lyrics
PO PROSTU CHCIAŁEM
To jest ziomka wyjazd, kawalerski we Lwowie
Dwunastu z nas jedzie busem z Warszawy
Co wieziemy to nikt sie nie dowie
Łyk fanty, kwas z butli i kazdy niemrawy
Pochowana emka po pigułach z recepty
Koks ziomek też skitrał pod gacie w poślady
Teraz tylko dostać na granicy akcepty
Z koksem skitranym przez ziomka w poślady
Po prostu chciałem przyjebać gruby melanż
Wjazd na granice,
Ukraińska straż wbija do busa
Chcą sprawdzić wszystkie miejsca
Przypał sie zbliża bo widzą w nas łobuza
Trzydzieści godzin mija, wrzucają nam zarzuty
Posiadanie, przemyt, atak oficera
Każdy już dawno przestał być skuty
Wracamy do domu, puste dragi, spocona cera
Po prostu chciałem przyjebać gruby melanż
Idę po Warszawie, praga północ, grudzień
Osiemnasta, ciemno, ktoś łapie mnie za ramie
Odwracam się a tu znowu pies mnie łapie
Ciągnie do radiowozu, znowu przeszukanie
To już trzeci raz w tym jebanym tygodniu
Serio, kurwa, weź, uspokój się
Zostaw mnie ziomku
PO PROSTU CHCIAŁEM
It’s our homie’s trip, bachelor party in Lviv
Twelve of us drive in a bus from Warsaw
What we are carrying no one will find out
Sip of fanta, acid from the bottleand everyone’s dizzy
Hidden mdma in prescription pills
Cocaine homie hid in underwear between cheeks
Now we just have to get accepted at the border
With cocaine hidden by the homie between cheeks
I just wanted to fucking hit a fat party
Driving into border
Ukrainian border guards enter the bus
They want to check all places
Problem is getting closer cause they see a rogue in us
Thirty hours passed, they give us charges
Possession, smuggling, attack on officer
Everyone’s not high anymore
We’re going back home, empty drugs, sweaty skin
I just wanted to fucking hit a fat party
I’m walking in Warsaw, North Praga (district),
December 6pm, dark out, someone’s grabbing my arm
I turn around and again I got caught by a pig
He pull me to a police car, again search over
It’s third time this fucking week
Seriously, fuck, c’mon, calm down
Leave me alone homie

1930s Greek underground. They can also be found performing in Khmer, Spanish, Danish, Romani, Ladino, Russian, Vietnamese, Hebrew or whatever other tongue might attract them. So long as the tune is catchy and a little shady, they'll give it their best shot!...more
