The good news

Leticio was living for ten years with his wife, who he loved with the same intensity as the first day, or maybe even more, and with his mother in law, who he hated also with the same intensity as he was hating her for all these years, or maybe even more. The only reason why he didn't eject her from the house, or didn't take a more drastic measure, like boiling her in oil or throwing her from the balcony when the garbage truck passed, was the love he felt for his wife, who found unavoidable the duty of housing her poor sick mother. Besides, as the marriage, despite wishing it with zeal, hasn't achieved to have children, the wife, who didn't work, dedicated all her time to take care of her mother.
 
But one day the things showd signs of changing radically. Leticio arrived home, after an arduous day of work, and his wife welcomed him saying that she had to give him some news, good ones and bad ones.
—I'll start with the bad news —­she said—Leticio: mom died this afternoon.
Leticio ran to the bedroom of the old woman and saw that, indeed, she was stiff. Then he rant to play a hard rock album and started to dance frantically, yelling:
—Awesome! If these are the bad news, I can't imagine the good ones!
—The good news —said his wife— is that I will be mom.
Leticio jumped of joy again. It's been ten years he was wishing to have a child to cheer up the home, and now, without the mother in law annoying the whole day, that home would become a real paradise.
 
Well, next day, after the burial of his mother in law, Leticio went to work, and when he went out, before returning home, he went to buy baby clothes, to lift the mood of his wife who must have been heartbroken by the death of her mother. But when he arived home and went to the bedroom, where he thought that he would find his wife, he found out that the one awaiting was the old woman, his mother in law. And she was alive. He screamed horrified, and then the old woman said:
-Leticio, what happens? It's me, don't you recognize me? I'm your wife. I told you, don't you remember? I told you that I would be mom, and I didn't thought that it would happen too soon, but yes, it happened, Leticio, I am mom!

The bicycle

Where are you going so hurried, where are you going
with that car that spits so much garbage.
Where are you going so furious, where are you going
making so much noise you will make people crazy
This morning I'll take the bicycle and that's it.
 
The bicycle will survive a long time
when there are no more cars on Earth
The spokes of its wheels will light up
the floor without crossing with the sun rays.
The bicycle, the bicycle and of course the pump.
 
This morning I'll have a good time
because I'm gonna ride the bicycle.
This morning I'll have a good time
I'm gonna ride the bicycle and have a ride.
 
Bike riding, bike riding not only is
to try to postergate the commitments forever.
Don't leave me hanging don't keep talking
I won't let myself be passed by.
Come tomorrow, there will be croquets and bikes.
 
Where are you going so hurried, where are you going
with that car that spits so much garbage.
Where are you going so furious, where are you going
making so much noise you will make people crazy
This morning I'll take the bicycle and that's it.
 
This morning I'll have a good time
because I'm gonna ride the bicycle.
This morning I'll have a good time
I'm gonna ride the bicycle and have a ride.

Jonathan Harker

Jonathan Harker,
Jonathan Harker
said goodbye to his Mina,
of his boss in the office,
and he came out from the mist
of London on the way to the East,
where his new customer was living.
Jonathan Harker,
Jonathan Harker,
they sent him from London
to Transilvania, where
he had to make a deal with the Count Dracula.
 
It happens that the Count,
It happens that the Count
had already got accredited
eveery blood of the county
and behind a new market
he wanted to establish himself in the continent,
and he chose England to bite into.
Jonathan Harker,
Jonathan Harker,
made the process easier
and so the count, in a ship
went, plowing through the brave sea,
to set up the dominance of his shadowy poer,
thing that he achieved to do
not only with a patient
of the mental illness hospital,
but also with the pretty Mina,
Jonathan's girlfriend.
 
Jonathan Harker,
Jonathan Harker,
without dyeing much in red
his face with the anger
he went for the eye's blood
to see doctor Van Helsing, the expert
in sorting out this kind of injustices.
Abraham Van Helsing,
Abraham Van Helsing,
like the story emphasizes,
without making a fuss,
nailed the stake on Count Dracula.
But Van Helsing,
checked that Mina was,
also, contaminated,
and without a second thought,
healso did to her the favour
of setting her soul free and then
he also nailed her.

