Original subtitles

There were seven girls on The Albatross

But it's you who left this sadness in my head

You were seventeen when we were dating

It was in Augustów that I first laid eyes on you

Your name was Beata

It's a beautiful name, my love

Help us come ashore

There's no need to fear

We won't eat you, my dear

Eat you, eat you...

THE LURE

What are you doing?

Hi there.

- What's that smell? - Beats me, boss. I got a cold.

Then stay home and don't spread it around.

Mrs. Rockets, what's that smell?

We're cooking in here, boss.

Actually they're a friend's kids.

And this is a nightclub

with a liquor license and adult entertainment.

And this room is for authorized staff only.

Beat it, you two.

Fine.

Excuse me, boss.

Here you go.

Take your clothes off.

Nothing.

Sit down.

Smooth as Barbie dolls.

This is great!

I have to say you really got me this time.

Are those real?

Check for yourself.

Sure they won't bite?

They're still young.

So what do you suggest?

The slit in the tail?

Where's it supposed to be?

There it is!

Thing is, they smell fishy.

It's not that bad.

And if they dry out and change back,

just splash some water on them.

No offense, but I was wondering...

where'd you learn to speak Polish?

On the beach in Bulgaria.

That's great.

Just great.

Give it up for Miss Muffet and "The Banana Song"!

Swinging in the sun

And thinking lazy thoughts

There's a noise up in the sky

I slowly raise my eyes

I see a jet full of businesspeople

Packed to capacity

While down here there's just a carefree song

And the lapping of the sea

It's the banana song

It'll be all right...

I just splashed water on them. I didn't hurt them.

Hold on.

- Breadstick? - Please!

What are your names?

- I'm Golden. - And I'm Silver.

"Imgolden," "Andimsilver."

Very nice.

They can do backup vocals and strip.

Here's an advance.

Now get them something decent to wear.

I'm new to the city

I wanted to put my best foot forward

Change what I can change and get their attention

A mention, a nod I could be soaring

But life's gross and boring

I walk through the city Cars honking, polluting

New sights all around me

The lights, sounds, and faces never cease to astound me

Bright shiny neon

Is saying this is the best street to be on

Hustle and bustle Buses, people, and cars

So exciting we're not leaving We like it here

The city will tell us what it is we lack

The city will tell us what is it we lack

We've chosen to live here We want things to be clear

The city will tell us

What is it we lack

There's not a dull minute Lots of people live in it

The tastes, smells, and pleasures

The garbage, the treasures

Pigeons and sirens Horns and pylons

Streets hot and exciting Parks cool and inviting

The city will tell us

What it is we lack

It knows for a fact what it is we lack

We've chosen to live here

We want things to be clear

Hands made filthy by dirty deeds

Can't stand to watch it go to seed

Want to hang out here a while before swimming to America?

Sure.

Silver...

what if you fall in love?

Don't be silly.

Would you eat him?

Girls...

I want you to cover up a bit when you're singing.

Why that?

Give 'em something to look forward to.

Remember: Give it 100%...

But not 200% or 300%.

- Knock 'em dead, Krysia. - Nervous, girls?

Just have fun and let the rest happen.

Follow me.

Don't touch me.

The next act is Figs 'n' Dates...

featuring two sisters...

two little mermaids.

Let's hear it for Silver and Golden!

Nice, huh?

You were my heart's beating

My life and spring so fleeting

My dreams before and after

My wind, my wine, my laughter

After midnight in my town the streetcars all get lost

The night is run by demons and the wires all get crossed

Infernal powers fiddle with the routes It's all in limbo

And for some reason all the lines end up outside your window

You were my heart's beating

My life and spring so fleeting

My dreams before and after

My wind, my wine, my laughter

Someone asked me how you are How's it going

Someone with whom you're at war Out there, longing

Someone rushes through the night on a streetcar

They think they know the score but I'm already at your door

You were my heart's beating

My life and spring so fleeting

My dreams before and after

My wind, my wine, my laughter

Girls...

I'm so proud of you.

My pretty girls.

Jesus...

Where did you disappear to?

Golden!

- Who me? - No, Santa Claus.

It's been a long time since I've felt this lonesome

It can't be the weather though it's pretty loathsome

At night I get cravings that aren't quite wholesome

It's been a long time since I've felt this lonesome

It can't be the weather though it's pretty loathsome

At night I get cravings that aren't quite wholesome

Because I'm sad and so are you

Now he's sad 'cause we're sad too

You're all sad and they're all sad

We're all gloomy as hell

Bid farewell to cheerful smiles

Dark thoughts eat me up alive

I'm a fly facing winter heavy, black, and sleepy

Because I'm sad and so are you

Now he's sad 'cause we're sad too

You're all sad and they're all sad

We're all gloomy as hell

Champagne.

Hey, Silver!

What the fuck?

The name's Golden. I'll be right back.

