A apărut o nouă revistă,
There came a new magazine
Probabil c-o ştiţi şi voi:
You may know it
Se cheamă Trup şi suflet
It's called Body and soul
Şi e plină cu poze de oameni aproape goi.
and full of pictures of almost naked people
Din păcate nu există nici măcar un jurnal
Unfortunately, there's not even a daily newspaper
Care să poată să facă minuni,
to make wonders:
Să ni-i arate pe politicieni
Show us the politicians
Fără zîmbet şi fără minciuni; de-aia
with no smile and lies; that's why
De-aia (de-aia) nu citesc ziare, (ziare)
That's why (That's why) I don't read newspapers (newspapers)
De-aia (de-aia) nu mă uit la televizor,
That's why (That's why) I don't watch TV
De-aia (de-aia) nu citesc ziare, (ziare)
That's why (That's why) I don't read newspapers (newspapers)
De-aia (de-aia) nu mă uit la televizor !
That's why (That's why) I don't watch TV!
Multe lucruri deja s-au lămurit:
Many things are already cleared
Ştim precis că armata n-a tras,
We know precisely that the army didn't aim,
Miliţia n-a tras, paraşutiştii n-au tras,
The militia didn't aim, paratroupers didn't aim
Securitatea nici n-are glas !
The security service has no voice about it.
Noi am venit de-acasă
We came from home
Şi-am adus tot ce ne-a trebuit:
and brought all that we needed.
Am venit cu tancuri, am venit cu muniţii
We came with tanks, we came with ammo
Şi, gospodăreşte, ne-am măcelarit; de-aia
and just like home, we butchered up, that's why
De-aia (de-aia) nu citesc ziare, (ziare)
That's why (That's why) I don't read newspapers (newspapers)
De-aia (de-aia) nu mă uit la televizor,
That's why (That's why) I don't watch TV
De-aia (de-aia) nu citesc ziare, (ziare)
That's why (That's why) I don't read newspapers (newspapers)
De-aia (de-aia) nu mă uit la televizor (nici eu)
That's why (That's why) I don't watch TV! (Not even I)
M-am săturat de Petre Popescu,
I'm sick of Petre Popescu
De Marinescu m-am săturat,
I'm sick of Marinescu as well
Nu mai vreau cîntece tăiate la mijloc,
I don't want songs cut in the middle
Emisiuni cu generic schimbat.
Shows with different opening
Vreau să văd altfel de feţe,
I want to see different faces
Vreau să văd altfel de emisiuni,
I want to see different shows
M-am săturat să aflu ce se-ntîmplă în ţară
I've had enough of finding what's happening in the country
De la alte televiziuni, şi de-aia
from other TV stations, and that's why...
De-aia (de-aia) nu citesc ziare, (ziare)
That's why (That's why) I don't read newspapers (newspapers)
De-aia (de-aia) nu mă uit la televizor,
That's why (That's why) I don't watch TV
De-aia (de-aia) nu citesc ziare, (ziare)
That's why (That's why) I don't read newspapers (newspapers)
De-aia (de-aia) nu mă uit la televizor, oh-oh
That's why (That's why) I don't watch TV! (Not even I)
