Lyrics

Leevi And The Leavings - Pohjoisen Taivaan Alla

Mun isä oli köyhä kirvesmies
ehkä saha oli tylsä
kenties höylä liian terävä
Sitä kännipäissään heräävä äijä pohti ain

Joka joulu tuli turpaan
joskus meinas tulla puukosta
mies voi kuolla suukosta
usein kuulla sain

Pohjoisen taivaan alla
kituutteli köyhä kansa
rikkailta lainaamalla
toteutti toiveitansa

Avoin jaloin halki Afrikan
meidän kylä piti jättää
kun imi kuivuus vedet kaivosta
nääntyneenä raivosta
päätin heimon johdattaa
sinne missä oli vettä
missä järvet jäätyy talvella Leevi And The Leavings - Pohjoisen Taivaan Alla - http://motolyrics.com/leevi-and-the-leavings/pohjoisen-taivaan-alla-lyrics-english-translation.html
nyt on muiden aika palvella
meitä vuorostaan

Pohjoisen taivaan alla
kituutteli köyhä kansa
rikkailta lainaamalla
toteutti toiveitansa

Hellekypäräni kestää säteilyn
kuvakortin pistin kotiin
laitoin terveisiä Andeilta
kun nuoren neidon lanteilta lohdutusta hain
Miten ohut on se kerros, jotain otsonia
on arvoitus
nyt kun irtoaa jo karvoitus
kun ihosyövän sain

Pohjoisen taivaan alla
kituutteli köyhä kansa
rikkailta lainaamalla
toteutti toiveitansa

Leevi And The Leavings - Under the Northern sky (English translation)

My dad was an old carpenter
Maybe the saw was too dull
Or,perhaps,the plane too sharp
That old man always thought about while waking up drunken

Every night got hit
Sometimes got nearly stabbed by a knife
a Man can die from a kiss
I often heard

Under the Northern sky
Subsisted the poor people
Loaning from the rich
They realized their dreams

Bare footed through Africa
We had to leave the village
When drought sucked water from the well
Exhausted from rage
I decided to lead the tribe
Where is water
Where the lakes freezes in winterLeevi And The Leavings - Pohjoisen Taivaan Alla - http://motolyrics.com/leevi-and-the-leavings/pohjoisen-taivaan-alla-lyrics-english-translation.html
Now it's time for others to serve
Us in turn

Under the Northern sky
Subsisted the poor people
Loaning from the rich
They realized their dreams

My pith helmet can take the radiation
I sent a picture card home
Wrote,"greetings from the Andie's"
As I was seeking comfort from young maiden's hips
How thin is that layer,some ozone
Is a puzzle
Now as the hair is already ablating
Since I got skin cancer

Under the Northern sky
Subsisted the poor people
Loaning from the rich
They realized their dreams
