Hey bro, take it slow

You ain't livin' in a video

You're flying low with a high velocity

No doubt, you're stressin' out

That ain't what rock n' roll's about

Get off that one way trip down lonely street

 

Now I know you've been kicked around

You ain't alone in this ugly town

You stick a needle in your arm

You bite the dust, you buy the farm

 

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid

What ya tryin' to do

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey stoopid

They win you lose

Hey, hye, hey, hey, hey stoopid

 

C'mon girl, it's a better day

Get your foot out of that grave

Don't let that one love tear your world apart

C'mon babe, kick that stuff

Show the street it ain't so tough

Quit lyin' around with a crippled, broken heart

 

Now I know you've been seeing red

Don't put a pistol to your head

sometimes your answer's heaven sent

Your way is so damn permanent

 

This ain't your daddy talkin'

You know, I know

Your story ain't so shocking

You know, I know

Blow some steam

C'mon and scream

Man's got his woman to take his seed

He's got the power - oh

She's got the need

She spends her life through pleasing up her man

She feeds him dinner or anything she can

 

She cries alone at night too often

He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

 

Man makes your hair gray

He's your life's mistake

All you're really lookin' for is an even break

 

He lies right at you

You know you hate this game

He slaps you once in a while and you live and love in pain

 

She cries alone at night too often

He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

 

Black eyes all of the time

Don't spend a dime

Clean up this grime

And you there down on your knees begging me please come

Watch me bleed

 

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Only women bleed

Television, religion, social destruction

Sex and drugs, violent seduction

Crystal dawn, ecstatic explosion

Parental advice leads to mental erosion

 

Stronger than never ever before

KMFDM is a drug against war!

 

Line after line

Round after round

Empty shells

Fall to the ground

 

Faster than lightning

High as a kite

Sonic bombardment

Brighter than sunlight

 

Stronger than never ever before

KMFDM is a drug against war!

 

K-M-F-D-M

 

No need for needles

No injection

The substance substitutes

Love and affection

 

Total sedation

Of longing desire

Cremation of senses

In friendly fire

 

Stronger than never ever before

KMFDM is a drug against war!

Stronger than never ever before

KMFDM is a drug against war!

Imagine there's no heaven

It's easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us only sky

Imagine all the people

Living for today...

 

Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion too

Imagine all the people

Living life in peace...

 

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will be as one

 

Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world...

 

You may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will live as one

A wave toward the clearing the sky

 

All this time we're talking and sharing our Rational View

A billion other voices are spreading other news

All this time we're living and trying to understand

Why a billion other choices are making their demands

 

Talk of a Peaceable Kingdom

Talk of a time without fear

The ones we wish would listen

Are never going to hear

 

Justice against The Hanged Man

Knight of Wands against the hour

Swords against the kingdom

Time against The Tower

 

All this time we're shuffling and laying out all our cards

While a billion other dealers are slipping past our guards

All this time we're hoping and praying we all might learn

While a billion other teachers are teaching them how to burn

 

Dream of a Peaceable Kingdom

Dream of a time without war

The ones we wish would hear us

Have heard it all before

 

A wave toward the clearing sky

A wave toward the clearing sky

 

The Hermit against The Lovers

Or the Devil against the Fool

Swords against the kingdom

The Wheel against the rules

 

All this time we're burning like bonfires in the dark

A billion other blazes are shooting off their sparks

Every spark a drifting ember of desire

To fall upon the earth and spark another fire

 

A homeward angel on the fly

A wave toward the clearing sky

Born a poor young country boy- Mother Nature's son

All day long I'm sitting singing songs for everyone.

 

Sit beside a mountain stream- see her waters rise

Listen to the pretty sound of music as she files.

 

Find me in my field of grass- Mother Nature's son

Swaying daisies sing a lazy song beneath the sun.

Thought I was different

But it seems i'm the same

As again i put my

Hand over the flame

Thought i was smarter

As i flew into the sun

But it turned the way

It does with everyone

I don't fly around your fire anymore

Been burned and fallen down

So many times before

I don't fly around your fire anymore

 

I loved the heat

I loved the things

That i forgot

I loved the strings

That tired me down

And cut me off

I was a king i was a moth

With painted wings

Made of cloth

When did the flame

Burn so high and get so hot

I don't fly around your fire anymore

Been burned and fallen down

So many times before

I don't fly around your fire

2112

 

"I lie awake, staring out at the bleakness of Megadon. City and sky become one, merging into a single plane, a vast sea of unbroken grey. The Twin Moons, just two pale orbs as they trace their way across the steely sky. I used to think I had a pretty good life here, just plugging into my machine for the day, then watching Templevision or reading a Temple Paper in the evening.

