Mademoiselle remembers too well
How once she was belle of the ball
Now the past she sadly recalls.
Mademoiselle lived in grand hotels
Ordered clothes by Chanel and Dior
Millionaires queued at her door.
Oh, she pleased them and teased them
She hooked them and squeezed them
Until like their empires they'd fall
She very soon learned
That the more love she spurned
The more power she yearned
Until she was belle of the ball.
Oh, Mademoiselle, such a soft machiavel
Would play bagatelle with the hearts of young men as
they fell
Mademoiselle would hide in her shell
Could then turn cast a spell on any girl
That got in her way.
She would crave all attention
Men would flock to her side
Woe betide any man who ignored
For she'd feign such affection
Then break down their pretension
When she'd won she would turn away.
Turn away, thoroughly bored.
Mademoiselle, long ago said farewell
To any love left to sell, for the sake of being belle
of the ball
Mademoiselle knows there's no way to quell
Her own private hell, just a shell,
With no heart left at all.
Poor old Mademoiselle.
Every time we quarrel, something deep inside
Tells me to hold on tight
We try to reach and hurt it and fight it with our minds
It feeds on our pain to survive
I love you - there ain't nothing I can do about it
I love you - there ain't no other way to explain it
What was once a surprise, what you'd always wanted
You now seem to despise
Now you have to try and break it, cos you can't believe
It's still alive
I love you - ooh, babe, I love you
And whatever we say, whatever we do
We will never replace what we once started
Every time we quarrel I try to run away
While the pride in me burns my eyes,
Blinded by confusion and a sudden loss of faith
There is still a faint voice in me cries
I love you - like a mountain that touches the sky
I love you - like a fire that refuses to die
Like a child with a candle you'd like to blow out
To be frightened once more by the dark
But then you get lost and you want to get back,
You find you need to kiss and shout...
I love you - ooh I love you
And whatever we say, whatever we do
Someone's rocking my dreamboat
Someone's invading my dreams
We were sailing along so peaceful and calm
Suddenly something went wrong
Someone's rocking my dreamboat
Disturbing a beautiful dream
It's a mystery to me, this mutiny at sea
Who can it be, who can it be?
A friendly breeze gave us a start
To a paradise of our own
All at once a storm blew us apart
And left me drifting alone
Someone's rocking my dreamboat
I'm a captain without any crew
But with love as my guide, I'll follow the tide
And I'll keep sailing till I find you
When the falling night casts a shadow across my heart
As you reach for the light, can’t find comfort in the
dark
If I caught your eye would I see the brightness
beginning to fade ?
If I read your mind would I keep the memories
from fading away?
In our innocence we were children trying to heal
When we closed our eyes secret worlds
could be revealed
You went walking out to a wonderland
With my heart in your hands
Reaching out in the distance, left our dreams
in the sand.
It was so strong - it was so strong,
and love never loses, love is so strong.
It was in our sights, now it seems so far out of reach
I keep looking behind, losing reception
- the signals are weak
And the pieces lie scattered on the ground
In the shape of my heart
I can’t find the connection, lost my faith in the
stars.
It was so strong - for so long.
Love never loses,love moves on.It was so strong - that
we’re just holding on
They say love never loses, love is strong.
And I feel like I’m falling
say it ain't so,Joe please, say it ain't so
that's not what I want to hear Joe
ain't I got a right to know
say it ain't so, Joe please, say it ain't so
I'm sure they're telling us lies Joe
please tell us it ain't so
they told us our hero has played his trump card
he doesn't know how to go on
we're clinging to his charm and determined smile
but the good old days are gone,
the image and the empire may be falling apart
the money has gotten scarce
one mans word held the country together
but the truth is getting fierce
say it ain't so,Joe please, say it ain't so
we pinned our hopes on you Joe
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the Devil walking next to me
Bangkok, Oriental setting
And the city don't know what the city is getting
The creme de la creme of the chess world
In a show with everything but Yul Brynner
Time flies, doesn't seem a minute
Since the Tirolean Spa had the chess boys in it
All change, don't you know that when you
Play at this level, there's no ordinary venue
It's Iceland or the Philippines
Or Hastings or, or this place
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a God in every golden cloister
And if you're lucky then the God's a she
I can feel an angel sliding up to me
One town's very like another
When your head's down over your pieces, Brother
It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
To be looking at the board, not looking at the city
Whaddya mean?
Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town
Tea girls, warm and sweet, warm, sweet
Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham Suite
"Get Thai'd", you're talking to a tourist
Whose every move's among the purest
I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
I can feel the Devil walking next to me
Siam's gonna be the witness
To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
This grips me more than would
A muddy old river or Reclining Buddha
But thank God, I'm only watching the game, controlling it
I don't see you guys rating
The kind of mate I'm contemplating
I'd let you watch, I would invite you
But the queens we use would not excite you
So you better go back to your bars, your temples
Your massage parlors
One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
You'll find a God in every golden cloister
A little flesh, a little history
I can feel an angel slidin' up to me
One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
Not much between despair and ecstasy
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
Can't be too careful with your company
Never even thought it could happen to be
Maybe I've been blind, only others can see
I'm in love
What am I to do, can I let it show
Do I keep it to myself our should I let her know
I'm in love ?
Do I nurse it in my heart, hold it back in my eyes
Hide it all inside or put on a disguise
I'm in love ?
Have I gotta play games, even suffer the pain
Let the secret out, even suffer the doubt,
I'm in love ?
I know it's all there, I really want to share
My life whith someone else
Will she feel the same ?
It isn't so easy when you've been broken before
But it isn't so hard when you're ready for more
Could you love me ?
Give me a simple clue, anything will do
So long as I know what's in me is in you
Could you love me ?
I've got so much of care to give away
There's only one thing I wanna hear you say
He is a rubbernecker
A human double-decker
Another trouble-checker
Hanging around the scene of the crime
He's got nothing to say tho' he'll get in the way
Cos that's how he likes to spend his time
Rubbernecker
He is a rubbernecker
A watch in any weather
He gets sadistic pleasure
Knowing he's O.K., and free of blame
He saw it all happen, but he don't know why
He's glad he was there all the same.
