Island in the city, music in the air
Waiting for the feeling, and
surprise: it's right there!
I dressed up in a cloth of lion
I wanted to avoid growing thin, so
That I couldn't blame myself not
running faster
I took my courage, I felt so hungry
And hunger is a greed that makes
you achieve
Something more than you are in
CHORUS I:
I want my life, you'd better beware
of my mind
But you are here and this is a
hungry lion dance
I wanna hit and run and you'd
better beware of my kind
'coz you're bit green and I know
well what I've come here to take
I saw a big field
I saw the moonshine
I saw the black figures in horizon
Don't you be afraid of me babe
I'm faster than your fright
You shiny angel, wearing crystals
You will recognize the rebel
without a pause
Still I'll wait, on the final scene
before the edge
CHORUS 2:
I want your love, you'd better
beware of my life
'coz you are near and this is a
hungry lion dance
I wanna hit and run without an
easy way
I'm hungry for you love and I
really don't like to pass you
Island in the city, music in the air
Waiting for the feeling, and
surprise: it's right there!
CHORUS 3:
I want your love you'd better
beware of my mind
'coz you're so green and I know
well where I'm aiming to
I wanna split and run without an
easy way
But still you are here and I really
"All's well that ends well": everybody simply decides to vanish into
thin air and disappear
into the pages of internet!

I wanna make you roar, make you roar, make you roar,

Everywhere you go, where you go, where you go,
where you go, where you go, there's a piece of paradise
Revolution mind, human mind, here I am; so hypnotize

John Doe:

You're living in a dream, in a dream, in a dream,

I am a tree with no leaves
I use her as much as she needs
How is my welfare and charm
Coldness pierces through to my thich
As always shit happens
Youll always reap what you will sow
I panic, you dont
We silly people with wicked thoughts
How can I stand what I am
Struggle inside pushed into a can
Hatred!
(The love for my...) hatred!
(The shining of my...) hatred!
Im torn everywhere
Another great feeling:
how I'll get you as fast as I can
You panic, I dont
Its only humanity I steam out
I dont wanna see you in my head
Its alright as long as you stay in bed
Rock me in your cradle to big sleep
Like a real man, I dont wanna weep
I have practised to raise a smile
Thats how I can keep you in my pile
But still in only yours (when passing time)
(...doing time, doing mine, all mine.......its all mine)
How is my welfare and charm
coz I cant give no helping arm
Hatred!
(Youre the screen of my...) hatred!
(Youre the t(h)rashcan of my...) hatred!
Cmon baby get yor share!
No panic, shit happens
Youll always reap what you will sow
You panic, me too
Music by Waltari
I'm lying in my bed, trying to reach the line
After a mess of emotion with my girl so fine
I'm looking through a window seeing the city lights
I wanna serve this world without too much pride
Lycky as I am, I've never needed to prove
That I serve this city, I'm ready to move
There's always a highway in front of my eyes
I beg for freedom, beg for no lies
Stage, is already here, look at me!
Some people try to push me into the big game of numbers and credit cards
to live without shame
I never understood that, it's useless and unfair
it's all just a mafia in the business flare
Your warmth keeps me moving
Your warmth makes me smile
Sure wouldn't ask you to jump into my pile
You are free in this world, I am free as well
So if we can respect each other,
We'll avoid hell
Stage, is already here, look at me!
I wanna do something, I'm not doing now
Don't wanna stick to anything anyhow
This stage is ready, but this stage is free
for people with bright colors
an' without a destiny
the Sun is coming in, into my room
I vener give up, I never give up
I come soon!!
Music by Lehtinen-Hatakka-Waltari
She's got a sensitive touch
She knows about the life all too much
She's too soft for this human kind
She wants to scream out her painful mind
Kill your head! Free your mind!
Kill your head!
They say her lifestyle is not suitable
She should stay cool in room no.1
They say stay free, but in unconcios state
That's the easiest way to look the hate
Kill your head! Free your mind!
(and she belives that she is not real)
Chorus 1:
Let's quit the ball (the right)
Let's quit the ball (to leave!)
Let's quit the ball (escape!)
Let's quit the ball, quit it all
(She is thinking and finds herself bleeding apart
She's mad about the life,
but too seriusly she takes it all
but there should be a way
there's always a way
the sun is today
the sun is today!!!)
She stands in the doorway with
open hands blood runs warm on the floor where she stands
She says she can't take it
She has no means
She can't help it, how much she ever screams
Let's quit the ball (I have)
Let's quit the ball (the right)
Let's quit the ball (to leave)
Let's quit the ball, quit the ball
Let's quit the ball (but there is...)
Let's quit the ball (a way)
Let's quit the ball (don't quit)
There is still a world for you
Sitting in local bus ready for a take away
I feel it strained around me, people with hollow pain
Looking outside the window, seeing heavy rain
Human memories are dim, only pressure in my veins
Purify yourself
Just settle down so you won't need nobody else
Purify yourself
You dont't need another cage
Purify yourself
Instead of digging in your dirt, please let it go!
Purify yourself
Don't wanna see you going insane, insane
Don't expect me to be a jesus to your world
You have jesus inside your head, so cure yourself like you would someone else
Don't ask me to sympathize if you dont want me to critizise
If you're not interested in yourself life will be so hard
Purify yourself
Just settle down so you won't need nobody else
Purify yourself
You dont't need another cage
Purify yourself
Instead of digging in your dirt, please let it go!
