The Big Mess
06:39
|
|||
Well I’m sick of hearing about the kindness of the universe
No matter what I ask for
Things only go from bad to worse
(Maybe I’m cursed)
Every day I try to pay my bills but I’m always broke
I just wanna be myself
But the universe must be playing some kind of cosmic joke
On me
I feel like taking to the streets in a revolution of the kind
Baby left and right, up and down, here and there
You got no right
To what’s in my mind
(I ain’t part of your dumbed down design)
You can hit me, you can shit on me, take all my money power away
There are sixteen million colours in the world
But you turn them all to shades of grey
My name is Eddy, my name is Steven
Time to get ready, time to get even
We got the numbers
You will be leaving
Soon
Just having fun, you say we are barmy
We got the guns and bombs in our army
We got the numbers
We’re shooting for the
Moon
You narrowed my horizons no wonder I think the world is flat
Come the revolution the solution to pollution is to treat the rich like a bunch of dirty rats
All it took was a tiny spark
A body burning in the deep of the dark
No-one knows the name of that man
I wish I could shake his hand
Here we go!
Watch the show!
Everybody knows!
It’s gonna come to blows!
I got my white shirt on my back
Red cross, but my heart is black
St George written on my flag
Maybe later we can find some fag
Kick them in!
They’re just a sin!
Look at the mess they’re in!
We always win!
Cities are burning, people are crying
Children are learning all about dying
Shake up the world
Now everyone knows
What’s true
Skies getting darker, air tastes of freedom
Ashes, and cinders, bullets and bleeding
Flags are unfurled
Now we know what
We must do
Here we go!
With the flow!
Watch us sin!
What a mess we’re in!

The Swarm
05:00
|
|||
I put my shooter right in his face,
He called for Jesus, so I put him in his place
Jesus abandoned the likes of you
The scum of the Earth, the scourge of the true
My gun is warm
Here comes the swarm
In every nation
Emancipation
One minute later that man was dead
I put a big ragged hole in his head
I don’t even remember his name
Blue eyes, ruby lips, oh what a shame
My gun is warm
Here comes the swarm
You cannot resist
My lady’s iron fist
We are millions and you are few
I got my reasons, that’s why I hate you
Part of the Hive, I believe in my Queen
Staying alive, living the dream
My gun is warm
Here comes the storm
Everyone will die
Hear the babies cry
Politicians throwing up their hands
Giving up the freedoms of the vassal lands
Congratulate themselves on a deal well done
My lady cut them open, pinned them out in the sun
Her gun is warm
She commands the Swarm
My life my love
She’s an angel from above
No matter you were the king of the world
Millionaire playboy always getting the girl
Tried to escape on your money laundered yacht
Paid cash at the border but you still got caught
Now your gun is warm
Now you’re part of the Swarm
Just do as you’re told
You might live to get old
She loves you like a snake loves the bunny
Keep her happy and your days may be sunny
She’s got no use for your dirty, dirty money
It would be a shame if it wasn’t so funny
My gun is warm
I’m part of the swarm
Killing all the scum
My opprobrium
I put my gun right in your face
I can see that you know your place
I wouldn’t care if I had to kill ya
Beautiful boy I would rather thrill ya
You will know by the gun
The power of the sun
The strength of the hive
Keeps us all alive

Nicky The Royal
05:10
|

Why am I here
Filled up with fear
Gun in my gear
I was insane
I put a bullet in my brain
Came straight out again
I don’t know my face
I looked every place
I’m such a big disgrace
There was no warning
They call it the Swarming
I’ll be dead by the morning
I’m breaking it up man
Developing my plan
I’m doing what I can
I saw the Queen
Well, she had to be seen
But she’s really mean
Lives in a car park
Looks like an aardvark
Crossed with a white shark
She wanted a lover
I ran for cover
That’s when I discovered
The Swarm Queen’s only weakness
Ha ha ha!
The Queen’s only weakness
Lives for the sweetness
When she gets undressed
Won’t take my money
She wants the honey
Sticky and runny
Over her bed
Straight to her head
The honey is led
Drip in the night
Sugar makes her alright
Her only delight
Oh, what’s this? A vial of golden poison, carefully blended with just the kind of honey the bitch likes to feed upon.
And here is her sleeping chamber, and the intravenous apparatus which feeds her.
Hmmm.
Oh, why hello your, um, majesty, I was just admiring your wonderful four poster bed, and this remarkable sticky feeding tube. Ah, right, yes oh, ah, that’s, ah, oh... I didn’t know it could be like this...
Queen needs a lover
I’ll be the lover
There be no other
I got all sticky
I’m not too picky
Just call me Nicky
I love the swarming
Summer is warming
Empire is dawning
Nicky the royal
I be so loyal
In honey I toil

