Vienna by the day Graz by midnight We got off the train And took the bus We got off the bus And started walking On that opportune Narrow footpath Soon came the gray car Hurtling at sound speed Too fast to prepare those Not inside that metal cage Passing within a meter of me On that generous puddle Of black and muddy water A great many mugs of which Came splashing on my face And as a bonus, torso and legs In a flash of a moment Decorating my dignity In glorious muddy water Car culture in a nutshell Defiling and murdering Untold beings all around An unrelenting daily ritual Of mud bath and blood bath But it's supposed to be okay Because they didn't mean it
