Lyrics of Ja luzer? - Đorđe Balašević

Ja luzer? (original)

Rođen pod sretnom zvezdom magičnom,
Ali nad ovom zemljom generalno tragičnom,
Čemu sam blizi — triput pogađaj.
Neko nad nama vrši oglede.
Hajde, usudi se i pogledaj u poglede,
Ovde je osmeh — događaj.
U šupak kosmosa smo upali.
Mnogi su domobranci zauvek prolupali.
Caruje virus apatije.
Al' ti na mene stavi upitnik,
Pa rekni: dal' ti bata deluje k’o gubitnik?
Ma nema šanse, šta ti je?
Ja nisam luzer, o naprotiv, meni je osmeh lajt-motiv.
Ja nisam luzer, ja imam nas, a za svet — ko te pita?
Ja nisam čedo proseka, mene ne vuče oseka.
S tobom je tretman poseban, svaki je dan dolče vita,
I svud je Hollywood.
Namlatim mesečno šest maraka,
Bude za cipovku i frtalj kile čvaraka.
Ološ mi veze ometa.
Ali kad dođem kući, tu si ti.
E, tu će tvrđavicu malo teže srušiti
— to im je izvan dometa.
Ja nisam luzer…

(translation)

Born under a lucky magic star,
But over this generally tragic country,
What I'm close to - guess three times.
Someone is inspecting us.
Come on, dare and look at the looks,
Here is a smile - an event.
We fell into the asshole of space.
Many home guards have gone crazy forever.
The virus of apathy reigns.
But you put a question mark on me,
So say: does your dad act like a loser?
No way, what's wrong with you?
I am not a loser, on the contrary, a smile is a light motive for me.
I am not a loser, I have us, and for the world - who asks you?
I'm not a child of the average, I'm not drawn to the ebb.
With you the treatment is special, every day is dolce vita,
And Hollywood is everywhere.
I earn six marks a month,
Bude for chips and frtalj hernia cracklings.
The scum is interfering with my connections.
But when I get home, there you are.
Well, it will be a little harder to demolish that fortress
- It's out of their reach.
I'm not a loser…
