Ja sledoval jsem Azbuka
Mnel mundur ze sojuzu
Jak Gottwald kouril cibuka
A kupoval si bluzu
Ta bluza byla z Turecka
A Azbuk ziral zhruble
Kdyz musel sahnout do vrecka
A platit ctyri ruble
Pak v dalsim ksefte za chvilku
Ja videl jsem jej opet
Kupovat damskou kosilku
A kalhotky cislo pet
Pak na vyskem podpadku
Si k tomu koupil perka
Snad kupuje to pro matku
Snad dostane to dcerka
Kdyz kupoval si paruku
A puncosky a rtenku
Ja opakoval azbuku
Pismenko po pismenku
Vsak jalo se mne zdeseni
Kdyz koupil prizi v klupku:
