"Koza nostra" (trans. "Cosa Nostra", also a word play, with "Koza" meaning goat in Serbian) is the tenth studio album from influential Serbian and former Yugoslav rock band Riblja Čorba.

"Koza nostra" is the first studio album recorded with guitarist Zoran Ilić. The album is perhaps most memorable for its tracks "Al Kapone" and "Gde si u ovom glupom hotelu". Album featured a cover of Chuck Berry's song "Memphis, Tennessee", a punk rock "Deca" and "Tito je vaš" which directly criticized Josip Broz Tito who was, ten years after his death, still untouchable in Yugoslavia.

"Al Kapone" featured Branimir Štulić and Azra members on backing vocals. "Gde si u ovom glupom hotelu" featured former Suncokret members Gorica Popović, Snežana Jandrlić and Biljana Krstić on backing vocals. Keyboard was played by Saša Lokner.
