I've been too tired
just tired too tired of being
I've been too tired
just tired too tired of being
Take me under your breast
Take me under your May breast
I've been too tired
just tired too tired of being
I've been too tired
just tired too tired of being
just been too tired man
I fucking feel too tired of being
tired of being
just tired
tired
tired of being
Angels come to me and take me away
I can hear you angels
Come in angels
take him away

The ultimate non-act

Conceptual mexican artist
radical strategy enigmatic
Conceptual art absence
students share secret questions
cut to black
Memory
Resonance
Opacity
as in the best kept secrets
The ultimate non-act
Conceptual narrative attitude
black and white super 8
Undertake think up a piece
about what is not said
Conceptual unknown young artist
concerned with the absolute
emulate visual transparent
self confessed apathy
Complexity
Transparencies
Opacity
as in the best kept secrets
The ultimate non-act
Conceptual approach evoke
half forgotten episode
Secret shared ideas converge
Conceptual exercise screening
about what's been forgotten
People turn out to be
part of a work of art
Security
Reluctancy
Opacity
as in the best kept secrets
The ultimate non-act

Passion
03:28

If I could only travel back to you
I´d come to give you all those
diamonds pearls and gold
that dress the perfect name of passion
If I could only help myself
I´d come to celebrate and honor
every breath and word we shared
in the perfect name of passion

Hey! Here we go again
Once upon a time a young man of american background
thought he had discovered the great secret
The answer to the age old question
asked by every wizard, alchemist and mystic
When big bad shit come no run scream hide
try paint picture of it on wall
Drum to it sing to it dance to it
this give you handle on it
One of these days you're gonna have a visitation
Never give an inch!
Every shaman knows you have to deal
with the fire that's in your audience's eye
I'd rather be a lightning rod than a seismograph
than a seismograph
The present we know is only a movie of the past
movie of the past, movie of the past
Our job is to kiss no ass, no matter how big holy
tempting powerful and white
One of these days you're gonna have a visitation
Medicine man
I have never seen anybody really find the answer
The need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer
If you don’t have faith that there is something down there
pretty soon you’re in the hollow
What we hoped was that we could stop
the coming end of the world
One of these days you're gonna have a visitation
Medicine man

The protester
03:30
|

I don´t like exploitation
I´m not so kin on humiliation
I've been too far from revelation
but now I know what it´s all about
I went to the demonstrations
I heard the voices from the Occupation
we´re breaking open the conversation
a new social organization
Unbadged unidentified police officers
will pepper-spray you even on your wheel-chair
they'll bash your ribs and then arrest you
but you were only sitting on the ground
Banks got bailed out
We got sold out
and this is happening all around the world
They say
work longer, pay more, get less
oh fuck them!
Arguments for public austerity
in the name of corporate prosperity
If they enforced bank regulation
like they do park rules
we wouldn´t be in this mess
I got shot down as ‘blue sky thinker’
Got accused of ‘not living in the real world
No more standing idle
I say
Dream big. Occupy your hopes
The only solution is world revolution
and this is happening all around
We say
Dream big. Occupy your hopes
no more standing idle
Occupy your hopes!
They call it a reflection
of broad based frustration
but everywhere people are losing hope
and they're taking the streets
yeah!
Dream big. Occupy your hopes
Dream big!
The Fake Druids support the Occupy movement. Most lines in this song have been borrowed from Occupy Wall Street slogans.

Why

Why did I let you go?
I´m sinking
sinking like quicksand
sinking like a setting sun
Why did I let you go?
I am sinking
I'm sinking like quicksand
I´m sinking like a setting sun
Why did I let you go?
Why?
Why did I let you go?
I am sinking
I´m sinking fast
I´m sinking like a setting sun
I am sinking
I´m sinking fast
I´m sinking like a setting sun
like a setting sun
like a setting sun

Hey you sexy public servant
I've been following you
I've been through so many things
just to get to you
My pretty legislator
wow! You're just so smart
fuck! The way you lie
you turn me on
I wanna take you home
My sweet horny M. P
I wanna get to you
You are just so adorable
and you do favors too
Come on baby let me love you
just like no one did before
Im gonna drug you and tie you up
and make you scream oh so good
I wanna take you home
My greedy baby kisser
You know you are the best
The way you fake your smile
the way you fake your words
Come let me take you home
I wanna take you home
Well!
my sweet bloodsucking demagogue
You know you are so divine
I love your notion of shared prosperity
the way you screw things up
I wanna take you home
Home!
I wanna take you home
Home!
In politics truth is strictly optional
You are so hot honey
Give me some of that pornography
You're stealing from those that work
giving it to those that won´t
Oh baby! Oh! You turn me on!
Come on!
Come on!
You let me take you home!

Full moon

Hear the howling packs for Wolf moon
For Snow moon the weather is harsh
The end of winter signals at full Crow moon
Soon the robins will arrive
Pink moon in the month of April
Full Flower moon in May
Next comes full Strawberry moon
Let me take you all up there
Let me take you there
Why don´t you follow me to Battlefield Rock
Moon watching
Why not?
Full Thunder moon is violent
Red moon is lazy and wide
The growing season ends with the Harvest moon
The moon is now climbing high
Watch it now
Full Hunter's moon turns bloody
November brings us all the Beaver moon
For Cold moon the chill of winter sets in
it´'s the birthday of the unconquered sun
Why don´t you follow me to Battlefield Rock?
Moon watching
Why not?
Why don´t you take me to Battlefield Rock?
Why not?
The night walked down the sky with the moon in her hand*
Let´s go moon watching!
Why don´t you follow me to Battlefield Rock
Moon watching
And the night walked down the sky with the moon in her hand
*The line "The night walked down the sky with the moon in her hand" is by Frederick Lawrence Knowles

Bill dealed drugs, always gave the best cut
lived with Joan
moved down to Mexico
life was cheaper there, drugs easy to come by
they also had less hassle from the cops
They had William Jr
Burn burn burn!
Underground outlaws
Bill took Spanish lessons
Burn burn burn burn!
The story goes back to 1951
at a party in which they both were really drunk
Bill suggested he and Joan performed
their William Tell act for everyone
Joan says I can´t watch this
Burn, burn, burn!
Turns her head to one side
Can't stand the sight of blood
Burn, burn burn burn!
D. F party Bounty Bar
Drunken game of William Tell
Bill took his pistol
Joan took a glass of liquor
balanced it upon her head
Bill aimed at the glass
Watch him now
I trust you Billy
He aimed the gun and pulled the trigger
put a bullet in her head
Oh man
She died instantly
Watch her now

So much fun!
I'm racing noiselessly along the road
on my all electric motorcycle
I´m gliding with the wind in my face
on my high speed silent motorcycle
I'm through with chrome-crusted screaming cruiser
super-bikes packing car-size engines
The heavy metal thunder weekend warriors’
motorcycle craze is now on the quiet side
Hells Angels, Mongols, Black pistons, Bandidos
I don´t need no Brando, now I am the wild one
Waiting I've been waiting for this very day
when I could come for you
I'm riding silently on electricity
I'm moving fast I´m on my way to you
Don´t need no gas engine
I don´t need no transmission
I'm not a hardcore gear head
I'm on my all electric ride flying to you
So much fun!
I'm gliding quietly along the road
on my all electric motorcycle
I'm on my two wheel high speed magic carpet ride
I'm moving fast to be with you
Waiting, I've been waiting for this very day
when I could come for you
I'm riding silently on electricity
I'm moving fast I´m on my way to you
Don´t need no gas engine
I don´t need no transmission
I'm not a hardcore gear head
I'm on my all electric ride flying to you
