The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Ditty" (Pripevochka) the performer of the song "Zemfira"

(Chorus)

He's your boy, you're his girl

He's a cheater, and you're no goody-two-shoes

You left your mark, he didn't understand:

What it was, who this "other" was.

And knives flew, and flocks of reproaches,

And you got lost in lies and your own feelings.

He will kill you, but in the very end,

For now, breathe in spring, angry, with whoever you want.

(Chorus)

He's your boy, you're his girl

He's a cheater, and you're no goody-two-shoes

He messed up, you're lost

A sleepy morning, laughing for a long time

And knives flew, and flocks of reproaches,

And you got lost in lies and feelings for each other.

You will kill him, but in the very end,

Let him breathe in spring, angry, with whoever he wants.

And knives flew, and flocks of reproaches,

And you got lost in lies and your own feelings.

He will kill you, but in the very end,

For now, breathe in spring, angry, with whoever you want.

(Chorus)

He's your boy, you're his girl

He's a cheater, you're his girl

He's your boy, you're his girl

He's your boy, you're his girl

Boy, girl…

Boy, girl…

Boy, girl…

Boy, girl…

Припев:

Он - твой мальчик, ты - его девочка

Он - обманщик, да и ты - не припевочка

Ты наследила, он же не понял:

Что это было, кто этот "кроме".

И полетели ножи, и стаи упреков

И заблудились во лжи и в собственных чувствах

Он тебя таки убьет, но в самом финале,

А пока - дыши весной, злой, с кем захочешь

Припев:

Он - твой мальчик, ты - его девочка

Он - обманщик, да и ты - не припевочка

Он перепутал, ты растерялась

Сонное утро, долго смеялось

И полетели ножи, и стаи упреков

И заблудились во лжи и друг к другу чувствах

Ты его таки убьешь, но в самом финале,

Пусть пока дышит весной, злой, с кем захочет.

И полетели ножи, и стаи упреков

И заблудились во лжи и в собственных чувствах

Он тебя таки убьет, но в самом финале,

А пока - дыши весной, злой, с кем захочешь

рипев

Он - твой мальчик, ты - его девочка

Он - обманщик, ты - его девочка

Он - твой мальчик, ты - его девочка

Он - твой мальчик, ты - его девочка

Мальчие, девочка...

Мальчие, девочка...

Мальчие, девочка...

Мальчие, девочка...

The song "Pripevochka" (meaning "Little Chorus") by Zemfira tells a story about a toxic relationship built on lies, mutual accusations, and infidelity.

The first verse immediately immerses us in the atmosphere of deceit: "He's a cheater, and you're not a good little girl." The lyrical heroine is unfaithful to her partner ("You left your mark"), but he seems to be oblivious or unwilling to acknowledge the betrayal ("he didn't understand").

The chorus repeats the phrase "He's your boy, you're his girl", which, against the backdrop of the previous lines, acquires a sarcastic connotation. This phrase, like the title of the song "Pripevochka", can be interpreted as a mockery of a simplified, childish perception of love that is shattered by the reality of complex and painful relationships.

In the second verse, the tension escalates: "And knives flew, and flocks of reproaches." The lovers are mired in mutual accusations, losing themselves and their true feelings: "And they got lost in lies and in their own feelings." The culmination is the phrase "He will kill you in the end," which can be interpreted as a metaphor for the slow destruction of each other in this relationship. At the same time, the heroine encourages living for today: "Meanwhile, breathe in the spring, be angry, be with whoever you want," as if saying that they still have time before the "finale."

The third verse almost repeats the second, but with some changes. The phrase "You will kill him in the end" may indicate that the heroine is aware of her role in the destruction of this relationship.

The multiple repetitions of the phrase "He's your boy, you're his girl" at the end of the song reinforces the feeling of hopelessness and being trapped in a toxic relationship.
