A Ja Ljublju SSSR (Russian: I love the USSR)


I want to smell the celestial taste of the iron
I want to see the sanguineous scent of the iron
It does exist I know!

Not everybody can while streching their arms
Grasp the fortune and slap her on the face
To make her solid and obedient
To make her tender and heated

A Ja Ljublju SSSR
A Ja Ljublju SSSR...

The fire of an heart which sets on fire the mind
It can melt the ice of the boiling marble
I pay honour to the arm which moves the loom
I pay honour to the force which moves the steel
It does exist I know!

Ja Ljublju SSSR
A Ja Ljublju SSSR...



Manifesto (Manifest)


Soviets and electricity
Don't make Communism
Even if as a matter of facts
They didn't pass in Stalingrad

Even if as a matter of facts
They didn't pass in Stalingrad
Long live the President
Long live the President!

You don't undersell it you don't undersell it
Not even if it doesn't work
No sales of hope no sales of existence
No votes\vows to the Holly Mary
And given the hour the look the bad reputation
The unlimited desires the need of infinite
It does refine your feelings it does refine your feelings
Transgress the rituals transgress the rituals
You are much more worth than an economical rise
You deserve much more than a guaranteed job that you will not have
That you will not have that you will not have that you will not have...

Big is the confusion above and below the sky
To dare is impossible, to dare, to dare is to lose
Big impossible, to dare is confusion
The sky is above and belove
You can only get lost you can only get lost
You can only get lost...

Big is the impossible, to dare is confusion
The sky is above and below
You can only get lost you can only get lost

Ta-yung took another rocket turned the bazooka aimed the jeep
Ta-yung took another rocket turned the bazooka aimed the jeep
Ta-yung took another rocket turned the bazooka aimed the jeep
Long live Ta-yung long live Ta-yung...



Blu (Blue)


whoever has waited waits
that it's finished the delay of whoever attends
I'm not structured so as to be able to still resist in order a lot

under the apparent calm
a deafening noise
noisy and confused dissonances
disconnected and breathlesnessed harmonies
light ripples to the edges
I have given to my pain the shape of misused words
that I promise me to don't anymore pronounce
implacable alimentary chain
calm pauses fit to the digestion
mute intransigences
hot tempered devotions

I have given my pain the form of misused words
that I promise me to don't anymore pronounce
I have given my pain the form of misused words
lets to lose delays and returns
I have opened the crinkled edge's eyes
I have seen the blue dawn



Curami (Cure Me)


Cure me cure me cure me
Take me under treatment to you (2)
Cure me cure me cure me
So that you will have me as your desire (2)
Cure me cure me cure me

They will come at the counterattack with helms and new weapons
They will come at the counterattack but now in the meantime
Cure me

I'm a therapy (4)

They will come at the counterattack with helms and new weapons
They will come at the counterattack but now in the meantime
Cure me



Roco Roço Rosso (Roco Roço Red)


"Darkness has come over the campfires
St. Petersburg, exploded, has sinked,
shot by a submarine
and only if a hot breath of wind
makes the thick darkness wave
we can remember restless storms
from above and around"
1st of May with anger
greedy road anger
crowded road in war-time
empty under the shots

Scratch desires
on the stones, on the pieces of asphalt
Carve them in the sky like stars
Burn, divine tongs
over the world
love lathe, burn words of fire
which care for me, for my understanding
roco
forge my breath, my face, my smile with fire
roco roço red
1st of May with love
greedy love, never satisfied
full of flesh and soul
and empty under the shots

eyes now check new colours
electric, translucent, never seen before
yeah, all that was with us
it was
all that is, is here with us
life - it's strange to say it - is one
1st of May with boredom
roco roço red
roco roço red



Hong Kong


Modern times, strong, new, interesting
I had to say to you
Hong Kong, come back home
good luck, Hong Kong
Hong Kong
Hong Kong



Sura


"I don't adore what you adore
and you don't adore what I adore
I don't worship what you worship
and you don't worship what I worship"



Live in Pankow


Live in Moscow live in Budapest live in Warsaw
Live in Sofia live in Prague live in Pankow
haupstadt der DDR     (German: capital of East Germany)

East European comrades
one more effort
in dance-halls
a little more than shitty
a public opinion
a little less stupid

I want to take shelter under Warsaw Pact
I want a five-year plan, I want stability
Live in Moscow live in Budapest live in Warsaw
Live in Sofia live in Prague live in Pankow

EAST BERLIN WEST BERLIN
EAST BERLIN WEST BERLIN
TRANCE EUROPE EXPRESS
TRANCE EUROPE EXPRESS
On both sides of the Wall
Europe lost, in trance
in Alexander Platz
as in Piazza del Duomo
lately, my friends
on both sides of the Wall
under N.A.T.O. and Warsaw Pact

I want to take shelter under Warsaw Pact
I want a five-year plan, I want stability
Live in Moscow live in Budapest live in Warsaw
Live in Sofia live in Prague live in Pankow
haupstadt der DDR
a piece of Berlin
haupstadt der DDR



Del Mondo (About the World)


Once upon a time the World was young and strong
it smelled of Blood, it was fertile
flourishing with Struggles and Crowds
it shone, and wanted much

