Message to Harry Manback Lyrics

Figlio di puttana, sai che tu sei un pezzo di merda?
Hm? You think you're cool, right? Hm? Hm?
When you kicked out people out of your house
I tell you this, one of three Americans die of cancer,
You know? Asshole. You're gonna be one of those.
I don't have the courage
To kick your ass directly.
Don't have enough courage for that,
I could, you know.
You know you're gonna have another accident?
You know I'm involved with black magic?
Fuck you. Die. Bastard.
You think you're so cool, hm? Asshole.
And if I ever see your fucking face around,
In Europe or Italy,
Well I'll, that time I'm gonna kick your ass.
Fuck you. Fucking Americans, Yankee.
You're gonna die outta cancer, I promise.
Bang bang, deep pain
No one does what you did to me.
You wanna know something? Fuck you.
I want your balls smashed, eat shit. Bastard.
Pezzo di merda, figlio di puttana.
I hope somebody in your family dies soon.
Crepa, pezzo di merda, e vai
A sucare cazzi su un aereo!
(1) Son of a bitch, do you know you are a piece of shit?
(2) Piece of shit, son of a bitch.
(3) Die, piece of shit, and go suck dicks on a plane!

And I quote: MESSAGE TO HARRY MANBACK Hotsy Menshot from Green Jelly (a jokemetal band in which Maynard debuted as one of the Three Little Pigs explains: “The voice on Message to Harry Manback is my old friend Francesco, (from Rome, Italy) who would come and live with me and my old roommate Jerry, off and on. I kicked him out after he stole some possessions from Jerry, and he called that night on the answering machine because he was afraid of me, and couldn’t threaten me to my face. He was 6’2” but only weighed 130 pounds and looked like Ichabod Crane from Sleepy Hollow. I could’ve broken him like a twig. He called back again the next morning, and that message was finally heard on Message to Harry Manback II on Salival. Anyway, everyone used to imitate it from my impression, even though they have never heard it. Years later, I found the tape and played it for Figlio di puttana, sai che tu sei un pezzo di merda? Hm? You think you’re cool, right? Hm? When you kicked out people [out of] your house? I tell you this, one of three Americans die of cancer, you know? Asshole. You’re gonna be one of those. I don’t have the courage to kick your ass directly. Don’t have enough courage for that, I could, you know. You know you’re gonna have another accident? You know I’m involved with black magic? Fuck you! Die. Bastard! You think you’re so cool, hm? Asshole. And if I ever see your fucking face around, In Europe or Italy, Well I’ll — That time I’m gonna kick your ass. Fuck you! Fucking Americans, Yankee. You’re gonna die outta cancer, I promise. Deep pain... No one does what you did to me. You wanna know something? Fuck you! I want your balls smashed, eat shit! Bastard! Pezzo di merda, figlio di puttana. I hope somebody in your family dies soon. Crepa, pezzo di merda, e vai a sucare cazzi su un aereo!

  • Son of a bitch, do you know you’re a piece of shit? ** Piece of shit, son of a bitch. *** Die, piece of shit, and go suck dicks on a plane! Maynard, who by this point, was my roommate. Next thing I knew, a few edits, some piano ... viola! ... “Harry Manback” is a joke name from the famous comedian, Bill Hicks (deceased)”

@Fortheloveof Thanks for the history of it. Funny merde.

Tracy, God damn you're a dipshit, good job reading.

This song is in collaboration with the other song on the album Die Eier Von Satan. It is trying to tell you to read in between the lines. In Message to Harry Manbeck, the man is very angry and is saying bad things, but to a person who did not know Italian, it would sound very romantic, even though the lyrics are vicious. Now in Die Eier Von Satan, the lyrics are merely are cookie recipe. But since it is in German, a very dark sounding language, the message sounds very satanic. The song is showing the difference between the two, and telling you to look deeper into the song, instead of just reading the lyrics and saying, “ ohh, that is such a bad song!”

actually die eir von satan's irony is that its meant to sound like a hitler rally. i wouldnt consider german a dark/satanic sounding language.

Yes! Finally One of these retards figures it out! OUSAEL, you my friend are actually 100% correct.

Wow. thank you really

Does anyone know who the FUCK Harry is! I mean, damn he sounds like a politician or something, and they even wrote a sequel to this song, so he's probably still around.

Hey bob, did you look at that site at all? Do you realize that perhaps the "to" is just an aknowalgement to "Harry"? I doubt that I'm a god, but I'm pretty sure that you're a retard nevertheless...
