I remember(Lotta Dufva, Venla Saalo, Ondej Lask)

the first time I went abroad the cockroaches were huge

when I learned to ride a bike

only sad and negative things

when I learned how to play the guitar

that I never learned how to play the guitar

how I rode a bike without hands

and fell down and had an injury

how I couldnt remember anythingbecause of an injury on the head

that I wanted to be a football player

but I was allergic to grass

I remember a turtle in the grass

only sad and negative things?

I remember(Jana Bernkov, Lucia Paprkov, Helena tichov)

Night when I was born

Im closed in my mothers eyes, struck in the vagina

time-scraperspolka-singing strawberries

blown out candles from my first birthday

blown out life

bad teeth from the candies because Ive eaten too much

of them in my life

Ill be blown out like a candle

so soon

I remember(Marek Krl, Kristna Maliov)

I remember soap opera

where Jr. drinks a whisky.

I remember one school trip

when fire was quite risky.

I remember black dog

who ate a white teacher in the night.

I remember Knight of Temple

with strange DNA sample.

And thats all I remember,

my memory of December.

I remember

(Jana Freislebenov, Jan Hrting, Jan Herc)

2/2

I remember when I was born

I was one day in whole worlds Lord.

I remember my mums breasts I sucked them and

I grew fast.

I remember my 1st

school day

I cried and I again want to play.I remember my first kiss

I was five and she was six.

I remember my last one and death came

fast, oh such a fun!

Pink(Lotta Dufva, Venla Saalo, Ondej Lask)

pink pigs exist only in movies, in real life theyre DIRTY

marshmallows can make you sick pink puke!

cotton candy and the puke is even more pink!pink clouds in the red morning sky

pink glasses that we have to take off

lipstick that my grandma wore

raw meat that used to be movie star Babe the pig

childrens clothes for girls who want to be princesses

flowers are always pink in a fairytale Disney land

roses

tulips

princesses

Red(Jana Bernkov, Lucia Paprkov, Helena tichov)

Red hair rivering in the strawberry river

hot blood

bloody Jane

fighting with you in the bulls arena

spitted cherries

hammer and sickle hanging over the horns of raged bulls

and Rudolf the red-nose reindeer

drinking vodkatrembling in rage

I remember(Marek Krl, Kristna Maliov)

Strawberries are dead,

blood is pouring of the head,

blood is spilling on the floor

like the flowers in the fall.

Tomatoes smashed against the wall,

lively heart beats no more!
