"AS THE MEN GO MARCHING BY
YOU CAN HEAR THEM AS THEY ANSWER TO THAT ROLL CALL IN THE SKY
COLONEL TRAVIS, DAVY CROCKETT AND A HUNDRED EIGHTY MORE"
"STOOD TOGETHER HEEL AND TOE TO DEFEND THE ALAMO
YOU MAY NEVER SEE YOUR LOVED ONES, TRAVIS TOLD THEM THAT DAY"

THIS MUST BE JOHNNY HORTON

WORKSHIPS ARE THERE TO PURIFY
IT'S AN OBLIGATION
WORKSHIP IS PURIFICATION EXERCISE
IT'S LABOUR  BECAUSE IT'S A DUTY

JOY BECOMES LABOUR WHEN IT BECOMES A DUTY
AND IT'S THE HARDEST DUTY OF ALL
AS I CAN TESTIFY
MAYBE I'M WRONG AND IT'S JUST MY PROBLEM

I IDENTIFY MYSELF WITH EVERYTHING
PROBABLY I'M ALONE

&

WORKSHIP IS PARTLY LABOUR, PARTLY CONFESSION
IT REPLACES CONFESSIONS
THERE IS NO ONE TO CONFESS BUT TO YOURSELF

I'M ALTOGETHER WRONG
BUT ACCORDINGLY I AM VERY CORRECTLY ACTING
THE REST IS NOT MY PROBLEM
I'M NOT GOING TO SUFFER FOR MY FAULTS
THE FAULTS AREN'T MINE

YOU HAVE TO GO TO WAR AGAINST THE MAKER ITSELF
AGAINST THE COSMIC BARGAIN
AND SEPARATE YOURSELF FROM YOUR FAULTS
FROM YOUR FAULTS - THEY AREN'T YOURS

FAULTS AREN'T YOURS

&

FAULTS I'M TALKING ABOUT - CRIMINAL IS UNTOUCHABLE
WE DON'T DEAL WITH IT AT ALL  AT ALL
WE DON'T HAVE THE TIME FOR IT
WE START ON THE MINIMAL LEVEL
BUT DON'T CARE WHAT IS BELOW IT
THERE IS A SUBLEVEL

YOU GOT TO RISE  FROM LEVEL TO LEVEL
WE HAVE TO RISE ABOVE IT

I FEEL LIKE AN INVERTED PYRAMID OF FAULTS
IT'S VERY POETIC  VERY WELL
OH  GOOD JEW  GOOD JEW
AAAAAOO

&

IT'S CHAIN - I AM CHAINED
I'M CHAINED
MEA CULPA  MEA CULPA  ALRIGHT
MEA CULPA  MEA CULPA
MAXIMA CULPA
BUT I DON'T HAVE TO ASK FORGIVENESS
DON'T HAVE TO ASK FOR IT
I DESERVE IT

I CAN SEE IT FROM ABOVE
I SEE ME AND MY FAULTS  SEPARATED
AND THEN THERE IS A THIRD ENTITY
THEY FORM A TRINITY
ME, MY SPIRIT AND MY FAULTS

BECAUSE I BRING WRONG DECISIONS
I BRING DECISIONS - AND THEY ARE ALL WRONG
CAN YOU BELIEVE IT
I'M SO ANTITHETIC

&

SIN IS THE ONLY CURE FOR FAULTS
SIN SEPARATES THEM FROM YOU
YOU HAVE TO LIVE A SINFUL LIFE
TO GET RID OF YOUR FAULTS

IT'S LUCIFER'S NEW DEAL  A-HAA
WHAT YOU SAY

I CAN'T SIN  I CAN'T SIN
I CAN'T SIN  I CAN'T SIN
THAT'S MY PROBLEM
HAVE YOU MET AN IMPOTENT BEAST BEFORE

OSH  RA  TA

&

SINCE AGES I'M BEGGING YOU
I DON'T STAND A SINGLE TEST
NIGHTMARE I'M LIVING IN
HOW YOU EXPECT ME TO BEHAVE REALISTICALLY IN IT

