Get to grips with the future Get to grips with the past Time is electric for the sex man in the mask Is your boyfriend a cheater? Can you tell us apart? you're gonna find out with the sex man in the mask Love is such a tender thing But time is running low So are ready to go with the sex man in the mask? Can you handle the virus? Do you think will last... longer than the sex man in the mask? "So, you've run out of beer... take a swig from my flask", said the sex man in the mask Love is such a tinder thing But time is running low So are ready to blow... the sex man in the mask?

Whitipedia 02:44
There's always 2 side to a tale For every win there is a fail Life's too short to be busy When it's easier to delete and then rewrite all of human history Whitipedia, Whitipedia, Whitipedia! Whitipedia, Whitipedia, Whitipedia! Racist media, racist media, racist media... Whitipedia, Whitipedia! I was taught to tell the truth But tell me really what's the point? We live in a post-post-truth world And now it's time to type out all the horrid voices in my mother f****ing head... Whitipedia, Whitipedia, Whitipedia! Whitipedia, Whitipedia, Whitipedia! Racist media, racist media, racist media... Whitipedia, Whitipedia! I asked for the news Not YouTuber views So don't get confused. Your ego's been bruised But your body is fine As your hiding online.

I was born on Thursday On Friday Mum told me Thursday's child has far to go and all the world to see... so go and find yourself the promised land So I got the bus to Stourbridge The train to Birmingham I lived 10 years in London then in Tokyo, Japan... but they fell short of the promised land I'm trying as best I can to go and settle in the promised lands I've been signed to labels I've been on TV I've walked on the red carpet while the paparazzi fleed... 'cos I wasn't from the promised land I took acid in the forest Bikini waterfall A few too many beers lead to my downfall as I headed to the promised land I'm trying just like a man who is hungry for the promised land Dreams are made for dreaming So keep them in your head When you get up out of it Do something else instead of pining for the promised land All of us are wanderers Just trying to fix a wrong Perhaps the promised land is just the journey that we're on but I won't give up on the promised land I tried, but here I am Still no closer to the promised land

The internet Stole our intellect We are the architects of our own downfall But end is nigh Pan to camera 9 Just to stay alive We got to sell ourself so cheap It could have been me Laid bare on the screen It's frankly obscene You're laid bare on the screen It could have been me Laid bare on the screen Who's living the dream? Laid bare on the screen, screen, screen, screen, screen... It could have been me Laid bare on the screen It's frankly obscene You're laid bare on the screen It could have been me Laid bare on the screen Who's living the dream? Laid bare on the screen, screen, screen, screen, screen, screen, screen, screen, screen, screen, screen, screen, screen...

Gobbled Up 04:11
To have met you was good luck But I don't really want to see you gobbled up 'Cos I'm a hungry Joe myself And you are not the kind of thing I'll buy back off the shelf There was a bargain sale today But I don't want to be gobbled up in that way Like a waitress waits for tips I was in the gutter when he went to lick his lips He said... I can give you money And I can give you fame You're dealing with the devil But Johnny is my name We're going to take a picture When you get out your car You're going to see your panties In the newspaper You're gonna make a single You're gonna be my bae You want your independence But you'll do what I say All art is prostitution But not every whore can sing Money is a drug, yeah That destroys everything But it doesn't have to be like this It doesn't have to be like this No, it doesn't have to be like this No it... doesn't have to be like... this Don't wanna see you gobbled up Don't wanna see you gobbled up Don't wanna see you gobbled up

about

Small, but perfectly formed - Fidel gives his thoughts on the corona virus, love, sex, salvation and finding your way in a post-post-truth world.

released June 20, 2020

All songs performed and written by Fidel 500 in his Tokyo "mansion" in Japan. If you know a little about Japan, living in a mansion is not nearly as fancy as it sounds!
