I want home, I was feeling so alone
I was late, it was my mistake
I want to my room and sat there in the gloom
I know I've been bad, I know he'll be mad
I hear him coming down the hell
And there's nowhere to go, nowhere at all
I've been had, it was my mistake
He opens the door, his eyes are full of hate
DAD NO! DAD, LEAVE ME ALONE! DAD, NO! DAD, LET ME GO!
DAD NO! DAD, LEAVE ME ALONE! DAD, NO! OH, MY GOD, NO!
NO!
My mom comes rushing in, she says "Please, don't hurt
him" DAD gives her a kick, he slaps her around a bit, he
says: "SHUT UP, YOU BITCH! SHUT UP, YOU BITCH! I'll
KILL YOU! I'll KILL YOU! SHUT UP, I'll KILL YOU!"
DAD keeps hitting mom's face, and there's blood all over the
place I seid, 'Please DAD, please! It es my mistake! I'm the one
that's bad! I'm the one that's bad! Don't hit her DAM Don't hit her
DAD!"
DAD NO! DAD, LEAVE HER ALONE! DAD, LET HER GO! NO!
NO! DAD NO! DAD, LET HER GO! OH, MY GOD! NO! NO!
He want into my sister's room and he locked the
door He seid, "I hate you, but I love you more." I
heard her crying as the light want out I heard her
scream, I had to shout:
DAD NO! DAD, LEAVE HER ALONE! DAD, LET HER GO! NO!
NO! DAD NO! DAD, LET HER GO! OH, MY GOD! NO! NO!
I'm seriously considering leaving home.
Dad, I hate to tell ya
Sometimes I wanna slap you in the face
But Dad, I gotta tell ya
If you were gone I'd miss you from this place
Don't go away again
I just wanna be your friend
And if I don't say this now
I'm gonna be sorry
Don't wanna make this same mistake again
Dad, I need to tell ya
Sometimes I wanna walk right out the door
But Dad, I'm gonna tell ya
I'm glad that we don't argue like before
Don't go away again
I just wanna be your friend
And if I don't say this now
I'm gonna be sorry
Don't wanna make the same mistake again
Dad, I need to tell ya
Sometimes its hard to show you how I feel
Dad, I'm gonna tell ya
I wish that all our differences weren't real
Don't go away again
I just wanna be your friend
And if I don't say this now
I'm gonna be sorry
Don't wanna make the same mistake again
I see the older that I get
I'm becoming you
I see the older that I get
I'm becoming, I'm becoming you!
Dad I wanna tell ya
I was a kid, you were my dad
I didn't always understand
I wanted freedom, you got mad
You were concerned, I got upset
I didn't recognize you yet
And did you cry, I know I did
When I lied to you
I didn't want to hurt you
I just never knew I did
You never told me that you loved me
I know you didn't know how
I guess that shows we're much the same
'Cause I love you too and until now
I've never said those words out loud
I hope you're proud
To be my dad...
What are your secrets, do you pray
Is there a god that shows your way
I wish I knew...
Do you have crazy fantasies
What happens in your dreams
I want to know...
I guess you'll always be a mystery to me
But you taught me how to value life
And what else do I need
You're feeling older,
then ever before
and apple-pie order,
exists no more.
But he's sending you to school,
following a common rule,
frightened by the implications,
follow by indication.
Voices whisper inside your head,
no one will believe,
'cause he's your dad.
And at night,
he came and tried,
to take your light.
And at night,
he came and tried,
to take your light.
You were not even 15,
Weaping lonesome,
there's no one to tell,
that he came
and broke the shell.
Bodies land covered with lava,
makes you feel,
like a cadavre
wish to touch the sky,
only once before you die.
Voices whisper inside your head,
no one will believe,
And if I never spoke a word again, but this I need to say. I criticized and
analyzed you - that's worthless from today on, cause I changed my
attitude, forgive me father - I was rude! Man I think I made you feel
no good - the victim of my moods! I was such a teenage-little brat, no
appreciation for what you did... that's how it seemed to you, but I just
needed you to take me in your arms - keep me warm!
