Demise

How easy one hears of foreign downfalls
How heavy one takes the downfall of one's own country!
Of foreign ones it is but a faraway echo,
In your own it is a loud urge of death.
An urge of death, born out of hate
Conceived in revengeful spite and recklessness -
Now there is devouring, breaking and subdueing,
And even the best is lost in the fall.
That this country could not bear the victories -
The mills of God were grinding fast.
How terrible it has to pay now for the frenzy.
It was so tough when it beat the others,
So deaf to their victim's death laments -
How will it now bear being the victim

Melting

I don't know myself either.
This kind of feeling is... How should I say this?
I'm nervous, I'm a fool
There's something I want to hear from you.
What should I do?
 
Should I say it or not today?
How should I say it or not?
For no reason, I only wander around you
Slurping, thump.
 
Should I say it or not today?
How should I say it or not?
I'm just thinking.
It's almost the end of course.
 
Do you know how I feel?
Or maybe he's not quick-w
Look at this. He's smiling so beautifully.
There's something I want to hear from you.
What should I do now?
 
Should I say it or not today?
How should I say it or not?
For no reason, I only wander around you
Slurping, thump
 
Should I say it or not today?
How should I say it or not?
I'm just thinking.
It's almost the end of course.
 
Even a small heart.
If you can look into me
I'll lean on you.
Big in your heart
I want to get closer to you
 
I'll tell you today
This hidden word
You know, whenever I stand in front of you,
Slurping, thump
 
In my heart all day long
You gently seep in
Like a dream.
Love is falling
 
I'll tell you today
This hidden word.
You know, whenever I stand in front of you,
Slurping, thump
 
In my heart all day long
You gently seep in
Like a dream
Love is falling

Love me!

My heart loudly beats, in my dreams
Every time you start talking, from love
Every time you touch me with those hands
A new flame you ignite in me
And it burns me
 
When kisses you give me, it feels like I'm dying
It feels like you're dying too
This moment to me arrives, it arrives now
 
Amidst tears I was remembering you
When you touch me a little, these eyes dry
Very slowly you're coming to me (very slowly you're coming to me)
With a longing I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you to tell me how much you love me
So I can tell me 'Come and live!'
 
Every time you were gone, I searched for you
Oh Lord, where are you now! Come back to me!
 
When kisses you give me, it feels like I'm dying
It feels like you're dying too
This moment to me arrives, it arrives now
 
Amidst tears I was remembering you
When you touch me a little, these eyes dry
Very slowly you're coming to me (very slowly you're coming to me)
With a longing I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you to tell me how much you love me
So I can tell me 'Come and live!'
I'm a different person because of this love
Very slowly you're coming to me (very slowly you're coming to me)
With a longing I'm waiting for you
I'm waiting for you to tell me how much you love me
So I can tell me 'Come and live!'
 
Na-na-na-na-na (Na-na-na-na)
Na-na-na-na-na (Na-na-na-na)
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na

A rotten apple

Chorus
The river of the time runs into the distance unstoppably,
I rock on her waves, like a thin reed,
That's how my life passes by me slowly,
And I feel like I don't notice, how she passes.
 
I made peace, that the flow carries me away
Into the abyss of the times, where a clock delay it's running,
I don't know at all about everything around,
The only person I can trust is me.
 
I can't tell, whether I see a dream or reality,
I don't even have the words to describe how I feel now,
I'm too tired of yearning, but sadness haunts me.
Why did the circulation of these feelings capture me?
 
If you talk to me, you won't hear my answer,
As you can never conquer my heart with words,
I has only to take the first step - then everything will change,
The world will fall into darkness, it'll be black for all time.
 
Verse 1
What the new day has in store for me? May be, I'm doomed?
How real is this world? Perhaps, it's the charms of a dream?
Can I feel pain? Can I feel sadness?
My mind is at odds with my soul, I have no answer.
 
