Nije ti otac kriv
Galija · Other Songs - Galija
ne cenis to, ne, nisi
vec podigni rep
dobra sminka i miris nje
svilen ves i tako to
Digni svoj rep, ne s njom
kad trazis tako malo
izgubices sve
njen ti osmeh citav svet
njhena suza i kokos
Digni svoj rep, ne s njom
ja znam da ne cenis to
ona bi cele noci
da budes njen dzokej
nema ljubav, sta bi jos
nema nesto i tako to
digni svoj rep
Nije ti otac kriv
niti je njemu neko kriv
a nesto mi poznat njegov stari refren
ne, ne, ne cuj to
Nije ti otac kriv

The track exemplifies the band's signature fusion of hard rock with poetic introspection, addressing themes of familial conflict and personal struggle that resonated deeply across the Balkans. Released during a period of intense political and social upheaval, the song became a cultural touchstone, reflecting the collective angst of a generation seeking identity amidst changing landscapes. Its enduring power lies in its unapologetic honesty and driving musical energy, cementing Galija's legacy as the region's most influential rock act. The recording remains a pivotal work in the canon of post-war Balkan music, frequently cited for its ability to translate complex interpersonal drama into a universally relatable sonic experience.
