Mono dyo tragoudia eho kai trito molis vgei 

De ksero pou vrika to ptoma mia kai tote itan ekei 

Tora periplanomai ston tafo tis mousikis 

Gia ta dyo tragoudia kai to trito molis vgei 

Enas plousios mou eipe fere kota kai zoumi 

Ftohopaido mou eipe pos de mporei na pei 

Kai tora perimeno san kota to theo epi ti ghi 

Mono dyo tragoudia eho kai trito molis vgei 

De ksero pou vrika to ptoma mia kai tote itan ekei 

Tora periplanomai ston tafo tis mousikis 

Gia ta dyo tragoudia kai to trito molis vgei

Piga sto lefko iko kai rotao ton pyravlo

Here's a direct retranslation of greek#3 from greek back to english. some people thought it'd be fun to read. the english of course is not correct, but I translated it literally. in greek too, s 

Hings sound weird. like, the expression with the 'chicken and juice'. never heard it before! 

I just have two songs and a third one when it comes out* 

I don't know where I found the body** since then it was there 

Now I'm wandering around music's grave 

For the two songs and the third one when it comes out 

Photos 

A rich guy told me "bring a chicken and juice" (!) 

A poor guy told me that he can't tell 

And now I'm waiting like a chicken for God on earth 

I just have two songs and a third one when it comes out 

I don't know where I found the body since it was there then 

Now I'm wandering around music's grave 

For the two songs and the third one when it comes out 

I went to the white house and asked the rocket (!) 

If he ever had a complex or something of the sort 

But he started babbling like he as on tv 

"i don't have just two songs 

What do you want from me? " 

I bought some new, tight bluejeans 

And a 'baglama'*** 

And I told the ladies to be nice to me 

So that I won't feel guilty for not going far 

For the two songs and the third one when it comes out 

* literally 'as soon as' but it would be too long 

** literally 'dead body', cadaver 

*** a very tiny traditional greek guitar-like instrument, a tiny 'bouzouki'
