Mrs. Maria

Sorry for coming here like this
Forgive me for these rogue clothes
With a long shirt and my hat backwards
Right when the soap opera that you like most is on
 
It's been three days since I've slept well
Your daughter has left me like this
And what she talks about the most is how you're angry all the time
But today I won't go back home with a 'no'
 
[Chorus]
 
Mrs. Maria, let me date your daughter
Excuse me for my boldness
This girl is like a drawing from heaven
 
Mrs. Maria, let me date your daughter
Excuse me for my boldness
This girl is like a drawing from heaven
 
That God painted and threw away the paintbrush

RV 644, II, 2. Aria: Ye stars, constellations.

Ye stars, constellations,
at the waning of the moon
be funeral torches
to our enemy.
In this blessed night
let the godless enemy be destroyed,
and may they be dead
when the sun rise.

Sweetheart

Go, girl!
Right next to me, right next to me
C'mon!
 
It's been tough without you!
It's been tough!
I've been like a mad dog
Abandoned
Tossed on the curb
 
It's been tough without you!
It's been tough!
I feel cold when it's hot
My joy is gone
 
Without my honey bun
Without spooning to fall asleep
Without my baby, dear God
Sweet Jesus!
 
I'm at the bar night and day
It's really cowardly of you
Not to pick up the phone
When I call!
You're just begging me to die!
(Go)
 
Oh sweetheart, sweetheart
If you come back to me, I'll leave the bar
Oh sweetheart, sweetheart
I miss our boinking
Our boinking
Our boinking
I miss our boinking
 
I miss our boinking
Our boinking
Our boinking
I miss our boinking

Listen Daisy

Listen, you
The colors of the rainbow have already changed
A rose has never bloomed again
And I don't want to see you anymore...
 
With that taste of soap in your mouth
The colors of the rainbow have already changed
A rose has never bloomed again
And I don't want to see you anymore
I don't want to see...
 
Listen, honey, gas prices will rise
I don't want your address never again
It's either the beginning of the end
Or it's the end of...
 
I'm leaving
For the assured, forbidden city
And find a way to make a living, Daisy
So you'll like me
 
These wounds of life, Daisy
These wounds of life, this bitter life
So you'll like...

Mary Beech

La la ra-la la la la-re-la la la...
 
I don't know what your name is,
Oh Mary Beech!
Now what name should I give you,
Oh Mary Beech!
Oh, Beech Mary!
 
Not carnation, for you're a rose
Oh Mary Beech!
Not rose, for you're a blossom,
Oh Mary Beech!
Oh, Beech Mary!
 
La la ra-la la la la-re-la la la...
 
I don't want to call you carnation,
Oh Mary Beech!
For I'd be extolling you,
Oh Mary Beech!
Oh, Beech Mary!
 
I'd rather call you a mirror,
Oh Mary Beech!
Where I expect to see myself,
Oh Mary Beech!
Oh, Beech Mary!
 
La la ra-la la la la-re-la la la...
 
I don't know what your name is,
Oh Mary Beech!
Now what name should I give you,

Not rose, for you're a blossom,
Oh Mary Beech!
Oh, Beech Mary!

Call me Maria

Versions: #1
Maria, you liked my look tonight, my name is Maria, there is no more Diva: call me Maria.
I made the men cry, brought the ground to their knees, carried like an idol then dragged through the mud, Venice, Mexico City, Rome. The boxes filled with flowers, I saw so many crowns bathe my feet in tears, but I am only a woman for the only man standing, an ordinary lover and this man is you: my voice trembles for you.
Maria, you liked my look tonight, my name is Maria, there is no more Diva: call me Maria.
I ran heaven and earth, having the most beautiful lovers, repeating all the New York, Paris, Milan arias, if the divas unleash whims, torments, all queenly fights do not end in blood. The sun is mortal and my diamond voice, had nothing eternal like the hearts of lovers darken easily. Maria, you liked my look tonight, my name is Maria, there is no more Diva: call me Maria. All the gold of Bohemia shone in my voice, I died on stage, was born there so many times, but a thick mist covers the Scala, when the insults hurt my heart and then the voice, for the only man standing in a thousand shards I break, crazy admirers, the heart of La Scala: my voice trembles for you. Tonight my name is Maria, there is no more Diva: call me Maria.

