“Mice-made rocket” (Franco Turra)
1) If you made the grade for this masquerade and begin to wonder
if really cheese is green when the moon can be seen
2) People say it’s fake, such a fairytale, but I’m the beholder
I wanna be aware if emmental is there
*) Then it’s all right, I will find myself the answer
On a budget, on a budget.
3) Getting more hardware along with tinware coming out from nowhere
And special outerwear to survive solar flare
*) But it’s all right. Every space trip is a conquest
That’s my rocket.
Bridge) A little vertigo when you’re up, watching down
I wanna see if earth is flat from above
And when I’m on the moon, and that will happen soon
I’ll taste with mustard
RIT) Mice-made rocket. Mice-made rocket. Mice-made rocket. Ride on!
4) Epic for a rat, matched to any cat, the will of discover
if all that’s always said has something true somewhere
5) Yellow as it glows on any black hole like Marilyn Monroe
With all the universe running from multiverse
*) But it’s all right. I can smell all cheeses’ flavors.
Mice made-rocket. Mice-made rocket.
6) Time’s about to come, Milky Way yum-yum! Call me the Moonwalker!
It was a long crusade. I guess I should be afraid
*) Though it’s all right. All the honors come hereafter
Mice made-rocket.
Bridge) Open your ears, I landed down, on the ground
Now no one cares if earth is flat from above
A mouse is on the moon, and what will happen soon
is just a banquet in a mice-made orbit
RIT) Mice-made rocket. Mice-made rocket. Mice-made rocket. Ride on!
Mice-made rocket. Mice-made rocket. Mice-made rocket. Ride on!
Ride on! Ride on! Ride on! Ride on!

“SLIDECROW” (Franco Turra)
1) Yellow goats on the scene, nothing else anywhere near
All along, in between, there was nothing concrete that way
Ain’t no son of the beast who can slow down the decay
And it’s corny, corny, corny, corny, corny: lies can fly
Neighbors called the police but there’s nothing left on the tray
So get down on your knees, lion’s closing in on his prey
*) There’s no loveliness in a bawdy, bawdy, bawdy, bawdy, bawdy
slidecrow. Slidecrow.
2) When the sky is upset and its colour is beet-red
Let the sermons or creed cover up any full beard
Ain’t no sun, no blacklist in a marathon-free day
Feeling horny, horny, horny, horny, horny, but with style
All decades are postponed until love will manage first place
*) There’s no loveliness in a bawdy, bawdy, bawdy, bawdy, bawdy
slidecrow. Slidecrow.
RIT) Slidecrow. How long? Slidecrow. All prone.
Those broken wings, flying somehow, would paint the clouds if only worlds align
3) The last moan of a leaf, not the waltz of the pixies
All the way monotone as a couple of newly-weds
Let her kiss the damn toad for her physical welfare
Does it sound as a croak if it’s nothing but just foreplay?
There’s a fork in the road and not one of those go somewhere
*) There’s no loveliness in a bawdy, bawdy, bawdy, bawdy, bawdy
slidecrow. Slidecrow.
RIT) Slidecrow has flown. Back home. Alone.
Those broken wings, flying somehow, would paint the clouds if only worlds align
Finale) Ohhhhh, slipping little slidecrow
Ohhhhh, why this darker slideshow?
Ohhhhh, slipping little slidecrow
Ohhhhh, why this darker, getting darker slideshow?
Ohhhhh, slipping little slidecrow

