To protect this generation
from the raging east infection
market another british invasion
or 80-th regurgitation
or more cultural inbreeding
oor more garbage prefeeding
to protect this generation
from the east infection!
aiiiiiget down here as a cheap labor force
but i beat the system everywhere i goes
no matter how many times i get ordained
the message is still the same:
666666666666666...

Sitting in the russian bath house on the avenue b
No matter how much we sweat we just can't agree
Ai razminku yorshikom provodim my
Nobody learns no nothing from no history
Tall little sally plays with magic ebbles
Dasha sells equipment to the chechnian rebels
Ya vihozgu iz anala v astral
Tam mnogo chego slishal no ne zapisal
Nesmotrja na se. she. a. ne poterjal azarta
Buhaju strogo kazdoje 8-e marta
Sitting in the bath house on the avenue b
And never agree..
...But sally all empires fall... even trends they fade away
Even complete (stranger) asshole can lead you astray..
But god damn it, next round is on me
Nobody learns no nothin' from no history
Tall little sally my darlin' your panic is so charming
Your shopping techniques are amazing
Your celebrity erudition is disarming... yura viruchai!

Tu me estas dando mala vida
Yo pronto me voy a escapar
Gitana mia por lo menos date cuenta
Gitana mia por favor
Tu me dejas respirar
Tu me estas dando mala vida

Cada dia se la traga mi corazon !

Dime tu porque te trato yo tan bien
Cuando tu me hablas como un cabron
Gitana mia !
Mi corazito est?ufriendo
Gitana mia por favor
Sufriendo mal nutricion
Tu me estas dando mala vida

Cada dia se la traga mi corazon !

Pioneer is Pioneer, it's a way of life
special way of mind border-lining crime
Pioneer is first and gives the most
ain't no need for further props.
Pioneer gets down in the motherfuckin' mud
makes a goldmine out of dump
but you know who gets even bigger cut?

Copy-copy-copy-copy-copycat!
Copy-copy-copy-copy-copycat!
Digging like an ostrich in the motherfucking mud
Just the please the Copycat!

Now Copycat is Copycat and as we learn
it's whole discipline of its own:
same walk, same talk, but just no heart
that's trade mark of the Copycat.
These days Copycat always gets paid
we call America for Amerigo Vispucci
but Columbus gets all the Kuchi-Kuchi
Kuchi-Kuchi-Kuchi-Copycat... Cut!

My strange uncles from abroad
yes I never met'em!
but I took everything they wrote
and I'll never forget 'em!
Through the mystical communication
Deep within it all comes through
forming underground railroad
for our ultimate breakthrough!
My strange nephews from abroad
maybe I'll never meet 'em
They'll take everything I wrote and I'd never forbid 'em!Lyrics
My strange uncles from beyond
I'll meet 'em on the cosmos street
and we will drink to how we told
to never trust a plastic beat
Through the mystical communication
deep within it all comes through
forming underground railroad
for our ultimate break through!

So now you tell me you are living in a country
Where joys and freedom they can not be tried
But alone in your mind there are so many rooms
That you never seem to find..
There is a room where your toolbox is waiting
But you just never go there when you are awake
When most of the time whatever that you look for
You could of just sit down and make
So do "the right thing". just do "the right thing"
How can you do it if you are awake?!
Instead I scratch my forehead like Aladdin his lamp..

'Cus even in Madagascar
We'll find some shack below radar
Put two turntables and a film projector in that room
And punk rock 'n' roll most faithfully..
It will occure-cure-cure! ... cure cure cure!

Instead you run to your little birdfeeder
And stick your beak in the seeds your master laid
Where did they came from? who put them in there?
LyricsOh you will never know their name!
But there is a room where bustle and merry
And big ceremony could be going on
Where your true talents along with birthrights
Could be dancing can-can
'Cus even in Madagascar... and even in Antarctica!
Even in Azerbaijan!
Put two turntables and a film projector in that room
And punk rock 'n' roll most faithfully..
It will occure-cure-cure! ...cure! cure! cure!
...And sewing machine too!