I'm too tired for all of this, I'm too lazy even to lift a finger,
I can't find the right words, can't understand other people.
Is it possible to turn things around and purify my soul?
Or people like me can never go this way?
 
Chorus

Extra
This is a hopeless century, where the light of hope has faded,
Whether I exist or not? I can’t find the answer.
If someone casually pronounces my name,
Let him add a word, what she lives for.
 
Whether my home is in the right place and whether it is my time?
Perhaps, I was born for nothing?
Is it possible to turn things around and purify my soul?
Or people like me can never go this way?
 
I can't tell, whether I see a dream or reality,
I don't even have the words to describe how feel now,
I'm too tired of yearning, but sadness haunts me.

If you talk to me, you won't hear my answer,
As you can never conquer my heart with words,
I has only to take the first step - then everything will change,
The world will fall into darkness, it'll be black for all time.
 
The last verse
If I take a step forward, If I take a step forward -
I'll destroy everything in this case,
If I grieve, if I grieve,
May be, I can clean up my heart with tears.
 
I know nothing about you and about me,
In this world everything for me is unknown.
If I manage to rise the veil of my heavy eyelids,
I'll destroy the world in this case, let the darkness devour it!

Beast

Here, have all my treasure,
Although they don't even cost a penny.
I'll be your beast,
Hidden away in a man.
 
Here, have all my treasure,
Although they don't even cost a penny.
I'll be your beast,
Hidden away in a man.
 
Here, have all my treasure,
Although they don't even cost a penny.

Hidden away in a man.
 
Here, have all my treasure,
Although they don't even cost a penny.
I'll be your beast,
I'll be yours, I'll be yours.

Un adio măreț

Tu, care-ai fost mereu rege
în nebuniile tale,
tu, măreț în toate cum ești tu,
dă-mi un adio măreț,
pentru a mă face să uit oamenii
care se schimbă atunci când pleacă.
 
Spune-mi, nu e inima mea cea care
nu mai vrea să danseze cu tine.
Spune-mi că viața e stupidă,
și-am să te cred.
 
Să nu ajungi și tu
la cuvintele ”ți-am dăruit anii mei”,
la cuvintele ”mi-ai dăruit ce știi tu”,
nu, n-o face și tu...
 
Tu, care-ai fost mereu rege,
dă-mi un măreț, un măreț adio,
un adio asemeni ție...
 
Dă-mi un măreț, un măreț adio,
un adio asemeni ție...

Just a friend

I've come to you with flowers, you tell me, that
We'll be just friends, I can't believe it, baby.
You know, I've seen no one but you around,
But I'm just your friend, just your friend.
 
I've come to you with flowers, you tell me, that
We'll be just friends, I can't believe it, baby.
You know, I've seen no one but you around,
But I'm just your friend, just your friend.
 
Do you remember, we were about 14, your and I?
I'm coming from the market in gym shoes and shirt,
And you, the most beautiful, were going towards me,
That's when I figured it out at once.
Nowadays we live separate lives in different cities,
And sometimes we can say 'Happy birthday',
All that wouldn't make sense,
If at one time you hadn’t been my first,
 
First love, first sparkle,
Where you and I spent the nights.
Everything is really different now,
Believe me, I'll never forget:
 
I've come to you with flowers, you tell me, that
We'll be just friends, I can't believe it, baby.
You know, I've seen no one but you around,
But I'm just your friend, just your friend.
 
I've come to you with flowers, you tell me, that
We'll be just friends, I can't believe it, baby.
You know, I've seen no one but you around,
But I'm just your friend, just your friend.
 
Do you remember, we were about 16, your and I?
You were madly in love with the other boy.
You and I are close, but in the distance,
And there’s definitely something between us - it’s a fact.
Today, ten years later, you're such a grown-up,
And looking at your photos, I'll smile,
You're so fresh, you're still a stranger,
There's all the same inside me, a lot of feelings.
 
