Russian chanson is a musical genre covering a range of Russian songs, including city romance songs, author song performed by singer-songwriters, and "criminals' songs" that are based on the themes of the urban underclass and the criminal underworld.

Alexander Yakovlevich Rosenbaum is a Russian bard from Saint Petersburg. Although he was never part of the underworld /he is a doctor, / Rosenbaum sometimes employs peculiar musical time signatures and patterns in his songs, striving to sound fresh and unique – no common for a songwriter that employs gangster and criminal slang elements in his lyrics.
Among his most famous songs are gangster songs related to Odessa. Songs such as "Gop-Stop" (a comedy about two gangsters executing an unfaithful lover) which I covered with the help of mymate Yavor for our project BEREG.

English translation:
Gop-stop/Hold-up

Hold-up*, we came from round the corner,
hold-up, you took too much for yourself,
now it's too late to pay it back,
look up at the stars,
look at the sky,
with a fucking sober gaze,
look over this sea -
you're seeing it all for the last time.

Hold-up, you refused my advances,
hold-up, and how you loved the smell of money,
you wore squirrel furs,
crocodile skins,
lay down with all the generals,
and washed your legs all night,
you completely forgot the crime world,
so, for that, take this 'feather.'**

Hold-up, Simon, slice her under the rib,
hold-up, look up, don't break off the feather
from this treacherous bitch's
stone-cold heart,
go call Hertz now,
old man Hertz,
who considers her fashionable,
a very popular cold turkey
in our synagogue.

Hold-up, don't ask us for mercy,
hold-up, and don't call out to the moon,
you're better off remembering that 'raspberry,'***
and Vaska's picture,
where he snapped us
right in the window display,
in short, don't drag it out,
I ask you - that's it,
end her, Simon!

  • a 'Gopnik' or 'Gop' is something like a low-level violent criminal, perhaps 'hoodlum,' in English. The term 'Gop stop' (drawing from English) means a 'mugging' or armed hold-up, with the purpose of robbing or attacking someone.
    ** 'feather' ('перо') is Soviet prison slang for a knife, the implication being that the narrator will stab the second-person object.
    *** a 'raspberry' (малина) is, in this context, a criminal meetinghttps://lyricstranslate.com