Forever - you'll be to me, much more than I show you, so much more than you see.
Whenever - we may disagree, it's like
losing a part that once belonged to me.
In childhood-days I had to be much more of you, much less than me. I'd like to be just like
my dad I swore, you meant the
world to me. But something changed
my attitude, I know myself if this is good or bad or anything to me - oh
father, let me be! I was such a dumb-ass little kid, no appreciation for
what you did... that's how it seemed to you, but I just needed you to take
me in your arms - keep me warm!
The further Im away, the more I'd love to stay, cause I had to learn today, that now I love
what I used to hate! wouldn't it
be nice, if we both hadnt changed and parts of our lives could have been rearranged. Now it's
got be too late to erase the
past, think about the future, think about the past, think about it fast... as long if
we have each other... as long as we have each other... as long as I don't
have to be what you want me to be!
Dad - please hold me! Dad - please keep me! Dad - please love me! But I will never be like
I had a ticket to fly so I boarded the plane
When a combat dressed stewardess shouted my name
I'm wanted alive yeah! I'm in for a trial
It's minimum mercy 'coz they've found my file
Hijacked and kidnapped 'n trailed and trapped
They fly me in I'm gonna pay for all my sins -- Now it begins
Yeah! I've found a place where girls eat men
Now I'm back in girl nation again
Girl nation
Female civlization
Girl nation
Female civilization
It's a female tale it's hard to use words
But I'm landed and stranded among oysters
Yeah! I heard a phone ring from deep down within
A friendly voice whistling under my skin
Yeay! I have to stop my enterprise below
But I'm not so sure the guy will let me go...
Yeah! My girls says I'm overdressed & my God says nothing at all
Yeah! It's funny how I'm in hip-deep feels like the D's got my soul
Overmuch I'm too much I'm overmuch
I'm way over Overmuch
I'm too much I'm overmuch
I'm way out of reach and way out of touch
And I roll on the floor that's what the floor is for
And I walk out that door that's what the door is for
In the night I'm way out of sight
But in the day I keep getting in the way Yeah!
You see my friends says I'm over the top & I should chill out the wild
But, you can see it in my face & my smile I'm gonna stay for a while
Overmuch I'm too much I'm overmuch
I'm way over Overmuch
I'm too much Too overmuch
Much Much Much Much Overmuch AhhYeah!
Overmuch I wasn't born as such
Overmuch But I've become way I've become way*3
I'm way over overmuch Overmuch
That's what I am, Yeah! I'm overmuch
Yeah, tell me... Overmuch
Enter the dreamhouse
Leave your history at the door
This place is for heroes
Like it's never been before
Don't guess a future
You don't know how or where it'll end
Senseless 'n' needless.
Maybe we'll learn to sleep again
It changes everyhting
But in the wrong direction
It changes everything
And what we turn into
Love conquers all
But evil won today
It changes everything
It changes everything ...
The world's falling to pieces
A sound so loud; it fades out slow
I've got nowhere to take you
Maybe except where I might go
The sky will be full now
Of money talking bombs
Carving their headlines
Just before the next one comes
It changes everything ...
Like birds that aren't in cages
They fly about on wings
Keep you awake forever
A dream that's constantly steady
Yeah, I can suddenly
Flower and sting
To pick a fight
I've let myself in
I whistle a funny note
Cut another throat
Hum a tune
Crack a skull - crack a joke
It's my lie
It's my legend
It's my cure
It's my medicine
It's my run
It's my promise
It's my light
It's my justice
It's my chainsaw
Division is mine
You'll see my chainsaw coming
I'm drawing the line
It's my chainsaw
Come see how it shines
I'm gonna cut out a living
I'm gonna cut out your kind
Oh, forgive me
A moment of pride
A trap by a demon
I'm not that type
My tears will change it
Don't even mention it
I'll glue it back together
See everything fits!
