ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF LYRICS
Verse
Take me to the Friday market
Sell me off, be done with the likes of me
Put me in a crappy shopping cart
Push me off the highest skyscraper
Chorus
Dead are the days when I was your love
Gone are the days when I was your love
Vintage are the days I was your love
Beware! The promises of new generation.
Verse
Take me to the Friday market
She tells me your song has no benefit
Sell me off, cheaper than a chicklet
Put me in the middle of a whale’s stomach
Chorus
Dead are the days when I was your love
Gone are the days when I was your love
Vintage are the days I was your love
Beware! The promises of new generation.
ARABIC LYRICS
Verse I
ودّيني ودّيني سوق الجمعة
بيعيني بيعيني من كل امثالي بتفتكّين
حطّيني حطّيني في عربانة سكراب
دزّيني دزّيني من أعلى ناطحة سحاب
CH
أيام ماتت أيام ماتت كنت لك حبيب
أيام فاتت أيام ماتت كنت لك حبيب
كنت لك حبيب vintage أيام
دير بالك من وعود الجيل الجديد
Verse II
ودّيني ودّيني سوق الجمعة
تقول لي تقول لي أغنيتك ما منها فائدة
بيعيني بيعيني أرخص من الكتكوت
حطّيني حطّيني في وسط بطن حوت

Verse
My morning coffee is the color of the night
What it lacks, though, is a lunar disc whispering ceased since yesterday.
Chorus
Everyday, it’s bitter
VII
My morning coffee tastes like pain
A coffee-flavored piece of chocolate.
My morning coffee is the color of the night
The sun sets in my cup
Chorus
Everyday, it’s bitter

Verse I
بلون الليل قهوتي الصباحية
ينقصها قرص قمر غاب همسه عن أمس

مُرةٌ / كل يوم
Verse II
بطعم الألم قهوتي الصباحية
قطعة شيكولاتة بنكهة البن
بلون الليل قهوتي الصباحية
تنكسف الشمس في فنجاني

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
V
A magazine with never-ending pages
It contains adverts which chase me around
They caught up to me and tripped me up
Search for your ground
Hands on your heart
CH
Come along above love
Music that protects us
Music to protect us from our inner demons
A band that lifts us from skyscrapers.
V II
A building without an infrastructure
An ad without an ending
They finish what I have to say, as if expressing my thoughts.
Stabilize my body
With my hands are on my heart.
CH
We built a high fence
A shadow protecting us from our neighbors’ evils
A band protecting us from our inner demons
BRIDGE
CH
We built Kuwaisiana.
We built Kuwaisiana.
Songs which distance us from our inner demons
A wall protecting us from the sins of America
ARABIC LYRICS
Verse I
مجلّة صفحاتها ما تخلص
فيها إعلانات تلحقني
وُصَلّتي تشان تعرقلني
دوّر ارضك / إيدك على قلبك
CH I
تعالو فوق الهواء
موسيقى تحمينّا من شرور نفوسنا
فرقة ترفعنا من ناطحات سحّاب
VII
بناية بدون هيكل
دعاية بدون نهاية
تكمّل كلامي, كأنها تعبّرعن أفكاري.
يوّد گشّي
إيدي على قلبي
CH II
بنينا سور عالي
ظلٌ يحمينا من شرور جيرانا
فرقة تحمينا من شرور نفوسنا
CH III
بنينا كويزيانا
أغاني تبعدنا من شرور نفوسنا
طوفة تحمينا من ذنوب أمريكا

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
V
The recycling of our personalities
Begins from a moment of recovery.
No going back after our doors are opened
Break them down for eternity.
CH
“Sufi Islam we don’t want it.
Throw them out, from their arms and legs.
Throw them out, from their legs and arms.”
We cut the breath of the Arabian Peninsula
VII
The pressure of the world mounted up on us
The natives of this land beat the shit out of us
The pressure of the world broke our hands
Arrows deepening in our bodies
CH
VIII
“We don’t want to return their salam.
Pleasantries wasted on dead hearts.
Man, don’t tell us about their philosophies.
Throw them out of the country right away!”
CH
ARABIC LYRICS

إعادة تكوين شخصياتنا
تبدأ من لحظة إنتعاشها
لا عودة بعد فتح ابوابنا
تكسير فيها للنهاية
CH
إسلام الصوفي مانابي
گطوهم برّة ريل او إيد
گطوهم برة إيد او ريل
عيدوا التاريخ من جديد

