Oare cat o sa ma certe tata tam tara tam
How much is my father going to berate me
Sa ma culc in pat atunci cand noaptea bate la geam?
To go to sleep when the night knocks at my window?
Dar nici mama incantata nu`i cand vede ca eu
Not even my mother is happy when she sees that i
Pun papusile sa faca nani in locul meu.
Make the toys sleep for me.
Pe o ureche`mi intra si pe alta`mi iese
I never pay attention
Knd imi spune kre lucruri trebuie sa le fac
When he tells me what i should do
Si care nu s bune
and what i shouldn't
Uite o vorba: dak m`am jucat cu canele
Here's a rule: if i played with the dog
Tre' neaparat sa`mi spal cu apa manele!
i must wash my hands!
Poate am noroc sa fac si ceea ce nu se poate,
Maybe i'm lucky to do even the things that aren't allowed
Mai ales knd tata stiu k cearta dar nu ma bate
Especially when i know that my father berates me but he doesn't beat me
Stiu k nu`ti prea place dar si tu adu`ti aminte
I know you don't like it, but remember
Knd ai fost ca mine nu cred c`ai fost mai cuminte...
When you were my age i don't think you were any better...
La la la....mai cumïnte....la la la
la la la...any better...la la la
