Translation of the song lyrics Nema Više Benda Kao Neoplanti - Đorđe Balašević

Nema Više Benda Kao Neoplanti (original)

Nema više benda kao Neoplanti.
To je bilo da se priča, da se pamti.
Da smo tad ovo znali, svemu bi odoleli.
Pratili me posle neki muzikanti,
tezgaroši, manje-više kalkulanti,
al brak iz računa, nismo se mi voleli.
O, dobri dani, best of all,
kad svirao se rock and roll,
i kad su čak i stari konobari plesali.
I ljuljao se celi svet,
sve pesme znali napamet.
Danas me cene važni krugovi,
a gde su sada moji drugovi.
Gde su sada moji drugovi?
Nema više benda kao Neoplanti
to je bilo da se priča, da se pamti
slavna vremena davno iza nas
Nema više fudbalice posle probe
preferansa u tišini garderobe
kako se fajrunt bliži, sve to prima drugi tok.
Sve se manje čuju one prave psovke,
sve je manje one prave viljamovke
i sve se češće čuje «Meni jedan gusti sok».
O, dobri dani, best of all,
kad svirao se rock and roll,
i kad su čak i stari konobari plesali.
I ljuljao se celi svet,
sve pesme znali napamet.
Danas me cene važni krugovi,
a gde su sada moji drugovi.
Gde su sada moji drugovi?
Nek ide život, nek ide život
i nek se pleše za sve to što beše.
Nek ide život, nek ide život
i nek se pleše za sve to što beše…

(translation)

No more bands like Neoplanti.
It was to talk, to be remembered.
If we had known this then, we would have resisted everything.
I was followed by some musicians,
counters, more or less calculators,
but marriage out of account, we didn't love each other.
Oh, good days, best of all,
when rock and roll was played,
and when even the old waiters danced.
And the whole world was rocking,
they knew all the songs by heart.
Today I am valued by important circles,
and where are my friends now.
Where are my friends now?
No more bands like Neoplanti
it was to talk, to be remembered
glorious times long behind us
No more football after rehearsal
preference in the silence of the wardrobe
as the fortune draws nearer, it all receives another stream.
Less and less real swearing is heard,
there are fewer and fewer real williams
and "One thick juice to me" is heard more and more often.
Oh, good days, best of all,
when rock and roll was played,
and when even the old waiters danced.
And the whole world was rocking,
they knew all the songs by heart.
Today I am valued by important circles,
and where are my friends now.
Where are my friends now?
Let life go, let life go
and let him dance for all that was.
Let life go, let life go
and let him dance for all that was…