I REMEMBER THE TIME 
WHEN WE WERE THE TRAVELING COLLEGE OF TIME CONSCIOUSNESS
THE HOPE  THE HOPE
THE HOPE WE LOST

THE HOPE WE LOST
BUT IT'S NOT OUR FAULT
WE LOST IT BUT IT'S NOT OUR FAULT

WHAT IS WHAT
WHAT IS NOT
WHERE IS WHO

&

THE LIGHT WASN'T ON  DOESN'T MATTER
LIGHT OR UNLIGHT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE TO ME
AND WHY DOES IT MAKE NO DIFFERENCE TO ME

DRACULA HAS POSED YOU A QUESTION
DON'T EVEN REMEMBER WHAT YOU WERE SAYING A SECOND AGO
YOUR OBLIVION IS INSTANT
THE INSTANT OBLIVION
STATE OF A MEDIUM, RIGHT

(GIBBERISH) 

YOU SEE WHAT GHOSTS ARE COMING IN
THESE GHOSTS ARE COMING IN TO DISTURB ME
GHOSTS LIKE THIS ARE COMING IN
BUT I'M NOT SCARED  I IGNORE THEM

AND THEN FROM THE VIDEO TAPE
I JUST CUT THEM OUT
NO GHOSTS ON THE VIDEO AND THAT'S IT

LIKE REALITY TELEVISION YES
EVERY SHIT YOU CUT OUT
GHOSTS WE CUT OUT  DEMONS WE CUT OUT

DO YOU SEE THE JEW - DON'T WORRY
THE JEW IS ANOTHER THING I ALWAYS WILL CUT OUT
FROM NOW ON THE JEW IS CUT OUT  BANNED
THE JEW IS BANNED
AND SO ARE ALL THE DEMONS AND GHOSTS

DEVIL DEVIL WITCH WITCH  AAAA
THE LIGHT DOESN'T WANT TO COME BACK  HEEY-HEY

&

I'M STANDING HERE BEFORE YOU
ONE-TWO-THREE-FOUR-FIVE
ONE-TWO-THREE-FOUR-FIVE
ONE-TWO-THREE-FOUR-FIVE
I'M STANDING HERE BEFORE YOU
ONE-TWO-THREE-FOUR-FIVE
ONE-TWO-THREE-FOUR-FIVE  TARA-RA-RI-RAM
IT'S A SONG TO THE BARGAIN
JUST LET ME FINISH IT

&

THE MAGIC YOU HAVE TO FIND THAT KEEPS YOUR EYES OPEN
AND THAT'S IN THE HANDS
AND IT'S THE HOLDING OF THE HAND
THAT KEEPS YOU AWAKE
NOTHING ELSE - AND IT'S ALSO SECRET
NOBODY HAS TO SEE IT - YOU DO IT IN YOUR POCKET

AS YOU CROSS YOUR FINGERS
THESE ARE JUST SOPHISTICATED VERSIONS OF THAT
CAN CROSS YOUR FINGER  ITS ENOUGH
BUT BE CAREFUL HOW YOU HOLD THE OTHERS

CROSS YOUR FINGER IS ACTUALLY THE OPPOSITE TO THE VICTORY SIGN
YOU SHOW IT THE SAME WAY AS THE VICTORY SIGN
JUST CROSS YOUR FINGERS
OTHER TWO FINGERS ARE HELD DOWN
COURTESY OF THE THUMB

THEN YOU FORM ANYTHING
THEN YOU FORM FORMATIONS 
BUT THOSE ARE THE ORNAMENTICS
THIS IS GESTURE YET

&

BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHOW THIS
IT'S NOT SOMETHING TO SHOW - IT'S SOMETHING TO HIDE
WHEN YOU CROSS YOUR FINGERS YOU HIDE IT
YOU DON'T WALK WITH CROSSED FINGERS

