Dear companionAccept these greetings entrusted to the careOf my errand boyBecause, you see, from here in my ghettoit’s very hard for me to hail youBefore, everything had its orderEven the disorder of childrenBut today, even the rosary is recited backwards
Today, the cornerstone seeks its cornerWitches wander in miniskirtsWhere do all these things come fromAnd where are they goingMy dear companion?
