I gave her my life – Kaveret

Since the beginning of history
when the world was only in theory
there was no yesterday or later
arguments came, where to put the weather?

but one thing was so clear
that if the lady was stubborn
there was no chance for loving

I gave her my life
went down on my knees
believe me when I say so
I learned the meaning of NO

since then, bridges were built on waters
and the noon was finally invented
the shape of the world was still not found
is it square, triangle or is it round?

but one thing was for certain
her no was a NO
and that closed the curtain

today you’ll find the subject is open
what came first? the egg or the apple?
man says his skies are running out
enough air for everyone? that’s a doubt

maybe one day we’ll get through
if she’ll want we’ll pull through

I gave her my life
went down on my knees
believe me when I say so
I learned the meaning of NO

Self Service – Kaveret

When I was born, long ago, I was small
it happens, it’s natural, it’s common
spent years in parents nest
but only for a trial period
with the hearing, I developed a language
it helped the communication
I have often used combination of words
in hope to explain the situation

I’m not getting mad and not complaining
only telling not to be boring

In kindergarten I grew a mustache
the children suspected me (and I cant blame them)
the society could not tolerate another mistake
so I’ve studied for fashion designing

So I collected responses and a few twitches
I’ve built an image and a bit of character
I filled the void, so I won’t avoid
the connection with the people

And one sunny morning she came to give a statement
she stood there alone, in the customs line
and in a minute she gave me her hand
and we were married, absolutely tax free

And now, the hours are getting shorter
and its been said that my wife is getting older
but according to the mirror (that looks a lot like me)
the factory will soon be closed.
