rolemodels
hey listen downtrotten fighters stand up and raise your voices unlearn your sheepnoises cause i know you really could it's unattainable living they're sheep in wolf clothing so stop your self-loathing when you've got friends all around rolemodels rolemodels have you prance around break from submission they send a false vision they got a virtual decision to make for unassuming prey rolemodels rolemodels have you bowing down ch: as you look to them to guide thru all your troubled times in your dispair can they be there? see it runs a one-way line phony pictures of corporate mistresses yes i'm poor and i'm ugly it ain't much to keep me smiling but the problems stop piling when i get up and dance rolemodels rolemodels never hold your hand
my sworn enemy
my sworn enemy i sware you were drinking blood from the veins of my brother and the cup of my mother now my sworn enemy i had you right where i wanted you as the root of all evil and the peril of mankind but then you turn out a fairly nice guy to be around my sworn enemy you had face of the devil and you were to be stopped with the rest of your kind my sworn enemy i despised your name and everything you stood for was profoundly wrong but then you turn out a fairly nice guy to be around my sworn enemy you turned out hard to hate i thought i could break you were a better man we had a good time!
henry the killer
Lesley Stahl, speaking of US sanctions against Iraq: "We have heard that a
half million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died
in Hiroshima. And - and you know, is the price worth it?"
Madeleine Albright: "I think this is a very hard choice, but the price --
we think the price is worth it." - CBS "60 Minutes", May 12, 1996
a song about Henry Kissinger the Killer
and Madeleine Albright the Mass Murderer
--- we know them by the trail of the dead
outsource their lives and sleep well
rule and not care who is dead
cause we are all just like you
we are all children too
draw broad lines and sell yourself
the destinies you manifest
and we resign to your plan
we bow down to the man
take a flight down and account for
all the thousands that are no more
what if it's someone you love
what if it were your only son
chorus politics of power
uno reduce them to a number
violence is justice
and to what end? (where does it stop?)
instill fear and you'll be blessed
fund your jobs and mute the dissidents
we see thru your old disguise
we see no truth in your lies
chorus hear the sound of torture
två in your highest tower
smell the burning people
i know i can
"If love is blind, patriotism has lost all five senses." - William Blum -

ivalo
lucky me. my life is worth a hundred africans. and valued at fifty-five palestinians. i do the math as Reuters too and I know my price. i am not disheartened by that i'm half an american and I fail to give in that I'm this special if all this madness can stress, we're all equal, a sequel news agencys are filling me with a western view one could only wish that what they report is true the trust in you to explain the world, but you distort the game lull to sleep and appear diverse, but you're all the same and I fail to believe that we're this special if all this madness can stress, we're all equal, a sequel c: yes i know there is no real choice left just the amount of freedom you choose to give away i know i will be smiling and laughing all the way, i know, we know and I fail to believe that we're this special if all this sadness can stress, we're all equal, a sequel "It is an appearance of diversity with uniformity of goal." - Noam Chomsky on western media

the quiet will rise from the cracks of broken homes and railroad tracks the decay swells underneath it will tear apart this lonely street the quiet will rise and there'll be no more quiet as they pass the microphone not underground but in your home generations left alone ch1 we are the victims of ourselves we're bound and broke with everything got genitals in a magazine flooded is my pool of waste uncared in this mindless haste Cipramil® my guiding star will never drain this reservoir ch2 we are the victims of our times we're bound and broke with all our lies got ab machines on my tv screen end cause all i had to give end was never quite enough ...

Enlighten my path you chosen one
Enlighten my way i am your son
The power that they invest in you
The power that they swore was true (the Force)
Follow the pain of followers
And worship the crowd of worshippers
In vain i call your helping hand
Unveiled to be just made of man (Uncloaked)
ch; he is a god and i'm a former believer
vast is the hope that i wasted on him
of all the things that i said believe in
all of that force i found in me
Richness of life producing you
Vastness of death unanswered too
How could our hearts be lifted to (minds) (ascended)
The goodness in man so real and true (spirit) (so)
bulletproof
(petroskoi)(shadrach)
how to survive in this imperfect world
how to shrug off the weight of it all
you can say i'm a part of the problem but stop (it's fair to say)
i want to you to show me someone who is not (please can you)
got nails in my coffin as you do too
i just don't understand how it's stopping you
the dispair, the heart-break, the tears that we shed
are all the worth the trouble to me now today
bridge: do what you do
i'm just fine
i'd rather not care
than constantly whine
ch; happy here with no teeth
so glad that you made it here
if all i had was this space and this time
it would be enough for me
how to keep on smiling when it's all going wrong
how to rise up and keep staying strong
shadrach my man has (kindly) showed me the way
this capitalistically-challenged-young-man
come what may - i'm always bulletproof with this
travelaway
it's time to travelaway and it's not my business whether you stay
i don't want to be a software developer

