Net, ne sprjatat'sja mne ot velikoj mury
Language: Russian (Русский)
Net, ne sprjatat'sja mne ot velikoj mury Za izvozčič'ju spinu — Moskvu, JA tramvajnaja višenka strašnoj pory I ne znaju, začem ja živu. My s toboju poedem na «A» i na «B» Posmotret', kto skoree umret, A ona to sžimaetsja, kak vorobej, To rastet, kak vozdušnyj pirog. I edva uspevaet grozit' iz ugla — Ty kak chočeš', a ja ne risknu! U kogo pod perčatkoj ne chvatit tepla, Čtob ob"ezdit' vsju kurvu Moskvu.
