Dogs were barking, guests were parking

and my wedding was about to start

Dogs were barking, monkeys clapping

Then I got up on table and I said:

I'll meet you 10:45 on the Broadway Canal

in a disco-radical-transglobal...

comanja cooking up the original mixtura

s ulitzy do ulitzy the brilliant bassura

Mama---Diaspora!!!

Papa v Gogol Bordello!!!

Energija probuzdenija i ja!!!

Dogs were barking, monkeys clapping

bears were dancing and girls were cutting loose

Cops were lurking, kids were snarkling

then her father came up to me and said:

Vi bivali kogda nibud na vistavke sobak?

She was a 5-45, nashe delo tabak...

Da ja zge starij dobrij Opta-Hotza-Htzulo-Dzigit!

govorjat prosto bolnoi, ta nichego zhe ne bolit!

Nasha mama---Diaspora!!!

Papa v Gogol Bordello!!!

Energija probuzhdenija i ja!!!

Remember things, things that are eternal...

remember things...you forgot those things

Nelzja ponjat, nelzja izmerit,

tolko brasat', i tolko vvis!...

To make it all even more crooked

is impossibility of suicide

You pull the trigger, yet you are still standing...

just somewhere else, but with same dick in your hand.

And the dogs were barking, and the guests were parking

and the monkeys clapping and girls were cutting loose

thinking bout things, things that are eternal,

when her mother came up to me and said.

Dogs were barking, cops were lurking

and my dancing was about to start!

Monkeys clapping...

...Party!

...davaj tovarisch, like tovarisch would...

I met a crazy dancer,

a party tabashi

She held me by the hair I held her by the aaass

...nananana...

She was a crazy dancer...

...nananana...

She was a crazy dancer

Baja kuka napade original mixtura

z ulice do ulice to brilia bazhura

beat fun cool feel extoura

vyderzhit li vyderzhit aparatura!

...nananana...

And the dogs were barking, and the guests were parking

and the monkeys clapping and girls were cutting loose

thinking bout things, things that are eternal,

when her mother came up to me and said.

Dogs were barking.