Interference

It's some kind of silenced sigh.
An orphan swirl of leaves with which to dance.
It's an emptyness full of its vacuity.
It's a stopped flame, a fire in captivity.
It's a breath that lost its source, it's breathing
and was left stuck in an air duct.
It's a voice that no longer has forces to sound.
A blow that can't find surfaces to mist.
It's an impulse that has no substance to impulse.
It's some kind of silence without stillness.
A movement that doesn't have speed nor slowness.
It's a dialogue without lines to pronounce.
It's an S without an ear inviting it to sigh
It's a melody that lost its notes
and these are the ones left by the pain of that others
that were left suspended forever.
It's an interference in the beat of my heart.

Da nebih postojala ova pesma

Imao sam pare mnogo, izgubio sam ih,
Imao sam posao, i to sam izgubio.
Imao sam ljubavi, ali ostavila mi je.
Nemam sreću nikako!
Nemam ni jednog dukata,
Nemam posao,
Nemam omiljenu devojku,
Nemam ništa generalno.
 
Da nebih postojala ova pesma,
Da nebih zoveli mi telefoni,
Da nebih mi zoveli moji drugovi,
Što bih sam radio tad?
Ne znam I niko ne zna,
Verovatno nebih sam preživeo.
 
Ko da sam nevreme,
Ali još uvek imam nadu u srcu svom.
I ovaj svet već jednom nemao nikakvog smisla za mene,
Dosta mo je da patim i tugujem!
Razvaliću su mi moji problemi,
I sve ide jedno pored druge ko na redu.
 

Imagine son

When your childhood fades, when your body grows,
when by talking incorrectly, you feel yourself cheeky,
when you're becoming independent, when you're working,
when for not being well dressed you feel yourself inhibited...
Imagine son, imagine...
 
When you admire the pockets of the others, when you feel yourself less,
when they abuse you one day, when they use you,
when you get excited one day, when you're getting married,
when in some brothel you waste your money...
Imagine son, imagine...
 
When a tango gets printed in your lips, when you're without a dime,
when for not having for a coat, you dream with a robbery,
when the tobacco wrinkles your voice, when you get thin,
when in the bed with a Mafalda she turns her back...
Imagine son, imagine...
 
When you earn the extra pay, when you're carried away,
when you make extra hours in the night, to buy a car,
when you're tired of fighting, when you're wore out,
when your dreams fall apart and your arms ache...
Imagine son, imagine...
 
When your look gets damped, when something in you dies,
when you sink in the glasses and cry your failures,
when someday you're remembering, when you're meditating,
when one day you say to your son 'Imagine son'
Imagine son, imagine...
Imagine son, imagine...

But how have you done?

I love you so much
like I´ve never loved in my life
and so deeply that I´m afraid of myself
because of this excessive love
that I feel for you now
 
I want you
with a new desire that torments me
sometimes I wonder, how it´s possible
that I should be sleeping and wake up
walk and have you always in front of me
in front of my eyes, in my thoughts
in every moment of my life
 
I need you
like the boat needs
the sea to be able to navigate
spring needs
the sun to be able to bloom
the butterfly needs the flower
a child with one hand needs the other hand to accompany it
a dog needs an owner
and the wind needs the kite to be able to fly
and I need you always close to me
in every moment of my life
 
But how have you done
that I fall in love so much, so much
I look myself in the mirror and I wonder
if that one there, it´s me
 
But how have you done
make from this my life something very yours
to transform time into a wait
for me to see you
 
There is no sense in my life
and more I think about it, it´s more a thread
between your hands
 
But how have you done
I don´t even know when you´ve started
I only know that in this my life
it´s never happened
 
First time that I say certainly
I love you so
la la la la la la
 
In front of my eyes, my thoughts
in every moment of this my life
always close to me
 
But how have you done
make from this my life something very yours
to transform time into a wait
to have you
 
First time that I say certainly
I love you so
 

Nijedna reč više

Kada kuvaš tvojim poljupcima moje ludilo
Nešto gori u mojoj sobi
Još jedna igra bez milosti tvoje nežnosti
Koja leti ka meni kao vetar sa balkona
 
Kada se skinu tvoje telo i osmeh
Sve lepo umire kada izađe sunce
Samo jedna poruka i hladna kafa na prazan stomak
I izvinjenje na sektretarici
Da mi kažeš da si načinila grešku
 
Ne želim više da mi kažeš danas nijednu reč
Možda je sutra jače bez tvoje ljubavi
Ne želim više tvoje laži, ni tvoje fiktivne lekcije
Iako te volim i krvarim od bola
Možda je sutra jače bez tvoje ljubavi
Bez tvoje ljubavi
 
