lyrics

Třináct let sem – třináct let tam,
už čert to vem – zas vzpomínám.
Memento všem – jo lidi vám,
pro hluchou zem – pro bludnej prám.

Děravá paměť, co bylo bylo,
to by se vám tak zrovna hodilo.
Tak takhle ne, dočkejte času,
i na vás dojde – půjdete k ďasu.

Dvacet šest let – jsem v tom žil,
děkuji bohu – že ne dýl.
Byli však lidé – a mnozí ještě žijí,
co přišli o vše – a všecičko ztratili.

Prej je to dávno - a tak zle nebylo,
většině národa se to i líbilo.
Absence paměti – devotnost davu,
a rudá hydra za už zvedá hlavu,
a křivou hubu plnou jedu otvírá.

Děravá paměť – co bylo bylo,
to by se vám tak zrovna hodilo.
Tak takhle ne, dočkejte času,
i na vás dojde – táhněte k ďasu.

Století sem – století tam,
čert je vem – zapomínám.
Memento všem – jo lidi vám,
pro hluchou zem – pro bludnej prám.


ENGLISH:

Thirteen years here - thirteen years there
To hell with it now - I'm recalling it again
Memento for everyone - yeah, people, for you
For the deaf country - for the wandering float.

Leaky memory, let bygones be bygones
Catch me doing that
Not this way, patience is bitter
But its fruit is sweet
Your turn comes soon - you'll go to hell.

I lived that way twenty-six years
Thanks God - it's over
But there were people
And a lot of them are still alive
Who lost everything - lost everything.

It's said to be over
It's said not to have been so terrible
Most of the people liked it
The absence of memory
Servility of the crowd
And the red hydra is raising its head again
And opening its wry mouth.

A hundred years here
A hundred years there
To hell with them, I keep forgetting.
Memento...
