Rumours 03:33
RUMOURS If the microwave radiation emitted by the mobiles is capable to modify the proteins in the egg imagine what it can do with the proteins in our brains when we talk through the mobiles. Have you heard? Have you heard? Mobile phone signals cook popcorn Have you heard? Mobile phone signals cook popcorn 4.000 Jews who worked at the twin towers called in sick on 9/11 Have you heard all those internet hoaxes e mail rumours and urban legends? wow! I have heard the last selection of false internet rumours that threaten to take hold as received wisdom Don't be scammed As rolling fictions grow in strength and size * Don't be scammed Rumours are like matter, they can't be destroyed ** Now listen to this Have you heard all those internet hoaxes e mail rumours and urban legends? wow! I have heard a rumour from God saying assemble and come against them and rise up to the battle*** Stuff your ears with rumours! Tell me tell me did you believe the hoax? Tell me tell me why must we be so dumb? You shall hear of wars of wars and rumours of wars*** Tell me tell me Stuff your ears with rumours! Rumours Stuff your ears with rumours! * Line by Jonathan Swift ** Line by John C. Mowen *** Line from The Bible

SECONDHAND LIFETIME I've been down so long I don´t ´t recall being up before I´m stuck inside a suicide crisis I know I´ll never count no I´ll never count I have come to that fatal crossroads I just feel so down I´ll never count I´ll never count I'm in a permanent suicide crisis Oh well I´ll never count no I´ll never count I´ll never ever let you down some say Wait till you make your song then you get a second go I have been so down I´ll never count I´ll never count Though every road has a turning I feel I´ll never count no I´ll never count I´ll never ever let you down some say I no longer want to live in this world I got no idea where I need to go Anywhere is better than this life I now have it all planned out At last you made your song of hope Pray your song Time runs on Heavenly grace arrives I´ll never ever let you down some say

Pantophrenia 04:37
PANTOPHRENIA These pantophrenic days are much too rich they mean much more than I can take Wonder if this head will keep its strength These are times I can't control I play Am I right? Am I wrong? Am I out of place? Should I stop? Should I hate? Should I still have faith? I'm pantophrenic I don´t really care This is not dissociative identity disorder This is not schizophrenia and I´m not suffering from identity-loss I´m just living my life enjoying all those different me's I'm devil and angel and I´m free to be anyone I need Watch him Passions afflict his soul Watch me switching from genius to fool Maybe it´s about chemical equilibrium Maybe It's in the beating of my pulse I call it freedom These pantophrenic days

JASMINE FLOWER Mo Li Hua A beautiful jasmine flower Precious blossoms fill the branch Fragrant and white for everyone's delight Let me come and pick a blossom to give to someone Jasmine flower Oh jasmine flower* Yeah! Maybe someone should say that a jasmine revolution should come to the People's Republic of China You can`t find jasmine flowers in China Can't even write the word jasmine in China ** For deep fear of revolution if you're caught with one in your hand Public Security will arrest you and you'll be charged with inciting subversion Yeah C'mon good people say Mo Li Hua! Mo Li Hua! A beautiful jasmine flower Precious blossoms fill the branch Fragrant and white for everyone's delight Let me come and pick a blossom to give to someone Jasmine flower Oh jasmine flower Ah! Jasmine flower Hey! Don´t get caught with a jasmine flower in China Mo Li Hua! Can´t even write the word jasmine in China Mo Li Hua! * Verses from Jasmine flower (Mo Li Hua), the traditional chinese folk song **Jasmine flowers were used as a symbol during the 2011 Chinese pro-democratic protests

ANGEL HUMMINGBIRD How have we come so far living such a hopeless life Dreaming of fair-haired angels Waiting for better times Riding dark horses blindfolded past the dying sun Watching out for any rising hope Trusting in the Holy Ghost You had your killing licence I was bleeding in pain What the hell If I cant´get an answer I swear it´s gonna drive me insane I had enough Lift your eyes lift your eyes You gotta tell me there's still hope Roll me down and lay me down Love me till the day I die Why not climbing up the Eiffel Tower? Take an angel hummingbird and ride it high across the sky I had enough Kiss you in your late night eyes I will kiss you Ah! Yes I want you so Kiss you in your late night eyes I will kiss you Ah! Yes I want you so Kiss you in your late night eyes I will kiss you ah! kiss you Corsica, Sardinia and the isle of Elba with you on the boat With you in the sun In the sun I will kiss you in your late night eyes I will kiss you I will kiss you Ah! Yes I want you so!

James 04:25
JAMES My brother James was not afraid of pain was not afraid of death He said to me do not believe a word of what they say to you Do not believe a word My brother James was not afraid of pain was not afraid of death He said to me brother don´t you believe a word of what they say to you do not believe a word or all your dreams will be broken all your dreams will be shaken all your dreams will be buried all your dreams will be dead dead! dead! dead! dead! dead! dead! James stay home this morning Don´t touch your motorbike today Can you hear me sweet James? I've loved you so bad I've missed you for so long We won´t forget you ever we´ll love you for ever Do not believe a word of what they say to you do not believe a word do not believe a word or all your dreams will be broken all your dreams will be shaken all your dreams will be buried all your dreams will be dead dead! dead! dead! dead! dead! dead! James! Please don´t go stay James! Stay! James! Don´t go! Stay! Don´t go please James stay with us Don´t go please James Note: The pilot dialogues used in the song are from the 2007 video Collateral Murder leaked by Bradley Manning to Wikileaks in 2009. Blowing the whistle on war crimes is not a crime. We stand with Bradley Manning and Wikileaks.

WAITING Shh… Have you seen Godot? He should be here All the dead voices make a noise like wings Rather they whisper they rustle they murmur what do they say?* I've been waiting for so long my friend It´s alright I can wait Waiting waiting waiting If only we could knock them down Yeah If only we could knock them down What are you waiting for? Not telling you What are you waiting for? Waiting for Godot What are you waiting for? Sing something man! C'mon! What are you waiting for?

We're in no hurry Waiting for Godot On our hands and knees Waiting for Godot No use struggling What are you waiting for? You won´t regret it Waiting for Godot while waiting for Godot He should be here yeah! Alright! You keep waiting for Godot! Waiting waiting waiting I made up my mind to do nothing it´s safer much safer It´s safer much safer *Some of the lines are quotes from Waiting for Godot, by Samuel Beckett