I ako sudbina prođe kroz moja vrata
Ni razgovor nam neće dati vremena
Ako je moj sram umro od gorčine
Zvakaći svaku sekundu tvoje izdaje
 
Kad me život muči zbog sumnje
I nada siđe liftom
Ovaj bol neće imati kraja i neće lečiti
Jer sam se opkladio na ovu igru u srce
Jer sam izgubio u ovoj igri srce
 
Ne želim više da mi kažeš danas nijednu reč
Možda je sutra jače bez tvoje ljubavi
Ne želim više tvoje laži, ni tvoje fiktivne lekcije
Iako te volim i krvarim od bola
Možda je sutra jače bez tvoje ljubavi
Bez tvoje ljubavi
 
Kada kuvaš tvojim poljupcima moje ludilo
 

Bill

I always was an unfortunate. I always was an unfortunate.
And I never stopped worrying for being it to the limit
in the measure of my modest possibilities.
At least since I had acknowledged the Artigas' saying
according to which “the most unfortunate will be the most privileged.”
 
I never wanted to celebrate any joke.
I never wanted to celebrate any joke.
I knew that he who laughs last, laughs best.
And all my life I saved energies for this laughter to become,
at the end of the time, the most powerful and strident
that nobody could ever hear, or even imagine.
 
I always was in misery and I never stopped giving up
I never stopped giving up to that,
knowing that You had disposed that fate for me.
I never stopped going through the impulsiveness
of the employers to who, for just crusts of bread,
I worked day and night for fifty years.
 
Until my skin dried up. Until my skin dried up,
and my sweat glands wore out,
after an uninterrupted production through that half century.
I never believed I had the right to aspire
to a more prosperous existance on earth. Never. Never.
 
I always let myself be robbed. I let myself be hitted.
I let myself be cheated.
I let myself be humilliated. I let myself be swindled, insulted, slandered.
And I always drowned any hint of anger
that could grow in me, with the invocation
of Your well known promise about a heavenly reward.
 
And I always carried a thorough record.
And I always carried a thorough recordof all I've been through.
And as You are all-knowing, You will see that there isn't
in this paper I give to You, any episode
that I haven't lived painfully.
Check the bill many times You wish. My Lord.

Happy ending

This is a story with a happy ending
it's the story of my country
all begins when democracy
was no longer funny for reasons that you will find
detailed in some specialized manual
in not stopping of saying some things.
 
This is a story with a happy ending
I don't know why you laugh
it's true that when democracy
was interrupted, the police kidnapped people and tortured
by mutual agreement with the army they tortured
and kill, among other things.
 
But this is a story with a happy ending
is not that I add varnish
because democracy returned after
and then the army and the police understood that it was wrong
all that they were doing and they said that from now on
they wouldn't do those things.

This Devil's Not On My Level

Yesterday, I met this girl after a drink or two,
Nothing much to look at, and a piss-taker too.
We knocked back about ten shots but, after this,
I begin to dance the twist, and she dances like shit.
 
I reckon that this devil is just not on my level.(1)
I reckon that this devil is just not on my level.
 
Last weekend, a similar thing happened to me too:
Got to know this girl somewhere - forgot her name, mind you.
All in all, we drank around six bottles of 'Moet' full,
But she couldn't hold her drink, and puked under the table.
 
I reckon that this devil is just not on my level.
I reckon that this devil is just not on my level.
 
You can't argue with karma, bitch, how can you not scream,
Where science is meaningless, the doctors sit silently,
The kind of babe, at my level - where is she hiding?
In the future, I'll weakly settle, I'm better off wanking.
 
I reckon that this devil is just not on my level.
I reckon that this devil is just not on my level.
 

Rebel River

I threw your scarf into the river
To see it how was sinking.
It was the last memory
Of your tenderness that I had for you.
 
It was sinking slowly as your love,
But one day, the river finally...
 
... on the beach will be returned to me,
But I know very well that I'll never be able
To be happy without your happiness.
I shall remember you in my loneliness,
In the nest that remained without its ligh
When I understood you are not for me.

