I feel the intruder
And his will over you
Someone that we could blindly trust
But he came around
I don't know where I was
I don't know who I am
I hurt myself, watching you lying
Without emotions around
I need your shoulder
And what more did you need
Don't show me colder
Don't burn me like a memory
I smell the intruder
His eyes upon you
His hands are finding the way out
Erasing all about you
I need your shoulder
And what more did you need
Don't show me colder
Don't burn me like a memory
I need your shoulder
And what more did you need
Don't show me colder
Don't burn me like a memory
Too hard to believe
That something's gonna change
But I'm not dying , I need to live
Give our memories a chance
I need your shoulder
And what more did you need
Don't show me colder
Where is Mary living today lost in a year or in a day
Little girl grown up today left in a haze in 78
Mary please give me a sign let me see the colour of your eyes
Oooooooo You ' re just a dream
Comin' in the rain coming in the light we fly again
Comin' in the sun walk into your life we'll cry no more
I know the time will break me down
How was the afternoon I remember it came too soon
Did mother came to bring you home fadin' away in moments's gone
Secret life and young desire feel the love we all have shined
Ooooooh You 're just a dream
Comin' in the rain coming in the light we fly again
Comin' in the sun walk into your life we'll cry no more
I know the time will break me down
I’m Mary
I’m three
I’m older than my brother
To day I go to school with my mother
She told me
I could be happy
And I’ve put my new dress on
But what ‘s going on ?
We went into such a big home
Then mother left me all alone
A lady who’s name was Mrs Trade
Said to me"Mary don’t be afraid"
Mother, mother take me back home
She told us a lot of nice stories
It was so funny
But when I spilled my milk on the book
She flared up and give me a bad look
The afternoom we went to the playground
There were many torps all around
But when I tried to taste the sand
Raging Mrs Trade tapped my hand
Suddenly a ball hit my head
Such a pain and I lost my midday’s bread
All the children were laughing
Alone with my tears I was thinking :
Lying world,
you never tell the truth
Lying world,
you say "can’t see the use"
No place
to live a human life
No place
to run, no place to hide
Blind world,
you never look around you
Blind world,
you say "can’t see the use"
No place
no place to run, no place to hide
You know the way you go
Just called no way out!
You know the way you go
Just called no way out,
Just called no way out,
Just called no way out now...
You know the way you go
Just called no way out!
You know the way you go
Just called no way out,
Just called no way out,
Just called no way out now...
Lying world...
Lying world,
you play a crooked game
Lying world,
you promise joy,
You give us pain
No place
to live a human life
No place
no place to run, no place to hide
You know the way you go
Just called no way out!
You know the way you go
Just called no way out,
Just called no way out,
Just called no way out now...
You know the way you go
Just called no way out!
You know the way you go
Just called no way out,
Just called no way out,
Let me live my life by Machiavel
(Roland De Greef - Marc Ysaye - Mario Guccio -
Albert Letecheur - Jean Paul Devaux)
Do you thing I'm nothing
Just nothing at all
I'm gona tell you something
I'm not the man you thought
Well you're not my gardian angel
I'll break the chain I'm sure I'm able
I know I can do it all alone
Now let me live my life
Let me go my way, go my own way
Let me live my life.
I'll step out of the moving train
I'll leave the ship before it sinks
No sorrow, no pain
From now on a brand new day is rising
I'll shut the door and pack up my clothes
I don't want any more of your laws
I know I can do it all alone
Now let me live my life
Let me go my way, go my own way
leave it where it can stay by Machiavel
Music : Albert Lethecheur
Words : Una Faravell - Marc Ysaye
Arrt : Jack Say
In time there is no place for you
In space there is no time for me
So I scream I scream the pain oh take it away
Leave it where it can stay
In time there is no space for me
In space there is no place for you
So I scream the pain oh take it away
Like the wind you 'll fly away
Like the time you 'll fly away
So I scream I scream my pain oh take it away
I met Johan 's brother yesterday
In an old sailor 's tavern
He told me the life of his twenny years old brother
Who just looked seventy five.
He told me Johan lived in a univers
Full of schizophrenics phantasms
The last things he wrote were
Someone must know my story
And the last things he wrote were someone must know my story
Someone must know my story
Someone must know my story
After a few minutes off conversation
I understood from where he came
Here 's Johan 's story maybe yourse
What ‘s the matter doctor
I’m always in a hurry
What ‘s the matter doctor
Do you thing I’m crazy ?
What ‘s the matter doctor
People tell me I may be
What ‘s the matter doctor
Is there hope to save me ?
I don’t understand
What ‘s happened to me
Everyday I ‘m under stress
Think I really could be relaxed
Floating out on emptiness
What ‘s the matter doctor
I’m always in a hurry
What ‘s the matter doctor
Please tell me the truth
What ‘s the matter doctor
Please give me the cure
What ‘s the matter doctor
Don’t say it ‘s no use !
I don’t understand
What ‘s happened to me
Everyday I’m under stress
Think I really could be relaxed
She wakes up before the morning light,
Thinking everyday is like a brand new life,
She knows how to use it!
Wild as the wind
Nobody knows it
Which way she comes
Which way she goes, she's free! she's free!
Anytime she gives all she has
With a smile upon her face, she knows how to do it
When she talks about little things
I realize how much I've missed
I can't believe it
Wild as the wind
Nobody knows it
Which way she comes
Which way she goes, she's free! she's free!
Wild as the wind
Nobody knows it
Which way she comes
Which way she goes, she's free! she's free!
I knew I was ready, ready to die Nathaly was gone for always ever
I knew I was ready, ready to die I' d never seen her back again
Oh someone tell me what 's happend to me, Gods, I hear sirens in my head
Oh girl, you'll never know how much how much I love
You love you love you so
I can hear beyond the grave
Johan's voice calling Nathaly
I remember, all their happy days
I wonder why they couldn't be together now
And I see up'on the sky
A little star shining differantly
Surely the star off Johan and Nathaly they must be together now
Everyday I’m wondering
If it’s only you
Every night I’m wondering
So I dream of you
Everyone is wondering
But who’s calling you
Time we need time
To steal time sometimes
And we’re wondering
Time to get time
To pretend a new life
But still wondering
Time we need time
To steal time sometimes
And we’re wondering
Ré intro
But sometimes we’re losing
Those fairytales inside
Anytime we’re counting
The price of our distress
Everyone is waiting for
A story they’d never write
Time we need time
To steal time sometimes
And we’re wondering
Time to get time
To pretend a new life
But still wondering
Time we need time
To steal time sometimes
And we’re wondering
Time to get time
To pretend a new life
In my forehead, a sheet of lead
Was seeping through holes of power-hammers
My cracked spirit sank into a heavenly wave
A cloud of ether discharged the ballast
A rainbow with gloomy glints
Emerged out of a split of velvet
Then all veiled...
