A commando
It jumps out at you
It's not a gift
It's doesn't need two people
It takes bridges
From lovers
And it answers
To the vain
A commando
Is resistant
It resists
The worst existence
It leaps
And its leaps are impressive
And its line of battle
Is right in the teeth
A commando
It's in your eyes
It knocks out the tears
With blood and fire
As God-like as Rimbaud¹
Who's as beautiful as a God
And in his soul
There's a small fire burning
A commando
It takes upon itself
And on your skin
It doesn't disappoint

Liberated Cuba
A shield
Is worn out in combat
How-how-how
Commando
How-how-how
How to commission
Command-command-command
Commando
Command-command-command
How to call off a mission
A commando
Several commandos
Metal saw
If there's a mind
The Madelon²
Goes to the firing squad
It says a lot
About man
A commando
It's common sense
It's just a word
That smells like gasoline
Crying makes
The chest puff out
But without ever
Wetting the cap of the gun
How-how-how
Commando
How-how-how
How to commission
Command-command-command
Commando
Command-command-command
How to call off a mission
