Free press

Ten journalists are getting rich because of me:
they edit ten newspapers and I buy and read
One of them got stuck in an article with too many deads and terrorists
so, from the very start, they're only nine journalists
 
Nine journalists, none of them is giving up
they're stealing from my working time, they're stealing my lunch hour
One of them, taken by the wave, is punching hard the communists
So, until realizing what's all, they're only eight journalists
 
Eight eager journalists are continuing it in their way:
They even want a little piece of my bedroom time
Beautiful nude women are spreading whisper through the pages
But they're so badly printed so the journalists remain only seven
 
Seven journalists are joking, no one gives a break
And they're keeping it in a joke and a laughter for about a week
Until one of them's joking about the girl of someone that's buying terrains and houses...
Seven journalists were, now they're six.
 
Six journalists are starting to make investigations
at the cornershop, at the customs office, at the girls hostel
Some are discovering that at the mayor's office they give houses only to (former security) colonels...
Four journalists are saying: 'Weren't we six? Where are two of them?'
 
Four journalists bend their elbows, they definitely want me

Please, don't be afraid!

To make a whole world it's very complicated
that's why even God gave up in the end
Became irritable, tired and capricious
Some things didn't work anymore, some others were totally wrong
Some say that close to the end
He simply swore!!...
Please, don't get scared!
Please, don't get scared!
 
The week, for example, was fundamentally wrong
He made it consist of seven days, which is totally insufficient!
You go to work in the afternoon, in the morning you go to highschool
And sunday, when you want and you can, it happens that I can't
I even told him some words
roundly
but He seem to not hear...
Please, don't get scared!
Please, don't get scared!
 
When He created you,
I don't know what He thought:
Gave you two extra canines
and totally forgot about a molar
Made you stay far from me
so we cannot meet too often
Dressed you up in union suit
and unintelligible phrases
 
Her hair, in exchange, got perfectly, really sensational
Changing her colour daily from black to light blond
Lips are quite beautiful, no problem with her eyes
but He even created a guard dog so I won't steal you!
 
Without this dog
and with a little luck
many things could happen!...
Please, don't get scared!
Please, don't get scared!
 
The word 'maybe' is essential in your vocabulary
maybe it's good, maybe it exists,
maybe it's bad...
In any case, don't try to lie to me
Don't try to fool me
When you're half ready
You're half-living
 
You came to me, you wrote me poems
you invented love-via-mail for the next day
You come on every night, always in my dreams
you lend your hand and eyes for my heart and soul.
 
But you don't know that another girl, just before you,
came as thirsty as you, and I made a mistake to give her a drink:
Drank my soul in one second, my heart didn't matter,
wiped her lips with a napkin, thanked me and left
So, firstly, put
your heart in my chest
Please, don't get scared!
Please, don't
get scared!
 

The Impossible Geography

Faraway lands, sober and shocking
Lands without homes, without ladybugs
Lands with sticker-like visas
are stealing you today with a smile...
 
Lands with suspectfully precise surveys
Lands absurdly expensive for my money
Lands with tax-system for dreams
are taking you away from me, and you go and want...
 
Lands with phones that are not getting broken
They're calling you at midnight so you hurry
Lands of aluminum that I'm afraid of
are letting me without you and you don't even wink...
 
Lands cut in half by abstract lines
Lands with kilometers of grass and highways
Lands with wardrobes full of contracts
want to take you from here, not another...
 
I'm gonna give you my adress, I'm gonna wait for your letter
The envelope is gonna have a funny stamp
You'd be there, I'm gonna be at the seaside
How can it be ok when everything's upside down?!
 

Every day starts badly

Every day starts badly
If you don't have a shelter,
Every day is one step towards the night ...
 
Every night is passing hard
If you're always alone,
Every night is a one night stand ...
 
When the sun goes down
Everything is good,
When he rises
Nothing seems to have changed!
 
Every day starts like this,
It's a hard night at the end,
Every day is one step towards you ...
 
If ... if anyone had told me, a few years ago,
That I'm gonna end up singing in the studio, singing in concerts,
Let the world come to see me ... I would have died laughing.
 

Please

It's midnight again, the concert is over
the streets have no sense in this badly-lightened city
Look, I wasn't careful and I stumbled again...
It's such a silence, dear, what it would be if I'd ask you
to not leave me alone again?
to not leave me alone again?
 
