[MANE]
I don't need a big ship cruise
But from Alaranta on board to Hopealinja
Why change a good city anyway
When I'm walking down Hämeenkatu's handsome bridge
With Nysse you get where you want and Onnikka will take you
Same beggars on the gate of market hall still
On match factory spraying the walls
From McDonald's' corner to Koskipuisto's upgrade
On Näsinkallio I lose my glasses
Sausage and fries and Ullan Grilli
McDonald's corner's gangsters also have now families
Now mothers and fathers, life freaking busy
Nääs! Here is our destiny
Tampere, Mansesteri, zero three
Awesome food, terraces
When will we take a rematch?
[CHORUS:]
[MIKKO ALATALO]
Gates never close
Night hunger stops at Vaakko
When tipi-tipi-tii is not enough
Here we put volume to the max
On the bridge of Tammerkoski
My song is ringing
Tampere, awesome place
The loveliest town
[VAINIS]
Own boy of Tampere, Hervanta in heart
Beanie in head on the edge of road, now we repeat
what we are talking about when we talk about Manse
Other things also than hockey, blood sausage and women
I keep loyal, raise pint for Juice
I sit on wooden bench to commemorate Manserock
Why change it, I recommend to explore
Through the night (or Yö) Popeda, until Uniklubi calls
In need of therapy, made of Teräsbetoni
We have Nuera, Negative, talks of haters
Art from spray paint, blooming culture
Town of red brick, will make you feel too
Bright for weekdays, like Simo Frangén
We have Soundi as magazine, live and record
So look forward, I'm from Manse you know
Who ever disses, denies the facts from themselves
[CHORUS]
[INDE]
Hello, Nääs, you know
I'm from Manse, so I am here
West Tampere, everyday of life
Tampere's suburbs only prisoners of their reputation
From Tesoma to Epilä, and forward to Pispala
"You get help by asking always from anywhere"
From Vastavirta via Vaakko to Pulteri
On the top of the hill, the world it goes
Lookout tower and Finland's best doughnuts
To Rosendahl's shore your way goes too
On Koulukatu, Minigolf masters
On Ratina's shore Blockfest, Summer's greatest festival
On Hakametsä Ice Arena honour for tradition
Raipe and Juti, 95 the Boy came home
Ny Rillataan, no other town
Wherever the man, the home is still always here
[CHORUS]
[SARKASTINEN]
Heart can only fit one M* like Tampere
One M in my hear too "Manse, yeah yeah"
I'm enjoying every street, bus, house
I remember corner of McD and fire of Love Hotel
Now the Koskari's Mall has refreshed and
Tampere-video will bring back nostalgia
Näsijärvi, Pyhäjärvi, Centre Plaza
I'm always aboard when there's something special
From here are Eppu, and Popeda and Kummeli
Here lies astonishing Rantaväylä tunnel
Carriage with rails soon takes us all
When tramline rattles underneath
Wherever I am, Hervanta in my mind
Sometimes in the Summer mildly drunk, woman next to me
Lovely places, I create songs out of these
I really recommend to check this town
[CHORUS]