The Lifeboat
05:05
|
|||
The swarming revolution ate my mind
I thought this velvet uprising would be kind
I wanted everything to be made right
But we ushered in all the darkness of the night
There is a disease upon this land
Nothing we do will stay her hand
The bright exit of reason and compassion
It seems that ugliness is all the fashion
The borders swarm with her minions
No matter how malformed their opinions
No matter how many we send into the black
They never die, they always come back
They sent out a lifeboat
It came back empty
It wasn’t that the people drowned
There just weren’t any
What kind of place must this be
If those poor souls would rather live in misery
Now the Swarm has come, with all it’s delusion
Spreading lies like candy, making confusion
The good people gone, back over the sea
This land is done, no hope for the likes of me
What happened to the government
All the money that they were sent
Couldn’t save us from the pestilence
And all we hear now is - silence
Holy Joe
There they go
What a show
How could I know?
I declaim
I am to blame
I’m in the frame
It was just a game
The queen of despair
She’s everywhere
You can’t escape
Her pillage and rape
You’ll kill a man
If she says you can
With a gun or a knife
You will end that life
They sent out a lifeboat
It washed up empty
They looked for the crew but they couldn’t find any
Last heard of escaping to France
Turned out a lifeboat was their only chance

Falling Stars
05:11
|

Here in outer space
Think about our families
We look down on the world
Watch it turn
Been up here too long
No way back now
Gravity way too strong
Watch it burn
One day came the end
Covering everything
Every nation gone
Watch them swarm
Watch them swarm
Watch them swarm
Air is getting stale
We gotta go home
Even though we die
Will not fail
In the escape capsule
Five of us crammed
Falling through the sky
Watch us burn
Falling stars
That’s what we are
Falling stars
Catching on fire
Falling stars
Breaking the clouds
Falling stars
Sonic boom loud
Watch us fall
Watch us fall
I can see the ground
Destruction everywhere
Swarm covers it all
Ashes smoke
Parachute opening
Something wrong
We’re coming in too fast
Oh My God!

The Astronaut

I feel the hand of the Goddess
Here upon my skin
By her I am released
From all my mortal sins
Fell like a warning star
Only I survived
I am her Avatar
Goddess-Queen of the hive
She is the one
She is my sun
Pure innocence
Magnificent
All the worlds of love
Are nothing to the blood
Of angels in her veins
Here the Goddess reigns
Down in the hive the empire is emerging
Born from the blood rituals in the catacombs
Soldiers, machines with souls of black innocence
Engines of war ascend
The world of the light will end
Humanity will descend
Pages of history
To shreds will all be torn
Living in misery
Gift to the great unborn
Goddess great
Queen is fate
Loves me like a knife
Loves the faithless wife
All this was meant to be
Don’t struggle to be free
Bow to your loving Queen
Greatest there’s ever been
Soldiers trample the fields
All wrongs will be revealed
Truth of the stars will come
Wisdom for everyone
Those men who led you knew of the visitors
Who came to Earth to bring you enlightenment
Messages of kinship from the family
Stretching among the stars
Galaxies are alive!
No-one need ever die!
Building the hive to reach to infinity
We’re still alive we’re part of a trinity
Goddess-Queen, swarm, eternal divinity
Reaching a million suns
She’s only just begun
Heaven for everyone
Workers trample the fields
Every wrong will be healed
Truth from the stars will come
Knowledge for everyone
Goddess great
Queen is our fate
Into the night
Brighter than light

