A zoetrope is a device that produces the illusion of motion from a rapid succession of static pictures. The term zoetrope is from the Greek words ζωή (zoe), meaning "alive, active", and τροπή (trope), meaning "turn". "Zoetrope" taken to mean "active turn".
The zoetrope consists of a cylinder with slits cut vertically in the sides. On the inner surface of the cylinder is a band with images from a set of sequenced pictures. As the cylinder spins, the user looks through the slits at the pictures across. The scanning of the slits keeps the pictures from simply blurring together, and the user sees a rapid succession of images, producing the illusion of motion.
The earliest zoetrope was created in China around 180 AD by the inventor Ting Huan (丁緩). Ting Huan's device, driven by convection, hung over a lamp and was called chao hua chich kuan (the pipe which makes fantasies appear). The rising air turned vanes at the top, from which translucent paper or mica panels hung. When the device was spun at the right speed, pictures painted on the panels would appear to move.

Music by Unicorn, lyrics by Dan Swano
I am walking in the silent rain,
where the young one's free,
the old man's sane,
I am waliking it alone, this magic lane.
The sap of those who shall remain,
regain the throne of redulence, unify the
leprechauns and go.
Renew the sapid sward
Welcome. They return.
The turbid mere will quail.
Zoetrope.
Turning around in circles as we live.
The gyration has made it turn.
The tot that touches the tottery turf
He's wishing it would be a birch
so that he could taste the cosy bark.
I am dreaming of a branch of lime.
Knowning it would heal his maul, trying
hard to misgive his chief.
The minx a jinx with whisk??
And it is waiting to reform.
The torsive hedgehog won't!!
Zoetrope...
Watch how it burns!
Oh, for how long?
Do we have to wait for infinity?
Oh, for how long?
Do we have to wait for infinity now?
Now you've heard the weirdest tale.
Phrases that's unentaled.
Now fold your rod and come along
to where those tales began...Go!
They've blown you out of house and home
You turn around you're all alone
Visions creep into your head
You think about the life you've led
You started out a small time hood
Stealin' cars your life is good
Then night flights to the southeast bay
You ice six men along the way
CHORUS:
Seeking asylum from the D.E.A.
It's a man made nightmare and I'm seeking asylum
Bodyguards became your scene
Limousines and fashion queens
All night self indulgent party scenes
Protection paid keeps your name clean
You wake today just to find
Ten million drop somehow went wrong
Your house was bombed your men all dead
Nothing left alive inside
CHORUS
Take your next step it will be your last
You never thought your tiome would come
Just as you're wondering how you'll die
Bullets slam into your eyes
You stumble back your knees give way
You die alone it's one way down
Violence and force power and greed
It's all in life you've ever known
Escort take your time to crawl into a life so low
Slut you're still the same but you work too hard to take no blame
And we all know you'll never change
So why don't you just play the game
CHORUS:
Don't try to think up some excuse or try to recreate the truth
Loser it's your bad life story. Loser what are you gonna do
Loser you take scum for glory but in the end the slut gets you
Playing top man all the time while in real life you fall behind
And in your mind you know the story no one tells you what to do
And you don't take shit from nobody
Wasting time doin lines, wasting money
CHORUS
Safety sex means you can come if you're using condoms all the time
You think you've got the answers to all the questions
But behind that face is an empty mind
And we all know that life's a game and sluts are worthless weak and lame
I'm not what I seem to be life to me's no mystery
Those like me will rot in jail longer than their life will be
CHORUS:
My hand's in your pocket I'm taking what's yours
What I eat, my survival all depends on what I steal
When you turn your back I'll steal your money stolen money buys my meals
CHORUS
I'll steal your money too
Master of deceptive fables criminal insanity
It always beats real work time, wages, income earned. I live like kings
If the suckers ever catch me it's for sure that I would die
CHORUS
Oh say can you see spacecraft exploding in the air
By the early morning light seven families in despair
Watching their sons and daughters burning in the sky
