| You ask me why sometimes I am silent?
|
| Why don't I laugh and smile?
|
| I just want to tell you a serious thing -
|
| I'm going to tell the story of my life.
|
| How my mother conceived me on Lenin Street,
|
| How I got cut down there from time to time.
|
| And how I acquired Lenin street syndrome,
|
| And how it still hacks from time to time.
|
| It was not customary to walk out of step with everyone,
|
| Having an opinion is almost a crime
|
| With curses in the heart, sing a song of praise in muzzles
|
| And together it's fun to build a happy future.
|
| This is how I lived on Lenin Street
|
| And muffled bitter grief from time to time!
|
| This is how I lived on Lenin Street
|
| And muffled bitter grief from time to time!
|
| I moved out of there a long time ago, with a change of address,
|
| To forget everything like a dream and start life in a new way,
|
| Throw off spiritual slavery and live with new joy,
|
| And find your freedom and dignity.
|
| Time flows like a river and is carried away into the past
|
| I live in a free country - everything is civilized,
|
| But either he didn’t understand something, or he’s imagining it.
|
| As if everything is the same, only in a new way ...
|
| Again, as if I'm standing on Lenin Street
|
| and I have deja vu from time to time.
|
| Again, as if I'm standing on Lenin Street
|
| and I have deja vu from time to time!
|
| So - I think, where did we get to?
|
| It's good that at least not on Stalin Street.
|
| And here I am again singing on Lenin Street
|
| About how it hacks me from time to time... |
