Drawn and Quartered
03:23
|
|||
Do you recognize your family
Hanging on the hooks
Decorating cookbooks
It’s delicious so don’t demonize me
There’s no reason for dismay
They were quite stupid anyway
And otherwise we would all starve
Life’s not so bad in the factory farm
See them become drawn and quartered
Soon you’ll follow your family
Hanging on the hooks
Decorating cookbooks
Don’t worry, it’s quick and cruelty-free
Your turn to be drawn and quartered
You’re the ideal meat for us to eat
You’re the perfect breed to satisfy our greed
Your turn to be drawn and quartered
We’re just hungry, not cold-hearted
Drawn and quartered…

Deathmarch
04:47
|

March, march
March ahead!
Straight to your deathbed
Blindmen lead blindmen
Singing their anthem
Fathers sleep with their sons
Singing their anthem songs
Burnmarked with their narrowed truth
Watch the bigots brainwash you
CHORUS
Mothers sleep with their daughters
Swine lead pigs to slaughter
Willing to chant the criar’s
Halfwit mantra in choirs
CHORUS
Chatter in our ears
Chatter in our brain
Feeds the flock’s fears
Compels to obey

Salt the Earth
03:15
|
|||
You never got what you wanted
And your brainwaves got slanted
Now you’re so disenchanted
Hunter is gonna be the hunted
Salt the earth
What’s done will be reversed
Salt the earth
The ground you walk on
Shall be forever… cursed
You’ll be chased where nothing grows
What around comes, around goes
There is a place where nothing grows
It’s where your remains decompose

Panic Paranoia
03:39
|
|||
Panic paranoia
Some kind of psychosis
Panic paranoia
In delirious doses
I flirt with insanity
It twists and turns inside me
Disappear, disappear
Out of my troubled mind
Disappear, I wish
You vanished and died
Panic paranoia
Nightmares at noon
Panic paranoia
Suffocation is soon
I flirt with insanity
It’s harassing my harmony
CHORUS
…out of my troubled mind

Lunacy
03:44
|
|||
Sacred be this revenge
Ritual torn flesh stench
This vengeance is godsend
Not a star or crescent moon
Nor two-piece sacred wood
But a circle of…
Circle of lunacy
Three came in disguise
Fellowmen pay the price
Whilst you sunbathe in paradise
Not a star or crescent moon
Not a veil or Ku Klux hood
But a circle of…
Circle of lunacy
Their machine guns screen
Your ancient torture machine
Rinse in blood and repeat
The circle of lunacy

Siberia
03:28
|
|||
Сибирь, край мира
Холодная могила
В кровь утопила
То где я ходила
Мне сница Сибирь
Черная речка
Я дрожу вечна
Поезд на встречу
Из забытого детства
Черная речка
Я дрожу вечна
На улице страх
Из забытого детства
CHORUS
Красное небо сцёть чëрного снега
Память и мечта смешаются
Встречные поезда вспоминаются
…смешаются

Sinners Like Us
03:10
|
|||
They give no medals for sinners like us
They give no medals for killers like us
They dress them up in uniforms
And ship them to the bullet storm
That’s how the honor is born
CHORUS
They’ll wash us with shame
And ship to the mass grave
For sinners just like you and me
They’ll trash our ashes
And they’ll trash our dusts
We sinned, but not in their name
CHORUS
We didn’t dress in uniforms
And didn’t have our flesh torn
They didn’t like the vows we had sworn
We didn’t wear their colours
Nor fight for their dollars
Join the army, make our mothers mourn

ANGST
02:05
|
|||
Scalpel peel that pout off your face
Inhale funny fumes and back to rat race
There’s no sorrow, only happy thoughts
Obscure your vision, let the cynical rot
Somebody put something in my drink
And it’s affecting the way that I think
Pretty patterns, involuntary laughter
Let their chroloform cure your mood swings
Tinseltowns serving candy substances
Depression becomes series of trances
Scalpel peel that pout off your face
‘Cause world's nothing but a fucking pretty place

Madhouse
03:40
|
|||
When night comes I see him
He walks around our muppet wing
He has a fistful of puppet strings
But he never says a thing
In the madhouse
She’s always talking jibberish
And that makes me so feverish
Skull is full of murder
Convulsions and savage fervor
CHORUS
I heard her again, she was raving
And we trembled in our beds
With fireworks in our heads
When night comes I see him
He walks around our loony bin
He has a fistful of puppet strings
That we crave more than anything

With Razorblades
04:55
|
|||
Gut the little shits, shred them to bits
Cowardly pricks and their vanishing tricks
Linger, linger fingers on your throat’s trigger
Linger, linger fingers and the heap gets bigger
Kill them for me, kill them in my name
With razorblades
Piss on it
Gut the little shits, shred them to bits
With razorblades
With razorblades
