Nema boljeg rada lyrics

Nema boljeg rada od nerada

There's no better work than idleness

Kad je plata s državnih jasala

When the salary is from state troughs

Prosti narod još uvijek se nada,

The simple people still hope,

al' je pravda odavno nestala.

but justice has long disappeared.

Politiku tumače svi redom

Everyone interprets politics in turn

po potrebi, kako kome godi.

as needed, as it suits whomever.

Slijepi pastir upravio stado,

A blind shepherd has led the flock,

provaliji uporno ga vodi.

stubbornly guiding it to an abyss.

Šta bi pastir da nije ovaca,

What would the shepherd be without sheep,

šta bi ovce da nije pastiira?

what would the sheep be without a shepherd?

Ovo stado s malo jaganjaca

This flock with few lambs

Saamo svoju provaliju bira.

chooses its own abyss.

Ovce bleje, za pastirom trče,

The sheep bleat, they run after the shepherd,

ostrigane sve do gole kože,

shorn down to bare skin,

poneku će ovan da omrče,

the ram will defile some,

nek ih ima, samo nek se množe.

let there be some, just let them multiply.

Svaka ovca ima pravo glasa,

Every sheep has the right to vote,

a glasaće za svoga pastira,

and it will vote for its shepherd,

Izbori su, neka se talasa.

It's elections, let there be commotion.

Svako svoju provaliju bira

Everyone chooses their own abyss.

Šta bi pastir da nije ovaca,

What would the shepherd be without sheep,

šta bi ovce da nije pastiira?

what would the sheep be without a shepherd?

Ovo stado s malo jaganjaca

This flock with few lambs

Saamo svoju provaliju bira.

chooses its own abyss.

Šta bi narod kad izbori prođu,

What would the people do when elections pass,

a da jednom istina pobijedi?

and what if truth once prevailed?

Kako da se naviknu na vođu,

How would they get used to a leader,

ko će nekog novoga da slijedi?

who would follow someone new?

Šta bi pastir da nije ovaca?

What would the shepherd be without sheep?

Šta bi ovce da nije pastira?

What would the sheep be without a shepherd?

Ovo stado s malo jaganjaca

This flock with few lambs

saamo svoju provaliju bira.

chooses its own abyss.

Ovo stado s malo jaganjaca

This flock with few lambs

saamo svoju provaliju bira.

chooses its own abyss.