Bozicna Pesma

Bila je to noc pre Bozica
Kada su u celoj kuci
Svi bili naduvani
Cak i mis
Covek iz sudnice
A ja iz zatvora
Samo sam prihvatio da uzmem parce njenog repa
Kad odjednom, cuo sam takav zveket
Sapleo sam se na svoj kurac i razbio sam besiku
Sisao sam niz stepenice, i sta sam video?
Mali, debeli, crveni peder
Kako visi sa drveta
On je napunio carape
Dzointima i pivom
I jedan veliki, debeli, cupavi kurac
Za porodicnog pedera
To je kraj moje price
Smesno je bilo, zar ne?
 
(Refren)
Ona nije videla moju stvar iza tebe
Ostavicu te ovom privatnom detektivu
Bio sam tamo da im dam moj
Zima, zima, mama, fah
Recicu ovo, nadam se da te ovo nece uvrediti
Dosao sam do grizme
Dao sam im da me okuse
Dao sam tom prokletom majmunu malo zabave
Tvoj majmun moze da ostane sa mnom
Hajka mi je uzela mozak
Isti stari mamojebac mi je sisao kurac tog dana
On nikada nece zima zima
Uopste nece tog dana
Stvarno mi je muka od sve ove uzbudjenosti, da
Ali, on misli da je bolji od mene
Uma zooma nooga dunga
Mozes da mi sisas kurac ceo dan, jedan, dva, tri, cetri
Deda mraz moze da mi sisa kurac po ceo dan.
 
''When i'm layin'
I'm still tryin'
Concentratin'
On dyin' yeah'' - Layne Staley (1967-2002)

Happily

I remember when we played outside as little boys
I remember when we had fun without worries
Now my friends are walking around with ties around their necks
They probably grew up, they're not even saying hello to me anymore
 
I remember when we went to everywhere together as young boys
I remember when we drunk beer to the morning
Now we only take a sip of ale in restaurants
Then straight to home, we had fun, right?
 
I'm probably never gonna be an adult, not as I'd want that
I just want to have a good time
I'm probably never gonna be an adult, not as I'd want that
I just walk around happily¹
 
I'm probably never gonna be an adult, not as I'd want that
I just want to have a good time
I'm probably never gonna be an adult, not as I'd want that
I just walk around happily

Strangers in the day

Strangers in the day,
of course there are.
In the past who would say,
that there had to have them in such quantity,
quantity, quantity, quantity.
 
Strangers in the day,
how strange, I don't know what are they.
If phantasmagorias,
if some plot
of a devilish imagination.
 
Strangers in the day.
Strangers up to date too (too, too),
bad dream of insomnia,
guards for the dream sleeps you standing.
sleeps you with a kick.
 
Strangers in the day
swarm in the firmament.
Let alone in the night.
Sinatra said it and he was right.
and he was, he was right.
 
Strangers of today,
I want to meet them.
The stories of my aunt
aren't enough and from other relativves
I didn't listen all that I wish to know.
 
Strangers in your house,
you were drinking the coffee.
You thought 'what's going on?'
It can't be! But it is.
You didn't eat your marseillan bread.
 
Strangers in the afternoon,
strangers in the evening.
Never come out late.
I prefer to avoid of having to fear
of having, of having to fear.
 
Strangers in the day.
Stars that come to the south sky.
And full of joy,
share their gusts of smoke and light
of smoke and remote light.
 
Strangers in the day.
And I'm not amazed that I,
don't know if I'd miss
the times in which everybody thought
they knew each other and take this, what do you say about him?
 
Strangers in the family.
It could happen to anybody.
The parents already said
that some strangers are sometimes
better than a relative.
 
Strangers at the park,
by the way, they're not shoeless (they're not, they're not),
you should be careful,
if you think of crossing.
If you think of crossing over there.
 
Lacking yearnings.
Strangers move around me
dressed in hope,
dancing the dance of their comptroller.
Dancing to the beat of the drum.
 
1
 
Strangers in the day.
There are, there are/Strangers in the day
there are everywhere./I want you to tell me.
The day is so stange./Strangers in the day and the night.
Say what day./Look at the night, the evening, the noon.
Strangers in the day.
No. Tell me if it's the afternoon./Tell me if it's night or day.
The day that is the day./How late that is the day. The day that didn't die.
That day that wasn't a day/No, yes.
would be a strange noon/Strangers in the noon.
stuck in the day's noon.
That today day./That day from now on
Ahead will be the day ahead./Ahead, good day.
No because is still today./Strangers go through the day today.
Still today. Still today./Still go throught the day.
Strangers in the day.
Strangers in the day.
Strangers in.
Strangers in.
Strangers in.

