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.

Tomek Mazur
Wczoraj w szkole
Za warkoczyk pociągnął Olę
Rozokocz z niego jest nie lada
Mówi brzydko

Tomek Mazur
Wczoraj w klasie

Za spódniczkę pociągnął Kasię
Urwis z niego jest nie lada
Mówi brzydko

Mówi brzydko
Mówi bardzo nie ładnie
Bardzo brzydko mówi
Och tak

My żeśmy posłuchali wujka
Który dobrą radę dał
Gdy Tomek zaczął znów przeklinać
Nikt uwagi mu nie zwracał

Lecz Tomek wciąż tak mówił brzydko
Więc olaliśmy go
Daliśmy mu do zrozumienia
Że nie lubimy go

Spalylyśmy mu piórnik
Stach dał mu fangę w nos
Włożyliśmy łeb jego
Do kibla i spuściliśmy wodę

Niech każdy zapamięta

Że nie może już nie
Mówić brzydko kiedy chce...

Overall Meaning

The song "Motyla Noga" by Kabanos tells the story of Tomek Mazur, a mischievous young boy who bullies his classmates. The first two verses describe two instances where Tomek pulled on the pigtails of Ola and the skirt of Kasia. The chorus repeats the phrase "Mówi brzydko" (He speaks rudely) and emphasizes that he needs to stop speaking in a disrespectful manner.

The third verse introduces an adult figure - "wujek" - who gives advice on how to handle Tomek's behavior. However, despite attempts to ignore him and give him hints, Tomek continues to use unpleasant language. The song then takes a dark turn with the lyrics describing how the classmates retaliate against Tomek, by destroying his belongings and even flushing his head down the toilet. The final lines of the song warn that Tomek's fate should serve as a lesson - one should not speak rudely whenever they please.

"Motyla Noga" is a cautionary tale about the consequences of bullying and the importance of speaking to others with respect. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of both the bullying behavior and the violent retaliation, leaving the listener to imagine the severity of the actions. Ultimately, the song highlights the fact that no one deserves to be bullied, regardless of how they speak or act.
