(English Dialect Translation)

This is again radio Eurovan with our news (claps)
Oh, I'm sorry turn on the machine
This is is radio Eurovan, (laughs)
my name is Franz Ivanovich (laughs)
Hagen and this is the news (laughs)

I was born in XIXAX (oh la la la dee)
On my mama's farm
My father was a junkie
On the farm they own

My brother was a soldier (oh)
By the war in Vietman (shoot)
My uncle was a spy
In the Soviet Union
He know's that Mr Brezhnev is planning a reunion
He know's that Mr Brezhnev is planning a reunion
He know's that Mr Brezhnev is planning a reunion (ah, ah, ah, ah)

Well it's a big big big big secret (aum, aum, aum)
No no nobody understands except you I hope (wall ee dee)
Und den tauvis
Sigmund Freud, frog (frowen)

One day we will be free we will be for labor day
One day we will be free we will be for labor day
One day we will be free, hee, hee, nee, reet tear

Well I believe in Jesus (ooh ooh ooh ooh)
I preach it loud and stark (oh)
Jackie error wah oh (ooh ooh ooh ooh)(stupid jackie)
And there's a baby lock (Jesus dwells)
Et tos sin Eurovan etun news (secret)

There's going to be a big disaster
(Nobody understands, you I hope)
Gonna be war, war number three
(Dennis, Tom)
Going to be a war, something I know it, I know already,
(Sigmund Freud, I confide)
I know it now already, I can feel it though already.
Moscow's gonna become
(One day we will be free)
Washington's going to be number two
(We will be for labor day)
Big big big big disaster's gonna come
(One day we will be free)
Come on, come on, come on dance to the end, let's do,
let's do, let's do 'er up, let's do her up.
(We will be for labor day)

He know's that Mr Brezhnev is planning a reunion
(erump en nose)
He know's that Mr Brezhnev is planning a reunion
(who knows)
He know's that Mr Brezhnev is planning a reunion
(ba la dee dee, la dee dee)
Lie, ah, stop the news (nyet, nyet)
(I wonder if I can make soup out of this)
Nyet, lazy, watch 'em bloko, nyet, nyet, nyet

Born In Xixax Comments
Mayer said on September 25, 2010
XIXAX presents severe difficulties in transcription/translation, which are not well solved here. Not that I've got it solved. Still:

First stanza, "...on the farm they own" is way off. Should be: "...und wir waren sehr arm" [aka: "...and we were very poor"].

Later: I could swear I'm hearing something like, "...sind wir Damen, sind wir Damen ..." ["...we are women, we are women"].

Tell me if this helps? -- Mayer
