내가 사랑하는 사람이
나에게 말했다
"당신이 필요해요"

그래서
나는 정신을 차리고
길을 걷는다
빗방울까지도 두려워하면서
그것에 맞아 살해되어서는 안되겠기에.

- 베르톨트 브레히트 詩




< Rita Calypso - paper mache >



Twenty houses in a row
eighty people watch a TV show
paper people, cardboard dreams
how unreal the whole thing seems

*
Can we be living in a world made of paper mache
everything is clean and so neat
anything that's wrong can be just swept away
spray it with cologne and the whole world smells sweet

Ice-cream cones and candy bars
swings and things like bicycles and cars
there is a sale on happiness
you buy two and it costs less

Read the papers keep aware
While you're lounging in your leather chair
And if things don't look so good
shake your head and knock on wood

Like paper mache.
