Posvetila bih sljedeću pjesmu Carmelu,
00:21
who was put to sleep a couple of days ago, because he got too old.

kojega su uspavali prije par dana zato što je bio prestar.
00:26
But apparently he was a very nice dog

8000
2000
Ali izgleda da je bio vrlo drag pas
00:28
and he always let the cat sleep in the dog bed.

10000
3000
i uvijek je pustio mačku da spava u psećem krevetu.
00:35
♫ (Dog panting noise) Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh. ♫

♫ (Zvuk psećeg dahtanja) Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh. ♫
00:39
♫ I'm just a'walking my dog, singing my song, strolling along. ♫
5
21000
6000
♫ Samo šećem svog psa, pjevam svoju pjesmu, lutam. ♫
00:45
♫ Yeah, it's just me and my dog, catching some sun. We can't go wrong. ♫
6
27000
8000
♫ Da, samo smo ja i moj pas, sunčamo se, ne možemo pogriješiti. ♫
00:53
♫ My life was lonely and blue. ♫
7
35000
2000
♫ Moj je život bio usamljen i tužan.♫
00:56
♫ Yeah, I was sad as a sailor, ♫
8
38000
3000
♫ Da, bila sam tužna kao mornar. ♫
01:00
♫ I was an angry 'un too. ♫
9
42000
3000
♫ Bila sam i ljuta. ♫
01:03
♫ Then there was you -- appeared when I was entangled with youth and fear, ♫
10
45000
7000
♫ I onda si se ti pojavio kad sam bila upetljana u mladosti i strahu ♫
01:10
♫ and nerves jingle jangled, vermouth and beer were getting me mangled up. ♫
11
52000
6000
♫ i živci su proradili, vermut i pivo su me oštetili. ♫
01:16
♫ But then I looked in your eyes ♫
12
58000
2000
♫ Ali zatim sam pogledala u tvoje oči ♫
01:19
♫ and I was no more a failure. ♫
13
61000
3000
♫ i nisam bila više propali slučaj. ♫
01:22
♫ You looked so wacky and wise. ♫
14
64000
3000
♫ Gledao si toliko ćaknuto i pametno. ♫
01:26
♫ And I said, "Lord, I'm happy, 'cause I'm just a'walking my dog, ♫
15
68000
5000
♫ I rekla sam, "Gospodine, sretna sam jer jednostavno šećem svog psa, ♫
01:31
♫ catching some sun. We can't go wrong." ♫
16
73000
4000
♫ upijam sunce, ne možemo pogriješiti." ♫
01:35
♫ Yeah, it's just me and my dog, singing our song, strolling along. ♫
17
77000
6000
♫ Da, samo smo ja i moj pas, pjevamo našu pjesmu, lutajući okolo. ♫
01:41
♫ 'Cause I don't care about your hating and your doubt, ♫
18
83000
3000
♫ Jer nije me briga za tvoju mržnju i tvoju sumnju, ♫
01:44
♫ and I don't care what the politicians spout. ♫
19
86000
4000
♫ i nije me briga što političari poriču. ♫
01:48
♫ If you need a companion, why, just go out to the pound, ♫
20
90000
3000
♫ Ukoliko ti je potrebno društvo, zašto, samo odi do azila za životinje ♫
01:51
♫ and find yourself a hound, and make that doggie proud, ♫
21
93000
3000
♫ i pronađi si psa i učini tog psića ponosnim, ♫
01:54
♫ 'cause that's what it's all about. ♫
22
96000
3000
♫ jer o tome se radi. ♫
02:01
♫ (Dog panting noise) Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh. ♫
23
103000
3000
♫ (Zvuk psećeg dahtanja) Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh, heh. ♫
02:04
♫ My life was tragic and sad. ♫
24
106000
4000
♫ Moj život je bio tragičan i tužan, ♫
02:08
♫ I was the archetypal loser. ♫
25
110000
3000
♫ bila sam arhetipski gubitnik, ♫
02:11
♫ I was a pageant gone bad. ♫
26
113000
4000
♫ bila sam inscenacija koja je pošla po zlu, ♫
02:15
♫ And then there was you -- on time, and wagging your tail ♫
27
117000
5000
♫ a zatim tu si ti, na vrijeme, i mašući svojim repom ♫
02:20
♫ in the cutest mime that you was in jail. ♫
28
122000
3000
♫ u slatkoj mimici da si bio u zatvoru. ♫
02:23
♫ I said, "Woof, be mine!" and you gave a wail and then ♫
29
125000
5000
♫ Rekla sam, "Vuf, budi moj!" i i zavijao si i tada ♫
02:29
♫ I was no longer alone. ♫
30
131000
2000
♫ nisam više bila sama. ♫
02:31
♫ And I was no more a boozer. ♫
31
133000
2000
♫ I nisam više bila pijanica. ♫
02:34
♫ We'll make the happiest home. ♫
32
136000
2000
♫ Imati ćemo najsretniji dom. ♫

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Nellie McKay - Singer/songwriterNellie McKay sings, croons, raps, grooves and -- barks? -- to glowing critical acclaim.
Why you should listen
Playful, quirky, hilarious, endearing: not attributes of your typical political agitator. But singer-songwriter-producer-activist Nellie McKay merits the description. Her music is whimsical, colorful, catchy and as engaging as it is restless. Toying with antique genres and yet undeniably contemporary, it flirts with multiple styles of delivery while maintaining a sharp social conscience.
For these and other eccentricities, McKay has gained a devoted fan following. On stage and off, she's an outspoken advocate of animal rights, a friend and ally to any arch political quip and -- lucky for us -- artistically uncompromising. After cutting two major-label records, her own indie label, Hungry Mouse, produced her latest, Obligatory Villagers.
