FAN THE FLAMES OF DISCONTENT
Stunned with infotainment
And stuffed with cheap enjoyments
Submissive crowds of loosers
Just dream to be consumers
Their willpower is gone
If they ever had some
That's what makes us angry
And sometimes cheap and nasty
We burn the fabric of consent
We fan the flames of discontent
We burn the fabric of consent
We fan the flames of discontent
We know there is a better life
And we're ready for the strife
Creating situations
At our conditions
We're also reading books
And ousting media crooks
We want to be the rebels
Who scupper the gears with pebbles
The best way to be free
Is to build our own society
Where our rules are examples
And rights are never trampled
Our goal is equality
Our strength is in solidarity
We fight with our own weapons
Willpower and action

Olvidado

OLVIDADO
Chico was as cheery as a foca
When on his nose he had un bola
He loved to play the pandereta
But he was a better trompetista
He dreamed of becoming an artista
But ended up an olvidado
Olvidado, olvidado
He wanted to become the king of the barrio
Olvidado, olvidado
But Chico died lonely and desesperado
Chico rejoined the revolución
Wishing for himself a better situación
He plundered the grave of Ricardo
And betrayed every compañero
He dreamed of becoming a gran hero
But ended up an olvidado
Chico began to sell cerveza
And also mucho café de Columbia
He had always loved shining oro
And was glad to count every escudo
He dreamed of becoming a bandolero
But ended up an olvidado

I Will Not Touch You

I WILL NOT TOUCH YOU (unless you ask me too)
As it sometimes happens, I was hanging out in a bar
As in some fictions, a beauty entered like a star
There were twenty pairs of lurid eyes
Analyzing all her sizes
Breath was short, the air was hot
But come on guys, she's not for you...
When she says yes,
you should know that she really means yes
But when she says no,
you should know that she really means no
She won't be touched by you, unless she asks you to
As it often happens, heavy jokes began to spout
As in such a situation, a buttface forgot to doubt
But as an answer to his fevered hand
She said 'you're gonna eat the sand'
She gave him a clout, and ran him out
I told you guys, she's not for you...
When she says yes,
you should know that she really means yes
But when she says no,
you should know that she really means no
She won't be touched by you, unless she asks you to
As I sometimes dare
I invited her for a drink
'What are you doing here
We should go somewhere else, I think'
She told me that she was looking for a funny place
She could take me to a much better space
We laughed together, the air was better
I tell you guys, she's maybe for me
So I told her
When you say yes,
I really know that you mean yes
But when you say no,
I really know that you mean no
I will not touch you, unless you ask me to

Train Kept A-Rollin'

I caugh a train,
I met a dame,
she was a hepster
and a real gone dame
she was pretty
from New York City,
and we trucked on
down that old Fairlane
with a heave and a ho,
Well, I just couldn't let her go,
Get along, Sweet little woman
Get along, and be on your way,
Get along, sweet little woman,
Get along, and be on your way
With a heave, and a ho
Well, I just couldn't let her go,
Well, the train kept a rollin' all night long,
the train kept a rollin' all night long,
the train kept a rollin' all night long,
the train kept a rollin' all night long,
with a heave and a ho
well, I just couldn't let her go.
We made a stop
in Albuquerque
she must have thought
I was a real gone joke,
we got off the train,
at El-Paso,
her looks were so good, Jack
I couldn't let her go
Get along
Well, I just couldn't let her go

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.
