Translation of the song Krivi smo mi artist Đorđe Balašević
Krivi smo mi
It's our fault
To nisu krivci primitivci
It's not the fault of the primitives
što su pokupili mast
That skimmed off the cream
korov nikne digod stigne,
Weeds spring up where they can
ma svaka njima čast
We can only congratulate them
Krivi smo mi
It's our fault
Otkud svi ti paraziti
Not all those parasites
što su nam zagustili
That made it hard for us
nemoj stari moj,
Let it go, old man,
krivi smo mi
It's our fault
što smo ih pustili
For letting them
Ma šta su znali đenerali
What did the generals know
i brkati majori
And the mustachioed majors
jedino da viču:
Only to yell:
pali ali nisu najgori
Fire, but they're not the worst
Krivi smo mi
It's our fault
Ni svi ti silni infantilni
And not all the infantile masses
što su puške sanjali
That dreamed of rifles
ne, ne derane,
No, no, buddy
krivi smo mi
It's our fault
što smo se sklanjali
For hiding in the back
Putuj Evropo,
Fair well, Europe
nemoj više čekati na nas
Don't wait for us any longer
ne pitaj mnogo,
Don't ask much
dospećeš i ti na rđav glas
Or you'll get a bad reputation too
Putuj planeto,
Fair well, planet
super smo se družili
We had a nice time together
nama je lepo,
We're doing great
taman kako smo zaslužili
Exactly as we deserve
Nisu krivci depresivci,
It's not the fault of the depressives
lude i psihopate
Lunatics and psychopaths
što su rušili pa sada
That first razed and pillaged
nama nude lopate
And are now offering us spades
Krivi smo mi
It's our fault
Nisu krivi sedativi
It's not the fault of sedatives
što ih nisu sputali
That didn't stop them
sori, matori,
Sorry, old man,
krivi smo mi
It's our fault
koji smo ćutali
For keeping our mouths shut
Putuj Evropo
Fair well, Europe
i poš'lji nam malo peciva
And send us some baked goods
nama je dobro,
We're doing well
sreća jedna neizreciva
It's an unspeakable bliss
Putuj planeto,
Fair well, planet
ovde se vrag priziva
People are summoning the Devil here
nama je lepo,
We're doing nice
slika jedna neopisiva
It's an undescribible picture
