http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vz41ekCXlhgI knew exactly what it was even before the page loaded :)
For lurkers, the first two lines are
"Neko mi je ukrao biciklo
jer ga nisam dobro vezo lancom"
(someone stole my bicyclo
for I haven't tied it well with chain)
And as for why "bicyclo" - well, we still haven't decided the gender. I say "bicikl" (male), but I have an uncle a bit more south who says "bicikla" (female), and Bora here sings "biciklo" (neuter). And let's not forget our Hungarians who still often say "bicikli". And... Srdjan mentions biciklu (accusative case of the female variant), the song has it as neuter, and my bicikl is male. My mother-in-law has one of a fifth kind, though :).
>BTW strange, but I have seen only one black guy here on UT in last 10 years ...
There were a few - I have actually met one, and worked with another, but yes, one would expect to see more of them. And this other guy said there are parts of DC where he may not want to go, because he's "wrong kind of black". Last time I heard of him, he was making $120K... seven years ago.
