Hladno pivo – Pitala si me

Pitala si me zašto tvoje ime
nikad ne provlačim kroz rime
zašto ga nikad ne ukrasim metaforama krasnim
pa da se time hvališ kalegicama s posla

Ma, nema šanse, nema tih para
da mi ikad budeš dio repertoara
pa da tvoje ime pjevuši ko stigne
da si svako tek tako na brzinu puni tišinu

Mislim da bih razbio gitaru
da čujem da te fućkaju na pisoaru
da me jednog dana gledaš poniženo
iz kuta dućana gdje je sve u pola sniženo

Ref.
Ova pjesma o tebi, koja si mi sve na svijetu
ovaj pokušaj da kažem neizrecivo
nikad se neće naći na nekom CD-u
imati naslov, cijenu i barcode

Zar da radio voditelj kreštava glasa
preko naše himne traži vlasnike pasa
da se cereka, kao dobra je zeka
u svaki jebeni singl ubaciti džingl

Ništa nije sveto
sve je bruto i neto
sve je zabava
2x

Bitno da nešto svira za žedna uha
da nikog ne dira dok pere il’ kuha
da narodu skrati onih osam sati
i da lijepo stane među dvije reklame

Ref.


English Translation

You Asked Me

You asked me why I never used
your name in rhymes
Why I never embellished it with pretty metaphors
so that you could brag about it to your colleagues

Well, there is no way, no money could buy
making you a part of my repertoire
so that your name gets sung by anyone who pleases
so that anyone could, just like that, in a jiff, fill the silence

I think I’d smash my guitar
if I heard them whistling about you at a pissoir
so that one day, you’d look at me, humiliated,
from the corner of a store where everything is half price

Chorus
This song about you, who mean everything to me
this attempt to say the unspeakable
will never be on some CD
have a title, a price nor a bar code

Should a radio host with a squeaky voice
through our hymn, ask for dogs’ owners
should he giggle, like its a good joke
insert a jingle into every fuc*ing single

Nothing is sacred
everything is gross and net
everything is fun
2x

As long as something is playing for thirsty ears
as long as it doesn’t disturb anyone while they’re washing or cooking
as long as it makes the eight our shorter
and fits nicely in between two commercials

Chorus
