Текст и перевод песни Käärijä - Menestynyt yksilö

Menestynyt yksilö

(Musta piti tulla jotain)
(Musta piti tulla jotain)

Haaveet kaatuu
Kakskytäseittemävuotiaana piti olla omakotitalo
Oma piha, vaimo ja sopivasti kaks lasta
Koiran kera alla saman katon
Se ei menny nii, ei
Nyt poden etukätee kolmekybä kriisii
Tilaa tuoppi ja heitä hynät tiskii
Vittu, mikä fiilis
(Aaa!)

Kulkuri laulava
Kullan kimalluksesta kaukana
Ei pahemmin naurata
Nuoren pojan mielikuvitus alko unelmist laukata
Jotka voi nyt haudata
Kiristää kaulasta, tuntuu et tukehdun
Taisin ihan liian ison palan haukata
Voisik auttaa?
En oo toinen jalka haudassa viel

Kun mä huudan "musta"
Te huudatte "piti tulla"
Musta piti tulla
Kun mä huudan "musta"
Te huudatte "piti tulla"
Musta piti tulla
Kullanhohtonen menestynyt yksilö
Eikä mikää hito kummajainen yksiös
Taloyhtiön humalainen hylkiö
Kullanhohtonen menestynyt yksilö

Kela sanoi "meistä tuli muurareita, taksikuskeja, suutareita"
Mut osast meistä tuli pelkkii tunareita
Turhakkeita, joilla vesi tulee läpi kumppareista, vou
Jos sä tunnistat tästä ittes, ni huuda jou (jou)
Mitä? (Jou!)
Okei, hyvä, let's go (let's go)
(Aaa!)

Oli tavotteita, jotka piti naulata
Menestyä ja oma taverna aukasta
Mutta piti omat viikset kaupata
Jotta sais punasta Marlia kaupasta
Kiristää kaulasta, tuntuu et tukehdun
Taisin ihan liian ison palan haukata
Voisik auttaa?
En oo toinen jalka haudassa viel

Kun mä huudan "musta"
Te huudatte "piti tulla"
Musta piti tulla
Kun mä huudan "musta"
Te huudatte "piti tulla"
Musta piti tulla
Kullanhohtonen menestynyt yksilö
Eikä mikää hito kummajainen yksiös
Taloyhtiön humalainen hylkiö
Kullanhohtonen menestynyt yksilö

Menikö sulla hommat niinku luulit? (Ei)
Oisko tänä vuonna parempi tuuri? (Ei)
Entäpä ensi vuonna, mitä tuumit? (Ei)
No sitä minäki
Ollaa samas venees
Tän piti olla mun vuos (vuos)
Niinku mä sanon joka hiton vuos (joka hiton vuos)
Uudet kujeet, uus minä (joo)
Mut mä oon edellee sama hiton minä

Kun mä huudan "musta"
Te huudatte "piti tulla"
Musta piti tulla
Kun mä huudan "musta"
Te huudatte "piti tulla"
Musta piti tulla
Kullanhohtonen menestynyt yksilö
Eikä mikää hito kummajainen yksiös
Taloyhtiön humalainen hylkiö
Kullanhohtonen menestynyt yksilö

(Musta piti tulla jotain, jotain, suurta ja isoo)
(Musta piti tulla jotain, jotain, muttei lompakko lihoo, lihoo)
(Musta piti tulla jotain, jotain, piti tulla jotain, jotain)
(Ees jotain, jotain, ees jotain, jotain, jotain)

Successful Individual

(I was supposed to become something)
(I was supposed to become something)

Dreams are crashing down
At twenty-seven, I was supposed to have a house
My own yard, a wife, and conveniently two kids
With a dog, all under the same roof
It didn't go that way, no
Now I'm suffering a preemptive thirty-year crisis
Order a pint and throw your worries away, girl
Damn, what a feeling
(Aaa!)

A wandering singer
Far from the glitter of gold
Not much to laugh about
A young boy's imagination started to gallop with dreams
Which can now be buried
It's tightening around my neck, feels like I'm choking
I think I bit off more than I could chew
Could you help?
I'm not six feet under yet

When I shout "I"
You shout "was supposed to become"
I was supposed to become
When I shout "I"
You shout "was supposed to become"
I was supposed to become
A golden, successful individual
And not some damn freak in a studio apartment
The drunk outcast of the apartment building
A golden, successful individual

Kela said "we became bricklayers, taxi drivers, kissers"
But some of us became just bunglers
Deadbeats, with water leaking through our wellies, wow
If you recognize yourself in this, then shout hooray (hooray)
What? (Hooray!)
Okay, good, let's go (let's go)
(Aaa!)

There were goals that needed to be nailed
To succeed and open my own tavern
But I had to sell my own mustache
To get some red Marlboro from the store
It's tightening around my neck, feels like I'm choking
I think I bit off more than I could chew
Could you help?
I'm not six feet under yet

When I shout "I"
You shout "was supposed to become"
I was supposed to become
When I shout "I"
You shout "was supposed to become"
I was supposed to become
A golden, successful individual
And not some damn freak in a studio apartment
The drunk outcast of the apartment building
A golden, successful individual

Did things go for you like you thought? (No)
Will this year be better luck? (No)
How about next year, what do you think? (No)
Well, me neither
We're in the same boat
This was supposed to be my year (year)
Like I say every damn year (every damn year)
New tricks, new me (yeah)
But I'm still the same damn me

When I shout "I"
You shout "was supposed to become"
I was supposed to become
When I shout "I"
You shout "was supposed to become"
I was supposed to become
A golden, successful individual
And not some damn freak in a studio apartment
The drunk outcast of the apartment building
A golden, successful individual

(I was supposed to become something, something, big and large)
(I was supposed to become something, something, but my wallet isn't getting fat, fat)
(I was supposed to become something, something, I was supposed to become something, something)
(Even something, something, even something, something, something)
