THE BEAST OF THE REVELATION

You have even fooled some wise people
But you will not fool us any longer
We're going to see your slightest move
And respond to your lies with hate

The Beast of the Revelation
The Beast of the Revelation

You go to eat in South America
And then vomit on Europe
And here, the people wants to swim in it
And to get to take part in your lies

The Beast of the Revelation
The Beast of the Revelation



This song came out sometime in the late 80s, and I guess the "Beast" of the lyrics has something do with the Reagan administration of the US...

The lyricist and vocalist Jouni Mömmö was a schizophrenic who died a few years later of a prescription drug overdose (RIP).

The list in the beginning of the video, presumably written by Mömmö, reads

"TOP TEN DISEASES

1. Schizophrenia
2. Schizophrenia (Group IV)
3. Paranoia
4. Anorexia nervosa
5. Hashish psychosis
6. Manic depressivity
7. Fundamentalism
8. Star Wars (SDI?) [indecipherable]
9. Delirium tremens
10. Obesity

The list: Got them all except..." (rest missing)

They told him, "you'll put the khakis on"
You'll get in the front line
You'll get in the front line
And you'll become a hero

Himself, he doesn't talk much
The uniform doesn't fit him
The unifrom doesn't fit him
And the boots are a torture

The anthem that they taught him
Is fascist, and tears come to his eyes
Is fascist, and tears come to his eyes
The anthem that they taught him

Noone ever wrote to him
At nights, he woke up early
At nights, he woke up early
And he kept talking about a mistake

Someday, he got wasted
He threw the unifrom away
He threw the uniform away
and cried by himself

The anthem that they taught him
Is fascist, and he's ashamed of crying anymore
Is fascist, and he's ashamed of crying anymore
The anthem that they taught him

[Bereta_Eder]

Someday, they'll come and tell you
That they believe in you, that they love you
and that they want you

Keep your mind on the child
Lock the door with the key
They are lying

Someday, "knowledgable" people will come
"logicians" and "men of letters"
to convince you

Keep your mind on the child
Lock the door with the key
They'll sell you out

And when the times come
That the candle will be extinguished
Inside the storm

Defend the child
because if the child is saved
There is hope
