taking the piss

I don’t want to make angry music
I don’t want to shout ugly words
There has always been confusion
Because the truth is held absurd
And every time I touch the beauty
For a moment I exist
Then this money made illusion
Gives the riches to the rich
You’re taking the Piss
You’re taking the Piss
You’re taking the Psss
Your religion is it Kapitalisssm?
And I really respect knowledge
Yes I really tried to learn
But then when I went to college
All my teachers were perverse
Regurgitating falsehoods
It was there I understood
That people aren’t equal
There’s the bad and there’s the good
You’re taking the Piss
You’re taking the Piss
You’re taking the Psss
Your religion is it Kapitalisssm?

Sometimes god is in your heart
And the devil in your head
And you cannot fall apart
But you can get upset
And you know you’ve got to start
But you can’t get out of bed
Cause god is in your heart
And your lover offers sex
Stay in bed, till god is in your head
Stay in bed, till god is in your head
Stay in bed, oh yes
Stay in bed, confess
Stay in bed… the goddess says
They say god made us his image
So my god then is a she
And my devil my reflection
Of the pale damp othery
Sometimes god is in your head
And the goddess in your heart
And you cannot get upset
And you cannot fall apart
Stay in bed cause god is in your head
Stay in bed till god gives you head
Stay in bed, oh yes
Stay in bed, confess
Stay in bed the goddess says
Sometimes bad is in your heart
But the truth is in your head
It feels you’re falling apart
But you know you nah go dead
Don’t want to make a start
Cause the bad is in your heart
Get up yes! No stress
The goddess says
Get up yes the goddess says
Get up yes the goddess says
Get up yes
Get up yes
Get up yes the goddess says
Make love the goddess says

't mooiste meisje
03:00

Hey meisje met je groene muts, je bruine haar
Je fietst door een straatje langs me heen
Ik ben niet ver van hier geboren, ‘t zijn nu flats
M’n oma ook van hier maar m’n moeder is een Zeeuw
Hey meisje met je groene muts, Je stralende ogen
Het is net een sprookje, Oh hij fietst met je mee
K ben zo stoned als als je droomt
Doe gek genoeg dat is gewoon
Je bent het mooiste meisje
Dat ik hier ooit heb gezien
Hey meisje
He meisje met je groene muts
Het was koud het vroor, de eerste maand en dus al donker
En toch jij fietste in het rond, het flessenorgel song
Ik klonk, of was dat andersom, nee niet de koffieshop
Sarasani aan de gracht, chrystal helder ietwat sloom
Het flessenorgel klonk ik zong jij fietste in het rond
Doe gek genoeg dat is gewoon
Dat is gewoon
Je bent het mooiste meisje
Dat ik hier ooit heb gezien

in whose name?

Who’s too blame...
for all the pointless pain?
Who will claim...
responsibility?
Tell me in who’s name,
do we play these games?
If not you,
if not me...
You’re feeling the same same thing
You’re playing the same same thing
You’re thinking the same same thing
You’re wanting the same same thing
You’re being the same same thing
You’re saying the same same thing
You’re feeling the same same thing
Revealing the same same thing

What are you gonne do on judgement day
Will you be in the queue with the most delays ?
Those are the signs for those who possess minds
Are you blind to the times ? Be kind
... Don’t play around on this earth
That wasn’t the reason for your birth, my birth
Emerge a search for the truth, don’t just look in books statistically doomed
By schools of thought derived from laws of fraud
We’ve been caught by a trade-off . Choice .
When we loose we didn’t choose to
Listen to that voice in the head , creeping down the throat
Stomach upset ! and then you play dead , yet…
There is only One and Their last left the Word
But the Word came with birth so when you hear it, you learn
But you don’t , why ? You’re not stoned ! Where’s the Herb ?
Meditate ! Faith comes with work
Tomorrow is too late , you can die today
The world is vibrating the Sound’s not ok
Play away ? Not me I must submit my clay
But what are you gonne do on judgement day ?
What are you gonne do, what are you…
Someone spoke the day of judgement what if it don’t come
I spoke well you are cool then ! Continue in your fun , right ?
But look outside it is midday and i don’t see light ! No it’s not in my mind
Blocks of buildings ! The sun can’t shine through
You’re living in the dark , don’t have a clue what to do
So you’re waiting like a fool , decorating your tools
Dissing the Book , materialism is the path you took
But look…
Life on earth is a waiting room , you can wait ,
Decorate and create your path . No point !
Think it through… See, the Path , Straight , at the end a Grave
With a sign : Don’t be late ! The busses won’t wait
The hook is there if you want the bait
It’s a ticket , one each , like a puzzle put the pieces straight
Have Faith ! Your Soul is at stake , don’t wanne chance the mistake
Of being lead astray , just incase I’ll have to think of something to say
But what are you gonne do on judgement day ?
The choice is with you , noone can ever make you do
Anything if you’re true to the thing within you
Nobody’s got a fucking clue , you just get judged on what you do
What you know what you feel
Drop the profile ! Be realistic !
An artificial mystic , there isn’t or there is !
If there isn’t , no big thing , We die and we can’t think
What if there is ? Shit pass the spliff
Repent ! I thought I knew what it meant
Boom ! The Paradox corrupting
Driving me insane but I can’t let my brain get lame