Rubbernecker
Oh god it's hard to see ourselves when we're to blame
For watching someone else do what we cannot do
For shame, for fear or pride, as long as we can hide.
Rubbernecker
He is a rubbernecker
A human double-decker
Another trouble-checker
The ever silent witness on the side
He likes to stand and stare and sniff the atmosphere
Don't ask him for support he's a watchman not a guide.
TREAT HER RIGHT
Roy Head
I wanna tell you a story
Every man oughta know
If you want a little lovin
You gotta start real slow
She's gonna love you tonight now
If you just treat her right now
Squeeze her real gentle
Gotta make her feel good
Tell her that you love her
Like you know you should
So if you don't treat her right
She won't love you tonight
If you practice my method
Just as hard as you can
You're gonna get a reputation
As a lovin man
And you'll be glad every night
That you treated her right
MUSIC TO FADE
Hey wait for me!
The young man cried aloud,
Running across the street
He couldn't find the crowd.
The streets were paved with garbage
The size of motor cars,
While businessmen were drinking cocktails
Somewhere - laced with caviar
Meanwhile in a basement,
I am listening to the rain
Thinking about the day going by.
And wasn't it a shame,
I'd let the kettle boil dry.
And I'd forgot to buy myself a T.V. guide
Last daze of an empire
Will be the first rays of hope
I saw and heard the news today,
Fifteen times or more;
It helped me keep informed all day,
Of what's going on outside my door.
I read the papers in between the bulletins
On the radio and T.V.;
I didn't have to move an inch,
I felt as solid as a tree.
I looked out of my basement window,
At a cat lying fast asleep.
The street looked like the aftermath
And the sky was turning grey.
The crowd had moved on somewhere else -
The young man talked to a garbage heap.
As I looked down at my feet,
I felt nothing left to say, but then,
The last daze of an empire
If you're gonna let me down
Make it easy, take it easy.
If you take your love to town
Don't tease me, please don't tease me.
I really don't wanna be humiliated.
It's happened once or twice before.
I promise you it isn't very complicated.
Please don't come back for more.
Once I'm bitten, twice I'm shy.
Believe me, please believe me.
You will never see me cry.
It ain't easy, oh it ain't easy.
I really don't wanna be humiliated.
It's happened once or twice before.
I promise you it isn't very complicated.
Climb the rigging and haul the ropes
Hoist and unfurl the dusty sail
Winds are singing, we're bound for hope
It is impossible to fail
Flesh is willing and dreams will soar
When we sight the distant shore
Hold on fast to the skies
Smell the spray in your eyes
Know the albatross that cries is just a friend
Glide our weary pain-laden souls
Over hollowed heaving waves
Weigh our bodies down with salt
Every hallowed heathen sways
There is hope to guide us there
There is love to make us one
With our souls as the anchor
Light our path to the sun
Till our everlasting search is at an end
Hold on fast to the skies
Smell the spray in your eyes
Turning me on and with your eyes
Playing along and with you eyes
Coming on strong and with your eyes
You burn me
Searching to please and with your smile
Cursing with ease and with your smile
Kindle the flame and with your smile
You burn me
Have I gotta be burn all over again
I'd rather you told me that you couldn't care less
Than put me through numbers that feel like a test
I want you
But I gotta know that I'm wanted
That I don't get taken for granted
When I'm yours
I'd rather you told me that you couldn't care less
Than put me through numbers that feel like a test
I want you
I'll be yours to command and obey
I won't demand
But I gotta know that I'm wanted
That I don't get taken for granted
When I'm yours
I'll be yours to command and obey
I won't demand
I'll be yours to command and obey
I won't demand
Gotta know that I'm wanted
That I don't get taken for granted
When I'm yours
But I gotta know that I'm wanted
That I don't get taken for granted
Every time I look at you
I don't understand
Why you let the things you did
Get so out of hand
You'd have managed better
If you'd had it planned
Now why'd you choose such a backward time
And such a strange land?
If you'd come today
You could have reached the whole nation
Israel in 4 BC had no mass communication
Don't you get me wrong (Don't you get me wrong)
Don't you get me wrong (Don't you get me wrong)
Don't you get me wrong (Don't you get me wrong)
Don't you get me wrong (Don't you get me wrong)
Only want to know (Only want to know)
Only want to know (Only want to know)
Only want to know (Only want to know)
Only want to know (Only want to know)
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ, Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
Jesus Christ, Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
Tell me what you think
About your friends at the top
Now who d'you think besides yourself
Was the pick of the crop?
Buddah was he where it's at?
Is he where you are?
Could Muhammmed move a mountain
Or was that just PR?
Did you mean to die like that?
Was that a mistake or
Did you know your messy death
Would be a record breaker?
(Don't you get me wrong) Don't you get me wrong
(Don't you get me wrong, now) Don't you get me wrong
(Don't you get me wrong) Don't you get me wrong
(Don't you get me wrong, now) Don't you get me wrong
(Only want to know) Only want to know
(Only want to know, now) Only want to know
(Only want to know) Only want to know
(Only want to know, now) I only want to know
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
Who are you? What have you sacrificed?
Jesus Christ, Superstar
Do you think you're what they say you are?
