abrakadabra
On bi da se ganja poput Petra Pana
s kapetanom Kukom nasred oceana
il' da skita svijetom kao segrt Hlapic
al' za sve mu treba zacarani stapic
On bi kao Popaj htio zvakat' spinat
il' k'o Miki Maus tjerat' stalno inat
i da bude Palcic sitan kao grasak
al' za sve mu treba zacarani prasak
Ref.
Abraka, abraka, abrakadabra
abraka, abraka, abrakadabra
magicne rijeci, carobni znaci
jezde kroz mastu djec'ji junaci
Abraka, abraka, abrakadabra
Abraka, abraka, abrakadabra
magicne rijeci, carobni znaci
miruju samo skolski zadaci
On bi kao mnogi vitezovi slavni
zmajeve pretuk'o bio uvijek glavni
i princezi svojoj sluzio do groba
al' za sve mu treba zacarano doba
On bi da je velik poput Velog Joze
i da kao Tarzan dzunglom skakat' moze
i da dijeli pravdu poput Robin Huda
al' za sve mu to treba ona zemlja cuda
Ref.
On bi da je bradat poput Robinzona
il' da plovi poput Piplfoksa Dzona
Guliver da bude Mali princ iz snova
al' za sve mu treba zacaranih slova
On bi da je slavni Dejvi Kroket licno
Pinokio Kekec ili tome slicno
i da masta poput Haklberi Fina
al' za sve mu treba prica iz davnina
Ref. 2x
