CARNIVAL IN COAL LYRICS

1. Yes! We Have No Bananas

WE... HAVE... NO... BA... NA... NAS... TO... DAY!

2001...
We're back stronger than pokemons
As most of you have been asking for more...
(For the ones who join us today and want a summary
there were two albums before the one you're holding in your hands
Still you may purchase it by mail order
through Kodiak, Seasons of Mist, Holy Records and Adipocere)

I see you want a lil' bit of salsa
I can see you want a lil' bit of rumba
I see you want a huge part of grind
No disappointment - all this you will find

We've got everything inside our shop
C. in C. 'll make you sweat until you drop
You'll get everything that you want us to play
But sorry... we have no bananas today
No way!

We've got gloomy tunes and funny ditties we would like to spare
And secrets about journalists that we would like to share
As the habits of some famous actors of the French scene
You wouldn't believe the things we've seen, it isn't what it seems
You'll never forget what we're going to say
But yes, we have no bananas today

I see you want a lil' bit of salsa
I can see you want a lil' bit of rumba
I see you want a huge part of grind
No disappointment - all this you will find

We've got everything inside our shop
C. in C. 'll make you sweat until you drop
You'll get everything that you want us to play
But sorry... we have no bananas today
No way!

Won't you taste an orange?
Won't you taste a lemon?
Won't you taste an apple?
Now won't you taste my fist?

We're there to fulfill your needs
Whatever you may like
But don't you bite the hand that feeds
When bananas are hard to find

I see you want a lil' bit of salsa
I can see you want a lil' bit of rumba
I see you want a huge part of grind

2. Cadillac

So it seems I'm good at nothing, a looser - a bum - or so they say.
Desperately trying to make my way in life but instead I'm diggin' my grave.
And when I'm about to succeed I know you'll fuck it all up because that's how it goes.

Then I'll go back diggin' deeper or at least that's what you think,
But I won't allow you that pleasure, not much left but my pride but it's growing stronger.
The more you ask the more you get and you're gonna get more than you ever guessed.

And we will see who will be smiling
When I come down the street in my brand new silver Cadillac...

You should remember the story of that young shepherd
Who had two thousand pretty biquettes and a goat that he was always beating up.
One day he woke up and there was a biquette left but the goat had turn to an XXL model.
(This is a metaphor)

So you'd better start to mark my words:
The lamb soon will turn to kebab and in the name of Gagnahon I'll become worse than bad.
I'll gather all your tears and wash my ass inside.
It's the principle of turning tide, of turning tide.

And we will see who will be smiling
When I come down the street in my brand new silver Cadillac...

Cadillac

Cadillac Fleetwood 1959
Le sommet en matire de voiture automobile
Un salon roulant au moteur 8 cylindres placs en V

So you'd better start to mark my words:
The lamb soon will turn to kebab and in the name of Gagnahon I'll become worse than bad.
I'll gather all your tears and wash my ass inside.
It's the principle of turning tide, of turning tide.

And we will see who will be smiling
When I come down the street in my brand new silver Cadillac...

3. 1308.JP.08

[Suppuration cover]

I try search through my mind
I try to free my soul

My soul? My mind?
What am I now, an Entity?
Endless corridors made of dusty mirrors surround me
Reflecting the Being I once was

I try search through my mind
I try to free my soul

Stained with blood and bathed in tears
He holds out his hand in my direction
I have to help him to save my soul!
I have to return to find my exit...

Wandering through the lobby I have found my way
I open the door
As I'm hit by a blinding light
I hope I will be free

Will I ever be free...?

4. Exit Upon Void

Forgiven or damned, whispered Scarbo.
With a spiderweb for shroud I'll bury you down below.
And into the crypt where you'll have to die.
Out in the limbo you'll hear the children cry!

Let me have an aspen leave to cradle me across the lake
Unless the trunk of (the) tarentula will suck me down inside my grave.

No way! he laughed.
You'll be the fodder of the beetle hunting it's prey at dusk.
Wrapped in a snakeskin, covered with gold,
Your only escape is a dive in the void.

(A birdsong in the distance invites my look through the trees.)
And when my life is over, remember I taught you how to please me:

Come with me, follow me if you dare
On a strange journey, a trip to nowhere...
I will take you down below
With Charon for guide to visit the unknown.

Your life will be a way for me to pay for all my sins.
I'm sure the shores of hell will find in you a graceful gift.

Forgiven or damned,
Whispered Scarbo...
You'll soon understand
That it don't mean nothing
For those who are blinded by insanity,
Heaven or hell it means nothing to thee...
Means nothing to thee...
It means nothing to thee...
Those who are blinded by insanity...

