Zywa Love arrows

Any way the wind blows
that's where people fall in love
until the poison stops working
your loved one pulls out
the arrow and makes you cry

No more sweet words
only the popular songs
about your own pitifulness
the widespread disbelief
in real real love

and the general envy
of cheap sensations, as if
people wish for nothing else
and have nothing more
to offer than that

Beware, wherever you are
there is always a fountain of love
nearby, where the world stands still
from timeless happiness
sealed with a coin

Fellow countrymen, everyone can choose
there is a parliament for sale
     If you don't choose, you don't participate
there are nations, as many as you like
new mums and daddies
     They have plastic thoughts
With a button you open daddy's hand
for this week's pocket money
     Plastic stinks when it melts
There are nice little cars
convertibles and antiques
     Your salary goes to the factory
dogs and little balls: poo
and blood for the car accident
     The factory belongs to all of us
removable intestines
stretchers and body bags
     It stinks when it melts
New is the DeLuxe box
     But love is not plastic
with screeching, screaming and sirens
     Love is not for sale

Zywa Good citizens

Pupils are grown
properly raised
to be good Mouths
in the shopping society

They are hungry
for another life
but there are laws
and police forces

for those who do not participate
and complain about lack
of opportunities, but believe me
I figured it out:

It can't happen here
Mama Mia, not here
Do not worry
We are safe
