Törr Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Do zubů klacek si honem dám
Než se tu složím a začnu blejt
Trochu si skočím a udělam brejk
Na držce z koutku mi visí slina
Jen bělma svítí a stříká pěna
Třesu se v rytmu samby a blues
Nečekej zázrak a taky to zkus
Skáču jak magor, protože musím
Život je krásnej a tak to zkusím
Chci bejt víc se mnou a tak nebejt sám
Vidím svět rudě a nepoznávám
Bůh chrání krále a někoho z vás
Já tančím s ďáblem a přežiju snáz
Na držce z koutku mi visí slina
Jen bělma svítí a je mi zima
Třesu se v rytmu jazzu a blues
Nečekej na nic, rychle to zkus
