I HAVE TO TELL AN ANECDOTE
I HAVE TO  I SHOULD  I MUST
I WANT TO - WHAT ABOUT THAT
I WANT TO - I WOULD LIKE TO

WHAT ABOUT BECOMING MORE FEMININE
A LITTLE BIT MORE FEMININE
I WOULD LIKE TO

THE MALE HAS TO - THE FEMALE WOULD LIKE TO
THE CHANCES OF GETTING IT  WHATEVER IT IS
ARE THE SAME  THE VERY SAME

THE MALE PRINCIPLE AND THE FEMALE PRINCIPLE
THEY ARE ONE AS COMBINED
AND THEY ARE COMBINED

&

TARA-RAP-TIRIP…TIRA-RARA-RAP  
WHAT A LYRICS ISN'T IT
I BELIEVE THAT WAS THE FIRST LYRICS
I'VE JUST CHANNELLED
IF YOU HAD THE TONGUE
RUMM-RUMM-RUMM  TARA-TARA  TARARARUM
IF YOU HAD THE TONGUE READYMADE FOR IT

THE TONGUE IS PRODUCED  THE HUMAN TONGUE IS PRODUCED
IN THE MOST METICULOUS WAY OF ALL PARTS OF THE BODY
THE CORE, LET'S SAY, OF THE BODY IS THE TONGUE

THREE-FUNCTIONAL LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE
THREE FUNCTIONS SO IMMENSELY DIFFERENT OF EACH OTHER
AS ARE SPEECH AND TASTING

THE TONGUE IS A SEXUAL ORGAN, A SPEECH ORGAN AND A TASTE ORGAN
THE ENTIRE DIGESTION DEPENDS ON THE TONGUE
THAT THE STOMACH DOESN'T HAVE TO DIGEST UNTASTEFUL THINGS

&

OOOH OOH-SSSHH
THE TONGUE HAS NOT MUCH TO DO WITH BREATHING
IN THE BREATHING THE TONGUE IS VERY PASSIVE
BECAUSE THE BREATHING IS NOT SPEECH - IT'S NOT ARTICULATION

SSSHH DOESN'T NEED A TONGUE TO MOVE
OOO DOESN'T NEED THE TONGUE TO MOVE
SO OSH HAPPENS WITHOUT THE TONGUE'S INVOLVEMENT
O IS A CIRCLE - SH IS LIKE A  SQUARE OF THE MOUTH

SSH  SSH
IT CAN TURN SERPENTINE IF YOU WANT IT - IT'S NOT FORBIDDEN
IT'S A CLEAR SH BUT YOU CAN TURN IT TOWARDS 
A THIRD VERSION OF SH
AND THAT IS S-ISH - SSSHHHH

&

WHAT THIS MUSIC IS IN THE BACKGROUND?
THIS MUSIC IN THE BACKGROUND NOW IS
ORDO EQUITUM SOLIS  ORDO EQUITUM SOLIS
USED TO MIX IT UP WITH ORDO EQUILIBRIO
IT'S IMMENSELY DIFFERENT - JUST THE ORDO AND THE EQUI
BUT OTHERWISE IT'S SO VERY DIFFERENT
AND THEY ARE ALSO VERY DIFFERENT BANDS

BANDS  WE CALL THEM BANDS STILL
THESE GOTH INDUSTRIAL COUPLES
BANDS  THE BAND THE BAND

THE BAND - THESE ARE BANDS
WHATEVER MUSIC THEY PLAY
THAT'S VERY GREAT OVERCOMING OF THE ROCK AND ROLL SPIRIT
THE SPIRIT OF ROCK AND ROLL
THAT HAS COVERED EVOLUTION
IT'S A MIRACLE - THE CREATION OF ROCK AND ROLL

&

THIS IS AN ITALIAN BAND
THE OTHER IS A SWEDISH BAND
THE SOUTH, EAST AND WEST AND NORTH
IT'S ALL MAGNETICALLY COMBINED
IN THE SPIRIT

THE SPIRIT OF ROCK AND ROLL  SAID THE JEW
BECAUSE THE JEW KNOWS IT
'CAUSE THE JEW MADE IT
THE LEIBER AND THE STOLLER THEY MADE IT

THE JEWS MADE ROCK AND ROLL TO DESTROY THE GOYS
THAT'S WHY ROCK AND ROLL WAS MADE
EVERYBODY KNOWS IT
TO DEFAME A GENERATION - THE WHITE BOYS

&

DON'T ASK IF IT'S TRUE OR NOT - WE LEAVE IT AT THAT
WE LEAVE IT THERE WHERE IT IS
IN THE REGION OF EVIDENCES

WE DON'T TOUCH EVIDENCES
EVIDENCES ARE EVIDENT  IT DON'T NEED A SECOND SUPERVISION
JUST LEAVE THEM ALONE  LEAVE THEM EVIDENT

