Stari Orkestar - Đorđe Balašević

Taj orkestar stari, nema pojma u stvari

I večito peva svoje «tra-la-la-la»

I što da se menja, kad su uslovi čisti:

Prvi su i jedini su na Top-listi

Taj orkestar stari, dugo pali i žari

Uz evergreen temu zvanu «tra-la-la-la»

I što da se vežba, da se proširi lager

Za publiku je dosta jedan jedini šlager!

I samo ja, pa ja

O draga gospoja

O tako pametan

I tako postojan

I ja ću da vam sviram

A vi plešite

U krug i pogled dole

I ne grešite

Taj orkestar stari, dobro poznaje stvari

Čim traje toliko uz «tra-la-la-la»!

Da stigneš do neba, treba znanja i truda

A niko od nas za to nema … snage

Taj orkestar stari, audicije kvari

Jer pevaju neki svoje «tra-la-la-la»

Al' brzo se svaki anti-talenat smiri

Jer slučajno su stari momci vrhovni žiri

Ovi što gude se najviše trude

Al' već u refrenu sve drukčije bude

Dominiraju trube

Koriste bubnjeve bolje od grupa

I svima pokazuju kako se lupa

Nikad ritam ne gube

Taj orkestar stari, ima izvesne čari

Al' već se pevuši novo «tra-la-la-la»

I što više slušam, sve sam više tog dojma

Da nikad nisu imali pojma, pojma!

That orchestra is old, no idea

And he sings his "tra-la-la-la" forever

And what to change, when the conditions are clean:

They are the first and only ones on the Top List

That orchestra is old, burning and glowing for a long time

With an evergreen theme called "tra-la-la-la"

And what to practice, to expand the camp

One hit is enough for the audience!

And just me, well me

Oh dear lady

Oh so smart

And so persistent

I'll play for you too

And you dance

In a circle and look down

And make no mistake

That orchestra is old, he knows things well

As soon as it lasts so long with "tra-la-la-la"!

It takes knowledge and effort to get to heaven

And none of us have the strength to do that

That orchestra is old, auditions are ruining it

Because some sing their "tra-la-la-la"

But quickly every anti-talent calmed down

Because by chance the old guys are the top jury

Those who gossip work hardest

But everything will be different in the refrain

Trumpets dominate

They use drums better than groups

And they show everyone how to beat

They never lose rhythm

That orchestra is old, it has certain charms

But the new "tra-la-la-la" is already being sung

And the more I listen, the more I get that impression

That they never had a clue, a clue!
