Pidżama Porno disbanded in 1990, but reactivated 4 years later. The demo album "Futurista" was officialy released under the same name, but it also contained six songs from "Ulice jak stygmaty". In 1997 "Złodzieje zapalniczek" was released, "Styropian" followed in 1998. Then, the "Ulice jak stygmaty" demo album was recorded again, and released as "Ulice jak stygmaty - absolutne rarytasy". The next album, "Marchef w butonierce", arguably their most popular one, saw the light in 2001.
As for now, their newest album is "Bułgarskie Centrum", which appeared in 2004. It is slightly different from the former releases, but is still widely appreciated among fans.
Currently, the band consist of the following artists:
Krzysztof "Grabaż" Grabowski - vocals, lyrics, composition
Andrzej Kozakiewicz - vocals, guitar
Sławek Mizerkiewicz - guitar
Julian Piotrowiak - bass guitar
Rafał Piotrowiak - percussion
Some members of the band also form Grabaż i Strachy na Lachy.
The band officially disbanded after their 20-th anniversary concert, which was held in Poznań on 8th December 2007.

Pidżama Porno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Obce twarze wirują przed tobą
Nikt się na nich nie patrzy
Oni nie widzą nikogo
Kurwy i faszyści są w niebie
Wszelkie zło się przez zło zbawiło
Pozostałych osądził sąd
Którego naprawdę nie było
Sto noży wbili mu w plecy
On podał ręce mordercy
Czymś musiał narazić się innym
Czy tylko tym, że był niewinny
Ludzie z pierwszych stron gazet
Pozostałych już osądzili
Chce oczy zamknąć i kraść
I grabić, grabić, grabić
To co nam zagrabili
Kim jest Józef K.?
Józef K. prawdziwy?
Oto Józef K.
I już go gryzą ryby
Najprawdziwszy z prawdziwych
Prawdziwych
(refren by Czoper)
Nie wydłubiesz im oczu
Nie wybijesz im zębów
Co ci tylko zostało - twój strach
Strach
The lyrics of the song "Józef K." by Pidżama Porno featuring Marcin Świetlicki are a poignant commentary on the power structures and hypocritical nature of society. The first verse describes the prominent figures and celebrities portrayed in newspapers, who are surrounded by unfamiliar faces, but no one pays attention to them. The next lines suggest that the heavens are populated by corrupt people, who were saved by evil acts. Meanwhile, the rest have been judged by a court that never existed.
The second part of the song describes the fate of Józef K., who was stabbed in the back and gave up to his killer. The last two lines of the verse question whether he was a victim because he was innocent or because he offended someone. The chorus, sung by Czoper, talks about how fear is the only thing left when you cannot take revenge against the oppressors who have taken everything from you.
The song implies that justice and truth have been manipulated to serve the powerful, and the innocent suffer for no reason. The lyrics are thought-provoking and challenging, reminding us of the need to question and hold accountable those with authority and influence.

People on the front pages of newspapers
Obce twarze wirują przed tobą
Foreign faces are swirling in front of you
Nikt się na nich nie patrzy
No one is looking at them
Oni nie widzą nikogo
They don't see anyone
Kurwy i faszyści są w niebie
Whores and fascists are in heaven
Wszelkie zło się przez zło zbawiło
All evil saved themselves through evil
Pozostałych osądził sąd
The remaining ones were judged by a court
Którego naprawdę nie było
Which really did not exist
Sto noży wbili mu w plecy
One hundred knives were stabbed in his back
On podał ręce mordercy
He gave his hands to the murderer
Czymś musiał narazić się innym
He had to expose himself to others
Czy tylko tym, że był niewinny
Or just because he was innocent
Pozostałych już osądzili
The rest have already been judged
Chce oczy zamknąć i kraść
He wants to close his eyes and steal
I grabić, grabić, grabić
And grab, grab, grab
To co nam zagrabili
What they grabbed from us
Kim jest Józef K.?
Who is Joseph K.?
Józef K. prawdziwy?
Is Joseph K. real?
Oto Józef K.
Here is Joseph K.
I już go gryzą ryby
And fish are already biting him
Najprawdziwszy z prawdziwych
The truest of the truest
Nie wydłubiesz im oczu
You won't gouge their eyes out
Nie wybijesz im zębów
You won't knock their teeth out
Co ci tylko zostało - twój strach
What you're left with is your fear
Strach
(Fear) - refrain by Czoper