I'll see you soon, may be in autumn,
We're powerless to repeat, what we had,
A lot has changed now, but believe,
I'll never forget:
 
I've come to you with flowers, you tell me, that
We'll be just friends, I can't believe it, baby.
You know, I've seen no one but you around,
But I'm just your friend, just your friend.
I've come to you with flowers, you tell me, that
We'll be just friends, I can't believe it, baby.
You know, I've seen no one but you around,
But I'm just your friend, just your friend.

Money, Money, Money

1. When the time finally comes,
pay for it once again, once again ,
then you will feel like someone,
who never have enough of scratch, have enough.
Even in dreams will not be like,
so that the money was enough,
that's why you always have to live,
as if nothing had happened.
 
Refrain:
Money, money, money,
how nice to have a lot of scratch.
Money, money, money,
it's so nice to have money in abundance.
Then your whole world,
if you have enough money to be rich,
to be rich.
 
2. Because the time will come for everyone,
when he clean oneself out till to the ground.
And then there will be nothing left,
only in silence swallow tears, swallow tears.
Cause the whole world is made like this,
who's got scratch, he's a guy,
And when there's not enough money,
life will give you a hard time.
 
Refrain:
Money, money, money,
how nice to have a lot of scratch.
Money, money, money,
it's so nice to have money in abundance.
Then your whole world,
if you have enough money to be rich,
to be rich.

Insomniac

Today, I don't want to think of your face
Today, I can't fall asleep, I just keep thinking of you
It's already been thrown away, I don't want to find the key
It's already disappeared, I don't want to rewind
All of our memories
 
I don't want to remember
Will these empty words bring you back
Even if you're not here
Yeah, I'm searching for you always
 
How can I sleep
Without you, alone
Even though I'm lying on the same bed every day
How can I sleep
It just keeps repeating
Missing you
How can I sleep
Who are you to do this to me
Burning me from the inside out, do you feel the same
How can I sleep
When you're really not here
Missing you
 
Looking back on it now
My words were harsh
But you always laughed and
Moved on
 
Even when I argued over small mistakes
And pricked you with my thorny words
You always said it was your fault
And said you weren't enough, no
 
How can I sleep
Without you, alone
Even though I'm lying on the same bed every day
How can I sleep
It just keeps repeating
Missing you
How can I sleep
Who are you to do this to me
Burning me from the inside out, do you feel the same
How can I sleep
When you're really not here
Missing you
 
I don't know what to do anymore
Or even where to start
I know it's only me that's feeling this way
But our memories make me lose my mind
This night means nothing without you
I keep looking for you, pointlessly
 
How can I sleep
Without you, alone
Even though I'm lying on the same bed every day
How can I sleep
It just keeps repeating
Missing you
How can I sleep
Who are you to do this to me
Burning me from the inside out, do you feel the same
How can I sleep
When you're really not here
Missing you
 
How can I sleep
How can I sleep

Sărutările tale sunt sărutări

Săruturile tale sunt sărutări
care mă fac să mă îndrăgostesc,
și vreau aceste sărutări
toate pentru mine.
 
Ele sunt arzătoare ca soarele,
sunt imense ca marea,
sunt sărutări pe care nicio femeie
nu va ști să mi le dea.
 
Dacă tu nu ești cu mine,
cerul e rece,
viața nu mai are căldură.
 
Săruturile tale sunt sărutări
care mă fac să mă îndrăgostesc,
și vreau aceste sărutări
toate pentru mine.
 
Dacă tu nu ești cu mine,
cerul e rece,
viața nu mai are căldură.
 
Săruturile tale sunt sărutări
care mă fac să mă îndrăgostesc,
și vreau aceste sărutări
toate pentru mine,
toate pentru mine,
toate pentru mine.

Adesso e Fortuna Flame and eternity

In the moonlight,
the sound of the wind flutters down.
It's a night on the blue water.
I will spell out my thoughts with my fingertips
that never get cold.
 
Io sono prigioniera
Please embrace me from my back.
In a low voice,
 
the language of your country is a little bit painful and romantic.
I am your captive.
 
