Ultimate




Lyrics:


If we are here not to do
What you and I wanna do
And go forever crazy with it
Why the hell are we even here?

[chorus]
There was never any good old days
They are today, they are tomorrow
It's a stupid thing we say
Cursing tomorrow with sorrow

When we stand here in a row
Looking like a bunch of heroes
I know that-a deep inside
Nothing more but bunch of zeros

Skolko utetchki tepla
Vot takaja vot subda
Nam segodnja suzdena
A bti mezget chto kogda da-j povezet!

[chorus]

Steppin' on the trail of Ultimate
I would never choose to die
So give me the rest of all the secrets
Give me new culture of life

Ultimate!
Ultimate!
Ultimate!
Ultimate! 












American wedding




Lyrics:


Have you ever been to American wedding?
Where is the vodka, where's marinated herring?
Where is the supply that gonna last three days?
Where is the band that like Fanfare.
Gonna keep it goin' 24 hours

Ta-tar-ranta-ta-ta
Super taran-ta taran-ta ran-ta ta

Instead it's one in the mornin'
and DJ is patchin' up the cords
Everybody's full of cake
Staring at the floor
Proper couples start to wonder
That it's time to do
People gotta get up early
Yep, they gotta go
People gotta get up early
And she'd gotta boyfriend
And this whole fucking thing
Is just a one huge disappointment

Ta-tar-ran-ta

Nothing gets these people going
not even Gypsy Kings
nobody talks about my Supertheory
of Supereverythings!
SO be you Donald Trump
Or be an anarchist
Make sure that your wedding
Doesn't end up like this

I understand the cultures
Of a different kind
But here word celebration
Just doesn't come to mind

Forces of Victory




Lyrics:


My dear good friend
Let's not forget
That we can take down Pinotchet
Against us any gang of four
Will be on the floor

When I was younger I thought
Someday that we will win
And in another country
I will find my twin
Spread good music and good poetry
Joining forces of the victory

Down in the hallways of unknown
Where we walk alone
Inside of hospitals and morgue
Clinical loneliness backs off...
If you'll remember those before
and the ones that yet to come
then above suffer of it all
Triumphs the union of souls
With only one thing on its mind
I can't go on, I will go on!
With only one thing on it's mind
I can't go on I will go on
I can't go on I will go on...


You gave up




Lyrics:


...
You gave up
and said well that's life
you gave up
and said that's life
but the somthing something something
and the something knows the rest
you gave up and said well that's life
but no no no no no,
my friend that's death
...










Troubled friends




Lyrics:


We're replacing the groom
With a Mexican head honcho

Troubled friends
Troubled friend

Kumbija

What do you do and what if it's true
When your best friend confesses to you
That he has become something of a dealer

What do you do and what if it's true
When your best friend confesses to you
That he has become a serial killer

What do you do, do you do
With all your troubled friends
Hide them from the cops?
[inaudible lyrics/Ukrainian/Gypsy]
What do you do, do you do
With all... troubled friends

Troubled friend
Troubled friend

What do you do, and what if it's true
When your best friend confesses to you
That he has become a serial killer

What do you do, and what if it's true
When your best friend confesses to you
That he has become a car dealer

What do you do, do you do
With all your troubled friends
Hide them from the cops
[inaudible lyrics/Ukrainian/Gypsy]
What do you do, do you do
With all, troubled friends

Troubled friend
Troubled friend

Kumbija

[inaudible lyrics/Ukrainian/Gypsy]

What do you do, do you do
With all your troubled friends
Hide them from the cops
[inaudible lyrics/Ukrainian/Gypsy]
What do you do, do you do
With all, troubled friends

Oh No


lyrics:

Sometimes when facing common trouble
When whole town is screwed
We become actually human
Act like Prometheus would
Suddenly there is more humor
And a party tabor style
People ringing one another
"Yo man, how was your blackout?"
Suddenly there is more music
Made with the buckets in the park
Girls are dancing with the flashlights
I got only one guitar!
And you see brothers and sisters
All engaged in sport of help
Making merry out of nothing
Like in refugee camp


Oh yeah Oh no, it doesn't have to be so
It is possible any time anywhere
Even without any dough
Oh yeah Oh no, it doesn't have to be so
Forces of the creative mind are unstoppable!