It's my tree
It's my prison
It's my lip
It's my reason
My candle
And my rain
Resurrection
Mumbling goodmorning & raising my head
A bad breath kiss to my pillow pet
I take a look at the day turns & stay in bed
Open my eyes when the day have died
I turned the world and I slept allright
Now my daymare is over I zip my jeans tight
Oh lord won't you bless this night...
From the pale lips of a youth who lay
I'm sleeping my day away
And when the night comes to the city I say:
I'm sleeping my day away
Yeah! With my pale lips in the pillow I say:
I'm sleeping my day away
After dark is the game I play
I'm sleeping my day away I'm sleeping my day away
When my dreams begin I'd be proud to be letting you in
With a smile on my face I guide our dreamboat in
So if you wanna travel along with me
You better sleep tight the rest of the day
You see I could be a sleeper it's not rest I lack
'Coz I hit the sack when the suns coming back
From the pale lips of a youth who lay
I'm sleeping my day away
And when the night comes to the city I say:
I'm sleeping my day away
Yeah! With my pale lips in the pillow I say:
I'm sleeping my day away
That after dark - is the game I play
I'm sleeping my day, I'm sleeping my day, I'm sleeping my day
I'm sleeping my day away
I'm sleeping my day away
Yeah! Now I've turned the world around yeah! I did it again
I'm sleeping my day away
And now I have to wear my shades down sleepers lane
I'm sleeping my day away
Yeah! All the good people have gone to bed again
I'm sleeping my day away
'Coz the devil's at work inside my brain
I'm sleeping my day away I'm sleeping my day away
A pigeon in a wet tree
On a blind day
I keep away from the ice
It's a frozen earth day
Froze time, froze place
Froze my tongue in between a yes & a no.
Sparrows in a line, rainclouds wander
I got nowhere to go.
Because my head's full of leaves
I'm naked like the trees
I'm making old October talk;
But all I do is crawl.
Won't you summer me soon
Yeah, won't you summer me soon
If the sun would rise behind a grey sky
I would fear for each step
That a tree would burst out of my mind
Mashed on the sidewalk
Grey snow in the recent rain
Serves to remind me
That winter is back here again
Because my head's full of leaves
I'm naked like the trees
In the cold November breeze
I just stand here and freeze
Won't you summer me soon
Won't you summer me soon
Won't you summer me soon
Won't you summer me soon
'Coz I just stand here and freeze
Yeah! I wake up; beaten, wrappen around the T.V.
Strange I was in bed when I slept...
And the tooth-paste's weird
'Coz when I try to talk; I blow a bubble instead
I got one shoe one'n'the other one's gone..
And my head's in the box full of bread...
Yeah! I know I've been tricked
- And I hate to admit
- I should've stayed in bed!
But I'll grit my teeth'n'take it
'Coz it's a day of wrong moves
I just know I've been chosen
To a day of wrong moves
On a day of wrong moves
A bad morning has broken
To a day of wrong moves
And my feet walk out; from under my brain
Like a high-wire artist I fall!
I keep forget; that I'm a neighbourhood threat
God's not polite at all
These days come without a warning
There must be a sign on my roof
It took a while just to see..
- That someone's pickin' on me...
And try to burn my fuse
But I grit my teeth'n'take it
Hey! It's a day of wrong moves
I just know I've been chosen
To a day of wrong moves
Yeah! A day of wrong moves
A bad mornin' has broken
To a day of wrong moves
I'm 6 feet tall with 20 movable parts
On a day of wrong moves
And sometimes they mess up'n'this is how it starts...
On a day of...
Yeah! Turn the radio on and up!!.
Hey!! I'm gonna call up work and say I'm dead!
That's a wrong move
Turn on the T.V. and forget
But that's a wrong move
Call up the cops'n'confess!!!
No that's a wrong move
'Coz I'm out on the wrong side of the bed!!!!
Hey, that's a wrong move
- But whatever I do; I have to make it through
A day of wrong moves
- I just know I've been chosen
To a day of wrong moves
Yeah, a day of wrong moves
A bad mornin' has broken
To a day of wrong moves
Hey! I'm 6 feet tall with 20 movable parts..
