Winny Puhh or Winny The Pooh

This was a thing when I left Riga two months ago and it's only gotten larger since then. Ear worm stuff, I like it anyway. It's an Estonian band singing about travelling to Latvia but I could never figure out what the hell the lead singer was saying! He's sort of famous over there in Estonia as a punk type dude. 


Lots of energy! So dig it.

EDIT: HAH! Trust Reddit user VerdigolFludidito come up with a translation:
(note. a Korsakov is a tough guy)


Our local man, one Korsakov, went to Latvia yesterday,
he carried three tons - he broke his leg.

Our local man, one Korsakov, got punched in the face,
it went rather badly for him - he broke is nose.

Our local man, one Korsakov, ate a fresh cucumber.
Stabbed his thumb in his eye - now the thumb's bone is broken.

Our local man, one Korsakov, he lifted up a cupboard,
He shouldn't have done this - now he broke his thigh.

[Chorus]

Our local man, one Korsakov, he saw a thief,
He wanted to call the police - he broke his jaw.

Our local man, one Korsakov, he watched the stars,
it's unfortunate that he did so - he broke his neck.

Our local man, one Korsakov, went to the shop yesterday.
He came back in a wheelchair - he broke his leg.

Our local man, one Korsakov, he smoked,
He got dizzy, fell down, broke his shinbone.

The life of a strongman is not easy.

[Chorus]

Our local man, one Korsakov, was putting up a plasterboard
thought it's an easy job and instantly broke his wrist.

Our local man, one Korsakov, jacked off yesterday
did it so hard, he broke his pelvis

Our local man, one Korsakov, brought home a lady
shouldn't have done that - he broke his finger

Our local man, one Korsakov, went swimming in the winter.
He never came back out - so he must've broken some bones.

[First verse repeats]

The life of a strongman is not easy.