ضغط الدنيا گام علينا
آل الديرة غسلوا شراعنا
ضغط الدنيا كسّر إيدنا
أسهم تتعمق في أجسامنا
CH
إسلام الصوفي مانابي
گطوهم برّة ريل او إيد
گطوهم برة إيد او ريل
گطعنا نفس الخليج

ما ودنى نرد على سلامهم
مجاملات على قلب ميت
لا تحكيلنا عن فلسفاتهم
حذف برة الديرة ريل او إيد
CH
إسلام الصوفي مانابي
گطوهم برّة ريل او إيد
گطوهم برة إيد او ريل
قطعنا نفس الخليج

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
VI
Purify my green leaves
Wash away the dust of pride.
Are you the most beautiful or the Goddess of Rain’s daughter?
CH
Nada - our neighbor’s daughter
Nada - she’s a lake in a drop of water.
VII
Nada, pure & transparent
You torture me with your sweetness
I can not taste you
CH
Nada - our neighbor’s daughter
She’s a lake in a drop of water.
ARABIC LYRICS
VI
طهري أوراقي الخضراء
إغسليها من غبار الكبرياء
وانزحي عليها ببطء
حسناء هي أنت؟ أم بنت إله الَمطر؟
CH
ندى بنت جيراّنا \ ندى بحيرة في قطرة ماء
VII
نقية شفافة ندى
عذبتني بعذوبتك
لا أ ستطيع تذوقك
CH
ندى بنت جيراّنا \ ندى بحيرة في قطرة ماء

Virgin
04:45

Give me a joystick | Take me to warships
I’m a virgin | with a pink gun
The last silo | wants to lay low
Upgrade police force | Dressed in camo
A hand floating around killing people.
A drone flying around, stealing land.
------
A hand floating around killing people
A drone buzzing around, carpet bombing
I want to be free from the violence that surrounds me
Give me the key to the oxygen in the coffin.
Ambushed by our nature
History repeating itself
Spread your legs, there’s no place like home
On a pornoshoot
Ambushed by our nature
I'm a virgin
in a VR headset
Show me the army
occupy me

VI
Gosh it’s hard to replace
The innocence of a child
Hypnotized by the land
That was once shining bright
The weights of time broke apart
Put every bond in the fog
Blurry lights, a signs of time
Brought to you by the men in power.
CH | I stay way in the south / I stick right by the water
VII
Take me back to the basics
Oh youth speak to me again
I’m in a hurry, such a hurry
To find my identity
CH | I stay way in the south / I stick right by the water
VIII
Oh I’m so far from that place
Where my heart does operate
Yes I yearn to replace
the lies of men in power.

VI
Door-to-door she talked to / Refugees without a refuge
Between a hard and a good life / A hotel and a war crime
People watching all day / Writing down everything they say
Elders kissed her forehead / Children knew her name
CH
My bloody Valentine / in love with Palestine
VII
Driving down with a young boy
Swallow salt with their hands
Haunted by that moment, they say “kill them all with lasers!”
CH
My bloody Valentine / in love with Palestine
VIII
Heavy skin on her eyelids
Sun between the clouds is thick
The darkness of their robots
They’ll take your land with cold eyes
My bloody Valentine in love with Palestine

Verse I
We’re driving
past the deepest fear I have.
Rejection tastes so sweet.
I rebuild my confidence.
Turn to your baba.
And ask him for your hand
He ripped one into the curb.
And we laughed until it hurt.
CHORUS
I will wait for you | Will you be waiting for me?
Till your daddy says yea, your mama say yea
Till your siblings say yea, and all your friends say yea
VERSE II
You’re searching for answers
Memorizing the book
So you cut me from your life
I rebuild my confidence
Turn to your mama
I see you in her eyes
Ignoring the alarm
The deepest fear I have
CHORUS
I will wait for you | Will you be waiting for me?
Till your daddy says yea, your mama say yea
Till your siblings say yea, and all your friends say yea!
VIII
I’m down by the Quarter | Find a second line
Get myself in front of them & I’m out to space again.
I’m searching for answers | Clawing through the parade
Get myself to somewhere new & I’m by myself again.
I hear the ocean whispering to me
You’re so special but I’m so sorry
Find myself out holding hands by the levee
Extra special, anti-social.
