A týždeň má vždy sedem dní
Tento deň je zvyšný náboj
Len pre zúfalých posledných
Bola by sa škoda strielať
Kým nedošli sme po refrén
Ten kto vie, jak to znie, je zachránený
Malý anjel na fontáne
Vám ciká na tie dejiny
Je mu jedno kto mu vládne
On cikal už na iných
Bola by sa škoda strielať
Kým nedošli sme po refrén
Ten kto vie, jak to znie, je zachránený
Len tá muzika za niečo stojí a nevzdychá
A stále môže krásne znieť aj bez gýčov a hviezd
Len tá muzika za niečo stojí a nevzdychá
A stále môže krásne znieť jak posledný krát
Revolver mám presne šesť dní
A týždeň má vždy sedem rán
A každé ráno púšťam správy
A som na ten revolver sám
Bola by sa škoda strielať
Kým nedošli sme po refrén
Ten kto vie, jak to znie, je zachránený
Len tá muzika za niečo stojí a nevzdychá
A stále môže krásne znieť aj bez gýčov a hviezd
Len tá muzika za niečo stojí a nevzdychá
A stále môže krásne znieť jak posledný krát
Len tá muzika za niečo stojí a nevzdychá
A stále môže krásne znieť aj bez gýčov a hviezd
Len tá muzika za niečo stojí a nevzdychá
A stále môže krásne znieť jak posledný krát
Revolver má presne šesť rán
A týždeň sedem ostrých dní
The song "Revolver a Muzika" by Peter Nagy talks about the power of music to bring people together and to overcome difficult situations. The first verse compares the six shots of a revolver to the seven days of the week, leaving one day with a remaining bullet. This day is meant for those who are desperate and lost. The following lines advise not to shoot until we reach the chorus, which offers hope and salvation for those who recognize the sound of the music.
The second verse mentions a little angel on a fountain who doesn't care about who's in power because he's already seen others come and go. The message is that people shouldn't get too caught up in the politics of the world, but should focus on the power of music to uplift them from the chaos of life. In the bridge, the singer declares that music stands for something and doesn't need fancy gimmicks, it can still be beautiful even when its time is running out.
The song concludes with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing that music can still be meaningful when all else fails. The combination of the metaphorical revolver representing desperation, with the angel representing hope, and the power of music being the unifying factor creates a poignant and thought-provoking message for listeners.

Revolver má presne šesť rán
The revolver has exactly six bullets
A týždeň má vždy sedem dní
A week always has seven days
Tento deň je zvyšný náboj
This day is the remaining bullet
Len pre zúfalých posledných
Only for desperate ones
Bola by sa škoda strielať
It would be a waste to shoot
Kým nedošli sme po refrén
Until we reach the chorus
Ten kto vie, jak to znie, je zachránený
Whoever knows how it sounds, is saved
Malý anjel na fontáne
Small angel on a fountain
Vám ciká na tie dejiny
He mocks at the history for you
Je mu jedno kto mu vládne
It doesn't matter to him who rules him
On cikal už na iných
He has mocked at others already
Len tá muzika za niečo stojí a nevzdychá
Only that music is worth something and does not sigh
A stále môže krásne znieť aj bez gýčov a hviezd
And it can still sound beautiful without kitsch and stars
Revolver mám presne šesť dní
I have the revolver for exactly six days
A týždeň má vždy sedem rán
A week always has seven mornings
A každé ráno púšťam správy
And every morning I play the news
A som na ten revolver sám
And I am alone with that revolver
A stále môže krásne znieť jak posledný krát
And it can still sound beautiful like the last time
Revolver má presne šesť rán
The revolver has exactly six bullets
A týždeň sedem ostrých dní
A week has seven sharp days

ked pocuvam tie stare veci, co sa dodnes hraju v radiach, vzdy ma nadchnu jeho texty. Vecne, trefne, vystizne, zamyslenia vhodne. Proste on vie robit hudbu, vie, o com to je.