As if a lobotomy was overcoming me!
Since they have cut my tongue
Another 's walking in my head
Following the scattering
Of misunderstood saliva
Cut hand grows up again longer
Tail of lizard tracked in a lemon clearness
Gouged out eyes are born again in my back
Eye of chameleon mottled in a rouge of meat
Hey Mary, have you bought the ten pounds
Of tomatoes at the supermarket?
My cracked spirit sank into a heavenly wave
Soon I'll hear the sound of my life
Soon I'll see the edge of my life
Soon I'll sniff the smel of my life
I remember your eyes, when you told me
You’re mine, my life
I surrender myself, falling into a dream
Of lies
And I still pay the price
Watching the time, what I’m still looking for ?
I’m just waiting for something else, I got to go!
Watching the time, life is a breath too short
I know I’m gonna hurt myself, I got to go!
I’ll remember your life , when she stole all of mine
my love
Now you know someone else who was trapped
By your vice, just lies
But he will pay the price
Watching the time, what we are looking for ?
we just wait for things to happen, and then we’ll go!
Watching the time, spinning out of control
I know I gonna hurt myself I got to go!
But some take life so easy
And I just try to learn
All the secret you got inside.
Watching the time, what I’m still looking for ?
I’m just waiting for something else, I got to go!
Watching the time, life is a breath too short
I know I’m gonna hurt myself, I got to go!
Watching the time, turning more and more
we know we gonna hurt our selves , and than we’ll go!
turn off by Machiavel
Making up in the morning
Get up, come down to breakfast
Still there on the morning
Sounds that have no meaning, makes no sense
Coming home in the evening
After a useless, stupid schoolday
Turn on the TV
Picktures flicker, nothing there for me
Everyday in and long day out
At home, at school, atcetera
I hear all around me
The same blah-blah which drives me crazy
Today I turn the radio off
Today I turn the TV off
Today I'm gonna turn on to rock 'n' roll
Just another grey morning
Instant coffee and shitty cornflakes
Turn on the radio
Plastic masticated emptiness
Trakking back in the evening
Feels that they're chatting my whole life away
Reach out for that tv
Picture flicker, sends me off to sleep
Today I turn the radio off
Today I turn the TV off
Today I'm gonna turn on to rock 'n' roll

town to town by Machiavel
(Mario Guccio - Marc Ysaye - Thierry Plas -
Roland de Greef - Luc O)
All our gear rides on the truck
Miles and miles, livin'on luck
I'm movin' on from town to town
Another train, another plane
Another place, it 's always the same
Just movin' on from town to town
Pick up my guitar and play again
Gigs are different but the move's the same, oh yeah !
Playin'hard all over again
Gigs are different but the move's the same, oh yeah !
Movin'on down the line
It 's a hot night, hot night
Let 's take another line
It 's a long night, long night
No time for getting tired
It 's a hard night, hard night
Movin' on from town to town
It 's a beautiful life
Sweet girl you take me for a rest
I might not even remember your name
I'm movin' on from town to town
I'm sorry girl, you 've done your best
But I'll be leavin' just like I came
Time is like a river
My mother used to say
All is in the river.
It could be cold, it could be wild
Sometimes soft and clear
So take a look around here
You know,
Time is like a river
Flowing through the world
Time is like a river
Running round and round
Time is like a river
It slowly slips away
We are all passengers
And the water gave us troubles
When the stream was growing
We must find a shelter
Time is like a river
Flowing through the world
Time is like a river
Running round and round
Time is like a river
My mother used to say
All is in the river
Flowing round and round the world
Running around and round
Time is like a river
Flowing through the world
Time is like a river
There 's a magic in the air
We go from here to hit the skies
There 's a magic in the air
It is a true magical night
No no panic in your eyes
To make a dream come true to night
I can feel it in your eyes
Don't know you but it 's allright
Coming back to what you know
Coming back to what you've done
We all missed a love or two
We all go to the real show
We all go to the final show
All you gotta do my babe
Is to look around your life
All you gotta do my babe
Is to kick your pills tonight
There's a magic in your eyes
To make a dream come true tonight
I can feel it in your eyes
We go from here to hit the skies.
Coming back to what you know
Coming back to what you have done
We all missed a love or two
We all go to the real show
We all go to the final show
Coming back to what you know
Coming back to what you have done
We all missed a love or two
We all go to the real show
We all go to the final show
There 's a magic in the air
We go from here to hit the skies
I don’t see the flame of love in your eyes
Tell me why you are as cold as ice
The way your silence turns around and round
Makes me feel that something’s going on
It’s all right, even if the might is right
We will take the life so easy
The hope will light our days
It’s all right, even if the might is right There is no
more fight left in me
So we can go our way
Now this life turns you upside down
In this swirl you are not all alone
So now one of us must go on before
We don’t have the same dreams anymore
It’s all right, even if the might is right
We will take the life so easy
The hope will light our days
It’s all right, even if the might is right
There is no more fight left in me
So we can go our way
All the memories now are gone
No regrets at all, the damage is done
It’s all right, even if the might is right
We will take the life so easy
The hope will light our days
It’s all right, even if the might is right
There is no more fight left in me
ronny runs by Machiavel
He runs, until the morning comes,
he got a fever inside, but he still goes on
Ronnie runs
Ronnie runs
To stay alive, he kills his days,
until his needs will be wasted, in the wrong way
Ronnie runs
Ronnie runs
Time pushed him away in a never ending day
Time pushed him away, he became his prey
In the race, killing the days,
burning everything around, that he couldn't get
Ronnie runs
Ronnie runs
And all the waste, drinking over run,
all he does is fall in a dream, a never-ending day
Ronnie runs
Ronnie runs
Time, pushed him away, to a never ending play
Time, pushed him away, he became his prey
Do you see, do you feel time is eating you
Do you see, do you feel time is killing you
SOLO
Time, pushed him away, to a never ending day
Time, broke him away, he became his prey
Do you see, do you feel time is eating you
Do you see, do you feel time is killing you
Do you see, do you feel time is eating you
The snow pearled the sky and slowly it melted drop by
drop
A rainbow of eight colours was hanging in the sky
Offered by the gods for the new season
Under a cleaned sky, as far as its blue bark
The mural notches bustled up like bursting scales
The hollow of the valleys swallowed the shade of
burning winds
A lemon clearness shouted out the reunion of the moon
and the sun
Breaking idols of the fading stars
The tree had no birds, no dead leaves, just flowers and
fruits !