Io sono prigioniera (I am prisoner)
You wrapped me gently tonight.
However
your eyes are black
even in the morning sun,
Black eyes sparkle at me as it is.
 
Once again,
faltering amor,
bring me back to a deep night.
A little mysterious lips melt me.
 
Io sono prigioniera (I am prisoner)
You wrapped me gently tonight.
However
your eyes are black
even in the morning sun,
Black eyes sparkle at me as it is.

Autumn Thoughts

Oh, darling!
Don't you know? Don't you know life is so sweet?
Your dream - how is it like?
When I look into your sincere eyes, tomorrow says hello!
So, let us just smile - life is so sweet.
 
The rainbow presents itself, and the stars are flying on
Silently making the world more shiny than how it was
And therefore don't give up. Don't make them let you down - yes, we are dreamers!
You can change - Singing rejoicefully, just build up your future
 
Oh, darling!
Don't you know? Don't you know life is so sweet?
Your dream - how is it like?
When I look into your sincere eyes, tomorrow says hello!
 
Yes, darling!
Don't you know? Don't you know? The miracle - let's witness it together!
Even when you have lost everything, the love still waits for you!
It has overflowed - life is so sweet
 
It might be not so easy for I to say something
Every time I hold my tears, feeling just so lonely
You always give me happiness when I'm in need - yes, we are believers!
Don't be shy, in such a impulsion - lend me your precious hands!
 
Oh, darling!
Don't you know? Don't you know life is so sweet?
Your dream - how is it like?
It can be anytime, the chance will come to us to say hello!
 
Yes, darling!
Don't you know? Don't you know? The miracle - let's witness it together!
Even when you have lost everything, the love still waits for you!
It has overflowed - life is so sweet
It has overflowed - life is so sweet

Alojz Waltz

Alojz Podre1, master of all trades
Master of mafia, mafia 2
Alojz Podre, it's all your fault
I'm wilting without joy, without joy
 
A point and a half, a man and a half
A man without mercy, without mercy
A nice place to stay, pretzels and beer
Song and laughter are all but a dream
 
Young eyes, long nights,
A short kiss, a short youth
I will go on a trip, far away from here
Far away from mafia, mafia
 
Alojz, without you, into space and time
Into years without misery, misery
A stamp and a half, a job and a half
Eight hours without worries, without worries
 
My son will grow up, my daughter will grow up
My years will turn to eve
Then, for a moment, for one fleeting wink
This song for you will bring me back the time
 
Alojz Podre, master of all trades
Master of mafia, mafia
Alojz Podre, it's all your fault
I'm wilting without joy, without joy

Tell me, that you're still waiting for me

The road is wobbling and the ground is dizzy
Everything in me is trembling
She was mine once, cute and sweet
But I ought to take my leave from here
So that no one sees my face
And no one hears my voice
Fate is catching up with me, I gave my body
And I've lost my soul on the wager
 
I know well that it hurts
Still, you have to find me
I know it well
I've screwed up everything
But I'm asking you to wait for me
Don't go!
Without you the whole thing is worthless
 
Refr.:
Tell me that you're still waiting for me
Maybe we could start again
You would give my life back to me
If you came again
 
Tell me that you're still waiting for me
Maybe we could start again
You would give my life back to me
One more time
 
The road is wobbling and the ground is dizzy
I wander alone on the street
I see your face
And hear your voice
Even though nobody says a word to me
It rings in my ear
As you ask me why?
But even I don't know the answer
I stretch my arms for the stars
But my sin chains me to the ground
 
I know well that it hurts
Still, you have to find me
I know it well
I've screwed up everything
But I'm asking you to wait for me
Don't go!
Without you the whole thing is worthless
 
Refr.:
Tell me that you're still waiting for me
Maybe we could start again
You would give my life back to me
If you came again
 
Tell me that you're still waiting for me
Maybe we could start again
You would give my life back to me
If you came again

