FLY AWAY FROM THE NIGHTMARE
I am a not so young steel worker
Fooled by incompetent management
and corrupt unions
Not to mention government
who raided pension funds and stole
our retirements
I have no time, time, time
To cry, cry in the warfare
I'll take a plane, plane, plane
To fly, fly away from the nightmare
We are religiously tamed
to believe that the only freedom
is this boredom
And that we should be ready,
lay our lives down for noble principles,
of social betrayals
In return our government stands
for our dedication and service,
for justice
At the same time the joke
we call the system murders
millions of people a year

You Won't Ever Sail Home

Angel, coming in the night
Angel, bringing in the light
She's falling from the sky
She's nothing you can buy
Oh, you will never sail home
No, you won't ever sail home
Once you've been in her pleasure dome
Brother, keep walking your path
Brother, she's hot like a mercury bath
To never know she exists would be better
Before was different than after
Sister, you will be caught too
Sister, you're gonna get blue
Cos you're also gonna love her
You'll think there is nothing better

Rock'n'Riot in Town

ROCK'N'RIOT IN TOWN
We are mixing blues and country
And we love to play it rocky
Preparing the coming insurrection
It's a pleasure to make the connection
You cannot shake it, and we will convince you
We are the enemy inside
And we're singing good night white pride
Each day is a new rendez-vous
Tell the capitalist taboo
You cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you
It's rock, rock, rock
It's riot, riot, riot
It's rock'n'riot
It's rock'n'riot
Rock'n'roll fellow workers
Rock'n'riot's in town
We are all freedom fighters
We know in union there is power
All for me, all for you, one for all,
United we stand, divided we fall
You can't fight alone, we will support you

The Main Enemy
03:31

This best friend inside me
Is asking me some questions
How do you think what you think
Are you really free,
Or is it just an impression ?
Why wear black instead of pink ?
I don't wanna serve domination
Command or obey, same slavery
Don't wanna be a fox or a lion
Just free myself from the main enemy
I understand that rat race
Is inflicted religion
I think we all deserve better than this
I create a new space
By starting deconstruction
With a happy Rock'n'Roll catharsis
The Society of the Spectacle
Alters perceptions
But daily revolt wakes them up
Industry of babble
Feeds globalization
Our anger beats it up

HE WHO LAUGHS BEST LAUGHS LAST
I met many rebels
In my goddamn life
Strutting like peacocks in a yard
They were full of certainties
That they spread with hostility
Now they're just full of bitterness and lard
Yesterday's rebels
Some were friends of mine
But what the hell have they become
They disappeared so fast
From the future from the past
He who laughs best laughs last
Pretending to be leaders
They always claimed to know
Who was good and who was bad
We saw these posers later
The goddamn crummy wankers
Selling out their old comrades
Greedy shopkeepers
Or servile ticket-takers
That's what they all are now
They have traded their illusions
For a square situation
Sayin' they're just followin' the flow

The Angry Cats Paris, France
When Fred created The Angry Cats in 2010, he had already lived several lives as singer and guitar player with hundreds of
gigs, dozens of hours in recording studios, experiences of all kinds and a strong musical culture. Influenced by Rock’n’Roll,
Punk-Rock, Texas-blues, Industrial Music or Stoner Rock, the band’s sound is very personal, both classic and doped by an energy of revolt.
