×1) MIDNIGHT DESTRUCTION
Nikola Kandoussi // Nikola Kandoussi

„Roll me a rollie
then roll me over“
My tears were falling
but I recovered
One more beer
occupied stool at the bar
by a fool
drawing queer
writing down words to sing
Come say Hi to my inspiration
Say Hello to goddess creation
Come and meet the mystery fraction
Come say Hi to Midnight Destruction
Let’s get those bastards
the best ones ever
five minutes late
take them down together
You have my back
And I swear to have yours
wear black jacket, white stripes
check my brain, yeah it’s fine
Introducing my inspiration
Here she is, the goddess creation
Inner soulmate, mystery fraction
Come say Hi to Midnight Destruction
Should have known better
we don’t fancy mess
Demons are marching
we couldn’t care less
for all those that dare to try
Cheat and lie to us
Here’s an advice
We say you should think twice
Come say Hi to my inspiration
Say Hello to goddess creation
Inner soulmate, mystery fraction
Come say Hi to Midnight Destruction
Midnight Destruction

×2) LOVERBOY (PSYCHO)
Nikola Kandoussi / The Agony // Nikola Kandoussi

Keep writing poems, baby
who reads them anyway?
So full of yourself, are we?
A package full of‚ great!‘
Seemingly smart
fancy in bed
Go be their little prince charming
the best they‘ve ever had
You, should just go away
You are arrogant loverboy
disposable joy-toy
You, get out of my way
You will never fool me,
I know you‘re sweet-looking psycho
They can‘t get enough now, baby
how slowly you go on them
Of how you feel their bodies
make their wishlist come true
Drink naked wine
nail them so good
Oh I know what you did there
I can see right through you
You, should just go away
You are arrogant loverboy
disposable joy-toy
You, get out of my way
You will never fool me,
I know you‘re sweet-looking psycho

×3) SHOOT
Nikola Kandoussi // Nikola Kandoussi

Welcome to my freak show
Only the weirdest can survive
I‘ll teach you a lesson
You are the only one you‘ve got
And betrayal happens to come once in a while
Here‘s a gun and here‘s a bullet
Standing still
Why don‘t you do it?
No one‘s gonna hear‚ cause no one is near
Only you and I
Take the gun, reload with bullet
I will wait, hope you won‘t do it
Everytime you lied, we‘ve done this many times
Alone in the night
Shoot me, shoot me
Go on do it!
Shoot me, shoot me
Go on do it!
Welcome to my freak show
Guess it is way too late to cry
But this is the last call
Cannot stand any more of lies
And if I‘m not enough, I‘ll leave with head up high
This is the last call
This is the last call

×4) HOW DO YOU WANT ME
Nikola Kandoussi / The Agony // Nikola Kandoussi

Whatever you want me to do, I will do
Whatever you want me to say, I will say
I am the servant of your twisted ways
Part of the machine with mission to waste
And when redundant, I‘ll surrender willingly
to your gillotine that will kill me, I will obey happily, so
How? How? How do you want me?
I, I want you anyway
How? How? How do you want me?
I, I want you anyway
Wherever you want me to go, I will go
Whatever you want me to think, I will think
I‘ve been destined to carry out your will
I shook the devil‘s hand and signed the deal
You know some dough makes me do anything
There were times when I was human, now I‘m puppet
on a string, so
How? How? How do you want me?
I, I want you anyway
How? How? How do you want me?

×5) IT AIN‘T OVER
Nikola Kandoussi / The Agony //Nikola Kandoussi / Katie Skatie

Stay down,
don’t play – obey
Try to fight
I’m still in sight
You are lying
You will see
I will make you
run back to me
You are leaving
Not for long
I dare you to listen to this song
It ain’t over til I say so,
it ain’t over, I won’t let you go
You belong
by my side
Won‘t take long
You are mine
Don’t you hide it
Fuck your pride
You still want me
though you denied
You can’t end it
right after start
I want you to listen to this part
It ain’t over til I say so,
it ain’t over, I won’t let you go

×6) RADIO SILENCE
Nikola Kandoussi / Tereza Pšenčíková / The Agony // Nikola Kandoussi

