SAFARI
Polemic Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

pani v autobuse
vyvoláva úsmev
nenápadne číta
cez plece noviny
slečny pred maturou
s hlavou plnou žúrov
skáču si do reči
a to im nesvedčí

Ref:
safari, pekne zblízka naživo
načo lietať do kene a míňať palivo
safari, pekne zblízka naživo
nechytajte zvery a nehádžte im krmivo

fedor nehrá dnes fér
presne typ solitér
škoda, že zabudol
na rande so sprchou
dáma nahodená
o láske vie veľa
objekty svojich snov
loví bez problémov

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Polemic's song Safari describe observations of the world around them, particularly the people and their behavior. The first verse describes a woman reading newspapers discreetly in a bus, eliciting a smile from others. Meanwhile, girls who are preparing for their final exams are talkative and excited, which some find off-putting. These observations are followed by a chorus that extols the virtues of being up close and personal with nature, advocating for experiencing the beauty of nature instead of flying abroad and needlessly expending resources. The second verse talks about a man named Fedor who is narcissistic, perhaps even sociopathic, and insensitive. He forgets about a date and is selfishly focused on his own goals, particularly his predilection for hunting down his dream woman.


Overall, the song seems to be a critique of societal trends and values, particularly those that prioritize self-indulgence and the pursuit of wealth and status over enjoying and preserving the natural world. The band's choice to use animal imagery and metaphors in their lyrics might suggest that they view human behavior as animalistic, as they criticize the urge to conquer and possess things, including people.
