THE TURNING SALUTE
A GREAT INVENTION OF TODAY

&

DEPENDS ON YOU MY WILL
I DON'T HAVE AN OWN WILL, BABY 
BABY UNIVERSE
I DON'T HAVE AN OWN WILL

THAT'S AN EXTRA MOTION TO THE SALUTE WHAT YOU CAN INSERT
AFTER YOU SALUTE WITH THE STRAIGHT ARM AND STRAIGHT FINGERS
YOU MAKE AN EXTRA GESTURE BEFORE TURNING BACKWARDS
YOU SPREAD THE FINGERS

I SHOW IT VERTICALLY
YOU SPREAD THE FINGERS  FROM THIS TO THIS
AND THEN CLOSE THEM BACK
AND THEN GOES THE BACKWARD SALUTE

&

THE SLOPPY WATERFALL OF HARD ROCK
IF YOU CAN SEPARATE IT FROM THE HEAVY 
THE HARD ROCK FROM HEAVY METAL
HARD ROCK AND HEAVY METAL
HARD ROCK AND HEAVY METAL 

THIS IS HARD ROCK
AND HARD ROCK IS ON NEITHER SIDE 
OF THE ANDROGYNE LINE OF ROCK AND ROLL
BECAUSE ROCK AND ROLL'S MAIN LINE IS THE ANDROGYNE LINE OF IT
THAT WHAT DIFFERS IT FROM BOOGIE-VOOGIE

THIS IS THE THOROGOOD
THOROGOOD IS NOT HARD ROCK
GEORGE THOROGOOD AND  DESTROYERS

&

IN THE DANCE YOU CAN INCLUDE THE SALUTE ALL THE TIME
IT'S LIKE A PERMANENT COMMUNICATION  DON'T FORGET IT
AND IT MEANS SO MANY OTHER THINGS

ON A CROWDED DANCEFLOOR YOU MIGHT NOT DO IT
BECAUSE YOU HIT SOMEONE
BUT THIS YOU CAN ALWAYS DO

&

THOROGOOD IS CLOSER TO THE ANDROGYNE LINE
BUT HARD ROCKERS GENERALLY ARE VERY FAR FROM IT
THE FACT IS THAT THEY ARE MASCULINE
AS OPPOSED TO HAIR METAL LET'S SAY

HAIR METAL IS A NEW MASCULINITY BUT THAT'S ANOTHER TOPIC
IF YOU COMPARE IT TO HARD ROCK AND WHY SHOULD NOT YOU

HARD ROCK DOESN'T POSSESS THE ANDROGYNE LINE
THEREFORE IT IS NEITHER MASCULINE NOR FEMININE
YOU HAVE TO POSSESS THE ANDROGYNE LINE TO BE EITHER OF IT
WITHOUT ANDROGYNY THERE IS NO SEX

&

THIS IS THIS BETTER ONE
BETTER HEAVY METAL BAND  TESLA
NAMED AFTER THE MAN - NOT JUST THE DEVICE
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC NAME - MAGIC NAME

NAMES ARE KIND OF MAGICS YOU KNOW
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO CHOOSE THEM  MOST OF US
BECAUSE IT HAS TO BE MAGIC

NOMEN EST OMEN UUUAA
NOMEN EST OMEN UUA-UUA
NOMEN EST OMEN

&

THE OBJECT OF WORSHIP IS THE SAME ONE THING
YOU NAME IT DIFFERENT WAYS  IMAGINE IT DIFFERENT WAYS
BUT IT'S  THE VERY VERY BLOODY SAME THING
IT'S ONLY YOUR INDIVIDUAL IMAGINATIONS 
THAT MAKES IT SO DIFFERENT

I AM TO CONTENT TO SPEAK LIKE A COMPLETE VIRGIN
LIKE A VIRGIN - I HAVE TO SPEAK LIKE A VIRGIN

RITUAL AND WORK IS ONE AND THE SAME THING
IN THE ATHEIST CHURCH THERE IS NO RITUAL
THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT ATHEIST
WE DON'T BUILD TEMPLES