Mariachi Song

Versions: #1
I am a very honest man, who likes the best
I don't lack women, money or love
Riding my horse, through the mountains I go
The stars and the moon, they tell me where I'm going
 
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Oh, oh, my love
Oh, my brunette
Of my heart
 
I like to play the guitar, I like to sing the song
Mariachi accompanies me, when I sing my song
I like to have my drinks, Aguardiente is the best
Also the white tequila, with its salt gives it flavor
 
Ay, ay, ay, ay
Oh, oh, my love
Oh, my brunette
Of my heart
 
I like to play the guitar, I like to sing the song

If Only

I feel longing
in this heart
Want to meet
even though it's short
Why do we have to part
Just because we are different
Will I be able to ignore everything
Wow... wow...
 
Reff:
If only we
were always together
Flying through the clouds
If only we
were blessed by Him
Life would be happier
 
Oh God, please unite us
So love is flourishing in (our) heart
For us forever
Wow... wow...
 
[Back to verse 1 and reff]
 
If only we were inseparable
Sunshine was there
If only we were always together
Moon was also smiling
 
If only we were always together
Flying through the clouds
If only we...
were blessed by Him
Life would be happier

Where are you?

The clock is ticking and the hours are passing,
No one but me, under the roof of my room
I don't want to think, the world is falling on me
There is no button that can, very, disconnect me
 
All my thoughts
They always flow into you
Like a demon inside
Doesn't let me see anything that's you
 
Where are you? I scream in the wind
And someone will answer me
The clouds in the sky will be transformed
They will draw your name as they pass by
And so I'll know one day where you are
 
All my thoughts
They always flow into you
Like a demon inside
Doesn't let me see anything that's you
 
Where are you? I scream in the wind
And someone will answer me
The clouds in the sky will be transformed
They will draw your name as they pass by
And so I'll know one day where you are
 
And so I'll know one day where you are

Suffocating Life

Am I not allowed to get to know this world
Do I have to live in solitary
Alone and lonely
 
Am I not allowed to get to know love
Love from someone
That I love
 
Life like a bird
inside a suffocating cage
Be my cage made of gold
Better I live in the vast wilderness
 
Am I not allowed to get to know love
Do I have to live in solitary
Alone and lonely
 
Oh... I want to be free
Free in this world
Free to love my lover
Free to love my lover
Free to love my lover

Best Ed

There's Ed, Buddy's here too.
Together they help each other out.
Ed wakes up with the idea
to be the best in the world.
 
Bravo, Buddy! Bravo, Ed!
With you it's cheerful everywhere.
From dawn until evening
there's no boredom or sadness.
 
Looks like the squirrel is frowning.
Ed will put an end to this as well.
Do you have a friend in the world?
Let him be like Ed now.
 
Bravo, Buddy! Bravo, Ed!
With you it's cheerful everywhere.
From dawn until evening
there's no boredom or sadness.
Bravo, Buddy! Bravo, Ed!

Went Good

Versions: #1
The road tonight is leading me to you
Taking me to the captivity of your (beautiful) hair
Your beautiful deer like eyes make me feel like Laila* and Majnoon* sometimes
I'm carrying you on my shoulders or/and you seduce me with (the beauty of) your hair (sometimes)
I have conceived (many) wounds but it is the wound of love that has brought me to you
Good that my pains are cured (by)
Falling in love with you
 
MAJNOON* Insane, a man completely lost in love of someone/thing
 
LAILA* The beloved

Our Lady of Soccer

It's a drug that mixes sweat and incense
to help you close your eyes and get rid of your troubles
the candles and the match, the prayer cards and the flags
it's a mystical extasis that steals your heart.
A nation prays the Holy Lady
they need a guide and ask for protection
to the one who sees and gives and protects from trouble
Our Lady of Soccer.
 
Everything stands still, sleeps, all is quiet tonight
it's a soft drug and one forgets their past
full of thieves and thugs, fat asses and con men
when the priest arrives all is forgiven
and the hooded man lights a candle
and smiles for the TV people
watch and buy and worship your God!
Our Lady of Soccer.
 
It's a scandal, the defender has knocked down the midfielder
the crowd is excited by a stunning dribbling
a bow to the replay and a Pater Noster for the penalty
and at the end everyone is ready to join the procession
and the hooded man leads the march
he wrote a new article of the Constitution:
watch and pray for Our Lady
watch and buy for Our Lady
watch and vote for Our Lady
Our Lady of Soccer.

