The act's beginnings can be traced to 1997, when founding member Zenon Kutapasa (then known as Zenon Danon) assembled two of his cronies in his bedroom and recorded the three of them yelling hastily written lyrics over instrumental backgrounds thrown together from various tapes (including the works of Nirvana, Silverchair etc). Two additional "albums" in this style were created up to 2001, each improving on the predecessor's audio processing quality and performance.

At this point, a proper band line-up was assembled, leading to the act's first proper concert (September 2nd 2001). Eventually, Kabanos decided to try their hand at making their own material, and the debut single "Za X" was recorded in 2002. A few member changes later, a proper full-length "Zęby w ścianę" saw the light of day in 2007. "Flaki z olejem" followed in 2009, and the group's most recent full-length of original material is "Kiełbie we łbie" from 2012. Kabanos is evolving from release to release, letting their growing musical abilities shine and gradually replacing the off-the-wall ramblings of their earlier materials with easily discernible, more mature themes.

Biedny miś, biedula miś
Biedny to miś
Biednowiętomięgi

Stasio lubi misia
Misio Stasia też
Stasio trzyma misia
Misio jego jest

Madzia lubi misia
Misio Madzię też
Stasio trzyma misia
Misio jeden jest

Zuzia lalka nie duża
I na dodatek cała ze szmatek

Overall Meaning

The song "Biedny miś" by Kabanos tells the story of a poor little teddy bear, who is loved by two children named Stasio and Madzia. The lyrics describe the bear as being very poor and soft, with Stasio holding onto the bear as his possession while Madzia also loves the bear. The third verse introduces a new character, a girl named Zuzia who owns a small rag doll.

The lyrics, while simple and playful, bring to light the theme of possession and ownership, as Stasio wants the teddy bear to be his and Madzia also holds affections towards the bear. The introduction of Zuzia with her small, ragged doll shows a stark contrast to the bear that Stasio and Madzia both call "theirs." The song brings attention to materialism and how objects can hold sentimental value and become objects of desire.