There was no day, no night, just a lemon clearness
fareaway, the horizon was slowly wearing
Separated by the sea, a rock and a tree were tearing up
another horizon
It was the beginning of the fifth season
Seated on the stairs of the church a man was left in
the lurch
His barrel organ played "Jester", a tune of the
seventies
A little boy wasn’t laughing he just stayed there and
said nothing
With his little merry-go-round that he made turn on the
groundµ
He really knew it was not a dream
And while tasting a blu ice cream
Without having a good grouse
With his other mouth he cried
"Mother I want another" It ‘s strange but the boy was
When the seasons where only four !
The moon and the sun were shining in the sky
Blinded by the sun, the dying night
Closed her eyes.
Giants of concrete and glas
Blotted out the light from my eyes
New York City is a jungle without trees
Walking down the street,
My spirit was dying
Waterlilies were fighting
New York is a jungle without tears
Step by step, a man like you and me
Followed his white funeral
A smiling lady pushed a luminous coffin
Into a dark yellow pushcart
Beggars and tramps were joking
Slaver on their lips
A crocodile was joining us
"You 're all my friends " he said
"Don't be afraid..."
"I only want to give you pleasure
And take a little thing from you..."
"Believe in me! I'm a man of repute"
Beggars and tramps were joking
Slaver on their lips
A crocodile was joining us
"You 're all my friends " he said
"Don't be afraid..."
Last night in Hong Kong
With my best friend Shung Long
I read a sparkling jaw
Fell back upon New York City
Beggars and tramps were joking
Slaver on their lips
A crocodile was joining us
"You 're all my friends " he said
"Don't be afraid..."
" I only want to give you pleasure
Girl you made it down here tonight
If I can't see you, I feel you there
I never met you still I know who you are
We might have something to share
You spend your days with your friends on the phone
You love to stay out late
You're mother screams anytime you come home
But you have no time to waste
No one it seems ever told you
The words to feel good
Somebody knows how to please you
Will you believe me when I say
Somebody loves you tonight
You came here to see me tonight
Had hot lovin' on your mind
I didn't see you still I knew you were there
You never gave me a sign
Before I knew that you walked out with him
Ready to rave out late
You 're going somewhere that you 've never been
Follow your dream but wait
No one it seems ever told you
The words to feel good
Somebody knows how to please you
Will you believe me when I say
so long by Machiavel
MUSIC & LYRICS
Roland De Greef-Guccio Mario-Thierry Plas-Marc Ysaye-Hervé Borbe
You're my friend, not the only one,
But I miss you, it's been so long
I'm afraid you're travelling through a dream,
where you want yourself alone
Light!
Not afraid to leave it all behind
Without saying, so long!
So you dared to brave the rules of life
Now you're on your own
Light!
Forget our fears
Forget the night
On the other side we'll get it all
Forget our fears
Forget the night
They've got no reason, to erase our names
We feel a thrill, the real lies,
So we can't go wrong, it's real
Since you're gone, I still hear you sing
Now you're flying with the angels
Even if you're not here, your music remains the same
Now you're sailing all alone
Light!
Forget our fears
Forget the night
On the other side we'll get it all
Forget our fears
Forget the night
They have no reason to erase our names
We feel the thrills, the real life
So we can't go wrong, it's real
We feel the thrills, the real life
she's a snake by Machiavel
When she got no name, she is easy to find,
as desire inside the game, the sweet sensation is blind
When the reason is out of frame, it's the poison's fun
Naked, she's a snake on the floor
Naked, naked; would like to beg for more
I can reach everything, anything I want
Coz the gleam in her eyes tells me all she wants
She is naked; she is as a snake on the ground.
The pleasure without rules,
the luxury is inside it, it makes me feel cool, till I lose my last sigh
When the reason is out of frame, it's the poison's fun
Naked, she's a snake on the floor
Naked, naked; would like to beg for more
I can reach all the dreams, anything I want
Till a scream in her eyes asks me all she wants
She is naked; rubbing on the ground.
The best enemy I ever had,
all my body knows her, so when I feel so bad, she never saw the blurs
When the reason is out of frame, it's the poison's fun
Naked, she's a snake on the floor
Naked, naked; would like to beg for more
I can reach everything, anything I want
Coz the tears in her eyes tells me all she wants
Naked, she's a snake on the floor
Naked, naked; would like to beg for more
Naked, she's a snake on the floor
Naked, naked; would like to beg for more
Naked, she's a snake on the floor
Rock, sea and tree by Machiavel
(Marc Ysaye - Albert Letecheur)
Hidden in the shelter of the winds of torment
A rock and a tree were riding high
On a current of infinite nebula
From time to time, the sea,
With maternal gentleness,
Caressed the dreamy lovers with her foam
You know tree, there is beneath me
The power of the infernal Gods
You see rock, above me,
Billions of angels in heavenly chorus
We are the power and the glory edified
To defy all men and all Gods
The platinum armour we erected
In the wisdom of the third wave
Will never die...
Jupiter and Neptune hearing these
Defiant words call together
The paranoid counsel
The first time they had made council,
The Cyclope was defeated
For the glory of Ulyesses
They sent their strength and transcendant power
From the depth of the sea
And the height of the heavens
Thoughtless of the future, the rock and tree
Contemplated the sea
The slave, the sea, brought to'them
Magical fairy food and the cool wellbeing
Of the garden of Eden
The lovers turned their eyes
Towards the West
And low and behold on the horizon
The sea rising in a violent rage
Racing forward in a murderous folie
The sky black and heavy
Weighing upon this cataclysm
Which surged in fury
To annihilate the innocents
"Look the sea!
