lyrics

(instrumental, ritual)

Erchetai apo ti thalassa, panta apo ti thalassa
Oi palioi to xeroun, oi neoi kitazoun tin efarmogi
Kai i efarmogi leei "eos 40%", kai gelane
(kai gelane)
I thalassa den diavazei efarmoges

I giagia mou evgaze ta rouha (ta rouha)
Dyo ores prin. Panta dyo ores. Panta sosta.

Kataigida, kataigida
Emeis xeroume kai emeis den to leme
Kataigida, kataigida
Giati pios tha akousei mia gria me vrekhmena rouha

Ekeini ti nychta hathikan tessera kaikia
I efarmogi elege eos 40%. Elege psemata.
I giagia mou ithele na miliseis. Kaneis den ti rotise.
(kaneis den ti rotise)
Ego ti rotao tora. Argisa peninta chronia.

(solo bouzouki, ritualistic)
Giagia, poso ora prin?
Dyo. Panta dyo.
(DRUM MACHINE RETURNS, COLDER)

Kataigida, kataigida
Emeis xeroume kai emeis den to leme
Kataigida, kataigida
Giati pios tha akousei mia gria me vrekhmena rouha
