greece (hellas) - evangelatos lyrics

(intro)

welcome to greece (greek bread brothers)

(chorus)

h to the e l, l to the a s
summertime frappe on the beach
h to the e l, l to the a s
that’s the anthem, get your greek flags up
h to the e l, l to the a s
ferry boat rides and second*hand smoke
h to the e l, l to the a s
that’s the anthem, get your greek flags up

(verse 1)

h to the e l, l to the a s
for sizzle my grikkle, used to swimmale in greece
the home of the trojans
kalamata olives and real feta cheese
i can help if you’re short on these
stop by sparta, the people are nice
greek village life, kafeino where they roll the dice
where everyone has a cousin in chicago
new york, pennsylvania or ohio
raised on the island with donkeys and sheep
where it’s hard to make a dollar ‘cuz we’re all so cheap
this is where they canceled rideshare
‘cuz the yellow taxis weren’t getting a share
and people burn buildings like everywhere
and let’s be clear, if you work here
you’ll be on strike for like half the year
(chorus)

(verse 2)

i do this for my culture, to let ’em know
what a greek look like with a gun in the holster
teach you how to breathe in a room of smokers
or sittin’ out back on the balcony sofa
and i want drachmas, not euros
tax evaders are heros
drink by the liter, break plates on their head
then wonder why modern greece is not far ahead
village election contested by votes
by a couple old men in a room full of smoke
the ruder we are, the more we love you
when we meet, we kiss and hug you
down to earth, never above
overcharge you in the summer
summertime it’s wet on the beach
wintertime it’s wet on the beach
anytime, its wet on the beach in greece
(chorus)

(verse 3)

greece is back, history told through rap
don’t act like you didn’t know that
like i told you don’t come
no, you can come, but bring some girls so we can have some fun
former have not, now i’m on a yacht
cruising like jason and the argonauts
gregoris salamina, across from the palookia
’till 1:00 am, then off to the bazookia
dock at the perama, then athens by night
two packs of smokes looking for a light
olympiakos and aek, frappes and fredos
local olive oil, no store label
kalamata olives and real feta cheese
and i take my salad xoryatiko please
eu crisis left us for dead
but we bounced right back like juvenile said
coming in the summer, one thing that’s great
leaving in the fall, one thing i hate
summer love deflates like a model’s weight
what else can i say about greece? we get busy!
(outro)

see you next summer (greek bread brothers)