What does she want of us?"
"She 's going to destroy!
Stop sea! Stop it! "
But she fell upon them in thunderous roar
And in seconds they were no more!
They felt torn apart
In the depths of sorrow
And that bitter truth which was theirs
What remained the atrocious spectacle
To perceive each other thousands of miles apart
Separated by myriods of vengeful crystals
Which banished them forever
From the garden of Eden
"Do you know why I'm floating"
Cried the rock to the tree
Who felt oppressed by tons of evil liquid
The tree was silent
There was nothing to say
In another place, a tiny stone and a tree shoot
Were grooving together
And eternally they repeat these words:
"Jupiter, Neptune, and you the sea
No time to do It., with the wind she’s gone
I even got no time to feel my own life, roaming with
ghosts
No time feel It., with the wind I’ll go
And each word she signs burns my whole life
All alone, I won’t stay; I just need her on my way,
tonight!
No time to do it, many people around
I just listen to the roses, in my mind
I’m alone, on my way; I’ll erase all my days, tonight!
Solo
No time to do It.,
with the wind I’ll go
After all, no time to feel, my whole life! I’m roaming
save my soul by Machiavel
(Mario Guccio Thierry Plas, Roland De Greef, Marc Ysaye, hervé Borbé)
Save my soul
Save me from the lies inside
You've always been a million miles away
Save my soul
I don't wanna loose again
Where did you go you when things went wrong for me.
All you wanted was an end
All I needed was a friend
Don't you know I'm still afraid
Don't you know I'grow with age
Don't you know I'm still afraid
Don't you know we grow with age
Save my soul
Do we go on
I won't fight again
Do we go on
Million miles away
All you wanted was an end
All I needed was a friend
Don't you know I'm still afraid
Don't you know I' grow with age
Don't you know I'm still afraid
Don't you know we grow with age
Save my soul.
All you wanted was an end
All I needed was a friend
Don't you know I'm still afraid
Don't you know I grow with age
Don't you know I'm still afraid
Don't you know we grow with age.
Save my soul
All you wanted was an end
All I needed was a friend
Don't you know I m still afraid
Don't you know I grow with age
Don't you know I'm still afraid
Don't you know we grow with age
Save my soul
Save my soul
running in the dessert by Machiavel
As a trace heart rendering the night
I see his face through the full moon light
A falling angel in the desert
Blinded by the light
Leaving his trace across the night
From the next world
Now the sky turns red & grey
The silence ! Hurting, crying He's insane !
From a place over the skyline
Through the space he 's just falling down
The sky turns red over again
The silence crying, The silence hurting again & again
Running in the desert again
In the middle of nowhere
Waiting for an angels hand
Running in the desert again
I'm seeking you
Losing your image on my brain
In his eyes, there 's a ray of light To find the way
out, he knows he have to fight
Lost in the middle of nowhere All alone
He can't fly anymore The wings are broken
The wind blows a rain of mud & dust A storm of fire
A punishment from the gods
Now the sky turns red & grey The silence ! Hurting, crying He 's insane
Running in the desert again
In the middle of nowhere
Waiting for an angels hand
Running in the desert again
I'm seeking you
Losing your image on my brain
Running in the desert again
In the middle of nowhere
I’ll never surrender, ‘cause the sun is rising on my
I don’t pretend, my feelings for you will never fade
away
Sliding in the same direction
You’re running around, every night and day
Sometimes your heart is cold, when I’m on fire
You’re running around, like a blinded prey
Still looking for your dreams and your desire
Your desire
Nothing to hide, passion lights my soul as a sunrise
If you’re ready to ride, I will ride with you, to win
and share the prize
Roaming in the same emotion
You’re running around, every night and day
Sometimes your heart is cold, when I’m on fire
You’re running around, like a blinded prey
Still looking for your dreams and your desire
Your desire
Your desire
You’re running around, every night and day
Sometimes your heart is cold, when I’m on fire
You’re running around, like a blinded prey
Still looking for your dreams and your desire
You’re running around, every night and day
Sometimes your heart is cold, when I’m on fire
You’re running around, like a blinded prey
rumours by Machiavel
(Thierry Plas, Roland De Greef, Marc Ysaye,
Hervé Borbé, Mario Guccio)
Don't believe all rumours you hear, do you think that it 's true !
Don't believe the ones who lie, how do you know what's real ?
Words to deal words to steal
Words can knock you down and drag you into the dark
It doesn't tell the truth it's feeding the confusion under spot lights
If you hear bad things about your friends, do you think they're true !
When you're watching the news, all you see, all you hear, seems the rule!
Words to deal words to steal
Words can knock you down and drag you into the dark
It doesn't tell the truth it's feeding the confusion
Too many untrue stories
Covered up in mud
Too many false impressions
Feeds your head with lies
Too many untrue stories
Covered up in mud
Too many false impressions
Slandering your friends around you, they give you a reason to shout
Enemies are behind you around, watching your life
Words to deal words to steal
Words can knock you down and drag you into the dark
It doesn't tell the truth it's feeding the confusion
Too many untrue stories
Covered up in mud
Too many false impressions

Something else of a dream on our own
You pretend you’re swimming, alone
With a smile upon his face,
A blind angel is standing by you
fading your steps behind us, to show
We’re not alone, on the river of shame
And I’m seeking the time, it’s always the same
Feel like reading the skies, hoping soon, we will find a
Far from this river we will step away
We’re not alone, on the river of shame
And I’m seeking the time, we were the same
People come around, on the river of shame
And I’m not all alone to drown again
SOLO
We’re not alone, on the river of shame
And I’m seeking the time, we were the same
People come around, on the river of shame
And I’m not all alone to drown again
He had stayed in the bottom of a wardrobe
For two years, he had not made anybody laugh
Waiting in his black room hoping that the door would
open
He had not aged one day
His face had kept all its features
And his eyes were shinning with the oncoming of the
show
Finally the day so much hoped for had come
He could see his rebirth
First his head tactfully rose like a child still asleep
Then his chest and slowly his arms and his legs
I could see he was in good running order
Softly he made a smile of satisfaction at the puppeter
Everybody wanted to see the show which looked like a
feast
And when the lights went out he appeared inq moonbeam,
He was dress in white with a red rose on his heart!
