Elemental.

Hi everybody

I discovered this rap group (elemental) during the Gorazde festival 2009, one week ago, and I LOVE that songs. The biggest problem is... I don't speak croatian at all. :'(
If someone accept to translate some of them for me, it would be great.
The following songs are concerned :
- Malo Sutra
- Ne Vjerujem
- Zasto te Imam
- Crveno (red ? )

Thanks a lot, and sorry for my poorly english

Elemental - Crveno
Elemental - Red

Hands have matched, maybe someone is thinking of me
You are the first one I recall, are you still alone, I wonder...
I'm watching night conspiracy of traffic lights
I point every red light, not quite fun
Streets hazel and enjoy the rain.
I'm taking off my cellphone from charger, calling you and asking where you are
We haven't heard a while, you told me not to call you,
That it is better this way, I hear a voice of a new girl
I tell you how I remembered our red lights
And how sweet you were laughing to my nonsenses
I ask you if you're ok, are you still playing in the band
You laugh, say, you have a new song
And it tells about us, but I'm not going to like it
Cause it does not have happy ending and how you dont want to see me again
I close my cellphone and think about red lights
here's the green light, red has lost...

I loved it much more when you were driving me home
Often silance was telling more than a 1000 words
Every red light meant that we can be more together
Now I rush through them, as far as I can, as far as I can...

We would drink a bit more, and you would let me drive
I would change levels (speeds), you would rub my leg
We laughed as kids, which we were
How many times we could get killed like fools
But God guides fools, and he loved us specialy
Who would say that afterall we were not meant to be?
I volume up the radio, I want to push my toughts
And I hear the song on which we liked to make love
I think its the last thing I need now
I swear to myself and look to the skies
While you were driving me home I would
Watch Sava (river) and old roofs of Zagreb
I would watch you too, but you wouldnt notice
And when you would, you would smile
We would stop on red light, you would turn to me
we kissed as long as the red shines

I loved it much more when you were driving me home
Often silance was telling more than a 1000 words
Every red light meant that we can be more together
Now I rush through them, as far as I can, as far as I can...

I loved it much more when you were driving me home
Often silance was telling more than a 1000 words
City was whole red of red lights
But none of them can make me stop now

Now I avoid intersections, I prefer open road
Cause I have a feeling that only then I'm not on my place
I don't watch the signs, I don't care what will be
I'm not running from past, or from things that are going to be
I dont want to drink, cause then toughts run around
And my eyes get cloudy from the tears that run through my cheeks
And I hate myself for not dealing with this in my head
I wouldnt feel sick if I see you
Red now means to me only weakness to escape
Not to send you a message when my throat thighs
Red is my weakness, I hate it more than you
And that new girl who f***s you now
Red now sores me when I'm going home late
So I push the gas, and run through it ......



I really tried hard on this one! This is great song I love it, but it was so hard to translate it. I'm sorry for mistakes, and if you have any questions or things you dont understand, ask!!!

Woaw, thank you, that's awesome !

How great to understand, finally. LOVE this song even more now !

there is a part in the end of song, like a report which says "yesterday in the center of the town happend a big car accident in which died a young female. The girl passed with her car on the red right and because of the high speed she went of road and hit the wall of the nearby building''

yeah song is good really, lyrics are really great. its kinda touching

If I understand correctly, she probably killed herself...
Touching, that's the good word for this song ; )

Zašto te imam
Why do I have you



Refren:
Zašto te imam kad ne daješ mi ništa
Why do I have you when you give me nothing
Zašto te imam kada ne čuješ moj glas
Why do I have you when you don't hear my voice
Da li padnem koji put ja na pamet
Do you think of me sometimes
Dal' ikad staneš malo pomisliš na nas
Do you ever stop and think of us

