eyn li rosh lemilim arukot
I have no head for long words
veata min mila aruka shekazot.
And you are one such long word.
tza'u yedidi vd"sh lechayech,
Ciao my friend and regards to your life,
betikva shetavin et hafracha.
Hoping you'll understand the vibe.
hashemesh shel perag' koraat et hayam,
The sun of Prague is tearing through the sea,
vaani mafliga betoch hakafkapim.
And I'm sailing off in my flip-flops.
lean sheyikechu haorot ani sham,
Wherever the lights take me, I'm there,
im halaka, halipsetik ushar davi'n.
With hairspray, lipstick, and the rest of the goods.
ki ba li lirkod, uva li shetuyot
'Cause I feel like dancing, and I feel like nonsense
ba li litzchok velo ba li aleycha
I feel like laughing and I don't feel like you
ba li bayamim uva li baleylot
I feel like it day and night
ba li litzok: "ani porcha".
I feel like shouting: "I'm a wild child."
panim shelo osot cheshbon,
A face that doesn't think twice,
vegi'ns bistayl shekatuv baiton.
And jeans in the style they write about in magazines.
silsul nitzchi besheyearot,
An eternal curl in the hair,
uposterim bimkom kirot.
And posters instead of walls.
rotze leehov kemo baseratim,
I want to love like in the movies,
chatich sheyavo beangelit utzvaim.
A hottie who'll come with English and colors.
COME ON BABY hamatos mechake,
COME ON BABY the plane is waiting,
veod chalom sheli mamri lo uvoche.
And another dream of mine takes off and cries.
ki ba li lirkod, uva li shetuyot
'Cause I feel like dancing, and I feel like nonsense
ba li litzchok velo ba li aleycha
I feel like laughing and I don't feel like you
ba li bayamim uva li baleylot
I feel like it day and night
ba li litzok: "ani porcha".
I feel like shouting: "I'm a wild child."
paam kesheyihye li zeman lihyot gedola,
Someday when I have time to grow up,
paam tigamer hamesiba.
Someday the party will end.
ki besof kol porcha mistater shikun katan
'Cause behind every wild child hides a small apartment
baal ledugma veelef kiuuney ashan.
A husband for display and a thousand directions of smoke.
ki ba li lirkod, uva li shetuyot
'Cause I feel like dancing, and I feel like nonsense
ba li litzchok velo ba li aleycha
I feel like laughing and I don't feel like you
ba li bayamim uva li baleylot
I feel like it day and night
ba li litzok: "ani porcha".
I feel like shouting: "I'm a wild child."
ki ba li lirkod, uva li shetuyot
'Cause I feel like dancing, and I feel like nonsense
ba li litzchok velo ba li aleycha
I feel like laughing and I don't feel like you
ba li bayamim uva li baleylot
I feel like it day and night
ba li litzok: "ani porcha".
I feel like shouting: "I'm a wild child."