Young Gazelle

I have lost my young white gazelle
I have searched many provinces
I have lost my young white gazelle
I have searched many provinces
 
People say look, she has got crazy
I'm not crazy, I've just lost my love
People say look, she has got crazy
I'm not crazy, I've just lost my love
 
I wasn't in love before, how did I fall in love this year?
...and I was captured by a new seedlings
I didn't see any benefit from the new seedlings
...and in the end I was blamed
 
Your height is like a sugarcane seedlings
Your face is fresher than flower leaf
Your height is like a sugarcane seedlings
Your face is fresher than flower leaf
 
If you look at me once, I will burn
Your peep is more dangerous than killing
If you look at me once, I will burn
Your peep is more dangerous than killing
 
I wasn't in live before, how did I fall in love this year?
...and I was captured by a new seedlings
I didn't see any benefit from the new seedlings
...and in the end I was blamed
 
Oh who has wore blue shirt, I wait for you
You are a green wheat and I'm your soil
Oh who has wore blue shirt, I wait for you
You are a green wheat and I'm your soil
 
If it is difficult to harvest green wheat
...give me a kiss to pick your clusters
If it is difficult to harvest green wheat
...give me a kiss to pick your clusters
 
I wasn't in love before, how did I fall in love this year?
...and I was captured by a new seedlings
I didn't see any benefit from the new seedlings

It Wasn't An Island

Like a wounded dragon,
Like small islet
Dancing on the sea...
She is a gorgon:
Alexander The Great's sister,
Who grieves with a scream
That moves storms!
 
She floods lands with delirium!
She floods lands with delirium!
She floods lands with delirium!
 
She floods lands with delirium
And it doesn't stop until all of them are free!
She floods lands with delirium
Near Crete...
 
She floods lands with delirium!
She floods lands with delirium!
She floods lands with delirium...!

The Bridge's Railings

The bridge's railings
Swing from side to side when I walk by.
It's only you that I love:
I ignore all the others.
 
Oh, listless one! Out of mercy!
Tell me that you love me,
Do not make me grieve!
 
Oh, listless one! Out of mercy!
Come on, now!
Tell me that you love me,
Do not make me grieve...

 
The bridge's railings
Swing from side to side when I walk by...
 
Oh, listless one! Out of mercy!
Tell me that you love me,
Do not make me grieve!
 
Oh, listless one! Out of mercy!
Come on, now!
Tell me that you love me,
Do not make me grieve...

 
The bridge's railings
Swing from side to side when I walk by...

My son

Chorus:
My son, what a world you got to walk (I'm from the sovereign land)
Ouch the embers burn me, I'm not gonna kneel down (like a detoned bomb hey!)
 
Sunk in the darkness of desolation
the human being only moves forward its frustation
the contamination starts in the head first
defy the nature (what's that?)
 
Living a shitty life based on the vice I accumulate
without any perspectives more than save our own asses
doing pure calculation hard null androgens
let's see which is the best way of taking a shit and take advantage of others
 
It seems to be scientific, this thing that sonds tragic
it responds to any part of the planet or geographical limit
paralytic statics overdose of imnosis metamorphosis
of a critic state laxative diuretic
Rap tought me to throw up my shit and turn it into art
to tell from from another place
compatriot of the same world when telling you
 
I make flights (?)... if they see me wanting to enter
with this style rapping, with every step I overthrow walls
taking with me the don of my words for them to stay with you
and with this abracadabra go into your ear
the rap, for this yes my friend,
has become in the protective guide of the ones who were lost
since the moment they were born
it transcended, survived
and it was growing slowly, I asure you a movement
now it is increasing and it branches, intensifies
joining solidarity ties that are multiplying around the world
who would say that it would be like this?
 
In any part of the hemisphere
the human life is rotten, smells like cemetery
they say there's no options, there's no alternative
C'mon let's not be a pussy if changing the history is a matter of alive collective wills and not pasive lives
 
In full romance with our sorrows
let's break the chains, let's put down the shields
If one way or another everyone breaks our asses the same way
don't be strong headed moron!
 
(Chorus)
 
I'm comming in a rush, the base no longer stops me
I come snached whatever happens
Rapping, rhyming, fighting, thinking, kicking, cuting, putting myself to the duel
trying to stomp harder against the floor
It's not an excuse, it's not a consolation
 
My autist and egocentric point of view
I go growing roots through life and not like a tourist, you heard me?
Expresive, comunicative, alive nets
The active compulsive narrative motivates me
 
Sir, it's what we are, what we want, and it's what we do in different international branches like criers cadets
rappers, we bring supreme messages
Atention!
 
