Jerzy Stuhr - Śpiewać każdy może

Everyone can sing
One does better, and other worse
But it is not about
How one manages with what
Sometimes a man just has to,
Otherwise he'll suffocate,
Ooohhh

I like songs, and various other sounds,
Especially when they move me,
they got stuck in my ears
Now I'm going to be honest,
I chose the path of career,
The stage career,
Surely I'll succeed

I'm standing by the microphone,
Let one try and drive me away;
Various stages, brigades,
Won't manage to do so;
Because I'm not bragging at all
I'm just, alas, talented.

When a man believes in himself,
Then all the rest is not a problem;
There's no pipe in the world,
that cannot be unclogged;
Just get on the stage and stay there,
the rest is an easy thing.

And I know what's going on*,
That's why I'm gonna stay here,
I'll sing the songs,
Lassies will clap,
They'll be giving me flowers,
Now I'll be rich
Because I'm not bragging at all,
I'm, alas, talented;
When I utter a sound
Everyone's on cloud nine.

I'm standing by the microphone,
Let one try and drive me away;
Various stages, brigades,
Won't manage to do so;
No one here will touch me,
because he might feel it oddly;
I'm not trying to scare anyone,
I'm just putting them down with my talent.
I like songs very much,
And various other sounds,
Especially when they move me
they get stuck in my ears.
I know the beautiful hits,
I'll follow the path of career.
