Kato the mad scientist - The Vostok
Here’s the story of a sick man
Inner-struggle is crushing his soul
His dead soul
Doctor Kato seems like he’s deaf and dumb
But look through his eyes, you’ll know he lies
They tell him « dumb-ass faggot you ought to stop being down
Get yourself a tongue, or give a smile
Give a smile »
Broken, he belongs to the wrecks you fear
Retreated in a lab like a fiend, for now
Out in the streets, the mad professor growls
His straitjacket on, he’s fled his four walls
Quiet and shy, Kato would always try
To leave the dark, to let this all spark
The urge to control the clones is strong, no one
Would escape his world of science and evil
Broken, he belongs to the wrecks you fear
Retreated in a lab like a fiend, for now
Frozen are the heart and the soul
Asylum to keep ‘em under control
Broken, broken, broken, broken, broken,
The fall
The fall X7

Creating the clones - The Vostok
Here is the one that Kato chose to breed
The strain of all, he will be
Here is the one that Doctor chose to feed
Once and for all, Hiroshi
Ten brothers are, clones spawned to fulfill
The pride of a scientist
No time to grow, entire life to feel
No pain at all, like a freak
Fighting, transforms senses
Hatred with no genes of pain
Fighting, transforms senses, he knows
Hatred with no genes of pain

The Foreman - The Vostok
USSR 1994 the soviets strike a deal
In a secret, in a mischief
They send the clones to freeze
Running on control
Siblings, off they go
I’ve been away son, out in the gale to see them carrying away
This heavy stuff, drilling into the icy ground till dawn
Shut them away son, lost in the frost hell me how they escaped
This freezing cold and never-ending polar misery
Vostok base 1994, the Iruka scientists
Get their slaves to do the job
They’re four feet tall, who cares?
Running on control
Siblings, off they go
I’ve been away son, out in the gale to see them carrying away
This heavy stuff, drilling into the icy ground till dawn
Shut them away son, lost in the frost hell me how they escaped
This freezing cold and never-ending polar misery
When the pain of a foreman
Becomes overwhelming then
I can see who is insane
In the downfall of my brains
I can feel the beast in me I can see who is insane.

85th Parallel - The Vostok
Getting all this bloody drudgery done
We pray for hell's sake
Pushing us into the revolt
We're made to break the gate
Digging in the ice to extract oil
We fake to serve the base
No submissiveness 'cause our mental distress
Fuels our hate !!
Toilworn are our hands
When will be time to draw straws ?
When will be time to risk this great escape ? X2
Planning to free us the next morning
We'll crush these concrete walls
No slaves, no clones no chains anymore
Under 85th parallel

Iruka's slaves - The Vostok
Feeling, feeling like I’m God
Breathing, breathing like I’m God
On my own, on my own X2
Morning comes, lights the hall
I watch the show, they won’t grow old
I feel young as they are my blood and bones
Blood and bones
Treating, treating them like rats
Breeding, breeding, them in labs
For their own goood, this is good X2
Morning comes, lights the hall
I watch the show, they won’t grow old
I feel young as they are my blood and bones X2
Iruka's slaves are doomed to stare out over these snowfields
When the ice begins to thaw…
Iruka 's slaves belong to the frozen world, and in this white desert
They dwell //
