Rafaelin enkeli
Ripsipiirakka



Language
Finnish

Physical Availability
Not sketchy at all. In Finnish, but English available. (I always find it strange to see the different web designs preferred around the world. To me, this place looks sketchy. But, compared to all the other Finn music sites, it looked legitimate...)

Background
Finnish is reputed to be very complex, especially in comparison to other languages spoken in Europe. A comment like that makes you want to run out and look at it, doesn't it? Now's the chance. There isn't much more I can add on the group, since everything seems to be - surprise - in Finnish. This song seems to be a cover of an original by Pekka Ruuska. The original is, well, very different.

Lyrics
Halki tuhannen savuisen salongin,
neiti tanssii gasellin askelin.
Mulla yllä on harmaa jumpperi
sain sen jouluna vaimolta lahjaksi.
Tämä neonsade silmää kirvelee,
diesel lemahtaa yö kun yskäsee.
Anna minulle armahduksesi,
ole minulle Rafaelin enkeli.

Huorat kuiskivat porttikongeistaan,
ujo poika ei sinne katsokkaan.
Ne sirosti niskojaan niksauttaa,
äiti neuvoi että tuijottaa ei saa.
Kurkku kipeänä aamuun ankeaan,
kuka käski mennä alasti nukkumaan.
Anna minulle armahduksesi,
ole minulle Rafaelin enkeli.

Lapset hinaavat kohmeisin sormin lippuja salkoihin,
kuka laittaisi niille edes kengät pieniin jalkoihin.
viime yö veti routaan tämän maan ja se maa on käärmeita mustanaan.

Hermokaasuja olohuoneisiin,
krokotiileja New Yorkin viemäriin.
Kuvia vielä kuvien jälkeenkin,
videotykilla suolaa haavoihin.
kuka sanoi etta askel painaa jo,
olen kevyt kuin sudenkorento.
Anna minulle armahduksesi ,
ole minulle Rafaelin enkeli.

Uutispuuroa aamupöydässä,
mies tarvitsee kunnon evästä.
Kumpi voittaa Karhu vai leijona,
kysyy minulta töissä johtaja.
Mikä minä olen sille vastaamaan,
multa luvut jäi kesken aikanaan.
Anna minulle armahduksesi,
ole minulle Rafaelin enkeli.

Lapset hinaavat kohmeisin sormin lippuja salkoihin,
kuka laittaisi niille edes kengät pieniin jalkoihin.
viime yö veti routaan tämän maan ja se maa on käärmeitä mustanaan.

Anna minulle armahduksesi,
ole minulle Rafaelin enkeli (x6)
Crack open a door into the thousandth smoky salon,
A woman dancing at a gazelle's pace.
She's got on a grey pullover
Around her its lit like Christmas
The glaring neon
Coughs the smell of diesel into the night.
Anna forgives us,
And that we are angels like Rafaelin.

The whore whispers right into my ear,
Diffident laddie, don't even look.
Those petite ...1,
I shouldn't look, my mom advised.
A hoarse voice from morning to dark ,
that bids us to enter bare while she sleep.
Anna forgives us,
And that we are angels like Rafaelin.

The issue tugs at me, numbs the banner pole,
But my little feet just keep going on in their boots.
The past night in the freezing water, she called the black serpent from the soil.

Nerve gas in the living room,
Crocodile in the New York sewer.
Diagram, further, diagram after,
The roar of the video the salt on a wound.
Which quotes lest the pace of print get behind,
Agile like the dragonfly.
Anna forgives me,
And that we are angels like Rafaelin.

An early morning feast,
Her husband needs some real help here.
She transcends bear or lion ,
Interrogating us like the boss executive.
What ego can go unanswered,
Her glare somewhere between ice and dust.
Anna forgives me,
And that we are angels like Rafaelin.

The issue tugs at me, numbs the banner pole,
But my little feet just keep going on in their boots.
The past night in the freezing water, she called the black serpent from the soil.

Anna forgives us,
And that we are angels like Rafaelin. (x6)


1. I'm pretty sure this is either slang for breasts or an older woman, based on google and some similar words. who knows.
