to Europe:

[Cheloo]

We are not crows1

We don't live in tents

We make efforts to elevate ourselves

And we don't play the accordion on the streets of Wien

We don't beg showing off our handicap, to make a fortune

And we don't tell the fortune in dirty trailers

[Ombladon]

We don't wear flowery skirts and we don't pick pockets

We don't emigrate to Sweeden with 7 children to get help

You blame us, from Berlin to Pamplona, making me sick

Suck my dick2, you won't see any Romanian in trailers around Rome

[Cheloo]

We freeze in classrooms since we're 6-7 years old

6-7 hours a day without heating, food or money

[Ombladon]

We have poor parents at home and one thing is for sure

We are cultivated as to make it in life

By ourselves

[Cheloo]

We face new laws

Made by idiots

Dance with us

My dick's waltz is a step forward, two steps backward

[Ombladon]

I piss on gays, and it's not normal that my children see

Homosexuals making out ostentatiously in the street

It's trendy being tolerant but don't revive Sodom3

We can send you the fags packing to Barcelona

[Cheloo]

We are the poor relative so we cannot be brothers

Message to Europe: I think you're confusing us

[Ombladon]

We don't have 7 brothers at home

Our mother is really not sick

Our father quickly drank his coffee

And hastily left for work

[Cheloo]

We go to colleges

And spend our last penny on books

We will never be garbagemen in Amsterdam

We speak 3 languages, and we can fly your planes

But we cannot fucking socialize with trashcans

[Ombladon]

We force closed doors, we live with disallowed dreams

And we legally work a whole year for a fistful of tokens

[Cheloo]

Let it enter your head, quickly, believe us

We don't eat swans4

We respect ourselves, we solve our own problems

[Ombladon]

Lowlifes and whores strengthen the ranks of gipsy settlements5 in Madrid

We the Romanians line up to fill theaters

[Cheloo]

We vote disgusted, it is true, and the country's turned to dust, fine powder

Because it's easier to pay upfront when buying a wreckage

10 years worth of money from EU disappear in mansions6

In non-existent streets and useless technologies

[Ombladon]

If we have connections, you assholes7, my bad, you brothers

We can ask for spicy details in "The forest of the hanged"8

[Cheloo]x4

I'm harmless but my thought kills

(The time for this presentation has ran out

In the end, we must specify that Romania is a country in Africa

We live in unhygienic holes underground, we're cannibals, we hunt rats with bows

We don't have cars because we travel through trees painted in yellow

And all the constructions that you can admire if you choose to take a trip through these lands are built by a superior civilization that we have nothing to do with.

Thank you)9

1. pejorative term for gipsy2. lit. "Eat my dick"3. Sodom and Gomorrah, biblical cities punished by God for being depraved4. Refers to a famous incident when gipsys stole live swans from a water fountain in Rome and ate them.5. In Romanian there is a dedicated word which refers to gipsy settlements, which doesn't exist in English6. Corruption and theft of public money7. lit. "you sausages"8. Novel by Romanian author Liviu Rebreanu detailing the life(and death) of a Romanian born in then Austro-Hungary, fighting in World War 19. This part is spoken and does not appear in the video, only in the album version. Needless to say, the narrator is ironic.