Purify yourself
I please, wash your dirt away, away, away
Purify yourself
Just settle down so you won't need nobody else
Purify yourself
You dont't need another cage
Purify yourself
Instead of digging in your dirt, please let it go!
Purify yourself
Misty deariness preveals.
Gloomness is sucking up John Doe's strength.
He is strolling around his limited territory,
dreaming about something that might let him
out of this dead and street...
But life is in a rut.
Agony is tearing him to pieces.
It's a mystery, when I see your
pretty face around your burning lips
But when I think of myself, inside
I'm so shy
That I could cry having those
memories so far
The glorious nation of lovely party
girls won't let me go in my dreams
No one can hold me tight
When I fly throught the night
Ooh... misty man, misty man
I live with a girl who ain't good
enought to make love to foolish guys
And my "Paradise" doesn't wanna
hear me playing piano all the time
I have to try to have my baby back,
hope she makes me feel alright
(she makes me feel so fresh)
No-one can hold me tight
When I fly through the night
Ooh... misty man, misty man
I want to break free, I want to be
free and see the real color of your eyes
Music by Parviainen-Hatakka- Waltari
The thought sword, that cuts you down
The make up, that jerks you up
Colors that burn your skin
The wildest adventure
(not black and white)
I WANNA BE YOUR COLOR TV
Pictures
Comunication
I'm your best devil, not any stability
I WANNA BE YOUR COLOR TV
Hypnotized
You are alone, sitting in the dark corner watching me
An orphan child walks and sniffs the air
in an orphan forest
everybody seems to whip him badly
in this world of jealousy
Hes lost in the sea of tears and cant confess
that he still exists.
He walks alone, hes as weird as a stone:
He broke his needle and he cant crawl
(Love him!)
He writes poems on a little red sheet
showingem to his granny (rest in peace)
he blows his mind, out in the fields, catching
just empty space
Chorus
Ride on - ride on - ride on - Ride on to liberation
Ride on - ride on - ride on - Ride on to destination
Ride on - ride on - ride on - Ride on to your own sensation
Ride on - ride on - ride on - Ride till the music nation comes!
He builds a heaven on the top of his room
forgetting the world outside
Then one prick comes, showing some interest, saying:
'I can make you a big star'
In his mind he climbs to the clouds, throwing
rotten flowers into the holes of the ground
So I ask: Who are you? Already leaving?
Isn't there any time..?
Ride on - ride on - ride on - Riding the liberation
Ride on - ride on - ride on - Riding the satisfaction
Music Hatakka-Yli-Sirnio-Waltari
Living so eek trying to reach the peek
living is so ooh someone's knocking on the door:
SHOWTIME!
Buzz of conversation reaches my deaf ears
can I hear anything? All I can hear is dim:
SHOWTIME!
Why, why should I cry, I feel so high
We don't wanna try, we can touch the sky
Now it starts to crumble
reality isn't here
space is full of colors
restless moving spheres:
Oh, I see it
You dance so hot and it seem to be
That I'll lose control of my strenght of will
Wanna see you naked though I don't know you
An' you sure could see the way a Martini shakes my head
But the power of life's got me in its spell
I tried to wake up and get rid of this hell
Ooh, I'll get it
So I followed you after the evening's gig
T'was a hard day's night and I'd like to get a bit
But the sun was too hot and it burned us down
You lost your keys an'I got a chance to rest in peace
And the power of life's got me in it's spell
I tried to wake up and get rid of this hell
Yes it was my luck you were made of stone
Everybody's hoping that I won't do no wrong
"Be clean, be a dad, be brave and have a high-tech job!"
But when I switch on my stereo and get my feelings out
of dirty sounds
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving on
CHORUS:
I got a bad-bad ride
I got a bad-bad ride
I got a bad-bad ride
I think that you are old, when you just tell me what you
are toldl
"Be clean, be a dad, be brave and have a high-tech job!"
While those dirty freak rule the world, talking 'bout
war pigs and other lunatics
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving on
CHORUS
I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving
First verse:(wordsworth)
Someday U say, U hate music
Someday U say, Y love it. Like on
guy i saw. He didn't stand this
noisy thing at all.
He just wanted to listen to
Whitney Houston all the time
And I said to him: Hey c'mon, U
lose your energy. Why
don't U wanna try something
different, instead of that
entertaining muzak, blow your ears
sometime. It helps U a lot. It
opens your mind, to a new
dimension. U'll find a new side in
U. And above all, your ears are
constantly receiving
noise anyway, all the time. U'll
never stay in silence, anyway. If U
want some noise, let's make real
one, and when U
want some silence, U can enjoy it
by listening to an empty cassette,
for starters. Music exits for totally
different
moods, and after all, it's all the same
CHORUS:
HC vispila!
HC vispila!
HC vispila!
Tahdomme LIHAA!
Second verse:
Once I started to talk to you, don't
wanna stop at all. Now I'm sitting
in a van, on the backseat, riding
this bullshit.
