Нам казали...
Нам казали стояти – ми стояли
Нам казали лежати – ми лежали
Нам казали кричати – ми кричати
Нам казали качумайте – качумали
Нам казали не моргати – не моргали
Нам казали буде добре – ми чекали
І всі дружно головами їм махали
Ну шо із того всього ми дістали?
Приспів:
Тара-та й-та-ратата-там
Тара-та й-та-ратата-там
Тара-та й-та-ратата-там
Тара-та й-та-ратата-там
Нам казали свистіти – ми свистіли
Нам казали гудіти – ми гуділи
Нам казали свербіти – ми свербіли
Нам казали дуріти – ми дуріли
Нам казали кусати – ми кусати
Показали як ковтати – ми ковтали
І на вуха нам лапшу свою мотали
Ну шо із того всього ми дістали?
Приспів
Нам казали "Перестаньте" – перестали
Нам казали "В нас не вийшло" і змотались
А ми сіли покурили і поржали
Ну шо із того всього ми дістали?
Приспів (2)
We were told ...
We were told to stand - we stood
We were told to lie down - we lay down
We were told to shout - we shout
We were told kachumayte - kachumali
We were told not to blink - not to blink
We were told it would be fine - we waited
And everyone shook their heads in unison
Well, what did we get out of it all?
Refrain:
Tara-ta and-ta-ratata-there
Tara-ta and-ta-ratata-there
Tara-ta and-ta-ratata-there
Tara-ta and-ta-ratata-there
We were told to whistle - we whistled
We were told to buzz - we buzzed
We were told to itch - we itched
We were told to be stupid - we were stupid
We were told to bite - we bite
They showed us how to swallow - we swallowed
And they wrapped their noodles in our ears
Well, what did we get out of it all?
Refrain
We were told "Stop" - stopped
We were told "We didn't succeed" and rolled up
And we sat down, smoked and growled
Well, what did we get out of it all?
