MIND THE GAP

Mind the gap!
Just
mind the gap!
And I ask:
which gap?
I mean,
there's a lot of gaps,
THIS IS A GAP,
WE'RE ALL GAPS.
Language is just a gruyère.
LANGUAGE GAP.

Just jump,
just take your step,
mind the gap,
but don't look at the railway,
don't even ask why is there a gap.
Just talk, talk, talk,
blahblahblah, dadada,

Why are you talking in english?
YOU STUPID SPANISH BOY.

YOU JUST TALK ABOUT BARCELONA. REAL MADRID. TOROS.

DON'T TALK ABOUT GAPS.

Habla en español, HABLA EN ESPAÑOL.

I don't want to talk in spanish,
because i'm talking about gaps.

You know, 'hueco', it sounds like the singer,
it doesn't sound serious.

I'm talking, just talking about Wittgenstein
and the limits of our language.
and the limits of our universe.

And I think, words are blind.
Dialogues are blind.
Monologues are blind.
Speakers are blind.
Blind the gap.

We talk about language
and we just see this bedrock.
"Roca madre", we say in spanish.
You can't destroy it.
You can't kill your mother.
Language is just like it is.

YOU/THEY DON'T EXIST.
There's not even a word for that.
LANGUAGE, BEDROCK,
MOTHER, NATURAL.

We're all gaps.
We're not in this stupid dictionary.
Chairs don't decide whether we exist or not .
We're not natural, but neither are you.

fuck wittgenstein,
and fuck the underground.

DISPARA AL CROMA.
Dispara al diccionario
y dispara a la biblia.
don't SHUT THE FUCK UP!
OPEN YOUR MOUTH
(here's another gap)
AND JUST TALK THE GAP
be the gap they don't want you to be
be the gruyère you want to be
be a kid and speak your own language

and just throw away their grammar books
and their dictionaries.

Mi lengua se mueve. Está viva.
Just translate this.

just, MIND THE GAP!
MIND US!
