Slavni režiser je u našem gradu
A famous director is in our city
snima novi film, kažu, bit će dobar
he's shooting a new movie, they say it will be good
strani glumci, prijemi i lova
foreign actors, reception and cash
nema sumnje, smiješi mu se Oskar
there's no doubt, an Oscar is incoming
Trebat će on i mnogo statista
He will also need a lot of extras
za masovne i grandiozne scene
for massive and grandiose scenes
iako kažu da on dobro plaća
even though they say that he pays well
tamo neće, neće biti mene
there I will, there I will not be
Neću da budem Švabo
I won't be a Nazi
u dotiranom filmu
in a subsidized movie
neću da budem statist
I won't be an extra
u životu i u kinu
in life nor in the cinema
neću da budem Švabo
I won't be a Nazi
Švabo da budem neću
a Nazi I won't be
Neću da budem okupator
I won't be an occupier
ima neki đavo u mojoj psihi
there's some devil in my psyche
neću da budem Švabo
I won't be a Nazi
kad ne mogu biti Prle niti Tihi
when I cannot be Prle nor Tihi**
neću da budem Švabo
I won't be a Nazi
Švabo da budem neću
a Nazi I won't be
Glavni glumci bi htjeli
The main actors would want
da su na pravoj strani
to be on the right side
ja da budem Švabo
for me to be a Nazi
a oni partizani
and for them to be partisans