Can't you hear me calling, I'm shouting out loud
Maybe you've mistaken me for one of the crowd
My back's against the wall, my feeling's on show
Silence is the only reply that I know
The sleeping dog in me won't lie
But when I'm woken you can't, no can't deny
When you fall in love from the very start
You give your love and then they break your heart
When dreams are broken silence is a strong reply
Can't you hear me laughing, exposing my fears
Can't you see me crying, withholding the tears
There isn't any point in closing your hears
The silence that's between us is the passing of years
Take a breath where the earth touches the sky
We can both feel the reason why
When you fall in love from the very start
You give your love and then they break your heart
Because silence is a strong reply
Darling you'll love it, it's down on the corner
Wearing those star-studded high heel boots
Wear your mascara, try on the tiara
Perhaps it'll cover up some of your roots
She's such a drag
She's such a drag
Leather for pleasure, whatever the weather
Cruisin' and losin' her old cares and woes
Street invitation, the newest sensation
Forget your intention when your petticoat shows
She-she such a drag
Ooh! She such a drag
Step up on the merry-go-round
There's plenty room for more
It's a carnival, a circus that we've gotta preserve
When we're together
Touching each other
And our bodies
Do what we feel
When we're dancing
Smooching and swaying
Tender love song
Softly playing
Move closer (move closer)
Move your body' real close until we
Feel like we're making love
Get closer
So when I say sugar
And I whisper i love vou (I love you)
Well I know you're gonna answer
in the sweetest voice yeah my sexy baby
I love you too
There's much room for passion, oh no, no
There no room for fears
When the love flows smoothly between us
my dear
Oh move closer baby
Come here girl
Let me hold you
You feel so good to me woman
Move closer) Let's get closer
(Let's get closer) Gonna make sweet love to you
Honey get beside me
And let me love you
My baby, baby, baby
I love you
So baby won't yoy
Move closer (move closer)
Why don't you move your body real close
Until we feeI like we're really' making sweet, sweet,
sweet, sweet, sweet love
Move closer (move closer)
So why don't you take me to heaven
Oh baby, to heaven, yeah
Let's take our time and do it right
Be going all night, yeah
I've been travelling hard tho' there didn't seem much
to move me,
And my senses were numbed as the scenery passed right
thru' me,
Down a telephone line it was easy enough to lose me,
But with you on my side, it was easy to ride
The storm and the tide, as they bruised me.
How many ways are there left to say I love you.
I kept telling myself my wounds were on the mend.
But my confidence slides when I can't tell who's a
friend.
There were nights when I cried and I could not see the
end.
But something within, made me still want to win
As I realised within me, was you.
How many ways are there left to say I love you.
She said, "I don't know what to feel anymore
When you're home it's too much, when you're gone I'm
unsure
Can't you admit there are times when you're wrong,
You've been away from me one week too long".
I'd lean against bars, hopelessly killing time
Talking out dreams and drowning my fears in wine.
Avoiding the bed that brings a sadness that's hard to
define.
When the day breaks again I go back to the same
Empty room, and the pain of us being apart.
This is the time when I need to say I love you.
Judas
My mind is clearer now
At last
All too well
I can see
Where we all
Soon will be
If you strip away
The myth
From the man
You will see
Where we all
Soon will be
Jesus!
You've started to believe
The things they say of you
You really do believe
This talk of God is true
And all the good you've done
Will soon be swept away
You've begun to matter more
Than the things you say
Listen Jesus
I don't like what I see
All I ask is that you listen to me
And remember
I've been your right hand man all along
You have set them all on fire
They think they've found the new Messiah
And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong
I remember when this whole thing began
No talk of God then, we called you a man
And believe me
My admiration for you hasn't died
But every word you say today
Gets twisted 'round some other way
And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied
Nazareth's most famous son
Should have stayed a great unknown
Like his father carving wood
He'd have made good
Tables, chairs and oaken chests
Would have suited Jesus best
He'd have caused nobody harm
No one alarm
Listen Jesus, do you care for your race?
Don't you see we must keep in our place?
We are occupied
Have you forgotten how put down we are?
I am frightened by the crowd
For we are getting much too loud
And they'll crush us if we go too far
If we go too far
Listen Jesus to the warning I give
Please remember that I want us to live
But it's sad to see our chances weakening with ev'ry
hour
All your followers are blind
Too much heaven on their minds
It was beautiful, but now it's sour
Yes it's all gone sour
Ah --- ah ah ah --- ah
God Jesus, it's all gone sour
Listen Jesus to the warning I give
Please remember that I want us to live
So come on, come on, listen to me.
Ah --- ah
Come on, listen, listen to me.
Come on and listen to me.
Now is the time when he needs your every support
Now is the time when he needs your love
Now is the time when he needs your every thought
He needs help from you and heaven above
Don' t forget him now
Try carrying the load that he bears
It's bringing him down
Carrying the burden that's on his back
Try wearing the shackles
That tie his feet to the ground
Seeing the light when the future looks black
Don' t forget him now
Help him bear the conscience
That taunts his weathered mind
Freedom from the snare that haunts mankind
Be the light to guide him
Be the shield to hide him
Show to him the self he has to find
Now is the time when he needs your every support
Now is the time when he needs your love
Now is the time when he needs your every thought
He needs help from you and heaven above
Dearest Anne
When You're In Love (1995)
Back on the road once more
And who knows what will lie in store
For you, dearest Anne
Better the highway code
Than being secure behind closed doors
And dreaming, dearest Anne
Carry your faith like a jewel among thieves
May your soul shine out brightly
And quite politely
You'll bring them to their knees, dear Anne
Long may the road and the wind and the rain still be
behind you
Til you change your mind again, dearest Anne
Wish I was with you walking by your side
Wish I was young again to see it through your eyes
But I'm old and I've relinquished, nearly extinguished
The burning need for surprises in my life
Long may the road and the wind and the rain still be
behind you
Til you change your mind, dearest Anne
Long may the road and wind be with you in your need
And the changing seasons
And the freedom
To believe the truth they breathe
As long as the road is not your guide
And you realize that it's just an escape, dearest Anne
Wish I was with you walking by your side
Wish I was young again to see it through your eyes
But I'm old and I've relinquished, nearly extinguished
The burning need for surprises in my life
As long as the road is not your guide
Do you ever get that feeling
People closing doors behind you
All alone again, surrounded
By the normal things you do
Like a rabbit in the headlights,
You get rooted to the spot
Now they baffle you with choices
Will they leave you here to rot?
