Music and lyrics

"Nigde ništa nemam" is a song about a man who has nothing to his name, but would do it again if he could. The original version starts with a drumroll, then guitars which then transitions to the song itself which is typical for an opening track. Like most songs on the album, a solo is played after the second (in this case, third) refrain of the chorus.

While the 1994 remains mostly the same, it has a few differences. Unlike the 1990 version, the 1994 version would heavily emphasize electronic instruments rather than real ones, which was typical for SuperTon at the time. In the original version, the song starts off with the chorus then the verse whereas the 1994 version starts with the verse. The second and third verses are rearranged, with the lyrics "Svi mi kažu da sam ja/čovek koji propada/" changed to "Svi mi kažu da sam ja/lutalica večita/". The chorus changes from "Nigde ništa nemam/sve sam popijo/da još jedan život živim/isto bih ga živeo/" to "Nigde ništa nemam/sve sam propijo/da još jedan život imam/isto bih ga živeo". These changes could be due to the fact that Cvetin Todorović wrote this version instead of Munib Alić who wrote the original.

Lyrics

Original version:

Lyrics:

Nigde ništa nemam
sve sam popijo
da još jedan život živim
isto bih ga živeo

Svi mi kažu da sam ja
lutalica večita
šta ja mogu, šta je tu je
kad mi drugi sreću kuje

Nigde ništa nemam
sve sam popijo
da još jedan život živim
isto bih ga živeo

Svi mi kažu da sam ja
čovek koji propada
neka ide kud je pošlo
kad je srce sreću prošlo

Nigde ništa nemam
sve sam popijo
da još jedan život živim
isto bih ga živeo

Prokockao sam kažu ja
oba deo života
ali meni žao nije
i ovako lepo mi je

Nigde ništa nemam
sve sam popijo
da još jedan život živim
isto bih ga živeo

Lyrics:

Nigde ništa nemam

isto bih ga živeo

Prokockao sam kažu ja

Nigde ništa nemam
sve sam propijo
da još jedan život imam
isto bih ga živeo

Svi mi kažu da sam ja
lutalica večita
neka ide kud je pošlo
kad je srce sreću prošlo

Nigde ništa nemam
sve sam propijo
da još jedan život imam
isto bih ga živeo
