Lyrics:

A famous director is in our city,

Shooting a new film, they say it’ll be good.

Foreign actors, parties and money,

No doubt he’ll take an Oscar.

He’ll also need a lot of extras

For epic and grandiose scenes.

Even if they’re saying that he pays well,

There will not, will not be me.

 

I will not be a Kraut, in a subsidized film,

I will not be an extra, in life and in the cinema.

I will not be a Kraut, a Kraut I will not be.

There is no God!

 

A famous director is in our city,

Shooting a new film, they say it’ll be good.

Foreign actors, parties and money,

No doubt he’ll take an Oscar.

He’ll also need a lot of extras

For epic and grandiose scenes.

Even if they’re saying that he pays well,

There will not, will not be me.

 

I don’t want to be an occupier,

There’s some devil in my psyche.

I will not be a Kraut,

When I can’t be Prle or Tihi.

 

I will not be a Kraut, a Kraut I will not be.

 

Leading actors would want to be on the right side,

Me be a Kraut, and them the Partisans?

 

Boris T. Ćorović
