Scary
Honest, honest
Honest, honest
Honest, honest
You're not gonna succeed,
But they don't like
To know beforehand
Who will not go the end,
So women are putting their make-up on
And kids are hiding,
Stand in the circle¹
No one is lying
You don't like it
And they don't like it.
The sons are sleeping,
But the family stays silent.
You're staring naively,
And the plans are working²,
I'm responsible for who mine sleeps with
You're not gonna succeed,
And they're not gonna succeed
The Ice won't save you,
The Major is coming³,
And women are putting their make-up on,
And kids are hiding,
Stand in the circle,
No one is lying, yeah
That's why it's scary, that's why it's scary
That's why it's scary, that's why it's scary
That's why it's scary, that's why it's scary
That's why it's scary, that's why it's scary
Eternal, eternal,
Eternal, eternal,
Loyal, Loyal,
Honest, honest,
Honest nation,
Honest, honest
You're not gonna succeed,
And they're not gonna succeed,
The Ice won't save you,
No one will go through
And women are putting their make-up on,
And kids are hiding,
Stand in the circle,
The Major is coming
That's why it's scary, that's why it's scary
That's why it's scary, that's why it's scary
That's why it's scary, that's why it's scary
That's why it's scary, that's why it's scary
Eternal, eternal,
Eternal, eternal,
Eternal, eternal,
Honest, honest,
Honest nation,
Honest, honest

¹circle also can be translated as roundelay or round dance
²everything is going according to the plan (just like in the name and lyrics of Civil Defence's song) or the plan is coming true
³a reference to the song of the previously mentioned punk and noise-rock band (Гражданская Оборона). The line in the chorus is "We are the ice under Major's feet", where The Major is the government or a system, that supresses people's will and identity, ice being a metaphor for resistance.