Long forgotten nights anre coming to me
they wanna sit and chat with me,
they dressed up fine and I want to listen to them, but
I got a long way to walk home
It's such a silence, dear, what it would be if I'd ask you
to not leave me alone again?
to not leave me alone again?
 
In the evening, at the hotel,
he came too,
You're not gonna take any word from me
If you want to, you can stay
I'm gonna bring you some tea
God, turn me into a swallow
and may my birthday come!...
 
Your sister is lying to me, your phone is not working and I can't write you
I'm allowed to know what you're saying about you and nothing more!
But why do you have parents that think that any hour after 10 is too late?
 
It's such a silence, dear, what it would be if I'd ask you
to not leave me alone again?
to not leave me alone again?
to not leave me alone again, please!....
 

It's Joanne's fault!

I was down
I was on the floor
In that kind of moment,
she came.
She smiled to me
I smiled to her too
Gave her my soul,
she crushed it,
threw it down... (threw it down)
threw it down... (threw it down)
I ask you: something like that, to whom was useful?
 
I took it
wanted to repair it
repairman told me:
'you're struggling in vain!
Look at me,
I got white hair in my moustach:
Your soul is torn in pieces,
Better let it down (Better let it down)
Better let it down (Better let it down)
I ask you: such pieces, to whom would be useful?'
 
I asked him nicely:
'Don't let me this way
It's impossible
that something won't work out!'
He told me: 'There is,
but it's very painful,
and I don't even know if it's worthy,
better sit like that (better let it like that)
better sit like that (better let it like that)
and instead of soul, I'm gonna give you
a piece of tin!'
 

Canine blues

My neighbour has 100 dogs
he buys for them 50 breads
buys them meat, buys them milk
gives them caviar from 7 to 7
My neighbour has 100 dogs
 
My neighbour has 100 dogs
Don't know how he can handle with just two hands
he has in his house a thicket and a bush
takes them for a walk on the roof
My neighbour has 100 dogs
 
My neighbour stays at home with them
has seven that are pacient and other 93 more
if you ring at the door, he hides 80
and you see only 20
but he really has 100 dogs
 
My neighbour has 100 dogs
recites them poems when he washes his hands
People say that he spits and bies
and he would rather be fit in a doghouse
together with his 100 dogs.
 

Public transport

Women are like buses
that we wait for
We sit in at the bus stop for years
that's why we smoke...
 
And when they appear, they never appear
but from three above...
And if you move to slow, my friend,
it's too late, because they're gone
 
How to guess so, all at once,
Where can you get there?
What if you do not like the route?
What If they have too long stops?
Bus-women know well,
That's why they hold the cracked door:
You gotta get on quickly ...
How the hell you won't do it?
 
And if some way, something doesn't suit you
and you want to get back on the highway
Once: you do it
Twice: Nobody would take you anymore
So give it up
You can't forfeit the game
Women are buses
but without them, we just wait in vain...
Women are buses
but without them, we just wait in vain...
Women are buses
but without them, we just wait in vain...
Women are buses
but without them, we just wait in vain...
Women are buses
but without them, we just wait in vain...
 

Your eyes

And the light got ready
gathered all the clouds and hung them
far in the horizon,
on the wire
to dry slowly...
 
Last evening was warm and so
all the stars have glasses of wine
and gave me to taste a little
to me
Meanwhile, you were sleeping...
 
Tell me about you
fewer things
let me guess them
invent them,
suit them
Uuuuu...
 
If you believe that only in miracles
to see you three days, to not see you three months
and take it again and again
from the start
tell me how would it appear to be?
 
I always want you
in my corner
to be with me
and to feel good.
Uuuu...
 
I met a beaufiful girl
she has a car and has a home
and we talk on the phone
a lot....
 
But she doesn't have your eyes...
But she doesn't have your eyes...
But she doesn't have your eyes...
But she doesn't have your eyes...
But she doesn't have your eyes...
 

The militians

I'd like so much
if I only can
to cross the street so close
to the stripes
and don't catch me.
 
Man, you know
that it'll be this way
as you say...
I'd stop you
with a whistle
you'd be fined!
 
The militians, the militians
keep the order.
The militians, the militians
take care of our silence. - One more time!
 
The militians, the militians
keep the order.
take care of our steps
and shelter us.
 

I saw a man

I saw a man
standing there
watching the street,
he had a lot of time...
Around him, the town
went to evening
with cars going
slower and slower.
 
