Κι ο ήλιος θ' αποκοιμηθεί μες στα ερείπια της Ολύνθου
θα μοιάζουν πράγματα του μύθου οι φίλοι μου και οι εχθροί
μαρμαρωμένοι θα σταθούν οι ρήτορες κι οι λωποδύτες
ζητιάνοι εταίρες και προφήτες μαρμαρωμένοι θα σταθούν

Μπροστά στην πύλη θα σταθώ με τις κουβέρτες στη μασχάλη
κι αργοκουνώντας το κεφάλι θα χαιρετήσω το φρουρό
χωρίς βουλή χωρίς Θεό σαν βασιλιάς σ' αρχαίο δράμα
θα πω τη λέξη και το γράμμα μπροστά στην πύλη θα σταθώ

I’m guided by this birthmark on my skin
I’m guided by the beauty of our weapons
First we take manhattan, then we take berlin

I’d really like to live beside you, baby
I love your body and your spirit and your clothes
But you see that line there moving through the station?
I told you, I told you, told you, I was one of those

Ah you loved me as a loser, but now you’re worried that I just might win
You know the way to stop me, but you don’t have the discipline
How many nights I prayed for this, to let my work begin
First we take manhattan, then we take berlin

I don’t like your fashion business mister
And I don’t like these drugs that keep you thin
I don’t like what happened to my sister
First we take manhattan, then we take berlin

I’d really like to live beside you, baby ...

And I thank you for those items that you sent me
The monkey and the plywood violin
I practiced every night, now I’m ready
First we take manhattan, then we take berlin

I am guided

Ah remember me, I used to live for music
Remember me, I brought your groceries in
Well it’s father’s day and everybody’s wounded
First we take manhattan, then we take berlin

Mommy, can I go out and kill tonight?
I feel, I feel like taking a life.
Please, I wanna seal the kitchen knife
and feel, feel like taking a life.

Rippin kittin kidding on the round (x2)

Daddy, can I go and haunt tonight
like you do on Sunday mornings.
Honey, give me a real gentle knife
to feel, feel like taking my life.

Mommy, can I go out and kill tonight?

Mommy, daddy, please let me go (x2)

Would you like to something before you leave?
Perhaps you'd care to state exactly how you feel.
We say goodbye before we've said hello.
I hardly even like you.
I shouldn't care at all.
We met just six hours ago.
The music was too loud.
From your bed I came today and lost a bloody year.
And I would like to know, how do you feel?
How do you feel?
Not a single word was said.
They lied still without fears.
Occasionally you showed a smile, but what was the need?
I felt the cold far too soon in a wind of ninetyfive.
My friends are lying in the sun, I wish I was there.
Tomorrow brings another town, another girl like you.
Have you time before you leave to greet another man
Just to let me know, how do you feel?
How do you feel?
Goodbye to you.
Childish bangles too.
I've had enough for one day.

Μια φυσαρμόνικα που κλαίει, με την ανάσα ενός παιδιού
Σημάδι τούτου του καιρού, που μας φοβίζει και μας καίει
Μια φυσαρμόνικα που κλαίει, είναι η δική μας παρουσία
Τον ύμνο ακούγοντας να λέει, "Χαίρε, ω χαίρε ελευθερία"
Κι είν' οι φωνές μας στον αέρα, αλήθεια ποιά είναι η αλήθεια?
Έτσι που ζεις από συνήθεια, μια μέρα ακόμα και μια μέρα
Κι ο ουρανός που μας σκεπάζει, μια φυσαρμόνικα που κλαίει
Και εμείς, ανυποψίαστοι κι ωραίοι, μέσα στο θαύμα που βουλιάζει...
Λίγοι καλοί κι αυτοί μοιραίοι, παραιτημένοι κατά βάθος
Ω με πόση ένταση και πάθος γίνονται οι πρώτοι, τελευταίοι...

Μια φυσαρμόνικα που κλαίει, ακολουθώ τα βήματά σου
Μέσα στην ερημιά του κόσμου κι έρχομαι πλάι εκεί κοντά σου...

Τα italics ενδέχεται να είναι και "γίνονται πρώτοι οι τελευταίοι" αλλά προτιμώ την λιγότερο κοινωνικο-πολιτικοποιημένη μαυρίλα της πρώτης εκδοχής.

