Bankina (feat. Aca Lukas)
Jelena Karleusa · Other Songs - Jelena Karleusa
slab sam analgetik ali bol sam jak
Izmedju da budem ne znam ja
il' sam sreca ili nesreca
Tvoje sam bogatstvo i tvoj bankrot sam
alavi zelenas i tvoj duznik sam
Izmedju da budem ne znam ja
ili sam ti sreca ili nesreca
Ti si moj problem, moje resenje
mozda smo zato zajedno
jer sve si mi to
Ref.
Sa mnom si doziveo kolaps a i trans
uzalud otvaram nocu pasijans
ime mi je krajnost, ljubav je slucajnost
ponekad si tu jedini moj gost
I kada se grizemo ili lizemo
mi na istu tacku uvek stizemo
i kad smo jednina i kad smo mnozina
uvek sam tvoj ambis a ti moja si bankina
Bankina
Ref. 2x
Bankina
A love that is both danger and protection
“Bankina” (“Roadside Shoulder”) uses a road-edge image to describe a relationship that is both dangerous and sustaining. In the duet, Jelena Karleuša and Aca Lukas trade the roles of the person who threatens to send the other over the edge and the one who might keep them from falling. The metaphor gives a volatile love story a concrete, distinctly regional image.
Released on June 28, 2017, the single was composed by Bojan Vasić with lyrics by Marina Tucaković. The pairing brings Karleuša's high-gloss pop delivery together with Lukas's folk-pop voice, creating a dialogue rather than a solo confession. The song arrived in the same period as Karleuša's Azis collaboration, making the two releases part of a particularly visible run of duets.
No reliable chart peak is widely reported for “Bankina.” Its official television performance and digital catalogues document the release, while the songwriter credits point to a crafted, metaphor-driven lyric. The song's central image keeps its emotional stakes clear: in a turbulent relationship, the same person can feel like both the danger and the last barrier against it.
