Y’a tu kelkun d’taxidermé?
Y’a tu kelkun d’l’autre côté?
Y’a tu kelkun kia une sèche toute faite?
Y’a tu kelkun pour m’allumer?
Pas un kelkun kia l’goût de m’brûler
Y’a tu kelkun kia l’goût d’en rire?
Ça fait un bout’ j’ai vu Vizir
‘Vec son chapeau pis son rire
Néo-sorcière-maskarage-tondeuse
Y’a tu kelkun ‘déflaboxé?
C.A.D. ben trop matisé
Y’a tu kelkun kia un problème?
Un p’tit kelkun qui est pu lui-même?
Un p’tit kelkun d’viré kekchose?
On a tous besoin d’kelkun d’autre
Dans mes bras, man
Dans mes bras, man
Check dans l’œil d’la masse
Y’a des symptômes d’harcèlements
Qui l’gagnent ben lentement
Là y’est pogné d’l’intérieur
Y voit pu rien, pousse au désespoir
Tasse-toé de d’là
R’garde-moé même pas
Laisse-moé comme ça
Y’a tu kelkun d’industré?
Kelkun d’empaillé
Kelkun kia une sèche toute faite
Kelkun pour me r’garder
Kelkun pour m’dire enweiye!
Enweiye!
Kelkun pour m’dire enweiye!

Someone's hand is knocking on the wall
Gotta be hanging on to something more
But the room is empty and rather small
Could be me hearing things again
But today it ain't a mind dysfunction
I'm sensing a room intrusion
Please let it be my dog
The knock is picking up speed
Bangs against the four walls
Right inside 'em wreaks a force
Telling me it wants out
It wants out
Speaking physically, all logic's denied
The language heard is only understood
By crazies and mad
They won't even be surprised
To hear me talking like them in a while
Leave me alone
You're scaring the bejesus out of my bones
Leave me alone
No one's been here in a while
The room is empty and so am I
No furniture, no grudges held
Nothing in lighting or writing, what else
No remnants of the world I know
Radios and calendars and no goddam T.V.
So I'll end up alone in a field
Where only I know how to breathe
I'm sticking my middle fingers up my ears
I'm telling myself there's no one here
Scared to run, to weak, to fight
Shutting the sound I don't want to hear
I'm thinking of you
Might as well sing a tune
Concentration, hard to do
The knock is picking up speed
Bangs against the four walls
Right inside 'em wreaks a force
Telling me it wants out
Knocks and noises test my sanity
Tell me how and I'll free them instantly
But still all logic's denied
The language heard is only heard
By crazies and mad
Now they aren't even surprised
To hear me talking like them all the time

Covert Action
04:13

Hypocrisy's the way
What you see is what it ain't
It's so easy to spill the beans
Just say it clear to the listening ear
It's up to you to create the way
What you see is what it ain't
Hypocrisy's the stone age
Now pay!
Play the game, the wheel of fortune
We're all blind did someone notice
Cold front behind our backs
One more stab, again we've been had
By
Covert action, secret faction
Covert action, complications
Covert action resurrection
Behind the screens, create the needs
A little greed will hold your faith
Now you see it, now you don't
You can join the covert club today
Join the club today
Some are born two-faced
Hypocrisy's the modern craze
Each a God who creates the need
For the masses in awe and on their knees

Pace

Meet the man, the talk of the street
He leaves no one quite the same
His game goes on and everyone
Is invited to play along
Once known in the neighbourhood
As a brilliant architect
Designer of roads and avenues
With a family to go home to
You gotta hurt for some people
A vicious crash, a ball of flame
Innocent lives again are claimed
Picked up the phone, they heard him go
Down boy, down boy
Now he's getting very large
And has lost the need to bathe
And shave and change his clothes everyday
And especially work for his pay
And we call him 'BAGABAGA'
Making ABAGABAGA sounds
Guess they don't have names where he is
Has no need for one anyhow
We sure love to watch him go
Most of these people cross the street
Must be his monster voice they fear
Or maybe the maggots in his beard
We kinda like his slower pace
He never rushes like before
I watch him mumble in my face
It's a shame he won't talk anymore

