THE DAY MY GREEN EYES WERE FORGOTTEN

I

I was there and your weren't
that should be enough

Everything burned
even the air that I was breathing burned
such pain
such pleasure

I screamed
I screamed

Open up your eyes---

Everything trembled
I trembled (along with my loins)

But you didn't see it

II

but they were forgotten...
nevertheless you remembered them
and kissed them
those scary
green eyes

and I danced
and their skin was born
and died the next day (green eyes)

but the boys
will always give piano concerts to the girls
but the girls
will sometimes shed their tears over
a sad song

and how could
anybody
deny it
