| Here’s a direct retranslation of Greek#3 from Greek back to English.
|
| Some people thought it’d be fun to read. |
| The English of course is not correct,
|
| but I translated it literally. |
| In Greek too, some things sound weird.
|
| Like, the expression with the 'chicken and juice'. |
| Never heard it before!
|
| I just have two songs and a third one when it comes out*
|
| I don’t know where I found the body** since then it was there
|
| Now I’m wandering around music’s grave
|
| For the two songs and the third one when it comes out
|
| A rich guy told me «bring a chicken and juice"(!)
|
| A poor guy told me that he can’t tell
|
| And now I’m waiting like a chicken for God on earth
|
| I just have two songs and a third one when it comes out
|
| I don’t know where I found the body since it was there then
|
| Now I’m wandering around music’s grave
|
| For the two songs and the third one when it comes out
|
| I went to the White House and asked the rocket (!)
|
| If he ever had a complex or something of the sort
|
| but he started babbling like he as on TV
|
| «I don’t have just two songs
|
| What do you want from me?»
|
| I bought some new, tight bluejeans
|
| and a 'baglama'***
|
| And I told the ladies to be nice to me
|
| So that I won’t feel guilty for not going far
|
| For the two songs and the third one when it comes out |