I am awaiting the sunrise
Gazing modestly through the coldest morning
Once it came you lied
Embracing us over autumn's proud treetops
I stand motionless
In a parade of falling rain
Your voice I cannot hear
As I am falling again
Devotion eludes
And in sadness I lumber
In my own ashes I am standing without a soul
She wept and whispered: "I know..."
We walked into the night
Am I to bid you farewell?
Why can't you see that I try
When every tear I shed
Is for you?

KROKUS - tokyo nights

Last night when I was laying in my bed
Had a dream of a flag in white & red
Swiss cross turned into the japan dot
A yellow girl appeared and made me hot



She took me to her place - a Geisha house
There was tea rice-booze & ceremony
I got undressed she had me washed
I felt her body and I was lost



Tokyo nights hot burning lights
Tokyo nights you took my mind away
Made me obsessed by loving fights



Soon I remembered I stayed in a dream
And I could make a try to change the scene
The geisha girl was just too hot for me
I tried to wake up unsuccessfully



And even as the big alarm-clock rang
Outside my window the first blackbird sang
My yellow girlfriend didn't leave my head
Got to stay forever in her bed



Tokyo nights hot burning lights
Tokyo nights you took my mind away
I'm in the spell of your delights

Τίποτα δε χάθηκε ποτέ από κανέναν
ούτε ένα αστέρι δεν ξεστράτισε ποτέ.
Κανένας δεν υπέφερε για πάντα στα χαμένα
κανείς δεν πέθανε ποτέ ωραίε μου εαυτέ.

Κι αν είναι λόγια δύσκολα είναι τ' αγαπημένα
κι αν τα πιστεύεις γεια χαρά
και φεύγω ήσυχα, φεύγω ήσυχα.

Τίποτα δεν πέρασε ούτε και θα γυρίσει
όλα συμβαίνουν τώρα, όλα σε μια στιγμή.
Παράφορη εποχή, ημέρα όμορφη, ημέρα δύσκολη
μια πρόκληση η ζωή μου, αθάνατοι θνητοί.

Κι αν είναι λόγια δύσκολα είναι κι αγαπημένα
κι αν τα πιστεύεις γεια χαρά
και φεύγω ήσυχα, φεύγω ήσυχα.

Όλοι μου λεν πως έχω μάτια δακρυσμένα
και πως στα στήθια κουβαλώ παλιά πληγή,
για το χατίρι σου θ' αλλάξω μιαν αυγή
και θα γελώ για σένα.

Θαλασσοπρόσωπο κορίτσι, δεν πειράζει,
ίσως η αγάπη να'ναι γράμματα ψιλά
για όσους μάθανε στου κόσμου τα καλά
κι ο πόνος τούς τρομάζει.

Αχ, ουρανέ που δε μ' αφήνεις να ησυχάσω
μοιάζουν τα ντέρτια με σύννεφα μαβιά,
πώς να τραβήξω στη ζωή μου μολυβιά
και πως να σε ξεχάσω.

Ένα τραγούδι θα σου στείλω από τα ξένα
να σου χαιδέψει σαν το μπάτη τα μαλλιά
τώρα που βρίσκεσαι σε άλλη αγκαλιά
και δε ρωτάς για μένα.

Και νικητής του διαγωνισμού "Βρες τη φλέβα!" ανακηρύσσεται ο nothingman.

Early one morning
With time to kill
I borrowed Jebb’s rifle
And sat on a hill
I saw a lone rider
Crossing the plain
I drew a bead on him
To practice my aim

My brother’s rifle
Went of in my hand
A shot rang out
Across the land
The horse, he kept running
The rider was dead
I hung my head
I hung my head

I set off running
To wake from the dream
My brother’s rifle
Went into the sheen
I kept on running
Into the south lands
That’s where they found me
My head and my hands

The sheriff he asked me
Why had I run
And then it came to me
Just what I had done
And all for no reason
Just one peace of lead
I hung my head
I hung my head

Here in the court house
The whole town was there
I see the judge
High up in his chair
Explain to the court room
What went through you mind
And we’ll ask the jury
What verdict they find

I felt the power
Of death over life
I orphaned his children
I widowed his wife
I begged their forgiveness
I wish I was dead
I hung my head
I hung my head

I hung my head
I hung my head

Early one morning
With time to kill
I see the gallows
Up on a hill
And out in the distance
A trick of the brain
I see a lone rider
Crossing the plain

And he’d come to fetch me
To see what they’d done
And we’d ride together
To kingdom come
I prayed for god’s mercy
For soon I’d be dead
I hung my head
I hung my head

I hung my head
I hung my head
