Mitä kuuluu, Jussi? Olen pahoillani
Kun mä tekstiviestin laitan sinulle tänään
Minne otit bussin minun rahoillani?
En määränpäätäs tiedä vieläkään

Taas kiersin Saharannan ja asemalla
Turhaa ootin junasi saapuvan
Sitä muistoissani kannan kun Karhun lavalla
Kysyit kainosti: saatko luvan

Jälleen kuvaasi roskiksesta kaivan
Vaikken tiedä jos nait jo sen Juulian
Turhaan näen kai tämänkin vaivan
Kun sä suutelet jo jossain huulia
Kauniimpia

Luulin ettei meitä kukaan erottais
Sun muistan joskus myös sen luvanneen
En unohda menneitä, mä en toista ottais
Sä vaihdoit minut Kemppaisen Anneen

Etsin vielä kerran ja kuin eilenkin
Niin tuttuun ravintolaan rantaudun
Pidän tuopin verran viereisen penkin
Jos tänäänkään et tuu, mä antaudun

Silti kuvaasi roskiksesta kaivan
Vaikken tiedä jos nait jo sen Juulian
Turhaan näen kai tämänkin vaivan
Kun sä suutelet jo jossain huulia

Silti kuvaasi roskiksesta kaivan
Vaikken tiedä jos nait jo sen Juulian
Turhaan näen kai tämänkin vaivan
Kun sä suutelet jo jossain huulia
Kauniimpia

How are you, Jussi? I'm sorry
When I text you today
Where did you take the bus with my money?
I still don't know the destination

I wandered the Sahara again and at the station
I waited in vain for your train to arrive
I carry that in my memories when on the stage of Karhu
You asked cautiously: Will you give me permission?

I'll dig your picture out of the trash again
Although I don't know if you've already fucked that Julia
I guess I'm taking this trouble in vain
When you're already kissing lips somewhere
More beautiful

I thought no one would separate us
I remember you once also promising that
I won't forget the past, I wouldn't repeat it
You replaced me with Anne Kemppainen

I searched once more and like yesterday
I landed in a familiar restaurant
I'll hold the bench next to me for a pint
If you don't come today either, I'll give up

Still I dig your picture out of the trash
Although I don't know if you've already fucked that Julia
I guess I'm taking this trouble in vain
When you're already kissing lips somewhere

Still I dig your picture out of the trash
Although I don't know if you've already fucked that Julia
I guess I'm taking this trouble in vain
When you're already kissing lips somewhere
The most beautiful

Notes

"Sahara:" This may or may not be a reference to a soccer field in Helsinki known informally as "Sahara" because it used to have dusty sand before it was converted to artificial turf. It is part of a larger sports complex that includes Bolt Arena and the Helsinki Olympic Stadium. It is near a number of tram stops, although not a proper train station.

"Karhu:" Literally, "bear." This seems likely to be a reference to Karhupuisto, or Bear Park, a small park in Helsinki's Kallio district, where both Maustetytöt members lived in the band's early days. This park is also referenced in a subsequent Maustetytöt song. The park's stage has been a venue for bands.
