I've just read the translation again and I must say that my shabby English was more of a problem than my shabby Swedish here. :D
"ha is i magen" is indeed an idiom and means "to keep cool", "to stay calm" [at least in Norwegian it does], which I think makes little sense in the context of the song, so I thought it was a pun ("'let's NOT be calm but let's have a party, let's have some ice cream/ice cubes in our drinks, let's enjoy life"). I guess I overthought t.
"shake your bacon" was a German mishap as we say "Schüttel deinen Speck" = "Shake your bacon" instead of "Shake your fat".
Azura Russia is waging a disgraceful war on Ukraine. Stand With Ukraine!
About translator
This is a good translation for someone who is just learning Swedish, but it's pretty literal. Here's some suggestions to fix this a bit:
Upp från norr till söder ja > it's probably better to translate "ja" at the end there to "yeah"
Nu ska vi shakea fett > Now we're gonna shake our fat
Det värste som dem sett > The worst /they've/ ever seen.
Ja hela golvet är för oss > Yeah, the whole floor is ours
Ha is i magen inga stunder får försakas > ha is i magen is "to have ice in your stomach" and it's an idiom. I'm not 100% of it's meaning, but I don't think is referring to ice cream.
Inga stunder får försakas > no moment is taken for granted
Nu kör vi > let's go
är ni på > are you with us?
