I was swollen all over
So I went to a doctor
He said: you must be proud
Of the growth of
The Gross National Product
Gross National Product
Per capita
Makes me swell
God save the GNP
Make it swell like you and me
Tide is lifting swollen cadavers
And boats filled with
Gross National Product
I was swollen all over
So I went to a doctor
He said: you must be proud
Of the growth of
The gross National Product

Going down your family tree
The only thing I learn about you is
That death is in your genes
Death is in your genes
You have done your best to conceal
Your problematic genealogy
But i can see through this
I can see through this
Yes, you've got your father's eyes
Far away in distant lands
Blood is washed off fairy tales
It's a stratagem

Steep stairs leading nowhere
Steady step ever forward
Come my child I will play you
a tune you'll always remember
Stop only when I tell you
Go only when i say so
You lack the words you could use to
express what you have but and inkling of
Steady step ever forward...

I mistook a cop for a tree,
it was dark and I had to pee.
He said I'll let you walk away,
only if you do it again.
He kissed me on the cheek and said:
god bless the fatherland.
My guardian angel has a low self esteem.
He's got a big baton and that's all he needs.

Are you serving a life sentence on this earth?
If you are, please keep your teachings to yourself.
What can you teach me from the things you can do well,
apart from denying yourself?
Did you come here
to applaud to everything
that's your equal in mediocrity?
So clap your hands to a funeral march.
Fourty years like fourty nights.
To cast a shadow you need no light.
You're a shadow yourself.

Extra Lungs came into being to utilize inspirations reaching far beyond the music they played with their other bands. ... more
