Carol For A Simple Man
By Marksikt [G. Petrineanu] & Simon Hultin
Father
– Son, why do you waste your time
In company of beggars, pimps, bastards, criminals,
gypsies, invalids …
starvelings, unvermins…
Drinking wine, eating fish, telling foolish stories?
Son
– Father, who really needs a doctor?
The healthy man or the sick one? Stand up,
Stand up and walk!
– Father, you taught me to stay at home in your
workshop to make chairs, tables, beds and even
coats
I am deeply thankful for everything, you gave me
life, gave me bread and roof over my head.
Please forgive me, I cannot afford to spend
every single day of my life only with these lifeless
woods, I won’t do that…
Father
– Son, why do you waste your time?
Son
– I won’t do that… !
Father
– (beggars, pimps, whores!)
– Father, who really needs a doctor?
The healthy man or the sick one? Sta-nd up,
Stand up and walk!
Father
– (bastards, criminals pack rats!)
Son
– I started to see where nobody is seeing,
Father
– Son, why do you waste your time?
Son
– They listen to me
My words are for them like a cannon
Father
– In bad company of beggars, pimps and bastards!
…(whores, starvelings)
Son
– Cause I love them…
Father
– (whores)
Son
– And I teach them to love them too!
…
– Father, who really needs a doctor?
The healthy man or the sick one? Stand up,
Stand up…
And walk…
