Lyrics

We've been around for a long time and in that time we've written a lot of songs, some in our previous incarnation as Bikini Black Special, and then even more as Zvilnik - so if you fancy a browse through lyrics old and new, fill your boots. Dig into the back catalogue of satirical sinister speculative cabaret, a fusion of science fiction, political satire, grotesque comedy, and theatrical storytelling that's been built up over actual decades.

Everything You Know Is Wrong

There are two sides to every tale
Two sides to every face
All pictures have a frame
Hiding stuff outside the space
I'm not a bad person
But I'm not a good person
I am just a person.
Kindly explain how you've seen my kind before
How you'll guess all of my crimes
How you can predict my words
How you're used to my type

Everything you know is wrong
Everything you think is wrong
Everything you feel is wrong
Everything you think you know... is wrong

Every body has a skeleton
Everybody has a history
Everyone has miseries and
Mistresses and mysteries
It's inconceivable
To call me irredeemable
When I'm faintly saintly
And generally agreeable
But I see your mind's made up
I see you're horrified
You ignore the good parts and
Choose to see the darker side

Everything you know is wrong
Everything you think is wrong
Everything you feel is wrong
Everything you think you know... is wrong

What makes you think you know me when I barely know myself?
What makes you think you know me when I barely know myself?
What makes you think you know me when I barely know myself?
What makes you think you know me when I barely know myself?
