Render words
Follow tracks
Tell a joke
Drink water drop by drop

Cat is black
Whale is blue
No snow yet
November’s round the block

On the rocks
This and that
Lead and chalk
This glassful’s halfway dry

Chintz and silk
Sweat and ice
Current clicks
The spaces between lines

Winter – autumn
Asking time’s up
Pour another
Get up eight sharp

Cigarettes
Empty box
Handgun sat
Inside the drawer, mute

Knife the heart
Wadded shot
Hit the spot
Be cool – it’s nickels, dimes

Pacing one-two
March on staunchly
Always first to
Start debauch’ry

Teardrop boulder
Sage with honey
Flowers after
Off you…

about

Vezhlivy Otkaz Moscow, Russia

Vezhlivy Otkaz was formed in 1985 with a then-popular reggae/ska blend. Since then, they have gone through numerous stylistic changes,

Suslov’s rhythmic guitar work and unusual high-pitched vocals gives VO’s music a precisely constructed,
crystal-clear sound.