Stars

There were five brothers who said I want to go to the stars
and the parents said to them that they will maybe go as long as first
they finish their homework
 
The first didn't want any of that, just the stars
and he saw them very big when the father (pay attention)
gave him a good beating and kicked him out to the street
 
The second went to Hollywood to work as a waiter
in a bar where always were eating many of the greatest movie stars
like Linda Blair and Charles Bronson
 
The third became a sheriff and they placed him
a shining star on the lapel of his classic jacket and with time
he forgot about the stars and the planets
 
The fourth of the brothers studied to be an architect
and thanks to three bottles he achieved to be elected in the tender
for a project of a five stars hotel.
 
The littlest, the fifth was different, he couldn't, he didn't want,
he didn't know to live with false stars and today he just sended
a postcard from the Orion's Belt
 
There were five brothers who said I want to go to the stars

The internal action food processor

I bought a new food processsor. I already had one, but this one is better, because it's of internal action. You have to place it in the stomach. Bah! if you're a doctor and you have some skill you can place it yourself. The good thing about this processor is that you can stop cooking. Instead of preparing the foods, you eat straight up the ingredents. For example, you eat a pack of flour, then a butter bar, you eat half big spoon of baking powder, half glass of milk, a pack of cocoa powder and it feels like you're eating a chocolate cake.
 
At first you don't realize, but when the food reaches the stomach you understand it with full clarity.
 
Of course, you have to put on teeth in the stomach entrance, to be able to chew what is getting inside. That's a bit expensive, but it makes up for what you save in gas and electricity when you stop cooking. As soon as I can, I will do it. The doctor says that swallowing without chewing is not good. He's right, and the opposite is neither recomandable. But, placing a throat in the stomach would cost me an eye of the face, is it's not good for be, becuase I'm gonna need that eye there, close to the stomach, to see what I'm swallowing. That's why, instead of placing inside of me a synthetic throat, I'm going to transfer my stomach to my own throat. This also requires that, they sew my head over the shoulder blades, and that is a lot of stitches. About the aesthetic part, I'm not so worried. Some will say, 'that dude doesn't have a neck', or some will say, 'look, there goes a man with one single eye'.
 
But too bad for them. The ones who see me with an X ray device will realize that it isn't true: I keep all my organs, only that they're arranged in a more functional way.
 
With time, I'm thinking of making more improvements in my organism.
 
For examle, it's a shame that the brain is placed in a very exposed place like the head. I'm thinking of placing it near the stomach, for it to be more protected and also, it will control more efficiently my digestive process because it will be so near. These processes need a good supervision, at least during the first months after being modificated.
 
Besides, it's good that all the organs and the most important functions should be placed in the same zone. Yes, I will do it. It's like a strategic withdrawal of myself inside myself.
 
Some will say that I'm going to reduce myself, because some parts like the head, will remain as an ornament, being able to later become stunted and then to detach and fall like dry leaves, but all that is indifferent to me.
 
I'm not thinking of reducing myself: I'm thinking of compressing myself. I know that in my most intimate heart of hearts I'm irreductible, and any place is good for me to settle down. And if things work better that way, I'll laugh out loud about what people will think, even when that people won't har my laugh, because they will sound more precisely on the oesophagus sector and outskirts. But I don't wish to extend myself more in the description of my modifications program. It's long and besides is too wide and... I just wanted, for now, to recommend the purchase of the internal action food processor.

The twin

1st panel: Even before knowing the meaning of the word hate, I unconditionally hated Franz, my twin brother.
The scene shows two breastfed babies fighting over the mother breast.
 
2nd panel: When finally I became familiar with reading, the dictionary gave me an adequate denomination for my feelings.
The scene shows the narrator with his index finger pointing at the word Hate, in the middle of a page. At certain distance is seen the shape of Franz, identical to the narrator. Both are scholars.
 
3rd panel: Following studies of grammar, gave me the possibility of articulating the expression of my feelings in complete syntactic units.
The scene shows the narrator saying to his brother 'I hate you'.
 
4th panel: The happiness of my first love experiences, couldn't achieve to eclipse the innate loathing living in me.

