Feire Inc. - Säkkijärven polkka with english lyrics

{intro}
In november 1939
The Kremlin was lit every night
Stalin's got endless fears in mind
Oh what could come from Finland?

{verse 1}
He stuffed his men in brown coats
And sent Them to the land up north
With hopes and dreams, They'll come back home
Oh how They were mistaken!

{verse 2}
A couple meters in, They're lost in tundra
A bullet to the head, They're six feet under
With help of our friends and the god of thunder
What were They expecting?
A couple minutes in, You'll find Them freezing
Consider Them dead, now hear Their screaming
The winter's saved the Russians many times
But it won't do so
From Finland

{verse 3}
With a sniper rifle in my hand
And a couple cocktails from a good brand
Shoot down the flies and scorch the land
Send Them right out to Finland

{verse 4}
With brothers in arms
And hand in hand against Tyranny
We shall hold and stand
With only a handful of tanks at hand
Send Them right out to Finland

{verse 5}
In the mountains alone
While hidden in a prone
It'll be too late
When you find
Where it's from

{verse 6}
Conditions are rough
And Their armour is tough
But Our spirits are barely affected at all
There are so many of them and We are so few
So how are we going to bury them all
I think it's safe to say We aren't the ones
Who are suffering from any "horrors of war"

{verse 7}
In a hundred days
And a little bit more
The Soviets weeped at the death tolls
Now We may have lost
And our land is gone
But at least We've earned a bit of folklore

{verse 8}
Keep Your rifles primes
And Your sleep a little light
As We might come back for another war
To Take back
What belongs to Finland
And maybe a little more!

{outro}
Kun rakkaimmat rannat on jääneet taa
Niin vieraissa kulkija lohdun saa, kun
Kuuntelee soittoa kaihoisaa
Säkkijärven polkkaa
Se polkka on vain, mutta sellainen
Että tielle se johtavi muistojen
On sointuna Karjalan kaunoisen
Säkkijärven polkka
