Rock ehkäisyvälineitä vastaan
Hassisen Kone Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kuollut, vanhus, mies taikka nainen,
Nuori, lapsi, siittiö vainen.
Sikiö, pienempi
Sikiö
Ja siemen
Uimassa keskellä
Siittiöliemen.
Siinäpä takaperin

Ihmisen elo
Sävyttämä vankan
Kuolemanpelon.
Siittiökin on ihminen vaan,
Eikä sitä julmasti tappaa saa!

Pillereillä murhaa joku siittiölastaan,
Nyt soi rock ehkäisyvälineitä vastaan.
Rock ehkäisyvälineitä vastaan!

Ei armeijan pojat saa kunnon lomia,
Kun käyttävät jatkuvasti kondomia.
Syntyvä lapsi on pätevä syy,
Testatkaa
- Varma pyy.
Abortti on rikos,
Sehän on selvää,
Mut ajattele ehkäisymenetelmää:
Tapetaan vain ihmisen

Varhaisempi vaihe,
Siinäpä tosi kova kapinan aihe!

Overall Meaning

The Finnish song "Rock ehkäisyvälineitä vastaan" by Hassisen Kone expresses strong views against birth control methods like pills and condoms, and the practice of abortion. The lyrics portray the various stages of human life ranging from a dead elderly person to a tiny sperm or embryo. The song emphasizes that even the smallest living organism deserves a chance to survive, and should not be violently killed by contraceptive methods. The lyrics suggest that the use of birth control methods promotes a culture of death and instils a profound fear of death in people's lives.

The song decries the ways in which birth control methods like pills and condoms are promoted and embraced in modern society. The lyrics suggest that the use of contraception has led to a lack of discipline and responsibility, particularly among young people. The song presents the idea that a child is a legitimate reason to avoid birth control methods and advocates for more responsible sexual behavior rather than using birth control as a quick fix.

Overall, the song's purpose is to encourage people to embrace life and promote a culture of love, joy, and responsible sexual behavior, rather than one of fear and death.

Line by Line Meaning

Kuollut, vanhus, mies taikka nainen,
Regardless of age, gender, or status - whether one is dead or alive,

Nuori, lapsi, siittiö vainen.
Even if one is a young child or only a microscopic sperm,

Sikiö, pienempi
Even smaller than that - a fetus,

Sikiö
Embryo,

Ja siemen
And the seed,

Uimassa keskellä
Swimming amid,

Siittiöliemen.
The semen ocean.

Siinäpä takaperin
That's what humanity is like in reverse,

Ihmisen elo
The life of a human being,

Sävyttämä vankan
Colored by a strong,

Kuolemanpelon.
Fear of death.