And you think, All right, now people
They have finally woked up
But as soon as the trouble over
Watch them take another nap
Nobody is making merry
Only trotting scared of boss
Everybody's making hurry
For some old forgotten cause
But one thing is surely eternal
It's condition of a man
Who don't know where he is going
Who don't know where does he stand
Who's dream power is corked bottle
Put away in dry dark place
Who's youth power is well buried
Under propaganda waves
Who's dream life is in opposition
With the life he leads today
Who's beaten down in believing
It just kinda goes this way!
Oh no, it doesn't have to be so
Forces of the creative mind are unstoppable!

last one goes the hope


Lyrics:

Unvisible barbed wire all along
Around the neck of my song
Hey Romale, I'm beat up
But going strong

Unstoppable fire of my tongue
And the path ahead that's long
Will get me at the end where I belong

Cause I've seen ship of fools
Sinking in the dunes
As I dragged my coffin on the rope
Them all look down at me
But I got all the help I need
Cause the last one, last one goes the hope
Last one, last one goes the hope

Unseizable diamond from my sling
Still is searching for its ring
In a city of ruins where no-one sings
But zombies and willful slaves
Living in their tiny private caves
Crooked hands, digging up their graves

Yeah I've seen ship of fools
Sinking in the dunes
As I dragged my coffin on the rope
Them all look down at me
But I got all the help I need
Cause the last one, last one goes the hope
Last one, last one goes the hope

Dee dee dee...
Last one, last one goes the hope
Last one, last one goes the hope

He romale, no passarán
Hey chavale, non rien de rien
You see the thunderbird already starts to spin
He romale, no passarán
He chavale, non rien de rien
Hey, venceremos,
Все равно мы победим!

Cause I've seen ship of fools
Sinking in the dunes
As I dragged my coffin on the rope
Them all look down at me
But I got all the help I need
Cause the last one, last one goes the hope
Ooh, last one, last one goes the hope
Ooh, last one, last one goes the hope
Ooh, last one, last one goes the hope

Dee dee dee...
Ai ai ai...
Last one, last one goes the hope (ai goes the hope!)
Last one, last one goes the hope
Last one, last one goes the hope (ai goes the hope!)
Ooh, last one, last one goes the hope

In The Meantime in Pernambuco


Lyrics:

Sometime when you have to take the hardest way
That don't mean that your star is leading you astray
Forget fashion symposium
You'll get panoramic!
All I gotta say, my friend, stay aerodynamic!
All I gotta say, my friend, stay aerodynamic!

Oh, my spirit guides, lurking in the window
Never did I fit the frame invented by the gringo
Oh, my spirit guides, store up on provisions
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!

Cause in the meantime in Pernambuco
Cachaça льётся
Yeah, Cachaça a-clandestina
Yeah, Cachaça da cigana

Da da da...
Russo Frevo!
Da da da...
Cachaça da cigana

Once we're there, the locals ask
"Amigo, who sent you?"
Paranoia, violence is always on the menu
But once the hospitality will dissolve the fear
Nothing but good kind of trouble
There is left to stir

Whoa my spirit guide, lurking in the window
Never did I fit the frame invented by the gringo
Oh, my spirit guide, store up on provisions
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!
Oh, expect nothing more or less but critical condition!

Cause in the meantime in Pernambuco
Cachaça льётся
Yeah, Cachaça a-clandestina
Yeah, Cachaça da cigana

Frevo, Frevo, Frevo, Frevo
Frevo, Frevo, Frevo, Frevo
Russo Frevo

Cachaça da cigana!

Raise the Knowledge

Raise the Knowledge

Lyrics:

Revolution is internal
Help yourself at any time
Evolution isn't over
No no no no, no no no no
We are about to use our mind
Yeah

Yeah to learn the language
Poets and rebels craved
To take off the tower
That taught them of the braved

Revolution is internal
Evolution isn't over, isn't over
I'm walking in the balance
I'm ready, ready to uncover

Evolution is preparing
all of us maximum surprise
So rise, whoa, the knowledge
Rise the knowledge rise
Rise the knowledge rise

Purification fire's coming
??? full stretch
The battle is a panic
Yeahahahah, hahahah hey!