“Who’s the little introvert?” (Franco Turra)
Intro) Who’s the little introvert? Not the attraction of the party, not one to invite
Who’s the little introvert? Someone feeling safe in his own garden of delights
1) The kinda guy who always doesn’t stand out in the crowd
Ain’t no much talk deep down in the landscape of his thoughts. Nothing’s shown
Don’t see negativity in being alone. Yeah!
What’s wrong with daydreaming in a social world?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Please don’t ask, please don’t ask him to join in...
RIT) Who’s the little introvert shaping his own universe?
Not a bogey, not a bogey here to disconcert
Who’s the little introvert running his world in reverse?
He’s as lonely, he’s as lonely, he’s as lonely as anyone can be
Intro) Who’s the little introvert? For the extraverts a pimple to get rid of
Who’s the little introvert? So awkward with the people, too many people
2) Can’t blame as he gets deeper into his shell, overthrown
It’s not a flaw even if more than someone said so. So get lost!
It’s just sensitivity, let him alone. Yeah!
Captive is all dreaming in the social world
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Please don’t ask him, please don’t ask him to join in...
RIT) Who’s the little introvert adding shades in a blank verse?
Without motives, without motives to get hurt again
Who’s the little introvert who’s most likely will observe
All the lonely, all the lonely, all the lonely people’s company?
Who’s the little introvert shaping his own universe?
Not a bogey, not a bogey here to disconcert
Who’s the little introvert running his world in reverse?
Not as lonely, not as as lonely, not as lonely as anyone will be

“(Watch as it falls) The Feathered aeroplane” (Franco Turra)
1) Look, I think you’re a smasher. It’s not meant to just flatter.
You are fucking ingenious, so I guess you’re Aquarius.
I’m amazed to discover all your creativity
*) You’ve got me there! You’re much smarter indeed (x2)
2) I get lost in your paintings, all your songs are breathtaking
Can’t be more entertaining! What’s next? A fantasy?
*) You’ve got me there! It’s something feathery (x2)
To make all fly like birds and bees.
To make all fly with birds and bees.
To levitate in air and forget all
RIT) This happens once in a lifetime. Cool, when all humans will fly, fly, fly.
Dude, cannot wait for the showtime! Drool as the aeroplane bites the sky. Bites the sky.
3) Well, the name is fantastic! Aeroplane is galactic!
Let’s get out of Jurassic. I’m your so proud fanatic.
You did it enigmatic, just like the hunt for wings
*) You’ve got me there! Can’t believe what I see! (x2)
4) You’re the one, you’re the only. Let’s see what you got closely.
No way it can be faulty! You’re making history!
*) You’ve got me there! I really can’t explain
Watch as it falls the feathered aeroplane
Why it can’t fly’s a mistery.
Why it’s reserved to birds and bees?
To levitate in air and lose control
RIT) Flight was a bigger than life try. Cool, but the men were not meant to fly.
You flew too close to the hot sun. That melted the glue. Say the feathers goodbye, goin’ down.
Dude, dreams are going to expire. I know only fools watch the aeroplane fall from sky.
You, birds, are going to deride. Oh God, that was rude. Was it all working overtime?
Good, such an asset quiet sublime. We’ll walk on the moon with a little luck when it’s time.

“About the knowledge of nothingness” (Franco Turra)
1) What I should know is all forgotten
What I could learn is all forbidden
Reality flows into a marshmallow stream of days gone by (of days gone by)
A small dose of cosmic consciousness
2) What I could give is all ill-gotten
What I should do is giving addiction
I wonder if all the information got to the lost-and-found. (yeah)
About the knowledge of nothingness
RIT) And I don’t know if nothing is something or less.
And I talk about the knowledge of nothingness
(and he talks about the knowledge of nothingness)
And I don’t know if those colours will turn into black.
Did you hear about the knowledge of nothingness?
(did you hear about the knowledge of nothingness?)
3) What I should feel is a deception
What I could say was all rewritten
Reality digs through the sandstone of unspoken goodbyes (unspoken goodbyes)
Please gimme a bigger dose of otherness
4) What I could live is a temptation
What I should fight it can’t be beaten
I wonder if all the information got to the lost-and-found. (yeah)
About the knowledge of nothingness
RIT) And I don’t know if nothing is something or less.
Yes, I talk about the knowledge of nothingness
(and he talks about the knowledge of nothingness)
And I don’t know if those colours will turn into black.
Did you hear about the knowledge of nothingness?
(did you hear about the knowledge of nothingness?)
All I do know is something halfway down to death
‘Cause it’s all about the knowledge of nothingness
(‘cause it’s all about the knowledge of nothingness)
Maybe one day I’ll know if it’s heaven or hell
Well, I care about the knowledge of nothingness
I still talk about the knowledge of nothingness (yeah)
I still talk about the knowledge of nothingness (yeah)
I still talk about the knowledge of nothingness (yeah)
I still talk about the knowledge of nothingness (yeah)

