442 Do Beograda

Bajaga · Ruža Vetrova Beograda

Ja imam krvotok od benzina
pred mojim ocima ravan put
ovo je zestoka masina
nebo mastilo mesec zut

Nisam blesav da brojim zvezde
brojim znake i linije
psi laju na karavane
a karavani prolaze

Kao tanak snar susti prasina
442 do Beograda
gume skripe bluz kilometara
442 do Beograda
442 do Beograda