Shot:
stavljali su plakate sa nekom pametnom frazom, tvoje
They put posters whit some smart phrase, your
lice sa kravatom i nekim polu-tupim izrazom
face with a tie and some half-dull expression
američkim smješkom, onako ni vrit ni mimo, nakon
american smile, nor here or there, after
dva'est dana nacrtane brkove ti bi imo
twelve days you'd have drawn mustaches
al' prošlo je - i mi smo popušili spiku, dali ti
but it passes - and we blow your speech, do you
taj prokleti glas na lijepe oči, valjda na sliku smo
that damn voice, pretty eyes, I guess on picture we
pali - ti si se dočepo fotelje, ušo u
fell - you grab the armchair, got in
sabor, šutio, pustio da neko drugi melje
the Parliament, let someone other to babble
ušo bi u dvoranu kad rekli bi „dižu se ruke“ preko
you'd come in the hall, they say "put your hands up", through
veze u neki upravni odbor upao bez muke
a connection you invaded into a Governing Board without a torment
plaća je rasla, u saboru nisi reko ništa
your payment was raising, in Parliament you said nothing
radije cijeli dan u kantini uz dva gemišta
you were rather in canteen with two wine and water
riješio si za stranca neke građevinske dozvole, od
you solved some building permits for a stranger, from
grada da dobije zemlju da šoping centar otvore
town he gets some land to open a mall
uzeo si proviziju, kupio stan u gradu, imao
took fee, bought an apartment in town, had
jako skup auto za ić na sjednicu u vladu
very expensive car so you could go to a conference in Government
kolotečina te uzela, fino si se uljuljao, u samo
rut took you, you settled well, in just
nekoliko godina daleko si dogurao od
few years you got far from
običnog činovnika, kroz rat u mjesnoj zajednici,
usual clerk, through war in local community
u civilnoj zaštiti do stranke pa u središnjici, pa
in civil defense to the party and in bisector, and
eto ti izbori – sugrađani vole te, sad
here are the elections - fellow citizens love you, now
tu si di jesi, ma dobro je, ma boli te
you're here where you are, it's good, you don't give a damn
tu si di jesi, ma dobro je, ma boli te
you're here where you are, it's good, you don't give a damn
tu si di jesi, ma jebo narod, boli te
you are here where you are, f**k the people, you don't give a damn


Refren:
Zašto te imam kad ne daješ mi ništa
Why do I have you when you give me nothing
Zašto te imam kada ne čuješ moj glas
Why do I have you when you don't hear my voice
Da li padnem koji put ja na pamet
Do you think of me sometimes
Dal' ikad staneš malo pomisliš na nas
Do you ever stop and think of us

Remi:
Tko bi reko, kako je vrijeme proteklo dok si uživao
Who'd say, as time passed by while you enjoyed
Evo opet izbora, opet si se kandidirao.
elections are here again, you candidated again
I kupio medije, izlijeto iz pašteta
Bought the media, jumped out of pies
Nastupao pod sloganom "Izbacimo što narodu smeta"
Perfomed with text "Remove what people bothers"
A zapravo, nisi znao što se zbivalo,
And actually, you didn't even know what was happening
Zaglibio si preduboko da bi razlučivao.
Swamped too deep to distinguish
Al' još jedna pobjeda i zastupnički honorar,
But one more victory and a fee of a meber of Parliament
Iz oporbe i stranke svi su skandirali "ti si car"
From oposition and parties everybody yelled "you're the emperor"
Bio si u odborima, rezo vrpce crvene
you were in the boards, cutting red tapes
Radio ispod radara uz mito i koverte.
worked below the radar with bribes and envelopes
Milijuni kuna na računu se talože,
millions of kunas deposit on your account
Svi te mole za pomoć, uz tvoj potpis sve se može
everyone cries for help, with your signature everything is possible
Ulizivo se tajkunima, ljubio si satove,
you were good with the rich ones, kissing the watches
Prodao si dignitet za drago kamenje
sold your dignity for precious stones
Zavarao si narod, pokazao im srednjak
fooled the people, show them middle finger
A oni su mislili da si poštenjak
and they thought you're fair one

al je stislo, ti mediji, teško ih kontrolirat
but it clenched you, those medias, it's hard to controle them
počeli čačkat i kopat tamo di se ne smije dirat
they start to pick and dig where they shouldn't
nekom obrve se digle, Uskok upetljao prste
someone's eyebrows raised, Uskok tangled it's fingers
ali ne mogu ništa, nemaju dokaze čvrste
but they cannot do anything, they don't have solid proof


Remi:
Izgubio si razum, gramzivo grabio za sebe
You lost your reason, greedy grab only for yourself
Ne daj Bože da masa digne glas protiv tebe
God forbid that people raise voice against you
Otpuhivao si cigaru s prozora urbane vile bez papira
you blow your cigar from a window on your urban villa without papers
Nedodirljiv gad bez duševnog mira.
untouchable bastard without mental peace
Stolac ti se zatreso zbog istražnog zahtjeva
Your chair shaked because of investigative request
I afere izgrađenog shopping centra bez dozvola
and a scandal where mall was built without license
Uz povlačenje veza, zataškalo se sve,
with connections drawn, everything was hushed up
Vrijeme liječi rane, ljudi brzo zaborave.
time heals everything, people forget fast

