Anglerfish

no sound, no light, just the deep, silence all over
life beside you, just a shadow, no breeze, no move
in a flash a glowing, far away, but true
come on, let‘s go, finally, another life, a glance
on the track to light - you don‘t look back
on the track to light - you don‘t see destination
on the track to light - you don‘t see traps wide open
on the track to light - you don‘t see anything
come on, let‘s go, faster, ever brighter
shines the gleam, the lantern guides your way
almost there, no look back, almost there, searching for so long
almost there, hope so warm, almost there, sense so intense
on the track to light - you don‘t look back […]
light‘s dead, dark again, facing a maw, teeth flash
spiky bits and deep black, jab jab, jaws close
nothing remains, in the deep, silence all over
slowly treks the anglerfish on the ground
traps wide open
eyes wide open
mouth wide open

Finders Keepers
02:12
|
|||
on a routine night walk
found a muddy coloured painting
by an artist with no name
sneaky steps took it away
finders, keepers - nomadic remains
finders, keepers - nothing remains
settled he sidled off
no questions to be asked
the blank canvas faded out
it won‘t return anymore
lucy shared the story
of a nameless artist
whose life-linking art
was always on the move
finders, keepers, …
the marvel’s dead
long live the marvel
l’art pour l’art pour l’art …

Future Trial
02:29
|
|||
remember the time of waste
when you behaved as if
there would be a second earth
only profit in first place
do you plead guilty?
yes, on behalf of the newborn
do you plead guilty?
yes, on behalf of the unborn
and the sixth extinction
when the lamprey died out
so many million years
one example shows the mess
do you plead guilty? [...]
no time left …
it's our fault …
it's our choice …

Deceit
03:10
|
|||
suddenly they call it crisis
suddenly they unbox money
it’s more than a rash of cash
out of nowhere
to save banks from inflation
to control border traffic
to stop human migration
to fight a virus pandemic
so it becomes clear to you, what the world can do
so it becomes clear to you, what the world could do, if it wanted to
well, we have to understand
that it doesn't want to end
not the starving far from here
not the croaking 'n battle gear
not the children's stomach cramps
not the dying in refugee camps
well, we have to understand
there is no intent to end
so it becomes clear to you, what you secretly knew
that the deadly dirty deceit dresses daily new
if there‘s no prospect of profit they will dump you, too
so it becomes clear to you, what the world could do, if it wanted to
so enraged by this outrageous
bigotry, which reigns for ages
don't tell me about a sudden crunch
the only wish i have 's to punch

Deadly Era
03:27
|
|||
people are cheering without apologies
watching the livestream on 8chan or TV
you'll be indifferent or even feeling relief
watching the livestream on 8chan or TV
bullet proof vest - cop dress
in the mall - on the island
utøya, kassel, el paso, christchurch
the world's a racist shooting gallery
broadcasted slaughter on 8chan or TV
at last you're dead, too, despite complicity
killed by jerks on 8chan or TV
victims are to blame – shame on you
supposedly, supposedly
what a deadly era
like quicksand, like quicksaaaand
you don't feel bothered, while the bullet misses you
hitting always the othered - strange, punk, queer, just scum
isolated case, accompanied by commentary
they take the high ground - young, male, white, ordinary

Poor Snip
02:45
|
|||
just a poor dim snip
hurt white manhood
noone where you feel understood
just a simple answer
for a simple mind
just a little german sucker
can’t understand the world anymore
a new führer you are longing for
who needs science? not you
'cause simple answers will do
shut the fuck up
who needs facts? not you, but me ...
all you've got is a conspiracy theory
shut the fuck up
qAnon, gates foundation and 5G
chemtrails, flat earth, germany is a company
shut the fuck up
you became thousand little suckers
who met in the net
and the press reports on that
microphones and cheers on squares
give you some importance
just a glance
who needs science? not you [...]
so shocked 'cause in your ranks
i saw teachers and friends
listening to your lies first-hand
hate speech floods your chat
inferiority complex, I bet
if you rip off the crowd, we should rip up your head

Françoise

a mulher na música é chata
die frau in der musik ist lästig
a mulher na música incómoda
die frau in der musik ist perfekt
és mais bonito de traz
i need you – oh no
dein stricherjunge geht allein
am schönsten bist du
wenn du gehen musst
um dia triste num ano triste
gostava de ter ein gesicht im rampenlicht – oh yeah
como um chapéu feio
der iro im gesicht – que belle
gostava de ser zu schön für dich
so schön como uma terrorista
totalmente stereo
mono nunca mais
não é fácil ser simples
não há, já não há música
não boogie-woogie antes do jantar

No Art
03:47
|
|||
art is free
art is provocation
not your homophobic songs
not your racist jokes
art’s to criticize
art’s meant to be criticized
art should be free
free of dickheads
like you
