I saw a strange light in the sky, last night
The world was turning backwards, in my mind
Sunset and dawn reversed, it was time
People pursuing means exchanging them for purposes
creating metaphysical objects to replace their lost gods
throwing away with carelessness their free will
And talkin', talkin', talkin'
about how to protect themselves
from the monsters they created with their own hands
as they were their sons, and fathers had to die for them...
"You must make sacrifices,
market would not stand farther delays
and, you know, Europe waits for us,
exchange will rise, our welfare will grow up
at the price of a few millions out of work
our Nation will rise again!"
"Fuck the market and its slaves,
we want to live our life, before it's too late!
We want to stop your crusade against freedom,
open your eyes and watch what's going on!
Your money won't be our new religion,
we have different plans...
We won't kneel down in the face of your altar,
we have a revolutionary plan!"
Their God controlled our life yet, all in his hands
They kept on their human sacrifices
to ingratiate themselves with him
It was time for the lambs to rebel
Millions of lambs caught the sacrificial knives
and threw them into fire, and then in the mire
"HAVE YOU HEARD THE NEWS?
THIS NEW GOD IS DEAD!"
"Oh! Wake up! You're sleeping! You were dreaming!"
"Deutsch Mark loosed ground on
U.S.A. Dollar, that is now exchanged
in New York for 1.47 DM.
German Chancellor said
Government will have to increase
the rates of interest and support
German currency.
Italian Prime Minister observed
that this will cause an indiscriminate
rise in prices for Italian people, favouring
French export to Italy, but Spanish
Government assured his help to
the Italian partners to come out from
this difficult situation, by a massive
investment in Italian Liras.
As a rake off, Italy will give up to Spain
part of her share of oranges to be sold in
European Market. So that, Sicilian oranges
growers will have to distruct the extra fruits,
but this is nobody's fault,
it is the Market Law..."
