Start Wearing Purple

Start wearing purple wearing purple
Start wearing purple for me now
All your sanity and wits they will all vanish
I promise, it's just a matter of time...

Start wearing purple wearing purple
Start wearing purple for me now
All your sanity and wits they will all vanish
I promise, it's just a matter of time...

I met you when you were a twenty, and I was twenty,
but thought that some years from now
a purple little little lady will be perfect
for dirty old and useless clown...

Start wearing purple wearing purple
Start wearing purple for me now
All your sanity and wits they will all vanish
I promise, it's just a matter of time...

I know it all from Diogenis to Foucault
from Lozgechkin to Paspartu
I ja kljanus obostzav dva paltza
schto muziko poshla ot Zzukov Mu!...
Party!

Start wearing purple wearing purple
Start wearing purple for me now
All your sanity and wits they will all vanish
I promise, it's just a matter of time...

So yeah, start wearing purple wearing purple
Start wearing purple for me now
All your sanity and wits, they will all vanish
I promise, it's just a matter of time!...

Funny thing, my friend Teri has this song on a mix CD she made a few days ago. I heard the lyrics and recognized it from your blog...and I said, "Hey, I know this song from my dad's blog!" and she said, "Oh my god, Gogol Bordello?!" Yeah, very cool indeed.

Does anyone know what this section means:

I ja kljanus obostzav dva paltza
schto muziko poshla ot Zzukov Mu!...

Is it polish?

I personally have no idea. I assume it's Ukrainian.

And I swear having pissed on my two fingers (reference to Russian "it's as easy as having my two fingers pissed on")

schto muziko poshla ot Zzukov Mu!...

That music came from Zvuki Mu (Sounds of Moo - cult Russian rock group)