On a day of wrong moves
- And sometimes they mess up...n this is how it starts
On a day of...
On a day of wrong moves YEAH!
Say if you see a vicious lightning on the nighttime sky

What we need isn't systems
Or regulating plans
But bigger guns to shoot with
And a bigger type of man
Ill will
For good or ill my iron will
Is unrivalled still evil Ill thrill
This is the curse to me
I'll start your day with a shock
See one of these days 'bout 12 o'clock
The world will turn into a little rock
And it's going to fall down with the sound of a knock
I'm one of these guys who's nice to know
'Coz I know a face to go
It's just down the generation gap
I'll take you there in a red hot cab
And if you want I mean you really really want
I'll show you my hometown and it's down
Yeah, you can tell by the smell
So close you can hear 'em yell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Oh lord let me live to tell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
And meet your hosts
Lift your glass for a toast
Don't be afraid of the colors he wears
Look around all your friends are here
Now don't say you've had enough
Stay awhile stay tough
Grab his horns like you just don't care
We'll eat the fire and drink what's there -- yeah!
'Coz if you want -- I'll take you down, down..
I mean you really really want, I'll show you my hometown...
Let's stay until the end -- the very end!
And to be saved by the bell
So close we almost fell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Yeah! You can tell my the smell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
To the edge and back and to the edge again
Too hot for the D.J. and too hot for his friends
C'mon party!!
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Yeah!!!
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Oh lord, let me live to tell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Please, I can't stand the smell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
We played this part of this song for a year
Now all we need is a little singing...
And it's gotta be great 'coz it ruins my ear
When the guitar-wall is ringing..
Hey! We've been circling the airport
To give what we've got; and still some...
To small to be seen'n'to big to control
- Treated like a walkin' bomb
To doom-de-doomsday
Even if we start today
- Wel'll be big in L.A.
Rock'n'rock radar can't pick you up
Comin' on a low frequency
Rock'n'rock radar can't pick you up
A stain on the screen is all they'll see
Ass'n'trouble some one broke a string
- But who cares - We have an aeroplane yeah!
It takes more than a budget to keep us away
- It's the; "Bound to entertain-ya-mania"!!
With international niceness
On recycled vinyl'n'tape
Yeah! With a new rage; We'll find backstage
Press our bellybuttons'n'escape...
- To doom-de-doomsday.
- Even if we start today..
- We'll be big in L.A.
Rock'n'rock radar can't pick you up
Comin' on a low frequency
Rock'n'rock radar can't pick you up
A stain on the screen is all they'll see
Rock'n'rock radar can't pick you up
And go ahead! - Call emergency!!
Rock * Rock ** Rock *** Rock'n'rock radar...
Comin' on a low frequency
Rock'n'rock radar can't pick you up
A stain on the screen's all they'll see
Rock'n'rock radar can't pick you up
You're too small; You need backin' up!
Rock'n'rock radar can't pick you up
- And if the radar's mistaken - you'll be big in Copenhagen!!
I was driving home late one saturday night
Suddenly I saw this flashing light
A big hole in the ground I thought it was a lie
It was a sattelite It fell out from the sky
Now I'm forty feet below
Running my own show
Isn't that wild
The programs allright
'Coz it's my sattelite
Yeah wild
Hello there at home
I'll be your host tonight
I give you x-rated nightmares your mum wouldn't allow you to see
Tom and Jerry and films about the birds and bees
So turn your big dish down and recieve my lot
Forget about the news workout on the 700th club
Now I'm forty feet below
Running my own show
Isn't that wild
The programs allright
'Coz it's my sattelite
Yeah wild
Hello there at home
I'll be your host tonight
Hey, I'm the guy there on the wall and I'm all dismembered parts
Yeah, I got not arms or legs: So go ahead and call me - Art!
I'm a stick of dynamite and I'm smiling with delight
And it's o.k. - 'coz, they all stay away when you need them the most
Serving up another dream into everybody's empty heads
Stirring up another scene into everybody's empty heads
Whipping up another style into everybody's empty heads
Hoping that it brings a smile on everybody's vacant face.