And it's a pleasure to foresee
How the spirit wants the loving

Evolution isn't over, isn't over
I'm walking in the balance

Evolution is preparing
all of us maximum surprise
So rise, whoa, the knowledge
Rise the knowledge rise
Rise the knowledge rise

Purification fire
Purification fire
Purification fire
Purification fire

When Universes Collide

My companjera


Lyrics:

We stepped together in the river
We traded fever on turmoil
Last time I saw you was in the middle
I wonder if you hit the soil

Where are you now my companjera?
Your baby claw stuck in my chest
Where are you now my sonidera?
Who took you from the nest?
Where are you now my companjera?
I'm beating bricks from town to town
Where are you know my sonidera?
I'm at my final down
Down
My final down

Like through the muzzle came my surrender
I had to tear it off my mind
Them hypothermia took over
And suddenly I went blind

Where are you now my companjera?
Your baby claw stuck in my chest
Where are you now my sonidera?
Who took you from the nest?
Where are you now my companjera?
I'm beating bricks from town to town
Where are you know my sonidera?
I'm at my final down
My final down
My final down

Eat and sleep without desire
Would you like window or aisle?
Oh, miss sky, you ever seen
Warrior that's more fragile
Jetlag, hangover, malnutrition
You can't fly in this condition
And if no one intervenes
Out of the window is my mission

Where are you now my companjera?
Your baby claw stuck in my chest
Where are you now my sonidera?
Who took you from the nest?
Where are you now my companjera?
I'm beating bricks from town to town
Where are you know my sonidera?
I'm at my final down. Daaaaa
My final down
My final down
My final down

Pala Tute


Lyrics:

Caravan is comin'
All guitars are strummin'
Chief is sitting high
With gold across the chest
I'm just a little chavo
I don't even own a guitar
But mama they got girl
That I love the best

Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
Jas kana meres
Merava pala late
Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
Aaaaaaaaaaaaa hey

Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
Jas kana meres
Merava pala late
Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
Jas kana meres
Merava pala late

Carnival is comin'
All guitars are strummin'
And says old hitano
Boy, forget about the bling
Here is a guitarra
For you little chavo
If you slave to kissing
You gotta play this thing

Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
Jas kana meres
Merava pala late
Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
Jas kana meres
Merava pala late

Caravan is leavin'
And her breast is heaving
Lord this kind of love
Can not be untrue
I'm a little chavo
But I learned one thing
Girls they like the kissing
As much as we do

Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
I'm dying dying
Dying after you
Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
Girls they like the kissing
As much as we do

Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
Jas kana meres
Merava pala late
Lela lela lela
Lela pala tute
Jas kana meres
Merava pala late

Immigrada





Lyrics:

Immigrada immigraniada
Immigrada immigraniada-da
Immigrada immigraniada
We're coming rougher every time

We're coming rougher
We're coming rougher
We're coming rougher every time

Immigrada immigraniada
Immigrada immigraniada-da
Immigrada immigraniada
We're coming rougher every time

In corridors full of tear gas
Our destinies jammed every day
Like deleted scenes from Kafka
Flushed down the bureaucratic drain

But if you give me the invitation
To hear the bells of freedom chime
To hell with your double standards
We're coming rougher every time

We're coming rougher
We're coming rougher
We're coming rougher every time

Immigrada immigraniada
Immigrada immigraniada-da
Immigrada immigraniada
We're coming rougher every time

All those who made it and quickly jaded
To them we got nothing to say
Our immigrada, immigraniada
For them it's Don Quixote's kind of way
But if you give me the invitation
To hear the bells of freedom chime
To hell with your double standards
We're coming rougher every time
We're coming rougher
We're coming rougher
We're coming rougher every time
We're coming rougher every time

Immigrada immigraniada
Immigrada immigraniada-da
Immigrada immigraniada
We're coming rougher every time

Frozen eyes, sweaty back
My family's sleeping on a railroad track
All my life I pack/unpack
But man I got to earn this buck
I gotta pay representation
To be accepted in a nation
Where after efforts of a hero
Welcome start again from zero

It's a book of our true stories
True stories that can't be denied
It's more than true it actually happened
It's more than true it actually happened
It's more than true it actually happened
We're coming rougher every time
Rougher every time
We're coming rougher every time
Immigrada immigraniada
Immigrada immigraniada-da
Immigrada immigraniada
We're coming rougher every time
Immigrada immigraniada
Immigrada immigraniada-da hey hey
We're coming rougher every time

Super Taranta


Lyrics:

Second time I read the bible
I was thinking it's alright
When i was thinking aydadayda(?)
I v dushe vse na gitarkah
Ayy yay shadows of forbidden ancestors?
Come with me
To the future now!!

