The "core" band consists of Gorazd "Goga" Sedmak (vocals, guitar), Žare Pavletič (bass guitar) and Aleš Koščak (drums, percussions) but they also have supporting team which are: Aleksandra Čermelj (vocal, violine), Eva Brajkovič (vocal) and Anuša Podgornik (synth, vocal, flute). They are known for funny and crazy songs and that despite this, the lyrics have a lot of deep metaphorical meaning. Their first creation was the EP "Streloowod + Brrr... + Čau sonček" with the song Čau Slonček that awakened the attention of the public. Their first big hit was Yo! from "Kdo se je zbral?" and from there on they became a favourite among rockers all over Slovenia (especially in the region from where they are), but they became known to larger, mainstream Slovenian public in 1999 with the song Bit from their "Dej, nosorog, pazi kam stopaš!" album. Many regard them as one of the best and most original rock bands in Slovenia, and the album "Čiko, Pajo in Pako" has achieved almost cult status among the youth because of it's melodical roughness, originality and lyrical content.

sežgimo cel svet če že moram umret če že moram umret naj zgori še vse ostalo
saj se bo še naprej vrtel pač ne bo tako moder kot prej ker ga bo prekril črn plevel
in če bi reaktivci delali osemke po nebu bi vesoljni možgani mislili da je krogla
od biljarda in bi hitro končali v tisti črni luknji v katero je padu zadnji barvast planet
sežgimo cel svet zakaj bi se delali zakaj naj bi šlo mimo kot da se ni nič zgodilo
pomisli kakšna škoda nič več velikih ljudskih pridobitev v kali zatrte
blazno dobre ideje nič več hitrih avtov bleščečih oblekic dišečih parfumov
takšnih da se je psom iz nosa ulila kri če so hotli povohat kaj tako lepo

sežgimo cel svet če že moram umret če že moram umret naj zgori še vse ostalo

Overall Meaning

The song "Konec" by Zmelkoow talks about the end of the world and the singer's desire to burn the whole world down with them when they die. The lyrics show a sense of disillusionment with the world and a desire to rid it of all the things that bring people down. The singer believes that if they have to die, they might as well take everything down with them, rather than let it continue to exist without them.

The first verse talks about how the singer wants the world to burn and for everything else to go down with them. They see the world as being filled with "black weeds" and want to destroy it all. The second verse talks about how the singer doesn't want the world to just continue on without them, as if nothing happened. They want everything to be destroyed and to be done with it all. The final verse talks about all of the things that will be lost if the world is destroyed, from great ideas to beautiful models. In the end, however, the singer still sees the destruction of the world as the only way forward.

Line by Line Meaning

sežgimo cel svet če že moram umret če že moram umret naj zgori še vse ostalo
Let's burn the entire world if I have to die anyway. If I have to die, let everything else burn too.

saj se bo še naprej vrtel pač ne bo tako moder kot prej ker ga bo prekril črn plevel
Of course, the world will keep spinning, but it won't be as colorful as before because it will be covered in black weed.

in če bi reaktivci delali osemke po nebu bi vesoljni možgani mislili da je krogla od biljarda
If the jets made figure-eights in the sky, the universal brains would think it was a billiard ball.

od biljarda in bi hitro končali v tisti črni luknji v katero je padu zadnji barvast planet
Then, they would speedily end up in the black hole where the last colorful planet had fallen.

sežgimo cel svet zakaj bi se delali zakaj naj bi šlo mimo kot da se ni nič zgodilo
Let's burn the whole world; why act like nothing happened? Why should we let it pass like nothing has transpired?

pomisli kakšna škoda nič več velikih ljudskih pridobitev v kali zatrte
Think of what a waste it would be. No more great achievements of humanity held back in their infancy.

blazno dobre ideje nič več hitrih avtov bleščečih oblekic dišečih parfumov
No more incredibly excellent ideas, no more fast cars, shiny clothes, or fragrant perfumes.

takšnih da se je psom iz nosa ulila kri če so hotli povohat kaj tako lepo
Ones so delightful that dogs' noses bled with excitement when they tried to sniff them.

diši nič več nagradnih iger v praških in najlepše manekenke ki se tudi ko bruha smeji
No more fragrant sweepstakes in magazines and no more beautiful models who can still laugh while vomiting.

sežgimo cel svet če že moram umret če že moram umret naj zgori še vse ostalo
Let's burn the entire world if I have to die anyway. If I have to die, let everything else burn too.