Remnants plunge into the water but they already died
What so proudly we hail we thought they had all the brains
But in front of all the world we've been put to shame
In the sky no one left alive
The fault is yours and you can't deny their good luck passed them by
Whose broad stripes and bright stars led a perilous flight
That ended in disaster panic and frustration
You need another seven spacemen willing to take a chance
And dumb enough to trust you when you say all systems go
Rockets red glare bursting in air we thought they had all the brains
But N.A.S.A. proved otherwise that day in the sky
No one left alive died in the sky
The fault is yours and you can't deny their good luck passed them by
You know exactly why they're all dead
They couldn't survive. The fault was yours and you know just why
They're all dead
Now you got another seven astronauts dead
Their good luck had passed 'em by now they're dead
You can't tell how thick your shell can get when you abide
By a lifestyle that ain't worthwhile
But you continue what you're doing
On the hot sheet at the right time you get eaten by the hungry hand
Good examples so you say is what you're making out of everyone
CHORUS:
Work all day you think all night ain't gonna sign my life away
And there ain't no one as dumb as you, the company man
Hammer and chisel insight on you I see if you're all there
But you're long gone just a shambles of what could have been real
And you tell me that it's my fault when I come short of pleasing you
At the same time I can tell you that you'll end up in a ball and chain
CHORUS
Look here no mind who laughs last laughs best
The company man takes from anyone's hand and he don't give a damn
The company man takes from anyone's hand just to get where he can
The company man he won't start seeing until he stops believing
The company man
That a nine to five is all you need to be alive
Being kept after hours behind closed doors
You get reprimanded for bad behavior
And you ain't got no choice but to wait the time
Meanwhile you contemplate the idea of escape
CHORUS:
Detention - detention - detention
Well I can't wait any longer
You won't receive any sympathy
From those around you 'cuz you're in too deep
So it's up to you to make your move
When his back is turned you fly out that door
CHORUS
So the chase begins down the corridor
Up and down the stairs you're runnin' everywhere
And there's no way out when you've been confined
To an institution where they play with your mind
Detention (4x) yaaaaa!
You ain't got no choice but to surrender!
I'll take this chance to release all the grief pent up inside of me
Got nothing to say who will listen anyway
It's all the same to me so I'll just shout and scream
CHORUS:
Unbridled energy pent up inside me (2x)
If you don't think that this makes any sense
(Why do you) continue to abuse the people that're your friends
Gotta find your way to let it out
It's better than seeing a shrink who'll only sit and watch you pout
CHORUS
So what's my problem I really ain't got one
It's just that I'm so sick and tired of how things are done
So why not scream to get it out of me
Or get drunk at "Cary's" with Steve Nagy
Temperatures exceeding hot both land and people start to rot
Can't provide for themselves because resources are so nil
I sympathize it's enough to make me cry
When we got so much and they have none and they ain't got no place to run
CHORUS:
This makes it hard to, down there it's hard to survive
Situation's out of hand starvation all across the land
U.S. aid can only do part of what needs to be done
So the story goes on and on how long who knows?
Salvation is the only thing that matters to these human beings
CHORUS
Emaciated little kids don't know what happy childhood is
Living through a ten year drought is more than simply doing without
CHORUS
Temperatures exceeding hot both land and people start to rot
Can't provide for themselves because resources are so nil
I need another chance
To right my wrong
I didn't mean to kill her
It was insanity
She didn't want to give me
The love I need
So I began to whip her
And then I took her life
Scream
Dripping blood
She's dead
A little teenage doll
And a fifth of J.D.
Is all you need to pull off
A dirty deed
So if you choose to do so
You might just pay
And you may never get
Another chance
Scream
Dripping blood
She's dead
So now that you're a killer
Are you satisfied?
Do you believe in fate
Or are you just plain dumb?
