    "Gilgamesh, where are you hurrying to?
    You will never find that life for which you are looking.
    When the gods created man they allotted to him death,
    but life they retained in their own keeping"

    Κλαις, δε σ’ ακούνε
    Ουρλιάζεις, λένε "Που `ναι
    το ουρλιαχτό που μας χαλάει την ησυχία;"
    Και δυναμώνουν μέχρι τέρμα τα ηχεία

    Σκοτώνει η κοινή γνώμη
    σκοτώνει ευγενικά, υποχρεωτικά
    Σκοτώνει η κοινή γνώμη
    όσους δε σκότωσαν οι δρόμοι και τα ναρκωτικά

    Σπας, το γλεντάνε
    Κτυπιέσαι, λένε "Θα `ναι
    ο μανιακός που κάθε τόσο του τη δίνει"
    και σου σερβίρουν για τη φρίκη ασπιρίνη


    You cry, they don't hear you
    You scream, they say "where comes from
    that screaming which disturb our silence?"
    and they max out their speakers.

    Public opinion murders
    murders in a polite way, murders for sure
    Public opinion murders
    all those not killed by living in the streets or by drugs

    You break things, they make fun of it
    You hurt yourself, they say "It'll be
    the maniac who goes crazy from time to time"
    and serve you aspirin as antidote to your freak out.

    "Gilgamesh, where are you hurrying to?
    You will never find that life for which you are looking.
    When the gods created man they allotted to him death,
    but life they retained in their own keeping"
