1987. [English translation]

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...
