Today is the day of the Republic
My old man has had some drinks
Lepa Brena on the tv
And my old man thinks of the war times
To make today a better time
The sacrefied themselfs
They walked through cold rivers
They ate the bark
He's sad, that some think
That life's better somewhere else
That people don't dream about their old days
And that people are waiting for a ticket to leave and go somewhere else
Today is the day of the Republic
Today is the day of the Republic
Today is the day of the Republic
My old lady says: Dragan keep quiet
Shut your mouth, they can hear you
The day, day of the Republic
Today is the day of the Republic
Today is the day of the Republic
Today is the day of the Republic
And my old man thinks of the war times
And he's upset, that kids
Don't play anymore as if they were an army
Today, everyone knows
That you only have one head
Today, everyone knows
In front of who you should fall on knees
Today, everyone knows, and my old man says:
'Open the windows'. he's drunk and he thinks
That the war fires are still burning upstairs
war fires are still burning upstairs
Today is the day of the Republic
Today is the day of the Republic
Today is the day of the Republic
And my old lady says:
Are you insane, Dragan
Close the windows, the stove isn't working
