Basics

He said
''who wants to be with a girl
who can read a man's thoughts''

I said, baby I have no idea

what you mean by that.

He said

''I can't stand your eyes

I want the calm sea instead

there's too much in them

what you see is out of place''

He said

''I can't drown my face

I can't dive deep like that

I want a happy player

who wont bother if I play''

I asked, what do you mean by that?

I don't want you to drown.

He said

''Me, I haven't said a word.

I just can't be around''.

The Lute player, Caravaggio

Budala

Dvorska luda herojska

ne silazi sa scene

dvorana puna likova, 

zaključali su vrata.

Kažu ''vani gori sve, 

sigurni ste s nama,

sve dok ima predstave,

neće pasti glava.''

Ne smiju se sa sjedišta,

osluškuju kraj vrata.

Netko prozor otvara,

zadnji red se sklanja.

''Što kad metci ulete

što ako stradam''

dvorska luda hihoće

njiše joj se glava.

''Otvarajte prozore

nema više zraka.

Ovdje nije sigurno,

predstava je stara.''

Neka glava pala je

s daski kao lopta,

nasmijana zauvijek,

luda bez tona.

Prvi red pobježe,

zadnji još se skriva.

Ne znaju da vani svi

bježe od portira.