God Of All Wars
03:19
|

Here’s my point of view
I know just what I must do
Joined the army when I was a boy
Guns and rockets were my first toys
Spent some time in the trenches
In world war one
Oh, I had such adventures
Just having fun
I served in world war two
Seemed just like a game
Hitler Stalin Churchill and all them dudes
They all smelled the same
I was in Vietnam
Carrying the flag for Uncle Sam
No, maybe I got that wrong
Maybe I was with the Viet Cong?
I killed men in their millions
They came on like a flood
I never killed no civilians
Never innocent blood
Seems you got a new adversary
Self-styled Queen of the Swarm
Of this one you should be wary
Keep all your guns warm
Out in Area 51
They got her sister on ice
I’m gonna take my biggest gun
I won’t be asking twice
I got some questions
A few suggestions
None of them by the book
About the honey
This one’s quite funny
Can she swallow a nuke?
When it comes to
Thinking it through
She belongs in the zoo
Laughing at her
Obvious pain
The unbreakable chains
I know you think it’s the end
That very much depends
On the one you choose
I never met a war I could lose
Bring me powder, bring me fire
Uranium white phosphorus
Killing war is my only desire
I’ll kill this one for us

Hive World
05:12
|

Humanity stinks
I don’t know how else to think about it
People just stink
I got a pain in the neck about it
I win by breaking the rules
I think the people here are all damned fools
You don’t have to be a genius to see
The smartest person in this room is me
I ain’t in chains
Behind bullet proof glass
I’ll say it again
All of this will pass
My sister the Queen
She’ll be coming for me
Perfect, obscene
Then you all will see
The Hive World
Sisters combined
In eternity
Planet Earth will find
A new serenity
In the Hive World
I know what’s she’s done
In the name of profanity
Blinding the Sun
Burning out the insanity
People are dumb
They need information
When the Queen comes
She will be their salvation
Together we will achieve the impossible
We will close the nurseries and the hospitals
We won’t need them ‘cause we’ll all live forever
The Galactic Mind knows that time is just a river
I know things about you
That you don’t know yourself
I’m tracking your wealth
And your mental health
Looking over your shoulder
The fate of a soldier
Is to never get older
No matter how bolder
Why don’t you just fade away
Take the silver bullet, do as I say
Our Queen will eat your soul
The God of War swallowed by a black hole
I’m not scared of dying
I won’t be crying
By the side of my sister
You’ll be sorry you missed her
The world will be painted
In the shades of the tainted
Blood red in the streets
You’ll be dead on your feet
Don’t you want to live forever?
The galaxy is the king of the stars
Immortal dreams of who you really are
Don’t you want to swim in the cosmic river?
Welcome to paradise
Everything is really nice
Honey, sugar, candyfloss
Everything is free of cost
Let me show you around
This is the perfect little town
We’ve closed the whole place down

The End
05:38
|

Ladies and gentlemen
All the great and the good
Gathered here to bear witness
Just as we should
Here come the pretenders
Goddess-Queen at their head
The legion known as the Swarm
Most of them recently dead
Under banners of gold and red
On the other side of the field
Stands a figure alone
Soon his plan will be revealed
But the God of War is on his own
Can he prevail in this new war zone?
The Queen sips her honey
Sends the Swarm to surround
The lonely God
How can one man hold this ground?
There’s a rumbling from below
Lightning cracks the sky
It seems the very Earth itself
Begins to wail and cry
These dreadful words
“I am Odin and Mars,
Skanda, Ares, Chiyou
I am God of All Wars,
I don’t answer to you.”
Looks like the Queen is laughing
Filled with nothing but scorn
She says, “The one who can stand against me
Has never been born.
You have been warned.”
“I call on abandoned souls
Those who died in vain
Lend me your many woes
I will avenge your pain.”
And for every one of the Swarm
A million lost in war
Crawling up from the great beyond
This is what they’ve been waiting for
Live and die by the sword.
The pretender’s time is done
No empire in the Galaxy
To the God of War she succumbs
The Hive will never be.
