Rudimentary Peni

E.P.'S OF R.P.


Media Person

Green to feel blue?
Is your vision purely golden?
Is your humour black or olden?
Do you find you're getting yellow?
'Though you know you're in the red dread
Red dread red dread red dread red dread red dread red

I'm your media friend
Transparent so close friend

Are you green to feel blue?
Is your vision purely golden?
Is your humour black or olden?
Do you find you're getting yellow?
'Though you know you're in the red dread
Red dread red dread red

I'm your media friend
Around the clock religion

Green to feel blue?
Is your vision purely golden?
Is your humour black or olden?
Do you find you're getting yellow?
'Though you know you're in the red dread
Red dread red dread red dread red dread red dread red

I'm your media friend
With you to the rainbow end
Green to feel blue


Him Hymn

For fifty-four years he worked hard
On five foul factory flaws
Boredom ranking low on his list of fears
Though they say his tears they cried dry tears

He's no teenager
He's a real neat rager

He's got trust encrust in lust
Though his high finance is low low low
He may look like a heavy metal dealer
But out on the road he's a true freewheeler

He is an buddhist saviour
He is an christian aider

He is an buddhist saviour
He is an christian aider


Blind Dogs

The unseeing eyes of the blinded pupils
Unseeing guidance, the lead of the blind dogs
Token gestures from life-long investors
Questions only for those who question

A vicious circle of passive acceptance
Passive acceptance of a vicious circle

Prevention by convention of infantile dissention
Creates a self-sufficient form of self oppression
Numbing of awareness, a craving to be led
The image of a hero planted in your head

A vicious circle of passive acceptance
Passive acceptance of a vicious circle
Questions only for those who question
The lead of the blind dogs, dogs of war


B-Ward

Discord in b-ward a cliché never bored
Discord in b-ward siggy siggy siggy fraud?
Discord in b-ward a goal that's never scored
Discord in b-ward excreaciating smell hell!

Discord in b-ward just trust in your lord
Discord in b-ward eaten not gnawed
Discord in b-ward good deeds fast flawed
Discord in b-ward occupants over-awed


Crazy Chain

Crazy crazy chain we're strung up again
Umbilical cord around the neck and pain is sane
Crazy crazy chain gagged & bound inane
Crazy crazy chain label underachieve & plain

Black statue looms in doomsday rooms rap
Fetish worship motivation life-span trap

Crazy crazy chain we're strung up again
Umbilical cord around the neck and pain is sane
Crazy crazy chain gagged & bound inane
Crazy crazy chain label underachieve & plain

Black statue looms in doomsday rooms rap
Fetish worship motivation life-span trap

Crazy crazy crazy crazy chain!


The Gardener

In the garden the roses have no thorns,
The growth is steady and quite natural, no parasites, no harm,
Immortal existence, perpetual motion, forever peace and charm.

Forever peace and charm. Forever peace and charm. Forever peace and charm.


Teenage Time Killer

Teenage time killer,
When it gets old it can wish it was young
Teenage time killer,
Skull of James Dean haunts the dream of the teen
Teenage time killer,
Youth of nausea, youthanasia

Teenage time killer,
When it gets old it can wish it was young
Teenage time killer,
Skull of James Dean haunts the dream of the teen
Youth of nausea, youth of nausea, youthanasia

Dead Living

I'm a zombie, the crowd burried me
My piercing eyes they just couldn't see
I'm a zombie a death in their life
I'm a zombie no peace in their strife


Black President

Peanut farmer, b-movie actor

Awakening coughs
Desires for powers
Prime the ministers
Watch them go off
You have to be hardy to rest on your laurels
You have to be hardy, but I'm so intense
A bun in the oven, I'd fry in the fridge
A newspaper, crowd blind, snow blind
Close one eye, become their king
The walls between you and me

Are you a snake?
I'll use a ladder!
I'll use a ladder!
I'll use a ladder!
Robotic cool can mingle with my humanoid fool
You have to be hardy
You have to be hardy to rest on your laurels!
To stop all changes make time redundant!
Black black black black president


Tower Of Strength

Tower of strength takes to the sea
Scours ocean via quay
Same old story muscle bound and gorey
Brand new story death without glory
Infinite story so new, so hoary
Build a tower of strength and watch it weaken
Construct high hopes as the brightest beacon
Watch the seagulls eat the trash
You contemptuosly ditch

Do you know a seagull?
Do you know a wreck?
Are you tired of the tide?
Are you tired of the tide?
Roll in a rock pool, come let's hide

Do you know a raging wind?
Do you know a seagull?
Do you know a wreck?
Do you know a raging wind?
Are you tired of the tide?
Are you tired of the tide?
Roll in a rock pool, come let's hide

Tower of strength takes to the sea, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh


Play

(Rock and Roll beast is dead, ?but your ungle must be fades?)

Come on everybody join your hands
Come in everybrain clap new bands
Come in everybody clap your hands
Come on everybrain join new bands

We all play the same old chords
We all tread the same old boards

Come on everybody join your hands
Come in everybrain clap new bands
Come in everybody clap your hands
Come on everybrain join new bands


Sacrifice

God is nothing more than an obsessive lie.
While sunday school children are brainwashed into the line,
And presented with as truth what's really just a lie,
Another childs' self-belief is sacrificed.

In the eyes of the lord, men are his servants,
In the eyes of the lord, women are mens' servants,
In the eyes of the lord, we're authority's servants,
In the eyes of the lord, everyone's a servant.

Sexual roles perversely glorified,
Beyond virgin motherhood, all status is denied.
But starvation and death's; the real testiment
To the truth of the god your bible represents.


