Twenty thousand leagues (under the seas)

The first was the Cape of Good Hope
Closed by law and special decree
So that the Pacific waves would quit
Bastardizing that other sea.
 
Next it was the turn of Panama and Suez
And then of the Bosporus and Gibraltar:
Every last wave demanded
Respect for its sovereign independence
 
No more exchanges of water and fish
No more round-the-world trips in sailing ships
All canals were closed
To the passage of foreign waves
 
Thus for a time the waters of all
The planet's seas became calm again
But before long it began again: a wave said
That it was time to end it all
 
And so it happened that one day in our local sea
The Ionian demanded to be alone
And so did the Tyrrhenian and the Sicilian Strait
And the Adriatic forthwith
 
In short, 'let no one mix with anyone else'
Thundered the waters of the shallows
'Let each remain anchored in place
And bathe only the sands of her birth.'
 
It seemed to be over but it was only the beginning
And it was truly ugly to see
In what once was a vast expanse
The gashes of trenches rending the sea
 
It was only the beginning, as we said
Because now the secessionist fever
Was sickening every single shore
And nothing and no one managed to say 'enough'
 
And thus from Trieste to the tip of Apulia
From Sicily to the Italian Riviera
Every last tiny creek demanded
Independence and not in name only
 
But the matter went shabby
When they seized each other drop by drop
And, each eyeing her neighbor, said
'Go away or I'll break your face'
 
The sea was soon an assemblage of dewdrops
Of no use to fish or any creature
Tuna, anchovies, and swordfish died
Deep-sea vessels stayed on dry land
 
And then one day or (I'm not sure) one night
Something even stranger happened
Do you know the formula H2O?
Yes, the one for water that we all know
 
Well, hydrogen took exception
And claimed to have a majority
And thus the sovereign right
To pursue now-hallowed independence
 
A kind of wind blew, an infinite gust
And the water of the seas vaporized into the sky
There remained a desert of salt and granite
But dark and deep, blacker than black

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
