Calm
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Keijo
Lost in a maze
The mess, the bitter task
No way to praise the face
The head with no sense
Calmness equals emptiness!
Nonsense was expressed
Unclear, unfocused
Never to feel the same pain
In my own personal hate!
Calmness Equals Emptiness!
Just useless rage within
Unbound terror while sleeping
Unrequited feelings for being sane
A loveless, bitter, messy cave
Messy cave!
Nonsense was expressed
Unclear, unfocused
Never to feel the same pain
In my own hate!
Why am I
so still?
How shall the days to come be performed?
Why the calmness?
Why not just urge to void and disaster?
Lost in a maze
The mess, the bitter task
No way to praise the face
The head with no sense
Dirty Currency
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Jorma, Keijo
You bought a one way ticket to Brazil
Oh, you wanna go in there and fuck!
You tiny tool seeks for tiny little boys and girls
To fill up your sick little joys
Dirty bucks...
Crowns full of stains...
I wish you get caught
A trip to hell you should have bought
A death sentence should be the consequence
But how to protect then all the little worms?
You abuse,
humilate, violate
Violate under aged lads
You humilate, violate and escape
With the dirty currency of our society
You bought a one way ticket to Brazil
Oh, you wanna go in there and fuck!
You tiny tool seeks for tiny little boys and girls
To fill up your sick little joys
Dirty bucks...
Crowns full of stains...
Bastard Behaviour
Music: Mika, Keijo, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Xena
The raped son of god I was
The bastard son, named as j. christ
Remembered as a pitiful lord
Who enslaved all people in the name of god
In the
name of god
I am your saviour
Follower of
Christian bastard behaviour
The raped son of god I was
Sent out to spread true lies
Born by the sterile mother
The inbreed and the 12 brothers
In the
name of god
I am your saviour
Follower of
Christian bastard behaviour
hallelujah!
In the
name of god
I am your saviour
Follower of
Christian bastard behaviour
Alone at Last
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Keijo
No one shall leave me alone
Not a single person should break me apart
I shall be the hardest shell
I, myself and me are not fragile
None of
them around...
Alone at last!
None of the worshipping losers...
Alone at last!
No-one, no-one with me
No-one can not live without me
I will never be the same
Without someone who is really afraid
None of
them around...
Alone at last!
None of the worshipping losers...
Alone at last!
Ego, an internal way to be great
I believe in you, but you won't get in me!
Total loss of caring around
Alone, at last I am an individual!
lead: Juha
Yeah!
Not a person who might care...
Alone at last!
I will survive all alone...
Alone - and lost!
Drain
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Keijo
Yaaaah!
The bath we live in,
It's fucking contamined...
Call the cleaner, call the firemen!
I want to get rid of the filth!
The whole race: floating in rust
The symbols in the water must be obsolete!
The dirty water around all of us
Polluted by icons
Crosses, churches, stars
Legends and betrayers!
Convenience from the chewed shit,
Living without own ideology
Follow the jester, believe in him!
Find the leader and obey!
A natural pressure on top of the
plug,
The drain could keep us sane
Who is holding us from the infinity?
Is it you, or the whole society?
Who's the blame?
Who's the blame?
Who's the blame?
Who's the blame?
lead: Juha
The plug to be pulled
An ultimate solution
Beliefs to be collapsed
Salvation, the sweet salvation...
Salvation,
The sweet salvation!
Salvation,
The sweet salvation!
Braindead
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Jorma, Keijo
Like they wear you wear
Like they think to do you do
Like they act you act
Like they don't think you don't think
Personality, you don't have single one
Everything in your head is gone
Follow the big business
And fall into the emptiness
Stop not
to think
The only way to not is sink
Do it yourself
You don't need anybody's help
Personality, you don't have single
one
Everything in your head is gone
Follow the big business
And fall into the emptiness
Stop not
to think
The only way to not is sink
Do it yourself
You don't need anybody's help
Narrow Mind
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Jorma, Keijo
You use your traditional mind
Which can not see another kind
A selfish one-way road
That's a serious thing I have to remind
All you
feel is hate
You live for your rage
One way system in your mind
That's the thing we don't like
Can't you see you're not alone
Your brain is still in cradle
All you
feel is hate
You live for your rage
lead: Juha
Is there anything we can make...
Like put there some fucking sake?
We'd like to see you sane
No fucking way some things can't changed!
All you
feel is hate
You live for your rage
Dark Highway
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Keijo
Sounds from outside
Wandering from the concrete walls
Roaming until they're all dead
And I am still awake
Seems so
quiet
Feels so unsilent
Bouncing around
Roaming unbound
Machinery a'la urban dream
The juice of materiality
Seems so
quiet
Feels yet so unsilent
Electricity is spent
Lifeless, but able to breed
Enabling the surge
The endless, bottomless drain
The smell of gas in the air
Feeding the polluting needs
One can's scream when being
surrounded by darkness
While being kept in the depths
Machinery a'la urban dream
The juice of materiality
One can's scream when being
surrounded by darkness
While being kept in the depths
Sounds from outside
Wandering from the concrete walls
Roaming until they're all dead
And I am still awake
Seems so
quiet
Feels so unsilent
Inversion
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Jorma, Keijo
Without thoughts you rise your fist
That gets me really pissed
One black man, twenty white men
Beat him just for being black
What if
you wake up...
Tomorrow being black?
