Lou Reed - The Blue Mask

They tied his arms behind his back
to teach him how to swim
They put blood in his coffee
and milk in his gin
They stood over the soldier
in the midst of the squalor
There was war in his body
and it caused his brain to holler

Make the sacrifice
mutilate my face
If you need someone to kill
I'm a man without a will
Wash the razor in the rain
let me luxuriate in pain
Please don't set me free
death means a lot to me

The pain was lean and it made him scream
he knew he was alive
He put a pin through the nipples on his chest
he thought he was a saint
I've made love to my mother, killed my father and brother
what am I to do
When a sin goes too far, it's like a runaway car
it cannot be controlled

Spit upon his face and scream
there's no Oedipus today
This is no play you're thinking you are in
what will you say
Take the blue mask down from my face
and look me in the eye
I get a thrill from punishment
I've always been that way

I loathe and despise repentance
you are permanently stained
Your weakness buys indifference
and indiscretion in the streets
Dirty's what you are and clean is what you're not
you deserve to be soundly beat

Make the sacrifice
take it all the way
There's no "won't" high enough
to stop this desperate day
Don't take death away
cut the finger at the joint
Cut the stallion at his mount
and stuff it in his mouth

Maar dit nummer he, nou ik denk dat ik het wel 30 keer gedraaid heb de laatste week, want het is zoooo ontzettend goed! Heb jij ook zo'n nummer? You pervert!

Eerder al geplaatst, Shellac:

To the one true God above
Here is my prayer
Not the first you've heard
But the first I've wrote
Not the first but the others
were a long time ago
There are two people here
and I want you to kill them

First she can go quietly by disease or a blow
To the place of her neck where her neckless is closed
Where her gardens come together
Where I used to lay my face
That's where you ought to kill her
In that particular place

Him, just fucking kill him, I don't care if it hurts
Yes I do, I want him to, fucking kill him, but first
Make him cry like a woman, no particular woman
Let him hold out, hold that someone under my cum

Fucking kill him
Fucking hill him
Kill him already, kill him

Fucking kill him
Fucking hill him
Kill him already, kill him

Fucking kill him
Fucking hill him
Kill him already, kill him

Fucking kill him
Fucking hill him
Kill him already, kill him

Kill him,
just fucking kill him,
amen.

Er zijn meer nummers van Shellac, over faeces en bloed op de muren etc.

Ook een leuke ( van Brujeria )

It was back in '32 when times were hard
He had a Colt .45 and a deck of cards
Stagger Lee

He wore rat-drawn shoes and an old stetson hat
Had a '28 Ford, had payments on that

His woman threw him out in the ice and snow
And told him, "Never ever come back no more"

So he walked through the rain and he walked through the mud
Till he came to a place called The Bucket Of Blood

He said "Mr Motherfucker, you know who I am"
The barkeeper said, "No, and I don't give a good goddamn"
To Stagger Lee

He said, "Well bartender, it's plain to see
I'm that bad motherfucker called Stagger Lee"
Mr. Stagger Lee

Barkeep said, "Yeah, I've heard your name down the way
And I kick motherfucking asses like you every day"
Mr Stagger Lee

Well those were the last words that the barkeep said
'Cause Stag put four holes in his motherfucking head

Just then in came a broad called Nellie Brown
Was known to make more money than any bitch in town

She struts across the bar, hitching up her skirt
Over to Stagger Lee, she starts to flirt
With Stagger Lee

She saw the barkeep, said, "O God, he can't be dead!"
Stag said, "Well, just count the holes in the motherfucker's head"

She said, "You ain't look like you scored in quite a time.
Why not come to my pad? It won't cost you a dime"
Mr. Stagger Lee

"But there's something I have to say before you begin
You'll have to be gone before my man Billy Dilly comes in,
Mr. Stagger Lee"

(en vanaf hier wordt het echt ranzig... )

"I'll stay here till Billy comes in, till time comes to pass
And furthermore I'll fuck Billy in his motherfucking ass"
Said Stagger Lee

"I'm a bad motherfucker, don't you know
And I'll crawl over fifty good pussies just to get one fat boy's asshole"
Said Stagger Lee

Just then Billy Dilly rolls in and he says, "You must be
That bad motherfucker called Stagger Lee"
Stagger Lee

"Yeah, I'm Stagger Lee and you better get down on your knees
And suck my dick, because If you don't you're gonna be dead"
Said Stagger Lee

Billy dropped down and slobbered on his head
And Stag filled him full of lead
Oh yeah.
