Turha opettaa mua ristiin jalkojani laittaa
Synnyin syntiseksi, sori jos se sua haittaa
Kun jotain haluaa, se pitää sanoo ääneen
Kuultavan valkoisessa jonon ohi pääsee
En kaipaa rakkautta
Vaan kunnon kosketusta
Ota musta tiukasti kii
Kun joku kaunis päivä luoksesi saavun
Ei auta vaikka pukis' nunnakaavun
Tai vuoksein itkis' koko Argentiina
Jos on elänyt kuin Cicciolina
Nautinnon puolesta päähän nostan seppeleen
Ja halutessani meet mun eessä polvilleen
Maailman nähdä voi niin kauniina
Jos on elänyt kuin Cicciolina
Hyväilen nalleani, mulla rakkautta riittää
Joo, sytyn huomiosta, mun ei tarvii sitä peittää
Kaunista on olla vapaa sekä rietas
Liian moni tääll' on itselleenkin vieras
En tarvii sormuksia
Pinkkejä unelmia
Ota musta tiukasti kii
Kun joku kaunis päivä luoksesi saavun
Ei auta vaikka pukis' nunnakaavun
Tai vuoksein itkis' koko Argentiina
Jos on elänyt kuin Cicciolina
Nautinnon puolesta päähän nostan seppeleen
Ja halutessani meet mun eessä polvilleen
Maailman nähdä voi niin kauniina
Jos on elänyt kuin Cicciolina
Kun löytyy valuuttaa paidan alta
Mull' on tilanteessa aina valta
Katseet ja kommentoijat kauhistelee: ""Ei noin!""
Miehenä olisin jo kadehdittu playboy
Kun joku kaunis päivä luoksesi saavun
Ei auta vaikka pukis' nunnakaavun
Tai vuoksein itkis' koko Argentiina
Jos on elänyt kuin Cicciolina
Nautinnon puolesta päähän nostan seppeleen
Ja halutessani meet mun eessä polvilleen
Maailman nähdä voi niin kauniina
Jos on elänyt kuin Cicciolina
(english translation)

It's useless to teach me to sit with my legs crossed
I was born as a sinner, sorry if it bothers you
When you want something, you've got to say it out loud
You can pass the line if you wear shining white
I don't need love
I need proper touching
Take a tight hold of me
When some beautiful day I shall come to you
Not even wearing a nun gown will save me
Nor the whole Argentina crying after me
If you've lived like Cicciolina
I put a flower crown on my head on behalf of pleasure
And if I order, you'll kneel before me
You can see the world as such a beautiful place
If you've lived like Cicciolina
I caress my teddy bear, I'm full of love
Yeah, I'm turned on by attention, I don't need to hide it
Being free and lewd is beautiful
Too many people here are strangers even to themselves
I don't need rings
Not baby pink dreams
Take a tight hold of me
When some beautiful day I shall come to you
Not even wearing a nun gown will save me
Nor the whole Argentina crying after me
If you've lived like Cicciolina
I put a flower crown on my head on behalf of pleasure
And if I order, you'll kneel before me
You can see the world as such a beautiful place
If you've lived like Cicciolina
When there's currency under the shirt
I'll always have the upper hand in a situation
Glares and commenters are horrified: ""No, not like that!""
If I were a man, I'd be an envied playboy
When some beautiful day I shall come to you
Not even wearing a nun gown will save me
Nor the whole Argentina crying after me
If you've lived like Cicciolina
I put a flower crown on my head on behalf of pleasure
And if I order, you'll kneel before me
You can see the world as such a beautiful place
If you've lived like Cicciolina