Brothers and sisters, end of the sentence, let's break chains
this extreme situation burns and it's a serious problem
falling into the abyss of individualism
that keeps on lashing out against ourselves
right here, too much idiocy
it's time to change the mechanism
 
I heard comments that something wants to explode
It's already ready, start improvising
the countdown can't be stopped
'cause they can destroy us if they try
 
Deniying at all this new order that seems old
changing the content of the container is a reflection
year by year the world moves along but in the wrong way
some people call progress to the evident regression
 
Drastic common basics the reality is tragic and it hurts
it's not like jelly
my soft rhymes bring you and flow with adrenaline
I say the life seems like a fossil to me
but rapping I feel more useful
 
The people is bewildered dismayed by the phenomenon that shakes
all latitudes altitudes
They ask what it is?
It is a prophet? No!
It's the hip hop surrounding the circumference of the planet
 
The only rude (?)
thinking that to succeed in this world you have to be a motherfucker
but loke that, your theory is recruited
observing that the destruction is absolute
lack of impute involucres me, my soul is coming off motherfucker!
 
(Chorus)
 
In this war the enemy can hardly be distinguished
it's invisible to confuse
Oh Earth give me freedom
Only you can free me
 
I hear a riotous moment, they can't stop me anymore
Oh, like the detoned bomb I'm going to burst soon (x2)

I Get Off

Someone please stop the world at last! I get off
at the first station, here and now!
Someone please stop the world at last, because I get off.
I don’t want to breathlessly race through life.
 
Like in a spinning-wheel, I spin passively,
losing the thread and the days,
and some devil keeps telling me: 'hurry!'
And yet, life is made to live it,
to ask oneself: 'To have or to be?'.
And yet, life is made to live it,
before the thread breaks in the spinning-wheel.
 
Like in a spinning-wheel, I spin passively,
losing the thread and the days,
and some devil keeps telling me: 'hurry!'
 
Someone please stop the world at last! I get off
at the first station, here and now!
I no longer want to compete, I’m running out of energy.
I don’t want to breathlessly race through life.
 
I’ll be wasting my time, looking for good stars,
watching holes in the sky,
loving you as long as I can.
I don’t mind spending sunsets, dawns and nights at this.
 
Like in a spinning-wheel, I spin passively,
losing the thread and the days,
and some devil keeps telling me: 'hurry!'
And yet, life is made to live it,
to ask oneself: 'To have or to be?'.
And yet, life is made to live it,
before the thread breaks in the spinning-wheel.

The girlfriend

You and I have something
You and I have something
You and I have something to kill
You and I have blood
You and I are hungry
You and I have something to kill
One two three
Four five
Your heart reinvents you
Six seven
How does it feel
To not have pending
Anything more between you and I?
One two three
Four five
Your heart reinvents you
Six seven
How does it feel
Not to have pending
Anything else between you and I?
You and I under the moon
You and I under the moon

The Voice of the Sea

I'd say that I feel no fear.
For, out of it, I keep making wood shavings.
Everything burns and I look at it, silent,
Without making a fuss:
The wheat and the haystacks
Of my youth.
 
Be quiet! Do be quiet, pain!
Now, I'm just a shadow of myself,
But still
It's a most intimate celebration
To hear, from afar, the voice of the sea...
 
2020.08.17.

Who Are You Committed to

What is it for...
What is it for...
You say the love word
Love doesn't exist anymore in this heart
 
It's impossible
It's impossible
Flower grows in my heart
hurt, before disappear from this heart
 
And you...
You're sweet only on the lips
You give me bitterness
You ask for sweetness
 
What did you promise me?
What do you do to me?
Nothing but adding agony
My heartache
And you...
You're sweet only on the lips
Who are you belong to, who are you committed to
Honey...
 
