The sensible people
The sensible people aren't capable
Of killing chickens
Yet they are capable
Of eating chickens
The money smells of poverty and it smells
Of clothes of their body
That clothes
That after the rain dried upon the skin
Because they didn't have another
The money smells of poverty and it smells
Of clothes
That after the sweat wasn't washed
Because they didn't have another
'You'll win the bread with the sweat on your face'
Thusly it was imposed on us
And not:
'With the sweat of others you will win the bread.'
Oh salesmen of the temple
Oh builders
Of the great massive and weighty statues
Oh full of devotion and of approval
Forgive them Lord
Because they know what they do.

Someone Like Me
I want someone like me
Who will take me as I am
That needs affection and love
I want someone like me
Who will learn how to listen to me
That understands what my eyes say
That doesn't stay without a reason
I want someone who wants to travel in the sunset
Who will light in my sky all the stars of pleasure
I just want someone to follow me
To cry and smile wherever I go
Someone who doesn't like to lie, that doesn't even know how to pretend
Who really cares for me when I give in
But I just want someone to follow me
To cry and smile wherever I go
Someone who doesn't like to lie, that doesn't even know how to pretend
Who really cares for me when I give in
And say that this is love
I want someone like me
Someone who doesn't want to be right
And only try to have happiness in the heart
I want someone like me
Someone who will hug me when I come
Who will call me, eager to love me
A friend to rely on
Someone with whom I can share loneliness
But that doesn't pass all the time talking about the relation
I just want someone to follow me
To cry and smile wherever I go
Someone who doesn't like to lie, that doesn't even know how to pretend
Who really cares for me when I give in
But I just want someone to follow me
To cry and smile wherever I go
Someone who doesn't like to lie, that doesn't even know how to pretend
Who really cares for me when I give in
And say that this is love