He did pirouettes
He mimed a rope dancer
Walking in the air
A loving violinist playing the music of the fair
A little girl with a white balloon winked at him.
The puppet stopped, and slowly he pulled the threads
which
He did the same with his arms and his head
Now he could do his show all alone
The children were charing harder and harder
The crowd was delirious . He could see he was in good
running order
Softly he made a smile of satisfaction at the puppeteer
Before leaving the stage.
He pulled the red rose attached to his heart
And he threw to the little girl’s feet

Who is this man just in front of me?
He will be mine, he will be mine
This man is just my kind of man
He is my kind, he is my kind
Who is this man just in front of me?
He will be mine, he will be mine
I'm gonna tell him he is so fine
He is so fine, he is so fine
C'mon babe don't hesitate
I got no time, I got no time
Hey girl don't get excited,
do you wanna drink something with me?
Hey girl don't get excited, sit down,
Be cool and let's tae it easy!
Don't talk about anything I feel ready
You will be mine, you will be mine
Don't move that way you're like fire
I burn inside, I burn inside
Hey girl don't get excited, come on,
relax and sit down with me
Hey girl don't get excited, sit down,
Be cool and talk all this through!
You don't care what I'm talking about
Takin' it easy
No you don't care not at all
Takin' it easy
No you don't care not at all
Takin' it easy
No you don't care not at all
I don't like when you laugh at me!

I can see some men walking in town
And I can hear them talking just like fools
And they just walk in their dreams
And they just go with the stream
But they’d better look at what ‘s real
So they will see over the hill
And they can bring to their sides
So many light in the night
And they can bring to their sides
So many joys in their life
I can see some kids running in town .
And they just keep on playing the game
And they just walk in their dreams
And they just go with the stream
But they ‘D better look at what ‘s real
So they will see over the hill
And they can bring to their sides
So many lights in the night
And they can bring to their sides
So many joys in their life
I can see some people made like men
No nobody knows
I’m in love with you
Thrills are in the air
No nobody knows
How it feel inside
Thrills are in the air
Nobody knows that I love you
Nobody knows I do
Nobody knows how I need you
Nobody knows I want you
You and me got life to share
You touch me in my soul
You ‘ve made me feel inside
What I had never felt
Take me where you go
I will be at your side
Until the very end
Call me whenever you want me
I will be there for you
Darling whenever you need me
I will come flying to you
"Do you hear the drums of your end
Of the world?"
For hundred of years he had been
Journeying around the cold planet
With his magical merry-round
He was very far in his trajectory
His little chimerical roundabout chislessly
Orbited the earth to entertain the citizens
"Do you hear the drums of your end?"
"Do you hear your end of the world?"
It was always the same cold reflectssong,
Coming across on the fourth ring
He wondered where that blue voice came from,
Always that voice!
The rainbows and the sunrise containers
Were attracted to another place
"Well after all it stayed
Just the ruins and blocs of steel,
The only survivors of the catastrophe!"
They had always listened to him,
Why should they stop?
Why should they stop now?
He did not really understand
Why he was the only one left
All other men had been disintegrated
By the light of the trip
So why he, he and his merry-go-round?
And yet, one day, all would cease
No one came to see him, no more
No one to listen to his song
Had his roundabout broken down?
And why did the rings stretch away
On another side?
"Do you hear the drums
Of your end of the world?"
All around him nothing, nothing left,
Only emptiness...
He perceived from afar streets
Playing ball just like before
He saw the children of the Return
Building tall museums
Where they went to hear
Rock And Roll music
The music that came
From the nights of Time
He was going to meet
The end of his world!
As he went, he caught a glimps
Of a huge brazier
Which was belching out strange death machin
Their favourite daintiness
With his merry-go-round
Firmly fixed in his mind,
Sitting on a wooden horse, off he went...
But, he knew that he'd come back one day
After the next great killing was done!
You've gone made the big time
People talking about you
I've read in the headlines
Newspapers talking about you
You were not yet a star
When you left me on my own
You hadn't gone far
Since you left me alone
Everywhere that I turn to
On the walls only you
I Seem to be followed
By giant posters of you
But not even you picture
When you left me on my own
You left me no picture
When you left me alone
I try to shake off that old love story
But everywhere a memory follows me
Let me be, I wanna be free
Everywhere all around me
Bring back those memories
Everywhere all around me
The past I don't wanna see
The story of my life
When you left me on my own
The story of my life
When you left me alone
I try to shake off that old love story
But everywhere a memory follows me
i'm not a loser by Machiavel
(Marc Ysaye - Mario Guccio - Albert Letecheur -
Jean Paul Devaux - Roland De Greef)
He was the first born, the first son of daddy dear
The first son of mummy dear
At the kindergarten he was always the first to finish his wee-wee
At four o'clock he was the first to put all his toys back in place.
He liked to hear people say: he 's been as good as gold
When mummy dear came to fetch him at school
He liked to hear people say : he 's been as good as gold.
" I must always be the first
there 's no other way for me
well I say it to you guys, it 's not a game !
I'm the first, the first one, I'm not a loser
No no no no no I'm not a loser
No no no no no I'm not a loser
I must hold all the winning cards"
Years never changed a thing
He was always in the foreground
The first to answer, the favourite of the teacher
He was the champion of the football team
And even with the girls he was the best, the hardest
A real ladies man, well a real romeo !
" I must always be the first
there 's no other way for me
well I say it to you guys, it 's not a game !
I'm the first, the first one, I'm not a loser
No no no no no I'm not a loser
No no no no no I'm not a loser
Well I'm a winner "
At work he continued to be the first
Quickly he became the best employee of the office
He was the favourite of the boss
He was always the first one to arrive
You could see him at six o'clock
The first in the queue at the bus stop
No matter if he caused pain all around him
He crushed all on his way
Only one thing mattered to be the first
He was the champion of the business
Soon he had his own firm
Soon he 'll be a millionaire
The beginning of the monopoly was there !