"My friend Jon always said it was nicer here than under the atmospheric domes of the Outer Planets. We have had peace since 2062, when the surviving planets were banded together under the Red Star of the Solar Federation. The less fortunate gave us a few new moons.

I believed what I was told. I thought it was a good life, I thought I was happy. Then I found something that changed it all..."

 

Anonymous, 2112

 

I. Overture

"And the meek shall inherit the earth."

 

II. Temples of Syrinx

... "The massive grey walls of the Temples rise from the heart of every Federation city. I have always been awed by them, to think that every single facet of every life is regulated and directed from within! Our books, our music, our work and play are all looked after by the benevolent wisdom of the priests..."

 

We've taken care of everything

The words you hear the songs you sing

The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes.

 

It's one for all and all for one

We work together common sons

Never need to wonder how or why.

 

We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx

Our great computers fill the hallowed halls.

We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx

All the gifts of life are held within our walls.

 

Look around this world we made

Equality our stock in trade

Come and join the Brotherhood of Man

Oh what a nice contented world

Let the banners be unfurled

Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand.

 

We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx

Our great computers fill the hallowed halls.

We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx

All the gifts of life are held within our walls.

 

 

III. Discovery

... "Behind my beloved waterfall, in the little room that was hidden beneath the cave, I found it. I brushed away the dust of the years, and picked it up, holding it reverently in my hands. I had no idea what it might be, but it was beautiful" ...

... "I learned to lay my fingers across the wires, and to turn the keys to make them sound differently. As I struck the wires with my other hand, I produced my first harmonious sounds, and soon my own music! How different it could be from the music of the Temples! I can't wait to tell the priests about it! ..."

 

What can this strange device be?

When I touch it, it gives forth a sound

It's got wires that vibrate and give music

What can this thing be that I found?

 

See how it sings like a sad heart

And joyously screams out its pain

Sounds that build high like a mountain

Or notes that fall gently like rain.

 

I can't wait to share this new wonder

The people will all see its light

Let them all make their own music

The Priests praise my name on this night.

 

IV. Presentation

... "In the sudden silence as I finished playing, I looked up to a circle of grim, expressionless faces. Father Brown rose to his feet, and his somnolent voice echoed throughout the silent Temple Hall." ...

... "Instead of the grateful joy that I expected, they were words of quiet rejection! Instead of praise, sullen dismissal. I watched in shock and horror as Father Brown ground my precious instrument to splinters beneath his feet..."

 

I know it's most unusual

To come before you so

But I've found an ancient miracle

I thought that you should know

 

Listen to my music

And hear what it can do

There's something here as strong as life

I know that it will reach you.

 

Yes, we know it's nothing new

It's just a waste of time

We have no need for ancient ways

The world is doing fine

 

Another toy will help destroy

The elder race of man

Forget about your silly whim

It doesn't fit the plan.

 

I can't believe you're saying

These things just can't be true

Our world could use this beauty

Just think what we might do.

 

Listen to my music

And hear what it can do

There's something here as strong as life

I know that it will reach you.

 

Don't annoy us further

We have our work to do.

Just think about the average

What use have they for you?

 

Another toy will help destroy

The elder race of man

Forget about your silly whim

It doesn't fit the plan.

 

V. Oracle: The Dream

... "I guess it was a dream, but even now it all seems so vivid to me. Clearly yet I see the beckoning hand of the oracle as he stood at the summit of the staircase" ...

... "I see still the incredible beauty of the sculptured cities and the pure spirit of man revealed in the lives and works of this world. I was overwhelmed by both wonder and understanding as I saw a completely different way to life, a way that had been crushed by the Federation long ago. I saw now how meaningless life had become with the loss of all these things ..."

 

I wandered home though the silent streets

And fell into a fitful sleep

Escape to realms beyond the night

Dream can't you show me the light?

 

I stand atop a spiral stair

An oracle confronts me there

He leads me on light years away

Through astral nights, galactic days

 

I see the works of gifted hands

That grace this strange and wondrous land

I see the hand of man arise

With hungry mind and open eyes

 

They left the planet long ago

The elder race still learn and grow

Their power grows with purpose strong

To claim the home where they belong

Home, to tear the Temples down...