You had to have it your way
You didn't compromise
So now you're in the slammer
And not a thing to say
Scream
Dripping blood
Being kept after hours behind closed doors
You get reprimanded for bad behavior
And you ain't got no choice but to wait the time
Meanwhile you contemplate the idea of escape
CHORUS:
Detention - detention - detention
Well I can't wait any longer
You won't receive any sympathy
From those around you ''cause you're in too deep
So it's up to you to make your move
When his back is turned you fly out that door
CHORUS
So the chase begins down the corridor
Up and down the stairs you're runnin' everywhere
And there's no way out when you've been confined
To an institution where they play with your mind
Detention (4x) yaaaaa!
You ain't got no choice but to surrender!
No one knew what the night would bring when the sky was overcast
A haunting wind and a lightning bolt in a barren graveyard
When the bodies rise up from the underground your skin begins to crawl
And a long cold hand lashes out at you and then you're gone
He tried with all his might
But he couldn't win the fight
Spellbound by evil
It's life in hell
Spellbound by evil
In a traumatic brainstorm
The mausoleum is a reception room for the ghouls in the night
You best seek refuge if you're still alive or you'll be discovered
Well behind a mansion is a dead man's tracks leading up the stairs
And in the foyer lying on the floor is half a human being
He tried with all his might
But he couldn't win the fight
Spellbound by evil
It's life in hell
Spellbound by evil
In a traumatic brainstorm
The world is plagued by an evil force that brings the dead man back to life
I wish there was some way to save us all from tragic endings
Well escape ain't likely when you're trapped inside and there's nowhere to run
So count your blessings, prepare to die, your time has come
So try with all your might
And you might win the fight
Spellbound by evil
It's life in hell
Spellbound by evil
The damage is done, I've been beat at my own crime
By someone that I never would have expected
While the rich man kept counting his stocks and shares
I made with the cash that they didn't know was there
Trip wires
I thought I would do no wrong
Never assume that you'll beat them all
Trip wires
I thought I would do no wrong
Never assume that you've won
So now that you found me, well how do you feel?
And what is it that you expected to gain
By laying your ass on the line for the rich man
Who couldn't care less if they found you dead?
Trip wires
I thought I would do no wrong
Never assume that you'll beat them all
Trip wires
I thought I would do no wrong
Never assume that you've won
I never thought you'd become the impostor
'Cause you still won't collect a substantial reward
'Cause a pauper can never join ranks with the rich man
'Cause he's rich with the lies that he's fed to the poor
Trip wires
I thought I would do no wrong
Never assume that you'll beat them all
Trip wires
I thought I would do no wrong
You break your back
To get you through
Ain't got no class
They say to you
You need money
To survive
So you break your back
Just to stay alive
All day long
You work and slave
You got nothing left
Your choice is made
There ain't no reason
I should wait
Just let me through
Those pearly gates
Don't you try
And tell me why
I should be glad
To be alive
Now you see
The road i'll take
Life is hell
To all who wait
Break it
Break it
Hey!
