Brain Holidays Lyrics
Crvena, žuta i zelena
Crvena, žuta i zelena,
sanjam ljeto, u Afričkim bojama.
Crvena, žuta i zelena,
sanjam ljeto.
Zrak, miriše meso,
kada Dub postaje dan,
ljuljamo se u ritmu valova,
dok sunce nam ljubi vrat.
Sanjam ljeto, smijeh i sunčani dan,
tamo me fura ova reggae muzika.
Crvena, žuta i zelena,
sanjam ljeto, u Afričkim bojama.
U Afričkim bojama
Sa šeširom na glavi,
i tamnim cvikama,
na pjesku vručem od palmama,
gledam kako sunce pada,
sve probleme zaboravljam,
sve probleme zaboravljam,
sve probleme zaboravljam.
Ljeto, smijeh i sunčani dan,
tamo me fura ova reggae muzika.
Sanjam ljeto, smijeh i sunčani dan,
tamo me fura ova reggae muzika.
Crvena, žuta i zelena,
sanjam ljeto, u Afričkim bojama.
U afričkim bojama,
u afričkim bojama.
Crvena, žuta i zelena,
sanjam ljeto, u Afričkim bojama.
Crvena, žuta i zelena,
sanjam ljeto.
Zrak, miriše meso,
kada Dub postaje dan,
ljuljamo se u ritmu valova,
dok sunce nam ljubi vrat.
Sanjam ljeto, smijeh i sunčani dan,
tamo me fura ova reggae muzika.
Crvena, žuta i zelena,
sanjam ljeto, u Afričkim bojama.
U Afričkim bojama
Sa šeširom na glavi,
i tamnim cvikama,
na pjesku vručem od palmama,
gledam kako sunce pada,
sve probleme zaboravljam,
sve probleme zaboravljam,
sve probleme zaboravljam.
Ljeto, smijeh i sunčani dan,
tamo me fura ova reggae muzika.
Sanjam ljeto, smijeh i sunčani dan,
tamo me fura ova reggae muzika.
Crvena, žuta i zelena,
sanjam ljeto, u Afričkim bojama.
U afričkim bojama,
u afričkim bojama.
