"Lo ba li lishmoa" - amru lo
"Lo bati lir'ot et hasho shelcha
Lo ba li lada'at mi ata bichlal..."
Az kana lo ipur vehirkiv lo knafayim

Aval hu hamshich lashir

I DON'T FEEL LIKE LISTENING
Everything has sunk, yes the hope for a career
Even though they told him "find another field"
He saw himself happy
On the stage
He started to grow sideburns and promised
That he wouldn't be disappointed, he worked [for] hours
And even wrote a happy song, light,
About love
Chorus:
"I don't feel like listening" they to told him
"I didn't come here to see your show
I don't feel like knowing who you are at all..."
So he bought make-up and wore wings
Got a contract in a well-known pub
And waited for an applause
As he was dazzled by the lights of the stage
But was amazed to discover that instead of applause
He was surprised by a shower of cans
That tore his wings [off] and he was left naked
On the stage
Chorus...
He continued to play and sing
Even though his heavy make-up dripped down
The drunks laughed, shouted to get him off
The stage
Between the chairs of the battlefield
He performed from within his dreams
She brought him his wings back
And he sang her a song just for her
Chorus...
"I don't feel like listening" they to told him
"I didn't come here to see your show"
But he carried on singing
Just for her...
