Our songs
Sometimes, we translated, fixed or even wrote sitsit songs from scratch. We are happy to share our texts with others.
Tax-free
Melody: “Yellow Submarine” by The Beatles
In the town where I was born,
Lives a man who plans to roam.
And he sails to save his cash,
Bringing cheaper drinks back home.
So we set off on the waves,
Till the Tallinn shores will come,
And we fill the ship with cheer,
Going back, the job is done.
Chorus:
We all sail for the booze across the sea,
Booze across the sea, hopefully tax-free.
We all sail for the booze across the sea,
Booze across the sea, hopefully tax-free.
And our friends are all on board,
Bringing back their massive hoards
All prepared to raise a toast,
And the singing never stops.
Chorus:
We all sail for the booze across the sea,
Booze across the sea, hopefully tax-free.
We all sail for the booze across the sea,
Booze across the sea, hopefully tax-free.
As we sail the Baltic Sea,
Everyone is feeling fine,
With the sky above so bright,
And the bottles full of wine.
Chorus:
We all sail for the booze across the sea,
Booze across the sea, hopefully tax-free.
We all sail for the booze across the sea,
Booze across the sea, hopefully tax-free.
Ode to Skinnarila
Melody: “Ode to Joy” by Ludwig van Beethoven.
Falling like a fucking fresher,
From Punkkerimäki.
Blowing up electric scooter,
Ripping off your lakki.
Coming back from pornositsit
Screaming at your toilet.
Feeling trapped, you can’t avoid it.
Now you can destroy it.
Warming ass in Tuesday Saunis
Ending in the Saimaa.
Then G-bar and meeting Jannis
Cures your every trauma.
Playing pomppa in the Kafi
Trapped by Grilliseura.
Trying catching saimaannorpa,
Getting Kaunis Veera.
Burning stolen wood at notski,
Counting Kela money.
Singing Krokotiili Gena
Our life is funny.
Mixing Jallu with Corillo,
Kossu and Gambina.
This is how we spend our evenings
Here in Skinnarila.
Song of ESN Sauna Master
Suggested only by Sauna Masters or Hosts.
Melody: “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” by Elton John.
Welcome to my sauna
At the end of day.
When the heat of boiling air
Take concerns away.
An enchanted moment
Water goes to stones.
It’s enough for all Finnish students
Just to feel like gods.
Chorus:
And can you feel the heat tonight? It is where we are.
Back to back, we sit here very tight under Polar Star.
And can you kick my ass today? I will bring my broom.
Northern lights are painting winter skies, come to sauna room!
There’s a place for everyone
If they only want
Leave your tired but sacred overalls
On a shiny floor
Girls and boys together
Maybe someone else.
We are naked, we are equal here,
That’s what nature tells.
Chorus:
And can you feel the heat tonight? It is where we are
Back to back, we sit here very tight under Polar Star.
And can you kick my ass today? I will bring my broom.
Northern lights are painting winter skies, come to sauna room!
Northern lights are painting winter skies, come to sauna room!
Student Life
Melody: “It’s my Life” by Jon bon Jovi
This ain’t a song for the soft and weakest,
Only for based and extra sickest
I don’t wanna be just a face in the crowd
I’m a Finnish student, and I sing it loud
Chorus:
It’s my life, it’s Lappeenranta
Here we have the longest Wappu!
I will party here while I’m alive!
Student life!
My life’s an alcoholic cocktail.
My body pose is horizontal.
I just wanna party while I’m alive!
Student life!
This is for those who graduate.
Your assignment is never late.
Tomorrow you’re out, and life fucked up,
You’re never able to come here back.
Chorus:
It’s my life, it’s Lappeenranta
Here we have the longest Wappu!
I will party here while I’m alive!
Student life!
My life’s an alcoholic cocktail.
My body pose is horizontal.
I just wanna party while I’m alive!
Student life!
People stand up
I am calling you up
Don’t cry, don’t shy,
And don’t back down!
Chorus:
It’s my life, it’s Lappeenranta
Here we have the longest Wappu!
I will party here while I’m alive!
Student life!
My life’s an alcoholic cocktail.
My body pose is horizontal.
I just wanna party while I’m alive!
Student life!
And it is now or never
This city gonna live forever.
I just wanna party while I’m alive!
Student life!
I feel like I am now immortal,
My body pose is horizontal.
I just wanna party while I’m alive!
Student life!
Kun mä kuolen (modified)
Kun mä kuolen pullo arkkuun laittakaa.
Kun mä kuolen pullo arkkuun laittakaa.
Sillä elo ilman viinaa
Ompi taivaassakin piinaa.
Kun mä kuolen arkkuun pullo laittakaa.
Chorus:
Singing jai-jai jipi-jappi-jai
Singing jai-jai jipi-jappi-jai
Singing jai-jai jipi-jappi
Jai-jai-jipi-jappi
Jai-jai-jippi-jappi-jai.
Kun mä kuolen vanhan piippuni sä saat.
Kun mä kuolen vanhan piippuni sä saat.
Noilla taivaan kessumailla
En oo piippuani vanilla.
Kun mä kuolen vanhan piippuni sä saat.
Chorus:
Singing jai-jai jipi-jappi-jai…
Kui ma suren Super Alko kaardi saad.
Kui ma suren Super Alko kaardi saad.
Ostad palju viina Eestist
Hakkad jooma otse letist.
Kui ma suren Super Alko kaardi saad.
Chorus:
Singing jai-jai jipi-jappi-jai…
When I die, you get my box of spoiled beer.
When I die, you get my box of spoiled beer.
You will open dusty bottles,
Smells like shit your hopeless LOAS,
When I die, you get my box of spoiled beer.
Chorus:
Singing jai-jai jipi-jappi-jai…