YOU CAN BUT EVERYONE SEES THAT YOU'RE MAD  MAD
IF YOU CROSS YOUR FINGERS YOU'RE MAD
IF YOU DO A FINGER GESTURE YOU'RE MAD
YOU MAY NOT DO FINGER GESTURES IN PUBLIC
EVEN HOW YOU HOLD YOUR FINGERS IS PRONE TO SUSPICION

HANDS ARE JUST LOOSE - FINGERS HANGING
IF YOU WALK WITH A FIST  HAND IN A FIST
PEOPLE WILL BE AFRAID

SO IT'S VERY IMPORTANT HOW YOU HOLD YOUR HANDS
PRIVATE  THE NAKED HANDS PRIVATE
BEST TO PUT IT IN THE POCKET
THE HANDS LIKE TO BE HIDDEN
THAT'S A TENDENCY OF THE HANDS TO BE HIDDEN
EVERYBODY  EVERYBODY
HIDDEN HANDS STANDS FOR EVERYONE
IT'S A GOOD NAME

&

THIS IS MY ANTEROOM  WITH A MIRROR
THAT'S THE MIRROR WHERE I USED TO PRACTICE

THE LIGHT THE LIGHT THE LIGHT  THE LIGHT
WITHIN THE LAMP THERE IS AN EVIL RESONATION
THAT FINALLY STOPS ITSELF, RIGHT
THERE IS AN EVIL RESONATION THAT FINALLY STOPS ITSELF
I SEE - THAT'S A GOOD ONE
AN EVIL RESONATION THAT ANNIHILATES ITSELF
THAT'S WHAT WE CALL DEMONIC

"NEW LIFE'S AWAITING YOU THERE
SLAVE TO SOME WRETCHED OLD 
IMAGINATION OF YESTERYEAR"

FUCK YOU

IT'S THE NEWEST SATYRICON 
IT WAS FANTASTIC
IT WAS ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC

&

IT'S A VERSION OF THE SALUTE

I WANT A BACKBONE
I DON'T HAVE A BACKBONE
MY BACKBONE IS PLASTIC
EVERYTHING IS PLASTIC IN ME - I'M ALL PLASTIC
DON'T HAVE TO IDENTIFY IT 
I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT  I KNOW
I'M BLEEDING  BLEEDING ALRIGHT
SEE MYSELF IN THE MIRROR VERY FUCKING WELL

BUT I'M ALL PLASTIC
MY SOUL IS PLASTIC
AND THE BRAINS PROBABLY  THE BRAINS
I DON'T HAVE A PLASTIC MIND
MY MIND THEY COULD NOT PLASTICIZE

&

MY MIND THEY COULD NOT PLASTICIZE
IT'S SWEET ISN'T IT
YOU LIKE THIS JEW
MY MIND THEY COULD NOT PLASTICIZE

NOW DECIDE WHICH WAY TO GO
YOU DON'T KNOW JEW, RIGHT
YOU DON'T KNOW

GO GO AHEAD  STRAIGHT
YOU MAY TAKE THE HIGHWAY  JUST GO
JEW, GO TO HELL

BUT THEY WILL MISUNDERSTAND THIS
AND THEY'LL BELIEVE GENOCIDAL  NOT SUICIDAL

I'M A SUICIDE ARTIST
SUICIDE  THIS IS SUICIDE
DEATH NOTE  OOH BABY BABY 
SORRY SORRY SORRY
I AM SORRY
BUT THIS IS JUST A DEATH NOTE
DEATH NOTE

MEANING IS DEFUNCT
THESE VIDEOS HAVE NONE

&

EXPRESS YOURSELF FINALLY
CHARLOTTE  NOW TELL THEM
ABOUT THE DUTY OF BEAUTY
THE BEAUTY OF DUTY
THE DUTY OF BEAUTY
THE BEAUTY OF DUTY
THE DUTY OF BEAUTY
AND SO ON
