Lyrics of Čovjek I Pas - Arsen Dedic

Čovjek I Pas (original)

Ovo je tužna priča
I tužan konac ima
Ovo je tužna priča
O ljudima i psima
Dane i tjedne sami
Prošla je zima ljeto
U sobi nekog hotela
Živjehu čovjek i pseto
Jeli su ista jela
I pili su ista pića
Čovjek je živio pseći
Jer to je tužna prića
Pas se zvao Petar
Čovjek se zvao Sava
U svakome psu je čovjek
U čovjeku pseto spava
Godine tako su prošle
I postoje takve krize
Čovjek uz narav pseću
Dobije želju da grize
Ista sudbina ih prati
Isto ih grije ljeto
Ne zna se ko je čovjek
I ne zna se ko je pseto
Zajedno laju na mjesec
Samoća, jad i bijeda
Čovjeku dlaka je bijela
A psu je kosa sijeda
Vratar je sanjao vrata
Velika i od zlata
I kitu krizantema
I ljubav koje nema
Dok četiri para nogu
I dva povijena repa
Osmoro dlakavih šapa
I četiri oka slijepa
Prošli su pored njega
Čovjek i pseto skupa
Napolju bijaše hladno
I kiša ulicu kupa
Pošli su korakom složnim
U susret psećoj sudbini
Oboje vidješe nebo
I zvijezde u daljini
No odjednom očajni jauk
Razbije grad na pola
Iz prvoga ugla banu
Siva šinterska kola
I sivi razapne mrežu
Na četiri strane svijeta
Uzdrhtala je Zemlja
Ko srce velikog pseta
Čovjek il' pas svejedno
Zajedno staju da laju
Sada u kolima istim
Istom se voze kraju.___
Jer ovo je tužna priča
I tužan konac ima
Ovo je tužna priča
O psima i o psima

(translation)

This is a sad story
And there is a sad thread
This is a sad story
About people and dogs
Days and weeks alone
It's winter and summer
In a hotel room
There lived a man and a dog
They ate the same dishes
And they drank the same drinks
The man lived like a dog
Because it's a sad story
The dog's name was Peter
The man's name was Sava
There is a man in every dog
In man the dog sleeps
The years have passed like that
And there are such crises
A man by nature a dog
He gets the urge to bite
The same fate befalls them
They are also warmed by summer
It is not known who the man is
And it is not known who the dog is
They bark at the moon together
Loneliness, misery and misery
The man's hair is white
And the dog's hair is gray
The doorman dreamed of the door
Great and made of gold
And a chrysanthemum
And love that doesn't exist
While four pairs of legs
And two bent tails
Eight hairy paws
And four blind eyes
They passed him
Man and dog together
It was cold outside
And the rain bathes the street
They took a concerted step
Towards a dog's destiny
They both saw the sky
And the stars in the distance
But suddenly a desperate moan
He breaks the city in half
From the first corner of the ban
Gray shingles car
And the gray man crucified the net
On four corners of the world
The Earth trembled
Like the heart of a big dog
Man or dog doesn't matter
They stop barking together
Now in the same car
They drive the same end .___
Because this is a sad story
And there is a sad thread
This is a sad story
About dogs and about dogs
