Summer (A song for Tsoi)
Summer!
I've bought me a paper.
I've got a paper but no beer,
And I set forth to find me some.
Summer!
There's a concert today in Lensovet2.
There will be this and that,
And perhaps I should show up there.
Summer!
All hooligans have brass knuckles.
They've got vendetta it seems,
But that's just a trifle, oh yeah.
Summer!
You can't get any respite from gnats.
There's no "Deta"3 in stores...
Blood-donors are held in high regard.
Summer!
The pants are worn like a coin.
A cigarette in my mouth
I go to take a swim in a body of water.
Summer!
Recently I've heard somewhere
That a comet will come soon
And we will all die.
