Γιουσουρούμ [Yiousouroúm] [English translation]

My doors were left

without gardens

and hindes keep

the soil (still)

my heels became

like pull up brackets

and in their bucket

you settle in

you change uniform

too often

you change smell

you change

chassis1

and our hope is left burried

like a donkey2 in the crib.

My lice froze

and totters around

with a tik-tak3

makes my ears bleed

everything is scheduled

for everything there is a plan

even love

follows a protocol

you want me to win

with a single shot

a thousand pennies, a thousand pennies

in order to bring to you

good news

that you have money , my love.

Mousetraps for the grown-ups

cod liver oil

for the kids

you've knitted underwear

for the soldiers

your patriotic sacrifice

I'am sending you a message

using tam-tam

to cook with Vitam4

You were so attractive

you were a bam5

that's why i search for you in the hamam.

Your look is glazed

our hours are hollow

in aquariums life is stucked

having each of us accustomed

to their role-playing

our imagination is lost

it was sold out

in Yusurum6

for a costum

for a costum

it was sold out

in Yusurum

for a costum

for a costum

A protest

ten microphones

and loudspeakers

at full blast

thousands of bipeds

with tape recorders

they have been bathed

with the same lotion

you have been sold out

in Yusurum

for a costum

for a costum

and your beloved little self

flied with a "svum"7

tara-ta-dzum

tara-ta-dzum

tara-ta-dzum

Oh my epoch times

you remind me of Caesar

and those who are about to die

salute you

as I am getting old

I crawl on my four

vehicles

pass by me

I am headind

to Bangkok

to find my mate

King-Kong

inside my mind

gongs hit me

I am like a ball

of ping pong.

We are being executed with

dum dum bullets

dum dum bullets

dum dum bullets

and we are being sold out

in Yusurum

tara-ta-dzum

for a costum.
