I've been reading some texts in my dreams
They went for pages
I've been watching the wolves
They broke out from cage

And following dirty old useless clown
Gadjo gets lost in a gypsy part of town

(?)
So be I gagged or bound, lobotimized, sedated
My foundations are too deep to penetrate it
Let's go

Gypsy part of town
A gypsy part of town
Gypsy part of town

So let your girl scouts lip-synch about the freedom
And it's just the way you like them, but you'll see them
(?)
You will see them in a different part of town
(?)
Gadjo gets lost in a gypsy part of town
Let's go

So I kept on reading the texts in my dreams
It went on for ages
I looked at the guards
They were burning stages
I smiled at the world
There'll still be no changes
I winked at the wolves
They broke out of cages
Let's go

Gadjo gets lost in a gypsy part of town

    General Comment:some of it is about how the romani have forever been persecuted and were, in some countries, captured, lobotimized or sterilized even up until the 1970s.
    but they still have a freedom in knowing who they are, whereas the 'free' lip synching girls/ westerners are under a false illusion
