What kind of literature Kirk wants to grace me with. "The secret of Achilles"... Is it about his heel? Or Tethys' mistake? I wonder. It even has A nice dedicace: To my dear Estefano. Hmmm... [Pre-chorus] "His gaze was wandering No more once it was set. That was the moment Everything fell it place. You know, when things click Right out of the bag, Out of the blue..." [Chorus] Non capisco. Cos'è questo? What are these drawings? Did Kirk draw this? It's almost like on amphoras. Very skillfull. [Vorspiel - 2 bars] [Verse 2] I see now Achilles's secret Is more than an inch too big, While Patrocles's secret Is parking Achilles's rig. Are mine eyes deceiving me? Once again, let me read it. [Pre-chorus] Yes, that is what it says indeed. A collection worse Than the Satyricon. Mine eyes have not deceived me. Several times, over and over I have been reading it. [Chorus, choir] Vaffanculo, Spokermann. Is this what you take me for? Is this what you're standing for? I really expected more. [Instrumental bridge - Ghammaz section with taqsim - 2 bars] [Ghammaz Section - non-lexical vocalizations] * 嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯... * 嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯... [Verse 3] Or is it, after all, Mine own fault? Mama warned me well [french] Trop de muscle réduira la cervelle. [Pre-chorus] I have trained too much And allowed myself To become a spectacle, But after all, I thought... I thought, after this time, It would be different. I'm tired of all of this. The big screen and its trappings. I'm tired of everything. [Chorus] I get the message now indeed. I understand it all perfectly. If you can't explain this, Then say goodbye to all of it. Yes, to all of it. [start fade out, slow down] [Vorspiel - 2 bars, fadeout] [Outro] * 嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯... * 嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯嗯... [end]