I called her my eyes

they saw me in love with you and thought that I'm mad
some of them thought that I'm ignorant and blamed me
they want your address and asked about your name
I told them that I forgot it but I called you my eyes
 
she is like the mountain of Lebanon and her name is an honor
and there are no women after her cuz she is the queen
she is from Beirut and everybody wants her
and her home isn't the same as others , it is in my heart and viens
 
she has arts from the city..and some countryside habits
her hair..her body..her eyes are still natural
cute , wise and smart
if all the world is beside her..she won't go without me
 
she is from the South..she melts the rocks
she won all her life fights
she is actually from Bekaa..and her hug is breaking
she drank hyenas milk when she was young
 
she is kind and sensitive
she goes into people's souls in four seconds
her reaction is so high-class even if she is sad
her laugh is so attractive..and she is so affectionate
 
she is from the north..her family and uncles are good men
she is so beautiful like a high tree
her father is a sewer who wrapped her with honor
her brother are all army men in Lebanon
 

The cigar end collector

I'm a cigar end collector,
I collect the cigar ends thrown by the smokers who don't want anymore.
I'm a cigar end collector,

and that I'm gathering with the rest too.
 
I'm a cigar end collector,
but fortunately I am only from an intellectual point of view
I'm a cigar end collector,
in a figurated sense, I don't get hands nor feet dirty
Only the thought, only the thought
Only the thought, only the thought
 
I collect the left-overs,
after somebody thought about something that maybe forgot later.
I'm a cigar end collector,
I smoke the neurons that died and can't think,
I gather the ideas, that remained silenced by lack of voice,
of words or by the censorship of who thought about them.
 
I'm a cigar end collector,
I make songs with leftovers of used chords that are no longer useful.
I'm a cigar end collector,
and those songs that I write with the others ends
Are a good business, are a good business
Are a good business, are a good business
 
Because I register them
to my name and they can't say it's plagiarism for just a beat.
I'm a cigar end collector,
and to whoever blows this song I'll ask you please
if you don't mind, you keep the cigar end for me and so tomorrow it could be
that collecting it with another will outcome in a new song.

More Than Friends

I look at you, you look at me
We play we are more than friends
He who bets is risking
Who risks is dreaming
He who dreams is feeling
Who feels is living
 
So long ago I found
What I've dreamed
The game that one day
came true
I've played being happy
In this world of two
Till come the time
To advance in love
 
I look at you, you look at me
We play we are more than friends
Sometimes I hate you
He that hates is always who loves you more
You smile, I smile
I feel thousands of ticklings
whisper in your ear
I love you and I feel
That we are more than friends
Darling...
 
That is the most written story
Feel my heartbeats that beats more for you
The heavens and the stars drive you to me
I want you, I love you, you're already part of me
 
Always feel the heart
Now it beats more for you
Come on, give of yourself to me
And I'll hold you
Cupid smiled at seeing our illusion
What was just a game
Had changed into love
 
I look at you, you look at me
We play we are more than friends
Sometimes I hate you
He that hates is always who loves you more
You smile, I smile
I feel thousands of ticklings
whisper in your ear
I love you and I feel
That we are more than friends
Darling...
 
Never be afraid
I'll always be there
I'll be your protector, your faithful caretaker
Your great love
We play getting lost
Meeting the world
We'll be two in one
Our game, Our world
Give me your caresses, feel me into your soul
Cry out of joy, I want be with you
Will is power and love is dream
It'll be a feeling for eternity

The fakir

My grandmother told me
that there are guys in India
who can lay
over vertical nails
with the sharp end on top,
fakirs of the back
and besides there are other guys
who can walk
without problem over lots
of burning coals,
fakirs of the feet
 
I guess there are many
fakirs of other things,
I guess that there are
general fakirs
and a full body fakir,
a full body fakir,
you know that exists,
a guy in some lands
who maybe, maybe, maybe,
they leave him on the floor,
even if he doesn't care.
 
The guy I'm talking about
is no other but myself,
I myself am a fakir
but I'm different because
I'm a fakir of the mind,
fakir of the mind,
fakir, fakir of the soul,
I am since the moment
that is possible that next to me
they mess with the people
and I don't feel anything,
 
they can beat a guy,
they can electrocute him,
they can interrupt
everytime his normal
breathing or anything,
that I don't feel a thing,
I don't give three damns,
I can pretend
that it's a lie, that it's a lie
that that guy is on a trip
or that he doesn't exist,
 
maybe some people
will ask me how could I
ever achieved
to display such virtue,
such abilities,
you can believe me or not,
I say however
that I never followed
any special course
I didn't go to any training,
it must be since birth.