Corporation corridors,
How I wonder what's in store for me.
Corporation corridors,
Help me find an open door
Believe in me, I'll play your game
Please don't ignore me or my name
Do you ever get that feeling
People running scared around you
Sacrificing their opinions
For the uniform they wear
Corporation pays the mortgage,
Telephone and shiny car
Sell your morals for promotion,
Pass the buck and you'll go far
Corporation corridors
How I wonder what's in store for me
Corporation corridors,
Devoted I'll obey your laws
Grant me my security
A corporate identity and I'm yours
I'm yours
You're the answer to my problems
Can you help me run my life and find some friends
Do you ever get that feeling
People making out they like you
All the time they're busy working
On the plan to run you through
If you really want to beat them
You can do it through the system
Secret lies in infiltration,
Anonymity's the clue
Make a point in being faceless
Keep your instinct well alive
Making sure you leave no traces
And you won't tell any lies
Come and join the corporation now
Step into the corridor
["Come on"?] knocking at the station now
There's a boy on the bridge
And he's looking ahead with confusion in his eyes
There's a man on the ridge
Who is laughing out loud, heavily in disguise
There's a girl on the lake
Reflecting her thoughts
Which she kisses away with sighs
What would you do in this boy's place
Move on or compromise?
Freedom of choice is a hell of a burden
Maybe living for kicks is wise
There's a town far below
That is calling him home
Where his friends got bored and laid
There's a hill up ahead
With a mountain behind
With a pub that is barren and frayed
What would you do in this boy's place
Move on or compromise?
Freedom of choice is a hell of a burden
Maybe living for kicks is wise
'Cause he wants to be free
But is frighten to be alone
'Cause he wants to be free
But is frighten to be alone
'Cause he wants to be free
Ooh, my sweet baby
You are so very tasty
Let us have another
Drink with each other, baby
Who needs the words to say it
If we speak we'll only waste it
Touch for touch we'll soon discover
Weave together, breathe each other
Fusing our minds and our bodies and our souls
Let's make a day of it last, let's make a day of it last,
¿Quién podrá enfrentarse a él?
¿Quién creen que tiene el poder?
si tienen sabiduría
denle las gracias a él
¿Quién podrá escaparse de él?
¿Quién podrá burlarse de su ley?
recuerden desde lo alto
le esta observando el rey
¿Quién podrá enfrentarse a él?
¿Quién creen que tiene el poder?
si tienen sabiduría
denle las gracias a él
¿Quién podrá escaparse de él?
¿Quién podrá burlarse de su ley?
recuerden desde lo alto
le esta observando el rey
¿Quién podrá apagar el fuego?
Ahora que ha sido coronado el cordero
el tiene el poder para abrir los sellos
y pronto sus jinetes bajarán del cielo
Y todos van a ver aunque no quieran verlo
y hoy dará testimonio de su tormento
aquel malvado que causó el sufrimiento
no encontrará el perdón con su arrepentimiento
Y cuando quieran enfrentarse a él
sientan su cólera caer, bien cruel
¿Qué van a hacer?
ya se arrepentirán
pero será tarde y echarán a llorar
entonces, querrán echar el tiempo pa atras
pero no podrán, hacer nada no
pues su sentencia la van apagar
¿Quién podrá enfrentarse a él?
¿Quién creen que tiene el poder?
si tienen sabiduría
denle las gracias a él
¿Quién podrá escaparse de él?
¿Quién podrá burlarse de su ley?
recuerden desde lo alto
Querido enemigo déjame en paz,
no ves que no cuento contigo para avanzar,
que a cada paso que doy estoy creciendo,
y a cada tono que suelto mueres por dentro,
un poquito mas de lo que ya lo estas,
por mucho que intentes contra mi, jamas nada conseguiras,
porque yo tengo el don y hablo la verdad,
y tu solamente hablas mierda,
Y por eso va este tema,
para que todos sepan del problema,
y asi me entiendan cuando yo les prenda en la hoguera,
espero me presten atencion porque esto no es para cualquiera,
para los que tengo calaos y los que no valen la pena,
Y si recuerdan que antes lo pasabamos bien,
yendo a partys por la noche ellos decian ser mi friend,
pero algo cambio y es que a mi me fue tan bien,
es algo que el tiempo me ha dicho que no saben comprender.
Querido enemigo dejame en paz,
que a mi no me gusta esta vaina y
yo uso la musica para unificar y no,
para apuñalar por la espalda,
pues ahora me he vendido y voy de fashion y voy de guay,
y paso de vosotros porque mi nivel no estais,
y es que sois unos julais alla donde vayais,
que sepais battybwoys mi nombre escuchareis.
Querido enemigo dejame en paz,
no quiero saber de envidia ni de maldad,
no quiero que me persigan ni tener que dedicar,
pues saben que mi tema mas veces que el suyo va a sonar,
y luego,
no me vengan llorando porque mi letra yo le estoy tirando,
porque solo me estoy defendiendo por toda la mierda que estas hablando,
porque es falso, como tu, que eres un falso,
porque es falso, como tu, que eres un fool,
ellos son bwoy no valen nada,
Me se de uno que era bueno,
me se de otro que era aun mejor
pero se perdieron en el lado oscuro y el diablo sus almas se las llevo, yo, yooo
Me se de uno que era bueno,
me se de otro que era aun mejor
pero se quemaron con el fuego y se convirtieron en demonio,
Pero eso vienen, me atacan, apuntan con su aka,
acompañaos del satan no destacan,
con lo que cantan ellos nunca avanzan,
y no se dan cuenta que no pueden con el rasta,
y por eso se arrastran como serpientes,
y su dolor aumenta a medida que mienten,
si quieren un consejo: mejor no lo intenten,
pues este bwoy las suelta y al final se arrepienten.
Hombres que piensan maldad, hombres que piensan maldad
hombres que piensan maldad, caminan por la tierra, me quieren tentar.