The Good The Bad

Today I will go to the limit
I want for something to move
Seeing from up high to the bottom
Until something in me turns (Deep inside me)
Cold wind in my face
Rain falls, I don't feel it
 
The sky opens up
The force pulls me out
In my veins
I feel life
I want for it to happen
Was all already here?
The good, the bad
I carry both in me
Doesn't matter, whatever comes should happen
I want to face the storm
The good, the bad
I carry both in me
 
Today I will go to the people
I accept my fate
I want for myself to go against the current
And no power stops me (no power stops me)
Where the Flood comes crashing down
I find my balance
 
The sky opens up
The force pulls me out
In my veins
I feel life
 
I want for it to happen
Was all already here?
The good, the bad
I carry both in me
Doesn't matter, whatever comes should happen
I want to face the storm
The good, the bad
I carry both in me (I carry both in me)
 
I want to feel me
I want to lose myself
Nothing stops me (Nothing stops me)
I take everything to me
I want it now
I want Heaven, and Hell too
 
I want for it to happen
I am only here once
The good, the bad
I carry both in me (in me)
 
I want for it to happen
Was all already here?
The good, the bad
I carry both in me
I want to burn, feel the flames
I want to lose myself in the now forever
The good, the bad
I carry both in me (I carry both in me)

Be as you are

Tell me something that I don't know
ask me for something I haven't got
al least once in a year,
dare me!...
 
Make me a pepper-coffee,
call me by some wrong name
give me a little mystery
dare me!...
 
Chorus (x2)
 
Do only as you wish,
revenge rarely
a day from the calendar is enough
Do as you wish,
don't tell no,
be as you are!
 
Talk to me in some gibberish language
dress up in crazy clothes
pretend that you are his,
make me fall in love
 
Spend all the money on the card
buy every random thing
don't consider me,
surprise me!...
 
Chorus(x4)

Some days close to you

Years have passed since then,
I still haven't given up
I keep looking for her traces endlessly...
 
Sometimes I feel that she is
She's close, I hear it
a wall separates us
or just a minute
 
Where have you gone,
in what time, in what way,
in what parallel universe?
Where have you gone,
in what unreal city
It all seems like a paranormal game
 
Thousands of days and nights
I know, it seems crazy
I'm gonna search for you always
I'm gonna find you...

Send Me a Leaf

Send me a leaf, though from a beautiful shrub
that withers not, but grows at least one half hour
away from your house. Then
you are to leave and have strength, and I
shall give you thanks for the lovely leaf.

Pretty Baby

Nothing on
Neath that tight
Top you don
Every night
Pretty baby
 
Crazy street
Gives a start
On each beat
Of your heart
Pretty baby
 
Kohl-rimmed eyes
Dance and dart
Melt the ice
In men’s hearts
Pretty baby
 
Meadow flowers
Sweet of scent
Gentle showers
For your friends
Pretty baby
 
Blossoms bud
To your time
Come the flood
Come sunshine
Just a rose
Blown too soon
No one chose
Petals strewn
Pretty baby
 
You’re the first
Ray of light
As dayburst
Cheats the night
You’re a vamp
With drapes drawn
Like a lamp
At the dawn
Pretty baby
 
Kisses slash
Like a sword
Type a dash
On your board
Pretty baby
 
Your pert breasts
Crack the shell
Fly the nest
Spread love’s spell
Pretty baby
 
Rustling frills
Guard the gate
But the thrill’s
Worth the wait
Pretty baby
 
Violet hides
Violin curves
In your tides
Something stirs
Pretty baby
 
Just a bloom
Passing time
Night or noon
Rain or shine
Just a star
Love’s delight
When night’s far
Veiled from sight
Pretty baby
 
Just the dot
On each ‘i’
Bear your lot
With a sigh
Just a seed
Under net
First we weed
Then forget
Pretty baby
 
Baby blues
In your face
All must lose
To your ace
Pretty baby
 
You’ve one rhyme
To your name
It must rhyme
Or face shame
Pretty baby
 
You’ve one source
To your spring
Its sole force
King of Kings
Pretty baby
 
You’ve one door
Draped in veils
Troubadour
Through it sails
Pretty baby
 
Just the taste
Of a flower
Sugar-cased
In a tower
When you run
Out of steam
Will someone
Smooth your seam?
Pretty baby
 
Just a leaf
Losing hue
Just a brief
To leaf through
Just a joy
That’s now past
I can bring
Back at last
Pretty baby
 
Nothing on
Neath that tight
Top you don
Every night
 
Nothing on
Neath that tight
Top you don
Every night
 
Pretty baby!