Take a train, take a rolling train
Take a train, take a rolling train
Oh! running on all over the country, day and night
His affairs quickly became the first in U.S.A.
Super clothes,super shoes, a superman
Super business,super benefits, super dollars,a superman
Super car, super women, super children, a superman
Super lover, super robber, super clear, he was a superman
"Oh business all over the world
I'm not a loser
I'm a winner, I've got what I wanted
I'm the greatest
The N°1"
It 's alright man, it 's alright
You 're the N°1 of the loneliness

I remember, the times you felt so strong
Lone pretender is theresomething goin' on
I remember, you were layin' down the rules
Ain't it funny how you've gone and lost your cool
I'm goin' my way from day to day
Makin' it in anyway
Years go by they're never alike
My time has come and I'm still the same
Everyday
I need it
Takin' my life by the feeling
Everyday
I need it
Takin' in it all where I find it
You were claiming, I would never make it through
You were laughing at the things I tried to do
You were smiling when you saw me strugglin' on
Things are changing, you have troubles all along
I'm goin' my way from day to day
Makin' it in anyway
Years go by they're never alike
My time has come and I'm still the same
Everyday
I need it
Takin' my life by the feeling
Everyday

heaven's rules by Machiavel
(De Greef Roland - Guccio Mario - Plas Thierry - Ysaye Marc)
You're naked on the floor
Your eyes are empty
I never saw you like that before
But I know how you feel
Losing yourself
Right till the end
To breathe & live
Breakin' all heaven's rules, you do it
Oooo some angels do it
To feel the thrills you got to do it
Breakin' all heaven's rules , you do it
I lost myself
In a cold wind
To breathe & live
Breakin' all heaven's rules, you do it
Oooo some angels do it
To feel the thrills you got to do it
Breakin' all heaven's rules, you do it
Breakin' all heaven's rules, you do it
Oooo some angels do it
To feel the thrills you got to do it
I won’t tell you, what‘s up in my brain?
When my heart is blind, causing you pain.
in a mirror of certainty, ever violated, you came on to
What’s in my brain?
Nobody knew, most of those little dreams I had,
Hearing the rain, I’ll feel blue
I’ll never lay my hand on you
But I miss you, as deep as my vein!
And my mind is blind it drives me insane
In a mirror a storm on the shores, ever violated, you
appear to me!
What’s in my brain?
Nobody knew, most of those little dreams I had,
Hearing the rain, I’ll feel blue
I’ll never lay my hand on you
I got too much pain
Nobody knew, I will always be in love with you
Hearing the rain, singing the truth
Forget your hate by Machiavel
(Thierry Plas, Roland De Greef, Marc Ysaye,
Hervé Borbé, Mario Guccio)
In the shadow
You're looking all around
As the black widow
Rising from underground
Waiting for her prey
Something is burning in you
That suckles the hate inside
Someone is breaking your heart
But soon you'll have your revenge
Forget your hate
Look inside yourself don't lose your mind
There is no blame
Find the way just to know who you are
It's not a shame
To realize that hate will take your life
Forget your hate
Outside the window
It is raining fast
Another wild night
Tearing you away
And push you down and down
But something is shining in you
You just need another chance
Someone will bring the flame you need to light your life
Forget your hate
Look inside yourself don't lose your mind
There is no blame
Find the way just to know who you are
It's not a shame
To realize that hate will take your life
Fly, I wanna fly
It's been a long long time
I'm waiting for you at night
Fly, I wanna fly
It's been a long long time
I'm burning for you at night
High, I wanna get high
You know babe
We're gonna make it higher tonight
Though I know you'll go your own way
Tomorrow is another day
Forget it babe gimme a good time
Fly, I wanna fly
It's been a long long time
I've waited for this magical night
Now you want it now
And I wanna see you cry
Wanna feel you flying tonight
Though I know you'll go your own way
Tomorrow is another day
Forget it babe gimme a good time
Fight, don't wanna fight
I only want you to be my lover,
My love tonight
Fly, I know we'll fly
It's been a long long time
I've waited for you at night
Though I know you'll go your own way
Tomorrow is another day
Work is done and you fade away
Work is done and you fade away
Work is done and you fade away
Work is done and you fade away
You can go your own way
Work is done and you fade away
Work is done and you fade away
No one will tell you where to go
Work is done and you fade away
No one will tell you what to do
Work is done and you fade away
Just livin’ on the road
Work is done and you fade away
Or livin’ in a palace
Work is done and you fade away

I wanna talk to you there,
I think it's time
No one's gonna turn my mind
They've tried
No one now can feel , the real thing
Who's gonna break the chain of rules
Run away , to breathe
run away to breathe
Sometimes we feel up & down
But it takes time
Until we change our minds
For our lives
So that we can reach the real thing
Look into yourself to give
Well I'm wondering, is it real
I run away to breathe
run away to breathe
run away to breathe

MUSIC & LYRICS
Roland De Greef-Guccio Mario-Thierry Plas-Marc Ysaye-Hervé Borbe
My heart is cold
victim of the situation
My soul leaves me to its fate
Under my skin
I feel like a resurrection
Ready to happen one day
Show me, dreams & fascination
Make me my day
Help me, give me your emotion
show me the way
My hands are empty
but filled with imagination
'know how to find, to find the way
Under my skin
I feel like a resurrection
Ready to happen one day
Show me, dreams & fascination
Make me my day
Help me, give me your emotion
show me the way
I'm on my way
Out of the night
Until the end the sun will shine ,I'm not so scared , Nothing to lose
Show me, dreams & fascination
Make me my day
Help me, give me your emotion
show me the way
Show me, dreams & fascination
Make me my day
Help me, give me your emotion
down on my knees by Machiavel
(Tierry Plas, Roland De Greef, Marc Ysaye,
Hervé Borbé, Mario Guccio)
Blinded by your law, victim of your greed
I don't want to show you, that I'm down on my knees
But the hate which grows inside our souls
Certainly will break it all
Now I know what you feel inside
Down on my knees
I got to go right now
Down on my knees
I need to live my life
I don't want to know, if you feel the breeze
I think this time, you will not get, something you came for
You will realize, that you're not alone with you
By the way
I'll tear away your tears
You'll put a spell on me
I'll tear away your heart
Curse by the evil one
A strange flame in your eyes
Burning truth & feeding lies
It's hidden behind the screen of your emotion
Down on my knees
I got to go right now
Down on my knees
I need to live my life
Haunted by your love, you give me the creeps
I don't want to show you, that I'm down on my knees
This is the night, I got to go, I got to break through
I realize, that I'm alone with you
I don't want to see you there, I really want to breathe
Cause the hate which grows inside of us
Certainly will not rebuild the trust
Down on my knees
I got to go right now
Down on my knees
I need to live my life
Down on my knees
I got to go right now
Down on my knees
Would you come down to hear me to night
I'd like to feel the "Warm" of love again
When you'll show me that you just don't care
No one says this would be that far that pain
Dirty hands to wash her face
Dirty hands to clean her brain
Well I need a day off, but it could "take a year"
Now I need to rest enough to ride a mile in a minute dear
This world is made of, all unknown that shares
The pulse of life I need to find my age
Dirty hands with an angel face
Dirty hands to clean her brain
Everlasting love was here gone with the knife which is made of steel
Everlasting love in hell join the line put down your name
Dirty hands are in paradise
Dirty hands are never alone
Dirty hands are nothing you own
Would you come down and listen to me
I'd like to feel the " Warm" of love again
Dirty hands are coming your way
Dirty hands knows how to play
Everlasting love was here gone with the knife which is made of steel
Everlasting love in hell join the line put down your name
Dirty hands back from paradise
Dirty hands with an angel face
Dirty hands to clean your brain
Dirty hands are coming your way
Here we go, here we dance
Here we go, here we dance
Wake up, get up!
