Imam malu sansu
koristicu svaku
necu da ko slepac
tumaram po mraku

Pare, k'o sto znamo
su papiri samo
zato nije lose
da se pare trose

Vreme tece, sve se menja
ne ostaje nista trajno
za buduca pokolenja
sve postaje beznacajno

Ref.
Zivim ovaj zivot, ne znam sta cu s' njim
sve je ionako pickin dim
ne kajem se, ne zalim za bilo cim
sve je ionako pickin dim

Spreman sam da odem
kada kucne cas
a dotle do daske
dajem gas

Dodeljeno vreme
kada potrosim
i sam cu da postanem
pickin dim

Nije vazno dal' sam
u krivu il' pravu
ako gadjam, ciljam
direktno u glavu

Pametan budali
ne treba da popusta
prava se prilika
nikada ne propusta

Vreme tece, sve se menja
ne ostaje nista trajno
za buduca pokolenja
sve postaje beznacajno

Ref.
