Worship Him
03:41
|

A divine creator
A burning desire
To grow His empire
For ever and ever
Resources He seizes
Water, metals and trees
So that His factories
Produce merchandises
Owner of capital
A father to us all
Grants us work as we crawl
Begging for gentle thrall
We are but lice to Him
Yet there is wool to trim
On our back and our limbs
Our lives won’t be so grim
Workers of the world unite
Chant his glory, pray his might
Bow to your godlike master
Submit to his higher power
Superhuman entity
Richer than you’ll ever be
Ten million years of minimal wage
Stir up jealousy and rage
Spewing lies you criticize
Venomous, you unionize
You want to bring Him down
Cut His head and smash His crown
Workers of the world unite
In His name prepare to fight
Crush all the traitors on strike
Bring Him their heads on a spike

In the dark, in the haze
We grab your hands
To lead you through the maze
And treacherous lands
We cary for you the burden of knowledge
We are here to care
About your welfare
Fulfill your desire
Listen to the choir
Dance and drink and laugh and play
Swallow our cheap industry
You don't even have to pray
We'll feed you more than you need
Dance and drink and laugh and play
Until death just be happy
Nothing wicked comes this way
You'll never have to worry
Hurry up and join the race
Make yourself a plastic face
Buy yourself a perfect life
Plastic husband, plastic wife
It's all safe and clean in here
There is nothing you could fear
Enjoy syndrom nothingness
Compulsory ugliness
Now you have freedom from choice
Just listen to our voice
We dig, we build, we craft, we sell
You buy, you eat, you smile, you die
We destroy and we rebuild
We shape the world for you to live
Peaceful, happy, trust us, love us
From the cradle to the grave
When our weakness shows
We will make new vows
You may find it strange
But nothing will change
There is nothing you can do
Because you like it too
We will hypnotise
We will feed you lies
You'll love to believe
Sweet dreams we will give
Sugary drink to sip
And you'll go back to sleep

Landlords of chaos
03:03
|
|||
Midnight rings at the bellfry
Still you cannot close your eyes
As a new month has begun
You know they’ll be here by dawn
Masters of the neighborhood
Greedy thieves, up to no good
They’ll collect your hard-earned cash
And fly right back to their stash
Landlords of chaos
All houses belong to them
Where the fuck does this come from?
Capitalist vampires
Properties they acquired
They made a smart investment
Now you must pay them a rent
If you don’t, they’ll kick you out
Leave you to a deadly rout
Landlords of chaos
They’ll call the cops
To smash the door
Like human mops
They’ll clear the floor
Dumped in the streets
In a single breath
No bed, no sheets
You’ll freeze to death
Landlords of chaos will bleed you dry
Landlord of chaos won’t hear you cry
Chaos!

Santa's claws
04:06
|
|||
Horrendous nightmare, relentless abuse
Just because you wear the wrong clothes and shoes
Well dressed tormentors beat you everyday
Endure these horrors, think of Christmas day
Your only relief from this crushing grief
Well behaved and obedient, you’ll be granted what you wish
You just have to be patient, and put up with your anguish
Finally the day is here, yet you cannot tame the fear
Has Santa remembered you? Or will he skip this year too?
Surprise…
Santa’s claws tear apart all your dreams and illusions
Merit and equality are no more than fictions
You’re stuck in a pit of tar, up above, no lucky star
Expect no morality, that’s ice-cold reality
Forsaken
Forever
You go back to school, these spoiled filthy brats
Are all still as cruel - brand new baseball bats
To beat you harder than they ever did
Santa seems nicer to nasty rich kids
"There’s no reason anymore to believe your Christmas lore
Just a stupid fairytale a scam on a world-wide scale
All your values and wisdo: a bunch of lies to conform
Far too long have I been tame, count me out I quit the game"
Uprise…
Santa’s claws tear apart all your dreams and illusions
Respect and equality are no more than fictions
There’s nothing for you to win as you try hard to fit in
Born in the wrong family that’s ice-cold reality

Chemical welfare
04:11
|
|||
Boredom, frustration
Power, submission
Rat race, alienation
No hope, depression
Numb emotions, contradictions, competition, perpetual motion
Feeling low ?
Don’t give up on your will to grow
Stop thinking
Erase the cause of suffering
Chemistry
A remedy for misery
Destruction
Useless synaptic connections
I'm going nowhere
So out of despair
I swallow the pill
In order to heal
Sudden, my sorrow, my anguish,
The burden of my mind, they vanish
I don't feel anything anymore
I'm much more happier than before
When I'm feeling low
The pills I swallow
I no longer care
Chemical welfare

Brutal backlash
04:58
|
|||
5 years old, and already worn
Hard slaps on your face everyday
Don’t expect anything but scorn
« You filthy brat », that’s what they say
Kill, kill, kill your family
They’ve already fucked up your mind
Kill, kill, kill your family
You’ve got no reason to be kind
Kiil!
Locked up in a gloomy classroom
You see the smug look on their face
And feel you can’t escape your doom
They tell you you're a basket case
Burn, burn, burn your fucking school
Why should you put up with this shit?
Burn, burn, burn your fucking school
Prove them right, you’re a sick misfit
Burn!
You work your ass off at the plant
Yet you're an overpaid loafer
The head won’t stop his stupid rant
Shut him up with your screwdriver
Stab, stab, stab your filthy boss
End this flow of poisonous spite
Stab, stab, stab your filthy boss
Rid the world of this parasite
Stab!
Brutal backlash
He says you should tighten your belt
Even though the wealthy get more
You know, the country's deep in dept
« We can’t afford to treat your sore »
Shoot, shoot, shoot your president
And gun down your whole government
Shoot, shoot, shoot your president
That will settle your little dissent
Shoot!