Des toasts, des toasts
Veux-tu ben m'dire qu'est-ce ça fait dans’ sauce
On est une trâllée pis on a pas dix nez
C'est clair, on n'a rien qu'un comme toé
L'autre qui cogne à porte
Veux m'pousser son stock
Man, j'dormais, dégèle
Y'est passé l'heure du troc
C'f'ait insistant
J'mets un pied en avant
J'y lâche un rire dément
À défaut d'être violent
Viens voir ça mon grand
En bas, de où est-ce qu'on reste
Y'a des beignes fluorescents
Le choix est large mais le goût reste inquiétant
Le monde est lette mais personne est menaçant
Trois fois par semaine
Pour perdre la bedaine
On chauffait l'local
On en suait des balles
Le restaurant en bas
De peine et de misère
Attrapait au vol
Fourchettes et salières
Quand je r'pense à tout c'qu'on a enduré
Le mal qu'on s'est donné
On en sort ben pesants
La bouche pleine, maquillée d'condiments
On marche en s'avouant
L'erreur qu'on vient d'commettre, encore une fois....
Y’est tard, y’est tard.
La tête me crie pis j’tiens pu mon corps
Si j’pouvais m’rendre
Plus loin qu’ma chambre
Demain, j’aurais l’air moins mort
Dans l'stationnement
Y'a des cratères géants
Les plus gros s'mesurent
Au lac Michigan
Ou au plombier
Qui a arrêté d'travailler
Perd son chèque le 2
Dans’ machine à Poker
Avec le monde lette on s'ramasse là souvent

I can understand really fast
All that's to do
Slowly break it down into sections
People gathered around from everywhere
Knowing they belong under the same roof
He can recall really well
His mother's breasts
I still can't remember who started
And what was the fight for

Proud owner of a set of wheels
Faster than my sneaker heals
Hear 'em shriek as I hit the breaks
Couldn't care less 'bout all your headaches
I burn the roads, blacken the streets
Make designs no one's ever seen
Pit stop, gimme somethin' leaded
The sixer's getting me revved up
There's an old man in a remote place
Got tires hoggin' up all the space
Don't have to tell him the sky's a mess
From you it sounds so shameless
Man, you could not care less
You couldn't care less
When the tire lines are to erase
I'll meet the price to see them changed
Heave the old, in the pile
Millions have been here so why not I?
It just took a match, look at 'em fry
A priceless painting we've all signed
Long black streak across the sky
I hop in my car and speed out of sight
I'm in my car, my car's in me
We're just fuel injected rusting machines
Won't take the heat 'bout troubling the peace
Won't hear 'bout disturbing you
There's an old man in a remote place
Got tires hoggin' up all the space
Who'd thought he'd become a national disgrace
You could't care less, don't tell him in his face
You could not care less

The Whole Gang
04:05

The Sky is my father
He teaches me, takes care of me
Feeds my questioning
I must take care of him
The Earth is my mother
She raises me and nourishes me
Leave it to another
To break a mother's love
And when we can
We warm each other's cold hands
Inside the lands where
We are one
Melting sin
We are one
Shedding of skin
There's no end to our might
With time we will unite
The Mind is my brother
Says he knows what's right for me
Beyond my questioning
I must take care of him
The Heart is my sister
She don't know wrong from right
Bleeding and broken
Gotta take care of her
This jam's for our grandads
Hear what's become of us
Friends lost in shock
Shock 'em back laughing now
Bring 'em back
We can bring 'em back
Bring 'em back
We can bring 'em
Bring on the whole gang

Compte tenu des déraillés
Climb aboard du train ailé
Y'est là pour t'emmener où tu veux ben aller
Accroche tes bobettes on décolle
Le monde en bas sur le sol
Des p'tites fourmis au matin
S'entre-déjeunent, j'me sens ben plus loin

