Toteemipaalu [English translation]

You're like a sunflower

my favorite color in your eyes

You're my sunflower

I'm your own Cary Grant*

Now that you have kids and a very rich husband

and a house straight out of Disneyland

Your own utility room and a machined kitchen

Do you ever wonder where

the singer from your favorite band is

when everything is like from the film Beauty and the Beast

(Chorus:)

I'm like a totem pole

up again

throbbing and stiff

Your man is just like a ghost there on the bed

tired and pale

That Count Dracula

You have the kind of itchy hole

that it needs to be scratched there

when with nature's own ways

I medicate you

Still sometimes I feel so unreal

though you try to snap me awake

I stand confused, like floating in a dream

Chorus

You're like a sunflower

my favorite color in your eyes

You're my sunflower

I'm your own Cary Grant

Life can be like a labyrinthine house

And a castle just a prison

When in the middle of everything you're pressing the alarm button

There's surely something else in the fridge than just the light

and the plates are rock crystal

when you conjure salmon and lobster for lunch

Chorus

You're like a sunflower

my favorite color in your eyes

You're my sunflower

I'm your own Cary Grant (x2)
