Jan Budař a Eliščin Band - Nobody knows what comes after death

Nobody knows what comes after death


nobody’s forcing you

a touch from death

as if bewitched


three deaths today

and all of them just before morning

we can’t cope with this any more

Mother no, Father no, sister no

Vláďa no, Lenka no

maybe Grandpa

but he doesn’t even know

at dawn

what is alone

alone

alone

alone


Girdled with garlic

before breakfast

he’s waiting for her

for his woman


making love after breakfast

delivered in heaven

not accepted

connected with the earth

by their graves

everybody would

also like to get

into heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

through their love

into heaven, heaven, heaven, heaven

alone

alone

alone
