2.7.09

I'm not yelling. I'm telling the truth in a loud voice.

In case of revolution
please break the glass

when we were young
false alarms were punishable by death


Chorus:

They thought I was a Marine Barracks.
They thought I was a tire burning.

they knew it was him
the ink was all over his hand

but no one called out the dogs because it is said
the canines ate the corpses in Sabra and Shatilla

that summer one house burned
each week until they were gone.

The bitterness of translation
is the joy of understanding,
and vice versa.

Budapest Bhudda pest.