Cosmetic Plague

Being honest is no means of survival, avoid your inner-feelings like the plague,
This is what it takes to comply with the images this structure will accomodate,
But things aren't what they seem when they're partially hidden behind walls of pretence built for peace of mind.
The barriers between us are forever maintained by our acceptance of the roles others choose to define.

In a world of competition life's portrayed as a contest where we're forced to live by making gains at others expense,
But no-one's really gaining when perpetual conflict's the result of our relationships based on pretence,
We don't need this cultural cosmetic division it upholds the self-interest on which the system feeds,
A deconditioned consciousness of mutual respect is the only way to cure this cosmetic disease.


Subdued Violence

Let's find someone we can blame it all on
Someone so stupid they can't see
Pull out each hair one by one
By three sick old frail worm, claustraphobia
Suck suck suck, suck the puss holes dry
Hate noise, hate you, agrophobia
Punch kapow now, how bang down the door
Mediocre idiocy, harlequin acting girl

Dreams could be the root of a passable growth
Treated as a child, how are children treated
Broken arms, broken brains it's not a bit funny
Minor dramas, minor life, closed mind
?(Case history, pretension mystery
Don't mention it pathetic past
Future forever future for never white
Feather apprenticed weather seller
Fight for light and you'll get dark)?.


Only Human

Hey you! Yeah you!
You're the only human eveyone's an alien
Save you, save you
We're malevolent malignant tumours sucking on your body
Preying on your mind never mind, never mind
Preying on your mind never mind, never mind

Dissecting your soul, spirit being or whatever
Put your brain ???
We've your whole life videoed
Your womb, sub-life, childhood, adolescence, adulthood, old age


The Bile Ball

A stagnant pool of bile contains as much interest...
...As the bible
And is much less harmful
And is much more helpful
And is much more reverened
And is much more irreverent


Farce

She is such a pretty girl,
Her shape fits well into a mould.
Her mind removed, her body's sold,
She does exactly what she's told.
And he is such a brave young man,
If his brain can't then violence can.
His mind was drained since life began
Of the compassion he once had.

Why go on living in the past?
We just uphold the sexual farce
Past is past is past is farce
Why go on living in the past?

If air to breathe is hard to find
In her tight mould she doesn't mind.
She fits in well, she's one of a kind
Her processed mind upholds the lies.
And he in turn plays out the part,
We tempted him with from the start.
And she in turn plays out the part
Dictated to her by the past.

Why go on living in the past?
We just uphold the sexual farce
Past is past is past is farce
Why go on living in the past?


Bloody Jellies

There will be no coffins
When you and I die
No consecrated ground
A sin to end all sins
And angels with scorched wings
And if the thought of this stings
Sorry god there's no coffins
Just bloody jellies
No coffins
Just bloody jellies

Glance at the nice town
See the war plan it owns
There will be mass graves
So I want my death-grant
30 pounds in advance
Buy now, don't leave to chance
At least it's the final kill

No coffins,
Just bloody jellies
No coffins,
Just bloody jellies

This, their creation
To purify the planet
A new beginning
No, it's not destruction


Mice Race

Dawn breaks but it isn't a new day
Men like sheep, women like mice
All caught in the rat race
Take a closer look at what's going on today
Are you really justified in having nothing to say?
Are you really justified in having nothing to say?
Are you not aware of a feeling of humiliation?
Don't you have to sell yourself and keep on saying "Sir"
Are you really satisfied that everything's O.K.?

Conditioned from the start and controlled from all directions
Swamped by a normality that musn't be questioned
Ignorance is only a form of self-deception
Are you really justified in having nothing to say?
Are you really justified in having nothing to say?
Take a closer look at what's going on today
Are you really satisfied that everything's O.K.?
Cos perhaps after all too much thinking doesn't pay!
Perhaps after all too much thinking doesn't pay!
Perhaps after all too much thinking doesn't pay!
Perhaps after all too much thinking doesn't pay!
Perhaps after all too much thinking doesn't pay!


Defined By Age

The gap between young and old
Exists because it's what we're told
The older generation or the youth of today
Views and actions defined by age
Defined by age - Defined by age

The complacency of middle age
False dignity, moral outrage
Is just the same as the teenage rebel pose
Another source of money making
Exploitation - manipulation
A gap is nothing, an empty space
In your mind defined by age
Fill the space - Defined by age
Fill the space - Defined by age


Zero Again

The end of the line where zero's the sign
A hole in the mind, deaf, dumb and blind
Nothing to cry not even an eye
Zero again the end of no end

A vacant space lacks a familiar face
An unknown face finds a vacant space
The memory killed by a hole soon filled
Zero again there remain no remains

Death has begun and Jesus loves no-one, no-one


Bubble

You have a bubble of hope you live inside, you're surrounded by tokens and symbols of hope.
It's your choice O.K., but I won't follow, smug in your bubble of hope.

You have a bubble of hope you live inside, you're surrounded by tokens and symbols of hope.
It's your choice O.K., but I won't follow, smug in your bubble of hope.

You have a bubble of hope you live inside, you're surrounded by tokens and symbols of hope.
It's your choice O.K., but I won't follow, smug in your bubble of hope.

Pop goes the bubble, the rubber bubble of hope, choke on hope.
I'll shrivel outside de-hydrated pride, seeps from a glue bag, society's glue bag smothers.

Pop goes the bubble, the rubber bubble of hope, choke on hope.
I'll shrivel outside de-hydrated pride, seeps from a glue bag, society's glue bag smothers.
