A bit of 'Valentine's Day', or a social portrait of a family near Christmas' Eve (on Paulo Chagas' graphic score) 02:53
lyrics

English explanation of the happenings: :57 - my father walks in the living room, where the computer is. And I am playing there in this room, indifferently. Some other steps are heard subsequently. 1:52 - my father groans complaining something about the amplifier. 2:01 - a dog's bark with a slamming of the door. Some other steps and a possible voice of Marcos, my brother-in-law. 2:27 - my sister is heard calling to her boyfriend-fiancé, "Marquinhos... cadê ele? (where is he?)" 2:35 - the most poetic moment; my mother screams to the dog, "Pára Cristal... deixa Matheus dormir" - "Stop Crystal... let Matheus sleep". At the moment, I thought this was a message for me...! 2:45 - My father dialogs with my mother about a gift given to some guy, and she tries to make an explanation.

(Lyrics by George Christian) Poem written in July 10th, 2009. well, your time upon the Earth.... is circling through a washing machine (left unpractical).... of your Self.... .. .. all you have to do is WALK your duck.... to the lagoon of melting ice.... where I see in the destiny of your eyes.... .. .. the recording industry does not care .... about the history of your memory….... .. .. all you have to do is WALK.... the march of desperate souls.... in your outfit.... .. .. your dreams are washed AAAAWAAAAAAYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!.... .. .. (do you need any buck?) (GO GET A JOB!).... .. .. inside the cancer of the times,.... you go UPsssss… TAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIRS.... (with the absence of responsibility of elevating .... .... your Self).... .. .. you cannot punish yourself.... because of the color of your skin….... then, why the regret?.... … why the regret?.... .. .. how could you… fuck yourself.... when you don’t have SEX.... to elevate your SELF?.... .. .. you’re just an innocent angel doped with your sleeping pills.... dancing into the veil of Irony, Ivory Irony….... .. .. sleepwalking while… AWAKES.... the laughing stock of mochery.... in ..Paradise...... .. .. (come on, sing-along this lullaby with me:).... and your dreams have to washed AAAAAWAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!.... .. .. (do you need anything else?) (GOOD LUCK!).... .. .. the inner lunacy is reflected underwater.... where a translucent museum of broken skyscrapers was built.... to glorify.... your wishes.... washed.... wissshhhh….... waaasssshhhh….... .... “Your desire is an ORDER”....

(Terminal) With a Dress (with Tod Shelton) 06:51
lyrics

Lyrics by Tod Shelton I would be. alone. If I could not take a home. A home alone... Could not expose I to none. I would be neutral... In a chorus of radical format. Classics that break my face. My nose is gushing. That's kind of you. Right away- I learn- cold plastic- by children. Know one no one I'm not ill... I be sick- cold with a body. My own legs I love... To walk with myself... On My own street... I met you walking your... Cat, sexually dressed I touched- Myself in a costume... In a dress... In a pair of. Your old paints... I stained them with my protein. NO ONE LISTENS TO ME. I TRIED TO FORCE THEM TO SAFETY
