(Chorus - Baus)
Kings of the Meripäivät, we run the scene,
Kotka nights lit, you know what I mean.
Setti leviää, feelin’ so alive,
Summer vibes, party's gonna thrive.
(Verse 1 - Smokemayn)
Meripäivät glow, lights shine bright,
Cold drinks flow, we party all night.
Juha’s songs playin’, memories in the air,
Finland’s summer magic, nothing can compare.

Kings of the Meripäivät, we run the scene,
Kotka nights lit, you know what I mean.
Setti leviää, feelin’ so alive,
Summer vibes, party's gonna thrive.
(Verse 2 - Chicago Yapster)
From Lahti to Kotka, we share a scene,
Celebratin’ hard, livin’ out our dream.
Same summer nights, same party tones,
Memory-loss hits when we throw down the bones.
With ladies around, we’re dancin’ till dawn,
After parties wild, yeah, we carry on.
(Chorus - Baus)
Kings of the Meripäivät, we run the scene,
Kotka nights lit, you know what I mean.
Setti leviää, feelin’ so alive,
Summer vibes, party's gonna thrive.
(Verse 3 - Smokemayn)
Alcohol flows, let’s raise our glass,
Through the nights of fun, we live life fast.
Räikkä in hand, we own the night,
No worries in sight, everything’s alright.
(Chorus - Megablaster)
Kings of the Meripäivät, we run the scene,
Kotka nights lit, you know what I mean.
Setti leviää, feelin’ so alive,
Summer vibes, party's gonna thrive.
(Bridge - Chicago Yapster)
Soak it all in, memories unfold,
Freed from the grind, let the stories be told.
From Lahti’s chill to Kotka’s heat,
We’re the kings tonight, no one can compete.
(Outro - All)
Kings of the Meripäivät, we run the scene,
Kotka nights lit, you know what I mean.
Summer tales told, we’re livin’ the dream,
Forever in the night, we reign supreme.