At a moment,
I've formed a phone number
In front of me, a cloud
was wandering around.
A voice spoke to me
didn't get a word
Whose was the voice?
Whose was the number?
 
The houses around here
don't know my story
the sun is setting
as if painted on the curtain.
Big advertisments
bite from the night.
So far are all
from my world...
 

The spring wind

Open the window so that I can get inside,
Open the window so that I can get inside,
I'm the spring wind!
I'm the spring wind!
We won't open because we haven't got any window!
We won't open because we haven't got any window!
Buy yourselves a window!
Buy yourselves a window!
Where can we buy a window?
Where can we buy a window?
It's your problem!
It's your problem!
It's your problem!

Sunday morning to lunch

All my friends have gone,
left me all alone in town
in the morning, I wake up when I want!
 
I grab a book and start to read,
I don't get up, just sit and idle
I make my tea around lunch and I drink it...
 
If you come to me, my lady,
ring the door longer, don't expect me
to answer imediately - I'm in my pajamas
 
Carelessly you can smoke,
You can do anything, I don't mind
The pale smoke climbs onto the ceiling...
I can sit for a year with my eyes on the ceiling
I can sit for a year
 
I can sit for a year with my eyes on the ceiling
I can sit for a year
 
I can sit for a year with my eyes on the ceiling
I can sit for a year
 
The cat was hiding and lying under the bed,
What he's doing, I didn't ask him!
He's got a curious habit, he's very capricious,
When he's angry, he's turning the house upside-down, really!
 
Meooow!
 

You / If you can

Her skin is burnt by the Sun
a weird skin of late middle-age,
driving cars, starting engines
burnt by the sun...
 
I see her from one side a little strained
listening carefully, looking carefully,
The clouds outside I've read them in some book
I see them from oneside...
How can you guess
at what movie you'd get bored?
How many won't want to stay
just five minutes in your left side?
 
It's hard to realise,
and then after a while,
the fright is coming...
The chromozomes, for example, someone said
'I don't believe anything you say!'
Because you got two and I only got one
'I don't believe anything you say!'
Really, there are doctors that with no reason
'don't believe anything you say!'
Really, they saw them with the microscope
'I don't believe anything, anything you say!'
 
A ray of sun
believes that you
like a crystal, you can let her pass,
but no,
unfortunately no!
 
The look in her eyes is a weird map
There are springs, there are forests
There is a north, there is even a spot
It's a weird girl!
Disappears easily, from one move
Some say that she's an egyptian secret,
and clouds from the outside disappear and it's sunny:
What a weird move!...
 
I'd like to know
Although it's sunny,
why is it deserted?
If you can, make from night a day,
If you can, make me fly,
If you can, disciplin the kids
You'll see it ain't easy!
If you can, stay all the winter in the tent,
If you can, just do it, please!
If you can, take another piece of cake
and then you won't feel good!
 
If I call you in the evening
you just fell asleep
And if I call you earlier,
you sleep and it's a pity
On the daytime you're gone
On the night time, you don't answer
How can I reach you
if you're hiding?
 
If you can, just appear on TV,
If you can, tell me stories,
If you can, make me sing in the choir
Eventually, you get tired!
Eventually, you get tired!
Eventually, you get tired!
Eventually, you get tired! (I already got tired!...)
Eventually, you get tired!
Eventually, you get tired! (I already got tired!...)
Eventually, you get tired!
Eventually, you get tired! (I already got tired!...)
Eventually, you get tired!
Eventually, you get tired! (I already got tired!...)
Eventually, you get tired!
 

Blues for Florian Lungu

I wake up early in the morning
but not so many times
I usually get up late
Don't know the exact time!
My neighbours know and I can't accuse them
'cause everyday I'm singing blues...
 
When I go shopping,
When my momma makes pickles,
When I walk the streets at night,
When I sit in my pajamas,
even on bus or on trolley,
I'm singing blues all day long!
 
A girl has asked me
'Ain't that a pity about this time?'
It was too hard to explain
so I didn't tell a word
Couldn't even refuse her
just for singing the blues!
 
My friends nicknamed me
and everyone calls me 'Sweet'!
I like the bass players, I confess,
but not the ones that don't play it good
But I feel much more amused
when anyone tries to sing the blues!
 