DON'T HAVE TO CHANGE THEM 
DON'T HAVE TO CHANGE ANYTHING ANY MORE
THERE IS NOTHING NEW COMING NOW

COMES THE NIBURU  NIBURU COMES
THE NIBIRU COMES HOO-OO
I'M SO AFRAID  SO AFRAID  SO AFRAID
FROM THE NIBURU

&

THESE ARE POEMS FROM THE BARDO
ADDRESSING THE BARDO
IT'S FROM AND TO THE BARDO

YOU CANNOT DO ANYTHING ELSE
YOU CANNOT WRITE ANYHOW ELSE
YOU WRITE TO AND FROM
WHERE TO EQUALS FROM
AND FROM EQUALS TO

THAT'S WHERE YOU ARE IN THE SOLITARY CONFINEMENT
OF THE JOURNEY  THE JOURNEY THROUGH THE BARDO
THE JOURNEY THROUGH THE BARDO

&

BUT YOU WANTED TO TELL  YOU WANTED TO TELL
YOU WANTED TO TELL AN ANECDOTE

CHARLOTTE COME IN  HEY
HAY AND TELL YOUR ANECDOTE
LA-RA-LA-RAM

SO WHAT HAPPENED
RIGHT BEFORE I STARTED THIS RECORDING IS 

THAT I DRESS ON INTO THIS VIDEO GOWN
WHICH IS USUALLY THE SAME THING
BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE THE PATIENCE TO SELECT DRESSES ANY MORE
SO I ALWAYS TAKE ON THE SAME BROKEN SOCKS
AND THE SAME OVERUSED SKIRT
AND THE SAME BELT AND THE SAME SCARF
AND THAT'S IT
EVEN TO PUT ON THESE ITEMS IS AN INCREDIBLE TERROR

SO BACKSTAGE INFORMATION   BACKSTAGE INFORMATION
OTHERWISE I WEAR VERY NATURAL DRESSES
IN THE STREET  ON THE FLOOR ALREADY
I'M DRESSED LIKE A VERY MODERATE MOD
A MODERATE MOD - THAT'S HOW I DRESS
AS LITTLE VISIBILITY AS POSSIBLE
ALWAYS BLACK SINCE ABOUT 1996
I DON'T WEAR ANYTHING BUT BLACK
IT'S THE LEAST VISIBLE - MUCH LESS VISIBLE THAN WHITE

SO THAT'S HOW THE NEIGHBOURS KNOW ME
A VERY NEUTRAL LOOKING GUY - WITH A MOHAWK
THE MOHAWK MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO COMPREHEND IT
FOR THE FIRST MOMENT
THE CONTRAST OF THE HAIRDO AND THE AGE
WHAT I PROJECT IS HUGE  ENORMOUSLY HUGE

SO VERY MUCH ON THE BORDERLINE OF FREAK I AM AS A NEIGHBOUR
BUT I'M TRYING TO BE AS NEUTRAL AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE
AND VERY POLITE - THAT'S MY MAIN ATTITUDE
IT'S FROM SELF-DEFENCE
NO, I DON'T LIKE TO HELP PEOPLE - IT'S FROM SELF-DEFENCE SOLELY

BUT ALRIGHT - THE STORY IS
AFTER I TAKE ON MY DRESS
I SMOKE A QUARTER JOINT - ONE QUARTER
ONE SINGLE VERY SMALL JOINT
THAT'S MY LEVEL OF ADDICTION
ONE SINGLE VERY THIN JOINT I SHARE INTO THREE PARTS
AND THAT'S MY DAILY DOSE

I CANNOT DO WITHOUT IT
BUT IT'S NOT TOO MUCH IS IT
BUT IT'S A GRAVE ADDICTION
THAT THAT MUCH I ABSOLUTELY NEED
WITHOUT IT I'M DEAD

BUT I'M VERY MODERATE
ALSO WITH SMOKING I'M VERY MODERATE
I'M BASICALLY A MODERATE GUY
UNLIKE A MOD BUT THAT'S HOW I TRY TO DRESS

SO I HAD THIS QUARTER JOINT
BUT IT STILL LINGERS IN THE AIR
AND THE DOORS HAVE LARGE GAPS AROUND THEM
IT GOES OUT TO THE FLOOR
AND I DON'T WANT THAT THEY FEEL
THAT THERE IS A MARIJUANA ADDICT HERE NEXT ROOM

SO I TAKE MY AIR-SPRAY AND SPRAY OUT TO THE FLOOR
THAT IT WILL TAKE AWAY THE POTENTIAL SMELL
AND THAT'S WHAT I DID  AND DIDN'T LISTEN ENOUGH TO THE STEPS
I JUST TORE OFF THE DOOR TO SPRAY OUT
USED TO SPRAY OUT A DOLLAR SIGN
OR SOME OTHER SIGNS LIKE THE BLESSING OR SOMETHING

AND WHAT HAPPENED THAT IN THE FRONT DOOR 
THERE IS THE CHINESE FAMILY
AND I'M THERE IN MY HAND THE SPRAY
IN THIS DRESS WHAT YOU SEE NOW  WITH THE VEIL ON
WITH THE VEIL ON

