Työtön paska
Sydän sydän Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Kaksi miestä ovat
Ryhtymässä taisteluun
Miehet valitsevat aseet
Naiset puolensa

Et kai aio vielä luovuttaa?
En tietenkään
Suuren kuopan reunalla on
Taisto käynnissä
Isä kovistelee poikaa
Äiti miestään





Et kai aio vielä luovuttaa?
En tietenkään

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sydän Sydän's song Työtön Paska tell a story of two men who are about to engage in a fight. The men are choosing their weapons while the women are taking sides. The first verse reveals a conflict that may be physical or metaphorical. It is unclear whether the men will fight each other or whether they are engaging in a more ideological dispute.


The chorus of the song, "Et kai aio vielä luovuttaa? En tietenkään" ("You're not going to give up yet, are you? Of course not"), suggests that the conflict is intense, but that neither side is willing to back down. Both men appear to be determined to see the dispute through to the end. The second verse reveals that the conflict is taking place near a large hole or pit. The boy's father is urging him on, while the mother takes her husband's side.


Overall, the lyrics of Työtön Paska are ambiguous and can be interpreted in different ways. They may be about a physical fight between two men or a metaphorical battle of ideas. The use of gender roles in the lyrics also adds another layer of complexity to the song, with the women in the story taking sides and the father and mother playing different roles in the conflict.
