Pesme bratstva, detinjstva & potomstva: Antologija ex YU rok poezije 1967 - 2007 (trans. Songs of Brotherhood, Childhood & Offspring: Anthology of Ex YU Rock Poetry 1967 - 2007) is a book by Serbian author, journalist and music critic Petar Janjatović. Published in 2008, the book is the second, expanded edition of Janjatović's 1993 book Pesme bratstva & detinjstva: Antologija rok poezije SFR Jugoslavije 1967 - 1991 (Songs of Brotherhood & Childhood: Anthology of Rock Poetry in SFR Yugoslavia 1967 - 1991).

He states that the appearance of artistic lyrics matches the appearance of the first full-length rock album in Yugoslavia, Grupa 220's Naši dani (Our Days), but that during the 1960s and early 1970s there was a small number of artists among rock lyricists. By Janjatović's words, it were Yugoslav punk rock and Yugoslav new wave acts that made artistic rock lyrics imperative.
