Wczoraj kupiłem spodnie w GS ie
Po przyjściu do domu od razu w nie wskoczyłem
Ludzie dziwnie się na mnie patrzyli
Czuję że oni mi zazdrościli bo

Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja
Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala
Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja

Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala

Spodnie na mnie pasują jak ulał
Super w ogóle wiecie mam gust
Zaraz schowam je do szuflady
Żeby w niedzielę znowu w nich pójść ale

Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja
Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala
Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja
Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala

Dżinsy i sztruksy to nie mój styl
Kolor fioletu wciąż mi się śni
Zimno na dworze w domu moim cisza
Puchar świata w ręku Małysza ale

Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja
Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala
Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja
Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala

Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja
Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala
Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja
Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala

Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja
Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala

Nikt na świecie nie ma takich spodni jak ja
Całe fioletowe szerokie lalala
