lyrics

Alguns fent fila cansats d'estar dempeus
grans i petits, maletes, bestiar per tot arreu
sóc el rei del món, com va dir el bo d'en Jack.
jo amb gana i tu quin filet t'has menjat.

entra un munt d'aigua, dius que hi ha massa humitat
el mar tot negre, no com la peli que t'has muntat
gavines que ens ataquen, tu explicant contes d'escarbats
ens hi està anant la vida, quin viatge m'has donat

Xapoteges, nedes o navegues?
Veus que aquestes alçades l'aigua ens arriba al coll
et fots, xapoteges, nedes o navegues?
Nedant sembla a la vora quan ets ben lluny del port
et fots, xapotejes, nedes o t'ofegues?
als naufrags tot els sembla un flotador
et fots, xapotejes, nedes o navegues?
Ara et fots, et fots, et fots!

Cenyir-se en la denuncia a les discriminacions,
opresions, injustícies, esperes recollir molt?
Potser als llibres d'historia, dels fills dels meus néts...
tens encara aquella molsosa màquina del temps?



HIGH SEAS TALE
Some people queuing tired of standing
big and small suitcases, livestock everywhere
i'm the king of the world, as good old Jack said.
I'm hungry but you eat a whole steak

A lot of water comes in, you say there is too much moisture
the sea's all black, not like the story you made up
seagulls are attacking us, you're telling beetle tales
our life is running out, such a journey you've given me

Do you splash, swim or surf?
You see that at these distance the water reaches our necks
do you swim, splash, swim or surf?
the shore seems near when your swimming but you're away from the harbor
do you splash, splash, swim or drown?
from a shipwreck everything seems afloat
do you swim, splash, swim or surf?
Now fuck you, fuck you, fuck you!

Focus on reporting discrimination,
oppressions, injustices, do you expect to collect a lot?
Maybe it will, in the history books of my grandchildren's children...
Do you still have that mushy time machine?
