Te souviens-tu encore D'la commune des couronnes Où flottait le drapeau noir Au milieu du boulevard C'était autour du feu Qu'on se sentait heureux On faisait des méchouis Un peu toutes les nuits
Te souviens-tu encore De ces concerts sauvages De la rue des vilains Ils sont fous ces romains ! On ce couchait à l'aube Et on se levait le soir On décorait nos piaules Et on chantait victoire !
Te souviens-tu encore De c'p'tit bar squatté On avait pas eu tort De l'appeller "mal-famé" Et quand un car passait Tout le monde s'mettait Les keufs n'était pas nettes Sous une pluie de canettes !
Quelque part dans la Gaule Un p'tit squat résiste On y boit de la gnôle Son promoteur tourix Maintenant qu'il n'y plus rien On ne regrette rien Car il poussera demain Des squats comme des petits pains!
Pour tous les mal-logés Il y a un comité Et même dans ton quartier Il y a de quoi squatter Pour tous les mal-logés Il y a un comité Qui défend le quartier Du promoteur sans coeur
Ainsi squattent-ils Sans droit ni titre Ainsi squattent Sans toi ni loi Ainsi squattent-ils Souvent fauchés Ainsi squattent Toujours marteau !
Brutal planet, 1999
Don't sing me lullabies
I won't close my eyes,
I can't close my eyes
It's true,
I'm doomed
'til dawn
Shines through
Got too many things to do
Got friends to see,
I can't miss a thing
It's true,
I'm through
I'm screwed,
Unglued
I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes,
I never close my eyes
You see, they're always there with funny hair,
Oh, I'm so scared
It happens to me every night
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
They always want to take a bite
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
And if you think this isn't real
I'll show you wounds that never heal
To them I'm just a happy meal
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
Make the coffee black as night
Help me through the night
I know their appetite for me
I'm meat
But I'm sweet
As can be
And if I do too much booze
I begin to snooze
I hear the big old floppy shoes
It's true,
I'm stew,
Unchewed
I won't close my eyes, I can't close my eyes,
I never close my eyes
See, they're always there with that funny hair,
Oh, I'm so scared
It happens to me every night
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
They always want to take a bite
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
And if you think this isn't real
I'll show you wounds that never heal
To them I'm just a happy meal
Can't sleep, the clowns will eat me
Over the edge, 1983
It's not the truth I see
It's just a mockery
Don't need to waste my time
You know I've really tried
You take and never give
Make it so hard to live
I'm hanging on a ledge
Push me over the edge
Don't do the things you do
Don't have to oblige you
Makin' choices on my own
Don't buy their trite or drone'
Grow up and be a man
Drop dead right where I stand
I'm hanging on a ledge
Push me over the edge
It's not the truth I see
It's just a mockery
Don't need to waste my time
You know I've really tried
You take and never give
Make it so hard to live
I'm hanging on a ledge
Push me over the edge
Plagued By Thy Angel, 2001
Her shadows mourn in moonlight
Dark traces for the soul to feed
Each wound that transforms her
Is mine to conquer and bewitch
As storms breathes inside of her
Winds of faith heals and grieves
This temptress that haunts my desire
Turned death endlessly against me
I draw the circled pentagram extreme
Wishing that death would reanimate
That flesh becomes the truth
Amongst the stars above her bones
Shattered, abused by the night
Torched alit by graveyard mists
That died together with her sins
Shaping her frigid flesh dead and dried...
By spells of sacred daughters
That departed their misdeeds
I crave my nightly courtesan
To violate my sense again
And as the final sunset
As the moon, the stars, the sky...
I placed my soul in gratitude
To darkness, to the gates of pain...
"Behold its glory, the night alit,
Our shadows painted, in the light of the moon
Our dark secrets, unknown to mankind
As I, the breeder, devoured thy mortal soul..."
Wings aroused, as moonlit flesh emerged
From wastelands deep down the ground
As icons in stone bowed for the animated dead
I forced thy entry to the final world
"Behold its glory, the night alit,
Our shadows painted, in the light of the moon
Our dark secrets, unknown to mankind
As I, the breeder, devoured thy mortal soul..."
My slumbering beauty, possessing nightly grandeur
Endless, and forever, I am thine, eternally
I was spellbound from eyes of sapphire jewelry
And the sins from the depths of thy soul
Enchanted by thy darkness
My Queen of lust and urge
I watched thy shadow, mourning in the dark
So cold and dead, so dead and dried
Seductress of my dreams, I wither with thee
My flesh, my true nocturnal blood...
"Behold its glory, the night alit,
Our shadows painted, in the light of the moon
Our dark secrets, unknown to mankind
As I, the breeder, devoured thy mortal soul...
Tyranny and Mutation, 1973
Riding the underground
Swimming in sweat
A rumble above and below
Hey cop don't you know
The heat's on all right
The hot summer day didn't quit for the night
1277 express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
1277 express to heaven
Rumbles the steel like a dogfight
You caught me in a spell
Trying to leave but you know darn well
The heat from below can burn your eyes out
Blackened out eyes
Scratched on the wall
Stoned out looks from the crowd
The king will not know
On the wall it was said
The flash of his cards was sprayed with red
1277 express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
1277 express to heaven
Rumbles the steel like a dog fight
You caught me in a spell
Trying to leave but you know darn well
The heat from below can burn your eyes out
1277 express to... 1277 express to heaven
Speeding along like dynamite
1277 express to heaven
Rumbles the steel like a dogfight
You caught me in a spell
Trying to leave but you know darn well
The heat from below can burn, Yeah burn!
It can burn your eyes
Your eyes out!
Out! out! out! out!
Out! out! out! out!
Tales of creation, 1989
A black star fell down the night I was reborn
A last chance to save us, a last chance to turn dusk to dawn
The vultures they cried out
Their welcome to greet my arrival
The shadows they danced for my death
At the nightmare's trial
The demons of fear tearing my sad soul apart
A horned winged creature laughed out its scorn to the dawn
The sun wasn't able to send down its light, swallowed by thoughts in my mind
Dark was my conscience, I was the last of my kind
I was dead
Awake in hell
A lonely corpse
To break the spell
A soul in flames
A heart in chains
Can't you see
You must believe
The witchbrew was drained, I couldn't escape my fate
Wrong was this place full with awful disgrace and hate
Sweet ancient memories, fragments of times that have passed
Came to my mind like a blessing with grace for my eyes
I was dead
Awake in hell
A lonely corpse
To break the spell
A soul in flames
A heart in chains
Chapter 13, 1998
We all go down & I love every moment
You played & lost & you don't even know it
And every day breaks into a thousand pieces
And the rats leave ship, admitting isn't easy
'Cause I'm one-four-nine on a scale of ten
All you loathe is what I am
chapter 13
Shattered Dreams & A bad moon risin'
You dream of hell & your fear is no surprise
And I'm no prophet but your downfall is true
And the back of my head is now facing you
'Cause I'm one-four-nine on a scale of ten
All you loathe is what I am
chapter 13
'Cause I'm one-four-nine on a scale of ten
All you loathe is what I am
