[Verse 1]
Fermin’s hands
Spin and he as well
Turns and spins ‘round
Poor little Fermin
Who wants to be happy
He turns and spins ‘round
[Bridge]
In the hospice they will give him
Water, sun, and bread
And a bird that keeps his name
In the hospice he must die
And before he shuts up
The bird will come from the sea
And it will take him
Out to sea
[Verse 2]
Today your dreams, Fermin
Taste of sawdust
They turn and spin
Today your sadness is by the sun
He wants to be real
Even though you don’t believe it
[Bridge]
In the hospice they will give him
Water, sun, and bread
And a bird that keeps his name
In the hospice they will tell him
Soon you must die
The night will raise its last damp stain
And that bird
Will take it away
[Coda]
Fermin went to life
I don’t know when he will return