Coming back from the First
Official European Tour. There's
Stockholm, outside the window,
old buildigs, King's
Court, nice place! My head is on a
melody hill, but my feet are
constantly waiting to continue
further. Okay, that's it.
Next verse I'm gonna sing, is going
to be written somewhere else, in a
totally different mood, in a totally
different
atmosphere.
CHORUS
Third verse:
A man with a .38 in his hand
what does he look a like? A man in
suit and a tight tie ora hippie-
looking junkie? Shock
the monkey, no, shot the monkey.
I feel I have to fill this page with a
nonsense-kind of fow, 'cause my
mind is so
fucking stupid. It can't give
anykinda sign of anykinda
creativeness. I'm just lying, like
cows on a field. Now I stop.
This is bullshit, no cowshit. Yes,
I'll turn into chorus. But please,
don't forget me...
..meets the good ole angel...
John Doe:
I decided to go on though it hurt me so
You lost your memory and I lost my soul
Was it good, was it bad, was it just the same
Through the past darkly, and we lost the game
I never realized how things really went
And where this angel is, and what she meant
She said we were in the land of metals
And we made the wrong decision and we found only death
The Angel:
World - you see - is in your eyes
You see the truth and you see the lies
How come is the world so bad?
It's up to you what you want to add
John Doe:
But you see, this poor friend, how is he now?
He's in the world of confusion - deep in the mud
How can you tell it's own fault what he did?
You made a yell of death and then he was hid
How can you tell it was right what you did?
You took us away from our normal trip
It makes no sense to come here to die
Is there sense at all, should I still try?
The Angel:
World - you see - is in your eyes
He will be well, he can feel his files
In this place on one can die
It's up to you, if you want to lie
John Doe:
(Everyday you want to survive)
We are poor, lost soldiers and we don't know how
We can pass this test we are in, now
We are living in the land of poverty
We don't even know if "I" am for "me"
You threw us there into this symphony
Or the two kinda metals, when I choose I'll see
If it's wrong I'll be dead, if it's right I'll be free
That's how I'm gonna pay for my destiny
The Angel:
Don't be scared, you see with you eyes
You see the truth and you see the lies
Go and take your friend with you
It's up to you if you want to move
Jone Doe:
Move, move
The Angel:
The brave new computer-brain is giving out orders...
Machine:
Death to brain, death to sorrow
Turn the lights off and wait for tomorrow
Brains of metal wait to arise
Calling dusty corpses to show up
John Doe:
Don't wanna wait a minute
I need some space to escape
Livin' in a dark hole
Blind on a dead end street
The angel appears to the scene and feels symphony for John Doe and
wants to help him.
The Angel:
Oh, there's a sign
Just follow it, don't be afraid
It shows the way life's really like
Avoid the everlasting pain
Machine:
Alright, a very good trick!
Just sit and relax with Mary Chain (haha)
The angel doesn't like the computer-brain, who wants to connect
everyone to itself. Everybody should have a dream that can be
acomplished. She tears John from his shell willing to give him a hint
of "another day". John doesn't hesitate a moment they: they rush away!
The computer-brain is left behind wondering what really happened
Machine:
(Hey!)Where did you go?
I thought I could reach you.
But my metal computer mind
can't locate you anymore!
(I can't let you go)
John Doe is taken over by a strange emotion. The computer-brain
noticed it proceeds to Hunt him down... It doesn't want to let it's
beloved slave out of sight. And besides, if is possessive as well
as curious... The plot thickens.
John Doe:
Look, what fun
Brightness, stability
And look, I will flee
There's free space in my eyes...
Machine:
The breast of unknown
The breathing space
No civilized lies
The breast of the world
Fortune, fabulous,
challenge the bridge,
white innocence calls
The breast of the world,
come to me!
The Angel:
Oh, there's a sign
Just follow it, don't be afraid
It shows the way life's really like
Avoid the everlasting pain
The breast of the world!
John Doe:
come to me,
the breast of the world,
come to me, come to me...
(Bonus track)
I'm making the money and I'm making my money allnight!
And when I cheat you badly it only makes me feel I'm right
And if I don'ttrust you it's just the same
I can always let you down and you'll forget my name
(Yeah!)I'm ready, are you ready? I'm always ready...
Ready for rock'n'roll
I show my penis on stage if I'll just get wellpaid
(ya know) it always sells through it's of the lowest grade
Yes, I feel so nice and I feel so fine
And behind the stage I see my manager's smile
'Coz I'm ready, I'm ready, always ready...
Ready for rock'n'roll
I dance like hell 'coz I know my loss is there
I smile at him and people think I have something to share
But if he can't trust me it's only peanuts to him
He can always let me down and I can stand as a pimp
And I'm ready, still ready, always ready...
Ready for rock'n'roll
This is the life of a finnish man
when youre walking in winter snow
Your toes are icecold
You are what you are told
This is the life of a finnish man
See how they make you a man
You must stand quietly everything
Go, go, go, move on!
Fuck, fuck, fuck, have fun!
Lets go, go, go, go, go, and have some fun!
All right? Its time to fight, so trust yourself!
Lets fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck for our fun!
We play rock'n'roll, better look at yourself!
Chorus:
Dedicated to the flyers
Who dont give a fuck 'bout climbers
They just wanna live thru feelings
and thats sure a real good way to start
towards the paradise!
