Song of Joy

Have mercy on me, sirAllow me to impose on youI have no place to stayAnd my bones are cold right throughI will tell you a storyOf a man and his familyAnd I swear that it is trueTen years ago I met a girl named joyShe was a sweet and happy thingHer eyes were bright blue jewelsAnd we were married in the springI had no idea what happiness and little love couldbringOr what life had in storeBut all things move toward their endAll things move toward their their endOn that you can be sureLa la la la la la la la la laLa la la la la la la la la laThen one morning I awoke to find herweepingAnd for many days to followShe grew so sad and lonelyBecame joy in name onlyWithin her breast there launched an unnamed sorrowAnd a dark and grim force set sail* farewell happy fields ** where joy forever dwells ** hail horrors hail *Was it an act of contrition or some awful premonitionAs if she saw into the heart of her final blood-soakedNightThose lunatic eyes, that hungry kitchen knifeAh, I see sir, that I have your attention!Well, could it be?How often I’ve asked that questionWell, then in quick successionWe had babies, one, two, threeWe called them hilda, hattie and hollyThey were their mother’s childrenTheir eyes were bright blue jewelsAnd they were quiet as a mouseThere was no laughter in the houseNo, not from hilda, hattie or hollyNo wonder, people said, poor motherJoy’s so melancholyWell, one night there came a visitor to our little homeI was visiting a sick friendI was a doctor thenJoy and the girls were on their ownLa la la la la la la la la laLa la la la la la la la la laJoy had been bound with electrical tapeIn her mouth a gagShe’d been stabbed repeatedlyAnd stuffed into a sleeping bagIn their very cots my girls were robbed of theirlivesMethod of murder much the same as my wife’sMethod of murder much the same as my wife’sIt was midnight when I arrived homeSaid to the police on the telephoneSomeone’s taken four innocent livesThey never caught the manHe’s still on the looseIt seems he has done many many moreQuotes john milton on the walls in the victim’s bloodThe police are investigating at tremendous costIn my house he wrote * his red right hand *That, I’m told is from paradise lostThe wind round here gets wicked coldBut my story is nearly toldI fear the morning will bring quite a frostAnd so I’ve left my homeI drift from land to landI am upon your step and you are a family manOutside the vultures wheelThe wolves howl, the serpents hissAnd to extend this small favour, friendWould be the sum of earthly blissDo you reckon me a friend?* the sun to me is dark ** and silent as the moon *Do you, sir, have a room?Are you beckoning me in?La la la la la la la la la laLa la la la la la la la la la

Pesma o Joy

Imajte milosti prema meni, gospodineDozvolite mi da vam oduzmem koji minutNemam gde da prenoćimI kosti si mi se sledenileIspričaću vam pričuO čoveku i njegovoj porodiciKunem se da je svaka reč istinitaPre deset godina upoznao sam devojku po imenu JoyBila je slatka i veselaNjene oči su bili sjajni plavi draguljiI venčali smo se u prolećeNisam ni slutio koliko sreće malo ljubavi može da doneseNiti šta nam život spremaAli sve stvari idu ka svom krajuSve stvari idu ka svom, svom krajuU to možete biti sigurniLa la laLa la laJednoga jutra kada sam se probudio, našao sam je u suzamaI mnogo dana posle togaBila je tako tužna i samaPostala je radost, samo po imenuU njenim grudima bila je bezimena tugaI mračne, sive sile su tu našle svoje mesto*Zbogom srećna i radosna polja**Po kojima je hodala**Živeo užas…živeo*Da li je to bila samo slučajnost ili je bilo predviđanjeKao da je videla u srcu svoju poslednju, krvlju Natopljena noćTe ludačke oči, gladni kuhinjski nožDa gospodine, vidim da sam sada privukao vašu pažnjuPa, da li je zaista bilo mogućeKoliko puta sam se to zapitaoOnda smo za kratko vremeDobili decu…jedno, dvoje, trojeNazvali smo ih Hilda, Heti i HoliBile su deca svoje majke,Sa očima kao sjajni plavi draguljiI bile su tihe kao miševiU kući nije bilo smeha“Nije ni čudo” govorili su ljudi“Njihova jadna majkaJoy je tako tužna”Pa, jedne noći neznanac je došao u našu malu kućuBio sam u poseti bolesnom prijateljuTada sam bio lekarJoy i devojčice su bile sameLa la laLa la laJoy je bila vezana lepljivom trakomUsta su joj bila zapušenaIzbodena je mnogo putaI stavljena u vreću za spavanjeMojim devojčicama je oduzet život u njihovim krevetićimaStradale su na sličan način kao moja ženaStradale su na sličan način kao moja ženaBila je ponoć kada sam stigao kućiRekao sam policiji preko telefona:“Neko je uzeo četri nedužna života”Nikada nisu uhvatili tog čovekaJoš je na slobodiIzgleda da je sve to ponovio mnogo, mnogo putaKrvlju žrtava ispisuje stihove Džona Miltona po zidovimaPolicija i dalje istražuje zločine najbolje što možeU mojoj kući je napisao “njegova crvena desna ruka”To je, kako su mi rekli, deo iz “Izgubljenog raja”Vetar ovde postaje jezivo hladanAli se i moja priča polako bliži krajuIzgleda da će jutro doneti mrazI onda sam napustio svoj domI lutao od grada do gradaSada sam pred vama i vi ste porodičan čovekOvde, napolju, lešinari se valjajuVukovi zavijaju, stene pucajuDa li bi mi učinili malu uslugu, prijateljuZa mene bi to bio blagoslov na zemljiDa li me shvatate, prijatelju*Sunce je za mene mračno**I tiho kao mesec*Da li imate sobu za mene, gospodineDa li bi mi pomogliLa la laLa la la
