"Romanca" - Lyrics
VIDIŠ PRIJATELJU JA PAMTIM SVE
I MORAM TI REĆ DA IZMEĐU OVE
I MILION DRUGIH PJESAMA
NE POSTOJI RAZLIKA
Jer život taj za nama briše tragove
U dobru noć on pušta čudne vragove
Pa svaki san je hladnim suncem obasjan
A sjećanja su skoro sva ugasnula
Da pitaš me još samo jedno znao bih
Da boje sve tek s ovom rimom postoje
A noć i dan su nekog stiha trag
I nestat će kad naše pjesme izbljede
Zasvirajte noćas tu romansu
Tiho nježno da me razboli
Tugu kad umire slavuj
Kad se duša s tijelom razdvoji
Zasvirajte noćas tu romansu
Al polako da je čuju svi
Neka opet sviraju gitare
Već odavno nisam slušo njih
GOVORE MI DANAS
DA SAM U BANANI
TEHNOLOŠKI OTPAD
KO MAJMUN NA GRANI
A JA SAM BIO PRVI
INTERNET NA SVIJETU
NA BRODOVIMA S GLAZBOM
UMREŽIO PLANETU
Pamtim i sad sve snove svojih pjesama
Sva maštanja i lica što su nestala
Ko sjene su još dio mojih buđenja
Zarobljena u mene davno utkana

"Zemren lame peng" - Lyrics
Ora si zemër troket
Ora e çmendur rend
Akrepa nuk ka
Kohën vodhe ti nga jeta ime
Bora e zërit tënd
Mbi zemrën time ra
Mbuloi,Strehën e fundit, Të dashurisë
Dhe ndalen akrepat atje
Ditë pas dite ne
Rrahje pas rrahje
Më kot kërkuam
Or’ e përkryer, Një zemër jo kurrë s’mund të jetë
Natë pas nate ne
Rrahje pas rrahje
Ne të larguar
Por jo nuk mundëm
Se zemrën të dy e lame peng
Ora si zemër troket
Ora e çmendur rend
Akrepa nuk ka
Kohën vodhe ti nga jeta ime
Bora e zërit tënd
Mbi zemrën time ra
Mbuloi,Strehën e fundit, Të dashurisë
Dhe ndalen akrepat atje
Ditë pas dite ne
Rrahje pas rrahje
Më kot kërkuam
Or’ e përkryer, Një zemër jo kurrë s’mund të jetë
Natë pas nate ne
Rrahje pas rrahje
Ne të larguar
Por jo nuk mundëm
Se zemrën të dy e lame peng