Come with me, follow me if you dare
On a strange journey, a trip to nowhere...
I will take you down below
With Charon for guide to visit the unknown.

Your life will be a way for me to pay for all my sins.
I'm sure the shores of hell will find in you a graceful gift.

Forgiven or damned, whispered Scarbo.
With a spiderweb for shroud I'll bury you down below.
And into the crypt where you'll have to die.
Out in the limbo you'll hear the children cry!

5. Don't Be Happy, Worry

Here's a little song I wrote
You might sing it note for note
And if you can't remind the words
Count on me to stick it inside your skull

Ain't got no class ain't got no style
Ain't got no cash since you've been around
Remember the point of that ditty
Don't be happy... Worry!

The gathering of your teeth on the pavement
Won't be easy with broken fingers
Cause I won't listen to your "shit-chat" anymore
On you I closed a door (How bad! How sad!)
Still I wonder what you were waiting for...

How could I have been so stupid
How could I've been so blind
I'm still searching for reasons
That I will probably never find
That old fucking human nature
Is the only thing to blame
Except you and all your twisted ways
Which are all the same
All the shame

I've tried to think I was wrong
Then evidence reached my eyes
Helping me making my mind: So I...

Leave today
I won't change my way
I won't listen to what you have to say
So now sucker you'd better worry!
Damn over to be happy!

The gathering of your teeth on the pavement
Won't be easy with broken fingers
Cause I won't listen to your "shit-chat" anymore
On you I closed a door (How bad! How sad!)
Still I wonder what you were waiting for...

How could I have been so stupid
How could I've been so blind
I'm still searching for reasons
That I will probably never find
That old fucking human nature
Is the only thing to blame
Except you and all your twisted ways
Which are all the same

The gathering of your teeth on the pavement
Won't be easy with broken fingers
Cause I won't listen to your "shit-chat" anymore
On you I closed a door (How bad! How sad!)
Still I wonder what you were waiting for...

I've tried to think I was wrong
Then evidence reached my eyes
Helping me making my mind: So I...

Leave today
I won't change my way
I won't listen to what you have to say
So now sucker you'd better worry!
Damn over to be happy!

6. Gang Bang

There's a gang bang on my screen
And I watch it till it aches

My only pleasure is to watch you
When sweat melts with your skin
If you want it, do it
Call me Mr. Obsession

7. Daaahhhh

Daaahhh
Daaahhh
Daaahhh

Daaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh

8. Ring My Bell

If you feel lonesome
If you're on your own
If you feel like needing help
Don't wait to ring my bell

You will find me as cute as your favourite nephew
Until I break your knees with a baseball bat
You will find me so kind, I'll be someone you like
Until I brush your teeth with a razorblade

I'll be there to heal you
I'll be there to care
I'll be there like your own son
So that you can't be aware

First I'll introduce myself as your best friend
The one you never had, the one you were waiting for
Then once is empty your bill-filled matras
You can thank your holy Christ if by chance I don't take your life

If you need a rendez-vous
24/7 I'll be there for you
I'll be the bogeyman of the stories
You've been telling to your children

You will find me as cute as your favourite nephew
Until I break your knees with a baseball bat
You will find me so kind, I'll be someone you like
Until I brush your teeth with a razorblade

First I'll introduce myself as your best friend
The one you never had, the one you were waiting for
Then once is empty your bill-filled matras
You can thank your holy Christ if by chance I don't take your life

The more it gets old
The more it gets cold

9. Fear/Fear Not

"Quel intrt que de ce monde? J'en aspire plus...Que sommes nous? Pices informes sur un chiquier que nous ne connaissons pas les rgles...Craindre ou pas craindre?"

Fear that little light in the apple of my eye
When I don't understand how you can be so twisted
Fear that little spark in the apple of my eye
When I don't comprehend how you can resist to me

Fear not pain... It will be easy...
Fear not pain... Everything will go fast.

I have never been the one to provoke conflict (I'm such a coward)
I have never been the one to provoke pain (Je suis doudouille)
I have always been the one to provoke anger (I know you're disappointed)
I have always been the one that spoils it all (Why don't you leave me?)

Fear not pain... And things will go on cause shit happens...
Fear not pain... It happens everyday of our lives.
Fear not pain... Fear not pain...

Leave me we're no good together
You deserve something better

Fear not me gone
Fear not me somewhere else
Fear not coldness in my part of the bed
Fear not the lack of my arm around your breasts
Fear not the problems you can't guess
Fear not the problems you can't guess

Fear not me gone
Fear not me somewhere else
And because one day I may leave
Fear not the idea of death
Because one day I may leave
So fear not the idea of death