And if they like to dance disco, oh good for them
And if they're happy that way, oh well good for them
It's not your problem
So let them dance
Disco, reggae or rock 'n' roll all night long
In the night, in the city
Everywhere in the world you can find dancing heroes
And if they like to dance reggae, oh good for them
And if they like rock 'n' roll, oh well good for them
It's not your problem
So let them dance
Disco, reggae or rock 'n' roll all night long
Clothes in fashion
Hair in fashion
Words and motions in fashion
This night he really has it all to be a great dancing hero
In the right hand a cigarette
In the left a drink
Orange juice, grapefruit juice
W(h)isky, rum or gin
Young girls, young boys grin under lasers
Red, blue, green, white and yellow lights

Voices told me
"'nothing you can do
to solve your troubles,
there's only the truth!"
All I see around me ,
eyes without faces
We're finally under control
Nobody cares, nobody knows your name
We're playing like clowns,
faces, without names
We're playing like clowns,
face to face, we laugh at shame
I still use you babe,
and then I fade away
you still use me babe
behind a mask of prey
Look all around us,
clowns playing a role
We're finally under control
We're finally under control
We're playing like clowns,
faces, without names
We're playing like clowns,
face to face, we laugh at shame
We're playing like clowns,
with faces, without names
We're playing like clowns,
face to face, we laugh at shame
We're playing like clowns,
with faces, without names
We're playing like clowns,
Short is life, to break our days, we make mistakes, the
dream is over!
So bright is the truth, we won't lose, over and over
Black snow's falling, like a veil on earth
The real thrill, of their lies feed wars anyway , the
world is blind
I feel it so fragile, when September winds, blows my mind
Cold nights are on the way, to take away all each other
All the fears are there to show that the devils grow with
one another
The real thrill of their lies feed wars anyway, the world
is blind
I feel it so fragile, when September winds, blow my mind
Black snow's falling, like a veil on me
The real thrill of their lies feed my innocence, the
world is blind
I feel it so fragile, when September winds, blows my mind
The real thrill of their lies feed my innocence, is the
City flowers by Machiavel
(Roland De Greef - Marc Ysaye - Mario Guccio -
Albert Letecheur - Jean Paul Devaux)
They grow everywhere in the city
Like weeds in a daisy field
They grow everyday in the city
They're all around you
They are encercling you
Just like a prey, day after day
Their silhouette deforms the skyline
Keeping the sun from shining
The sunbeams edge right and left in search of the way
And finally finish their life as giant shadows
Shadows of concrete
Shadows of sadness
I don't wanna see all these shadows
Twenty years of my life are gone
And since I've been here
I'm looking through the window of my room
In search of the sun, of the moon, of a hill of a river, of a glade
But all around me there is only
Odour of concrete
Colour of sadness
The city flowers are in power
Odour of concrete
Colour of sadness
I don't wanna see all these towers around me
Walking all alone in a long long a long white corridor
So alone on this floor
I hear people cry in the flat number 9
I hear people laugh in the flat numbert 6
Walking all alone in a long long long white corridor
So alone on this floor
I hear people cry in the flat number 9
I hear people laugh in the flat number 6
Walking all alone in a long long long white corridor
So alone on this floor
I hear words of love
I hear words of hate
I hear daily words
Going down in a dark narrow lift
So alone in that lift
I hear people cry on the floor number 5
I hear people laugh on the floor number 4
I hear words of love
I hear words of hate
I hear daily words
On the floor numbert 3
Number 2
Number 1
Now I'm out
Whispers and feelings, say all about you
I’m stealing time to breathe in you
I hope what you’re looking for,
As a part of the moon,
is what I want to live with you
Deep inside me, I always feel it
My chronic love disease
Every move you make turns me crazy 'bout you
Anybody knows how I'm feeling
My chronic love disease
Every breath you will take, I'll take it with you
Silence is screaming,
my dreams come true.