Come, running, fascinated by the shining light
Bright, stunning, temptation teasing you tonight
Subtle form of deprivation
Gone the fiery queen
Yearning comes with desperation
but it will set you free
Robbed has been the mighty fortress
All down and burnt to dust
All the things we didn’t say today will end up lost
Over and over
neverending game
Radio silence
for another day
Over and over
forever the same
Radio silence
Radio silence
again, again
enter radio silence again
again, again,
enter radio silence again
Fly, laughing, brightness one touch away if you will
Still, longing, but consequences of desire kill
Subtle form of deprivation
Gone the fiery queen
Yearning comes with desperation
but it will set you free
Robbed has been the mighty fortress
All down and burnt to dust
All the things we didn’t say today will end up lost
Over and over
neverending game
Radio silence
for another day
Over and over
forever the same
Radio silence
Radio silence
again, again
enter radio silence again
again, enter radio silence

×7) SECRETS
Nikola Kandoussi / The Agony // Nikola Kandoussi

You keep on asking me what’s wrong
You keep on asking what is taking me so long
To come and see you, to find the time
What can I say, if you knew the truth, it would make
you cry
If you only knew,
if you knew, you’d run away
If you only knew,
you would run away from me
I look into your eyes
still hiding all my secrets
You have yours, I have mine
and I intend to keep it
’Cause what we play
is just a game
tomorrow’s another day
I won’t tell you my secrets
won’t tell you my secrets
No way
It’s sad to see you so confused
half lost, half pissed off, feeling used
I’d let you near me if I could
Giving you hell, I know, but it’s for your own good
I hate what I do
I hate what I do
do to you
I hate what I do
so why don‘t you hate it too?
I look into your eyes
still hiding all my secrets
You have yours, I have mine
and I intend to keep it
’Cause what we play
is just a game
tomorrow’s another day
I won’t tell you my secrets
won’t tell you my secrets
No way

×8) VIDEO ARCADE
Nikola Kandoussi / The Agony // Nikola Kandoussi / Katie Skatie

It‘s dark in old streets
Cold wind and fallen leave
Down to a hidden place
that has seen better days
Keep walking nowhere
Revolting fear and gloom
The stifling silence
Swinging all around you
You‘ve had a few shots
Now helpless, out of reach
Hell‘s closer than you thought
and full of blinking screens
Your inner demons
Remains of cigarette smoke
and dignity goes
floating through glory holes
If you wanna smell the seed then come in
If you wanna see the creeps then come in
If you wanna feel the sleaze then come in
This is where you get the chills
Your royal highness
Enter your favourite booth
Shake off your shyness
No one here cares ‚bout you
Please insert one coin
Press button, play the art
Sit down and enjoy
The tales that get you hard
If you wanna smell the seed then come in
If you wanna see the creeps then come in
If you wanna feel the sleaze then come in
This is where you get the chills
Come play a filthy game (you‘re comin‘)
Sick video arcade (you‘re comin‘)
The lost souls‘ hideaway (comin‘)
I don‘t wanna stay
I don‘t wanna stay

×9) PRAGUE CITY
Katie Skatie / The Agony // Katie Skatie

Wake up, stroll down
find a bar, find your money
More lights, more beer
leave your wife, grab the bunny
Drink up, scrounge more
expect the afternoon sunny
The day’s yours, roll it up
after all the workers are funny
What if you sold her phone
would you get enough for the machines?
The resolution is tight
stay high for the rest of the night
Never sober up, don’t let the morning get shitty
– Welcome to Prague City
Never sober up, don’t let the morning get shitty
– Welcome to Prague City
And even when you leave the bar
you’ll never change your mind
The lights are on, your bros are out,
with a lot more of their kind
Don’t leave out a chance to throw up
on somebody’s shoes
A place to love, a place to hug
the cops can kiss your ass in the city of Prague

×10) SWITCH
Nikola Kandoussi // Nikola Kandoussi

Open the door, cos here I come
To my world, land of sinful dreams
And today, I will play
I‘m the dirtiest of queens
You are mine, see the chains shine
To me, you signed your body and mind
From now on you‘ll do what I say
don‘t you dare to disobey
Adrenaline pumps through your veins
now you‘ll be able to take, what you had dreamed of
that was pain
Only me, this time and place
The ropes are getting tight
SHUT UP!
Don‘t you know, don‘t you know it‘s too late?
If your wife knew, what would she say?
Tell me how much can you bear?
Now the red line‘s getting near
Beg for more and I‘ll play fair
My ecstasy in your screams
Blood and sweat, we ain‘t done yet
Wanna see your skin cherry red!
From now on you‘ll do what I say
don‘t you dare to disobey
Adrenaline pumps through your veins
now you‘ll be able to take, what you had dreamed of
that was pain
Only me, this time and place
The ropes are getting tight
SHUT UP!
Don‘t you know, don‘t you know it‘s too late?
If your wife knew, what would she say?
