An 8-piece Czech band from Úvaly near Prague, formed in 1996. DB is both hated and loved by many because of its simple but sometimes quite catchy lyrics and music where we can hear many instruments, but is not too complex in the first place.
It is hard to define what genre Divokej Bill is. Sometimes its music is defined as folk rock, celtic rock, country and so on; members think it might be "redneck rock" as they are from a small town and are influenced by it.
DB has attended a lot of festivals in last few years like its home Ouvalskej bigbít, Rock for People or Masters of Rock. DB also does a lot of its own gigs nationwide.
Divokej Bill is closely related to Medvěd 009 because they are both from Úvaly, and Vašek Bláha is a singer and guitarist in both bands.

jak je to eště daleko k šibenici?
Jak je to eště daleko,
jak je to eště daleko k márnici?
Jak je to eště daleko,
jak je to eště daleko, kdo to ví?
Kam tahle cesta mě dovede,
tahle cesta mě dovede,
Jak je to eště daleko,
jak je to eště daleko k šibenici?
Jak je to eště daleko,
jak je to eště daleko k márnici?
Jak je to eště daleko,
jak je to eště daleko, kdo to ví?
Kam tahle cesta mě dovede,
tahle cesta mě dovede,
tahle cesta mě dovede?
Jak je to eště daleko,
eště daleko
ke katovi? Ke katovi!
...to moc bolelo,
to moc bolelo, trápilo,
pak kolo u vozu,
kolo u vozu se točilo jó!
Skončilo všechno co mě kdy bolelo,
všechno co mě kdy bolelo,
všechno co mě kdy bolelo. Jó!
Všechno co mě kdy bolelo,
kdy bolelo,
skončilo.
Skončilo
všechno co mě kdy bolelo,
kdy bolelo,
skončilo.
Skončilo na zemi,
na týhletý trase zase zdá se má se stát,
něco zlýho stát se mi.
...eště daleko k šibenici?
Jak je to eště daleko,
jak je to eště daleko k márnici?
Jak je to eště daleko,
jak je to eště daleko, kdo to ví?
Kam tahle cesta mě dovede,
tahle cesta mě dovede,
tahle cesta mě dovede? Jó!
Jak je to eště daleko,
eště daleko
ke katovi? Ke katovi!
A všechno co mě kdy bolelo,
kdy bolelo,
skončilo.
Skončilo na Zemi.
Na týhletý trase zase zdá se má se stát,
něco zlýho stát se mi.
A něco zlýho stát, stát se mi.
A něco zlýho stát, stát se mi.
A něco zlýho stát, stát se mi.
...zlýho zlýho stát,
stát se mi na zemi.
Na týhletý trase zase zdá se má se stát,
něco zlýho stát se mi.
The song "Šibenice" by Divokej Bill is a somber reflection on the inevitability of death and the uncertainty of the journey leading up to it. The singer wonders how far away the gallows and the mortuary are, contemplating the direction that his life is taking and where it will ultimately end up. The repetition of the questions "Jak je to eště daleko" emphasizes the ambiguity of his situation, as he tries to grasp at some sense of control or understanding. The lyrics also delve into feelings of pain, suffering, and fear surrounding death, as the singer imagines the agony of the execution and the isolation of the grave. However, there is also a sense of acceptance and release as the song concludes, as the singer realizes that all the pain he has experienced in his life is finally over.
Overall, "Šibenice" conveys a powerful and poignant message about the inevitability of mortality, and the importance of living a life that is true to oneself, even in the face of uncertainty.
