Arrgh! *head breaking noise*

morslaThe Rammstein vs. Zanfria remix of Serbia is the funniest, and most deeply wrong, version of a Rammstein song that I have yet encountered. Both at once. Samples from a dozen songs, boppy euro-pop song lyrics, and heavy bass riffs... arrrgh...
I dived into my music as soon as I got home, to seek solace from a work-induced headache. Equal parts fatigue, from doing my first all-daylight-hours day in a couple of weeks (I got to work at 8:30 this morning); desk-damage (eight hours in front of a flickering monitor); and frustration - I now have thirty unpaid days under my belt, as I wait for some kind of back-payment.
On the bright side, if there's no way that I can get paid, I now have enough flex time to last out my current contract... ending on June 30th...
Still, my bills would like to be paid at some stage, so I hope I can get at least a couple of weeks covered. I'll be getting some sort of answer before I leave work tomorrow, and if the answer is not good I may not be going back in again until July *packs hawaian shirt and honours-survival kit* ;-)
Things got much better when I got home to find that my PWEI CD has arrived at last. Together with some Killing Joke, I'm adding new virtual shelves to the music library inside my computer... and this one sure doesn't require whispering. I gathered up my CDs of Loud Shite and burned out my memories of today...
It's still very quiet, out there in the world. I guess most sane people are still on holidays, as the trains still run on Public Holiday time until next Monday. All the same, there's plenty happening back behind the scenes - though few people can hear it. For the people wrestling with their daemons at the moment, my thoughts are with you all. If you ever want to catch up, you know where to find me... at pretty much any time of day or night, lately.
Re-adjusting to daytime hours is painful if you have to do it fast. It's like going cold-turkey from all the sleep-now and wake-now chemicals your body pumps through you each day. I think it might take some practice. Heh... as if in sympathy, my 'puter is playing me My Own Summer (shove it)...
*grins* Such appropriate lyrics to land in my lap...
Mental note: Must try to get sleep before 4am, this time. I need to be up before 7 again...

Ich Bin Ein Auslander
"...Listen to the victim, abused by the system
The basis is racist, you know that we must face this.
"It can't happen here". Oh yeah?
"Take a look around at the cities and the towns."
See them hunting, creeping, sneaking
Breeding fear and loathing with the lies they're speaking
The knife, the gun, broken bottle, petrol bomb
There is no future when the past soon come.
And when they come to ethnically cleanse me
Will you speak out? Will you defend me?
Or laugh through a glass eye as they rape our lives
Trampled underfoot by the right on the rise
[CHORUS}
[s]"You call us..."....Ich Bin Ein Auslander (x4)
Welcome to a state where the politics of hate
Shout loud in the crowd "Watch them beat us all down"
There's a rising tide in the rivers of blood
But if the answer isn't violence, neither is your silence
If they come to ethnically cleanse me
Will you speak out? Will you defend me?
Freedom of expression doesn't make it alright
Trampled underfoot by the rise of the right
[CHORUS]
Ich Bin Ein Auslander. (x8)..."

Everything's Cool
"...These eyes see only what they wanna see
These ears hear only what they wanna hear
These minds think only what they wanna think
These lies, these lies
You will find no answers in this head
What you see is what you get
Watch as all the lights go out
Down and out, out for the count
Take your places, choose your sins
Everyone loses, noone wins
I have seen the future and this is how it begins
[CHORUS]
In chaos and riots, the screech of machines
No right and no wrong and no in between
Fall one by one, the queen to her fool
Dos dedos mis amigos - everything's cool
Everything's...
These arms hold whoever needs to be held
These hands take whatever they wanna take
These words fake whoever needs to be faked
These lies, these lies
Look for clues inside the baby's head
Hear the words yet to be said
Cue the music, fade to black
No such thing as no payback
Take this line, know where it ends
No return, no make amends
Is this the future or this is how it will end?
[CHORUS]
[CHORUS]
Everything's cool... (x2)..."
