Life is Made of Small Nothings

(Monday
I worked with my eyes closed
on Tuesday
I woke up impatient
on Wednesday
I saw my arms in revolt
on Thursday
I fought with my people
on Friday
I knew I would continue
on Saturday
I went to the local fair
another race, another journey
weekend is to gather courage)

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
good evening, boys and girls
good evening, Marys and Johns
in short, good evening, people of all colors
and shapes and sizes
and forgive me the people
who were forgotten
good evening, friends, companions, comrades
life is made of small nothings
life is made of small nothings

There are so many of us who have almost nothing
because there are a few who have almost everything
but it's worth nothing to protest
it's even better to be silent
this is said from an office
by those who think that the headache
is the best solution
to solve delicate situations
life is made of small nothings

And what is certain
is that those who have almost everything
owe everything to those who have very little
but close those ears well
because it's even better to be deaf
this is said paternally
by those who think it's a given
that this will never change
and that it's best to start
getting slapped
life is made of small nothings

I heard that almost everything is worth little
whoever says that is really worth nothing
because don't think that we
will stay here stuck
waiting for the solution
to be served in a jar
with a label: Poison!
it's to be taken since young
by the spoonful
life is made of small nothings
good evening, friends, companions, comrades
life is made of small nothings.
