1. ELASTICITY

[*burp*]
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa, where are you going, bebebe?
What are you saying? Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Nah, na-na-nothing
You blew, you blew me, baby, out of the water, bebe, out of the water, bebe, da-da-da-da-da-da
Nah, na-na-nothing

I won't be betrayed by you
I won't lie awake for today
Right away
I don't need to pray to you
I don't want to sacrifice my day, not this way

Muppetmamuppetmuppet, where are you going, bebe?
What are you saying? Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Nah, na-na-nothing
You blew, you blew me, baby, out of the water, bebe, out of the water, bebe, da-da-da-da-da-da
Nah, na-na-nothing

I won't be afraid of you
I won't lie and beg for today
Right away
No more fun and games for you
I don't need to sacrifice my day, not this way

Far and away, where the sorcerers have seen the lore
Turning night into day
With a fresh ratatouille of blood and gore
Never will we tread on the weak and the frail
Never will we switch the head for the tail
Never will we drink the milk from her pail
Never will we utter the word "before"

Don't you know revenge is upon the day?
Lovers have no remorse, dancing right through the rains
We must all kiss goodnight before they return again
Bright esoteric lights for all of us but the vain
No more searching for God when we are looking for the grains
Rectifying the cross for the loss of the slain
Now wipe the cane

2. YOUR MOM

The embedded hypocrisy fighting autocracy
With an army of convenience
From a region whose hopes and dreams bordered mediocrity
Profiteering through theocracy
Soldiers of fortune from the most unfortunate
Army of god carrying tripods
Extremism, dressed like your Mom
Against all known gods

Butchering, raping, killing, and burning, brutally beheading your enemies
What kind of retarded promises have led you to these prophecies
Despicable fool you're just a fucking tool, you'll never get to rule, you'll die on your knees
What kind of retarded finances have led you to these fantasies

Devised as fighters against the wrong
Riding our special horses
Funded and supported by royal decree
Don't forget radical greed

Butchering, raping, killing, and burning, brutally beheading your enemies
What kind of retarded promises have led you to these prophecies
Despicable fool you're just a fucking tool, you'll never get to rule, you'll die on your knees
What kind of retarded finances have led you to these fantasies

So you want to die
You wanna die
Gonna die for your god
Wanna die for your god
Wanna die for your god
Wanna die for your god

Butchering, raping, killing, and burning, brutally beheading your enemies
What kind of retarded promises have led you to these prophecies
Despicable fool you're just a fucking tool, you'll never get to rule, you'll die on your knees
What kind of retarded finances have led you to these fantasies

So you want to die
You wanna die
Gonna die for your god
Wanna die for your god
Wanna die for your god
Wanna die for your god

Now that we have an agreement with your Mom
Against the riches of the far right
Let's help your Mom wrong the right
And give her the green light

Let your Mom in and watch her wipe them out
Let your Mom in and watch her wipe them out
Let your Mom in and watch her wipe them out
Let your Mom in and watch her wipe them out
Let your Mom in and watch her wipe them out
Let your Mom in and watch her wipe them out
Let your Mom in and watch her wipe them out
Let your Mom in and watch her wipe them out

10, 20, 30, 40, 50
72 virgins
Nah bro


3. HOW MANY TIMES ?

How many times must we die
And how many times must we live
Why must the truth be denied
When will the truth be revealed
How many times must we learn
And how many times must we fall
How many times must we burn
For us to be one and all

You tell me that you're home again
The sun will wake up the sky
With feelings of love

How many times must we kill
And how many times must we win
When will the earth just stand still
So we can stop murdering our kin

You tell me that you're home again
The sun will wake up the sky
Why must we be born again
To revel in your light
With feelings of love

God waved us goodbye
To learn to love and to die
Death screams goodbye
We belong to the night

You prophesized all of this
From Belfast to Soweto
We canonized all profits
From Gaza to the ghettos
Injustice, we're the witness
To the dreamless and the hopeless
Forgiveness for the witness
In this callous prognosis

God waved us goodbye
To learn to love and to die
Death screams goodbye
We belong

God waved us goodbye
To learn to love and to die
Death screams goodbye
We belong to the night

How many times must we die
And how many times must we live


4. RUMI

Oh, dear Rumi
My little baby I love you
You move me, my son
You improve me
Cause you're the one

The wisdom of the word, the source of all of creation
Ecstasy of devotion and the sound of every action
Striving to hear and see all life an anomaly
Never lose that wonder, the necessity of mystery

Be drunk with passion and the peaceful rivers of love
Close both your eyes and hear the distant flight of doves

When you're grown up in your prime
Stay away from God and crime
Embody justice for this tormenting, tormented world
You will learn something every day
Don't dip your toes, go all the way
Be the change you want to see and be the man you want to be

Oh dear Rumi, the supreme poet of love
You move me like the sun
Become the truth and hold it above all
Get lost in the breeze of the trees that stand tall

Don't you realize that it's all about knowledge and love
Close both your eyes and hear the distant flight of doves

When you're grown up in your prime
Stay away from God and crime
Embody justice for this tormenting, tormented world
You will learn something every day
Don't dip your toes, go all the way
Be the change you want to see and be the man you want to be

Man you want to be...

Dear son, I pray that your days are long
And your path matches your song
Your smile is worth every sacrifice in this life
Your breath now my reason to go on
I love you more than I ever could imagine
For any being on this earth

When you're grown up in your prime
Stay away from God and crime
Embody justice for this tormenting, tormented world
You will learn something every day
Don't dip your toes, go all the way

When you're grown up in your prime
Stay away from God and crime
Embody justice for this tormenting, tormented world
You will learn something every day
Don't dip your toes, go all the way
Be the change you want to see and be the man you want to be


5. ELECTRIC YEREVAN

Mismanaged foreign monopolistic utility firms
Should always be made public before we all burn
For the cost of heating we take another beating
Our wills are now seething, when will we all learn

Civic societies are burgeoning in the world

We don't want to be the bitch of any superpowers
Color revolutions fade, we want cheap power
Electric, electric, electric
Electric Yerevan
We say no to corruption and no to plunder
Billionaire playgrounds are going under
Electric, electric, electric
Electric Yerevan

Brutal police crackdowns with water cannons
Serve to irrigate the seeds of discontent and malcontent

Civil disobedience working like a charm

We don't want to be the bitch of any superpowers
Color revolutions fade, we want cheap power
Electric, electric, electric
Electric Yerevan
We say no to corruption and no to plunder
Billionaire playgrounds are going under
Electric, electric, electric
Electric Yerevan

It seems like the brutal police crackdown with water cannons and beating people up including journalists has predictably brought more people out into the streets of Yerevan today. This was a peaceful sit-in. The police had the right to clear it and legally detain people without undue force. The situation should not be politicized by foreign media or governments. This is a non-political reaction to an endemic economic marginalization of a large segment of the Armenian populace. The government of Armenia should make every effort to ameliorate the economic suffering of its citizens.

Fists up!

We don't want to be the bitch of any superpowers
Color revolutions fade, we want cheap power
Electric, electric, electric
Electric Yerevan
We say no to corruption and no to plunder
Billionaire playgrounds are going under
Electric, electric, electric
Electric Yerevan

Mismanaged foreign monopolistic utility firms
