Tracks



01. Monkey Business

I'm aware of a big disgrace
Hoping that I'm not to late
Gossip has it, rumour says
Politics were not that mad

No one sees the liar
Any nation needs a fool
Most of us don't like it
What the finest ass hole do

Hey, it's crazy what you say
Do you think we would achieve?
Rubbish told in many ways
We should better not believe

Don't you hear the laughter
So ridiculous to see
Most of us ignore it
What the finest ass will do

Say, is it real
Is it really true
That you do, that you say it's no
Jiggery Pokery, no madness
I say, it is real
It is really true
What you do what you say to all
Let us call it Monkey Business

Easy to get fun all day
Idiots create it well
What a kind of comedy
Playing tricks, amusement free

No one sees the liar
Any nation needs a fool
Most of us don't like it
What the finest asshole do

Say, is it real
Is it really true
That you do, that you say it's no
Jiggery Pokery, no madness
I say, it is real
It is really true
What you do what you say to all
Let us call it Monkey Business

02. Perfect Kill

Rotten houses near the plant
Slag, refuse are all around
Acid water, plastic food
Tasty radioactive fruits

The ignorance of the statesmen
Leave the crowd between rage and despair
Contaminated bodies
Slow decay of blood
Don't brood over future
Industry rehearse the perfect kill
Perfect kill, perfect kill
Dead don't die, but remain
Near the heirs of their slaughterers

People want to demonstrate
Businessmen rule the state

They call them terrorist
And police rehearse the perfect kill
Perfect kill, perfect kill
Dead don't die, but remain
Near the heirs of their slaughterers
Fear of the dead
Perfect kill
Fear of the dead
Perfect kill
Fear of the dead
Dead don't die, but remain
Near the heirs of their slaughterers

03. Dead Or Alive

You look out, you see
A man on his knees
Sick of his life
High on crack
Just a wreck dead

You get out, you see
A man's misery
Cracked up his mind
One more mad
One more dead
Dead or alive

Downtown connection
You've got to choose
A deal with hell
Dead or alive

It will burn you out
It wants to smash you down
Caught in trouble, caught in pain
Undercover murderer kills you certainly

Not me, I'll win the fight
Not me, I'll stay alive
Not me, I'll do it right
I can't help myself
Dead or alive
Help me God
Help me please
Help me out
Please don't let me die

04. The Secret Of Our Destiny

Nights of truth, days of dread
Raven disappear
Crystal ball, gypsy's eyes
Want to find it out
Zodiac ritual
Try to show the way

Cross two bones, turn that card
Eternal mystery
Birth and death
What's in between
Gods of time and space
Throw that dice
Midnight mass
Show the human race

Give it up tonight
The secret of eternity
Let me hear it now
The secret of our destiny

Pendulum, work it out
Answer me right now
World's a mess, who can tell
How long will it last
Endless life, sudden death
Who has got the plan

Give it up tonight
The secret of eternity
Let me hear it now
The secret of our destiny

Give it up tonight
The secret of our destiny
Let me hear it now
The secret of our destiny
Come and give it up
The secret of eternity
Let us hear it now
The secret of our destiny

It's him that will come as the Antichrist,
to lead men into the flaming bowels of perdition,
to the bloody end of wickedness,
as Star Wormword hangs blazing in the sky,
as gall gnaws at the vitals of the children as women's wombs give forth monstrosities,
as the works of men's hands turn to blood, then

05. Sicilian Showdown

Betrayal on an island of honourable men
No place to hide when the verdict is done
Vengeance tonight
You should be quiet
When blood will spill
Outrageous fight
They have decided to kill

Clad right in pinstripe; respectable men
Who's gonna stop the vendetta right now
Vengeance tonight
Machineguns ready to sacrifice
Outrageous fight
One's got to fall down
He pays the price

Showdown, time to die
You always gonna loose boy
Time to die

Under a blood-red Sicilian sky
Cruel execution Italian pride
Vengeance tonight
You should be quiet
When blood will spill
Outrageous fight
One's got to fall down
He pays the price

Showdown time to die
You always gonna loose boy
Time to die
Showdown, don't ask why
No matter what you choose boy
Time to die

06. Torture And Pain

Thunder is risin',
Let's break down the wall
Torture and fighting,
Just behind the door

Rape and death out there
The end of pain won't come
Gallows pole out there
Tyranny controls our world

Locked in for no crime,
So knock down the door
Shocked for a lifetime,
That's torment by law

Nations outcry let them out
Don't loose no time
Nations outcry let them out
Never say die

Cruel, no mercy
Persecution
Racial hatred
Actual facts in our time

Noble societies
Crush down the poor
We're the majority
We make'em sure
Thunder is risin',
Let's break down the wall
Torture and fighting,
Just behind the door
Locked in for no crime,
So knock down the door
Shocked for a lifetime,
That's torment by law

07. Mindshock

Seems that from my mind
I can't escape
It plays hide and seek with me
Voices in me say
If you were a man
You would get a stick and smash it down

Run. crash my head against blind walls
Run, crash my head against mind walls
Shock mental shock
Play on my nerves tonight
I got a shock, mental shock

I kill where I please, because
It's all mine in dark allies
I hunt the wildest beauties in town
Normally I rip up bellies

Destinies crumble, bodies run down
Where shadows suck up hungry flesh
Don't kiss me I fear disillions
I'd like my love to die

Run, crash my head against blind walls
Run, crash my head against mind walls
Shock mental shock
Play on my nerves tonight
I'm shocked, mental shock
Come on play on my nerves with me and die

08. Megalomania

Strange but the men
Who made the maze were blind
In vain we seek the way out now
They thought it all
Out many years ago
Nobody noticed the crack of doom

They ravaged mother Earth
To satisfy their greed
They forgot the future
And destroyed the seed

All those great dreams
By which we long live well
Are just illusions in the smoke of hell

What's conceivable
Should happen too
We got the power
We got the rule

Call it Insania
Tragedy reduced to numbers
Megalomania
Let the ocean freeze
Call it Insania
Stopped rotation of the Earth
Megalomania
All movements ends

09. Russian Nights

Warrior, you can't survive
So far from home
In Russian nights
Rumbling gunnery far away
Break the silence
Of Russian nights

No winner nevermore
In such a senseless war
Heroes keep marching on
In Russian nights

Brothers in arms
Forlorn in the cold
In fever and pain,
Passion is gone
Neither fear nor manhood save you
You've lost your way
Now drop your gun

No winner nevermore
In such a senseless war
Heroes keep marching on
In Russian nights

Men at arms
Damned in Russia
Men at arms
Left in the dark
They join the ranks
Blinded they follow one man
Ready to kill, ready to die
A nation shouting a war cry

Men at arms
Damned in Russia
Men at arms
Left in the dark
Of Russian nights

10. Epilogue

[Instrumental]

11. Skid Row

Beg steal borrow desire
A child's heart seemed to expire
No denying a city's a jungle
Rats in the backyard

Big city, hopeless and rough
A child's life stone-cold and tough
Little sneaker, alley sleeper
Prince of the backyard

No career, no tomorrow
A child's day of hunger and sorrow
All dreams lost and decayed
In the dirt of the backyard

Kid from skid row
Tough heart, Hobo

Backstreet boy
Got no joy
But knows how to Cheat on you

Kid from skid row
Backyard, black heart
Kid from skid row
Tough heart, Hobo