And now I'm floating in the sea. 'Coz I'm the guy that lost his job
Yeah, I lost my arms & legs, so go ahead and call me: Bob!
I'm a stick of dynamite and I'm smiling with delight
And it's o.k. - 'coz, they all stay away when you need them the most
Serving up another dream into everybody's empty heads
Stirring up another scene into everybody's empty heads
Whipping up another style into everybody's empty heads
I grew up under a stetson in Omaha...
But my mama she told me
I wouldn't go far
Now I'm out on the highway
Every night & day
Just driving the cattle
From N.Y. to L.A.
Me & my 18 wheeler
Across the USA
Me & my 18 wheeler
Every night & day
Now my mom & dad are proud to see
The stickers on my window
And my Disneyland t·ee
The diesel engine take me away
Way across the USA
Chorus
Singing: Yiiiiipiiiii - yiiiiipiiiii yiiiiipiiaai
This diesel engine takes me away
Singing: Yiiiiipiiiii - yiiiiipiiiii yiiiiipiiaai
It's far too big
For my feet to step by
The heart of standing is:
-I cannot fly!
I'm so involved
I can't give it up.
I don't feel like winning,
Though I'm on top
See where it takes you
And where it takes me
Either homefires burning
Or we both go free.
Bigger than ever
The sun is a star
Hold me together
I'm flying apart, yeah!
You got a way
To keep me on your side
You make me so small,
I stand sideways and hide
See where it takes you...
Bigger than ever ...
See where it takes you
And where it takes me
Either homefires burning
Or we both go free, yeah!
I need to be afraid, said the kindweak man
As he lay cuddled up in his bed with those whispers around his head
Yeah, he'd come to nothing in a way - in a way that left him
With nothing to say but: o.k.! Yeah, his eyes only worked one way
There's no such thing as paranoia, it's always twice as bad as you fear
And the thing that destroys you, is that you had the answers right here
There's no such thing as paranoia, it's always twice as bad as you fear
I told you I told you I hate to say I told you so.
Old scars, but the cuts were new, said the girl, who loved many
But trusted a few, yeah, it's true - 'coz she feared anyone new
She lend out her feelings of pure affection, he kept the collection
And the missing piece of her heart - Yeah, her eyes only looked that far
There's no such thing as paranoia, it's always twice as bad as you fear
And the thing that destroys you, is that you had the answers right here
There's no such thing as paranoia, it's always twice as bad as you fear
I told you I told you I hate to say I told you so.
There's murder going on inside...
Yeah, 'coz you only see so much through the human eye
There's no such thing as paranoia, it's always twice as bad as you fear
And the thing that destroys you, is that you had the answers right here
There's no such thing as paranoia, it's always twice as bad as you fear
Straight out of frame'n'bend out of shape
Nothing's real x-cept the money that we made
Staring at the place where the 2 walls meet
Yeah! - Take a chair'n'have a seat...
Well, I should see it as a brand new start
But I'm all Adams apple'n'a f-f-f-fast beatin' heart
My nerves they twist'n'they jerk
See no drugs will do the work
And I'll tell U for free
How I started stopped bein' me
'Coz U won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness
I got to tie my head to the T.V.'n'unplug the phone
Bad Craziness
See the shadows dancing' on the cieling
Say, do U hear what I hear?
Like a T.V. no one watches
My head's filled with Yeahs'n'Overmuches
Walking trails on my livingroom floor
I feel that life won't be the same as before
Like an x-plorer; lookin' for help
I'd be happy to find myself.
And join the temple of hope
To keep my balance on this globe
'Coz U won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness
I got to tie my head to the T.V.'n'unplug the phone
Bad Craziness
I had 2 feet on the ground now I'm almost gone!
B-B-B-Bad Craziness
'Coz U won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness ...
It's a bird, no a plane, it's a maaan insane!
