DESCRIPTION:
TREPONEM PAL
INDUSTRIAL METAL • FRANCE
Treponem Pal formed in France in 1986. Their first (Treponem Pal) and third (Excess and Overdrive) albums were produced by Franz Treichler (Young Gods). Their second, Aggravation was produced by Roli Mosimann (Swans, Wiseblood). This album represents a highly focused achievement, combining Neves' bleak worldview and gift for striking lyrics with the band's controlled aggression, comparable to US bands Chrome and Prong. It was their third album, however, which was to prove most popular with fans. Live performances were extraordinary affairs. Their policy of employing two bass players gave them a massive sound, Michel Bassin was a gifted guitarist (he played with Ministry on one of their US tours) and Marco Neves is a physically imposing performer.

You Got What You Deserve

Gimmie a bit of money and let me think I'm strong
Kiss a little bit my ass and I'll never feel wrong
Tell me what I wanna hear and I will know
I've always
Always, always, always
Been perfect
Gimmie a bit of power and I'll crush you
I'll crush you crush you crush you
Just like an insect
Gimmie a bit of money and I'll tell you what's life
Tell me once I'm right and I'll give you back some advice
Oh please let me believe I'm strong
Just cos I deserve it
Be kind with me
Then I'll know you're weak
Let me show you the way the way
Oh please let me show you the way
Let me control you
Tell me I make mistakes and I'll know you're a liar liar
Try to show me what I am
Anyway it's too late
And if you've got nothing left
You got what you deserve you deserve
Try to show me what I am
Anyway it's too late
Oh please just gimmie more my friend
I'll never forget it
Oh please just gimmie more my friend
Or get away from me from me
