The band, and especially its leader, Shnurov, has long been famous for its catchy beats and irrepressibly bad language, somehow managing to be one of the top bands in Russia despite almost never being clean enough to earn radio play and despite its live concerts being banned in Moscow.
In 2008 Leningrad disbanded. Its former members run Рубль and Spitfire. The band reunited in 2010.

Potomu chto netu deneg ni rublia ni rublia
Potomu chto net kvartiry i mashiny net
Potomu chto ne umeiu ia varit' obed
Kogda net deneg - net liubvi
Takaia suka ehta se la vi
Potomu chtonetu deneg ni rublia ni rublia
I sredi moikh druzej liudej prilichnykh net
I eshchio ko vsemu ia kak mudak odet

Once again some girl is leaving me, leaving me,
Because I've got no money, not a ruble, not a ruble,
Because I've got no flat, and haven't got a car,
Because I don't know how to cook dinner.
When you've got no money, you don't get any love,
it's a bitch, but c'est la vie.
Once again some girl is leaving me, leaving me,
Because I've got no money, not a ruble, not a ruble,
And amongst my friends, there's not one decent person,
and anyway, I dress like a dickhead.
When you've got no money, you don't get any love,
it's a bitch, but c'est la vie.

Денег всегда не хватает
А любовь всегда на скупость проверяет