Funeral Tango

I see them all right now
Full of tearful kisses
While grasping hands entreat
They all want to be told
Is death a one-way street?
Does death itself grow old?
And do I still feel heat?
Or only now the cold?
They’re opening my drawers
And coveting my pots
Already looking forward
To opening the locks
And finding my love letters
With silken ribbons tied
To read them snug inside
And laugh until they cry
Ha ha ha!
 
I see them all right now
So proper and po-faced
Like followers of art
Behind my wooden box
Jostling with their hearts
To show the deepest shock
Then as the cortège starts
To be first off the blocks
The old girls that they bring
Knew me – or so they claim
The kids under their wing
Don’t even know my name
And finding out how dear
My lilacs are to buy
Deplore the time of year
I chose to go and die
Ha ha ha!
 
I see them all right now
My old deceitful friends
A patient smile allow
To help them make amends
Oh, I see you my dear
Following primly on
Wiping away a tear
As it’s done in Lyon
And you don’t even know
As the churchyard you leave
The hell to which you go
With him with whom you grieve
Whoever he might be
The last of a long line
Whose ways to make you cry
Will prove different from mine
Ha ha ha!
 
Oh, I can see me now
Settling in for good
Into the sad and cold
Bony neighbourhood
Oh, I can see me now
In the arrivals hall
After my last grand tour
Which means I’ve seen it all
I see it all ahead
And yet they have the nerve
To warn me off the shorts
Make water all I serve
And not chase after skirts
To put some money by
A mackerel steak to carve
And wish the King long life
Ha ha ha!

Rabble Paris

Paris pimp
With girl’s eyes
Shifty looks
And old rags
Accordions
Bawling out
Won’t raise cash
Still it’s good
Gigolos
Undress you
In Bastille
Underpass
To get drunk
On your skirts
Make you scream
Still it’s good
 
Lilas grass
Pantin blooms
Can’t count all
Passes made
Shock in all
Four seasons
Brings in cash
Still it’s good
Since Dédé
And Bébert
Have been flush
Ladies feel
They’ve a right
To two-time
Still it’s good
 
Paris thug
Hands which slip
Make no friends
With the cops
Buttonholed
In neon
No angel
Still it’s good
Smart hold-ups
For the press
Front-wheel drive
Get-aways
A sharp tap
Just in time
Shekels stacked
Or else you’re good
 
Here’s to one
Here’s to two
For three bucks
I’ll see you
In the late
Editions
You’re in stir
Still it’s good
Here’s to last
Or nothing
You run with
Cut-price mobs
Best act smart
To get on
Still next time
May be good
 
Paris I’ve drunk
With raucous voice
Along the streets
You vocalize
There’s no more hope
In your patched clothes
Just the pavement
But it’s so good
But bridges span
The flowing Seine
For some romance
Illusion made
It’s rush hour now
But still so good
 
Abandoned kids
In neighbourhoods
Of meadows paved
Which make love grow
It also grows
In house and home
We have done wrong
Still it’s so good
Misty-eyed looks
Plunge in the stream
Which cleans the street
On which it sails
A boat that rocks
The lower berths
It makes hard work
Still it’s so good
 
Paris I keep
In heart of stone
A running count
Of fancy ways
A hat that’s tipped
When right to do
But when needs must
Still it’s so good
Gilt-edged firms
Anonymous
Honourable friend
Of high renown
A fashion plate
Of the rag-trade
Not kissing hands
Still it’s so good
 
