YOU'VE BEEN TO THE USA, YOU'VE SEEN SHIT!
Artistic printmaking
Krzysztof Świętek
In my sleep I scream: “Up yours, like the whole America!!!”
Someone in my dream says: “You’ve been to the USA, you’ve seen shit!”
And me? Have I been? Sure — but only with a finger on the map.
Then Sokół bursts in, singing in Zenek Martyniuk’s voice:
"Without an American visa,
Go print your crap from fleeceeeeee,
You won’t make a lithographer out of an Amstafffff,
A six-shooter ain’t no print bulletssssss,
‘Cause from America, old man, you gotta haul in dollarssssss,
And only from a snake do cowboys come, they’re yourssssss,
And only from a snake do cowboys come, they’re yourssssss...
Fuck!!! As they say in the USA... Wake up... Pee, coffee,
then I’ll turn on my playlist titled: 'American stuff'..."