ALL THE CHINESE FAMILY 
INCLUDING A VERY LITTLE TWO YEARS OLD CHILD
TURNS BACK AT ME
I TORE OFF THE DOOR SO STRONGLY
I WAS VERY NERVOUS FOR SOME REASON

YA I FORGOT - FIRST I FORGOT TO SPRAY
I WAS VERY NERVOUS THAT I FORGOT TO SPRAY
I HAD TO DO IT YET - THAT'S WHY THE VEIL WAS ALREADY ON
I USUALLY SPRAY BEFORE THE VEIL

WHAT CAN YOU DO IN SUCH A THEATRICAL MOMENT
SO I SAID SORRY
NO NO I SAID HI FIRST
I SAID HI - AND THEY SAID HI
AND THEN I SAID SORRY

I SAID SORRY AND SPRAYED IN THE AIR
I THOUGHT IF I'M STANDING THERE WITH THE SPRAY AND DON'T SPRAY
THAT'S MORE SHOCKING

SO I EXPLAINED THE SITUATION
I SPRAYED IN THE AIR A LETTER S - I FORGOT TO CROSS IT
A LETTER S  SSHH
AND CLOSED THE DOOR WITH THE LOCK INSIDE
THAT THEY HEAR IT THAT I'M SEPARATE
I DIDN'T WANT TO INSULT THEIR DREAMSCAPE
IT WAS NO INTENTION OF MINE

&

I'M TRYING TO BE THE MOST ORDINARY
FIGHTING FOR MY ESPRESSO COFFEES
BUYING MY CIGARETTE
SOMETIMES I CANNOT AND THEN BEGGING FOR IT
AND THAT'S ABOUT MY LIFE AS THE WORD OF OSH

THAT IS  MY LIFE AS THE WORD OF OSH
AND YOU CAN CALL IT FAILURE  YOU CAN CALL IT CURSE
YOU CAN CALL IT MADNESS  YOU CAN CALL IT WISDOM
BUT THE SITUATION SPEAKS FOR ITSELF

ORDO EQUITUM SOLIS
ORDO EQUITUM SOLIS

&

IT'S A FRESCO  IT'S ONE OF MY FRESCOS
IT'S A FRESCO  ILLUSTRATION
I SKETCHED  I SKETCHED THE FIRST FRESCO OF 888
THE FIRST FRESCO OF 888 CALLED
888 AND HIS CHINESE NEIGHBOURS

WE HAVE TO PAINT IT IN THIS CHINESE STYLE
CHINESE SOCIALIST REALISM
PERSONAL  INTIMATE  PRIVATE  EXCLUSIVE
AS WE ARE

&

I'M JUST WASTING THE TIME
I'M JUST SPENDING MY LIFE
LIFE IS MONEY
AND WE ARE SPENDING IT
WE SPEND THE LIFE
WE PAY WITH IT
LIFE IS OUR REDEMPTION - WE PAY WITH LIFE

WHAT WE HAVE DONE - NO
NO NOT WHAT WE HAVE DONE
WE HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING
THIS IS NOT A PUNISHMENT

&

WE ARE NOT SLAVES, NO
WE ARE NOT ANIMALS AND WE ARE NOT DEVILS
THESE ARE THE THREE ELEMENTS THE HUMAN IS NOT

WE ARE NOT FALLEN FROM A HIGHER PLANE
AND WE HAVE NOT EVOLVED FROM THE MONKEY
THESE THREE THINGS WE ARE NOT
THREE THINGS WE ARE NOT

WANT TO FIGURE WHAT WE ARE  FROM THE THREE NEGATIONS
NOT ANIMAL  NOT SLAVE  AND NOT DEVIL
WE ARE NOT DEVIL

NO DEVIL NO ANIMAL NO SLAVE
NO DEVIL NO ANIMAL NO SLAVE
NO DEVIL NO ANIMAL NO SLAVE

REMIND THESE THREE THINGS WHAT WE ARE NOT
AND THEN FIGURE OUT WHO WE ARE
BECAUSE IT'S UP TO US TO KNOW
THERE IS NO MORE REVELATION ABOUT IT COMING

WE ARE WHAT WE WANNA BE AT THIS POINT IN TIME

OSH - RA - TA

&

THAT'S THE SAGA  THAT'S THE SAGA OF CHARLOTTE
SHE WOULD HAVE LIKED TO - BUT HE ONLY HAD TO
HE WAS THE DUTY  SHE WAS THE JOY

HARMONY IS THERE WHERE ORDER MEETS PLEASURE
HARMONY IS THERE THERE  WHERE ORDER MEETS PLEASURE

AND WE COULDN'T DO IT
WE JUST COULDN'T DO IT
BECAUSE HE WAS STRONGER  HE WAS SO MUCH STRONGER
HIS SENSE OF DUTY OPPRESSED EVERY PLEASURE

WHAT AN AWFUL SAGA
WHAT AN AWFUL SAGA YOU TELL

BUT NOT THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO TELL
BUT THE ANECDOTE