THE TEMPLE IS YOU-HU-HU-HUU
THE TEMPLE IS YOU-HU  YOU-HU HUU

WE DON'T BUILD STONE OR GLASS  AND STEEL TEMPLES EITHER
NO TEMPLES AT ALL
RITUAL IS PERMANENT

&

I WILL DO THIS GESTURE
TO CONGRATULATE MYSELF FOR A GOOD STATEMENT

TO INCREASE THE EFFECT OF IT
WORKSHIP HAS TO BE PERMANENT

AGE  WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE AGING PROCESS
THAT'S WHAT INTERESTS US
THE AGING PROCESS INTERESTS US THE MOST, NO
BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT WE ARE DOING
BASICALLY WHAT WE ARE DOING IS AGING
THAT'S OUR OCCUPATION

WORKING WORKING WORKING
PRAYING PRAYING PRAYING  IN THE MEANTIME

&

OSSSSHH
IT'S SIGNIFICANT TO KNOW
THAT YOU CAN DO THE BREATHING IN ANY POSTURE
YOU DON'T ALWAYS HAVE TO BE STRAIGHT STANDING FAST
OR SHOWING THE SALUTE TO IT
IT'S A VERSION
YOU CAN DO THE OSHIST BREATHING IN ANY POSTURE
BUT YOU HAVE TO KEEP THE BODY CONSCIOUSNESS
THE BODY ADEPTS ITSELF TO IT

&

ALMOST NOTHING WORKS
WHAT WORKS IS WORKING INCORRECTLY
BUT VERY FEW THINGS WORK CORRECTLY
AND ONE OF THEM IS THE NAME
THE NAME-GIVING, NAME-BEARING SYSTEM
IT'S A CODE SYSTEM WHAT THEY WORKED OUT
TO NUMBER US WELL - AND THAT WORKS
BECAUSE IT IS  FIRST OF ALL  IT'S PREDICTIVE
AND SECONDLY IT'S ALSO RETROSPECTIVE

SO IF YOU NAME YOURSELF GOETHE'S ERBEN
YOU ONLY CAN DO THAT IF YOU ARE
YOU JUST CAN'T DO IT IF YOU ARE NOT
THE NAME YOU GIVE TO YOURSELF OR TO YOUR BAND
THE NAME A BAND TAKES ON
IS YOUR DESTINY
IT'S DESTINY BACKWARD, DESTINY FORWARD

EVERYBODY KNOWS IT
EVEN IF YOU DON'T THINK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE BUT THE BUSINESS IN IT
THE CELEBRITY - THEN YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING
THROWING RUNES IS NOT THAT RISKY AS TO CHOOSE A NAME
SIT DOWN AND COGITATE TOGETHER WHAT A NAME
WHAT NAME WE NAME THE BAND
AND THAT WILL BE YOUR DESTINY - YOUR BAND'S DESTINY

&

EVERYBODY IS VERY CAREFUL WITH IT
EVEN THE LEAST INTELLIGENT BANDS
THERE ARE LESS INTELLIGENT METAL BANDS FOR EXAMPLE
AND CERTAINLY INDUSTRIALS TOO
EVEN THEY KNOW IT PERFECTLY
THIS IS SOMETHING WE ALL KNOW PERFECTLY

&

ACTUALLY THIS RECORD IS CALLED NAMENLOS
COINCIDENTALLY I MENTION IT
CAN'T LEAVE IT OUT TO MENTION IT
BECAUSE I'M WORKING WITH AN ANSWERING MACHINERY
I'M USING THE MUSIC BACKGROUND TO GET FEEDBACK
WHEN I'M SPEAKING - WHEN I'M ABLE TO SPEAK SOMETHING OUT
THEN I GET A FEEDBACK  I NEED A FEEDBACK