What else, my love...
What else, my love...
What else do you want from me
My love is only for you

Heal heal

Heal heal, heal heal
If you dont heal today, there may not be tomorrow
Heal jungle, heal beach
If the sea doesn't heal, the mountain no longer heals
When your wounds make rivers
I’ll bathe in your waters
When your fears are my own
I’ll hug your skirt
Hopefully it won’t be too late
To learn to love you
Heal heal, heal heal
If you dont heal today, there may not be tomorrow
Heal jungle, heal beach
If the sea doesn't heal, the mountain no longer heals
Like we believe the lie
Nothing happens here
If we sing this song
We clean the soul
If I don't say it I forget, I forget
And we return the calm
If I don’t say it I forget, I forget
And the party is over
If I don't see it, I don't stay blind
And the party is over
If I don't see it I don't stay blind
Heal heal, heal heal
Let them change the topic, and likewise we change nothing
Hashtag jungle, hashtag beach
The world isn’t what you see on your screen
We were selfish to love you
To bring you to the world
The future never mattered much
As when I see you
If I don't say it I forget, I forget
Your awakened senses
If I don't say it I forget, I forget
The sun and the wind
The sand, the drizzle
The guilt, the hills
The time, the oil
The fog that covers everything
Lock, bottle, whale, elephant
Storm, activist without school
Terror without sequel
Memories of my grandma
My life isn’t for sale, my family isn’t for sale
The future isn’t for sale isn’t for sale, isn’t for sale
If I don't say it I forget, I forget
If I don’t say it I forget

The Passionate

We've been through many afflictions
We've also played all or nothing
And it wasn't good
We've said goodbye, but then
We just felt sorry for ourselves
 
We already know by heart that we are like this
We lament a lot because of not having
Achieved something greater
Or even better
 
One returns to the other almost every month
What makes us do what we did
Both stunned by the stupidity
Me you in life together again
 
But
It doesn't hurt no
I just came
To congratulate
Yes!
Congratulations to us
The passionate
Congratulations to us
And everybody else
Who like us also
Go, come back
That just like us
Don't have peace
Congratulations to us
Irrationals
Congratulations to us
WIthout rivals
Congratulations to us
Infernal partners

Come, come, follow me, my faithful

Now that we're only looking forward
And we start our long journey together

I'll learn to listend and I won't be the usual me
 
And you'll see, and you'll see that I love you
I never been so honest. Do you want more?
 
We'll go out to dinner once in a week
And then to dance if you still feel like it
And it's possible that I'll finally get in the kitchen
I'm gonna surprise you more than what you can imagine
 
There won't be missing reasons for you to laugh
And I'll dress in fashion like you wanted
And we'll make a party out of every moment
And I'll be putting in you all that I have

Why don't you sing my bird

Why don't you si-sing my bird
How you sang first
How can I, can I sing
They cut off my wings
They took my voice
 
They took our City* from us
They took our City from us
And our Hagia Sophia
The Virgin cries bitterly bitterly

Selfish

How many days after you I gathered my soul
I have stopped counting.
While you broke the bed with others,
Love broke in me
 
I questioned you a little bit, but you're selfish,
selfish, you fall asleep and with a clear conscience.
 
To every woman you love
whore you name her
let my heart recover
I am tired and sick
Let me be clay in your hands
You crushed your favorite
instead the heart hurts
There is a sick ego in you.
 
It was love for a day, you're about to leave home
weeks at home
I barely get up and knock me out
with a new lie on your back.
 
I questioned you a little bit, but you're selfish,
selfish, you fall asleep and with a clear conscience.
 
To every woman you love
whore you name her
let my heart recover
I am tired and sick
Let me be clay in your hands
You crushed your favorite
instead the heart hurts
There is a sick ego in you.

Mountains of the Virgin Forest, Where Are You?

Mountains of the , where are you?
Those gigantic trees
That were cut down with our axes,
Tearing down the elderberries as they fell.
 
Mountains of the virgin forest, where are you?
I keep chopping and chopping
And I never find anything:
Only forest and boulders, nothing more!
 
I was a day labourer in the time of the taskmasters,
And I walked into the forest with the desire to kill...
And I took out my rage with my ax
Against the trees of the Upper Parana river.

 
Mountains of the virgin forest, where are you?
The timber industry kept tearing you down
And the strength of my arm,
Kept fading in your depths, relentlessly.
 
Mountains of the virgin forest, where are you?
I wish I could enter you through your womb
And fall down the slope
And reach, with the current, the Parana.
 
I was a day labourer in the time of the taskmasters,
And I walked into the forest with the desire to kill...
And I took out my rage with my ax
Against the trees of the Upper Parana river.

 
Mountains of the virgin forest... Where are you?!
