Reggaerekka [English translation]
Reggaerekka [English translation]
You climbed into the reggae-reggae truck
I closed the sides
I closed the sides
Then we went downtown
And we raved there
We raved all night
A ten wheeler, a big Scania1
I pick up ten ladies
The tank is full of rum
The truck bed is full of beautiful women
Girls are wating for me when I drive
My reggae-reggae truck
Come, follow the line of cars
Towards the beach
Whoa, what a debauchery, a field full of people
Whoa, what a carnival, now we can party
Oulu today and Jämsä tomorrow
We won't rest for two days
We are still going strong
Refrain (x2)
Toot, I honk the horn
Moped cars drive by my side
In the curve I wedge them to the rail
It's pointless to compete with me
I borrowed the car from work
I went to do a moving job
Small scratches don't matter
Nobody notices that now
Put the pedal to the metal now
Put on some music now
Raise your hands in the air now now now now now
Come on up in the cabin now
I'm driving into the curve now
I'm driving fast, hop on now now now now now
Intro + Refrain (x2)
It's Lesti's reggae song truck
Petri is a relaxed seasoned traveler
He could even hop in the truck from the air
But this ain't for free
But we sure can work out a deal
Ass, gas, a little money,
And an open mind
You have junk in the trunk now2
Headlights on now3
May I honk you now4
Let's use up some rubber now now now now now5
Girl, let's rave now
You can work my stick
Close the sides, get drunk
This is some Lord Est and Petri
Refrain (x2)
1. Scania is a major Swedish manufacturer of commercial vehicles, specifically heavy trucks and buses.2. The Finnish song text translates to "You have stuff in the car trunk", but clearly the text is based off the English idiom "junk in the trunk". This idiom does not exist in Finnish, so the Finnish song text relies on that the Finnish listener can relate this to the English idiom.3. The Finnish song text translates to "Raise up your headlights", which is a bit odd but correlates with the urban meaning "Headlights on" (When a woman's nipples are hard). https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=headlights%20on4. Squeeze a booby and pretend its a horn or klaxon type device. https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=honk5. The same ambiguity of the word rubber, in this context tires/condoms, exists both in Finnish and English
