Massive Reductions
Ive been sacrificed in the name of the company,
Ive been victimized for the sake of economy.
I had a big house, a big car,
Expense account and credit cards,
But now look what theyve done to me.
Theyre making massive reductions,
Its all mass production and assembly lines.
Theyre making massive reductions,
Massive reductions.
Theyre laying me off all because of inflation,
Im losing my job and my reputation.
Good-bye my big house, my big car.
Now its all up to welfare,
I hear that everybodys going there.
Theyre making massive reductions,
Massive reductions to stay alive.
Whoa, theyre making massive reductions.
Good-bye my big house, my big car,
Now its all up to welfare,
I hear that everybodys going there.
Theyre making massive reductions,
Massive reductions to stay alive.
Whoa, theyre making massive reductions.

The past, present and future
I was the usual detainee who stood out of the class most of the time.
The lean English teacher who has a slight dimple on the chin when she smiles, once called me in and asked me to write three sentences the past, present and future tense.
I wrote them without any hesitation.

Bacterium
in a cloud like massive fog
where the peace does belong
where the waves smashes
against the rocks
I sense warning's
Behind this fog you hear a bird
sing us a song, in warning that we are not alone.
In this thick massive fog
from my beautiful Islands
I sense hunger for freedom
while on mine cheek bone my tears
like the rivers. And I hide my face
when the light get´s so bright
that it blinds my national right!
Because in this cloud like massive fog
I know in my thought a bacteria
that has poisoned the butterfly
so he carries on
with a bitter national song

Clowns Of Death
Im the one who preys upon the weakest
And the weakest always preys upon the one whos underneath
Im the one who doesnt see the waves of human kindness or the tides that
Turn the day
Im the one who always turns and looks away
Turns and looks away

Because after all, we are only boys

Im the one treads upon the weaker ones
Those that I can find
And therell always be some others who could march along in line, yeah
March along in line
And, well move upon the world in a massive tidal wave
And well shout and make some noise, yeah

The clowns of death are marching on their hideous parade
Their glaring eyes are filled with hate, but I am not afraid
Their painted faces cracked with age, their makeup old and worn
With tattered wings and toothy grins to amplify their scorn
Theyre looking for the helpless ones
Theyre looking for the misbegotten
They prey upon the weak and fractured
The crippled and the freaks of nature
And when the come upon one whos lost or is alone
Their smiles get even bigger and their noses start to glow
Making snarling sounds to pantomime with furious abandon
And with a scream they pounce to kill and all the while theyre laughing
Im the one treads upon the weaker ones
Those that I can find
And therell always be some others who will march along in line
And, well move upon the world in a massive tidal wave
And well shout and make some noise, yeah
Shout and make some noise
[chorus 1]
[chorus 2]
Your sons and daughters, innocent, lay sleeping in their beds
Theyll catch them when youre not around and smash their little heads
If you think it just a dream, or that it isnt fair
Just look around outside your door, the clowns are everywhere

Animals
Im mad...and thats a fact
I found out...animals dont help
Animal think...theyre pretty smart
Shit on the ground...see in the dark.
They wander around like a crazy dog
Make a mistake in the parking lot
Always bumping into things
Always let you down down down down.
Theyre never there when you need them
They never come when you call them
Theyre never there when you need them
The nevere come when you call them down down down down.
I know the animals...are laughing at us
They dont even know...what a joke is
I wont follow...animals advice
I dont care...if theyre laughing at us.
Theyre never there when you need them
They never come when you call them
Theyre never there when you need them
The nevere come when you call them down down down down.
They say they dont need money
Theyre lvinign on nuts and berries
They say animals dont worry
You know animals are hairy?
They think they know whats best
Theyre making a fool of us
They ought to be more careful
Theyre setting a bad example
They have untroubled lives
They think everythings nice
They like to laugh at people
Theyre setting a bad example
(go ahead) laugh at me.

New Year Irresolution
‘So, what do you yourself wish for
this 2009? ..’ the microphone
is thrust; the videotape awaits…
and perhaps, there’s some golden link
between New Year wish and New Year resolution…
between the individual will and the universal..
meanwhile, the sceptic stands aside, at the crowd’s edge,
without a wish or resolution; wondering,
‘are things/is the world, a better place,
at this New Year than at the last? ’
But, who then to set some standard
by which to judge this increment?
Who can measure happiness in bulk,
or goodwill to all men? How do Goodness,
Truth, and Beauty fare,
at this ending of the year?
One criterion is certain: fewer now believe -
now Christmas is for sale itself, with
massive reductions in all departments
of the human store..
yet we manage, thank you, very well
without the concept God..
But let’s suppose – as some wise men have claimed –
that though man needs no god,
that God needs Man…
then God is one whole grisly year the wiser now
about this species, Man, whom He wound up
with His divine gold clockwork, and set down on garden soil…
now there’s a happy thought for 2009…
a wiser God about His human child..
But how, you ask, the proof?
the proof, dear reader, of this charming
whimsy, is entirely yours…
and only to be made in present moment;
where God forever dwells.

Dirty Laundry
I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something I can use
People love it when you lose,
They love dirty laundry
Well, I coulda been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I dont have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em all around
We got the bubble-headed-bleach-blonde who
Comes on at five
She can tell you bout the plane crash with a gleam
In her eye
Its interesting when people die-
Give us dirty laundry
Can we film the operation?
Is the head dead yet?
You know, the boys in the newsroom got a
Running bet
Get the widow on the set!
We need dirty laundry
You dont really need to find out whats going on
You dont really want to know just how far its gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre up
Kick em when theyre down
Kick em when theyre stiff
Kick em all around
Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybodys pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry
We can do the innuendo
We can dance and sing
When its said and done we havent told you a thing
We all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry!
