Like a child, who was lost from his mother
I'm standing at the outskirts of the city named Babylon
I don't understand anything, I don't get it
And I don't have any plan
In the foriegn city, all the streets are unfamiliar
Foreign letters, foreign beauties
They want strange banknotes from me in the taxi
Big like a circus tent
Hands made of paper, legs made of lead
Signals from the space and pictures from Kosovo
On the run from the world, at the gates of modern history
Modern history...
Tatterdemalions are hungrily walking around full tables
They are drinking with straws unfinished coca-cola
In the main street there is - dressed in jester's hat -
Walking apostle John
I wanted to go through the arcade to another yard
But on the traffic light there is a red man
First, all that is brown
Then the big boss
The man who kicked me said sorry
And then he went, but it hurts
Like he wanted to hurt me
And what is dripping from my knee
Is mine, not his blood
Hands made of paper, legs made of lead
Signals from the space and pictures from Kosovo
On the run from the world, at the gates of modern history
Modern history...
I go alone with a cart among shelves
I'll buy everything, that was waiting for me
Oil paint, divers to soda water
The grater for carrots
In a rubber mask of beautiful lady Marilyn
And at the top of it, in satin shirt
Red flowers in my hair, I'll storm to the toilet
And I'll say: "Here I am"
And there will be silence, they will be surprised
All those cowboys, glad they are still alive
And not a drop of wine will drip on the floor
On the tiled floor
Hands made of paper, legs made of lead
Signals from the space and pictures from Kosovo
On the run from the world, at the gates of modern history
Modern history...
Red smile, white face
Like a child who was lost from his mother
Like a bird, that fell from the nest
I'll flap my wings and fly from everyone
I'll flap my wings and fly from everyone
I'll flap my wings and fly from everyone
