Octavo día [English translation]

On the eighth day, God, after working so hard

after checking everything out, in order to relieve tension

He said to himself: "everything is very well, it's time to take a break"

and He went for a walk through the universe

Who could imagine that God Himself, after coming back

would find everything in a hell of a mess

and that He would become another one of the unemployed

in the yearly unemployment rate that grows unstoppably

Since then there are those who have seen Him

travelling through the city

He is waiting patiently for someone

to whom at least peacefully chat with

In the meantime this world turns and turns

with no way to stop it

and down here a few control us

as if we were chess pieces

I'm not the kind of idiot

who let's herself be persuaded

but I'm telling the truth

and even a blind person can see that

Lacking a job

or just because of the excessive loneliness

God could bear it no more

and went somewhere else

It would be our ruin

we would have no other choice

but to worship Michael Jackson,

Bill Clinton or Tarzan

It's harder being a king without a crown

than a normal person

poor God, who does not appear in magazines

He is neither a model, an artist or part of the royal family

In the meantime this world turns and turns

with no way to stop it

and down here a few control us

as if we were chess pieces

I'm not the kind of idiot

who let's herself be persuaded

but I'm telling the truth

and even a blind person can see that