The secret games tell me the truth
My Heart is guessing,
when you’re feeling blue,
nobody knows as I know you
Deep inside me, I always feel it
My chronic love disease
Every move you make turns me crazy 'bout you
Anybody knows how I'm feeling
My chronic love disease
Every breath you will take, I'll take it with you
I’m still looking for,
a love without rules
believing the moments shared with you
Deep inside me, I always feel it
My chronic love disease
Every move you make turns me crazy 'bout you
Anybody knows how I'm feeling
My chronic love disease
Every breath you will take, I'll take it with you
Deep inside me, I always feel it
My chronic love disease
Every move you make turns me crazy 'bout you
Anybody knows how I'm feeling
My chronic love disease
In a golden cloud
I’ve never seen in all my life someone like you and I
love you
Would you try it again
why not do it again
I’ve never seen in all my life someone like you and I
love you
A kind off unconscious melancholy came into me and I
didn’t see the
Meaness off my old face since you leave me
I’m sure our life can born again
It ‘ s my only wish
Would you try it again
Why not do it again
I’ve never seen in all my life someone like you and I
love you
Suddenly I feel so bad when I think you could change a
day your mine
I know someone somewhere ‘s waiting for me and all my
fits off madness
I’m above my golden cloud oh love I know everything must
past

You always take the rough with the smooth
You can't be loved I know that for sure
Charlena
I want you to know you make me scream
If you told me only what you need
Charlena
No! You 're wrong you 're not kind to me
'Cause you got all you want
Money, diamonds that 's all you see
And my life stays in the dark
Charlena, Charlena, nobody can try to show you
To show you the way
Charlena, Charlena, I give you my life, my life
Gimme your love.
Stop making a fool out of me
Middle of the night you phone, I come
Charlena
You want me to be your special one
When sunrise comes you leave me alone
Charlena
No! You're wrong you're not kind to me
'Cause you got all you want
Money, diamonds that's all you see
And my life stays in the dark
Charlena, Charlena, nobody can try to show you
To show you the way
Charlena, Charlena, I give you my life, my life
champagne in amsterdam by Machiavel
Driving all night down the highway
Stoppin' in Amsterdam
Wet nights, bright lights in our eyes
Get a drink in a topless bar
The girls look like mannequeens
No live, no fun in their lives
Champagne in Amsterdam
Spend our money and time
No no honey you don't be mine
No no babe I don't wanna fly
Neon girl you window-dress the wall
Are you supposed to entertain the bar?
You'll do mean things for money
Don't wanna know who you really are
Forget your troubles, forget your pain
With a no name, no heart short-time honey
Champagne in Amsterdam
Spend our money and time
No no honey you don't be mine
No no babe I don't wanna fly

Calling you by Machiavel
(Thierry Plas, Roland De Greef, Marc Ysaye,
Hervé Borbé, Mario Guccio)
I'm calling you, over & over
What about you?
I got no answer
Against the wall, rebounding right in my face,
My words are an echo, it's fading away
I feel you don't know about me
I hear it from the voice inside
I know you don't feel much about me
I got more pain to hide
And I'm calling, I'm calling you over again,
Just calling, calling you over again
I'm seeking you, over & over
But where are you?
Far from the pain
Against the wall, rebounding right in your face
My love is an echo, and is fading away
And I'm calling, I'm calling you over again,
Just calling, calling you over again
And I'm calling, I'm calling you over again,
Just calling, calling you over again
I feel you don't care about me
I hear it from the voice inside
I know you don't think about me
I got more pain to hide
And I'm calling, I'm calling you over again,
beyond the silence by Machiavel
(Roland De Greef - Marc Ysaye - Mario Guccio -
Albert Letecheur)
Beyond the silence I'll cry your name
I've always been a prisoner behind my eyes
The reassuring fifter that let 's pass only what it wants
A thousand times I've tried to leave myself to find the truth
One day will the carpet of flowers be pollenated by unnamed steps
Then you came I was waiting for you, if only you knew howmuch
You attracted the bees which pollenated the flowers.
Through your eyes, your voice,
your kind of life the world is changing In your eyes
I m not looking for myself
I'm not looking for anything everything's explained it 's all so easy
I feel like a peblle on the bich that the sea has finally released
Drouned for so long in the doubt which only passed a little light and
many troubles
Here I'm in front of you lit from everywhere
Here I'm in front you, lit from everywhere
Now I feel acrop wind which caresses me with its fragrance
No longer will I spend my days in vain conquets from gliding time
For ages I have wanted these feasts, a smile on your face
the joys in your eyes
There were so many ways to run to the pale sundays of november
Like now to the birthdays of our childhood
Beyond the silence I'll cry your name
Beneath the oceans we 'll fly away
The clay of the ways will rise up itself
The dead houses will be alive provide you're in them
In the empty sunken shiping in a flood of love
I won't fal asleep on your beast
The wind had bent the crop when the mountebanks
came back from the hop
Lonely on the road, the drivers of the night followed
the light
and took the path to their next plunder or fight
The rain had beaten down the corn
When the mountebanks came back in the morn
Lonely on the road, the drivers of the night followed
the light
and took the path to their next plunder or fight
After a hard day far from the land of the sky
The cardboard clouds returned home without a cry
The lights went out one by one.
But this day was not like another one
The night woke up like a badly washed bitch
And the voice of the wind was going off pitch
I was always on the rack !
Like a wave that the beach throw back
‘Cause she thinks she ‘s looking too ugly
Or maybe cause she ‘s looking too lovely
Like a star lost in the sky
I had just one friend, my cry
And I heard people play and I heard people say:
"This year the crop will not be good
However we have worked as much as we could"
Roaming under mechanical moonbeams I was going down in
my dreams
Without a look and well oiled
I was alone with my world
Like the blind of the electric flock
But I knew that I would give them a shock
My saturated heart cried his pain
But what was rolling in my brain ?
I tried to forget what was said in the books
All their stories of crops and crooks
But somehow I can not talk
I still had this electronic walk
Like the blind sheep of the electronic flock
But I knew that I would give them a shock
My saturated heart cried out his pain
And my revolt broke out off my brain !
They were looking at me with big eyes of ice
But for me it was so nice
I was free ! I was me !
No more what they want me to be
Like the blind sheep of the electricflock
But I knew that I would give them a shock
And the rain did not beatdown the corn
Forty five years old
And so many questions
Twenty three years
I’ve been doin’ the same stupid thing
Forty five years old
And so many questions
Twenty three years
I’ve been doin’ the same stupid thing
And I wonder why I’m livin’ here
I wonder what I’m doin’ here?
How could I find a way
To be happy?
I hate that machine
I hate that work
How could I find a way
To be happy?
I hate the forman
And his stupid factory
And I wonder why I’m livin’ here
I wonder what I’m doin’ here?
Five o’clock: the end of the day
The end of the nightmare
All day long
I’m doin’ the same stupid thing
Forty five years old
And so many questions
Twenty three years
I’ve been doin’ the same stupid thing
And I wonder why I’m livin’ here