Not without you #2

I can go without gas in my tank,
with no spare wheel, even without engine
I can anyway, but
Not without you,
Not without you,
Not without you, no!
Not without you,
Not without you,
Not without you, no!
 
I can go early dressed in pajamas,
I can go on time, I can be late
I can go even this way, but
Not without you,
Not without you,
Not without you, no!
Not without you,
Not without you,
Not without you, no!
 
It would be hard without you,
I don't think I'm gonna resist
Who would nag me
to do this to not do that?
 
I'd go in a big hurry
with no keys in my pocket
I'd even go this way, but...
Not without you,
Not without you,
Not without you, no!
Not without you,
Not without you,
Not without you, no!
 
I can go with no aspirins,
no piramidon, no ampicilin
I can go anyway, but not without you
Not without you,
Not without you,
Not without you, no!
Not without you,
Not without you,
Not without you, no!
 

Not without you #1

It would be hard without you,
I don't think I'm gonna resist
Who would nag me
to do this to not do that?
 
I'd go in a big hurry
with no keys in my pocket
I'd even go this way, but...
 

Unexplainable

You can see that she's got class
you can see that she's got style,
I'm sure that next to her
I look like a poor old child...
 
So tall and slim
under my hard look
From all the girls around
she was the only one to not look at me!
 
There are laws for people,
there are laws for Gods,
but there's no law
for her heart and soul
 
Only when she's flipping her hand
when she's smiling a bit,
mountains and oceans are moving
and clouds are hiding and not coming!
 
You know, I'm very afraid
and I cannot explain,
It's the same thing always happening
since I was a kid.
 
I know exactly what to tell
I even know the right word
but until it got on my lips,
the word melted!...
 
She's wearing white in the summer,
and on the winter - the same
A Europe-sized scarf
takes her and hides her away
 
And that is everything
that I know about her
I don't know her, but I saw her
Maybe I didn't have to...
 
And so, from then I sit and wait
Maybe when we'll be meeting again?
And so, from then I sit and wait
Maybe when we'll be meeting again?
And so, from then I sit and wait
Maybe when we'll be meeting again?
And so, from then I sit and wait
Maybe when we'll be meeting again?
 
It has no importance
how my song is gonna end up...
 

General Pacepa's Blues

Mmmm...Early in the morning
I came from Sovata
Mmmm...Early in the morning
I came from Sovata
I searched everywhere
Found you nowhere...
 
I was even at Căciulata,
I was even at Călimăneşti,
I was even at Căciulata,
I was even at Călimăneşti,
I asked about you
No one knows where are you!...
 
Tell me you have gone
Tell me that you left
But don't let me search about you
in the East or in the West,
Maybe you're at Baia Mare
Maybe you're at Baia Mare
I don't know your adress
You don't write me any letter!
 

The morning and us

Until I reached you,
I turned the clock three times
I can barely see you
in the foggy morning light
Look at me sitting
waiting for you to descend
 
Last night
got late in your eye shadows
You leave traces in the air
with your dark hair
I forgot the day,
the place, the hour - I forgot them all.
 
You are a witch,
there's no turning back
Your power is big
Making one of two and two from one
There is nothing
just the morning and us.
 

Capricious blues

In our country, every billionaire
started from scratch and he's popular:
Appears smilingly on TV,
says: 'I swear that it's easy!'
 
'Five lei at the start,
And look how many I've got!
Five lei at the start,
And look how many I've got!'
 
They didn't make chemical juice(*), didn't buy cashmere
didn't sell boots, or snails, or kefir,
They sold aluminium and steel and furniture
and 'Subansamble Cugir', huh!
 
'Five lei at the start,
And look how many I've got!
Five lei at the start,
And look how many I've got!'
 
I've saved up some money in my drawer
but I got no zoological name, and no dress name(**)
Got no parliament member in my pocket,
I'm struggling in vain!...
 
'Five lei at the start,
And look how many I've got!
Five lei at the start,
And look how many I've got!'
 
'Five lei at the start,
And look how many I've got!
Five lei at the start,
And look how many I've got!'
 

Nothing can change you

Nothing can change you
You're gonna remain this way
Nothing can change you
You're gonna remain this way
 
The eyes, green from my point of view,
actually blue or something like that
That was a surprise even for me
'specially because I thought I knew you so well!
 
Nothing can change you
You're gonna remain this way
Nothing can change you
You're gonna remain this way
 
Your hands, so different from year to year
got a porcelain whitening
and in your so good drawn fingers,
two big thirds make weird chords...
 