You won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness
I got to tie my head to the T.V.'n'unplug the phone
Bad Craziness
I had 2 feet on the ground; now I'm almost gone
B-B-B-Bad Craziness
Now you won't believe what I believe when I'm alone
Bad Craziness
Bad Craziness
Yeah!
Bad Craziness Bad Craziness
Anything for a good night's sleep
Bad Craziness
I'm counting nightmares instead of sheep
Bad Craziness
Yeah! See the milk's in the fridge
And it's turning into cheese
If I'm so smart; how come I ain't rich?
- No one knows'n'no one sees...
My moral compass went out of course
And I ran aground
U gotta watch how you get...
- But what the hell what the heck!
-- I mean, I wrote out the check!
It ain't the money you got / No it's the money you spend
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
- See it's already a mess
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
The Visa's, Diner's'n'Master, Express
The cold hand of currency
Grips my heart at night
Right now it's raining unpaid bills
From an unknown height.
Though the story ain't that funny
There was once when I had money
I act like I got it / Pretend I know
- It's minus 500, 000...
It ain't the money you got. / No it's the money u spend
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
See, it's already a mess
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
The Visa's, Diner's'n'Master, X-press...
- Makin' fun o' money
It's the D.A.D.'n' the I.R.S.
Yeah! I ain't got no hot water
And the cold's running thin.
I keep conversations from a public phone
- In this place I call home; I'm livin' in...
Makin' fun of money
¥ $'n'all...
Makin' fun of money
All rolled up in a ball.
Makin' fun of money
And with a tremblin' hand:
Makin' fun of money
- I pay what I can
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
- No, it's already a mess
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
The Visa's, Diner's'n'Master, X-press
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
The D.A.D.'n'the I.R.S.
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
Yeah! It's already a mess
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
No'n'I know; 'Coz I tried it!?
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
- It ain't funny no!
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
- I'm way behind
It ain't funny makin' fun of money
There was a real thin line
Between right or wrong
In those Walt Disney times
When my parents were young.
But the line has disappeared...
And you wonder where it hides...
And you wanna go out; but you stay inside...
I got run over by truth one day
Didn't see the red light
Since the accident I've walked this way
- I only did what felt right...
But from this day on; it's either: grow or pay!
Grow or pay
'Coz I got run over by truth one day
Sometimes the sky's so grey
That you cannot see beyond it
And even the wildest of dreams
- Can't take those lines from your forehead
Yeah! I know there's a bill
- And it's gonna make it's way somehow
With and excuse and a bow; I'll be paying it now:
I got run over by truth one day
Didn't see the red light
Since the accident I've walked this way
- I only did what felt right...
But from this day on; it's either: grow or pay!
Grow or pay
'Coz I got run over by truth one day
Grow or pay
From this day on it's either: grow or pay
Grow or pay
Grow or pay
I got run over by the truth one day
And since the accident I've walked this way
Didn't see the red light
But from this day on; it's either grow or pay!
Grow or pay
My tongue's tied and sliced in two
And wagging at both ends...
Yeah, I've learned to talk -
Both sides of my mouth makes sense
You'll see the skin of my teeth
But you won't see a smile
So here it is, the big truth
Hiding in the little lie...
My throw decides my aim
And with a phony voice
- Unserious to the end
As if I had a choice...
Here's my heart; my hope's drowning
Here's my eyes; the light is blinding
Here's my hands; my feet are running
Here's my head; my ass' coming ... yeah!
I'm naked but still stripping.
Luxury tends to be the same every day
But I know misery's for each in his own way.
I count on amputated fingers who I call a friend
The end is hard when brought about
By what you thought made sense...
My throw decides my aim and with a phony voice
- Unserious to the end as if I had a choice...
Here's my heart; my hope's drowning
Here's my eyes; the light is blinding
Here's my hands; my feet are running
Here's my head; my ass' coming - yeah!
I'm naked - but still stripping.
Some people live so close
To their bones; with just themselves to be
But I run around; inside myself
- Like something's after me
I take off my skin
Underneath there's nothing
Everything's gone ... A naked skeleton!
Piece of an arm piece of a leg
A piece of my tongue
And peace for everyone...
