Hey hay Russia is red well
Hey hay running on the beach

Hey hay singing with the songs
Hey hay driving out with long
Hey hay flying up the sky
Hey hay asking now it why

Round and around and around and
Around and around and around and around.

Overall Meaning

The song "Balkan Federation" is a frenetic and catchy dance track that seems to celebrate the idea of a unified Balkan region. The opening lines "Hey hay Balkan Federation / Greece is white and Russia red" refer to the colors of the Greek and Russian flags, respectively, and suggest a coming together of these two countries as part of the larger Balkan region. The repeated refrain "Hey hay" and the exhortation to "come on don't stop" create a sense of excitement and momentum, as if the song is encouraging listeners to join in a wild dance party that transcends national boundaries.

The lyrics also contain a number of surreal and nonsensical images, such as "running on the beach" and "flying up the sky," which may suggest a desire to escape from the constraints of everyday life and enter a utopian realm of pure sensation and pleasure. The strange phrase "No medical fun no medical lot" could be interpreted as a rejection of the idea of healthcare as a necessary but often unpleasant aspect of modern life. Overall, "Balkan Federation" appears to be a celebration of unity, freedom, and joyful abandon, as well as a rejection of the strictures and divisions that often keep people apart.
