BETWEEN YOUR CURLED WORDS
I FALL INTO HAZINESS
ON OUR WAY, OFF TO ST. PETE
I ONLY GOT SILENCE
AND STOLICHNAJA
HOW COULD YOU TRUST A GUY LIKE ME?
I FOUND SOMETHING IN BETWEEN
SIGNING AND RESIGNING:
THE BLISS OF IMPONDERABILITY
ARE WE STRANDED?
SEXUALLY BEFRIENDED?
ANYTHING FLOATS ON THE WAY TO PETE
(MUMBLING:
ABOUT POETRY SAID PETE’S WILDEST SON:
YOU GOT TO MAKE SURE IT’LL SMASH THE GLASS!

Kid Went Awry
03:33

|
YOUVE BEEN TOO LONG WITH THE HOLLOW MEN PATTING EACH OTHERS BACKS
SEE THEIR AWESTRUCK EYES WHEN “THE DUCHESS” CUTS HER WAY THROUGH CAPS AND PIN STRIPES!
SHE’S COMING TO YOU, POINTING AT YOU
AND SAYS I REMEMBER YOU -
YOU WERE THE GIFTED KID
TILL YOU WENT AWRY!
AMAN! THE PIN STRIPES ROTATE AND A RABBIT SERVES SOMETHING
TO CHEW ON
YOU ELBOW YOUR WAY THROUGH THE FOREST OF FOOLS TO WHERE NOTHING MATTERS BUT DARK MATTER
AN EX A & R AND THE PR CZAR
ARE SEARCHING FOR YOU! IT’S FAR OVER, FAR FROM OVER
BUT KID WENT AWRY

Love the Way She Stands

I LOVE THE WAY SHE STANDS
AT THE SHRINK'S BIRTHDAY DANCE
EVERYBODY KNOWS
THAT BEARD HAD CLAMPED BETWEEN HER THIGHS
I LOVE THE WAY YOU STAND
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RESEARCH FIELD
SHE IS QUITE A CASE HE SAYS
TALKING DOESN’T HELP
BUT EVERYBODY LEAVES
BEFORE THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
YES, EVERYBODY LEAVES
BEFORE THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
SHE LOVES THE WAY HE SHRINKS
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SUPERVISION.

YOU KNOW THAT THINGS ARE MEANINGLESS -
BUT THAT DOESNT MEAN A THING.
YOU KNOW THAT THINGS ARE MEANINGLESS -
BUT THAT DOESNT MEAN A THING.
IM WITH YOU IN SOLITUDE, NEVER, ALWAYS
SO DON’T CRY, DAUGHTERS, SONS, PLAY!
POWER? YOU ONLY SUBMIT TO YOURSELVES
MERCY? YOU HELP YOURSELVES!
POWER? YOU ONLY SUBMIT TO YOURSELVES
OMNISCIENCE? NO, I DO NOT KNOW
I’M WEAK, WEAKER, WEAKER, STRONG
I’M CLOSE, CLOSER, CLOSER, FAR

MADAME LE SOLEIL LEVANT JUST REMEMBERS THE FIRST LINES OF THIS SONG /
BUT SHE REMEMBERS ALL THE DINNERS WITH ALL THE WINNERS OF THE EU RECOVERY PLAN /
THE ONES I ALWAYS MISS. INSTEAD I COME HERE FOR CAVIAR AND TOUCHÉS.
MADAME LE SOLEIL LEVANT SAYS LOVE IS JUST COMPLEXLY CODED INTIMACY /
THEN WHAT? SHE REASSURINGLY KISSED ME, TELLING ME SHE'LL MISS ME AND NEVER FORGET /
AND I’VE JUST COME BY FOR THE CODE AND FOR YOU TO HELP ME TIE MY TIE.
MARIANNE LE SOLEIL LEVANT SAYS SILENCE IS GOLDEN AND IT PAYS OFF /
BUT ONCE, JUST ONCE I CAUGHT HER, TELLING HER BABY DAUGHTER NOT TO DO WHAT SHE’S DONE /
‘CAUSE NOTHING LASTS FOREVER. NOTHING LASTS FOREVER - EXCEPT FUTURE.

