LYRICS
You call this art? Need a blood flowchart
The art of warfare is everywhere
I could sure start with a blood flowchart
Beware of the blood-flow over there
I wouldn’t want you to step in it
It’s worse than stepping in… worse than stepping in… stepping in $hit
The art of warfare is everywhere

A picture’s worth a thousands words
A million words can’t describe the toll of a sole soul
The art of warfare is everywhere
Ya know this ain’t Vincent Van Gogh
We make Picasso look less absurd

The risk to every art critic… you’re gonna get hit
There’s a fan… and, when the $hit gets to it… you’re gonna get hit
The art of warfare is everywhere

Die-a-gram for Over-cooked Turkey.mp3

LYRICS
May I say, happy holiday? Can you tell me, “How do you like your turkey?”
Our recipe for catastrophe:
Now, somehow Moscow resides on both sides
In France, they’re doing the (anti)terror dance
Invoking the Kremlin gremlin
The Kremlin gremlin provoking a turkey basting
Are you telling me I am the delicacy? Noooo… I don’t wanna be in the recipe!
Too many cooks in the kitchen… too many kooks in the kitchen
And, here I am sayin’, “I need a die-a-gram”

All the while up to their ears in Syria diarrhea
Some sick Islamic
Don’t ya think that’ll stink?
Leave it up to their fears in Syria diarrhea
You ISIS? I is not ISIS
No Boca Raton killing marathon
While Al-Shabaab rape n’ rob
Run as fast as you can from the Taliban
Oh my gawd! No Jihad
Please read the Qur’an agin’
Is that what is meant? The Qur’an is based on the New Testament… which is based on the Old Testament. We’re all on top of the same base-meant.
And, here I am, “I need a die-a-gram”

The Saudi’s out of Yemen
Can I get an Amen?
They ran from Iran
More than a crack in Iraq
Now who’s gettin’ in
Na, na, na not China
And, here I am, “I need a die-a-gram”

What’s left of the leftovers? What’s the deal with this holiday meal? I’ve been rooked… the turkey’s over-cooked! What else can I say on Thanksgiving Day?

Presented by The Beatless Sense Mongers

LYRICS
Q: Oui, we?
A: Yes. We are us…
No matter the country
Time humanity adjusts
Eagles Of Death Metal
Soaring high… peace for all
Raptor rapture… a religious nature
Not a single fool
Graduates from Mother Nature’s school
Humor and wit model
Love — the fundamental tool
Inclusive nation foundation
Built on solid rock
You want in? Just knock

“What I did, that evening
What she said, that evening
Fulfilling my hope
Headlong I go for glory… OK”
Nope. Run, run, run runaway!
We, oui. Oui, we.
Psycho killers are dangerous to us
If we become what we hate, it’s too late
Don’t wanna be a psycho killer, too
Nooooo, not me. How ’bout you?
We, oui!

ABOUT THE SONG
Style: ExperiMental Music
Chords: [capo2] E Am / E E7 Am Am7 / B E
Rhythm: Mixed Latin Heavy Metal with some at 104 BPM
Recording: digital 1-track stereo

Inspired by the attack on Paris, France and the fans at an “Eagles Of Death Metal” concert. The song is about psycho killings. Individuals who murder are psycho. It’s not about beliefs, race or religion. You have to be nuts to murder someone.

Additional lyrics are from the Talking Heads’ song “Psycho Killer” (originally in French):
Ce que j’ai fait, ce soir-là
Ce qu’elle a dit, ce soir-là
Réalisant mon espoir
Je me lance vers la gloire… OK

Daniel — Vocals, Martin Guitar, Keyboards, Synthesizers (microKorg, Yamaha PSR-740, Casio WK-3500, miniNova, and a couple pedals, as well as, DigiTech and Boss effects)

LYRICS
When you shoot-up unarmed cartoonists
Blood flows like wine… time to draw the line
Our attitude forever persists
Oui we! Not fine… the line’s been drawn
A defiance to carry-on

When the French get fried… the French are toast
The true get tried and make the most
When The End Of Times are upon
Oui we! Not fine… the line’s been drawn
A defiance to carry-on

(whistling solo)

Viva la viva la song and dance
Time to give free speech a chance
What the extreme deem as obscene
Makes it obvious they don’t know what they mean
Oui we… a new dawn
From a defiance to carry-on

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 3
G Em
C D G

Daniel — Vocals, Guitar

Inspired by the lack of whine in France, a post by a friend about “unarmed cartoonists” and a BBC commentators observation of “a defiance to carry-on”.  The song is about the positive attitude after cartoonists at the magazine Charlie Hebdo were murdered by terrorists.