“EGO IS A WHEEL” (Franco Turra)
1) It cannot stop to spin, cannot stop to spin
Try the voodoo, man. Hoochie-coochie man

Maybe a kooky dead, maybe a kooky dead

Don’t be choosey, man. Don’t be choosey, man

What is secondhand. All stuff secondhand
12) Get lost in hide and seek, lost in hide and seek
Hooche-coochie man. Welcome to dreamland
RIT) I’m not, I’m not me. Spell LSD
Who’s not, who’s not here is the first seed
13) I feel I wasn’t born ‘til pronounced dead
Ain’t no movie yet. Ain’t no movie yet
14) It made my mind expand. You know where I stand,
Hoochie-coochie man. Hoochie-coochie man.
Hoochie-coochie man. Hoochie-coochie man.

“BUBBLEGUM PSYCHONAUTS WHO DIDN’T MAKE IT” (Franco Turra)
1) Have somebody seen a magic carpet? Why the instructions are written in braille?
There’s so many ways to kick the bucket. Some ignore they have tried already
*) Bubblegum, bubblegum. Out of stock, out of stock.
2) Psylocibin to draw the orbit, required to fool the mental state
Consciousness is set to self discovery
*) Bubblegum, bubblegum. Out of stock, out of stock psychonauts
Rit) Go prepare your shuttle launch. Mindfulness of what’s not shown
Bubblegum psychonauts, some didn’t make it
Shadow people’s life and death, just a journey into their brain
Bubblegum psychonauts who didn’t make it
3) Just too heavy for a magic carpet. Why the instructions didn’t mention that?
Maybe the best way to kick the bucket. Trying to explore what the world is missing
*) Bubblegum, bubblegum. Out of stock, out of stock.
4) Restore the spiritual dimension, forget about identity
Sailor of the spirit left the building
*) Bubblegum, bubblegum. Out of stock, out of stock psychonauts
Rit) Go prepare your shuttle launch. Mindfulness of what’s not shown
Bubblegum psychonauts, some didn’t make it
Shadow people’s life and death, just a journey into their brain
Bubblegum psychonauts who didn’t make it
Go prepare your landing, bro. Caterpillar dreams on loan
Bubblegum psychonauts, some didn’t make it
Search for something beyond death, there’s your journey in no man’s land
Bubblegum psychonauts who didn’t make it

“FEED THE WEED” (Franco Turra)
1) All those people just wanna get high. That’s no lie.
You think mother nature made a blunder if I get a lil’ stoney
2) Draggy nuns in technicolor hype can’t comply
Say aye. Say aye. To stop their heavy snoring
*) What I need is a seed. To exceed the full speed
RIT) Feed the weed. Feed the weed. Feed the weed in my field
Kind of oblivious ‘bout the roundabout
Kind of propitious to let the plant sprout
Feed the weed. Feed the weed. Yeah! Feed the weed. Let it spill
Let me take you down where sky got spellbound
Human spirit, can you dig it? Never let it dry
3) Struggle is the enemy but weed is remedy
Sentimental traps along the roadway are a pledge of fear and loathing
*) Make you feel incomplete. Take a seat. Special treat
4) All those people ask to legalize laughing grass
Say aye. Say aye. Stop their heavy snoring
*) What I need is a seed. To exceed the full speed
VAR.) Sweeter than the marmalade’s disclosure. It’s some x-ray, it’s some x-ray
of feelings inside out. Perfect harmony of sight and sound.
Mother earth keeps warning us to...
