There is no love There is no love There is not even pleasure So why am I doing this? There is confusion I am drowning into illusion This is getting sick This is getting sick Unable to recognize the state of shock Unable to talk Hatred sprouts in silence Rages splashes everywhere It's time to let you down You made my eyes so dry you're just a waste of life I need to break free And go out for a beer I am about to commit A social network suicide There is no love There is no love There is no more communication how can we let this happen? Now give me a A new skin My burning bones just wanna lay down.

I knew it was going to be loud like watching someone scream Security comes through and kicks them out faster than you can say "collision" You wonder if you've made the right decision I can say without hesitation: you're special and unique, now please stop we are wasting our youth together We must confront our assumptions, and forget about about virtuosic masturbation Music is only clever manipulation of tones and rhythmic changes Music is only clever dilapidation of tones with reassuring lyrics Music is almost clever manipulation of tones and rhythmic changes Music is almost clever dilapidation of tones with reassuring lyrics.

It should be OK but it's not and nobody wonders why Tell-tale rabble collector perhaps you should tell us to dramatically reduce the hum It can become much more evident a musician would hear a slight but noticeable hum.

Petit Mot 03:31
Sleep well, my little bird, sleep. Sleep well, my wounded bird. Sleep well, my little bird, sleep. What happened, what happened, tell me what happened, tell me, tell me What happened, what happened, tell me what happened, tell me, tell me Tell me what happened, tell me what happened, tell me, tell me Tell me what happened. Tell me what happened, tell me, tell me, tell me what happened. Sleep well, my little bird, sleep. Sleep well, my wounded bird. Sleep well, my little bird, sleep. Fly, fly, little word.

Bâillons 03:14
20 lunes tapies dans le silence à se rendre invisible 20 lunes écrasées par l'ignorance d'un chroniqueur imbécile Tombé de l'échaffaud Plongé dans un demi coma L'ego a repris son souffle ah!

Black One 02:06
The horse sits in the tree and crows The road is wide but the door is low The black one dances on the beach The hen miaows in the darkest lake The day is red but the fish is dead The black one squats on the beach The snake flutters in heaven's heights The virgin is pale but the pussy shows delight The black one runs on the beach The ram hisses with teeth apart The gust is harsh and the waves dart The black one farts on the beach The sow lays and the cat sows Night is blighted but darkness glows The black one remains remains remains remains on the beach.

credits

released February 1, 2011

All songs composed and performed by Vialka, fermented and percolated by Bob Drake at Studio Midi-Pyrénées in late 2010 - or was "Black One" an obscure cover-tune recorded live at Bob's sister's house in Elizabeth, Colorado? Vialka is Marylise Frecheville (percussion, keyboard and voice) and Eric Boros (baritone guitar, trumpet and voice); the stylophone solo was skilfully executed by Mr Drake in person. Design and layout by Anne Gally.
