Rambo Amadeus · Other Songs - Rambo Amadeus

Da se pitam ja bih
betonir'o travu
i ofarb'o tamno braon
svaku vodu plavu

Nekako bih probusio
tanki sloj ozona
a Zemlju bih zastitio
kesom od najlona

Ref.
Beton, beton, samo beton
beton nama treba
jer iz trave nonsalantno
ljuta zmija vreba

Da se pitam ja bih
osjek'o sve sume
a za ukras postavio
od traktora gume

Kiselinom ja bih
zemlju navodnjav'o
a djecu bi' svakog dana
rentgenom slikav'o

Ref.
Beton beton samo beton
beton djeci treba
jer iz trave nonsalantno
alergija vreba

Da se pitam ja bih
na sred grada kazan
svako bi mi jeo, zna se
rucak jednobrazan

Praznikom bih instalir'o
oko glave lovor
i narodu odrzao
slijedeci govor

Ref.

The track remains a testament to his enduring influence on regional music, showcasing a style that is both immediately accessible and richly layered with cultural references. It serves as an essential song point for listeners exploring his extensive body of work.
