Čovek za kog se udala Buba Erdeljan [English translation]

There was a dance night in Bačka Palanka

I'm lying, it was an ordinary drinking bout

We were just puddling, while getting older

It was ever more hard for us to keep up

After, we would always regret it and wonder

How far we managed to come while waking up with beasts…

A little before closing, a guy came to me

He had those Hitler-like mustaches

Signet ring and an untied tie

He intended to treat us, amazed by the party

Unfortunately, I was never a fan of those offensive fags

Who run after waitresses and who smell of barber salons, but...

I was tired, so I told that peacock:

"Man, I am knocked-down

I'm playing some songs, my days are passing

Drowned in the smoke of the restaurants

While under this tent wind blows"

He said: "Wait a bit, you were good with my old one"

Oh, so…

Yes, only then I recognized him

It's no wonder, almost a century passed

He was the jerk who married Buba Erdeljan…

Why did you do that

My lovely mouse

Why did you marry such a bum

Why weren't you careful

Why did you trade a prince for a frog

I would like to know…

You were your dad's princess, and I was a rogue

A scoundrel with hay in my hair

Take it or leave it, who could've guessed

Damn it…

Guy said: "I'm here with two nice ladies"

Yeah, more like two dangerous sluts

He winked at me, thuggishly

"We all screw around"

I winked too, sure thing

I sat like that with him

And those ducks

He kept talking

Oh, did he kiss her with those lips

Surely not…

Waiter, why are you so slow

Are you on a strike, too

C'mon, boy, bring us a bottle

It will last for a while…

I've been both north and south

Wide and around

And what is it that I missed

Not much, to be honest

An ivy from a high wall

And Buba Erdeljan…

Oh, I would like to know

Why did you do that, my beauty

Oh, you were worthy of gold

Why did you let him get tired of you

You fool

Eh, last year's snow…

Why did you do that

My lovely mouse

Why did you marry such a bum

Why weren't you careful

Why did you trade a prince for a frog

I would like to know…

I've been both north and south

Wide and around

And what is it that I missed

Not much, to be honest

An ivy from a high wall

And Buba Erdeljan…