Home, to change..

 

VI. Soliloquy

... "I have not left this cave for days now, it has become my last refuge in my total despair. I have only the music of the waterfall to comfort me now. I can no longer live under the control of the Federation, but there is no other place to go. My last hope is that with my death I may pass into the world of my dream, and know peace at last."

 

The sleep is still in my eyes

The dream is still in my head

I heave a sigh and sadly smile

And lie a while in bed

I wish that it might come to pass

Not fade like all my dreams

 

Just think of what my life might be

In a world like I have seen

I don't think I can carry on

Carry on this cold and empty life

Oh...noo.

 

My spirits are low in the depths of despair

My lifeblood spills over..

 

VII. The Grand Finale

Attention all Planets of the Solar Federation

Attention all Planets of the Solar Federation

Attention all Planets of the Solar Federation

We have assumed control.

We have assumed control.

We have assumed control.

You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need

You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street

You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed

And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight

You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking.

And after a while, you can work on points for style

Like the club tie, and the firm handshake

A certain look in the eye, and an easy smile

You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to

So that when they turn their backs on you

You'll get the chance to put the knife in.

You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder

You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older

And in the end you'll pack up, fly down south

Hide your head in the sand

Just another sad old man

All alone and dying of cancer.

And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown

And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone

And it's too late to loose the weight you used to need to throw around

So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone

Dragged down by the stone.

I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused

Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used

Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise

If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?

Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending

That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend

And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner

And everythings done under the sun

And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer.

Who was born in a house full of pain

Who was trained not to spit in the fan

Who was told what to do by the man

Who was broken by trained personnel

Who was fitted with collar and chain

Who was given a pat on the back

Who was breaking away from the pack

Who was only a stranger at home

Who was ground down in the end

Who was found dead on the phone

Who was dragged down by the stone.

Remember when you were young,

You shone like the sun.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

Now there's a look in your eyes,

Like black holes in the sky.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

You were caught on the crossfire

Of childhood and stardom,

Blown on the steel breeze.

Come on you target for faraway laughter,

Come on you stranger, you legend, you martyr, and shine!

 

You reached for the secret too soon,

You cried for the moon.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

Threatened by shadows at night,

And exposed in the light.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

Well you wore out your welcome

With random precision,

Rode on the steel breeze.

Come on you raver, you seer of visions,

Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

So, so you think you can tell

Heaven from Hell,

Blue skys from pain.

Can you tell a green field

From a cold steel rail?

A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

 

And did they get you to trade

Your heros for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change?

And did you exchange

A walk on part in the war

For a lead role in a cage?

 

How I wish, how I wish you were here.

We're just two lost souls

Swimming in a fish bowl,

Year after year,

Running over the same old ground.

What have we found?

The same old fears.

Wish you were here.

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.

Where have you been?

It's alright we know where you've been.

You've been in the pipeline, filling in time,

Provided with toys and 'Scouting for Boys'.

You brought a guitar to punish your ma,

And you didn't like school, and you

know you're nobody's fool,

So welcome to the machine.

 

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine.

What did you dream?

It's alright we told you what to dream.

You dreamed of a big star,

He played a mean gituar,

He always ate in the Steak Bar.

He loved to drive in his Jaguar.

So welcome to the Machine.

"Oh my God! What a fabulous room! Are all these your guitars?

[Film in background: "I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to startle you!]

"This place is bigger than our apartment!

[Film: "Let me know when you're entering a room"

"Yes sir!"]

"erm, Can I get a drink of water?

[Film: "I was wondering about ..."]

"You want some, huh?"

[Film: "Yes"]

"Oh wow, look at this tub? Do you wanna take baaaath?"

[Film: "I'll have to find out from Mrs. Bancroft what time she wants to meet us, for her main ..."]

"What are watching?"

[Film: "If you'll just let me know as soon as you can ... Mrs Bancroft" "Mrs Bancroft ..."]

"Hello?"

[Film: "I don't understand ..."]

"Are you feeling okay?..."

 

Day after day, love turns grey

Like the skin of a dying man.

Night after night, we pretend its all right

But I have grown older and

You have grown colder and

Nothing is very much fun any more.

And I can feel one of my turns coming on.

I feel cold as a razor blade,

Tight as a tourniquet,

Dry as a funeral drum.

 

Run to the bedroom,

In the suitcase on the left

You'll find my favorite axe.

