Podzhigaya shishki ya chital kapustu
Burning cones, I was reading cabbage
Ya skuril vse list’ya zakativ rave-tusu
I smoked all the leaves, rolling a rave joint
Tvoya bivshaya prishla chtob menya uvidet’
Your ex came to see me
Tvoya bivshaya ushla chtob tebya ne videt’
Your ex left to not see you
Poka ona mne sosala ya kuril paketi shmali
While she was sucking me, I smoked packets of sh*t
Poka ona mne davala ya daval yei khavat’ zani
While she was giving me, I gave her food for thought
Poka ona mne sosala ya kuril i bilo malo
While she was sucking me, I smoked and it was not enough
Poka ona mne davala ya daval yei na yebalo
While she was giving me, I gave her a slap in the face
Ya uzhe s shestogo klassa prodaval marikhuanu
Since sixth grade, I've been selling marijuana
Ya uzhe s sed’mogo klassa vsem tolkal tabletki ksana
Since seventh grade, I've been pushing Xanax pills to everyone
Ya takoi krutoi! U menya v rukakh pomada
I'm so cool! I have lipstick in my hands
Ya pomazhu yei yebalo na stole pina kolada
I'll smear her face with lipstick on the table, piña colada
Podzhigaya shishki ya chital kapustu
Burning cones, I was reading cabbage
Ya skuril vse list’ya zakativ rave-tusu
I smoked all the leaves, rolling a rave joint
Tvoya bivshaya prishla chtob menya uvidet’
Your ex came to see me
Tvoya bivshaya ushla chtob tebya ne videt’
Your ex left to not see you
Yesli chyo-to ne znaesh’ to sprosi u menya
If you don't know something, ask me
Ya vsyo znayu ya vsyo vizhu u menya bol’shaya bashka
I know everything, I see everything, I have a big head
Yesli chyo-to ne znaesh’ to sprosi u menya
If you don't know something, ask me
Suka oblizhet moyo telo budto ona koshka
The b*tch will lick my body like a cat
O shishki shishki
Oh, cones, cones
Poka ona mne sosala ya kuril paketi shmali
While she was sucking me, I smoked packets of sh*t
Poka ona mne davala ya daval yei khavat’ zani
While she was giving me, I gave her food for thought
Poka ona mne sosala ya kuril i bilo malo
While she was sucking me, I smoked and it was not enough
Poka ona mne davala ya daval yei na yebalo
While she was giving me, I gave her a slap in the face
Tvoya bivshaya prishla chtob menya uvidet’
Your ex came to see me
Tvoya bivshaya ushla chtob tebya ne videt’
Your ex left to not see you
Tvoya bivshaya prishla chtob menya uvidet’
Your ex came to see me
Tvoya bivshaya ushla chtob tebya ne videt’
Your ex left to not see you

шмали — weed / pot
Шмали is a slang term for 'weed' or 'pot' in Russian. It's a word that immediately signals the song's edgy and unconventional themes.
In the context of the lyrics, the word appears in lines like "Пока она мне сосала я курил пакеты шмали" (While she was sucking me, I was smoking bags of weed). This usage highlights the song's raw and explicit portrayal of a hedonistic lifestyle, making it a memorable and somewhat shocking word for learners.
«Витя» is a boast from start to finish, and it never pretends to be anything else.
The narrator spends the track telling us how much he gets away with. He burns through buds and leaves, smokes packets of whatever is around, and turns an ordinary evening into a rave without a thought for the morning. In between he lists his credentials: selling weed from the sixth grade, moving pills by the seventh, and a claim that he already knows everything worth knowing. If you are unsure about something, he says, just ask him.
The line the song keeps returning to is about somebody else's ex. She came over to see him, and she left so she would not have to see the person he is talking to. That couplet comes back four times, and the repetition is the joke. It works less as a story than as a jab delivered over and over until it lands.
The humour is cheap on purpose and the swagger is deliberately far too much, which is most of what makes it fun. Be warned that the language is coarse the whole way through.
