Vain yhden oluen 2012

about

Song for my ex-classmate who had some issues with alcohol.

lyrics

Totuttu tapa, kun sen päätät lopettaa,
itsellesi täytyy uudet ajatukset opettaa.
Silti mielesi vain entiseen vetää,
siinä vahvemmallakin itsekuri jo pettää.

[chorus]
Joka hetki minä himoitsen,
"jospa vain yhden oluen",
mutta yhdestä tulee kaksi,
meno muuttuu hurjemmaksi.
Viina miehen tiellä pitää,
ilman viinaa ei ole mitään,
on viina tämän kansan rappio,
jokaiselle oma häpeä, tappio.

Pullot kolisevat aamusta iltaan,
luotat enää vain alkoholin voimaan.
Kohta aika siis jo koittaa,
viina maksan viimein voittaa.

[chorus]

[chorus]

English translation:
A learned habit, when you decide to quit it,
you have to teach new thoughts to yourself.
Still your mind is dragging you to past,
even the strongest self-discipline will fail.

[chorus]
Every moment I lust,
"maybe just one beer",
but one turns to two,
and going gets wilder.
Booze keeps a man on the road,
without booze there is nothing,
booze is the decline of our people,
to everyone his own shame, defeat.

Bottles rattle from morning 'til dawn
You only trust in the strength of alcohol.
Soon your time is up,
when booze finally beats the liver.

[chorus]

[chorus]
