Yesterday I listened to the news on the radio
A special look at the shooting in Persia
They rarely mention comrade Hamdija1 anymore
Too many are living on credit
Pure misery,
Vile and wretched, 1987
In global stock markets dogs are barking
Let the dollar sink, there are still our promissory notes
It's not the big beasts that scare me
It's bloodsuckers and bedbugs
Pure misery,
Vile and wretched, 1987
Children are getting killed in their sleep
I'm worried by the rise
Of the Chetnik vampire
What does the vampire know about emigration
He sees everything purely ethnically
Pure misery,
Vile and wretched, 1987
And somewhere at the very bottom of the newspaper
A small and insignificant piece of news
That some guy has been singing for ten years
He's sung his due
Over, it's all over!
Yesterday I watched TV
A misunderstood genius
Comrade Fadilj2 is in dire straits
Nobody understands his powerful vision
Public institutions are not breathing
Pure misery,
Vile and wretched, 1987
Let's go, kids ...
In Novi Sad there are demonstrations3
A well-known story, it's again because of the canteen
The youth of the nation is in the streets
All we are missing is Lech Walesa
Pure misery, vile and wretched, 1987
And somewhere at the very bottom of the newspaper
A small and insignificant piece of news
That some guy has been singing for ten years
He's sung his due, over, it's all over!
And some comrade raised his voice again4
The comrade again gave us a speech about everything
And yes, he shouted at us a bit
By the end, the speech was pure horror
Pure misery, vile and wretched, 1987
The case of these citizens is complicated
Nobody dares tell them to save their strength
And that the war was recently finished
And that Russians are already at the Reichstag
Pure misery,
Vile and wretched, 1987
La, la, la, la, la...
Oleo! La, la, la, la, la, la, la...
Vile and wretched, 1987!
Vile and wretched, 1987!
Silly!
Vile and wretched, 1987!
Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop!
Vile and wretched, 1987!
Vile and wretched, 1987!
The worst year!
Vile and wretched, 1987!
Vile and wretched, 1987!
Vile and wretched, 1987!
Ptui, fu...