REFREN

Ne vjerujem
I don't believe

Remi:
Televizija nikada ne laže
TV never lies
ako je bilo na TV, to je istina, tak se kaže
if it was on Tv, that's true, so people say
Povijesne knjige su objektivne
history books are objective
Nema jednostrane istine, sve su to ispovjesti divne.
there's no one way truth, all confessions are gorgeous
Novine su izvor vijesti, al kasne jedan dan
newspapers are source of news, but they are late one day
Radio pušta reklame, mora bit financiran.
radio releases advertisements, has to be financed
Mi šmrčemo žutilo, svaki nanos na nos
We inhalate gossip, every drift on our nose
pa je danas glavni štos s kim se jebe madam Pokos?
so today is main stunt with whom madam Pokos f**ks
Emisije showbiza su važnije neg svjetska kriza
Showbizz program is more important than world crisis
Piskarala zanima tko se domogo novih sisa.
Blotter wants to know who has new boobs
Uz oči širom otvorene mi smo narod slijep
With eyes wide open we are blind nation
Kupim novine za tri kune da mi drek stane u džep.
I buy newspaper for three kunas so poo fits in my pocket
A televizija? Svi su nekom pristrani
And TV? They are always one way sided
Na korak smo do istine, al se osjećamo posrani
We are one step next to truth, but we feel shited
Danas sam bacila radio kroz prozor,
Today I throw radio through the window
sloboda medija, kako hvalevrijedan prizor
freedom of media, how praise worthy scene
Meni su valovi postali previsoki za plivanje
To me waves became too high to swim
U moru informacija, odabirem utapljanje.
in sea of information, I choose drowning

I stojim u redu i plaćam račune
And I stand in line and pay bills
sigurnije je tako nek se neki drugi bune
it's safer like that, I let other to revolt
I stojimo u redu i plaćamo račune
and we stand in line and pay bills
Poslušan narod ovaj, voli glumiti pijune...
This nation is obedient, like to act like figures


Refren:

Ne vjerujem u svaku riječ što podvaljujete da me zavarate

I don't believe any lie I hear from you, believe me I don't believe you

Jebemti kako smo glupi, i kako nas znaju provozat,
F**k how stupid we are, and how they now to take us
a koji smo mi kreteni da ne znamo to prepoznat,
and we're such jerks that we don't know how to recognize it
Ajme kako smo glupi šta damo da nam rade
God we are so stupid that we let them do that to us
a koje smo mi budale nikako da nam se zgade
and we're such fools, no way that they are distinguished to us

Oni nude što nam treba, samo probaj bit bez toga,
They offer what we need, just try to be without that
u prekrasno pakiranje bi stavili i boga,
in beautiful package they would put God too
oni tu su sad zbog tebe i ti vjeruješ u njih, samo
they are here now for you and you believe in them, just
daj im svoje novce, budi sretan, budi tih, nemoj
give them your money, be happy, be quiet, don't
prigovarat, oni ionako znaju najbolje,
complaint, they know how is the best
prepusti se – stavi balone na prozore, kupi
let yourself go - put ballons on windows, buy
novine da vidiš što ti imaju za reć, tamo
newspapers so you can see what they have to tell you, there
stoji kako je, ti im vjeruješ svaku riječ, pusti
stands how is going on, you believe them every word, let go
to što teško živiš - pogledaj što ti nude, svojim
the fact you live hard - look what they have to offer you, with their
proizvodom se trude da tvoj život bolji bude
product they are trying that your life is better
lica sa ekrana znaju istinske vrednote
faces on the screen know true value
za dvaest kuna na kiosku uđi u njihove živote, to
for twelve kunas on stand get into their lives, that's
nisu prostote, to ti je fina erotika, ima
not simplicity, that's fine erotica, it's
već petnaest godina i ne zanima ju politika,
fifteen year now and she doesn't matter for politics
top ten bogatih, saznaj ko su, što su, opet
top ten rich, find out who they are, what they are, again
vrati na onu malu – kako ima dobru sisu!
go back to that little chic - she has such nice boob!
izreži kupone oni donijet će ti sreću,
cut the coupons they will bring you luck
zaokruži tu di treba imaš šansu duplo veću, sve za
pick here where you need to to have double chance, everything
samo par kuna, a bez njih bi ionako ost'o. ovako
for just few kunas and you'd loose them to, like this
oni te nagrađuju – al sto posto!
they reward you - but 100%
