From their "bio:" As the world is coming to an end, Professor Jimi Hendrix, a genius scientist from Electric Ladyland finds the result of his mad research: the ultimate life form, MAN WITH A MISSION (MWAM).
Are they men or wolves? Beyond their funny appearance, these beings are gifted with superhuman brains and bodies. From this moment on, MWAM is behind all the crimes of this world, which made their creator freeze them in ice. Set free by global warming, they’re back, traveling the world looking for new missions. For good or evil, nobody knows yet.

Bubble of Life
MAN WITH A MISSION Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In the insane vortex you drift through the crowd
Bubble of life you're believing,
Bubble of life you're growing
Nothing else you can focus
Nowhere, nowhere you're going
Let's dance and jump! jump! jump!
Let's drink and hip! hip! hip!
Just go and get a grip
This is the no end night
You hit me bang! bang! bang!
Consuming rapidly
And all the night we'll hang
Running so desperately as good as the others
Scrape your soul again with no cover
Let it grow on but you know nothing ever comforts what you need
Its worthless see? Those everything you feed
The crazy party never ends just like our continuous greed
Let's dance and jump! jump! jump!
You hit me bump! bump! bump!
Let's drink and hip! hip! hip!
Just go and get a grip
Let's party up! up! up!
As they go down down down
Drown in the endless night
With all our fake gilt crowns
Swirl of Frenzy losing your mind gradually
In the insane vortex you drift through the crowd
Bubble of life you're believing,
Bubble of life you're growing
Nothing else you can focus
Nowhere, nowhere you're going
Running so desperately your trying to death
for what's the only one thing you need
Inside you? Outside them? Which side where?
All the truth you bleed
It's just like bubbles see? Yeah, everything they plead
The endless circle whirling on round and round
we go with our greed
The song "Bubble of Life" by MAN WITH A MISSION talks about the madness and frenzy one goes through during a party. The lyrics depict the loss of control that one feels while being a part of a crowd, consumed by the bubble of life. Despite its meaningless superficiality, the bubble of life becomes the sole focus of the party-goer, with nowhere else to go but to stay within the insanity of the vortex. The persona becomes a part of the endless night that fuels the party, fueled by continuous greed, begging the question of what it's all really worth. The chorus's repetitive jump, drink, and hip commands exhibit the trance-like state that the persona is in, with no end to the night in sight.
The lyrics' depth also explores the persona's struggle to discover what really matters, with the party serving as a distraction from diving deep within one's soul. The line, "scrape your soul again with no cover" emphasizes the lack of protection one feels in this fast-paced lifestyle, leaving one vulnerable to the emptiness that comes with trying to fit in with the crowd. The search for the unknown that they crave leaves them running desperately, never to be filled with temporary pleasures. The song urges the listeners to reflect inward and detach from the mundane, insincere partying culture.

We go with our greed
Continuing the partying lifestyle without awareness of the long-term harm it can cause