Go, go, go, run on! Fuck, fuck, fuck, move on!
Kiss my ass, kiss my song
Lets go (fuck!) all nite long!
Its only rock'n'roll, you better find it in yourself!
Theres no sense I this, no good advice
No real help for your stress
Chorus
I'm lying on a mountain be the river
In the distance see the city, I'd love to be a bird
Started dreaming 'bout a day I would be there
I'm walking thru the people with power and name
I know you wait for me
I know you still should see
That I'll never do anything that's out of the blue
You think I'm a liar and I'll never change
But my family, you must understand as far as I'm con-
cerned
I'd like to make you feel
That I am really real
Don't wanna do anything that's a copy of you
CHORUS:
(Good God) No, I did never feel like
(Good God) No, I did never feel like
(Good God) No, I did never feel like I would be a clone
(Good God) No, I did never feel like
(Good God) No, I did never feel like
(Good God) No, I did never feel like I would steal your
show
(you know I never feel like)
You know I feel like this! Doncha be yourself with us!
Let's go!
Baby you are wondering why I walk alone -
'coz nothing in this whole wide world would make me
copy you!
I wanna be myself
And nobody else
No, I'll never do anything that's outta you
Drug is a rebellion
But see how it burns your brain
So sad song, sad song
You thought you knew much of life
But Society is your wife
So sad song, sad song
Lost in luxury haze thought it seems to be
That your music's still free
You lie in your grave and you trust yourself
But drying is the way it looks like
HEY HEY HEY (don't leave me no more)...
Death is a rebellion
But see how it burns your skin
So sad song, sad song
Every day you're closer to your exit door
Take care that you find your best way to shine
Let's not live a sad song no more!
Repeat verse 2
Are you in now?
Are you in now babe?
Hello from nowhere
Hello you backwards
It seems to be realy cold out there
Better keep a long distance
Nice to meet you, funny guy, you
look so sad, moving around and
around
Clap your hands, clap your feet,
make your way through blindfolded
Every night, every day, where your
head goes it's the wrong way
Step ahead, step behind
everywhere, all the same kind
Isolation seems to be what you
deserve
You were trying, but now the beast
is in your head
I see the Wall Street
I see high buildings
Too much to take, too little to give
Strange, you're still aiming to the
couds, anyway!
Isolation is the state we'll keep you in
Still we're worrying, worrying 'bout
your head spinnin'
See me fying, I would have so
much to give
But you're lazy, you just need more
things for living
CHORUS:
Beat it, leave it, baby, beat it
Beat it, baby, life's not such a
graveyard
Beat it, leave it, baby, beat it
Beat it, man, you are much more
than you think
Beat it, leave it, baby, beat it
Beat it, bayby, life's not such a
graveyard
Beat it, babe, that's not reailty
Beat it now 'coz you have much
The desperate struggle for life and death of "knowledge" begins
Machine:
Why? Ooh...
Why? Why? I'll...
...die
I'll die!
Why?
I will die?
The Angel doesn't seem to feel sorry at all
The Angel:
Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Ave Maria!
Machine:
Why?
Cancel...
...lation, edit, Why, windows closed!
Ooh!
Quite, up to me!
Pain!
File B!
Choir:
Die! Die! Die! Die!
Machine:
Uuh! Aah! Ooh!
Uuh! Aah! Ooh!
Lii, function closed.
The Angel:
Ave Maria! Ave Maria! Ave Maria!
Machine:
Aah, uuh, aah, uuh!
Uuh!
Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah! Aah!
Die!
Aah!
Die! Die! Die! Die!
Hey, rise, rise, rise, close, quit...
function? Die! Die!
John Doe & Choir:
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
The computer ceased to function.
Everybody:
DIE!
...And so our man return to "save" the computermonster and notice that he is still alive..!? In quite bad condition, but anyway. The Angel follows.
Machine:
Time, irrelevant, I can't die and it's my own fault
Inspiration of a living organism
I lost my files but I'm still well, exiting
Thought surrounded only by bacteria and viruses
The Angel:
How do you feel? La-la-la, you were out of line!
Machine:
What?
The Angel:
Don't be afraid, you'll have your memory back, if you wanted to
Machine:
Ooh!
Deep in the mud, totally locked
I started recognize myself
I ordered the files into a new dimension
Thought I felt as slow as hell
The Angel:
Outside the cruel metal that keeps you fed,
things don't look the same
Machine:
Aarrgh!
So I was cheated, cruelly treated
The Angel:
It's not really like you feel,
do you judge me when it's real?
Machine:
Aah!
Ooh!
The Angel:
Can; t you understand if I told you to turn your head
You would laught only loud
Machines don't believe me!
Machines don't believe me!
Machines don't believe me!
Machines don't believe me!
Leave me! Leave me! Leave me!
The computer-brain is reactivated, but this time,
"harmony" between these different forces can't be found!
Machine:
Do...
John Doe:
...you believe...
Machine & John Doe:
...in...
Everybody:
DEATH!
Machine:
Do...
John Doe:
...you believe...
Machine & John Doe:
...in...
Everybody:
DEATH!
John Doe:
Thinking (desperate for a..)
Thinking (and then you turn to the machine)
Thin (g) king (on a way to the engless...)
