"Tantas cosas que empiezan y acaso acaban como un juego, supongo que te hizo gracia encontrar un dibujo al lado del tuyo, lo atribuiste a una casualidad o a un capricho y sólo la segunda vez te diste cuenta que era intencionado y entonces lo miraste despacio, incluso volviste más tarde para mirarlo de nuevo, tomando las precauciones de siempre" Julio Cortázar.

Veintisiete.



(Iba a poner solo un trocito de la letra pero no he podido,
las obras maestras no se muestran por fascículos. Creo)

You’ve heard the story you know how it goes
Once upon a garden we were lovers with no clothes
Fresh from the soil we were beautiful and true
In control of our emotions to till we ate the poison fruit

And now its...

Hard to be
Hard to be
Hard to be
A decent human being

Wait just a minute
You expect me to believe
that all this misbehaving grew from one enchanted tree
And helpless to fight it we should all be satisfied
With the magical explanation for why the living die

And why it’s...

Hard to be
Hard to be
Hard to be
A decent human being

Childbirth is painful toil to grow our food
Ignorance made us hungry
Information made us no goo
Every burden misunderstood

I swung my tassel to the left side of my cap
Knowing after graduation there would be no going back
and no congratulations from my faithful family
some of whom are already fasting to intercede for me

Because it’s... 


Hard to be
Hard to be
Hard to be
A decent human being.
