Let 3 - Child In Time (such a travesty!)

[chica]

People, this band is absolutely fascinating! They took a ridiculous sentimental local (SFR Yugoslavia) song from the 70-ies and mocked it shamelessly. LOL! (Oh, and you'll understand why Child In Time when you hear it.) I couldn't keep myself from translating the lyrics into English, they are so silly that they actually sound bizarre. And what I found so funny about the song (especially the video) is how deadly serious they are while playing it!

Here you can read more about the band: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let_3


and here you can download the video (there are two versions - one with "tragic" and the other with happy ending - I prefer the latter):

Let 3 - Child In Time


I watch this sad autumn night
leaves are falling off of the wet branch
I hear some music from a distance
and I wonder where you are now.

I curse myself every day
for letting you go to other man so easily
I used to sing songs, hope for better future
and cry for numberless times as I strummed my guitar

Do you still remember, my love
how we picked roses together
where are you now, my youth
why did they steal you away from me?

chorus:
You didn't love me back then
and all I wanted was one thing
now when we aren't as young as we used to be
come and let us grow old together...