Hombres que piensan maldad, hombres que piensan maldad
hombres que piensan maldad, y desean la guerra y no la unidad
Hombres que piensan maldad, hombres que piensan maldad
hombres que piensan maldad, querido enemigo a mi dejame en paz,
Hombres que piensan maldad, no va,hombres que piensan maldad
Cuando no sabes qué hacer, te sientes perdido y estas confundido
Debes mantenerte siempre ruil para no sucumbir al poder del Maligno
Pues él lo que quiere es llevarse tu alma, enterrarla y quemarla en el abismo
Así que escucha lo que yo te digo y empieza a tomar por ti mismo "I se"
Una vez mas ya llega el súper Nyahbingi man
Cargando el mensaje del rey Selassie I
Desde lo alto allá en el monte Zion
Resistente al tiempo en Adis Abeba
Una vez mas llega el súper Nyahbingi Man
Cargando el mensaje del rey
Desde lo alto allá en el monte Zion
Resistente al tiempo.
Con santas escrituras aprendo y enseño
Según la ley de Moïses oh Yes !
Invocando el poder de la Trinidad
Para que aceptes al único rey Selassie I
.
Haile Selassie
Guíame en el camino y no dejes ke me aparte
Dejé mi arte en el combate
Pues el mensaje ke traigo
Viene desde allà de lo mas alto
Pues aquél que creo al hombre del fango
Es el mismo que Wohohooo guia mi canto
Y una vez mas ya llega el súper Nyahbingi man
Cargando el mensaje del rey Selassie I
Desde lo alto allá en el monte Zion
Resistente al tiempo en Adis Abeba
Y una vez mas ya llega el súper Nyahbingi man
Cargando el mensaje del rey Selassie I
Desde lo alto allá en el monte Zion
Resistente al tiempo
Vine para enseñar cultura
Por eso desde las alturas recibo la vibracion mas pura
Hace tiempo ya que despejé mis dudas
Y me hice fuerte como el león conquistador de Judas
Combatiendo la locura con Santas Escrituras
Buscando tengo un mal, también tengo quién me cura
Aunque la batalla se presente dura
es del rey Selassie I la mano que me de mi cura
Y una vez mas ya llega el súper Nyahbingi man
Cargando el mensaje del rey
Desde lo alto allá en el monte Zion
Resistente al tiempo en Adis Abeba
Y una vez mas ya llega el súper Nyahbingi man
Cargando el mensaje del rey
Desde lo alto allá en el monte Zion
Resistente al tiempo en Adis Abeba
Si es que yo alzé mis brazos hasta el cielo
Grabando al Señor y pidiéndole misericordia y consuelo
Para mi pueblo que se encuentra al ras del suelo
Como al ras del suelo llega el mundo entero
Muchos se queman con el fuego
Participes de Babilonia que por sus maldades viven ciegos
Imperios que en nombre son dueños
Aunque es q se acojonan de libertad en sueños
Por eso digo BASTA
Escuchen ahora al Rasta
En nombre del que esta en el santo monte
En los que en su altura descansan
Digo BASTA
Paren esta farsa
Antes que sea demasiado tarde,
y no puedan salvar sus almas
Una vez mas ya llega el súper Nyahbingi Man
Cargando el mensaje del rey Selassie I
Desde lo alto allá en el monte Zion
Resistiendo al tiempo en Adis Abeba
Y una vez mas llega el súper Nyahbingi Man
Cargando el mensaje del Rey Selassie I
Desde lo alto allá en el monte Zion

Que yo no vine MC de alucine, tu siente mis rimas y los quieran que imaginen (x2)
(Souchi)
Con formas correctas tal vez no llegaría lejos,
en rimas reflejo de rotos espejos,
algo viene y mientras llega todo se hace viejo,
muchas decisiones solo se quedan en pensamientos,
se te pasa el tiempo, te quedas en esto, con esto,
yo tengo que dar unos pasos decisivos,
en cierto modo seguir vivo,
ya no hay dudas ni doy motivos pa que duden,
en vida de difícil resumen,
yo no estoy donde siempre estuve y espero terminar donde estoy seguir siendo,
quien soy en conexión con vida nunca perdida que es lo que me motiva,
aguantar a los de arriba pero tengo salida,
paciencia hasta el momento que esto termina y volveré a mi sitio,
esto es el filing para mis noches de humo, momento oportuno, me tumbo escribo,
verdades no esquivo, a instantes sigo pero cada rima sigue siendo un motivo,
sentido y fundido me vuelvo tranquilo mientras floto y boto al séptimo sentido
fluye mi estilo por que salen de mi sentido mucho mas de lo vivido y yo sigo,
sin ser el falso y carbón tu sabes bien quien fallo, quien cayo,
si en lo callaste te has perdido, te rayas motivos negativos que con esfuerzo retiro,
si yo fallo lo asumo no me molesta como el humo,
lo que me quema es la rutina que llevo o en la calle me quedo tirado y así no se levanta nada,
ahogado por tu soga, libertades mal tomadas,
yo también actúo y luego pienso que he hecho?
