about

Self-Adhesive Otto

In the popular pub U Zdeňka, people drank and talked. In one of those stories, a memory of a forgotten local character came up. And so it happened that Self-adhesive Otto entered the author's head and a song began to emerge.

Self-Adhesive Otto. A seemingly ordinary meeting at a bus stop hides a need to fill the void caused by the pandemic and isolation. The text reflects the author's helplessness, the loss of the meaning of life, but also the natural human effort to glue the world (and oneself) back together. "He tried to glue the world together".

lyrics

LYRICS

I´m standing at the bus stop
Waiting for a ride
The weather is so pretty
No way to kill the time

Here comes that cross-eyed face
Blue nylon jacket

I wonder what´s his deal
and I hope he doesn't want my smokes


I’m reaching into my pocket
Looking for my knife
I can hear him saying:
“Wanna Cow Face for some change?”

Now I know the man
Blue nylon jacket

Everytime I see this guy
He starts to shout and jump around


I know he´s fucking crazy
But I´m gonna ask anyway
"When is the bus coming?" He says
I´m waiting for the "Train"

He is a cross-eyed face
Blue nylon jacket

This guy is a legend here
And I bet you know him too


Self adhesive Otto
He tried to glue the world together


He tried to glue the world together