THIS IS CALLED NAMENLOS THIS RECORD
YOU SEE HOW PRECISE MY FEEDBACK CAN BE
THIS IS ANTIMAGIC - IT HAS NO MAGIC INVOLVED IN IT
MAGIC IS INVOLVED IN CERTAIN RITUALS
I WORKSHIP WITHOUT RITUAL INTENT

&

THE RICH BOY  THE RICH BOY'S PLAYING
PAUL ANKA WAS FOR THE RICH BOY - VERY MIDDLE CLASS
EVERYONE IN EARLY ROCK AND ROLL
EXCEPT MAYBE THE BLACK MAJORITY OF IT
WERE MIDDLE CLASS - VERY MIDDLE

OOPS

&

WE ARE NOT AGAINST THE CITY WORSHIPS
WE ERADICATE BORDERS OF COUNTRIES
BUT CITY NOSTALGIA IS CHERISHED
ESPECIALLY NEW YORK  YOU UNDERSTAND
IT'S THE MODEL FOR IT  WHAT THE CITY CAN MEAN

JUST THE CRIME  THE CRIME SHOULD BE ELIMINATED
BUT YOU WILL SAY  WITHOUT CRIME
WHAT IS NEW YORK WITHOUT CRIME
AND YOU'RE KIND OF RIGHT WITH IT
SO I'M NOT VERY SURE WHAT I HAVE TO DO
OSH TELL ME WHAT I HAVE TO THINK ABOUT IT

&

HOLDING THIS LITTLE  WHAT ARE YOU
IT'S A DOG  IT'S A DOG  IT'S A DOG I'M HOLDING
TO PROTECT ME - THIS DOG PROTECTS ME
I AM SPIEL, THE OVERNATIONAL SOCIALIST PARTY
AND THIS DOG PROTECTS ME  WAU-WAU-WAU

I AM WALKING A TOY DOG
IMAGINE THIS WALKING DOG ROBOT
I WANT TO WALK A ROBOT DOG
I WANT TO WALK ON STAGE A ROBOT DOG WITH ME
MAKE ME A ROBOT DOG  HA - HA - HA
THAT ALSO CAN BARK

WAF - WUF - WEF - WÖF
WÜF - WIF  OOOO
WAF - WEF  WAF-WEF-WÜF
WIF-WAF-WEF  WIF-WIF-WIF
WIF-WIF-WIF  WAF - WOF
WAF-WOF-WEF  WAF - WOF  WAF - WEF
WAF-WAF-WAF  WEF-WEF-WEF

THIS IS THE SOLFEGGIO
WIF-WEF-WAF-WÖF
WIF - WEF - WAF - WÖF - WOF - WÜF
"SECHS HUNDE SAGEN ALLES" - THAT'S THE TITLE OF THE SOLFEGGIO
IT'S WIF-WEF-WUF - IT HAS HAND MOTIONS  EVERYTHING
EVERYTHING TO IT

&

ALWAYS CROSS YOURSELF WITH THE TOY
OR WITH ANY OBJECT YOU HAVE
YOU CAN CROSS YOURSELF WITH A GUN
YOU CAN CROSS YOURSELF  WHATEVER YOU WANT

BUT WITH A TOY IDEALLY
EVERY CHILD MUST BE TAUGHT
HOW TO CROSS THEMSELVES WITH THEIR TOYS
WE HAVE TO INTRODUCE IT AT A VERY EARLY AGE
IN THE ORPHANAGE OF THE UNIVERSAL REFUGEE
HOW TO CROSS THEMSELVES WITH THEIR TOYS

NO  YOU DON'T GO DOWN TO THE GROIN
YOU CAN GO DOWN TO THE GROIN - I DON'T MIND
IDEALLY FINISH IT AT THE NAVEL
IF YOU WANT TO GO DOWN TO THE GROIN WHY NOT
IF YOU PREFER IT

WHATEVER
