Lyrics of Glavna Ptica (Skrati Svoj Dugački Jezik) - Idoli

Glavna Ptica (Skrati Svoj Dugački Jezik) (original)

Tvoje reči su sada tek nešto drugo
Kao da ih lako iz noći u noć kradu
Dolazi sezona perja i glavna ptica
Gleda sa svog balkona na barikadu
U ponoć menjamo stražu
Znam, tvoje oči su sive
U svakom trenu si tu
Dok suza se sliva niz lice, ti znaš da bledim
Tvoje reči su tada vrlo nežne
Kažu: mislim da si zauvek kao jeka
Seti se mog lepog lica, slušaj plotune
Govoriš pogrešne stvari
Skrati svoj dugački jezik
Nije vreme za strah

(translation)

Your words are just something else now
It's as if they steal them easily from night to night
The season of feathers and the main bird is coming
He is looking at the barricade from his balcony
We change the guard at midnight
I know, your eyes are gray
You are here at all times
As a tear runs down your face, you know I'm fading
Your words are very gentle then
They say: I think you are forever like an echo
Remember my beautiful face, listen to the platoons
You say the wrong things
Shorten your long tongue
This is not a time for fear
