Teflon Brothers - Vexi oli velkaa (Vexi Owed Some Money)

mustan silmän tangon eka sointuu saa, draamasta draamaa,

 The black eye tango is the one it gets to tune first, drama of drama,

snapp musaa terri teit työllistää ja kuskaa, ku perinteiset pusaa ja hustlaa

 Snapp music, you're employed and driven by Terri, when trad ones tinker and hustle

Katuhakkaaja Make pitää hakee, Vexi on velkaa, ei selitykset kelpaa

 Street beater Make has to be retrieved, Vexi owes some money, explanations ain't good enough

äiti opetti: älä säädä jos ei oo päivä päätteeks pätää päällä

 Mom taught: don't messle with it if at the end of the day you ain't got a lot of money on you

Tatuoija Jari ja Hepatiitti Kari, haettava iraa ni sait iha kilari

 Tattooer Jari and Hepatitus Kari, getting on your nerves so that you lost your temper

ne släppää yhest lapinkullasta, pilkkeen sun silmäkulmasta

 They slap the twinkle outta your eye for one Lapin Kulta

It's a brand of beer, a pretty cheap one. Name translates to Gold of Lapland. 

yytsii utsii muovipussiin, syvään kuoppaan lähi skutsiin

 Peeks into a new plastic bag, into a deep hole in the nearby forest

vähä häijyy, mut metsä yytsii niinku sitä väijyy

 A little mean, but the forest looks back at you the way you stalk it


Oikee ja vasen, tuomari tuomion suo, ku tappelupukari tulee sun luo

 Right and left, the judge casts their judgement, when the brawler comes to you

ja sul on parast olla sitä olla paaluu kun mun saattue saapuu

 and you better have that cheddar when my crew arrives

Cheddar as in the slang word for money. "Paalu" means "a pole", but is also a slang word for money. I chose "cheddar" because it (slant) rhymes with "better". The Finnish words "parast" and "paaluu" alliterate, they both start with "pa-".

Mesta: Lassilan tebis, Tepolla on laskuista debis

 Joint: Tebis is Lassila, Teppo is depressed 'cuz of his bills

Tebis = Teboil, a gas station chain.

Allulla on alumiinimaila, se pelas junnuna pesist

 Allu got a aluminum bat, he played baseball as a kid

Well, pesäpallo is technically not the same as baseball, but they are similar sports. And that's not the point of the bar, the point is that he has a bat because he used to play a sport as a kid that used a bat.

aina vertaista vastusta vailla, mentiin Vexii metsiin metskaa

 Always lacking a worthy opponent, we went away into the forest to hunt

jos se on tektsii vaille niin se tekstaa Jokelle tai mainerin pokelle

 If it's missin' the text, then text Jokke or Miner's bouncer

I assume "Maineri" = Miner and refers to Kaivopuisto (Kaivopuisto = The Well Park, but 'kaivos' = 'a mine') or a place near it? I do not know for sure, though. I don't know my Helsinki geography.

extraa sille joka menee sen porukoide ovelle venaa

 Extra to whoever goes to his folks' door and waits

pikku Suskilta faktoja venäsin ja kelasin et jos vartin voimii keräisin

 I awaited facts from lil' Suski and thought I'd gather my strength for a fifteen

mut ku yllättäen reidet auki revähti niin se vierailu venähti

 But when those thighs suddenly stretched open, that visit took longer than expected

missä mies menee? ei mitään ideoit

 Where are you, dude? No ideas

se oli vieny makkara-Masalt kasan videoit

 He had takes a stack of videos from Sausage-Masa

mut ei oravan nahat vittu Volille kelpaa, Vexi on velkaa (se o äijä)

 But Voli wont fucking accept squirrel skins, Vexi owes some money (he's the man)

Squirrel skins were used as currency in Finland before coins and paper money spread into the area.

Olin kuin kosmetiikka sulle annoin toivoo

 I was like cosmetics, bringin' you hope

nyt eksplisiittisesti ois jo paalun aika

 Now it'd explicitly be the time for dead presidents

tai sul on paalupaikka helvettiin, selkeet?

 or it's your time to join them, got it?

Literally, he says "Now it'd explicitly be the time for 'pole' (a slang word for money which was in the chorus of the song as well, here I translated it to 'dead presidents' so it'd work with the next bar) or you got a pole position going to Hell, got it?"

ja jos tilin saldo ei mua puhuttele, muista en uhittele

 And if the balance of the account ain't speakin' to me, remember, I don't make (empty) threats

mä usuttelen jengii jengin päälle, näin jengii hengilt pääsee (iisii)

 I egg people on people, that's how people lose their lives (easy)

löydän sut ilman TomTomii, tunnen kaikki ja kaikki tietää Volin

 I'll find you without a TomTom, I know everyone and everyone knows Voli

TomTom is (was?) a brand of navigators, the devices we used after paper maps, before Google Maps, to navigate to places.

mä tiiän, sul on tekosyitä kyllä, jengi tuntee mut teoista, syystä

 I know, you got plenty of excuses, people know me for my actions, for a good reason

ootsä kuullu baseball polvest? pidä toinen simmu aina auki (pidä se)

 You heard of a baseball knee? Always keep one eye open (do it)

niinku mtv3, sekotan työn huviin ja nautin

 Like MTV3, I mix business and pleasure and enjoy it

MTV3 is a commercial tv channel.
