Wojtek Szumański - Ballada o maturze

The illusions are useless,
though piercing me from within,
because dreams don’t come true
about winning the lottery.

I already sat down to study.
There is no need for delay here,
Because I finally figured it out,
That I’m not going to be a rock star.
It’s the calm before the storm.
You didn’t want to learn in the old days.
There’s so much material,
and so little time.

Abitur, supposedly a step into the future.
I can graduate every year.

I can’t stop my anger.
I’ve had enough of “dolls” and “wedding.”

After that, I’ll take two hundred dollars.
And I don’t want anyone to blame me.
Instead of going for Fondant,
I spill like a pig.

I’m not a doctor, a lawyer, a lecturer,
or other clever minds.
Because more than 30 percent
I only count at the liquor store.
So if I failed,
let everyone know,
that I am not cowardly, I hope,
I’m going straight to the CKE.
And I’ll put the ax in my pants.
Then on Raskolnikov scale
for all her crimes at the Abitur
I’ll be punished.

Abitur, supposedly a step into the future.
I can graduate every year.

I don’t think about English anymore.
because it causes pain*.
So the one who invented it
I send letter of complain**.
According to the results of the mother, the message will announce:
“Mom, Mom, I passed.”
And I’d like to add:
“Hey, that was a joke.”