y de nada me sirve sacar pecho y tampoco tocas pecho,
pero alegra tu noche con un par de tiros, y déjame fundir tu turulo,
mientras pienso en mandar todo esto a tomar por culo
(Coro:) (Morodo)
Que yo no vine MC de alucine, tu siente mis rimas y los quieran que imaginen (x3)
(Souchi)
Despertarme cansado agobiado si es lo me ha tocado,
los pasos mal dados bien recordados, poca suerte de mi lado,
algo podría haber arreglado, reacciones tardías eternizando días malos,
hoy sigue raro, la tensión aumenta,
las pulsaciones ya no son tan lentas pero yo llevo mis riendas y aunque me balanceo,
no distorsiono, yo pongo buen tono, háblame de crema no de raperos malos,
una escena que me quema con un modelo,
yo no conecto me pierdo en noches de canciones al viento,
por aki el movimiento no evoluciona en conceptos si no en sampleos cojonudos,
tarde o temprado se determinan si te avecinan,
el mensaje estaquima si estas fuera de tu sitio,
hoy tiras de estética de nombres de los que lamen tu culo
y van de duros hombre por que el hip-hop nos corresponde,
no escapa esa pasta no es realidad solo es pasta,
se maska pero no se traga como esa mierda de los alternativos,
esos chicos siempre llevan tira en los bolsillos,
con chulos modelillos me vienes de guay pero yo se lo que hay
y a la hora de la verdad prefieres kedarte a pencar,
inculcar tus ideas de pestoso y aun que no sea tu salida la violencia,
en el fondo no me llena pero vamos metes leña al que nada enseña,
no me deslumbres dame muestras que el que kiere no apuesta, sabes
(Coro:) (Morodo)
Tengo una pregunta que hacerle a esa gente,

Ya odia rastafari nyahbingui chant en la mañana

sacerdotes abusando de niños lesbianas y travestís en Buckinham,
en la casa blanca duerme un asesino

y estoy yo seguro que esto que digo lo van a negar.
Tengo una pregunta que hacerle a esa gente,
a esas personas que quieren que no cante,
y es que como van ha hacer para callarme,
yo le digo friend no van a poder no, no.
Yo no entro en su juego desprendo fuego,
rasta no traga hipócritas ni fariseos, rasta,

yo no miento no no, mira a tu alrededor oye bwoy,

Es muy difícil crear y muy fácil destruir
es muy fácil bajar yo mas difícil es volver a subir al monte
donde naciste por ley es muy fácil negar difícil reconocer
es muy fácil caer difícil es volverse a poner en pie en el combate
no dejarse vencer
es muy fácil ser dócil y débil mostrarse ingenuo confusión y frágil ante aquel que quiere que cumpla sus planes desde las tinieblas y resistirse bien difícil es
muy fácil seguir el camino del mal difícil darse cuenta y rectificar
es mas fácil vivir ficción que realidad y es difícil enfrentarse a la verdad
por eso escúchame yo no vine pa matarte solo pa cantarte mi friends
escuchame yeye yo no vine pa contarte solo pa contarte que ee
no se trata de religión mas bien se trata de amor propio
y no querras acabar en un ataud impidiendo la vida de otro
recuerda que nacemos puros en lo mas alto pero poco a poco
vamos bajando vendiendo nuestra alma al diablo a cambio le una eterna condena
es muy facil tomar una decisión y es difícil tomar la correcta
es muy facil pasar por una situación y difícil aprender de ella
es muy facil proponerse una meta y difícil que las cosas no se tuerzan
resulta difícil cuando hablas por convicción y muy facil si es por experiencia entonces recuerda rasta te envia fuerza sabiduría y paciencia es divina ciencia haciendo uso de tu conciencia alejate de la bestia
Bajo la influencia babilónica, tiene cosa irónica y son de la vida bíblica,
paso de teoría prefiero la práctica sobre los hechos cotidianos de la vida
lógica, mientras mano mágica falta en Africa, tienen menos de todo pero mas de na, y en España ke? En España da igual porke con africanos no tienen na ke pactar, autómatas son en la ciudad como robots matando al personal, jornada laboral, a fin de mes cobrar, pagar todas la deudas y vuelta a empezar y asi disfrutar de tu no libertad, delincuente tu serás por fumar gancha, búscate una novia ke te sepa cocinar y plancher y sea buena para hijos criar, porke ke mas das lo ke puedas opinar si la vida ya esta programa prepara, diseña hipócritas ese es el plan.....

Gente de la tierra,de dios para el hombre
babilon persige, rasta la esconde
unos solo fuman pa entrar en ambiente
Mientras militares keman montes,

Porque se que hay intereses, desde empresarios a jueces
Funcionarios cobran comisiones,por poner sanciones,
a los ganjaman's, los que huyen del clenque.
Y diganme... Que problema tienen con la yerba del Rey
Y diganme... Que problema tienen con el Ganja
Y diganme... Por que no dejan el paz al Rasta?
Yo me pregunto, qué será mañana
y aquellos chamanes en la calle jugaban hoy
Y al pasar por el parque, Yo les vi
Y recordé que hace un tiempo niño yo fui
Con un ángel de la guarda a mi espalda
cuidando de mí llegué hasta aquí
y hoy le doy las gracias aquél a mi lady y a mi family
Porque sin su ayuda hoy yo no estaría aquí
Y es que en el barrio hay muchos peligros
por eso me pregunto qué será con esos niños
le pido al señor que los ponga en el camino
Para que no caigan como peces en las redes del maligno
ohhh uououo noo!!, dame calma sabiduría y fuerza para vencer en la batalla
Pues son jóvenes sus almas
y ellos aún no saben de las formas que maligno se abasta
Y más que una mirada mucha más que mil palabras
yo les doy todo mi apoyo a cambio... no pido nada
solo verlos crecer
Que pasado el tiempo ellos no cambien la pelota por las balas
Más que una mirada mucho más que mil palabras
Yoooa....yoooa.... les dedico este tema
y para que el día de mañana sus comandos no tengan que cargar con su condena
(:coro:) (x 2)
Pero, van de mafia, dicen que el que manda
Así solamente se van a encontrar varas
Sirvan de mafia, juegan a las bandas
pero aquella rematan y a ellos lo acaban
Van de mafia va, por la calle van imponiendo un respeto que nunca obtendrán
Van de mafia, cuénta no se dan
que para obtener respeto primero hay que respetar
Van de mafia, quieren ser gansta man, pero por ahí no va no va no va, no noa!!
Yo me pregunto qué será mañana en el barrio uoooo!!
Unos se estarán matando, otros disparando, otros enterrados pagando
otros robando pa comprar lo que estan tomando y todas sus madres llorando
para que sepan ya!

