Jetzt auf der Bühne
Die Electro-Piraten
Die grossten Streber der Vereinigten Staaten
Im USA sind alle da bevor der Show beginnt
Aber da in Deutschland weiss niemand wer wir sind
Unbekannt in Deutschland
Wir haben Flüge bezahlt
Und die Sprache gelernt.
Und spielen jetzt an einem Ort,
So weit entfernt
Vielleicht nicht sofort beim WGT
Mehr so Parkplatz KDW
Unbekannt in Deutschland

4 Fat Guys

electronic hockey in the 1980s
balances dexterity and heavyweights these
avatars of alacrity
and physical prowess
are available in averages
of swiftness and power
skate right
fist fight
four fat guys
four skinny guys
four medium
or two fat guys
and two skinny guys
or combinations thereof
four fat guys
four skinny guys
or four in between
differing degrees of strength and speed
will make up the team
we’re running out of lyrics at a minute 30 in
because the premise of this song is embarrassingly thin
in just a couple of beats, we’ll bring back the chorus
with the middle guy, the speedy guy and also the tortoise
skate right
fist fight
skate quick
high sticks
4 fat guys
win every time

Peace out, land
I’m leaving this scene
Count me amongst the submarine
‘Cause the scientific name of my best friends is
Pronounced as “Lontra canadensis”
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
From cool to hotter climes
Straight up otter time
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
Swim through a lotta slime
Straight up otter time
I’m hanging with these dudes with subaqueous skills
And insulated coats for the subaqueous chills
In colors including white, brown, black and grey
Hold on to my hand so that you don’t drift away
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
From cool to hotter climes
Straight up otter time
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
From the salty brine
Straight up otter time
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
From cool to hotter climes
Straight up otter time
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
Skateboarding’s not a crime
Straight up otter time
Their eyes are shielded from the lake
By membranes that nictitate
Their habitats tend to be varied:
Swamplands, woodlands, estuaries
They inhabit rocky shores
And are mostly carnivores
But sometimes eat aquatic plants
C’mon everybody, do the otter dance
Do the otter dance
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
From cool to hotter climes
Straight up otter time
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
We’re throwing rotten limes
Straight up otter time
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
From cool to hotter climes
Straight up otter time
Let’s see some friends of mine
The underwater kind
I’ve taught a paradigm
Straight up otter time

you don’t have a prayer
we’re multi-laired
you’ll be ensnared
we’re multi-laired
i’ve got a tomb of horrors and hall of doom
a technodrome and a panic room
secret passageways, ramparts and a moat
and all the treasure is trapped, so i know that you don’t
have a prayer
i’ve got a black pyramid and a neutral zone
with a skull motif on my iron throne
and all the underwater exits are guarded by boats
you can’t escape through the vents, so i know that you don’t
have a prayer
chicagooooo
one hideout has the hand grenades
one has got the garden maze
one’s equipped with missle turrets
one’s guarded by abyssal demons
not a single reason to be scared
there’s more than one, we’re multi-laired

dragging on throughout the day
all my strength is sapped away
i just wanna hit the hay
and stray from the waking world
but when it’s dark, I come alive
all my systems come online
the night is when I energize
and rise when the day’s adjourned
i defy the nuclei that strike the sky from space
when the sun turns off we
fire up the coffee
and the synthesizers
and cubase
we stay up late
and we percolate
and we oscillate
in the lightless nightshift
we shun the sun
i’m justified
just stepping outside
in cimmerian skies
in the lightless nightshift
we shun the sun
don’t wanna dominate the world
instead, I’ll take the zoo
and party with the polar bears and the kangaroos
‘cause all the coolest critters congregate nocturnally
and I’m the coolest cat in town, so they’ve all heard of me
but let’s submerge when we converge to escape this cruel candescence
‘cause i don’t need the sun to see with bioluminescence

I don’t know if you recall, but I remember it well
We were in a random chat room on irc
I sent you some of my music over the DSL
You said it was cool and that meant a lot to me
‘Cause five years later, we’re both rocking the scene
Discussing arpeggiators in festival green
Rooms and
I don’t know if i can thank you guys enough
‘Cause i only got this far by studying your stuff
Very important to me

Albums and remixes each better than the last ‘cause you said your favorite track was the next one
Turning up the bass (“base” GET IT?) with every dancefloor smash beyond a ten like it was hexadecimal
This is not a call to action to reform the band
I understand how it gets when you need to move on
But i do think it’s worth
Expressing in verse
That i think you guys made a bunch of really great songs

conjuring conduit for causing metamorphosis
arcane catalyst for this corporeal contortionist
altering appearances, although the change is torturous
with my might & magic, we’ll penetrate these fortresses

first vampires fought the werewolves
then demons and gargoyles fought frankenstein
now prepare for the next epic battle
of the mythological kind
hominin head
leonine torso
manticores abhor remorse no
one escapes when we take flight
our tails are armed with stalactites
mermaids
kill with a kiss
drag you down into the abyss
manticores
mermaids
face two new monster brigades
mermaids
manticores
phase three of the monster wars
phase three of the monster wars
phase three of the monster wars
beautiful bait
for a maritime trap
these iron maidens
are on the attack
succumb to the siren song of the sea
less S.O.S., more R.I.P.
manticores won’t fall for
your high seas harassment
especially the scorpion variant
