This Goran Dragic Music Video Is Pretty Catchy

There aren’t nearly enough comedy music tributes recorded about foreign NBA players these days. I really hate dishing out such a hot take to you guys like that, but Slovenian comedian Klemen Slakonja’s “Dragon, Dragone” tribute to Phoenix Suns guard Goran Dragic is making me demand that more global comedy icons get their sh*t together and start honoring their countries’ athletes more. As for Slakonja, he’s not mocking Dragić as much as he’s praising the athlete’s rise to prominence in the NBA, according to Suns.com, but this could all just be an elaborate ruse, because I don’t understand a word that he’s saying.

Fortunately, the Suns also provided some lyrics so you can sing along. Well, actually you can just comprehend along, and maybe try to figure out why there’s a random baby.

As a kid I got up at 3 to watch Steve Nash,
never thought I’d be the one making that much cash,
In America they were first saying Goran Tragic,
all along I believed in my own magic.
Now, in the NBA, they call me the Dragon – zmaj,
– when it awakes inside me, breathing fire, flashing by now!
Goran, Gorane, you’re the best playmaker in the NBA,
faster than a bird, dropping three-pointers.
Dragon, Dragone, MVP & All-Star,
I adore and love you,
even though you’re from Slovenia.
I fought to get to where I am now,
I feel like I’m living some sort of dream,
Got married and had a son,
Who’s your daddy?
And the team is playing like one big family.
But still I do miss the guys from national team,
in Phoenix my Maja sometimes makes me žgance,
because I love everything , everything that is Slovene,
specially the fans who are cheering hellishly.
Now, in nba, they call me the Dragon – zmaj,
– when it awakes inside me, breathing fire, flashing by now!
Goran, Goran ours,
you you you are the best in the world, our basketball player,
faster than a bird, dropping three-pointers.
I love you I’d give you all,
you’re really such a great guy, such a catch,
That you’re an All-Star knows even Kevin Durant!
Gogi, I love you because like me, you have a soft ć.
We adore you all!
We love you all!
Although we are not countrymen.
Gogiiiiiiiiiiii!
(Dragon, Dragone, Dragon, Dragone Željko, Modrijani take over)
Goran, Gorane, you’re the best playmaker in NBA,
faster than a bird, dropping three-pointers.
Dragon, Dragone, MVP & All-Star,
I adore and love you,
even though you’re from Slovenia.
Goran, Goran ours,
you you you are the best in the world, our basketball player,
faster than a bird, dropping three-pointers.
I love you I’d give you all,
you’re really such a great guy, such a catch,
That you’re an All-Star knows even Kevin Durant!

To be honest, I’m not sure this is a comedy as much as it’s a love song. A really desperate and creepy love song.
