Lyrics
Our life is jack-knifings
in dirty dead-ends
rotten teeth, faded slogans
basso vestiario
smell of piss, antiseptics
and spoilt sperm. Ripped-off posters.
Up and down. Up and down Patission Ave
Our life is Patission Ave.
The powdered detergent which does not pollute the sea
And Mitropanos sang his way into our life
but Dexameni has also swallowed him
like those high ass ladies.
But we are still here.
We travel all our life in lust
the same course.
Humiliation-loneliness-despair. And vice versa.
OK. We do not cry. We grew up.
Only when it rains
we secretly suck our thumb. And we smoke.
Our life is
pointless panting
in programmed strikes
snitches and patrols.
That’s why I tell you.
Next time they shoot us
we shan’t run away. Count our strength.
Let's not sell our skin so cheap, damn it!
No. It's raining. Give me a cigarette.
(Translation by collettivo neri pennuti)
