Distemper Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ты попала в дорогие рестораны
Жаль что правильно презерватив использовать
Не учила тебя мама
Жизнь весёлая обрушилась на голову
Ни работать ни учиться ты не стала
Детство солнечное на шальные доллары
Разменяла променяла
Больше не надо стоять у доски
Больше не будут ставить оценки
Больше не будешь от этой тоски
Ночью лезть на стенку
Больше не надо шпаргалки писать
Больше не надо учить теоремы
Ты так мечтала подальше послать
Все эти проблемы
Только что уходит, то не возвращается
Просто так судьба не дарит образ жизни
На пути ведь люди разные встречаются
Грязные и чистые
Всё промчалось а тебе осталось лишь одно
Сквозь мечты антибиотики и боли
Продавая лук на остановке «Люблино»
Вспоминать о школе
Лучше всю жизнь шпаргалки писать
Лучше всю жизнь учить теоремы
Чем у метро в телогрейке стоять
По четыре смены
Лучше всю жизнь шпаргалки писать
Лучше всю жизнь учить теоремы
Чем замороженный лук продавать
И сморкаться в стену
The song "Продавщица" by the Russian punk-rock band Distemper tells the story of a young girl who leaves her school canteen and finds herself in expensive restaurants, but without the right knowledge of how to protect herself. Her carefree childhood is traded away for quick cash, leading her to a life selling onions at a bus stop. The lyrics in the chorus emphasize that it was better for her to continue her studies and deal with the boredom of school than to live a life full of pain and regret.
The verses of the song highlight the harsh realities faced by many young people who drop out of school or fail to prepare themselves properly for life's challenges. The girl in the song assumes that life will be easy once she leaves school, but quickly learns that it is much harder than she imagined. She is forced to work in menial jobs and face difficult situations that could have been avoided if she had learned the necessary skills in school.
The song's message is clear: education is crucial in preparing individuals for success in life. The girl in the song didn't realize the importance of education, and now she is paying the price. The lyrics in the chorus serve as a warning to young people that it may seem boring to study and attend school, but it is much better than facing the harsh realities of the real world without proper preparation.

Life doesn't just hand you a good life
На пути ведь люди разные встречаются
On your path, you'll meet different people
Грязные и чистые
Dirty and clean
Всё промчалось а тебе осталось лишь одно
Everything has passed and all that's left for you
Сквозь мечты антибиотики и боли
Through dreams, antibiotics, and pain
Продавая лук на остановке «Люблино»
Selling onions at the Lyublino bus stop
Вспоминать о школе
Remembering about school
Лучше всю жизнь шпаргалки писать
It's better to write crib notes for your entire life
Лучше всю жизнь учить теоремы
It's better to study theorems for your entire life
Чем у метро в телогрейке стоять
Than to stand outside the Metro in cold weather
По четыре смены
Working four shifts
Чем замороженный лук продавать
Than to sell frozen onions
И сморкаться в стену
And to blow your nose into the wall
