“FiXXX ur Recep+ion
I never bother
with the broken antennas
Reception comes
through clearly for those not jealous
Love life alone;
don't buy extra large umbrellas
We can hold hands
if
you can pick up
what i put down-
motherfucker,
don't make a sound
Loud with ac+ion
will my real dark prince please stand up...
Avoidance-void
bores me to death; living dead girl
Beat 'round the bush
I'm not UR around the way girl
Slam dance; slam words
passion's a thing- give it a whirl
We can ignite
if
you can get down
burn; shut me up
motherfucker,
and don't give up
Fight for your right
what's your message; no ads disrupt”

Todas as pessoas ricas e infelizes que você já conheceu tomam remédio pra dormir; soldados da Infantaria Móvel não precisam disso. Dê um beliche a um soldado e tempo pra se enfiar nele, e ele vai ficar tão feliz quanto um bichinho dentro de uma maçã... dormindo.”

“Fizeram amor no quarto de Ansky e quem os houvesse visto teria dito que fodiam como se dali a umas horas fossem mmorrer.

Nenhum dos dois pensava (ou queria pensar) na morte, mas ambos se mexiam, ou se trançavam, ou dialogavam, como se estivessem à beira do abismo”

“Flag Cruelty Fraught (The New American Anthem)
Say, can you see,
The darkness we've caused?
Our star spangled banner,
Is a flag cruelty fraught.
It ain't land of the free,
It ain't home of the brave.
Where looks define dignity,
Is but humanity's grave.
Slavery is alive as racism,
Bigotry still claims dominion.
First we must treat these ailments,
Or else, for us there is no dawn.
O say, it's time to abolish all false glory.
Forget valor, let's first practice equality.”
