U kozi krokodila

Bajaga · Other Songs - Bajaga

Ti si zena iz zemlje
u kojoj caruje strast
te ljude opija vino
ljubavne pesme i vlast

Kada prolazis gradom
ulice gledas u lice
ti si zena iz zemlje
koju napustaju ptice

A svoje srce krijes
u kozi krokodila
i gledas me u lice
sa ocima civila

Ti si zena iz snova
sto zemlju gazi bez stida
a ja sam severni vetar
koji te pogledom skida

Ti svoje srce krijes
u kozi krokodila
i gledas me u lice
sa ocima civila
