Νεοέλληνας [Neoellinas] [English translation]

I'm diving in a cesspit of images

I inflate my breasts with hormones

I want to be like the Americans

But I also secretly like Mitropanos 1

Greek, neogreek

The willow's flowers have withered

And the short lemon tree has grown

but in Salona they don't slaughter lambs

The duckling doesn't reach the river

And the priest's naked wife

Caresses an appliance she won

In a fixed game show

Strange little bird

Lost bird

She eats my intestines

But I say nothing

I burn the trees and build duplexes

I'm going to make my children puppets

In a cage-like office like a wild animal

playing an endless silent solo

Greek. neogreek

The willow's flowers have withered

And the short lemon tree has grown

but in Salona they don't slaughter lambs

The duckling doesn't reach the river

And the priest's naked wife

Caresses an appliance she won

In a fixed game show

Strange little bird

Lost bird

She eats my intestines

But I say nothing

An adidas mousetraps caught my at heel

I confuse the jukebox with a barrel organ

Under the cypress tree beneath my grave

A black turtle has pissed on me

Greek, neogreek

The willow's flowers have withered

And the short lemon tree has grown

but in Salona they don't slaughter lambs

The duckling doesn't reach the river

And the priest's naked wife

Caresses an appliance she won

In a fixed game show

Strange little bird

Lost bird

She eats my intestines

But I say nothing.
