Translation of the song lyrics Zašto Me Ne Podnosi Tvoj Tata - Bijelo Dugme

Zašto Me Ne Podnosi Tvoj Tata (original)

Upoznaj me sa tvojim starim,
Daj, majku mu.
Daj, nek' me pozovu na ručak
Sad u nedjelju.
Neću ni srkati,
Neću ni mljackati,
Neću ni opsovati,
Mogu to i ja,
Neću podrignuti ni poslije piva.
Zašto me ne podnosi tvoj tata,
O, zašto, majku mu?
Odijelo ne pravi čovjeka.
Šta je njemu?
I reci mu da zna,
(i reci mu da zna)
Da kad već nije prošao bolje,
Mogao je proći i puno gore.
Bez obzira,
Pozdravi ga,
Bez obzira —
A zapravo
Baš me briga.
Zašto me ne podnosi tvoj tata?
Niko nije savršen.
Jako me nervira tvoj tata,
Jer volim da me vole.
I reci mu da zna,
(i reci mu da zna)
Da kad već nije prošao bolje,
Mogao je proći i puno gore.
Bez obzira,
Pozdravi ga,
Bez obzira —
A zapravo
Baš me briga.
O-o-o-o-o-o,
O-o-o-o-o-o,
O-o-o-o-o-o,
O-o-o-o-o-o.
Bez obzira,
Pozdravi ga,
Bez obzira —
A zapravo
Baš me briga.
Zašto me ne podnosi tvoj tata,
Zašto me ne podnosi tvoj tata !

(translation)

Introduce me to your old man
Come on, motherfucker.
Come on, let them invite me to lunch
Now on Sunday.
I won't even sip,
I won't even squirm,
I won't even swear,
I can do that too,
I won't burp even after a beer.
Why can't your dad put up with me,
Oh, why, his mother?
A suit doesn't make a man.
What's wrong with him?
And tell him he knows,
(and tell him he knows)
Yes, when it hasn't gone any better,
It could have gone much worse.
Regardless,
Say hello to him,
Regardless -
In fact
I do not care.
Why can't your dad put up with me?
Nobody is perfect.
I'm really annoyed by your dad,
Because I love to be loved.
And tell him he knows,
(and tell him he knows)
Yes, when it hasn't gone any better,
It could have gone much worse.
Regardless,
Say hello to him,
Regardless -
In fact
I do not care.
O-o-o-o-o-o,
O-o-o-o-o-o,
O-o-o-o-o-o,
O-o-o-o-o-o.
Regardless,
Say hello to him,
Regardless -
In fact
I do not care.
Why can't your dad put up with me,
Why can't your dad put up with me!
