Ballad of Leon Trotsky

Let me sing a ballad
about Trotsky the Exile1:
The one murdered at his house,
and the one who was brutally wrapped.
 
He was expelled from his country,
And he wandered around many countries.
While combatting oppression,
he was always under threat.
 
He left for France and Turkey,
seeking asylum and rest...
But his most jealous enemy followed him everywhere.
 
And the Mexican government,
with a sacred gesture,
Gave the Exile2 his asylum
with a proper protection.
 
With a police at his house
Always being at watch
Because an assault was coming
To disturb his grand intentions.
 
An Aragonese foreigner,
addicted to axes3,
wanted to get the Exile's trust,
so he could go to Coyuacán4.
 
Stalin and the assassin -
a natural partnership!
And their master crime
has reached their destination.
 
And when he gained his trust,
With a swift and strong blow,
With an ice axe he had with him
He had fulfilled his orders.
 
And after a quick moment,
the Exile was murdered.
And thus Destiny
has hit it's score.
 
And to the Green Cross 5
Trotsky was taken.
Where the doctors
pretended trying to save his life.
 
And the Exile's fighting body,
Descended to the raw earth.
And his body will be lovingly
protected without any spite.
 
  • 1. Lev Davidovich Trotsky was a Russian revolutionary and Old Guard Bolshevik, who was one of the main contenders for power in the Soviet Union, together with Old Guards Zinoviev and Kamenev and newcomer Stalin.
    After Stalin took power in the Soviet Union, Trotsky was exiled and moved accross the world: from Norway to Turkey, then France and he ended up in Mexico, where he was, in 1940, assassinated on orders of Stalin and carried out by the NKVD
    He founded Trotskyism: a far-left communist ideology that promotes permanent revolution.
  • 2. I used the word 'Exile' to describe Trotsky in this translation, even when the singer calls him the 'leader'
  • 3. This refers to NKVD agent Ramón Mercader, who was the assassin of Trotsky. He was born in Barcelona, so singer refers to him as Aragonese.
    'Addicted to axes' may sound weird, but I couldn't find a proper translation for 'horganza', so I used the word axe, as that was the weapon Mercader killed Trotsky with
  • 4. This was Trotsky's place of residence.
  • 5. Cruz Verde is the national healthcare service of Mexico in the modern times ( I'm not sure about this, it just looks like this ), idk if it was that back in the day. If you know, write in the comments.

If children would rule the world





I.went for a walk today
Through friendly streets
The friendly streets of my city
Everyone turns to look at me
To look at me curiously
 

Just one small, playful, friendly child
Small and mischievous
Looked at me with trust
He was singing and laughing as he played
Laughing and playing as I walked away
 

If children would rule the world
And instead of war, they would order play
Men would have genuine smiles
And every street would be filled with singing
 

If children would rule the world
And instead of war, they would order play
Men would have genuine smiles
And every street would be filled with singing
 

Everyone turns to look at me
To look at me curiously
People are ready to judge me when I smile
When I smile, they look at me with malice
 

Just one small, playful, friendly child
Small and mischievous
Looked at me with trust
He was singing and laughing as he played
Laughing and playing as I walked away
 

If children would rule the world
And instead of war, they would order play
Men would have genuine smiles
And every street would be filled with singing
 

If children would rule the world
And instead of war, they would order play
Men would have genuine smiles
And every street would be filled with singing

Porncraving





It is known everywhere
The girls of Venus
The girls of Venus are infected by Venereal Diseases
In fact no one goes to the primaries/chief physicians to vote,
Anyone with problems of the urinary tract
But I am the chairman
And I don´t care about nothing
And further
I started again with HIV-love
And I don´t understand why you are upset
you have no reason
If I told you that the result is positive, really
You are all the porn I need
You are all the porn I need
You are all the porn I need
All the porn
Now I'm taking this sick word
And spread it to the whole electorate
This is a less invasive method
I will sit down in the armchair of a television talk show
And in a second I'll explain my program to you, so
Now I'm buying the TV, the love, newspapers and the Voodoo guru and I think
That this freedom is a little simple
As news, really
You are all the porn I need
You are all the porn I need
You are all the porn I need
You are all the porn I need
You are all the porn I need
You are all the porn I need
All the porn
All the porn
All the porn
And with a sick glow on the face
Saying: 'It's crazy not to carry this cross
Everyone thinks so much of themselves
So let it be, love,
And tell me, what am I to you?
What am I to you?

Beyond (Reprise)





And we will follow our star together
We will surge like a tide
The whole world is our home
We’ll go all the way
To the beginning of all beginnings
Where our very first dock remained
From the depths as one we will rise
We will follow the star

Even though I don't tell you





If I make it to stay quiet this time
and enjoy this moment with nothing that interrupts us
If nobody's looking for us
I can stand up on you
You keep so stable when doubts come to me
 

Where are you
I think about what you must be doing
I set a time-out every time
you leave
I can pretend I entertain myself
and I don't miss you
 

I love you so much and I know
sometimes I forget
but I can't lose
what life gives me
And I don't know what to answer
when you don't look at me
but you know I'm ok
Even though I don't tell you
 

You float on the room where you're in
And I'm trying to catch you, though you say that in every one of your lives,
you would choose me
How many mouths there are that want to eat
If they just knew what you can do when everything is over
 

Where are you
I think about what you must be doing
I set a time-out every time
you leave
I can pretend I entertain myself
and I don't miss you
 

I love you so much and I know
sometimes I forget
but I can't lose
what life gives me
And I don't know what to answer
when you don't look at me
but you know I'm ok
Even though I don't tell you
 

Even though I don't tell you
Even though everything's over
Even though I don't tell you
This may end well
Even though I don't tell you
even though everything's over
Even though I don't tell you
this may end well
 

I love you so much and I know
sometimes I forget
but I can't lose
what life gives me
And I don't know what to answer
when you don't look at me
but you know I'm ok
Even though I don't tell you
