Yellow Markers and Fat Catechists

Once I wasn't that silly, I had both crayons and a pencil case,
I had a timetable with Lionel Messi, I'd study at home for every quiz.
Once I wasn't that silly, fat catechists1 would bring us milk and carrots,
And everyone drank it, and everyone ate them, and everyone gobbled them up2.
There's no good and evil, there's only those nice and those naughty,
and they swap Lego minifigures for stickers.
Every day at 7:30 there was a school assembly, and then the rosary.
First they'd drill us, and then we'd say amen.
Every day we'd read the Old Testament and the New Testament,
and The Word would become flesh.
There was this bald priest in glasses, he'd give us cool sermons.
Every first Friday we'd go to mass, on Thursdays there were meetings,
meetings for parents, not for us. They'd make us sandwiches for breakfast,
And sisters would give them to the homeless if we didn't eat up.
And sisters would make us toasts and tell us to kiss the bread if it fell to the floor, and we'd kiss that bread when it fell.
And now I'm begging you, please kiss me, too, because I'm waiting for a signal that I should get up.
 
And although I see with a naked eye that heaven and earth unite somewhere,
It's still far away and I'm really afraid that I'll lose my strength.
And although I actually know more proofs that you don't exist at all,
I'll still try to live as though you were.
 
Once I had a pretty wife and a plastic watch,
I'm thinking about that when I see a sleeping fish on the TV screen at four in the morning
I now appreciate nap times back in kindergarten, although I didn't sleep then at all.
And I'm thinking what is the nap time these days.
Do you remember us talking about various things before going to sleep,
sometimes even about stupid ones?
But I laid hope and faith in you like elbows on a windowsill,
or granulated tea on a table.
Because there are things that we mustn't drink
and that we mustn't eat, like rowanberries, for instance.
And when we eat fish, we have to watch out for bones, but we don't have to fast as much as adults.
And now touch me, just a little bit will be enough,
I don't want to go back anymore to our memories on the shield3.
And now touch me if you hear this, because I'd like to know so much that you're looking.
 
  • 1. 'katechetki' - 'female catechists'
  • 2. 'każdemu uszy się trzęsły' - lit. 'everyone's ears were shaking' which means that everyone ate eagerly.
  • 3. 'wspomnienia na tarczy' - lit. 'memories on a shield', hard to translate. Probably a reference to the idiom 'wrócić na tarczy' (lit. 'return on a shield'), which means 'to fail.'

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
