| Gentlemen democrats of the past century
|
| We would really like to resurrect you all
|
| For you to look at our successes
|
| Well, we managed to thank you
|
| We would everyone who expressed gratitude with something
|
| A threshing machine is a collective farmer, a worker is a key
|
| Enemy of the people - with a pickaxe, with a prosthesis - an Afghan
|
| Well, I would light someone up with a brick
|
| Like this, like this
|
| America lives with Europe
|
| Like this, like this
|
| Well, we are all through ...
|
| Gentlemen democrats of the past century
|
| And why were you furious, threatening the throne
|
| After all, nature is not a fool and God is not a cripple
|
| Well, you hit him in the neck, but you can't
|
| Maybe you wanted to fix everything at once
|
| Only haste is needed when hunting for fleas,
|
| And nature cannot create by order
|
| And it's quite clear, neither can God
|
| Like this, like this
|
| America lives with Europe
|
| Like this, like this
|
| Well, we are all through ...
|
| Lord Democrats, did you know the examples
|
| When your colleagues perpetrated terror
|
| Exterminated the color of the nation with the sword of Robespierre
|
| And Paris to this day washes away the shame
|
| Truth-lover Radishchev after that meat grinder
|
| Travel from St. Petersburg to Moscow
|
| I almost burst out of annoyance, damaged my mind
|
| And, scolding the Masons, plunged into melancholy
|
| Like this, like this
|
| America lives with Europe
|
| Like this, like this
|
| Well, we are all through ...
|
| Gentlemen democrats, hasten to rise again
|
| Come out to the court of the fooled masses
|
| Let Chernyshevsky and Herzen answer for everything
|
| Both the dreamer Belinsky and the sage Karl Marx
|
| Let those who came after you answer
|
| Survive from the people and joy and sadness
|
| And the free Slavs were turned into slaves
|
| And they turned Great Russia into a prison
|
| Like this, like this
|
| America lives with Europe
|
| Like this, like this
|
| Well, we have everything through
|
| Through hardship to the stars |