Shadows in a guarded room
The air is thick with boast and ruin
Rusty voice intones a mournful tune
Painted eyes will never see
A sign of life where none should be
A wooden mouth begins a mockery
Such a night - a stay a home
Some things are better left alone
Graven images have come to life
On Walpurgis night
So it is the die is cast
Slaves of power, spiritless
Made to lie, to rule and t oppress
With gold and silver talisman
The reigns of cruelty in hand
Swaggering and vicious on command
Such a night - a stay a home
Some things are better left alone
Graven images have come to life
On Walpurgis night
He ho, the wind and the rain
We can watch them stand up, fall down
But all the same, they return freshly painted and shiny
Virtue is not welcome here
Stricken dumb with promises and fear
We're just mortal: no more safety in numbers
Such a night - a stay a home
Some things are better left alone
Graven images have come to life
There'll be no tears tonight
Slowly the shadows fall away in time
Now I know no future dreams
The things I have today are fine
And as I stumble through I find that I can choose
And lose the things I'm not afraid to lose
Hold your hour
Live today and let the past go free they said
Try again and I will do the best I can today instead
And as I stumble through
I find that I can choose
And lose the things I'm not afraid to lose
We move in circles as we go
With nothing to guide us but our souls
And we keep on looking for something that we must have
lost two thousand years ago
There'll be no tears tonight
Slowly the shadows fall away in time
Now I know no future dreams
The things I have today are fine
And as I stumble through
I find that I can choose
And lose the things I'm not afraid to lose
We move in circles as we go
With nothing to guide us but our souls
And we keep on looking for something that we must have
When I write my book I'll tell you all the tales I
never thought I'd tell
Cross the T's and dot the I's and reach into some dark
forbidden well
'Cause I have walked between the lines for years and I
am ready to confess
And crawl into the looking glass and put my hand into
the viper's nest
All in my book
In my book
In my book
In my book
I raised the cup of fury with the souls who sing the
songs of ancient lust
Drank the night to pieces then with sirens lying face
down in the dust
Stood upon an arid plain and watched the steel canyons
fall to blight
Sailed a handbasket to hell in time to see the devil
beat his wife
All in my book
In my book
In my book
In my book
Careful, careful with your eyes
Though the road is always empty
How my footsteps rise to taunt me
Who is this who walks beside me
What is the that's drawing nearer
A burning bush is calling, another tower falling
A cloud of ravens rise and darken out the sky
The sea is boiling red under the thunderhead
The center cannot hold
The sacred flame has grown cold
Awakened from a fitful sleep to find we're in no
ordinary dream
We take a closer look inside for nothing's ever quite
the way it seems
This book is coming to an end and there's so much I
wanted to include
Like all the deep dark secrets that I've heard from you
and you and you and you
All in my book
In my book
In my book
In my book
In my book
In my book
In my book
I know I can't hide it anymore
And I'd fell so much better if I told you
I was seeing pictures from a world naive
I was really lost I do believe
In another time
Living in another time
We all have minds that wander, I know
But mine always seems to want to go
To a city full of sound and light
Underneath a sixteenth-century sky
In another tin
Living in another time
In another time
I thought I was in the renaissance
In another time I
I had a head full of lofty thoughts and big plans for the
world
In another time
science and art and alchemy
In another time
Were just part of everyday life for me, in 1503
Now life is more convenient, I guess
We Seem to be a little more grotesque
But only by comparison, I find
That I am truly living in another time
I see the noon and the noon see me
The moon looks down on what I long to be
There's grace in the heat and grace in the hall
But the Grace of God is over us all
Sudden move in the stars
Whenever I look to the skies I can get lost
Stand in a mirror and know that I am a fragment of
something greater than I
Spicks of dust in a moonbeam gathering shape and potent
Of greatness waiting to light
Even the wind in the trees is the allegory
Everything that is and ever will be
Is the allegory
We can stand with both feet firmly on the ground
And let our heads get lost so thoroughly in the clouds
Conjure up visions of power and romance, destinies
changed
In the twinkle of an eye
Stumble and fall, always searching, desperate to gain
some reason
In the life
But even the wind in the trees is the allegory
Everything that is and ever will be
Is the allegory
I see the noon and the noon see me
The moon looks down on what I long to be
There's grace in the heat and grace in the hall
But the Grace of God is over us all
Sudden move in the stars
Whenever I look to the skies I can get lost
Sweat in this foundry of lies
Hammer my soul until it looks something more like me
Forge a chain that binds us like slaves to a dark and
omninous dream
While even the wind in the trees is the allegory
Everything that is and ever will be
I remember
Engines mad me
Exercise in strategy
Then o'clock siren, class change quickly
'don't be afraid, happens every day
Just about this time
You'll get use to it
We built the Starfighters
We built the Galaxies
Oh, to wake up
In Bomber City
The flightpath is my home
Got no need to cry
Aircraft sing me solemn lullabies
Bankers in bermuda shorts
Savoring an airshows
Take a look how fast those rascals fly
We built the Starfighters
We built the Galaxies
Oh, to wake up
In Bomber City
We thought we ruled the skies
It was a source of pride
Things have really changed there since then
Nothing's quite the same since back when
We built the Starfighters
We built the Galaxies
Oh, to wake up
We are starving
Waiting for the truth
We need answers
More than living proof
We are more than flesh and blood
Here on the radio
We are voices
in silence be accused
We are seekers
Waiting for the news
We are time bombs
Ignited by our views
It takes both hands to hold what you really need
And both eyes to see what you do to me
When you're so very quiet
Like feathers in mid air falling
Are you sad to see us go?
Your hands were tied
What could you do?
You are fleeting
A photograph in time
You are folding
And unfolding in my mind
You are more than a face
You are the morning dove
The reminder to me that
its always love
When you're so very silent
Like snow falling
Are you sad to see us go?
Your hands were tied
What could you do?
Oh, I was sad to see you go
Your hands were tied
What could you do?