We want amnesty
From what you believe
To be above and beyond the law
But it ain't no thing
But just a prime example
Of the way things are run
Run in the wrong direction
No good for anyone, no
Protesting trivial matters
Is a waste of time
But when you're sending reckless youth
To the front line
Can only spur resistance
From both young and old
Because of special interest
That you keep to yourself, you
Increasing casualties
Becomes the result
Of patriotic bullshit
And it's all your fault
So we will flee the land
Until you decide
That you'll exonerate
Us from this imaginary crime
Amnesty
Amnesty
In through your window a pair of big eyes watching you and your bitch make love
The thoughts that he thinks while watching the innocent lovers can scare you to death
His fantasies can't be controlled, he's a voyeur, he's been that way all of his life
He tries to live out what he sees in his mind even though he could end up in jail
Indecent obsessions
Unbridled aggressions
Indecent obsessions
Unbridled aggressions
Chased by a man with a knife in his hand while being seen dressed in drag
Because he followed that man and his wife to their doorstep and watched them enter the house
Around to the side by the window hoping he'll get his means of release
But then he was spotted so all he could think of was "run for his life"
Indecent obsessions
Unbridled aggressions
Indecent obsessions
Unbridled aggressions
In through your window a pair of big eyes watching you and your bitch make love
The thoughts that he thinks while watching the innocent lovers can scare you to death
His fantasies can't be controlled, he's a voyeur, he's been that way all of his life
He tries to live out what he sees in his mind even though he'll end up in jail
Indecent obsessions
Unbridled aggressions
Indecent obsessions
You better run, better hide, white spotlight in the schoolyard
They wanna know who's gonna fall and their spines are chilling
We're gonna win, they're gonna die, watch the knives and bullets fly
Don't know when it will end, I'm just a member in a gang
It don't mean that you're clean, because you ain't killed nobody
Because you know every ruthless scumbag, and that's no lie
But when it's time to get in line, your fear starts to show
But it's your obligation to the devil, because you're a member in a gang
Yes I am
Another night in the slam, say you're bought and paid for
I wanna know who's on my side when the chips are down
Was backstabbed, shot him dead, there's no end to the grief
A flash of lightning shocks you to the bone
The roar of thunder you hear someone moan
A blinding flash of light and you feel
That touch against your skin, you know it's steel
They'll try to find you, they won't let you die
They'll seek you out, you know they'll try
A sharp explosion rings through your ears
Your time is coming, your fate is near
He didn't know
That he'd die
But it's the price you pay
When you're a mercenary
You take a look around and all you can see
Smoke and confusion staring back at me
You wake at daybreak, you're still alive
You fight to stay awake, your will to survive
Back in the jungle, the children cry
Burning napalm, it's time to die
You fought in deserts, you fought in gangs
You're the assassin and you're deranged
He didn't know
That he'd die
But it's the price you pay
When you're a mercenary
You've been a mercenary nearly all of your life
No time for family, can't keep your wife
The pain you're in is too much to hold
You'll die soon anyway, fighting alone
So now it's over, silence closes in
That's what you get when you just can't win
He didn't know
That he'd die
But it's the price you pay
When you're a mercenary
Mercenary
In an abandoned warehouse late at night in the shipping yards
The gangsters keep a watchful eye for the man in blue
As a loaded semi pulls up to an empty dock
The rear door opens to reveal the demon alcohol
CHORUS:
Restriction drinking's against the law
Prohibition the demon alcohol
A heavy profit's to be turned on this mountain dew
But if you're caught you might get killed or thrown in jail
But what's the fuss it's soon to be legal anyway
So you may as well go with the flow of things to come
CHORUS
What you see is what you get on a one shot deal
So make it now and worry later about the end result
When the loaded semi pulls up to the empty dock
You'll get another week's supply of alcohol
Up from the dungeons of hell
Came the mightiest devil of all
Dealing out danger or buying your soul
They put him to death by the sword
With hellfire eyes he went wild as he spoke
Disciples must answer his call
This demon lead armies to conquer the world
Destroy all mankind with war
He can't last much longer
There ain't no place for him to hide
And only we can stop him
Kill the enemy
Shoot him down
Kill the enemy
People would follow whatever he'd say
Hypnotized masses would fall
Into your town stormtroopers came
Laying waste, raping some, killing all
Try to resist and you'll die a slow death
You'd suffer, you'd beg and you'd crawl
Perversion and mayhem, havoc and pain
Satan has come to us all
He can't last much longer
There ain't no place for him to hide
And only we can stop him
Kill the enemy
Shoot him down
Kill the enemy
This demon spoke long of superior race
The aryan empire strong
He killed by the millions, he took life so cheap
Now his spectres are still standing tall
He can't last much longer
There ain't no place for him to hide
And only we can stop him
Kill the enemy
Shoot him dead
