Avoid
01:30
|
|||
I was trying to look you in the eyes
but you deny to see what's up in front of you
it seems to me that you are caught up
in an never-ending circuit of running sheep
did you ever stop to take a better look
i hear doors clicking, you lock yourself in
if you met my look, maybe you wouldn’t be so scared
you wouldn’t be so scared, no you wouldn’t be so scared
i hear car doors clicking while I bike between you
you avoid contact, you avoid to smile
you look away and you nourish your fears
i can see your imaginary fear
did you ever stop to take a better look
avoid contact, avoid to smile
you look away and you nourish your fears
did you ever stop to take a better look

Religion
00:59
|

Moral standards
moral thinking
moral disipline
moral self-control
judge by your bible
judge by your tradition
sits here watching the others
all the people on every side
religion always made us come apart

The New Face
01:16
|

They say they are protecting your freedom
they say they are fighting the new face of evil
clearing six moths of total control
police night raids
people thrown in jail
this is the new face of modern democracy
this is the new face
they say this if for your own best
france in 20-16 is where laws can be bent
in the interest of total control
police night raids
this is the new face of modern democracy
this is the new face

Wasted Life
01:43
|
|||
Never going to have a trade
never going to become someone
never going to become anything
never going to become anyone
have a look at your lives
look at all these people running
back and forth chasing a concept of career
back and forth for money
earning, toiling, stressing, hoping
self righteous to hide your fears
produce produce, produce and die
this wasted life, this wasted used up life
wasted life

Hysteria
02:13
|
|||
When you cry justice
you mean executions
when you cry liberty
you mean inside this police state
then you cry freedom of speech
and then you make racist insults
violence is a republican state problem
a state needs some common ground
seeking unity through fear
manifesting the difference between us and them
when you cry equality
you mean amongst catholic white
when you cry peace
you mean through submission
submission to this present

Les Poubelles
02:35
|
|||
I try to live with as little as I can
There's a thousand people, dying of hunger
There's a thousand kilos, of food in the trash
I try to live, doing what I can
Take what you want, take what you need
I'm not letting money dictate, the rhythm of my life
Sorry I wont buy all the shit that you sell
I am sorry I can't approve, of your business
Sorry I can't contribute, to your exploiting stores
I am sorry but your fairtrade, can't be serious
Take what you want, take what you need
I'm not letting money dictate the rhythm of my life
I'm trying to live, doing what I can

Morbid Laws
01:42
|
|||
Police man says you can't sit down here
it's against this local law
idling in this square
morbid laws
they pull them out
whenever society need them
chasing the roma people from place to place
a wretched life with no rest
absence
vagabond repression
homeless evacuations
cleaning the street trash
cleaning the minds
fighting against the poor