paint a picture using water
something i've been taught to do
shift (turn) the blame upon my fathers
the worst of all time are my kind
there's no doubt we are the Devil (demon)
i have this case all figured out
hope the surge of good Mohammed
will be more than we were all about
ch Testimonial
or 1) 400 years on trial
us 2) my white face on trial
-- 3) christians on trial
--
-- time to be a man and face the blame
-- time to clear the desk and fade away
-- time to change the lead and take the blame
i found (see) thru our propaganda
a case of winner's history
so dismount your racist high horse
there's no "enlightment" here I see
testimonial - i wash my hands to rinse the blood
but they won't come clean
the Devil is my name (notchild)
"For 400 years the white man killed us, tortured us, robbed us of
our names and justice, raped our women and burned our houses -
and you are _questioning_ that they are the devil? You have to
prove yourself..." - Muhammad Ali 1971

O.SL.O [my.ill-faith]
hey optimist minimize my fear
our best will never lead us here (wake / lift)
carry us over time
masses of men alive
did you know
you can fight tear gas
but the rules will never change
hey we can go light up Prague
demonstrate in the yard
don't say that it's all we are
the wheel will just spin and kill us running
did you know
we are bystanders
and the rules will never change
ch; hesitate.all in vain.even i.am to blame.
i'm a man.yes i am
see it all.though we might care.efficiency will never share.
i'm a man.grain of sand
all in all it's all we are
all in all it's all we have
all in all i'm all we have
indifference and denial
temptation to stand in file
don't give in just do what's right
there's never an useless fight my brother
did you know
you are my heroes
but it doesn't mean we'll never win
c-osa: i never want you to feel, something too rational
be, something that i never wore, a whore
like the rest 85% [ 5% create fantasies
10% don't believe
85% believe in lies]
"solidarity is not about logic, it's about compassion
you rationalize and fail to see the fragile state of this moment.
you choose not to walk in another man's shoes.
even though you talk of hope, your heart doesn't keep it alive.
I see the walk and try to walk it as well."

div ide (blanket vs. xxxx)
he's the one with all the pretty words
i'm the one with mine
he's the one with all the creditcards (mastercard)
i'm the one with none (that's on)
they're the ones who want whatever they want they can buy
we're the ones who dream whenever we dream we can fly
we're the ones who feel whatever we feel it's all inside
they're the ones who own whatever they own it's not my life
/ i never gave a shit about you or me (and you can see it my face)
we can talk and plan whatever we plan they'll play down
they can sit and smile whenever they smile they look fine
they're the ones who make the choices that steer this boat around
we're the ones who take the time to find things without a price
c-osa: (as in confession)
i talk and think i know the world
why the water turns at tide
i bend and hold it all inside (i sink, submit, i )
the worst don't even ever try (i'm the worst as)
oh yes i know that talk is cheap
but cheap is all i ever wear
the means to rise so hard to find ("what are the words i'll nevermind")
surrender nears with time but i'm calm like a bomb and i can't let go
/ if all the things i said about you
/ if only half of them were true (that would really be something)
kill the kids
shoot the kids in the head (fuck israel)
saw the news today and i nearly cried
somebody's child in Ramallah'd died
muslim men on their forefather's land
are now the target for an invasion plan
we all know that it's on but stand aside
chorus:
where's the world when my brother's house is robbed
held in check by the world's only god / worst kind of mob
kill the kids, it's so fun to occupy / great to terrorize
1: talk of peace while you hide the keys and demoralize
2: ask for calm with a stick right in their eye
the devil works in so many ways
safety claims oh they kill kids for days
he throws a rock somewhere in Gaza land
now they put together a funeral band
they all know it's on but can't abide
rotta

we have this huge machine
we built it, we keep it clean
"i'll keep you safe", whispers the giant machine
we ask our large machine
got problems, solve them please
"i will live at last", shouts the machine with fire in its eyes
ahead goes our big machine
cool missiles on the screens
"i will bomb your land
cause it is all i can", says the machine and shrugs its shoulders
* i don't want to have anything to do
* with your plan you don't seem to have a clue
* there's no peace in the violence that you send
* there's no peace cause you would be all useless then.
we feed our big machine

"i just need more war", states the machine with a quirk smile
can't stop our big machine
too large to intervene
"expand, they'll buy our guns
"expand god's chosen ones", laughs the nice machine
