Original lyrics
Фильм окончен
Руки-крюки, морда-ящик,
Исподлобья взгляд косой.
Он пришёл, чтоб на пакгаузе
Отравились колбасой.
Держит рюмки и угрюмо
Разливает по одной.
Он пришёл, чтоб на пакгаузе
Отравились колбасой.
Вот и титры - фильм окончен.
Ты домой бежишь босой.
Не иначе на пакгаузе
Отравился колбасой.
Время лечит и калечит -
Косит острою косой.
Но вот кто-то на пакгаузе
Отравился колбасой.

Translation
Show's Over
Hands hooked, muzzles squared,
Under brows came sidelong glances.
He came to the shack,
To poison them with sausage.
Holding wine glasses sullenly,
Pouring one-at-a-time.
He came to the shack,
To poison them with sausage.
Credits roll, the show's over.
You run home barefoot,
To the shack,
To poison them with sausage.
The time comes and goes,
Cuts in with a sharp blade.
But here's someone in the shack,
To poison them with sausage.

Author's comments:
Though I like St. Sol's translation of this song a lot, it felt like a stretch (to me) to infer that "you've been poisoned" when the line directly doesn't reference it. The way I see it, four lines means four people, all four of them are here to poison the other, but they don't realize that they've poisoned them all. Also, shack sounded better in my opinion. For some reason, I can see someone going into a shack to get rat poison or something and spiking sausage as more plausible than going to a dock or warehouse and just picking up poisoned sausage.
