Silvia |
Oh Silvia |
I was dancing to Michael Jackson, oh Silvia |
When I heard your German accent, oh Silvia |
And I went down on my knees for her majesty |
Your royal highness |
Is that how you shall be adressed? |
Oh her highness |
I’m always at your service, oh her highness |
Will you listen when I now confess |
I’ve been hurting again, a cold black diamond |
The same kind of pain that I had when I was seven |
Do you remember when I shook your hand? |
Oh Silvia |
I took my bike to the cemetery, oh Silvia |
And I claimed my territory, oh Silvia |
Smoked a cigarette, blew smoke rings in the face of Death |
And this town will be cold when it gets hit by a comet |
By the harbor, we found a boat with your name written on it |
And I had blood in my mouth when I spit |
Oh Silvia |
Oh her highness |
I heard you say in some interview that «feminist» |
Was something that didn’t suit you--a lack of interest perhaps |
Or maybe you’re just stupid and inbred |
But I still remember when I saw you as a goddess |
Your picture on my wall so gentle and modest |
Do you see these tears in my face? |
I thought we had a deal |
That the one who falls from grace |
Would be the one to kneel |
Now it’s just you and me, Silvia |
Don’t shed no useless tears |
Oh Silvia, no one will care in a hundred years |
No one will ever forget your name |
They’ll look after your grave |
«But it’s not the same,» you say |
Now it’s just you and me, Silvia |
It’s just you and me |
It’s just you and me |
