Halo Holiday 03:13
lyrics

I am a glide bomb and I am diving And it is awesome The way I’m spending my holiday I think I’ve got some, something inviting Please come and have some Instead of standing in my way Two stories different, can’t tell the difference Blood on the pavement Don’t wanna wait ‘till another day Stuck in basement. It’s my own basement And it’s a hot hole And yet I call this holiday Awaiting impact. Nomore descending But still it’s awesome The way I’m spending my holiday Soon it is over and I am grateful But still I got some And you keep standing in my way

Goodmorning sun that shines I whispered in your ear I sneak up from behind And wipe away your tear You can take me for a ride A ride into the wave Swallowed by the tide Together chained as slaves Speak the words I long to hear Touch this soul of mine Heading for the last frontier Can you brake me Goodmorning sun that shines I whispered in your ear I sneak up from behind And wipe away your tear Speak the words I long to hear Touch this soul of mine Heading for the last frontier Can you brake me

Lust For Longboats 05:35

Anything lost can be found again except for time wasted Everything dies but it all depends on how it once tasted Battles and boats picture my dreams The smell of fear is so real Inbred but born with a proud ancient gene that won’t remain concealed Beyond the ability to normalise - Asleep while wide awake - I’m watching the streets with my bloodshot eyes Ignoring the chances I take I’m longing for longboats - I’m longing to stray - To journey further on - So sad yet so happy - I must sail away To search behind the sun Blazing with glory I smell only red My corpse has been replaced Familiar sensation I feast upon dread My turn to seize the day - Mixing a drink of my own special blend The fungus turn me on Revealing the visions I can’t comprehend The tales of a past long gone This is not a drill I need someone to kill I lust for longboats Dragonheads and sails I lust for longboats With a mighty sail that’ll sail me away To conquer the unknown - To rape to slaughter and to loot - I rape monks and nuns and hound dogs with guns - But still I’m just an inbred viking son of a gun - But I’m trying so hard to hang on to my nun - Mushroom clouds in my head - Fungus in my rum - I’m just trying to be someone Triumphant days with my sword and shield My leatherskull’s steaming My lungs were made to cry victory I want to dream again

Standard Procedures 04:20

Watch the changes in this face Use it as a mirror Words are turning visual They’re becoming clearer In the corner of my eye it begins again A whole new world is taking form Ready to descent Observe in silence when I act Open wide and swallow Watch the mirror face the fact Behind the mask you’re hollow You try to change you rearrange You try to make it work And in the end you realize You’re a fucking jerk In the corner of my eye I see the curtain fall So this is where I turn to anything at all Freddie was just a monk. He heard only bells ringing in his head. The funny notes made him flunk. The choir stopped singing. They’re counting blue. Anything comes to those. The Cosmonks in afterburn inhaling Donnys doze. Petting his private parts. Roaring to the gods. Graceland at dinnertime. Grace eternally rotting. Rodgers and Hammerstein still remembering Lily Marlene in rhyme. You are my bloody rose. I long for you. I wanna open you up. I wanna dive into. I’m not straight up. I heal. I heal. I cover up all the bones of you that I steal. You’re my thing. And I wanna be a little tiny thought in your head. I wanna crawl inside of you. And feel what you’ve got. What have you got? Nothing. I don’t see anything there. I see nothing but the whore in your face. And I wanna kill you. I wanna rape you. I want to slaughter your ass. Motherfucker...

Album liner notes: "These songs are made and played by Cosmonks. They were among the 11 songs picked for the first of two recording sessions, that eventually forged the debut album ‘Cosmonks In Afterburn’. Both sessions were recorded and produced by Steen Boel at Cello Studio, Aalborg DK in the summers of 1996 and 1997 - On to 2” analogue tape. Mastered at Puk Studio by Peter Iversen. This is the first light of day these songs see and they shine a light back to Nearly Died Laughing, the band that became Cosmonks. Heartful thanks to all of you involved!"
