Паразит

Я поэт, книги сожгли
Я актриса, театр снесли
Я художник, отрезали руки,
Я тунеядка и я умираю от скуки
Голодом заморить бездельников наглых
Батьке в карман кладите, тунеядцы
Я умру честной паразиткой
Лучше под мостом, чем за решеткой
I am a poet, they burned down my books
I am an actor, they demolished my theater
I am a painter, they cut off my hands
I am a parasite and I am dying of boredom
Let those lowlifes starve to death
Give all your money to the big daddy
I will die an honest parasite
Rather under a bridge than behind bars

In April 2015 Belarus dictator Alexander Lukashenka signed Decree No.3, a law obliging unemployed individuals to pay taxes as "social parasites." His understanding was that such a law could unify the people against "parasites" living on minimal welfare and thereby unofficially help the declining economy of the country.
Ultimately and fortunately this sparked a chorus of outrage in the civil population. After thousands protested it the decree was suspended in March 2017 and abolished in January 2018.
The ideas behind this law remain not only in the heads of belorussian officials, but in a lot of regressive western politicians though.
We wont't have it. We will fight such repression tooth & nail.

Однажды президент - президент навсегда
Однажды своровал, и ты вот навсегда
Однажды президент - президент навсегда
Немного геноцида, и ты тиран навсегда
Once you’re president, you’re always Mr. President
Once you steal, you’re always a thief
Once you’re president, you’re always Mr. President
A little bit of genocide and they call you a tyrant

In March 2019 Nursultan Nazarbayev, kazakh autocrat and leader of the country for almost three decades stepped down after a series of surprisingly persistent protests, "to give way to a new generation" of rulers. While giving away his post as president he got a new job as "Chairman of the Security Council of Kazakhstan" which is just a fancy title and means: He's still the de-facto leader. Vladimir Putin is trying to pull a similar maneuver in the near future. Just wait for it.
We wrote the song to comment on the idiocy to support narcissistic, megalomaniacal strongmen. Kazakhstan renamed the capital after their "former" leader... nuts. Just..nuts.

Nice To Meet You, I Hate You
by Flowers Taped to Pens
supported by 4 fans who also own “Split w/ Barabbas, du förtappade”
There's a charming amateurishness to this record. Sometimes this approach fails ("My Parents' House"); sometimes it succeeds masterfully ("Now I Know"). Musically, this is on the twinkly/emo side of the screamo spectrum. Don't expect to headbang. Grab a pillow and cry instead.
