Cukrářská bossanova [English translation]

My friend eats seven cream rolls

And when he's finished those

He'll have even more sugary treats

He says good people don't get toothache

And it's great to travel all over the place

And have that sweet taste in your mouth

What a treat - sugar and coffee

And half a litre of Becherovka liquer

Hooray

Lend me 500 (Czech Crowns)

Today's bill comes to 400.

Cake shop assistants all round the country

Flutter their eyelids sweetly at him

And in return he sings

This cake shop bossa nova again and again

My friend drinks elderberry juice

He says there's nothing better

It's a massive hit of glucose, he says,

And I should drink some too

Just look how many women

Would open their legs to carry his child

But I suspect

He'll just turn into a big fat ball

And when someone gives him a kick

He'll roll off out of my life

And I'll be alone, completely alone.

What a treat - sugar and coffee

And half a litre of Becherovka liquer

Hooray

Lend me 500 (Czech Crowns)

Today's bill comes to 400.

Cake shop assistants all round the country

Flutter their eyelids sweetly at him

And in return he sings

This cake shop bossa nova again and again

My friend can't see his toes anymore

He's grown so fat

And he's just getting fatter

Sentenced to being fat for life

But people need glycids, he says

Our body is like a furnace

And it burns up all the sugars

Some get their kicks with alcohol

Some with drugs

But he gets his from eating sweet stuff

What a treat - sugar and coffee

And half a litre of Becherovka liquer

Hooray

Lend me 500 (Czech Crowns)

Today's bill comes to 400.

Cake shop assistants all round the country

Flutter their eyelids sweetly at him

And in return he sings

This cake shop bossa nova again and again
