[Verse 1]
Dragi, spavaš do podne, baš ti je krasno,
Dear, you sleep until noon, it's really great for you,
ja ovdje čekam i sve mi je jasno!
I'm waiting here and everything is clear to me!
Sad si u penziji, lako je tako
Now you're retired, it's easy like that
mene ne doživljavaš i to baš jako!
you don't notice me, and very much so!
[Chorus]
Po cijele dane mobitel držiš,
All day long you hold your phone,
prstom po ekranu k'o luđak kružiš.
you scroll on the screen like a madman.
Ja tebe gledam i ne mogu vjerovat',
I look at you and can't believe it,
zar ćeš i danas na kauču drijemat'?
will you really nap on the couch again today?
[Verse 2]
Hej, dragi, čuješ li glas?
Hey, dear, do you hear a voice?
Moj ljubimac traži svoj tretman i spas!
My pet is asking for its treatment and salvation!
Kolače, čokoladu, izlet i grad,
Cakes, chocolate, an outing and the city,
neću više gledati tvoj mobitel sad!
I won't watch your phone anymore now!
[Chorus]
Ja imam brkove, karakter i stil,
I have whiskers, character and style,
a ti si u penziji i izgubio si cilj!
and you are retired and have lost your goal!
U penziji si ti, ali nisam ja,
You are retired, but I am not,
čokolada, pokret, akcija!
chocolate, movement, action!