Ants Have No Chance
04:54

Well, behind my shades i'm spying on your life
And to you it seems you've got things figured right
If only you knew how sweet liberty tastes like
You'd surely lose the will to serve as best as you can
To finally realize that all the years you had
Were stolen from you to reinforce the scam
Now then
Reality is split in two
And the choice is not up to you
They'll do their best to drain all second thoughts
Won't let a word of own opinion leak out
And rank you with the other down and outs
It's strange but it's so comparable
To modern day society
I see it, I see it but I just can't believe it
This minuscule parody
Mass of distorted creatures
All waiting fresh new orders
Highway trenched in the sand
Constant rush hour
The sight of this dismay
Makes me think, makes me want to say
You, ants, are maybe very strong
But in your heads, there's nothing going on
A queen to lay down the lines
She knows how to lie
She's on the throne and there's no reason why
A whole colony of tiny armies
Should be told what to say and what to see
Ants have no chance
They don't feel nothing
Just work and don't be late
Ants define most properly
The meaning of conformity
It's always the same
There's no place for change
The meaning of happiness is to obey
It's strange but it's so comparable
To civilized society
Now they've got the eggs
It was work to lay

Scared stiff in the bathroom
Locks the door, alone at last
Tried to follow her peers
Never could she let them see her now
Passing out in the bathroom
Swollen mind absorbs her fall
Clutches on to the bathtub
As if it were the great terminal train
She wanna crash on a seat
Let it take her up and down her life
She looks around in despair
Swollen eyes make out nothing
Nothing at all
As far as she knows her time has come
Train he takes her to a lower station
Just wish she had another day
No place for air, no time for thought
Train he takes her to the last station
Hear the grinding of the wheels on the battered tracks
Water gushing from everywhere
The train clerk to the passenger "we're there"
Without her bags, climbing down
Stares ahead to see no one's around
Turns to the train, it's nowhere to be found
Feet bleed on the rails
Fresh made scars run like veins
Through desolate plains
Now she wanna ride back home
Run real hard and climb back aboard
And make believe she'd never been gone
Never been gone
The tracks shake, the whistle blows
Another victim to go below

Daymare Come True
05:51
|

I've been arrested in my quest
For a great deal of time
My senses are numb
And I ignore what I've become...
Lifeless
Remember it with me
You know misery loves company
They told me to get out
It was time for me to fly
And learn what is was about
But fill 'em in on the answers, if they came to me
Although it's harder when you don't know
The questions to ask
It's the uprise of my downfall
Of my fall
I owned the earth, the skies, the seas
For me to touch, feel and believe
I could be part of it all
To clearly make it out
I owned a mind to choose my way
To greater heights
End the inner fights
I dreamed I was dreaming, I was dreaming
It cleared away my tiring fears
I saw proof that I'm the only one
To fill the holes I dug on my own
And make a choice
To be my own voice
As to what are my rights and my wrongs
I owned the earth, the skies, the seas
For me to touch, feel and believe
I could freely reply
To the signs of my times
...or part of the feathered kind
Commuting by ways of air
Fly through a cloud and
Crash against the cold bricks of a skyscraper
My will to serve my next of kin
Has hit an all time low
I cut my heart while picking up the pieces
Of a fragmented dream put together
Could free me from my daymare forever

For your love
For your love
I'd give you everything and more and that's for sure
(For your love)
I'd bring you diamond rings and things right to your door
(For your love)
To thrill you with delight,
I'd give you diamonds bright
Double takes I will excite,
Make you dream of me at night
For your love
For your love
For your love
For your love,
For your love
I would give the stars above
For your love,
For your love
I would give you all I could
(For your love)
(For your love)
I'd give the moon if it were mine to give
(For your love)
I'd give the stars and the sun for I live
(For your love)
