1. Whoever thought up A country, in everlasting elections A country, for a decade without ambitions Where people are asleep and I have fallen asleep too, come on, wake me up! Country of my own, my homeland, my fatherland Once we had dreams here but now I can't remember what dreams are Would you have the strength to shake your people awake, my darling country? Your grace, wake us, so we could live, breathe, strive, love and have faith again... Or was this all but a dream? (repeat all)
2. Or was this all but a dream?
Maybe a dream..
In that case forgive us.
In that case why or why do you spit like a coward at the elderly?
Did you not grow old with them, are you not a sister to them, or have you forgotten?
Stop the lies -- you remember.
You remember. And yet you let the scum bash the war veterans at parades, tear their flags
Enough, Ukraine, they did not spare their lives for you, they fell dead for you
But you have let their red flag be stomped into Lviv's dirt
But this is not a story about Lviv, but about you.. I would forgive you for everything but not this
Hey, I am speaking to you now and I don't give a shit
Whether your reason for this was power, people or someone else's orders
How did we get to this, don't you understand
We have long entered a place we cannot exit
A country of events, for which we are no longer even ashamed
A country of politicians, who considers it's people a mere legend
3. Who ever thought up A country in everlasting elections A country for a decade without ambitions Where people are asleep and I have fallen asleep too, come on, wake me up! Country of my own, my homeland, my fatherland Once we had dreams here but now I can't remember what dreams are Would you have the strength to shake your people awake, my darling country? Your grace, wake us, so we could live, breathe, strive, love and have faith again... Or was this all but a dream?
4.Starlit country, full of stars no doubt
Famous footballers, hockey players, boxers
Famous political battles in shades of orange
Now they know us, and less and less mistakenly call us Russia
But we have fallen asleep, wonder here and there like zombies
We exist, and silly us, blindly believe the news on TV
We can take many vodka shots without falling under the kitchen table
We know how to hold the drink but know not how to hold our lives together
History has been forgotten, there is too much to remember
There is too much to re-write of the soap opera 'Politicana'
It no longer arms us against others, but long ago has been turned against us
Forgive me for this song but I got sick of silence
You are not interested in what I have to say, nor in me
"Do not disturb" is on your door
And yet, my obscene scream is there, in your face, a country forever wasted, drunken.