Families, pregnant Women
and Rubs
Faces, Legs, Stomaches, Arms

the Home of Flesh
Reserve of Heat
Taste, familiar Smell

That's a Woman's Hollow that
creates the World
watches over Time and protects it

it holds a Man's Membrum
which gets up and pushes
and then destroys, unsatisfied

Our World now is weak and old
shed Blood stinks, it is infected

Wicked Poverty, Misfortune
Have Pity on your children

You glorify Life
and let glory be
You glorify Life
and glory is



Finistère


Annus horribilis in decade malefica
(Latin: a horrible year in a wicked decade)
a wicked decade in a stupid century
an indecent and timorous century
streaming with blood and empty of promises

horrible year

here shadows delay
words confuse
sides are separated
fires are grown
lost images undergo to
commanded therapies
under blind looks
among infinite miseries

this is the news this is the news

the sky is a soft weak shield
the vacuum fascinates, the emptiness charms
the dark side moves forward
goes up, rises, dazzles
it steals my eyes and I was already blind
I know I know I know
it steals my eyes

horrible year

I know the words said, written, syllabized
astonished tendernesses and insane tensions
they are tending to the Big Bang
they are tending to the Big Bang
everything is tending to the Big Bang



Forma e Sostanza


I know the habits, know the prices
And I don't want to buy nor to be bought
Attracted, strongly attracted
civilized yes civilized
comfortable, but how can I say, there's little satisfaction
comfortable, but how can I say, there's little satisfaction
satisfaction, Lord

A purer look at the world which civilization now is
by paying you decide: what how when
comfortable, but how can I say, there's little satisfaction
comfortable, but how can I say, there's little satisfaction
satisfaction, Lord

I want what is due to me
I want it 'cause it's mine
It waits for me

twentyfour thousands thoughts per second restlessly flow
breeding wishes and needs

I want what is due to me I want it 'cause it's mine It waits for me
I want what is due to me I want it 'cause it's mine It waits for me



Cupe Vampe (Dark Blazes)


Suddenly the night comes
The harsh cold wedges in
The city shivers
Livid, it shivers.

The library is burning, the handwritten and copied books
That the Sephardit Jews bring to Sarajevo escaping from Spain.

The stakes are rising to the sky
The stakes are rising in dark blazes.

The library of the southern Slavics, balcanian Europeans, is burning
The books are burning
Possible journeys, the maps, the memories, the help from the others.

The stakes are rising to the sky
The stakes are rising in dark blazes
The eyes are rising to the sky
The stakes are rising in dark blazes

Suddenly the night comes
The harsh cold wedges in
The city shivers
Like a child.

Dark blazes livid rooms
Snipering ethnic murdering eye
High sun: thirst and sweat
Full moon: no luck
The disarmed war is fucking us
The peace that kills here and there is fucking us
The priests, the popes, the mullahs,
The UN NATO and the civilization are fucking us
Nice living inside a basin moving target for every sniper
Nice living in Sarajevo city
This is the meanness tale.



Esco (I Go Out)


Memory
Talks
Comforting
The ages follow themselves (2)
Marvellous
And there's no absolute age
Something else was and will be
And how much and in what form.

The ages follow themselves (2)
Marvellous
And there's no absolute age
Something else was and will be
And how much and in what form.

Here light withdraws
The air is full of moanings
I peel the words, dry chips in front of the fire
Unsteadiness is what makes us firm in the daily uproot.

Memory
Talks
Comforting
The ages follow themselves (2)
Marvellous.



L'ora Delle Tentazioni (The Time Of Temptations)


Here comes the temptations' hour
This is the temptations' hour.

Wind fire, a door that slams
Thoughts
Words
I can all I want
I want all I can
A pink rose a rose a rose
Mystical rose
Fleshy rose fade beatiful rose
A pink rose a rose a rose.

Ah

Ah
Gold moslem pleasure and heavens. (2)
Ah

The house
The church
Well bred and honest
The house, the church, well bred and honest
A bell that rings, the night that comes
Catholic decorun (4)
The house, the church, well bred and honest
A bell that rings, the night that comes
Catholic decorun (4)
The house, the church, well bred and honest
A bell that rings, the night that comes
The light is turned off

They warm the sin's arms
They warm the firmament's cold (2)
How cold is the night
The night is cold, the night is cold

Ah



Linea Gotica (Gothic Line)


"Alba had been taken by 2000 men
the 10th of October
and was lost by 200 men
the 2nd of November
of year 1944"

Even desperation imposes some duties
And sadness can be precious

Not fearing one's time
Is a question of space

Clever amateurs
In wild parades
Personal reasons
A private question

The faculty of not hearing
The possibility of not looking
Common sense logic facts opinions
Recommendation
You must be careful to be self-
Controlled you must be careful

Not fearing one's time
Is a question of space

Clever amateurs
In wild parades
Personal reasons
A private question

The faculty of not hearing
The possibilty of not looking
Common sense logic facts opinions
Recommendation
You must be careful to be self-
Controlled you must be careful
My tiny motherland behind the Gothic line
Knows how to choose the side
You must be careful, you must be careful
In choosing the side behind the Gothic Line
Comandante Diavolo Monaco Obbediente (Those are partisans names)
Giovane Staffetta Ribelle Combattente
My tiny motherland behind the Gothic line
Knows how to choose the side

Never as today...