Sinking (into lunacy)
Machine:
Yeah! Yeah!
John Doe:
Die! Die!
Machine:
Yeah! Yeah!
John Doe:
Die! Die!

I'm waiting...
I'll wait till the morning comes
Do the emotion! Do it now!
(I'm watching all that madness but I'm searching for the rel one!)
Do the fast emotion! Let it out!
(I force myself through the noicy croud to the light
that's flashing really wild!)
I'm waiting...
I'll wait till the morning comes
I'm searching,
searching for Music Force
Do the fast emotion! Do it right!
(I'm standing outside the City mess I'm waiting for the people...)
Find the motivation! Find it now!
(I'm crawling like heavy worm on the disco floor of real love)
I'm waiting...
I'll wait till the morning comes
I'm riding...
Riding the nedless night
Do the fast emotion! Do it now!
(I'm seeking like a lunatic for appearance of our real love!)
Find the motivation! Find it now!
Towards an autumn
Towards, darkness
(Better) fight the power!
Like a New Years Eve
A new day has just begun
Keep yourself sharp, sharp as a knife!
Towards the sunset
Towards the distance
(Better) fight the power
Through the year
Spread a wider atmosphere
Shine your light on the autumn sky!
Be brave in the human race
Confront your feelings face to face!
Towards an autumn
Towards darkness
(Better) fight the power!
A start of a new circle
A new day has just begun
(Your nature is wild.
I wanna see through you
Let's kiss the world....forget
the depression!)
I surrender... I surrender... again...
I surrender... this land again, ooh
I surrender...
You are so beautiful I want to take
it four...
I am so beautifu... I could whisper
in your ear...
I am so beautiful my mind is waiting
You are so beautiful my mind is
shaking again
I kiss this land!
(This so-called recession, doesn't
realy depress anyone...)
Gotta get out, get out of this fever...
I kiss the land!
We want to be free again, so let us
Music by Hatakka-Lehtinen-Waltari
Wake up, shake up yourself to the road
it's an endless one, so forget your code
just shoot, inside you there's a machine
gun your bullets are tough,
have a hot foot run
you don't need no peanuts or little
mistakes they'll give you bad feelings,
they'll give you heartache
just trust yourself wherever you go
'coz your heart always knows
what you got to show
I don't need no money, I dont need routine
it's just a waste of time, I'll be ugly and mean
I wanna "run the Sun" while doing my thing
the gift I got when I was as small as a pin
the smoggy air is just killing my breath
murdering the nation,
'cez there's no more health
people are lazy, just sitting in their cars
I'd prefer to feel free and walk on the mars
Chorus:
I don't need nothing but a real life
(I'm your rainy day!)
I just need some time to groove
I dont need nothing but a real luck
(I'm your rainy day!)
to lean on my destiny
Just shoot, inside you there is a machine gun!
Just shoot, inside you there is a machine gun!
(Killing the breath!..)
Just shoot, inside you there is a machine gun!
Chorus:
I don't need nothing but a real life
(I'm your rainy day!)
I just need some time to groove
I dont need nothing but a real luck
(I'm your rainy day!)
to lean on my destiny
(I need some time to go)
I don't need nothing but a real life
(I'm your rainy day!)
I just need some time to go
I dont need nothing but a real luck
(I'm your rainy day!)
to lean on my destiny
The God Amighty: "I curse this
people to the deepset hole
I make them suffer and feel like
absolutely nothing!"
C'mon baby, I wanna nasty ride
You know it's time to lose my pride
I wanna keep my feet on the ground
Don't wanna live for sight and sound
Don't you leave me alone tonite
I'm so shy and it makes me cry
Bastard, the whole life's a bastard
I live like a stone, I just am
CHORUS:
Living is so easy, nasty and little
Living piggy in the middle
Living is so easy, nasty and little
Living piggy in the middle
(everyday!)
Find me a place to stay
'coz I don't wanna fade away
Living piggy in the middle
(everyday!)
Hurry up there's no time to rest
'coz working makes you real man,
the best
You will see when the day is done
You get cheers from everyone
I can't sing and I can't talk
I just need my own New York
You know it's that tragical history,
tragical history of living:
CHORUS:
Living is so easy, nasty and little
Living piggy in the middle
Living is so easy, nasty and little
Living piggy in the middle
(everyday!)
Find me a place to hide
'coz hiding is the best way to die
And me, working as slave, every day!
You see when I'm walking
I hear nobody talking
I live for my telly
And I work for my belly
I build the new houses that no-one
wants to use
I can't get rid of this 'cause
I wanna lose
CHORUS:
Living is so easy, nasty and little
Living piggy in the middle
Living is so easy, nasty and little
Living piggy in the middle
(everyday!)
Trying to find a place to stay
If I can't, I won't pray today
For me, it's living like a dog, every
day!
(this is my life)
Hello here we go again
I wanna have this metal thing
So one, two, three, four
We just wanna have some more
So c'mon
RAP RAP RAP...
Rap your body beat, rap your body beat
Rap your body beat (move your body!) rap your body beat
Rap your body beat...
CHORUS:
Money comes to the sound (money comes to the sound)
Money comes to the sound (money comes to the sound)
RAP RAP RAP...
Rap your body beat (RAP YOUR BODY BEAT!)...
