letra de döder - munly and the lupercalians

there is my soft-boned aunty
who wakes up early everyday
to spit into the milk cans
before she cooks breakfast for the bachelor men
the splotch-handed girl
who tries to wear colorful blouses
by 12 noon she always finds herself
blanching then bleaching due to the looks
and there is my brother
a dog of half my height
he says, “i’ll never return”
he is learned, why do you want my return?

do you believe that i hold you in my powеr?
do you believe what thеy say?
do you believe that you have no power?
or are you afraid of the blame?
everyone’s uncle theo
who entered into the catholic clergy
he cut off all the hoods of his brothers’ cassocks
and there is that one
who lives alone up in his tree
a sentinel to shout my return
what makes him do it, does döder make him do it?

do you believe that i hold you in my power?
do you believe what they say?
do you believe that you have no power?
or are you afraid of the blame?

i wear my cross-hair above my crossed eyes
above my eyes
above my eyes

all the bachelors stand on the town’s edge
protecting all from döder’s return
their stances falling stiff and lazy
as the cold seeps through their warm-weather clothes
the ladies make rueful faces
the crocheting clacks make their heads swim
they blink hard at the other scarves
that are longer than the ones we’re working on
and there’s that whole family
they’re holding each other under their front porch
connecting the dots of their freckles
they have a sad kind of sadness
as they are waiting for döder’s return
do you believe that i hold you in my power?
do you believe what they say?
do you believe that you have no power?
or are you afraid of the blame?