When you're so very silent
Like feathers in mid air falling
I was sad to see you go
Your hands were tied
What could you do?
Oh, I was sad to see you go
My tongue was tied
Abandon ship, abandon hope
We are never what we show
A cold heart for my weakest moments
Such fragile lives for the weaken
Come on
Abandon hope, abandon dreams
Cause things are never what they seem
A blind eye for my weakest moments
Such fragile lives we are leading
And I heard from the satellites
The static we hear
The ringing of fear
We are who we are
And were changing
Yeah
Imagine Earth from outer space
Spinning faster, changing shade
A cold heart for my weakest moments
Such fragile lives we are leading
And I heard from the
The static we feel
The proof that it's real
We are who we are
And we're changing
I walk to the edge
Watch the sun burning red
And I know from the saddest songs
The words that we hear
They help us to steer
We are who we are
And we're changing
And I know from the satellites
The static we hear
The ringing of fear
We are who we are
And we're changing
He wakes up and wonders how his life has passed him by.
And his solitude compels him, something’s wrong I’m losing all my drive.
Please believe me it’s better if we stray a little bit.
I feel so tied down, burned out leaving is the only way around.
Hey - picture it, would they save us from ourselves or leave us here to die?
We have laid in this for days, would have been high if you noticed me.
Where do we run to when times are wrong ? we are here not long.
She wakes up and wonders why her son has stranger’s eyes.
All these failed prescriptions fill the void, but leave us empty in our minds.
Hey yeah picture it - would they save us from ourselves, or leave us here to die?
We have laid in this for days, would have been high if you noticed me.
Where do we run to when times are wrong ? we are here now.
There you go again excuses fill the plate no need
to contemplate we just leave it up to fate.
We have laid in this for days, would have been high if you noticed me.
Head down as I decide whether or not to abide,
Head down head down for more and it’s what all the fighting’s always for.
So quit all your whining quit the complaining-
Head down better lead the floor.
You bleed back, bleed back discussions’ over and done with
so why don’t you spend some time outside yourself true you may have the final word,
but by default it takes one great mind to lead our selves right back outside.
You oughtta blame the man on the string he’ll bring an end to every thing
so quit all your whining quit the complaining…..
Head down, Head down protection is everything everything we need.
You bleed back, Bleed back discussions over and done with
so why don’t you Spend some time outside of yourself true you may have the final word,
but by default it takes one great mind to lead our selves back outside-
so blame the man on the string he’ll bring an end to everything.
Should have paid attention to
everything you said you’d do.
But you don’t ask for change.
Your politics are strange.
You would waste our time,
and blow another line.
But you don’t speak for me - NO you don’t speak for me.
I remember when we fell
And you found some piece of mind
Hide behind that awkward smile
You give me when you lie
And this house seems cold without you
Could you do it that way?
Did you ever care?
What a cold let down
(let down)
Out to bring me down
(me down)
What a cold let down
(let down)
Well I don't feel it that way
I will paint your bedroom blue
To remind me of the way
That I feel about you
And would you leave us here this way
Like a book upon your shelf
That you haven't read in ages
I remember when you left
And I thought my heart would break
Into pieces on the floor
Reliving my mistake
And this house seems cold
Could you do it that way?
Did you ever care?
What a cold let down
(let down)
Out to bring me down
(me down)
What a cold let down
(let down)
I would paint your bedroom red
To remind me of the anger
As it swells up inside
Would you leave us here this way?
Like a record on the shelf
That you haven't played in ages
This house seems fine without you
I guess I never really knew enough
Or needed it to say
What a cold let down
(let down)
out to bring me down
(me down)
what a cold let down
(let down)
I don't see it that way
I would paint your bedroom white
For a fresh start in the morning
When I wake up, alone
Would you leave us here this way?
Like a record on your shelf
That you haven't played in ages
Would you leave us here this way?
Like a picture on your shelf
That you haven't seen in ages
I been through this lifetime struggles and pains
Hustle and change, rustle and chains
Bangs and gangs and still the game wont change
Its all switched up now messed up now,
those were hard days but this is aint tao
More like sin pow, the new stuff begins now
Over style, girls is go diggers for figgaz
And when you care for em they kiss the game goodbye
Like jada, I cant lie the game done made me a semi hata
But maybe lata I can hold my heart in the area to play its part,
Stage the mark
my life one failure afta another
trying to discover Where I fit in,
in a place where the dumb get dumber
yo yo
you got the girls that get smothered chopped up and hated
wit multiple lovers,
all I got is my real brothers to hold me down,
I already said when I die know one gotta hold me down
Release like leo decap
Frozen like sea tap, digital remaz life is untold stories
Money maybe one day, but for now its coporate
Still standing like a titan, never that and I aint lying
Game like Tyson jerked from me slide tackling like byson
Anyway im here to stay up son though I cry nightly
I wont be outgunned the almighty,
Easy to say but live the place day by day
the body aint place Where you stay yo…….it like this..
(chorus)x2
its like I cry…..everday that passes by…..
even though ive paid the time
Its seems I still gotta live a lie yo uh uh….
rats and shit moving under your legs
Papers as beds tears have fled in the past
Maybe the future, I pray to the lord for help
I might even call on Buddha, no one will help me
The road that I walk I walk alone
No friends loved ones no one to tear when I gone
Wandering the earth lost cause in the mirth
Imperfect yet I wont be discouraged
Mal nourished from walking on fatige
Wit fatigues, having to scour the earth barely able to breath
Survive on blocks that would bring hero's to their knees
And yet I stand able waiting for the next breeze
(uh huh)
It's a cold world
I know you heard the words before
But you wont know how real before your life takes a detour
And everything goes downhill like meal course
And yet you still try to keep course
When lifes showing no remorse
Deep and depressing but second guessing
Lesson to blessings every essence
Step back and still get tested
that's why I sing on this song holding my own
I only wish that someone can aid me in my life going wrong… Make me go crazy
1x
(Chorus)
