Ivan Mladek - Jozin z Bazin (Polish)

I felt the call of nature,
In my little car, I race forward.
I'm in a bit of a hurry,
So I take a shortcut there,
Where in the swamps lurks
That dreadful beast,
That devours city dwellers —
It's called Jozin.

Jozin from the bog;
Creeps through the marshes.
Jozin from the bog;
Is looking for prey again.
Jozin from the bog;
Sharpening its fangs again.
Jozin from the bog;
Bites, strangles, jumps.
We need to get rid of him —
I know well how to do it
And tomorrow I will dust Jozin
From the plane.

I was passing through a village,
I stopped at a sign.
The manager welcomes me,
Pours vodka, and says:
"Get Jozin’s head, and
The rest of the fight is ours;
Besides my daughter’s hand,
I’ll give you half of the state farm!”

Jozin from the bog;
Creeps through the marshes.
Jozin from the bog;
Is looking for prey again.
Jozin from the bog;
Sharpening its fangs again.
Jozin from the bog;
Bites, strangles, jumps.
We need to get rid of him —
I know well how to do it
And tomorrow I will dust Jozin
From the plane.

I say: “I need powder
And a plane.
Tomorrow Jozin will be yours —
It’s simple work.”
Everything’s arranged in a flash;
I soar high above the clouds,
To sprinkle Jozin
From above with fertilizer.

Jozin from the bog;
White as a lily.
Jozin from the bog;
Is already packing up.
Jozin from the bog;
Backed to the wall.
Jozin from the bog;
The jokes are over.
I caught Jozin.
I won’t let him go, oh-ho-ho.
If I'm short on cash,
I’ll sell him to the zoo.
