MESSAGE What I think bout you is what I think you think bout me What you think I do, like how much too much I drink coffee What I think bout myself is what tells the message that I’m sending Cause the mailman might be FBI and Aliens are renting The flat next to mine, we’re not having sex tonight, What kind of message that would send? If I count my steps that will bring hep, yes now I see If we both count them each then we’ll reach perfect harmony Cause in the long run we are all one, guess here’s what I am saying: No matter what the mailman brings, what aliens are paying For the flat next to mine, we might just have sex tonight, It’s just a message that we send.

BAD COPS II Keep the streets clean Keep the genes clean Keep your pilot jacket and your Bangladesh made jeans clean Keep your nose clean Keep your ho’s clean Keep the flag on your back like a cape And your face mean Keep your head sober It’s not a walk in a park Keep your heart noble But you can talk in the dark Keep your bat clean Karelian cap clean Keep your spotless mind clean, Outside the bald shining like moonbeam Keep the streets clean Keep the genes clean Your white too white, your blue too blue Cause you're a bad cop too Keep your head sober It’s not a walk in a park Keep your heart noble But you can talk in the dark It’s nearly october, I know it’s cold, I know it’s ruff Keep your friends closer cause if you think you know yourself You think you know enough Keep your head sober It’s not a walk in a park Keep your heart noble But you can talk in the dark It’s nearly october, I know it’s cold, I know it’s ruff Keep your friends closer cause you think you know yourself But you're just a bad cop 2

about

Fear thy neighbour like thyself. Inside four walls, listening to the footsteps of your neighbour, one is prone to think about what your neighbour can hear from your apartment - and what do they think of you. Continue down this rabbit hole far enough and paranoia will set in and your mind has tangled itself into an inextricable knot. The first song, Message, from the new double single by The Botherers is dealing with the core thematics of the upcoming Urban Schizophrenia album. Musically it's cheery power pop.

The garage-rocking B side Bad Cops II sarcastically offers a comforting shoulder to Soldiers of Odin and other right-wing vigilantes who march on the city streets, high on their own sense of superiority, yet shivering from cold.

The single is available on streaming services now. Luova Records will release the Urban Schizophrenia album in November.
