Lyrics:
Why did you never let me
Take the first step
So that the dung beetle and I
Would carry the blame.

You preach of beauty, of things
But conscriptions come in waves
Then speak of privileges, morals and ideals
Peace needs persistence.

I turn into a pawn of your games.
Do you ponder on our oblivion?
Hands fall, the heart goes astray
And the crowds burst into flames.

I see an ocean-load of guilt
And its waves rapturing our lives,
Our soil and footsteps
Trampling on an olive tree branch.

Peace, I sit before you,
Lamenting on my Youth.
My ancestors’ poem I shall find again
On the edge of the sword

Which cuts through virtues,
Bleak monotonies of the mind.
Aristophanes smiles at me
And Trygaeus sighs with relief.
