По трамвайным рельсам [Po tramvainym relsam] [English translation]

You and I will go walking along the tramway tracks,

Sit on the pipes at the beginning of the ring road

Black smoke from a plant's chimney will be our warm wind

Yellow plate of the traffic light will be our guiding star

If we can, we won't be back in the cage until nightfall

We must be able to dig ourselves into the ground within two seconds

So that we are left lying there when grey cars start driving over us

Carrying off with them those who couldn't and wouldn't roll in dirt

If we make it in time, we'll continue on our way crawling on railroad ties

You will see the sky, I will see earth on your soles

If we return, we will need to burn our clothes in the furnace

Unless we are met by blue uniform caps at our doorstep

If we are, then don't tell them we've walked along the tramway tracks

That is the first sign of crime or schizophrenia

And the Iron Felix* will be smiling at us from his portrait

It will go on for a long time, it will be a just

Punishment for us for walking along the tramway tracks

A just punishment for walks along the tramway tracks

We will be killed, me and you, for walking along the tramway tracks
