The Quicksands

How nice, when a-he marries
how sad, when a-she marries,
a rubber puck hits into the boards,
goals are lacking, no-one passes.
In the ruin of facades, hidden behind a scaffold,
former young for quarter and food,
we drag through time, half suffocated
in the quicksands of provincial manners.
 
They slammed the door? We sneak through the back,
cursed into the Book of forests, waters and slopes,
a packed mouth announces, behind the shop-window,
that the end of dreams is the end of love-making.
A rubber puck hits into the boards,
if the pocket is empty, no-one gives away,
no, it is not pretty, when a-he marries,
no, it is not sad, when a-she marries.
 
To be a lousy actor- what's more in this world:
if lacking drama, a small operetta will do
a rubber puck hits into the boards,
can't be done from the side - proceed then from the middle
A Hussite berates armoured vehicles
and time asks for many a head,
if you're left without it - what's the brains for
in the quicksands of provincial manners?
 
The scaffold hides paranoia of the facades,
babbling of fools instead of a dialogue,
until you give out in peace, nothing's left but to drink
to drown the rest of courage and defiance.
You fill in your name, place of birth
and a number of figures, the kind one does not admit to
so it goes, when a-he marries,
so it goes, when a-she marries.
 
From school, children bring report cards,
wonder if they suspect, what is it you dream about,
when at night you do the ironing, growing old over a baking tray?
About a bit of love, the kind one does not get.
You buy bread, an after-shave
and denounce faith, the kind one does not hold
so it goes, when a-he marries,
so it goes, when a-she marries.
 
Silence hides the paranoia of living,
you keep quiet and decorate windows for the celebration,
more than soul, a living is worth
in the quicksands of provincial manners.
From wild passion, a lukewarm caress
muteness falls on the frozen water,
a rubber puck hits into the boards
and just a few weeks left until divorce.

Sledhillman





There's a competition on sled hill
I climb up there right now
I got a cool sled as christmas present
 

The team of pigs gathers
They pack themselves to their sleighs
And oinks something in piggerish
 

'The last one in finish is a sissy piggy!'
They mock me from their spots
'Give way pig, this turn is quick!'
I shout and push myself going
 

Check me out, I'm a sledhillman!
I speed to goal, forehead in sweat
Will take the victory and who knows
I get to newspapers and 10pm news
 

I slide with full speed
And fall over: I'm on my nose
I decide to only smile in rock style
 

All the pigs pass me
And splash snow on me
When I turn the sled over on a bump
 

'The last one in finish is a sissy piggy!'
The last of them announces
'Give way pig, this turn is quick!'
My speed grows again
 

Check me out, I'm a sledhillman!
I speed to goal, forehead in sweat
Will take the victory and who knows
I get to newspapers and 10pm news
 

Check me out, I'm a sledhillman!
I speed to goal, forehead in sweat
Will take the victory and who knows
I get to newspapers and 10pm news
 

'The last one in finish is a sissy piggy!'
I'm getting enough about pig choir
'Give way pig, this turn is quick!'
My sled accelerates to lead position
 

Check me out, I'm a sledhillman!
I speed to goal, forehead in sweat
Will take the victory and who knows
I get to newspapers and 10pm news
 

Check me out, I'm a sledhillman!
I speed to goal, forehead in sweat
Will take the victory and who knows
I get to newspapers and 10pm news
And get my name to the trophy

Vanessa's Song





I doubt there's a more beautiful bride than me
So far I am enjoying what has happened to me
Soon I'll have the mermaid and the ocean will be mine!

Neverending Summer





You're there, on top of the hill
White teeth peek through
You called me over
All I could hear, was a chorus of cicadas
 

You're there, on top of the hill
Eyes like marbles
You disgraced me
Soft clouds, floated past
 

A summer that's yet to end
You were the most
Beautiful, that summer
 

You're there, on top of the hill
A half-hearted hoarse voice
Stabs me
Even the sun, froze over
 

A dream that's yet to end
Lost its colour
And the form of our love, became blurry
 

A summer that's yet to end
On our necks
Chains of love are tied
 

A dream that's yet to end
You catch my eye
And I'm destroyed by the fate of love

Memories Live On





Silence by my side
I saw the sun go down
Like a shadow I wander in the night
Flow of memories is taking me to you
Is our common path only a dream?
 

Looking at the stars, I see your eyes
They sparkle again and call from afar
But clouds appear
Your image fades
Only memories live on
 

The last tears of the night
Frozen into flowers
Arisen from the wounds of the soul
As if the north wind would awaken me now
Wondering if you'd be mine once more
 

Looking at the stars, I see your eyes
They sparkle again and call from afar
But clouds appear
Your image fades
Only memories live on
 

Looking at the stars, I see your eyes
They sparkle again and call from afar
But clouds arrive
Your image fades
Only memories live on
 

But clouds appear
Your image fades
Only memories live on
