Slobodná Európa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Niekto tuší, nikto nevie a možno ani CIA
CNN 1992, každý deň nová aféra
Elvis Presley nezomrel a na Borneu našli Hitlera
Všetko je podvod
Aj tvoje oči, sweet Marylin
Všetko je podvod, my litlle "bejb"
Všetko je podvod
Aj tvoje oči sweet Marylin
Všetko je podvod my litlle "bejb"
Praha 1989, ten čas rýchlo uletel
Kto bol in a kto bol out a prečo nikto nesedel?
Sme iba malé ryby, potrava pre veľký svet
Ja mám svoju hlavu, ženu a kľud a ostatné je iba kabaret
Všetko je podvod
Aj tvoje oči, sweet Marylin
Všetko je podvod, my litlle "bejb"
Všetko je podvod
Aj tvoje oči sweet Marylin
Všetko je podvod my litlle "bejb"

The lyrics of Slobodná Európa's "Podvod" (Deception) touch on different themes of conspiracy and mistrust in society. The first verse references the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963 and questions whether the CIA was involved. The next year mentioned is 1992, and the lyrics mention how scandals and rumors are constantly circulating, such as the rumors that Elvis Presley did not really die and that Hitler was found in Borneo. The chorus declares that everything is a deception, even the eyes of the iconic Marilyn Monroe.
The second verse focuses on the time of the Velvet Revolution in Prague in 1989, where the lyrics question who was deemed "in" or "out" of the new regime and why, highlighting the often arbitrary nature of political shifts. The lyrics then reference being small fish in a big pond and the concept that the only thing one truly has control over is one's thoughts and relationship with loved ones.
Overall, the lyrics seem to be questioning the official narratives presented by powerful institutions and the media and instead suggesting a sense of skepticism and critical thinking about what is being presented as "truth."
