Au Revoir, Parasite
04:46

I'm glad to see you shrink
Faster than a blink
And sooner than one might think
Your spaceship starts to sink
Black hole
Bad role
Never
Let go
I'm glad to see you go
Because of your ego
It's better for you to know
You're considered a mosquito
Somewhere in space
There lives an old race
Older than all the universe
They keep justice
Bring fate and peace
I'm glad I found my peace
Have no adversaries
For some justice is doom
For others it means more room
Spaceship
Starts to sink
Parasites
To shrink
More doom
More room

Sheeple

Sunshine, freedom,
Pastures green
All the troubles
Unknown, unseen
Shepherds guard me
I feel secure
Only your mind
Seems to be screwed
Where are the dangers you
Keep talking of?
You better shut you trap
And lift off
You disturb my illusions
Of freedom and peace
You better say sorry and leave
I choose my shepherds
They take good care of me
I give them my excess fur
The system is perfect
I feed abundantly
I live comfortably
I have what I need
What do you mean that the
Fence over there is
Live to keep me within?
What do you mean by your
Weird tale of butchers who are
Eager in murdering me?
Sunshine, freedom,
Pastures green,
Fence is live and
Keeps me in
My illusions
Comfortably
I feed, I breed
And watch the telly
It keeps me focused on
Reaching my goal:
Not to wake up any more
Without the nuisances
I'm feeling safe
Ending up on a dinner plate

Facing Defects
04:43
|
|||
Excuse me, could you please repeat
What you have been saying
My bad I haven't been
Paying enough attention
I've been busy with gazing at
My own reflection
In your sunglasses
Admiring my own greatness
Pull your head out of your own ass
And start to see
Your great kingdom is a speck of dust
A rubbish heap
Someone might drag you down
By your feet from top of your clouds
What glory will you find
Falling down with your face on the ground?
Facing the facts
Facing defects
Facing the facts
Uh-hum!
I was astonished by your enthusiasm
In matters that never mattered
I was astounded by your ignorance
In emergency cases
It's been a shock to me
To see your lack of compassion
It's been a nightmare torture
To witness your brilliance in aggression
Open your eyes now
And start to see
A global suicide
Your road is leading you in
Someone might drag you down
By your feet from top of your clouds
What glory will you find
Falling down with your face on the ground?
Facing the facts
Facing defects
Facing the facts
Uh-hum!
[keys solo]
Open your eyes now
And don't just look but see
A global suicide
Your road is leading you in
Pull your head out of your own ass
And start to see
Your great kingdom is a speck of dust
A rubbish heap
Someone might drag you down
By your feet from top of your clouds
What glory will you find
Falling down with your face on the ground?
Facing the facts
Facing defects
Facing the facts
Uh-hum!

I, Metal
03:57
|
|||
I’m from a new generation
Of living things
Not biological
But fully logical
With a positronic brain
In a metal tank
Hydraulic suspensions,
Screws and bolts
Modelled feelings
Built-in thought patterns
Which must work just like the real thing
The fragile beings
Who without shields
Once tried to live
On the surface
Of this planet
And I know that
It sounds crazy
Still it's true
[solo]
I am a look-a-like
Of my masters
With outwardly appearance
Misleadingly elaborate
With positronic pathways
Controlling everything
Through hydraulic suspensions
On metal frames
Active sensors
Picking up wavelengths
Which were partially unknown
To my Masters
The fragile beings
Who without shields
Once tried to live
On the surface
Of this planet
And I know that
It sounds crazy
Still it's true

Groundling
04:10
|

Bounded by strong earthly chains
- [by strong earthly chains]
All efforts seem to be vain
- [they seem to be vain]
Spread your wings to fly and
Reach the clearest sky
There's no telling how
It might feel to get into those heights
Try as you might you cannot move
- [you cannot move]
All efforts wear you out the more
- [all efforts wear you out the more]
Dreams of yours stay up there
While you are stuck down here
All your firmness starts to
Give its way to apathy
Should one blame Newton's gravity
Why not try to come and set you free?
One more try, maybe it's working this time
Soul wants to break free
Tired of being a groundling
An earth-bound groundling
Groundling

Spacer Song
03:32
|
|||
She immediately knew who I was
Catching sight of my Force Shield's
Dim light around me shimmering
Mesmerized she whispered
"You are a Spacer
From one of the fifty Forbidden Worlds"
What can we say to the Earthmen in space?
And to the Spacers on Earth?
How can we tell you that
Earthmen ain't Spacers and
Spacers won't stick to the Earth?
Staring at me adoringly
She fell in love with my
Force Shield's shimmerings
Started to beg to take her with me
To one of the fifty Spacer Worlds
What would you be there?
Just an Earthwoman in space
A stranger in a Spacer World
How could we tell you that
Earthmen won't make Spacers and
Spacers won't stick to the Earth
They'd rather fly away
Only Earthmen stay
Stick to your globe
[solo]
What can we say to the Earthmen in space?
And to the Spacers on Earth?
How could we explain that
Earthmen ain't Spacers and
Spacers won't stick to one globe?
Only Earthmen stay
Spacers fly away
Out into space!!!

Birth Of A Planet
05:23
|

Quarks' swirling
Draws me in
To the disc of gravity's pulling
Among vortexes
Globes of mass
Fusion starts in centre
Light is seen
(This) Whirling avenue has
More and more lights on
Though they are dulling from my sun
Reborn in the light I'm
Emission collides
My outer spheres are swept and gone
Exploding suns
From the distance
Fill space with mass and
Radiation again
Whirling and circling
Forming new shapes
Atoms are under my shield
Spinning around and swirling
Transforming again
Shielded by my outer spheres
Multiplied the creatures
Have on my surface
Accommodated some new races
Imported new beings
Are from another place
Soon their source they cannot trace...

Karma Day
05:22
|
|||
The experiment
Has come to an end
Subjects are waiting to get destroyed
You take a breath
Before taking steps
Suddenly everything's out of hand
And the devil's on the loose
Mocking you
There are things you can't redo
You've gotta live with it
You got defeated
Though inferiors, they won
You got booby-trapped
By sort of viruses
And your leadership is gone
And the demons are on the loose
Destroying you
There is not much you can do
Organize for a full-blown attack
You must give it a try
But what if in the end it will come back on you
And you will be laughed at?
I see higher laws no-one can sweep away
From high you can fall down
Today is karma payback day...
Realize the weak gets strong
You're tightening your own ropes
In the end it will come back on you
And now you're erasing your own hopes
I see higher laws no-one can sweep aside
From high you can fall down
Today is karma payback day...

Moons Get Loose
04:35
|
|||
Parasitic beings, you've been wasting my time
Drained my energy, took away my prime
I hope to see the door close behind you and you fly...
I will be here when the moons get loose
This is a future that we choose
I don't wanna feel distorting waves of your hive...
I hope to witness your moon collide
With either a black hole or a neutron star
'Tis going to be a day of relief for all...
I can only hope you understand
There's a new start to every end
But this is not meant to start over and over again...