Give me some change
And flash the cash
A nice discount
And gentleman
A fat chequebook
The bouncing type
What can you do?
Still it’s so good
In the Faubourg
Saint-Honoré
We take high tea
And then I’m off
One party gone
One party stayed
That’s a surprise
Still it’s so good
Oompah Paris
Your festive soul
Has got millions
For your poets
Just a few pence
For my old song
That rhymes with ‘cents’
And it’s so good

25

Cel dintai an el fain a fost
Insa nimic dainuitor in visele-mi nu-mi e
In cel de-al 2-lea pasii ti-am urmat
Fiindc-ai stiut cea cale ori asa parea
la al 3 lea inc-am crezut
c-am fi avut noi destinele-a ne uni
la al 4 lea mai mult eu am tanjit
Ins-ai trecut la lucruri mai de pret
 
La 25, inca suflu tragi
Ceva Mai mult decat se-asteapta de la un barbat
La 25, un vis palit a fost
Iar valul intentiilor mele-n desertaciune-s gasite
Si-n mainile-mi sunt zadarnicite
 
Oh Oh oH
 
5 si 6 o nascocire, un sarut
Secrete ce-au fost la viata aduse nicicand n-avem voce a le da
Sarind catre 8, destinat a fost sa fie am zis noi
sa apucam lasati sa fim sa ne stingem inc-o zi
LA 9 semnele eu am vazut
Reflectate prin tragaciul unei arme
10 soarta se repeta
Cei ce dragostea mi-au dus paliti in soare-au fost
 
La 25, inca suflu tragi
Ceva Mai mult decat se-asteapta de la un barbat
La 25, un vis palit a fost
Iar valul intentiilor mele-n desertaciune-s gasite
Si-n mainile-mi sunt zadarnicite
 
De la 11 la 12, in fraie-mi aveam viitoru
iar in toata adolescenta
Am zis ca poa n-am sa trec de
21-22-23-24
21-22-23-24
21-22-23-24
1 doi si 3
 
La 25, inca suflu tragi
Ceva Mai mult decat se-asteapta de la un barbat
La 25, un vis palit a fost
Iar valul intentiilor mele
valul intentiilor mele-n desertaciune-s gasite
in mainile-mi sunt zadarnicite
 
in mainile-mi sunt zadarnicite
in mainile-mi sunt zadarnicite

Fiecare Secundă

Fiecare pas pe care îl faci
Încerc să îl potrivesc cu al meu
Mergem împreună, unul lângă altul
În fiecare zi
Când îmi întind brațul
Și îl pun după umărul tău
Se simte de parcă suntem doar noi în lume
Orice ai vrea
Orice ai spune
O voi face mereu cu tine
Orice ai vrea
Orice ai spune
Ca să poți zâmbi oricând
Uită-te la mine, nu mă voi schimba
Orice s-ar întâmpla
Voi rămâne cu tine
Așa cum sunt acum
Ziua îndepărtată de mâine
Și cea insuportabilă de azi
Te pot neliniștii
Te pot face să te simți foarte rău
Dar te voi lua de mână
Chiar dacă totul se schimbă
Și trec multe zile
Timpul meu
Va rămâne cu tine
Chiar și în zilele în care ești ocupată
De fiecare dată când privești înapoi
Voi fi mereu alături de tine
Orice ai vrea
Orice ai spune
O voi face mereu cu tine
Orice ai vrea
Orice ai spune
Ca să poți zâmbi oricând
Uită-te la mine, nu mă voi schimba
Orice s-ar întâmpla
Voi rămâne cu tine
Așa cum sunt acum
Într-o zi
Când ne uităm înapoi la acest moment
Sper să ne amintim totul
Ca nişte momente luminoase
Orice ai vrea
Orice ai spune
O voi face mereu cu tine
Orice ai vrea
Orice ai spune
Ca să poți zâmbi oricând
Uită-te la mine, nu mă voi schimba
Orice s-ar întâmpla
Voi rămâne cu tine
Așa cum sunt acum

The country wants you (to be) stupid

What good is it if you learn too much in life?
It could explode your brain ...
What's the use of books
about the dead rulers?
All you need today is to be null!
 
