TIME WITHOUT HER IS WASTED
He will find better things to do
when his lonely nights arrive,
when he steps away, when he steps astray
from the flesh of public eye,
when he stops to live, when he stops to feed
on the words of those outside.
In his heart he is loyal,
when there is no need for loyalty.
In his mind he is moral
when there is nothing left to be done.
While she is all night alone, all night alone …
You see: the time without her is wasted.
When the rain dog starts howling
she knows it has been a while.
The Blind man is jerking off
at the next one to come.
In her heart he is loyal
but he doesn’t care about it.
In her deeds she is moral
but there is nothing left to be done.

WRONG WALTZ FOR IGNORANT PEOPLE
She hanged herself on the bedroom vent,
I guess she preferred it that way.
The next day her neighbours were asking themselves:
God, did we do something wrong?
There was a man on the top floor, with a pit bull and a wife,
they used to argue a lot.
He banged her head with a frying pan,
again and again and again.
Once there lived a quiet, retired couple,
they loved each other and all that.
One day he shot her saying:
Dear, you didn’t dust all the shelves!
THEY LIVED IN PAIN,
THEY DIED IN VAIN.
IT’S ALWAYS THE SAME,
BECAUSE OF THE IGNORANT PEOPLE.
We just watched, trying to feel some regret,
wondering how the next days will end.
One, two, no, three days passed by,
when a hedgehog was hit by a car.

IN THE NAME OF GO(O)DS
I love you babe,
but there’s one thing you should know.
Dust is rotten and that is all I know.
When there’s nothing left to conquer
When there isn’t much to save
My mouth is filled with numbness and my moral won’t obey.
My eyes are full of blindness, and my reason went away.
All the sins and all the violence,
all together in global kindness.
All the malice and all the vices,
are now on sale in local stores.
Dust is rotten and we are the dust,
as for the God, we are his lust.
Dust is rotten and we are the dust,
as for the people, they think they must.
»You should type my name on (the) keyboard,
you should cut it in your veins,
you should write it on the blackboard,
you should burn it on your flesh.«
… be a Go(o)ds’ man.
»You should kill for all the nations,
you should steal to save the poor,
you should sing to sell them records
so they won’t hear they’re doomed.«
… be a Go(o)ds’ man.
»You should pay to save the landlords,
you should fake to keep them cool,
you should scream to be forgotten,
you should vote to let them rule.«

WORLD OF NOTHING
I have a gift for you,
but you ain’t gonna like it.
I have a gift for you and I’m gonna give it to you anyway,
but you ain’t gonna like it.
It’s just a big package of nothing.
It’s just a big package of nothing.
I have a news for you,
but you ain’t gonna like it.
I have news for you and I’ll explain it to you anyway,
but you ain’t gonna like it.
It goes like this: bla, bla, bla, bla, bla …
It goes like this: bla, bla, bla, bla, bla …
Take me with you out of this world of nothing.
Take me with you out of this world of nothing.
Yeah, I’ll guide you through
this world full of nothing.
Yeah, I’ll guide you through if you take me with you anyway,
maybe you will like it.
Let’s start like this: 5,4,3,2,1 … and don’t forget the zero.
Let’s start like this: 5,4,3,2,1 … and don’t forget the zero.
