Älä Tee

Minä olen kova ylipuhumaan
tiedän miten ihmisille sanotaan
asioita joita ne tahtovat kuulla

Tähän meni multa vuosia tottua
mutta nyttemmin kun olen niin taitava
en ajattele sitä juurikaan

Älä tee minun kanssani mitään sellaista
jonka voisit säästää siihen
kun sinulla on mies jonka todella tahdot
Älä tee minun kanssani mitään sellaista
jonka voisit säästää siihen kun
sinulla on mies jota todella etsit

Sinä olet sillä tavalla niin viaton
että uskot aivan kaiken mitä minä sanon
sinä uskot jos kerron että oot kaunis

Ja se on totta, enhän minä valehtele
mutta paljon on kiinnostavampaa se
miksi minä sen sinulle kerron

Jos sinulla on mies jonka todella tahdot
ja sinulla on mies jota todella etsit
sinulla on mies joka nimesi muistaa aamulla

Jos sinulla on mies jonka todella tahdot
ja sinulla on mies jota todella etsit
sinulla on mies joka tekisi aamuista laukeita

Älä tee minun kanssani mitään sellaista
Älä tee minun kanssani mitään sellaista
Älä tee minun kanssani mitään sellaista

Don't Do

I'm known to persuade
I know how to tell people
things they want to hear

It took me years to get used to this
but now that I'm so skilled
I don't really think about it

Anything you could save until you have a man you really want,
don't do with me
Anything you could save until you have a man you're really looking for,
don't do with me

You are so innocent in that way
that you believe every single thing I say
you believe if I tell you that you're beautiful

And it's true, I'm not lying
but it's much more interesting
why I'm telling you that

Anything you could save until you have a man you really want,
don't do with me
Anything you could save until you have a man you're really looking for,
don't do with me

If you have a man you really want
and you have a man you're really looking for
you have a man who remembers your name in the morning

If you have a man you really want
and you have a man you're really looking for
you have a man who makes the mornings laukeita*

Anything you could save until you have a man you really want,
don't do with me
Anything you could save until you have a man you're really looking for,
don't do with me

Don't do anything like that with me
Don't do anything like that with me
Don't do anything like that with me

* The word "laukeita" doesn't mean anything in Finnish (it's not uncommon for Finnish songwriters to make up words). I'm imagining it's an adjective used to describe a nice, peaceful morning with no rush. But that's just me, haha. Nevertheless, it means something positive!

Author's comment:

Thanks to the complexity of Finnish, I had to do quite a bit of adjusting in the chorus, so it's by no means a direct translation.