You know I'm hung up on you.

I love you...

but don't tell anyone.

Golden?

Golden!

Open up, Golden. I give up.

You win.

Silver.

- Have you seen my sister? - She didn't come this way.

Have a smoke, child.

Go on.

I've never smoked before.

That's not good.

You want to have a pussy, huh?

I'm shaking all over.

"I'm such a shy thing."

You know it'll make you lose your voice?

I have to tell you something.

I really went crazy. You were amazing today.

I'm the one who's crazy.

Put it in.

Silver...

You want me to be a girl?

Don't be angry...

but to me you'll always be a fish, an animal.

I can't do this, as much as I'd like to.

Darling Mietek...

you'll be the world's first four-handed bass player.

Kiss me first.

Come watch over me closely

Follow my every movement

Take note of my tics and habits Memorize all my gestures

Be there at the right moment

Tell me when something seems false

Put your hand deep inside me and drag me onto the shore

If you do, I'll convert

To a life not bound up with virtue

Regain my former composure

Learn all your secrets anew

Come watch over me closely

Follow my every movement

Take note of my tics and habits Memorize all my gestures

Be there at the right moment

Tell me when something seems false

Put your hand deep inside me and drag me onto the shore

And if there's any time left

I'll have another try

At catching you off guard

In any way I can

That which endures forever

Inscribed in our memories

That which endures forever

Inscribed in our memories

There you are! Come in.

Next you'll be growing a tail!

Want some herring?

It was a cow.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

Mermaids make their way up from the abyss to the seabed.

Then they use it for leverage and swim to the surface.

I give you... The Lure!

You come in and look me over

You're picky and you're choosy

They all want to be with you

Every day of the week

A wink like a fish scale flashing in the depths

So many albums we could have danced to

You choose a vowel A-A-A-A

I'll have it played

Letters spinning quicker

Someone spiked our liquor

Let go for a second

Let love flow inside you

Discover the flavor of all that's denied you

Holy moly

Bitter tastes can be delicious

So you're lonely

Now I know that love is vicious

Holy moly

Bitter tastes can be delicious

So you're lonely

Now I know that love is vicious

They promised frutti di mare

Now we're feeling sorry

I'm angry as hell

Picking at love's cracked-up shells

One last piece of flesh

Lands on my plate

Charred like some scrap

No one wants to wrap

The head of entertainment.

I loved your act!

You were sensational!

The fiends are on the scene.

Don't push your luck or you'll get a broken arm.

You are my blood. I have horns under my flesh.

A fisherman broke this one off.

I tore this one out myself.

You're so beautiful, and you have a great fish tail.

And an amazing voice.

Want to sing with my band?

Keep an eye on her.

If she falls in love with a human and he marries someone else...

she'll turn into sea foam before the night is out.

Police.

Good evening.

What's "police"?

I can put the squeeze on you so hard you'll gasp for breath.

You ate a citizen who was out on the town.

I know nothing about that.

I wasn't born yesterday.

Leaves are falling like they've gone crazy

Ravens are pecking at nuts

The wind raises goose bumps on the bare ankles

Of girls walking home from their classes

The wind feels freezing on my bare skin

I just need some warmth and comfort

Leaves are falling like they've gone crazy

Ravens are pecking at nuts

Leaves are falling like they've gone crazy

Ravens are pecking at nuts

My breath condenses in the storm of the senses

Anxiety tugs at my elbow

Frost and dampness are now in motion

Bodies swell with emotion

Leaves are falling like they've gone crazy

Ravens are pecking at nuts

Oil on your palms Le! me hold them

Babe, I'll take you to Disneyland

We'll watch Paris burn together

See fire spread in Rome

Or in me

You have your doubts about going out I had a talk with Daddy

He has no buts regarding sluts

So what if you blew your debut

Next time you're bound to get lucky

Karma's like that, it can dog you

The limelight tastes sour

You have your doubts about going out I had a talk with Daddy

He has no buts regarding sluts

Oil on your palms Le! me hold them

Babe, I'll take you to Disneyland

We'll watch Paris burn together

See fire spread in Rome

How come you reek of fish?

I ate some herring.

With your fingers?

Krysia...

Go and bone those fucking fish of yours!

I worry about you.

Stop it.

Nothing in the obituaries.

- Looking for someone in particular? - You!

This one goes out from an admiring drummer to a semi-obscure singer.

Bill Chase with "Cronus."

- I don't believe this. - Stop it.

Good evening.

We open tonight's program with an exceptional case

that occurred last week,

when a Warsaw beach became the scene of a gruesome murder.

The victim's throat was ripped open and his heart torn out.

Missing body parts have not been found.

Foxes and dogs have been ruled out.

Witnesses are asked to come forward.

The only tracks on the scene are of a human and something reptilian.

If any of our viewers has any information,

please call our studios

at 43-10-53...

or contact your nearest police station...