Mediocrity is all you’ll ever be
Cause you don’t believe what you really feel
Is what you know at birth they intrude with blood
Wasted in the name of the gods
I see you look at me I feel your thought think freak
Because I classify all that I perceive
You doublethink your speak I judge I don’t deceive
I don’t turn my other cheek
Cause they’ve got you on a lead
And you can’t stand to see me free
You could have been me 1 creed
You just wanne see me kneel
You just wane see me bleed
You will never see me not believe
Acknowlodgy
Is what we need
Popularity is what you can’t achieve
Because you’ve lied about and thru-out history
See when you alter truth you change what’s meant to be
And that what is not real
Cause they’ve got you on a lead
And you can’t stand to see me free
Cause they’ve got you on a lead
And you can’t stand to see me free
Cause they’ve got you on a lead
And you can’t stand to see me free
Acknowlodgy
Is what we need
Chorus
Cause they’ve got you on a lead
And you can’t stand to see me free
You could have been me 1 creed
You just want to see me kneel
You just want to see me bleed
You just want to see me kneel
You just want to see me bleed
You will never see me not believe

I
I wish I could fly
Leave you all behind
Pain all this pain in my brain
Driving me insane
Can’t make it go away
So I look for some names to blame
Stuck in my claim in my fame
Why won’t my face rain
Wash away the traces of shame
I am slain, I am sane
I wish I could fly
Leave you all behind
Frustrate call it hate
She’s blatantly disrelated
Prostrate she debates
And awaits all who hail we
Create must she, ache does she
She can’t break free, she can’t relate
She fakes loads, awaits those
Who live honestly
I wish she
Could be at peace
I wish she
Could be with me
Lies all these lies in their eyes
Don’t you realise
They’re making time cry with despise
Purpose won’t suffice
Abide, steal then lie their reply
Love can’t rise but hide
It tries
It wishes wise
Optimised
It’s critisized
The righteous hide
Their plight is nigh
The live their lives by its line
I wish I could fly
I wanne die right

you see what we see
you feel what we need
you act like you don’t know me
you need what we feel
so why don’t you
speak the truth
why don’t you
do what you came here to do
why don’t you
speak the truth
why do you
deny what’s good
you see what we see
so strange
life is so very strange
you know what we know
in fact you know much more
but then you won’t show
that what you came here for
so why don’t you
speak the truth
why don’t you
do what you came here to do
why don’t you
speak the truth
why do you
deny what’s good
you gave them gold
they don’t recognize it
give them bronze
make sure you shine it
you see what I see

Singing singing singing for life
Wisdom getting wiser
Singing singing singing for life
Wisdom getting wider
I look into your eyes and its hits me hurts me child
Unnecessary hiding you are truly bright
Not because I say so what do you feel deep inside
Well then am I not right?!
Singing singing singing for life
Wisdom getting wiser
Singing singing singing for life
Wisdom getting wider
Why do we hide when we know what we like
How we want it how we feel it
Why are we so scared cuz it hurts but good
Rich food, you’re deluding yourself when you say that you’re hungry
The emptiness drives you insane
Baby you give yourself the pain
Then you complain the way is straight
You swim upstream a mountain glows and then it snows
You dream of me
Then you wake up you stop to feel
Baby please feel the ease
So peaceful
Singing singing singing for life
Wisdom getting wiser
Singing singing singing for life
Wisdom getting wider

Look at me speechless
Vocab has been used
Definition, feeling, thought
Have been abused
Look at me, lonely
But not alone
The thought of you of moments true
Fills up my wretched soul
But now there’s nothing left to say
I gave your love to the world today and I wait
Nothing, nothing left to say
I gave your love and I pray
Look at me crying
Tears are not of pain
Apart from regret and stuff like that
I know that you’re with me I know that I am blessed
There’s no such thing as
Wasting time…
They are lessons in life
When again we’ll do it right
But now there’s nothing left to say
I gave your love to the world today and I wait
Nothing, nothing left to say
I gave your love and I pray