The stringer

While the pelican was fishing
while the bee was doing honey,
while the ant was carrying construction materials...
What was going on?
 
The sparrow was singing.
 
While the castor was doing dikes,
while the ox was plowing,
while the ovenbird was making its nest...
What was going on?
 
The sparrow was singing.
 
While the dog was watching,
while the cobra was dancing,
while the bacillus was synthesizing toxins...
What was going on? The sparrow was singing?
 
No. The pelican was fishing.
 
But while the marmot was sleeping
while the weed was growing,
while the spider was weaving...
What was happening? The sparrow was singing? The pelican was fishing?
 
No. The ant was singing and the mosquito was plowing.
 
And while the chicken was incubating,
while the cobra was cashing,
while the bacillus was staggering...
What was going on? The castor was doing dikes?
 
No sir.
 
The ovenbird was making its nest?
 
No. Neither.
 
So.. what was all about?
 
It was about that while the dog was scratching,
while the turkey was hiccupping,
while the cat was crouching,
while the chimp was chatting...
A CNN stringer
(who up to this point was always serious and efficient)
was taking note of everything
and was getting ready to tell it to Patricia Janiot,
that on any moment was going to call him
for him to pass his report
before two hundred millions of viewers.

The manager

He's a manager.
He has people who obey him.
He puts the penalties.
He has people who loathe him.
 
He gives four screams
and the factory shivers.
He sets the jobs.
He has people who suffers them.
 
He looks for who serve.
To more than one he ordered the sacking.
He says to his boss
'I don't want guys like that one'
 
The day they fail him,
he gets desperated and crazy.
He yells at them 'What is this,
a workshop or a kermesse?'
 
He's an employee too.
When he remembers it he gets sad.
He's a subordinate.
He has people who hinder him.
 
He's a manager.
A manager until he gets better.
He's a manager.
and the look is on his side.
 
He works willingly.
How good if the chief knew it.
He dreams to become a boss.
He asks his wife to pray.
 
He who always fought
for the production to come out well,
he of many wealth
thinks that some belongs to him.
 
He's a manager.
A manager though he doesn't look like it.
He serves to be a boss
If the chief could recognize it.
 
He asks to his mirror,
he begs it, to confess him
the destiny, the luck,
the future that he deserves.
 
The mirror says
that if it was who choses,
it would put him
in front for him to direct.
 
He's a manager.
He has people who obey him.
He puts the penalties.
He has people who loathe him.
 
He gives four screams
and the factory shivers.
The boss gives one
and he gets red, of shame.

I say your name to the wind

I say your name to the wind...
And the wind fills my eyes with dirt.
I say your name to the river...
And the river passes by.
I say your name then,
to a box full of eggs.
I say your name then,
to a semaphore.
I say your name anyway, to many things.
But none of theese actions represent for me,
any significant advantage and all that seems dumb for me.
So instead of keep saying your name,
I go from door to door with a suitcase,
selling encyclopedias, and I become a millionaire,
and then I die...
Like everybody.

The low

When I left the workplace on monday,
I wondered, where do I go? what do I do?
And as I was just with the payment
of two months ago that came delayed,
I said 'I'll go to the cinema', because if not,
The low, the low, I'd have the low.
The low, the low, I'd have the low. The low.
 
When the screen light died
and was reborn the real size
of the real world that was beside me.
Oh! I'm surrounded. I'm cornered.
I thought and thought of the green places
of the film. I was having a trip.
I was thinking, making believe. Because if not,
The low, the low, I'd have the low.
The low, the low, I'd have the low. The low.
 
I came upon while reaching the bus stop
with a guy who was a childhood friend.
'How do you do? How you're going?'
and we were walking, we're hanging on.
And the talking is over. Because if not,
The low, the low, I'd have the low.
The low, the low, I'd have the low. The low.
 
When I got home (and it's a saying
because in fact, it's more a niche),
I turned on the TV and if I didn't do it,
I would see it coming to me
the great dark stain, depression,
The low, the low, I call it the low.
The low, the low, I call it the low. The low.
 
A while after, tired and saturated,
I disconnected the junk devil
and I grabbed my old guitar.
I want a song to come out of my soul.
A song that says what I feel.
My suffering turned into a thought.
A song that transmits desolation.
The song of the low, the low of the song.
The song of the low, the low of the song. The low.
 
