Miss Maggie [English translation]
Miss Maggie [English translation]
Society woman or whores,
often both together,
unremarkable woman, star or fat lump,
females of all kind, I love you.
Even to the worst fucking idiot
I want to dedicate these few verses
stemming from my disgust of men
and their warlike mentality.
'Cause no woman on Earth
will ever be dumber than her brother
nor prouder, nor more dishonest
except maybe Miss Thatcher
Woman, I love you because
as sport turns into war
there are hardly any broads
in the packs of supporters
These fanatics, these raving fools
drunk on hate and beer
worshiping the morons in blue1
calling the bastards in green names
There is no such thing as
and imbecile and murdering she-hooligan
There aren't any even in the UK
except, of course, Miss Thatcher
Woman, I love you because
sitting behind a wheel
you don't turn as bloody stupid
as these morons who thump each other
for a nicked headlight
or a proudly raised finger.
Some can even kill
to save their auto radio.
The V-sign of these idiots,
no woman is gross enough
to use it so liberally
except maybe Miss Thatcher
Woman, I love you because
you won't go to war and die,
because the sight of a firearm
puts no thrill into your ovaries
Because among hunters
who slaughter turtledoves
and sometimes immigrants sons2
I never saw a single female.
No woman is pathetic enough
to polish a gun
and feel invulnerable
except, of course, Miss Thatcher
It is not from feminine brains
that sprung forth the A-bomb
and no woman's hands are stained
by Native American blood.
Palestinians and Armenians
testify from beyond their graves
that a genocide is masculine3
like an SS, a torero
Among this goddamned mankind
murderers are all brothers.
No woman can compete with them
except maybe Miss Thatcher
Finally, woman, I love you the most
for your weakness and your eyes,
whereas the strength of man lies only
in his gun or his cock.
And when Judgement Day will come,
hell will be populated by jerks
playing soccer or war,
doing pissing contests
Me, I'll turn into a dog
if I'm allowed to remain on Earth
and as my daily street light pole
I'll enjoy Miss Thatcher
