We're All Gonna Die

Viva De Life

"OFF WITH HIS HEAD!" is the final single from the debut album, "Alex in Wonderland" by ALEX KAUTZ.

OFF WITH HIS HEAD!

The concept for this video began in 2017 when I finished a demo version of the song and sent it to the great Ukrainian composer and film director Sergiy Krutsenko in Kyiv. He wrote an orchestral score and brought in the Kyiv Radio Symphony Orchestra to play it. He then invited me to Ukraine to film the video in an epic production at a former Soviet prison camp and a centuries-old castle. The filming was both grueling and exhilarating.  The story is about a dystopian society where music is banned and musicians are executed for violating the "law of silence."  I play the role of the protagonist musician who opposes the dictator while his army of misfits constantly try to stop me but I always get away at the last second. This story is not only a metaphor for the actions of authoritarian regimes around the world but it foretold, in a sense, the 2022 full invasion of Ukraine by a dictator with a misfit army. And the lyrics of the song are the perfect power anthem for Ukraine with the chorus a defiant and unapologetic war cry toward victory--"We are the promise, we are the glory, we are the story."  Initially, we created the video not just for the song but as a pilot for a series on cable.  Unfortunately, COVID hit in 2020 before we could finish it, then the big war started in February 2022, and then my friend and mentor, Sergiy Krutsenko, died suddenly on  January 6, 2023 while he was at his workstation editing the video.   So his team in Ukraine finished it and hopefully, he is pleased with the final result. We will now actively push for a cable company to fulfill Sergey's dream to create a hard-hitting film series where famous musicians can make cameo appearances with me to fight against fascism.  On the anniversary of Sergiy's death, I dedicate this video to him and the people of Ukraine.   Please share, comment, like, and spread the new Ukrainian power anthem--"We are the promise, we are the glory, we are the story."

Take what you want from me, girl.
I've never had anything that I, I couldn't give.
Just leave me some space to breathe, girl.
Never had the space before in which to live.

Don't save yourself for me, girl. 
Don't waste it all tonight.

Take me as I am, girl.
With enough left for a few pints, I'll be alright. 
Just give me a small piece, girl, 
I'm not expecting miracles, s'alright

Don't save yourself for me, girl.
Don't go all in tonight. 

Take the lot and walk away, girl.
Any other way wouldn't be right.
I'll give myself to you, girl. 
I'm not expecting much, but it's alright. 



Take What You Want

sitting on a mountain
looking to the sky
from the top of this world
everything's a crime

don't u look so sad
see the cat is sleeping
lying on ur head

god is a cat
(sleeping beside ur head)
god is a cat
(giving is what u get)

All things must pass
Sure they won't last
I am at bay

You piss me off
Just go fuck off
I take my day

You told me once
I was not the one
You were right babe

Why would I be
Your stooge baby
I go away 

Go fuck yourself
I'm under stress
You block the way

You told me once 
All things must pass
You were right babe

I Go Away
