It was not part of their blood it came to them very late With long arrears to make good when the Saxon began to hate They were not easily moved they were icy -- willing to wait Till every count should be proved ere the Saxon began to hate. It was not suddenly bred it will not swiftly abate Through the chilled years ahead when time shall count from the date No it was not suddenly bred it will not swiftly abate Through the chilled years ahead when time shall count from the date That the Saxon began to hate yes to hate Their voices were even and low their eyes were level and straight There was neither sign nor show when the Saxon began to hate It was not preached to the crowd it was not taught by the state No man spoke it aloud when the Saxon began to hate Text: Rudyard Kipling (Original title: The Wrath Of The Awakened Saxon). It was not suddenly bred it will not swiftly abate Through the chilled years ahead when time shall count from the date No it was not suddenly bred it will not swiftly abate Through the chilled years ahead when time shall count from the date That the Saxon began to hate yes to hate

The Snake 03:13
On her way to work one morning down the path alongside the lake
 A tender hearted woman saw a poor half frozen snake 
His pretty coloured skin had been all frosted with the dew 
 Poor thing she cried I'll take you in and I'll take care of you
 Take me in tender woman take me in, for heaven's sake 
Take me in tender woman sighed the snake She wrapped him up all cozy in a curvature of silk
 And laid him by the fireside with some honey and some milk
 She hurried home from work that night and as soon as she arrived
 She found that pretty snake she'd taken in had been revived Take me in tender woman take me in, for heaven's sake
 Take me in tender woman sighed the snake She clutched him to her bosom, you're so beautiful she cried
 But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died 
She stroked his pretty skin and then she kissed and held him tight
 But Instead of saying thanks that snake gave her a vicious bite Take me in tender woman take me in, for heaven's sake
 Take me in tender woman sighed the snake I saved you cried the woman and you've bit me, but why?
 You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die
 Oh shut up, silly woman, said the reptile with a grin
 You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in Take me in tender woman take me in, for heaven's sake
 Take me in tender woman sighed the snake

You give me black sexy kiss you give me white lovely night You are so fun and smart and cool to hang around you are so bright You're creative and artistic and even nice if on the right speed You like the colour blue black red green and your dogs smoking weed You gotta be sexy, as fit as a lime Or you will be lonely, out of our time Take care of your body, if you wanna shine Shine like a true beauty, drinking delicious wine I invoke Thee o great Mistress of the mysteries of the night Thy veil enlightens Thy Greatness I implore Thee to protect her Lunar Goddess please hear my call O Thee universal mother Do me the honour of Thy presence give protection to my beloved You gotta be sexy, as fit as a lime Or you will be lonely, out of our time Take care of your body, if you wanna shine Shine like a true beauty, drinking delicious wine

We're going to make you pay the price Now we gonna force you to bow down to our law Feel how the pendulum swings back towards your face There is a new sheriff in town and we're coming to take you down No we are not going to compromise There's got to be consequences for all your crimes Yes we’re going to make you feel our wrath There is a new sheriff in town and we're coming to take you down We gonna make you regret, we gonna make you suffer We gonna make you feel how it feels, to be denied humanity Now there's tens of millions of garbage men We getting ready to take out all of your trash No you're never going to rise again There is a new sheriff in town and we're coming to take you down We gonna make you regret, we gonna make you suffer We gonna make you feel how it feels, to be denied humanity

The Ocean 02:39
Across the ocean hear the call of the lion Roaring through the wind demanding a revolution Feeling straight in the bones the appeal of a pure movement Movement of sanity get over with the abashment And fly over the ocean on the wings of the magician Forget about all the madness that made us fall into darkness Leaving far behind the wish for death of the sad kind Joining in the fight for the reign of the mastermind Looking forward again to reach a state of no complain Dancing in the wind enjoying the taste of the gain And fly over the ocean on the wings of the magician Forget about all the madness that made us fall into darkness Resurrecting the kindness that brings tough love and tenderness Flying over the ocean singing along with the Titan

Til Valhall 02:57
Fighting till Valhall heroes on the rise Feared by the corrupt supported by the Gods From Helsinki to the world Soldiers Of Oden Oden is a ring Oden is everything Oden has always been Oden will always be Never let a bad man know know your misfortunes For from him you'll never receive repayment for a kind heart Cattle die kinsmen die I myself shall also die But one thing that never dies are the deeds of a noble man The Giant in front of you is never bigger Never bigger than the Gods living within you From Helsinki to the world Soldiers Of Oden Oden is a ring Oden is everything Oden has always been Oden will always be

La Luna 03:01
¿Cómo es la luna? Redonda redonda Como una rueda como una ronda ¿Cómo es la luna? Chiquita y bonita También me alumbra media lunita Yo no sé yo no sé de dónde viene y a dónde va Yo no sé yo no sé pero Mamita me lo dirá

I've been trying to tell you what I know yes to be true But you refused to even listen as if you were so awaken so I Turned my back I walked away Couldn't believe my eyes couldn't stand your decay Mamouk et Golto ont vidé tous les verres Au bal de la misère ils ont croisé leurs frères Eternels et fiers ils ont servi la bière Sous les arches de pierre ils ont dit leurs prières I've been trying to teach you What I have learnt 'cause we've been lied to But you took me for a brigand you didn't try to understand so I Turned my back I walked away Couldn't believe my eyes couldn't stand your decay Mamouk et Golto ont vidé tous les verres Au bal de la misère ils ont croisé leurs frères Eternels et fiers ils ont servi la bière Sous les arches de pierre ils ont dit leurs prières

A drunk tongue is an honest one so let's get drunk and tell each other Everything we're too afraid we're too afraid to say sober In vino veritas in cervesio felicitas Nunc est bibendum bonum vinum laetificat cor hominis Yes we need less whine and therefore we need more wine Yes wee need less fear and therefore we need more beer And we will forget our pain for the night we'll all feel the same We will be dancing in the rain tomorrow we'll be be born again In vino veritas in cervesio felicitas Nunc est bibendum bonum vinum laetificat cor hominis Yes we need less whine and therefore we need more wine Yes wee need less fear and therefore we need more beer