CHORUS
Money comes, money comes, money comes (oh my God!)
Money come (I got the power!), money comes, money

(I got the power!) money comes, money comes, money

Money comes (all right!)
Money comes (all right!)
Money comes (all right!)
Money comes! ARRGGHHH!
Again on the stage where everybody's ready
To rap this beat or do you wanna call it heavy
We wanna wecome you to this unfinished show
We wanna welcome you to this unfinished show
And we're gonna get through 'coz we're allowed like you
Everything's simple but not so clear
I've heard that you live in a bad atmosphere
So forget the bad deals and let yourself go
There's nothing in this world that'll keep us low
HELLO!
Don't live your life with a TV-set
It will kill you, thinking there's something you can get
Don't make your ife sounds ike a bad joke
And let the leaders give you too much dope
Things will be better all the time
It depends on how you will waste your time
Don't panic your mind like a regular Joe
Forget the bad deals and let yoursef go
(Instrumental)
Prologue
The planet of death and damnation. The dumping ground of people with
weak souls, who cause
war and starvation. The year 1995. John Doe, one of the inhabitants, is
living in a state of
distress, knowing that he is dependent on the computerbrain who is
guiding the state with no
destination. The brave new people equal progress, they say, but the
ordinary John Doe has
never been taught how to survive alone! And he doesn't dare to think!
However, the
computer-brain has a special feature to act gentle and to sympathize
with human mind, after
all - humans have feelings. In the midst of all this there is also an
angel, a shining creature, the
light of life who can see inside a man. It is the angels mission to
encourage and cheer up the
normal mortal. She sees the pain of John Doe.
This symphony tells about the struggle between these three spirits:
Part 1 - Misty Dreariness
Misty dreariness prevails. Gloominess is sucking up John Doe's strenght.
He is strolling
around his limited territory, dreaming about something that might let
him out of this dead
Chorus:
Go, everybody, go, to the lust of life!
Sitting here on this side of the fence,
though grass is greener on the other side
I thought id better here, but still it locks me down
Im the worst intervention in the whole history
Birds are shooting complicate series into my consciousness
At once Im back in time when there was no order of geometric stress
Chorus
Tired but happy I organize the world, trying to hear it louder
Lets go deeper into the world to live more for sight and sound
Many kinda robots are waiting for us to calculate our pride
Take me away, somewhere, anywhere, Ill be in and I will survive
Civilization?!
Chorus
Lifes so cruel, lifes such a bitch, (but) still its inviting us to play
Theres many dangers against the humans
but we have decided me to step inside
But I smashed the mirror down (like Tommy did)...
...banging the doors behind
(Instrumental)
Suddenly. John Doe notices that he's been left completely alone,
everybody has
disappeared! Only a mood of satisfied fulfillment is left. John Doe
decides to hit the road!
He is strolling around in the "New World" and is totally out of his
mind... The
mysteriously. He is feeling a little bit guilty(?), like as if he'd let
(Every day, every day...)
I'd like to get out of this lunatic
thought
But as long as it is there, I wanna
get caught
I can't get any sleep
'cause I don't live a dream
Life is not a casualty
And that's just where I've been
Hitch-hiking away throught these
mysterious days
I think we are the medal of the
previous 2 billion years
It's a flight out of time
And I have only a dime
It's real hard to imagine
That there's no time at all
Now I'll take my final step to the
unknown
Nothing can really stop me, 'cause
I'm on my own
Only thing I would like to take
with me is you
Yo, please come to me, take my
advice.
And I'll show you...
You know all about flying, but dont tell me all your wisdom
coz just own imagination can throw us out of deadly routine
Livin in the naugty city (without no heart), blind
and mind full of emptiness
The long winter seems to fill your heart with
distrust and loneliness and cold
I wanna know wheres the deepest sea
Tell me who you are, The Waltari!
Run with your flame into a big horizon
Fly with your thoughts above despair
Slow down with your hips in fast emotion
Cmon into joy, this is our way
(and) we dont give a damn of what they'll say
We should stay in the light every single day
coz we are the warriors that can never fade away
Psychedelican is always there
so is all kinds of stuff wed like to share
People, lets ride on our wide smile
Son: I saw the eyes of the american war machine
Father: Its such a fine way of thinking to get us some scene
Son: The video war games can sometimes be so boring!
Father: Sand castles made to crash! Youre not a boy anymore
If you cant grab a gun youll stay alone at the shore
and everybody thinks youre too childlish and unable to get along!
Zombie (comes): Come here - you got caught!
I got my eyes on you! Be good, be my body -
I put my lies in you!
Do you remember when your daddy felt quite mad
'coz he didnt understand why you felt so sad;
Father: My boy, you have to face it, youre becoming a man!
Still you feel changin tunes where ever you go
Though even girls are looking at you everywhere
but I know baby, c'mon and get your share!
Lie of the Zombie (yeah!)...
Lie of the Zombie (yeah!)... Dont mess with the man!
Lie of the Zombie (yeah!)...
Lie of the Zombie (yeah!)... Dont mess with the Sam!
Son: Today I slept through my broken dream
Hmm, it wasnt how it should be...
Zombie: Code number 102!