What's the use of learning romanian language so much?
You speak it fluently from the age of 2!
Don't even exaggerate
with math,
but know so you won't tangle with money.
 
Chorus:
 
How beautiful!
The enlightened future
is shown for the idiots!
So, be obedient
to the dominant one
Don't forget that the country wants you (to be) stupid!
 
Don't try to succeed in life!
No job has future
and don't you dare
to try changing something
after 2000 years of 'sleep well'!
 
More onest is to find a friend
to serve you and be served by you
A solid back-up
will promote you quickly
in the national army of dumheads!
 
Chorus...

[Let them] dance

[Alba, Cami, both]
The heart of someone gravely injured is heard
Who doesn't sing nor makes noise
Who doesn't even know how to cry
I keep the word
My neighbour
A hug in pain
It goes burning sky and sea

 
Hope goes running, girl
Short steps, long life
It marches to its mum
 
[both]
Let them dance
[Let them] change the streets
That they can look at
Of thirst and hunger
Death in the streets
You prefer to remain silent
 
[Alba, Cami, both]
Let them dance (Let)
Let them dance (Let)
Let them dance (Them dance)
 
From the lungs
Drawing shouts
Of people without peace
Sewing broken and empty old people
They crawl on the floor
Evading, they're not here

 
Hope goes running, girl
Short steps, long life
It marches to its mum
 
[both]
Let them dance
[Let them] change the streets
That they can look at
Of thirst and hunger
Death in the streets
You prefer to remain silent
You prefer to remain silent
 
[Alba, Cami]
Let them dance (Let)
Let them dance (Let)
Let them dance (Let them)
 
Let them dance (Let)
Let them dance (Let)
Let them dance (Them dance)

The club of the ugly ones

Welcome to the club, the club, the club of the ugly ones1
The pretty ones here, here, here, frobidden to pass
Welcome to the club, the club, the club of the ugly ones
The pretty ones over here, over here, over here can't enter
 
This reserves the right of admission
And to the beautiful ones they give the plane2. Ugly ones, ugly ones
United in the struggle, pretty ones so few, ugly ones there are a lot
If no one throws you a kiss, nor asks you to dance
If no one sends the dogs after3you, nor the Prince Charming arrives
They see you and run away, then you already belong to the club
 
Welcome to the club, the club, the club of the ugly ones
The pretty ones here, here, here, frobidden to pass
Welcome to the club, the club, the club of the ugly ones
The pretty ones over here, over here, over here can't enter
If you, or you get sad 'cause you're ugly
 
No, no, no, what happened?4what happened?
The luck of the ugly one, the pretty one wants it
The luck of the ugly one, the pretty one wants it
 
Welcome to the club, the club, the club of the ugly ones
The pretty ones here, here, here, frobidden to pass
Welcome to the club, the club, the club of the ugly ones
The pretty ones over here, over here, over here can't enter

Bună ziua, tristețe

De când suntem împreună,
Tu vii în fiecare dimineață.
Îmi dai prima mângâiere,
Bună ziua, tristețe!
Prietenă care-mi semeni,
Tu ești singura oglindă
În care-mi pot contempla tinerețea.
Bună ziua, tristețe!
Tu știi secretul durerii mele,
Căci tu ești cea care a legănat-o.
 
Și dacă trebuie să-mi amintesc,
Tu vii să-ți pui mâna ta pe-a mea,
Și tu nu uiți niciodată.
De când suntem împreună,
Tu ești singura mea iubire.
Mă atragi prea tare
Ca să te pot părăsi.
Tristețea mea!
De când suntem împreună,
Tu ești singura mea iubire.
Mă atragi prea tare
Ca să te pot părăsi,
Tristețea mea...
