Soare cu dinţi
Robin and the Backstabbers Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Să fugim care încotro
Cântând pe gheaţa crăpată
Să ne luăm viaţa la mişto
Un pian pe calea ferată
Am moştenit
Un fitil aprins
Şi gloanţe de argint
Dar le-am uitat dinadins
A doua zi lumină
Ne zambeam stanjeniţi
Lacrimi de crododil
Soare cu dinţi

Şi nu-i important dacă ai pierdut sau caştigat
E important că nu ai participat

Se lasă noaptea în fotografii
Dar noi aruncăm cu zaruri noi
Acelaşi întuneric pe care-l ştii
Aşteaptă cuminte un semn de la noi

Arată-te
Dezbracă-te
Şi arata-mi
Unde am greşit
O mană atinsă
Ramasă aprinsă
Chiar dacă ţine
Acum un cuţit

Soare cu dinţi
Soare cu dinţi.

Şi nu-i important dacă ai pierdut sau caştigat
E important ca nu ai participat
Şi nu-i important dacă ai pierdut sau caştigat
E important ca nu ai participat
Şi nu-i important dacă ai pierdut sau caştigat
E important ca nu ai participat
Şi nu-i important dacă ai pierdut sau caştigat

Overall Meaning

The song "Soare cu dinți" by Robin and the Backstabbers talks about escaping from reality by singing on cracked ice and living life in a carefree manner. The lyrics suggest that the person has inherited something, perhaps material possessions or wealth, but has deliberately forgotten about them. The next day, they smile awkwardly and shed crocodile tears under the smiling sun, which is described as having teeth. The phrase 'teeth-bearing sun' can be interpreted as a sarcastic comment on how the world can be cruel and unforgiving, and that one has to be careful while dealing with people or situations.


The chorus of the song, "And it's not important if you've lost or won/ It's important that you didn't participate" can be seen as a reflection on modern society and how the pressure to win at any cost can lead to people compromising their values or beliefs. The lines "The night falls into photographs/ But we throw dice/ The same darkness you know/ Waits patiently for a sign from us" describe how despite escaping from reality, one cannot completely forget about it as the darkness still awaits. The final lines of the song, "Show yourself/ Undress yourself/ And show me/ Where I went wrong/ A touch that remains/ Even if it holds/ A knife now" can be interpreted as a plea for self-reflection and introspection, to understand where one went wrong and how to move forward.


Line by Line Meaning

Să fugim care încotro
Let's run away in any direction


Cântând pe gheaţa crăpată
Singing on the cracked ice


Să ne luăm viaţa la mişto
Let's take our lives as a joke


Un pian pe calea ferată
A piano on the railway track


Am moştenit
We inherited


Un fitil aprins
A lit fuse


Şi gloanţe de argint
And silver bullets


Dar le-am uitat dinadins
But we forgot them intentionally


A doua zi lumină
The next day dawned


Ne zambeam stanjeniţi
We smiled shyly at each other


Lacrimi de crododil
Crocodile tears


Soare cu dinţi
Sun with teeth


Şi nu-i important dacă ai pierdut sau caştigat
And it doesn't matter if you've lost or won


E important că nu ai participat
It's important that you didn't participate


Se lasă noaptea în fotografii
The night settles in photographs


Dar noi aruncăm cu zaruri noi
But we throw new dice


Acelaşi întuneric pe care-l ştii
The same darkness you know


Aşteaptă cuminte un semn de la noi
Quietly awaits a sign from us


Arată-te
Show yourself


Dezbracă-te
Undress yourself


Şi arata-mi
And show me


Unde am greşit
Where I went wrong


O mană atinsă
A touched hand


Ramasă aprinsă
Still burning


Chiar dacă ţine
Even if it hurts


Acum un cuţit
Now a knife


Soare cu dinţi
Sun with teeth


Soare cu dinţi.
Sun with teeth.
