(O!) They're still sitting over that coffee
Still stuffing themselves with tapenade
Filling their mouths with sunroot (with what?)
And keep dreaming about Aventador
Grounded avocado on toast, it's a little hard
Because they rarely have the soft ones in shops
Their waiter grew up in a rather poor neighborhood
He could probably feed a whole herd with those 30zł
The client is boasting that he's been to Lisbon
And had a pretty hotel for free
Where people sang Fado outside his window
He talked about that for 45 minutes, and the waiter kept bringing them appetizers
Those people are rather from that second Poland1
But I see them in pubs on the wonderful dirty Fridays
Standing in the queues to powder our noses
To, at least for a moment, catch some reason for living
That will get stuck in their throats, once they get a lockjaw
It's not hatred, but they seem funny to him
They don't touch topics that are hard to digest when they're full
Brunch for 450zł, dozen of people eating
And they left 2,30zł as a tip, wow thanks
You think they're fucking swindlers but you have to stand and say "please enter your PIN and press the green button" (PIN and green)
All those degrees and diplomas just to stand here now and say "please enter your PIN and press the green button" (PIN and green)
Life was supposed to go in different directions but now I have to stand and say "please enter your PIN and press the green button" (PIN and green)
Politely "PIN and green"

Grounded avocado on toast, rye bread gets stuck in the throat, he sips on the Cava2
Written with "C" and "V", he likes to drink in the morning
Grzegorz's3 life is like a CV in which everyone lies
Now the waiter is staring like an idiot
And shamelessly listening to their conversations
He gets sent to bring some more, comes back with a tray
He's curious what his salary is, what he does with the money
He stumbles upon people like him on Fridays in pubs, and it's really bizarre
People are only equal in the grave and toilet queues
And at a party, which is still going even though it's bright outside.
He can't change his life even though he's a little tired of it
So the waiter reminds him of an important beast
The beast of addiction, and this horrific pressure
He waits for a tip made of paper bills
2,30zł should be enough for him, he'd spend it on alcohol anyway

(Woah)
1. There's an unofficial way of diving Poland into "A" and "B" (better and worse) based on people's salary and how well they're living2. Cava is a wine, and in Polish "kawa" means coffee. They sound exactly the same3. Most likely refers to a character from the "Łańcuch" songs on the same album