Don't look so frightened

This is just a passing phase,

One of my bad days.

Would you like to watch T.V.?

Or get between the sheets?

Or contemplate the silent freeway?

Would you like something to eat?

Would you like to learn to fly?

Would'ya?

Would you like to see me try?

 

Would you like to call the cops?

Do you think it's time I stopped?

Why are you running away?

Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run,

Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run.

You better make your face up in

Your favorite disguise.

With your button down lips and your

Roller blind eyes.

With your empty smile

And your hungry heart.

Feel the bile rising from your guilty past.

With your nerves in tatters

When the cockleshell shatters

And the hammers batter

Down the door.

You'd better run.

 

Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run,

Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run.

You better run all day

And run all night.

Keep your dirty feelings

Deep inside.

And if you're taking your girlfriend

Out tonight

You'd better park the car

Well out of sight.

Cause if they catch you in the back seat

Trying to pick her locks,

They're gonna send you back to mother

In a cardboard box.

You better run. ph34r.gif

If you didn't care what happened to me,

And I didn't care for you,

We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain

Occasionally glancing up through the rain.

Wondering which of the buggars to blame

And watching for pigs on the wing.

I am just a new boy,

Stranger in this town.

Where are all the good times?

Who's gonna show this stranger around?

Ooooh, I need a dirty woman.

Ooooh, I need a dirty girl.

 

Will some cold woman in this desert land

Make me feel like a real man?

Take this rock and roll refugee

Oooh, baby set me free.

 

Ooooh, I need a dirty woman.

Ooooh, I need a dirty girl.

 

[Phone rings..Clink of receiver being lifted]

"Hello..?"

"Yes, a collect call for Mrs. Floyd from Mr. Floyd.

Will you accept the charges from United States?"

[clunk! of phone being put down]

"Oh, He hung up! That's your residence, right? I wonder why he hung up?

Is there supposed to be someone else there besides your wife there to answer?"

[Phone rings again...clunk of receiver being picked up]

"Hello?"

"This is United States calling, are we reaching...

[interrupted by phone being put down]

"See he keeps hanging up, and it's a man answering."

Hello?

Is there anybody in there?

Just nod if you can hear me.

Is there anyone at home?

Come on, now,

I hear you're feeling down.

Well I can ease your pain

Get you on your feet again.

Relax.

I'll need some information first.

Just the basic facts.

Can you show me where it hurts?

 

There is no pain you are receding

A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.

You are only coming through in waves.

Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.

When I was a child I had a fever

My hands felt just like two balloons.

Now I've got that feeling once again

I can't explain you would not understand

This is not how I am.

I have become comfortably numb.

 

O.K.

Just a little pinprick.

There'll be no more aaaaaaaaah!

But you may feel a little sick.

Can you stand up?

I do believe it's working, good.

That'll keep you going through the show

Come on it's time to go.

 

There is no pain you are receding

A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.

You are only coming through in waves.

Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying.

When I was a child

I caught a fleeting glimpse

Out of the corner of my eye.

I turned to look but it was gone

I cannot put my finger on it now

The child is grown,

The dream is gone.

I have become comfortably numb.

Momma loves her baby

And daddy loves you too.

And the sea may look warm to you babe

And the sky may look blue

But ooooh Baby

Ooooh baby blue

Oooooh babe.

 

If you should go skating

On the thin ice of modern life

Dragging behind you the silent reproach

Of a million tear-stained eyes

Don't be surprised when a crack in the ice

Appears under your feet.

You slip out of your depth and out of your mind

With your fear flowing out behind you

As you claw the thin ice. ph34r.gif

"Look mummy, there's an aeroplane up in the sky"

 

Did you see the frightened ones?

Did you hear the falling bombs?

Did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the

promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue

sky?

 

Did you see the frightened ones?

Did you hear the falling bombs?

The flames are all gone, but the pain lingers on.

 

Goodbye, blue sky

Goodbye, blue sky.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

All that you touch

All that you see

All that you taste

All you feel

All that you love

All that you hate

All you distrust

All you save

All that you give

All that you deal

All that you buy

beg, borrow or steal

All you create

All you destroy

All that you do

All that you say

All that you eat

everyone you meet

All that you slight

everyone you fight

All that is now

All that is gone

All that's to come

And everything under the sun is in tune

But the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

There is no dark side of the moon really.

Matter of fact it's all dark.