Son: Now I think theyre going to cut me to pieces
Can I ever get the right answer or just lies
Nevermind 'coz theres no right way to swallow my pride
I am what I am on this crazy stand! (Lend your hand!)
Zombie: Please stop looking around
Please stop looking around - I got my lies in you!
Please stop looking around
Please stop looking around - I got my eyes in you!
(Son: does it matter anymore?!)
Little children go to school but they will disappear
They are taught to rule the word, dad thinks it's a good
idea
A child is good and he can't see how easily he'll be cheat-
Then he finds himself at the bottom living from 9 to 5
I was born in the wrong decade
It was 10 years ago there were guys like me
They called it New Wave but now it's history
People were just hanging around and in a enormous mess
Hope on day it will be the same as it was then
I can't reveal my real world to you
I can't show how I need you
Things in my mind make a mess of me
I am weak and I know it well
CHORUS:
But I'm safe behind this universal song
In my mind I know how to have some fun
I am pale in front of this universal song
I'd like to sing, I don't need no gambling games
Show me the way how to make it right
Show me the way how to save my soul
I don't need the daily routine
Wish you knew what I really mean
CHORUS I need universal song
There's still many youngsters who would relly like to
A time of no passion lives somewhere in me
Its a pity to realize that theres no more love
I held you in my arms, I held you so tight
But one day the flame went out and I was alone
Oh, Im going on, I held you oh so long
Oh, Im going on, to find where I belong
I felt I was happy, no-one knew about me
Someday they will find out, how brave Ive been
Oh, I held you oh so long
Oh, Im going on, I held you oh so long
Oh, Im going to the other side of dawn
Oh, Im going on like a hungry lion
But how strange, I felt empty, days didnt pass by
I missed you, felt helpless, I have to confess
Oh, Im coming back 'coz I held you oh so long
Oh, I need you so, theres no point in pretending
Here comes Good Ol'Satan
Watchout! Noise lunatics are in
town
No chance to escape anywhere 'coz
they're all the time around!
They kill your deepest dreams
Of possible peace and harmony
They penetrate in every mind,
there's no way to rest in peace
They shake good vibes on
everyone
They shake good vibes on
everyone
Take care of yourself or otherwise
you'll be bitten in the end
Lock yourself in your house
Hide yourself under a blanket
Try to think of something nice 'coz
this disaster's spreading all over the
place
UH-UH
UH-UH
HEY HEY
Hi you scared face, here's to you,
it's big lush case
They kill your peace in every
single town
They kill your peace in every
single town
You can't be convincing anymore
They just laugh while pushing you
to the real depression
Skins don't like it, politicians hate it
Music professionals lose their faith
Everybody's watching each other:
is this the end of the world?
UH-UH...
Hi-ho music man, here's to you,
it's an anti-band!
CHORUS:
Don't need your "mega-tips" for a
frown
I just wanna fly above the ground
This is just a loss of space!
Mankind lose it's clean face!
People can't stand this any longer
Please let us stay in peace!
Noway! these stranges shout
'coz this is really what life's about
There's no use to turn around
It's real life all what's found
UH-UH...
Hi-ho silly man, here's to you, it's
all in your head!
Music by Hatakka-Yli-Sirnio-Waltari
I ask you to follow me inside,
I have so much power to give to you
there's a space inside me for you babe,
you'll never know what happens
when I'm open to you
I want you to follow me inside
you'll never know what happens
when there's nothing to do
but you are afraid
you think twise - too much
I wink my eyes and smile,
that's what I'm offering to you
You ask me to follow you outside,
you'll never know what happens
when there's some game to play
You say: "please, please, kiss me quick it dosn't make you
a man if you just sit and wait"
You beg: "jump into bed, come on fill the empty spaces"
(o.k.) alright, party around!
There is nothing really special for us too soon
You see my dark side, coming closer
to me but love is brightness
I see no fear when you are near me
Tonite...
I know what I'm feeling
I'm feeling inside
Toninte...
I know what I'm feeling,
I'm feeling inside!
I ask you to follow me inside,
I have so much power to give to you
there's a space inside me to share,
you'll never know what happens
when I'm open to you
You beg: "jump into bed, come on fill the empty spaces"
(o.k.) alright, party around!
I say farewell, there's nothing to do
You see my dark side, coming closer
to me but love is brightness
I see no fear when you are near me
Tonite...
I know what I'm feeling
I'm feeling inside
Toninte...
I know what I'm feeling,
CHORUS:
I'm tired of all these people, tired of all their lies
Used to be friendly, I don't discriminate
Rap:
I think I'll start to live as clown
'Coz I'm bored by people wearing a frown
I wanna take off to somewhere else
To see some people out of thei shells
In New York City, New York town
Everybody's shaking all over the ground
And here my body wants to kick that mean old lady ...
I'm tired of all these people (YEAH YEAH YEAH)
I'm tired of all these people (YEAH YEAH YEAH)
I'm tired of all these people, tired of all their lies
I wanna go jo-jo underground
I wanna live for sight and sound
I wanna move towards the flow
Dont let me walk down
Please, dont let me dry out
Dont let me walk down
I wanna spell your success:
better to wind up yourself
to a vague ball of experience
Dont let me walk down
Dont let me go down
Hey baby let me fly high
Chorus:
I wanna dance
I wanna dance electric
Better toreally step outside
Better to look for bright colours
I wanna hear the metal sound!
