In Leningrad-city,
at the Five Corners
Alex Sokolov
got punched in the face:

He sang unmusically,
they were scandalized,
Well, it means
that they did right.

In Leningrad-city,
it’s quiet and paradise!
Where are the pilferers and thieves?
Simply not to be seen!

You can’t compare it to Athens -
it’s cool,
True - compare the Swedes with the Finns,
well okay!

In Leningrad-city,
like everywhere, there are taxis
But don’t try to stop one,
don’t even ask!

If you drank a lot of vodka
while out on a binge -
You won’t want one, you’d avoid
the taxi stand!