I tried and tried with notes, with chords.
I developed words, phrases, verses.
But it was all very lazy and dispersed.
It was a babble, more than sad, ugly.
So I threw the guitar because if not,
The low, the low, I'd be attacked by the low.
The low, the low, I'd be swalloed by the low. The low.
 
And this song that now I'm singing
I maybe better finish it.
Because I feel burning in my head
the thick smoke of this great sadness.
Sticky, heavy, oversweet, static and viscous sadness.
The pale, boys. The pale.
The low, the low, I call it the low.
The low, the low, here comes the low.
The low, the low, here buries me the low.
The low, the low, it looks like a coffin.

Sleep foal

The song I'll sing
is a simple lullaby
because it's not for a baby,
it's just for a foal.
 
Because the foals
like the children
have the right
that we express to them
our feelings.
 
Sleep foal because
I spend the night awake
and I'll bring you tomorrow
sixteen kilos of oats.
 
Because the foals
like the children
have the right
to be feeded
the best as possible.
 
I give you a sawdust,
sweet grass without thistles
for your mane to grow
until covering your eyes.
 
Because the foals
like the children
have the right
to not let be seen
the unpleasent.
 
When you grow more
I'll put you blinders,
with then you'll avoid
to get in the other's business.
 
Because the foals
like the children
have the right
to be educated
properly.
 
A good bit and a muzzle
will complete your etiquette,
when you become ruder:
you'll pull from my cart!
 
Because the foals
like the children
have the right
to be offered
a certain future.
 
Sleep foal because
the night is dark and cold,
sleep foal because
I ordered to do horseshoes.
 
Because the foals
like the children
have the right
to have someone
to take care of them.

The pally

I'm looking for new friendships.
The ones I had, got lost.
I have no friends left
neither in inland nor in Montevideo.
Who is suitable for the job?
 
I'm looking for new friendships.
The ones I had, I don't have anymore.
They went over, they expired,
they had expiring date.
God strike me if I lie.
 
We can be good friends
while it lasts, while we're winded.
Then we will go, you on one side,
me on other and move right along.
Life is long and awful.
 
I'm looking for new friendships.
The ones I had, wasted away.
The time wanted that the shortages
of the two parties prevail.
So, over and out.
 
Who wants it? I have vacancy.
It's very urgent. Life requests
to share what one lives
or the old thread gets rotten.
I look for who doesn't know me.
 
I go by the bars looking for friends.
The pally. The pally.
With the friends I had before,
it all went to waste, it all went to waste,
it all went to waste elbow to elbow.

Careful with the words

I went out for a walk and I entered in some kind of... I don't know how to call it. It wasn't a bar, neither a pub, nor an alehouse, nor a cafe, I don't know how to call it... maybe a tavern. And well, and approaching not to the counter but to the table, I didn't order a scottish but a whisky and I didn't order it on the rocks but with ice. And I remember that without getting close a girl, or I mean a woman, reduced the distance that kept her apart from me and not in the ear but to the ear, she said, or I mean she whispered 'I'm not for sale, but in turn of a certain ammount, not of gold but of its equivalent in money, you could obtain a good service not of myself, but of my body. I'm not asking you to answer but I wish to have a response from you.' 'Well you won't have it, but anyway I will answer. I know that it wouldn't cost me anything, but how much should I pay you?' I said, not in an onstentation mode but for satisfying, not her curiosity but her request. 'Not in this situation, nor in these particular circumstances. But in the present case -she said- you wouldn't have to pay me anything, though of course, it wouldn't be free.' My answer wasn't the following but anyway I said 'I'm not interested then. However I accept. Not with pleasure but willingly.' 'I can't say that I'm happy, though I feel happy' she said, not grabbing me by an arm but by the other arm. And without giving a single step nor going by foot, we didn't leave, but we moved walking until finding, not a hotel nor a motel nor a hostel, but an inn to which of course we never reached. However, without crossing the door we entered, and the manager without directing the word he said to us 'I have nothing to regret but... I'm sorry. There are no chambers available. But I can give you a room.' 'Don't tell us where it is, but indicate us how to get there.' requested, not my partner but the woman who was not with me but by my side. The guy didn't give use any indication but he showed us, not where the room was but in which place. And we didn't stay but we remained there, not all night long but until the next morning, not making love but... well, I hope you understood how is the technique of this.