Nothing can change you
You're gonna remain this way
Nothing can change you
You're gonna remain this way
 
Your curly dark hair
is so thick and grey as a soldier's
And, really, although I wouldn't believe
you seem younger and more beautiful than at first!
 
Nothing can change you
You're gonna remain this way
A white page ripped from the book
beautifully bent and kept secretly
just for me
Nothing can change you
 

There's someone else

When I call you home late,
they tell me you've left...
The voice that answers me
confuses me with some other boy!
 
Who is he?
Who is he?
I cannot figure out...
Who is he?
Who is he?
I cannot figure out...
 
Your daddy tells me
that he has the same name
and, probably, it's still me!...
 
Don't you try to avoid me
Don't run away from me
There's just one thing that I want to know
Only you can explain me:
 
Who is he?
Who is he?
I cannot figure out...
Who is he?
Who is he?
I cannot figure out...
Who is he?
Who is he?
I cannot figure out...
Who is he?
Who is he?
I cannot figure out...
 

Categorical blues #2

I guess
I guess that you can leave
I guess
I guess that you can leave
to the place where you came from,
home in Olteniţa(*)
 
I guess
I guess that you can leave
I guess
I guess that you can leave
to the place where you came from,
home in Olteniţa
 
After so many years,
I guess it's hard for you
but we both know
that this ain't your place!
 
I guess
I guess that you can leave
to the place where you came from,
home in Olteniţa
 
You may not remember
but I guess that you'll love it:
You got everything
and plus, you got water!
 
I guess
I guess that you can leave
to the place where you came from,
home in Olteniţa
 
You were at Timişoara
You were even at Iaşi
you saw Bucureşti,
you can leave us alone!
 
I guess
I guess that you can leave
to the place where you came from,
home in Olteniţa
 

Weather report(song for Ciulică)

Closed doors, not a sound,
darkness in which you fall,
nobody needs nobody
and that's why I guess It's gonna rain today...
 
For every whisper,
fir trees die hidden in the fog.
Apparently, everything seems good,
but I'm sure it's gonna rain today...
 
In the window, detached of the world,
neither the cat has no fun...
Although it's sunny, I know better
how hard it rains, it rains today outside...
 
I hear how it rains, it rains today outside...
 
It rains so hard for me
Today...
 

When you stay at home

If you got at home a place
where you can stay how much you want
and there's nobody to know,
I'm sure that there you're hiding
and you get into your thoughts
through a secret door
that you only know...
 
Don't tell me it ain't this way, 'cause I don't believe you!
Don't tell me it ain't this way, 'cause I don't believe you!
 
Then your face is brown
and your eyes are indigo
and bigger and with no curtain
ain't it right?
I guessed the way you comb your hair smiling
and how you're singing whispering
as if you're missing
a sailor...
 
Don't tell me it ain't this way, 'cause I don't believe you!
Don't tell me it ain't this way, 'cause I don't believe you!
 
Don't hide your palms in your pocket
you're caught with a dice in their drawing
and if I'd knew a game,
I'd try it imediately
if you have a place
when you're at home!
 

Dear Sheherezada

Dear Sheherezada,
there is the lot,
choose a pair
but see if it ain't old
See if it ain't dirty
as last night happened
Please, start your story
'cause then we go to the second thingy!

The sheik from Baghdad
was such a weak man
Everyone knew about it
and only about it was talking
If someone from Baghdad was passing through,
Imediately found out
about the sheik from Baghdad
and his very very weak point.
 
Trr trr trr trr trr trr trr trr
Trr trr trr trr trr trr trr trr
Trr trr trr trr trr trr trr trr
Trr trr trr trr trr trr trr trr
 
But hey, one day
an entyre commission had come
and went straight to the sheik from Baghdad
that had a weak point
and said 'How can this possible that in Baghdad
is a sheik with a weak point
when in other places in the world, with a weak point
you can't even be a painter, comrades!'
 
Trr trr trr trr trr trr trr trr
Trr trr trr trr trr trr trr trr
Trr trr trr trr trr trr trr trr tatatatata
Trr trr trr trr trr trr trr trr
 
But hey, the sheik from Baghdad
that had a weak point
was hiding in his drawers
even a strong point...
So the commission had come
and after some advice,
decided through comparison
that in this situation, comrades....
