Paroles et traduction Juice Leskinen - Tampere By Night

Tampere By Night

En ole Tampereen vanha hautausmaa,
Missä Viidan Late moikkasi kuolemaa
Olen synnytyslaitos, käyn elämään kiinni kuin leipään

Mutta elämä on alla lumen ja jään
Se on vankina jokaisen kusipään,
Joka arvossa kohoaa nieltyään rautaseipään

Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
(Allright, allright, allright)

Sitä hallita ei, se hallitsee
Ja mä ihmettelen, mitä viljelee
Mies, joka kynsien altakin myynyt on maansa
Hän orpona tähtiä pyydystää
Niitä kiinni ei saa, vaan pilveen jää
Hän itsestään luopuu ja huutaa Jumalaansa

Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!

Tässä seison ja synkeitä lauluja teen
Katson joka yö tähänkin kuvastimeen
Ja on peilissä vika, jos kasvoni vetäytyy punaan

"Enkä aina ole varmaan siitä mihin meen",
Näin sanoi julkea nainen kaverilleen
"Kato, soittajapoikia, niitä on moneen junaan"

Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!

Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!

Tampere By Night

I'm not Tampere's old cemetery,
Where Viidan Late greeted death
I am a maternity ward, I cling to life like bread

But life is under snow and ice
It's a prisoner of every asshole
Who rises in value after swallowing an iron skewer

Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
(Allright, allright, allright)

One can't control it, it controls
And I wonder what it cultivates
A man who has sold his country from under his fingernails
He orphans himself and chases stars
They cannot be caught, but he remains in the clouds
He gives up on himself and cries out to his God

Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!

Here I stand and write dark songs
Every night I look into this mirror
And the mirror is flawed, if my face turns red

"And I'm not always sure where I'm going,"
A bold woman said to her friend
"Look, there are musician boys, they're on every train"

Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!

Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
Tampere by night!
