Babelfishing Poetry: "Revenge Is A Kind Of Speech"
Babelfishing Poetry: "Revenge Is A Kind Of Speech"
Hello! Lovely to see you, and woo-hoo, it's Friday already. Hooray! Let's kick off the weekend with some more Babelfishing poetry, where I take song lyrics, run them through an on-line translator such as (but not necessarily) Babelfish, futz around with the punctuation a bit, and wind up with a quirky kind of poem.
This week's song is English gothic rock band Bauhaus' lugubrious "Bela Lugosi's Dead" (watch Bauhaus video here, or listen to San Francisco rock band Until December's rendition here, or listen to industrial metal band The Electric Hellfire Club's version here, or watch video by Italian symphonic black metal band Opera IX's interpretation here, or listen to Brazilian trash metal band Sepultura's rendition here, or listen to French band Nouvelle Vague's version here, or listen to Scottish synth-pop band Chvrches' interpretation here). Enjoy.
Revenge Is A Kind Of Speech
White shark provided black Japanese white.
Back to the price.
Revenge is a kind of speech.
The bat left the wisteria vine.
Human beings in demand.
Black box.
When he lifted his head and lightly patted his head.
But only the fossils don't get off the bridge.
Are you going to spot the spot?
My destination is unresolved
on Tuesday.
Revenge is a speech.
My lord, there's my blood.
You deceived.
Fairground theory.
Bird on his legs.
To be fair,
bird on his paw.
Bird on his legs,
fair.
His leg bird.
Fair.
You cheated.