Fuck!

How come we never play volleyball together?

We never roller-skate or ice-skate or ride scooters.

We can't go to restaurants or bars.

We work, but we don't get any money.

You're still kids.

Kids can't have everything they want.

- Brats. - Why?

I'll smack her, I swear.

One jellyfish, two jellyfishes

I wanna grow up and get all my wishes

Three jellyfishes, four jellybeanses

We want the plankton scrubbing our fins

Five jellyfishees, six jellyfishoos

Wanna walk on the water in my high-heeled shoes

Seven jellyfishes, eight jellybabies

Wanna drown in the water and stay dead for ages

Nine jellyfishoos, ten jellyfishus

Give me a boyfriend who isn't amphibious!

Let go of him!

Leave him alone!

Poison

Inside you

That's what the smell is

But is it done, is it done, is it done?

It goes to your head

Noxious and nasty

But is it done, is it done, is it done?

I can't walk this one off

I need my glucose

My hair feels like viscose

The pain's made me morose

But is it done, is it done, is it done?

I want to apologize...

for what happened before.

I'm sorry.

Oh, we're not mad.

Mind if I join you?

Hi.

I'll be getting real legs and a pussy.

You can have my tail if you want.

You want it?

What for?

I know you want a fish tail.

No, I don't.

You can't talk to him now.

He's getting psyched up for the gig.

Are you a mermaid?

We'll just see.

The colors keep changing

From green to yellow to red

Someone who never existed walked out on me

I'm getting up and falling

I'm falling! I'm falling!

Don't ask where I'm going

Triton! Triton! Triton!

You were really...

You need a lot of practice.

Triton said if you out off your tail, you'll lose your voice.

Nothing happened to him, did it?

Silver, you have to sing. We have to sing together.

That's a superstition, you moron.

Try to stop me and you'll never see me again.

Got that?

It's not my birthday.

What can I do for you?

I'm bound to the bed There's bile in the drip

No veil, just a tube in my vein

I'll be wheeled down the aisle in my surgical gown

As orderlies roll on their latex

The bedpan's bright gold The dinner's grown cold

And time flows like sweat off a midwife's brow

I cheer myself up with bitter chocolate

Bitter chocolate makes me better

You can always choose to walk out

As long as you sign the release papers

On your own responsibility

Your own responsibility

You can always choose to walk out

As long as you sign the release papers

On your own responsibility

That's for you, sis. To cheer you up.

So much smoke it makes my mouth dry

Bodies on the dance floor dancing by

Did I catch your eye on purpose?

I'm no rookie but I'm nervous

Spilling smokes my hands are shaking

Is this the wrong step I'm taking?

As fatal as hara-kiri my emotions make me silly

Hearts' magnetism pulls me in

Don't want to fall in love again

Just one moment and I'm reeling

You lit the fire of my feelings

On this dance floor I'll dance for you

Cheat on you but still adore you

Hearts' magnetism pulls me in

Don't want to fall in love again

Boss...

Silver could lip-synch. It'd be great.

In my club? Over my dead body.

Silver, don't get me wrong.

Everyone loves you.

I love all of you. Lots.

This is hard for me, but everyone wants duos now.

We'll have Golden go solo.

I don't sing solo.

My whole band's sick.

How are you holding up? - Fit as a fiddle.

I like that song of yours "The Fly."

That one's by The Lure.

Let's rock it a bit, huh?

What do I play?

Because I'm sad and so are you

Now he's sad 'cause we're sad too

You're all sad and they're all sad

We're all gloomy as hell

Because I'm sad and so are you

Now he's sad 'cause we're sad too

You're all sad and they're all sad

We're all gloomy as hell

Kiss, kiss, kiss!

Let's hear it for the newlyweds! Kiss!

The name of the band is Ballady I Romanse!

You have to eat him by daybreak.

Chickadee...

He's just a human. You'll be sea foam if you don't.

We're not human. We're just on vacation here.

You'll vanish into thin air.

Give me this night

Just this one night

Give me this night

Just this one night

In warm houses people fret

All the stress, too much to cope

But here hands are holding hands

And in every glass there's hope

We don't need that much at all

Just to party till we weep

Surrounded by these spinning walls

And the rain of dancing lights

Enjoy the fun before it's gone

Let's get lost and forget again

All the times when we felt down

There'll be time for all of that

When daylight comes around

Eat him.

What the fuck!

My fingers slowly ease their grip on your hand

The sludge of despair sinks to the bottom

One thing is certain

I'll be warmer here than in your arms

I'll be warmer amid these weeds and old car parts

Than on your knee

The undertow that drags me down

Is gentler than your hands and lips

One thing is certain

I'll be warmer here than in your arms

Now that I'm surrounded by creatures of the sea

Don't pretend you're sorry

'Cause I'll be better off here

So much warmer here

Amid these old car parts

Than on your knee
