Dovidjena, na vlaskom drumu

Dovidjenja, na vlaskom drumu
u devet izjutra
ja otvaram konzervu
cinim to ima godinu dana

I nema razloga
da uskratim podrsku gladnom zelucu
i ovoj dugoj praznoj cesti
koju valjaju cijeli sat

A kad se riba jede
onda zednim nenormalno
i obicno trijeznim boce
sto ih moja stara sprema

I obicno nastojim
da limenci dadem formu
i da je uvaljam uz put

Ali bestija se nije dala
i sto sam mog'o
i tako mor'o sam na drum

Podbocio sam kantu
lijevom nogom da ne bjezi
i tako ost'o sam uz put
