about

Just like the first song in the album, this one is about the repetition
of everything. Those who are on top/in charge are the ones taking
away/snatching from those who are subordinated. The downside of
any system is in the people themselves - when human greed for

power/wealth becomes insatiable.

lyrics

STARI SOLDAT PUTOM GRE
Stari soldat putom gre, čik pobere, dobar je.
Vidil ga je kapetan, pa mu ga zeme (i)z zuba van.
Mladi soldat putom gre, čik pobere, dobar je.
Vidil ga je kapetan pa mu ga zeme (i)z zuba van.
Stari soldat putom gre, mladi soldat putom gre,
Stari soldat putom gre, mladi soldat opet gre,
I opet gre,I opet gre,I opet gre…

The old soldier is walking along the road. He picks up a cigarette butt, it's a good one. The captain
sees him and snatches the butt from mouth. The young soldier is walking along the road. He picks up
a cigarette butt, it's a good one. The captain sees him and snatches the butt from his mouth. The old
soldier is walking along the road. The young soldier is walking along the road again, and he will be

going again, and again, and again…