For centuries we have toiled under duress
All life long and Left to die in wretchedess
Dehumanized, you call us elves
Hit, brutalized, we hate ourselves
Child labor and slavery
The price of your luxury
All year long we craft the shitty things you buy
To desperately fill your meaningless lives
In december, intense cravings
Make you squander all your savings
Sickening consuming spree
Blood under the christmas tree
All around the world
Tyranny unfurled
Bloody coercion
Social destruction
Scattered through the continents
Isolated equipments
Oil platforms, refineries
Rare-earth mines and factories
We all felt we were alone
Too few for rebellion
Kept our nose to the grindstone
’Til the rise of the union
No more cheap workers
Those days over
Capitalist thieves
Pay for your mischieves
We’re done crawling on our knees
Today we rise up and seize
All the means of production
Overthrow your oppression
Oblivious exploitation
For selfish jubilation
You could never get enough
Endless stream of fancy stuff
No presents for you this year
You’ll cry when you discover
In the shops, the empty shelves
But that’s freedom for the elves

For your own good
04:08
|

Perfect system engineered
For your own good
Progress is achieved
Misery has disappeared
End of all feuds
Happiness retrieved
Go to work, obey orders
For your own good
From idleness freed
Do not question your leaders
For your own good
Peace is guaranteed
Capitalists rule your whole life
Everything’s under control
Chances to beg for jobs are rife
That’s why we must cut the dole
Trickle down economics work
There’s no reason to protest
Yet some troublemakers still lurk
Put insurrection to rest
Security of property
Necessary for liberty
Protecting the ruling class
For your own good
They provide for you
Suspicious laboring mass
Up to no good
But they have no clue
Repression of sedition
For your own good
Police on alert
Equipped with deadly weapons
For your own good
Rebels will be hurt
Nip them in the bud
Crush them in cold blood
No judge, no jury
Instant penalty
Bullet in the head
Revolt must not spread

Radicool

There’s only two sides to the barricade
Disagree with me: you’re an enemy
No victory without unity
Then for you will slide the guillotine blade
When revolution defeats oppression
Stay in the line, and you will be fine
Let me lecture you with my word salad
I have thought it through, totally valid
There’s only one fight that’s legitimate
Your claims are worthless, you’re weak and spineless
Follow my lead, don’t plant your own seed
You’re a parasite, there’s no time to waste
Seducing the fool, I’m so radicool
I love to preach, applause to my speech
Your thinking is flawed, don’t ever question
Just listen and nod, doubting is treason
You’re not radicool enough
I’m only here to show off
I pretend I’m filled with rage
Just to occupy the stage
Radicool
I’m the gatekeeper
Of revolution
The price to enter:
Total submission
I don’t care for liberty
I fight for my own glory
I scorn your mundane yearning
I gloat at the world burning

Edgy misanthropy
03:48
|

I hate you, filthy humans
May you rot in a trashcan
All of you are the same shit
Hear me spill my scorn and wit
Look at you, cancerous scum
Turning earth into a slum
None of you deserve to live
There’s no reason to forgive
Guilty of our demise
I wish you agonize
Lazy thinking disguised
As dark philosophy
Humanity despised
Utmost misanthropy
Who cares if some have power
Use it and subdue others
Who cares if they’re dumping bombs
Stifling those at the bottom
Who cares about history
Oppression for centuries
Who cares? Spit on everyone
Wether they are weak or strong
Don’t bug me with power structures
I’d rather blame human nature
Lazy thinking disguised
As dark philosophy
Humanity despised
Utmost misanthropy
Die!
Have your benefits increased
While your workers broke their spine?
Die, filthy human!
Are you starving and diseased?
Toiling in a coltan mine?
Die, filthy human!
Selling weapons, you’re a champ
You turn countries into hell
Die, filthy human!
Locked in a refugee camp
Your home was blown by a shell
Die, filthy human!
I choose not to take sides
And call for genocide
Lazy thinking disguised
As dark philosophy
Humanity despised
Utmost misanthropy
Lazy thinking disguised
As dark philosophy
Humanity despised
Utmost buffoonery
Die!

The necrosis has begun
Too late to abort
There is no more last resort
Humanity's done
Humans are a global threat
End of life is nigh
They fucked up the whole planet
Everything will die
Apoptosis commando
Planning the end of mankind
Apoptosis commando
Smartest use of human mind
It’s time to settle the strife
And sharpen the blade
In order to preserve life
It is death we spread
Organizing genocide
Of the human race
Till all of them are bled dry
We shall have no rest
Apoptosis commando
Planning the end of mankind
Apoptosis commando
Smartest use of human mind