The Artist Arrives
03:47
|

A TRUTH UNDANCEABLE
A JOKE INDIGESTABLE
AND WHY IS HE CONSTANTLY LOOKING AT YOU?
YOU CALL HIM OBSOLETE,
DIVISIVE OR INCONCRETE
THAT GUY WON’T MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE.
NA NA NA …
YOU WOULD CALL HIM CRITICAL,
PROGRESSIVE, ANALYTICAL
IF HE - AT LEAST THIS TIME - TOOK YOUR SIDE.
BUT HE JUST LOOKS AT YOU
JUST FUCKING STARES AT YOU
AND THEN TAKES THE NEXT PLANE
AND ABANDONS YOU IN PAIN.

HERE’S THE EXPLANATION:
IT’S ABOUT YOU AND OUR NATION
I DON’T LOVE US ANYMORE
I DON’T LOVE US ANYMORE
I PROMISED YOU SALVATION
I PROMISED NAVIGATION
NOW, AFTER CONTEMPLATION
I’M OFF, I’M OUT, I GOTTA, GOTTA GO
HERE’S AN EXPLANATION:
IT’S NOT ECONOMY, FACE IT!
IT’S THE HUMAN, STUPID!
IT’S THE HUMAN, STUPID!
I BLAMED THE INFLATION
I BLAMED THE MIGRATION
YOU KNOW, AFTER OUR SEPARATION
I SHED SOME BEAUTIFUL FAKE TEARS.
DON’T MAKE THIS A SENSATION
DON’T MAKE THIS A SENSATION
DON’T MAKE THIS A SENSATION
DON’T MAKE THIS A SENSATION
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE…

I SLEPT WITH MY HAIRDRESSER THE OTHER NIGHT
GOT CURLY HAIR AND STORMY WEATHER AND WENT OUTSIDE.
GOT STUCK IN A QUEUE BETWEEN A SALAFIST AND A TIN FOIL HAT
I'D FORM A BAND WITH THEM FOOLS IF IN RETURN I'D GET THE FLAT
I WAS A SAD PUNK WITH A BABY AND A GUITAR
WAITING FOR LENNON OR LENIN OR A NEW WAR
COMES A GUY WITH A HOUSE, SAYS: NO GAIN, NO LOSS!
I WILL KILL HIM - OR SIGN, AS HE SAYS, NEXT TO THE CROSS
HERE’S THE THING:
WOULD YOU SHARE THE HOUSE WITH ME, LOVE AND FEARS INCLUDED?
CALL ME BACK, CALL ME MEAN, TELL ME I WAS FUCKING WRONG AND DELUDED.
OH OH.. LETS FIX IT AND SCREW IT
OH OH.. FIX IT AND SCREW IT
(DO RE MI)
WOULD YOU SHARE THE HOUSE WITH ME, LOVE AND TEARS INCLUDED?
CALL ME BACK, CALL ME MEAN, TELL ME I WAS FUCKING WRONG AND DELUDED.
OH OH.. LETS FIX IT AND SCREW IT
OH OH.. FIX IT AND SCREW IT

THAT FUNNY MOMENT -
BEAUTY TOUCHED WEARYNESS
WHEN WE JUMPED OUT
A MEDIOCRE STORY
OUR PATH BRANCHED OUT
WE TOOK THE BAD ONE
I'D HAVE QUIT MY JOB IF I'D EVER HAD ONE
FROM CHRISTIANIA TO UZHUPIS
WE'VE BEEN ALWAYS SEARCHING FOR CURE
HOPE AND BOOZE, WILL IT SUFFICE?
TILL PANKOW DOWNTOWN? I'M NOT SURE.
FROM UTOPIA TO ATLANTIS
WE'VE BEEN ALWAYS SEARCHING FOR LURE -
APPARENTLY ERRANTLY.
HOW IT ENDED?
HOW IT ENDED?
I'M NOT SURE,
I’M NOT SURE

Oum Shatt Berlin, Germany
Building on the minimal-rock style of their debut album (Vogue Magazine), the critically acclaimed Berlin supergroup OUM SHATT weaves a mystic, at times psychedelic soundscape with meandering guitars, a wild percussive aesthetic, and Jonas Poppe’s evocative, mantra-like baritone. While drawing from obscure influences, the album Opt Out remains unmistakably unique (Christian Ihle, taz) ... more
