Somaa
Cute


The drunkard falling asleep on a park bench
falling asleep
the black man in the jungle hunting a lion
hunting a lion
the Queen of England, the doctor from China
they all fit into
the same machine

cute cute cute cute cute cute cute so
cute so
cute cute cute cute cute cute cute so
cute so

when many kinds of people
were put in the same bunch
when many kinds of people
were put in the same bunch


Mato
Worm


I'm a worm
I'm a worm
I was born a worm
in forty-six
I was the smallest in a series of brothers
A suicide problem
is the only marital problem
Oh yeah!  
  
Oh if the worm's woman
were a madonna
Oh if the worm's woman
were a madonna
and never would the worm
leave the can
and never would the worm
leave the can

I'm a hermaphrodite
I'm a four-wheel drive
one end is a cunt
the other end a cock
one end is jam
the other end is pickles

Oh if the worm's woman
were a madonna
Oh if the worm's woman
were a madonna
and the worm would never
leave the can
and the worm would never
leave the can


Pissalla natti
Peeing Pretty


Romeo and Juliet - on the floor
I lie, it's raining
I'm not alone, I want to touch
the stomach, even if only in secret
the girl runs away from the gangsters
in Tallinn, in her dreams
I rescue her from the poplar lane
in an old Mercedes

and the girl wakes up, she needs to pee
naked she tiptoes to pee

and she's pretty peeing, pretty peeing
a princess even in the toilet
so pretty peeing, pretty peeing
I would like to wipe her

The clothes are a mess, on the floor
I lie, it's still raining
I'm not alone, I want to touch
the stomach, even if only in secret
the girl laughs and giggles in the toilet
about her dream
I had rescued her from the poplar lane
in an old Mercedes

and the girl in the toilet wants a kiss
naked I tiptoe to kiss her

and so she's pretty peeing, pretty peeing
a princess even in the toilet
so pretty peeing, pretty peeing
I would like to wipe her
