בא לי, לא בא לי [Ba Li Lo Ba Li] [English translation]

Can you get up off the couch,

With that remote in your hand

And a mountain of grains in the bowl

All the shells are on your shirt!

You don't do anything

With your newspaper that doesn't end!

You're sitting here

And only gripe all day

If you don't give me, who will?

If you don't bring me, who will?

If you don't have mercy for me, who will?

And you love me

When will you find a job?

And all the time with your friends

You're going to wander around

Such a waste, it hurts

When will you get your hair cut?

(In another day)

You always say: In another day!

And only sitting here

And only croak and gripe

If you don't give me...

You say:

I want, I don't want, I'm fine, It isn't bad for me

Of course you're fine

I want, I don't want, I'm fine, It isn't bad for me

Of course it isn't bad for you, why would it be?

I don't want, banal, conventional

I don't understand, it's always the same

I want, I don't want, I'm fine, it isn't bad for me

But why are you never happy?

If you don't let him, who will?

If you don't bring him, who will?

If you don't have mercy for him, who will?

Because without you he's really miserable!
