Lutka za bal

Parni valjak · Other Songs - Parni valjak

Sreo sam je prvi put u Stopoteci

gore u Ljubljani dok trajao je Bum festival

bacila je ruke oko moga vrata i rekla:

Aki, zar nismo dobar par?

Ajde mala doÄ‘i u moju sobu

imat čemo privatan bal,

šteta bi bila da propadne stvar,

kad kažeš da smo tako dobar par.

Stoj, što ti misliš o meni,

da sam ja mačka samo za jednu noč?

Ne, al, ja sam samo još danas ovdje,

i tko zna kada, opet, moči ču doč.