Are you gonna kill yourself?
Or change your policy?
You got to be bold, that's what you have been told!
Everything you do as your leader tells
If you don't beat, you will get beat
When you beat, it grows lots of hate
What if
you wake up...
Tomorrow being black?
Are you gonna kill yourself?
Or change the racial policy?
Y(e)ah!
Without thoughts you rise your
fist
That gets me really pissed
One black man, twenty white men
Beat him just for being black
Thrash!
You got to be bold, that's what you have been told!
Everything you do as your leader tells
If you don't beat, you will get beat
When you beat, it grows lots of hate
What if
you wake up...
Tomorrow being black?
Are you gonna kill yourself?
Or change your policy?
Vanity
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Keijo
Uh!
Can I be the most beautyfull?
Is there any room...
For a perfect person?
The loss of perfection!
Can we find the way...
To the completion?
The completion to fill up...
And enjoy!
The loss
Of perfection!
Go!
lead: Juha
Yeah!
I am the biggest one!
The best fucking...
Human being around!
The loss of perfection!
The loss of perfection!
Super Satan
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Xena, Keijo
Uuuaah!
Join the collective, the holy family
Isolation from individuality
Learn the book, obey the rules
Manipulated like the other fools
The jesus
fucking christ:
The super satan full of lies
You are the lambs,
Inhale the light
No more free speech...
In the nearest sight
Believe the lies...
Or perish in hell
And from the heaven's gates
You are expelled
The jesus
fucking christ:
The super satan full of lies
Holy cross, the symbol of fear
Holy spirit, in front of you appears
Holy book, literally full of crap
Holy man: kill yourself or wake up!
Holy cross, the symbol of fear
Holy spirit, in front of you appears
Holy book, literally full of crap
Holy man: kill yourself or wake up!
Join the collective, the holy family
Isolation from individuality
Learn the book, obey the rules
Manipulated like the other fools
The jesus
fucking christ:
The super satan full of lies
Cartender
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Jorma, Keijo
One big whiskey bottle in your hand
Soon it will run into your head
And what did you do, you fucking nerd
You took your car and made someone dead
Cartender
-
ambassador of death
Cartender -
human insect
Why don't you express...
Your repressed mind with something sane
The combination you use today
Is going to turn against itself
Cartender
-
cruel killer
Cartender -
you fill me with anger
Here's my decent hint
If care a thing about anything
You should think of others too
And not just be such a fool
Iiiaaaai!
lead: Juha
One big whiskey bottle in your hand
Soon it will run into your head
And what did you do, you fucking nerd
You took your car and made someone dead
Cartender
-
ambassador of death
Cartender -
human insect
Cartender -
cruel killer
Cartender -
you fill me with anger
Coldvenience
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Keijo
One individual lies on a floor of an empty room
In an apartment stuffed with functionality and a lonesome fool!
A midget size fridge full of novelties for oral needs
Gorgeous little things to rip off the weakest of us all!
The attic above so heavy that it forces down the roof
Inhalation made less possible by the walls closing by
Noises coming far from below unattaching everything but a soul:
The innermost, claimed to be divine, an object full of faults
A hope for nobody to see
The recession of normality
Loaded with Hotel-TV
Dark thoughts and mortality
Voluntary
way
To drive you less sane
Unexpected reactions
From energetic persons
One individual lies on a floor of an empty room
In an apartment stuffed with functionality and a lonesome fool!
A midget size fridge full of novelties for oral needs
Gorgeous little things to rip off the weakest of us all!
A hope for nobody to see
The recession of normality
Loaded with Hotel-TV
Dark thoughts and mortality
Voluntary
way
To drive you less sane
Unexpected reactions
From energetic persons
Mostly
weak, ruined and ruptured
mental abilities
Unexpected reactions
From dull persons
Abusement Park
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Keijo
Nowhere to move
No fucking place to go to
Around and around, still no goal is found
In my private merry-go-round
I am being
abused...
I am all alone...
My emotions...
Are being torn...
No origin
Nor destination
Just the plane of sanity I am going under
In my intimate roller-coaster
I am being
abused...
I am all alone...
My feelings...
Have been killed...
No way to win
Impossible to beat
The slot-machines of utter darkness
Or the pinball games of pain
My thoughts can not move
Emotions won't run
The inner self, it's stuck in the memories
Which can not be found
Tied into all of these,
These horrifying machines
The park of ultimate self abusement...
Can guarantee a total internal torment
Yaah
Nowhere to move
No fucking place to go to
Around and around, still no goal is found
In my private merry-go-round
No origin
Nor destination
Just the plane of sanity I am going under
In my intimate roller-coaster
Loser
Music: Mika, Rotten Sound
Lyrics: Jorma, Keijo
You put that shit into your veins
To end up your private mortal pains
It will leave in you some stains
No brain, no face and no grace
Or did you
really have them at all?
Did you leave them at a birth stall?
I despise you and the shit you take
And all of the mistakes you have ever
made!
Give all of us a change
And stop taking that fucking nonsense
It will leave in you some stains
Some brain, some face but still no grace
Or did you
really have them at all?
Did you leave them at a birth stall?
I despise you and the shit you take
And all of the mistakes you have ever
made!
The loser inside of
Of your container
Grabbing tighter
Chemicals take over
(Finding the perfect way to grab tighter
Your soul is going to be internally swollen)