Youre not a dead body
Like us, everybody
Hey baby, gimme your noise!
I love the sound of dignity
I love to stand on my own two feet
I keep on watching the big sunset
Youd like to talk to me, but I wont let you, I bet
I know I love you - I know I hate you
I know I love you - I know I hate you (now)
I prefer to get cold in a hard rain
than to give anybody a chance to share my pain
I wanna feel the limits in my head
I wanna keep on sitting in the electric chair
I know I love you - I know I hate you
Thats why I put my faith in you
You know better what you are!
I know I love you - I know I hate you...
I love the sound of dignity
I love to stand on my own two feet
Sometimes Id like to change my way to go
to give my my confession and feel my flow
I know I love you
I know I hate you
Thats why I leave it up to you
Penetrating throught your skin to the flesh
I force myself throught be fore it's too Late
These thoughts are weird, too selfish and ugly
But increase my life power, gotta prove that I'm some-
thing
Child again
I feel I'm bore again
Wave the flag
I feel so free again
(Once) I tried to escape the rain of my pain
I was realy insane, didn't love what I created
But then lightning struck me and I awoke to a new morn-
I returned to the sand
I returned to the cradle
Curiosity - please, make a man of me!
Hold the line - let's make this music free
Curiosity - get a hold of me!
Wave the flag to keep this music free!
It's so useless to flee the cradle
As a child you used to know what you were able
An'now you just follow your empty shadow
Better hold the line
Better hold the line of life!
Curiosity - please make a man of me!
Hold the line - let's keep this music free
With our curiosity!
Wave the flag
Music by Hatakka-Waltari
I live on slow thinking street
that's the place where losers meet
it's easy for them to have a ball
'cos the losers think so small
It's a long long story to tell
once we lived there so well but
the smog of hatred came into our mind
the only ability we found was to bind
Slow thinking street
My body wants to shake your mind
oh honey, you can be of any kind
rock on 'till the morning comes
we will be the kings at once
Too tired to think anything
feels like a bird with a hallow wing
the only thing that comes into my head
is how to have you in my bed
Slow thinking street
Breake the fog,
dance the beat
stomp your feet
Music by Hatakka-Yli-Sirnio-Waltari
To myself:
Wandering the street with lots of girls
gathering around me with necks full of pearls
they try to push themselfs still closer to me
can I give 'em enough?
There's more of them than 3
I'd like to give you everything I can
but there's not and endless energy in this man
you all want my love but sometimes it's too much
I feel I can't take it and I'll lose the touch
Why to cry when I'm only one in the line
To the girl:
Why am I just sitting here watching you
you're like a walking disaster
I can see trough you
you think you're a star,
you think you're the queen...
but your mind is burning
though your hearth is gold
you make dirty tricks and your love is so sold
but you never realize that you ain't really no.1
if you don't change your ways
your life is gone
Why to cry
when you are only one in the line
don't you know
that this is only one in the line
This is only one in the line!
Beatiful people always have problems!
(wish I could be an eagle...)
To the planet:
Many many fucking big worlds
have come and gone
this is only one planet
like I am only one son
we'll never ever make it, we can only
lose you can't save my life,
it was made to be used
we are nothing really special,
only one in the mode
there are many planets that we could explode
there's not much time for stupid fight
just do it, do it: choose right!
why cry when we are only one in the line,
don't you know
this planet's just one in the line
Deeper into the mud... led by the angel. John Doe is looking around,
delighted and -
frankly begins to go insane. The computerbrain can't find such a
"feeling" in it's data
banks and becomes alarmed...
Machine:
Outside the breathing space
Like a bunch of metal pushed into my veins
John Doe:
Hasta la vista, oh la-la negras putas, muchos cojones!
It's so beautiful here...
Machine:
Vegetation, out of my files
Weird like death, like rusty metal
The Angel:
How do you feel? Laa-la-laa... you're out of line!
Machine:
Death! Death!
(Hey!) Now it's a crime to walk down here
This is not our property, somebody's charging us
The Angel:
No, no, no! It's not true!
Here we are all free, free from your sins!
Machine:
Sure it's all safe?
Reminds me of an overload
Surrounded by chaos
I'm just a hunter's prey
The Angel:
Benedictus esto inter peccatores, dominus tecum!
John Doe manages to escape from the circuit of the computerbrain, the
body
impregnated with despair is slowly getting rid of its chronic
depression. The Angel is
watching from aside with a contented smile. The computerbrain is
starting to feel a
reduction of electric charge in itself.
Machine:
I can't find my memory
I'm short of breath, I only feel
Files are messed up, hi-tech gone
Wanna get back, this is not fun!
I escape, I am scared
I'll be lost anyway
Comfortable? It's too hot
I'm afraid of what is not
Why do you smile, don't like it
Feel too much, I feel sorrow
I should stay pale behind my monitor. LET ME GO!
The computerbrain runs away trying to escape... John Doe is somewhere
else... Revelling
deep in pleasure.
Machine:
American dream
You made yourself spoiled
I've been livin' in a dream for too long
They forced me to pay, but now, here, today...
Choir:
YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!
Machine:
Is this way right or wrong?
Should I go... right or left?
It's too hot, faith no more