Your country


Lyrics:

Your country raised you
your country fed you
And just like any other country
It will break you
On front line send you
Tax the hell out of you
And just like any other country
It will lock you up you!

But unfortunately there'll be no judgement day
It would be kind of fun to see
What they would have to say
When the god they preached
Would actually be there
And all who didn't like The Stooges
Would go to fucking hell!

What are all these countries
How did they appear?
Who cut up the cake?
Who brought up all this gear?
Did it have to do anything
With its people's will?
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know my dear...

But even all the garbage
they pour over our eyes
Does not prevent us from living
Most magical of lifes

Now it's six in the morning
I'm down in New Orleans
Sister paintings on the wall
They will speak to me
And up later on we resume salutations
to the rest of local Tribal Connections

Alcohol


Lyrics;

Yeah o yeah you seen me walk
On burning bridges
Yeah o yeah you seen me fall
In love with witches
And you know my brain is held
Inside by stitches
Yet you know I did survive
All of your lovely sieges

And you know that I'll pick up
Every time you call
Just to thank you one more time
Alcohol
And you know that I'll survive
Every time you come
Just to thank you one more time
For everything you've done

Alcohol
Alcohol

And I'm sorry some of us
Given you bad name
yeah o yeah, cause without you
Nothing is the same
Yeah o yeah i miss you so
Every time we break up
Just to hit a higher note
Every time we make up

Who's crawlin' up my spine - alcohol
I've been waiting long long time - alcohol
Now you teach me how to rhyme - alcohol
Just don't stab me in the back with cartisol

Now we reunite - alcohol
And forever be divine - alcohol
Screw a light bulb in my head - alcohol
may that ceremony be happy or sad...

Supertheory of Supereverything


Songwriters: Ferguson, Eliot / Hutz, Eugene / Kaplan, Oren / Lemeshev, Yuri / Ryabstev, Sergey / Gobena, Thomas

Lyrics:

First time I had read the Bible
It had stroke me as unwitty
I think it may started rumor
That the Lord ain't got no humor

Put me inside SSC
Let's test superstring theory
Oh yoi yoi accelerate the protons
stir it twice and then just add me, 'cause

I don't read the Bible
I don't trust disciple
Even if they're made of marble
Or Canal Street bling

From the maelstrom of the knowledge
Into the labyrinth of doubt
Frozed underground ocean
melting - nuking on my mind

Yes give me Everything Theory
Without Nazi uniformity
My brothers are protons
My sisters are neurons
Stir it twice, it's instant family!

I don't read the Bible
I don't trust disciple
Even if they're made of marble
Or Canal Street bling

My brothers are protons
My sisters are neurons
Stir it twice dlja prekrastnih dam...

Do you have sex maniacs
Or schizophrenics
Or astrophysicists in your family
Was my grandma anti anti
Was my grandpa bounty bounty
Hek-o-hek-o-hej-o
They ask me in embassy!

'Cause I don't read the Bible
I don't trust disciple
Even if they're made of marble
Or Canal Street bling

And my grandma she was anti!
And my grandpa he was bounty!
And stir it twice
And then just add me!
Partypartypartypartypartyparty
now afterparty...


Sun is my on side


Lyrics:

What was here now is gone
Up and down like everyone
Walk the earth in lonesome cry
But when the sun comes up
When the sun comes up
It will be on your side
It will be on your side

To the song of wheels
All demons die
Rays of joy they multiply
Harmony you will be my bride
But when the sun comes up
I'll let out last breath
And slumber softly
Into the death

My half breed odyssey
Your orphan prophecy
Our destiny we will not hide
When the sun comes up
When the sun comes up
It will be on your side
It will be on our side

When the sun comes up
I'll let out last breath
And I'll slumber softly
Into the death