Here's my heart; my hope's drowning
Here's my eyes; the light is blinding
Here's my hands; my feet are running
I'm looking at the sky, I'm trying
Not to cry, coz' it's over
The're turning down the light
It's late now
I guess it's time to say
Goodbye...
Coz it's after dark now
And Disneyland is closed
We've been served
Icecold beer
And Waldy is our host
It's after dark now
And Disneyland is closed...
The party is over
The night is here
Let's bring out a toast...
Well its the end of the show
It's time to go
Along the cliffs at night
Were taking you home
Hey take a look at the park
What a beautifull sight
It's after dark now
And Disneyland is closed
We've been served
Icecold beer
And Waldy is our host
It's after dark now
And Disneyland is closed...
The party is over
The night is here
Let's bring out a toast...
It's after dark now
And Disneyland is closed
We've been served
Icecold beer
And Waldy is our host
It's after dark now
And Disneyland is closed...
The party is over
The night is here
Wonder when the sun will set today
People don't care either way
Some are lookin' for work
Or slaving away
Another golden autumn day
See the fallen leaves are dollar bills
And everyone's a millionaire
I will keep away from morning's grey
A private sun is shining down all day
Of all the golden mornings
This one's so much better
A golden dream is talking
Making friends with strangers
Golden way
Golden nights
and days.
We look in all places
Where it might be near
Make the noise
It likes to hear.
The part that doesn't age
Drifting back to childhood ways
I will keep away from the morning's grey
A private sun smiles down all day
Of all the golden mornings
This one's so much better
The golden dream is talking
Making friends with strangers
Of all the golden mornings
Spelled with golden letters
Upon a gold arrival
Golden dreams for strangers
Golden way
Golden nights
For tomorrows unpaid fears - now I'm seeing future years
It's not death - it's hell I fear - Yeah, but still I come and go
What I pay to see the show - Yeah, right now it's all I know
'Coz in all those cloudy hours when your demons seize your brain
Yeah, you think, you're going crazy, but I'm going back again.
Yeah, I'm going back again
Yeah, moving walls of sound up to my neck, but I can't drown.
The rooms so small I can't fall down. I'm feeling lose,
But never free noone but myself to be. Oh, I wish you were like me
'Coz in all those cloudy hours when your demons seize your brain
Yeah, you think you're going crazy, but then you're coming back again
Yeah, in all those cloudy hours. see it's a game within the game
Yeah, I felt that I'd gone crazy - I'm going back again.
Yeah, in all those cloudy hours when a demon seized my brain
Yeah, I falt that I'd gone crazy - But I'm coming back again
The night they took him to the graveyard
It was moonlight; call of the wild
They forced him to bury his father
Oh boy, he was only a child
He grew older, meaner and vicious
And the glance of his eyes got malicious
He thought about revenging his father
He sweared he would turn out as another
Call of the wild
Call of the wild
Call of the wild
Call of the wild
He travelled on trail wide and narrow
He would draw and shoot at any shadow
Checking the decks with his back to the wall
Hiding the tracks of his lonely call
The blood on his hands was still dripping
Hunting by instinct and no sleeping
He remembered the face of the gunman
Who slaughtered his dad the same evening
Call of the wild
Call of the wild
Call of the wild
Call of the wild
The night they took him to the graveyard
It was moonlight; call of the wild
They forced him to bury his father
Oh boy, he was only a child
Call of the wild
Call of the wild
Call of the wild
Come on, call of the wild
It's the call of the wiiiiild
Gently my eyelids close, I'd rather be good than clever
I'd rather have all facts wrong than no reply whatever.
I learned before I could speak with those "being patient eyes"
When God created my kind. But he forgot to tell me why
So gently my eyelids close.
All alone, at home I sit - I'm very tired of it
Burn the midnight oil or pour it on my salad
I lost the thread I thought I had...
Led by hearts & ears - memory lagging behind
No shame being a fool, I got many things on my mind
Pick up the phone on first riiiing - I never get out anymore.
There's nowhere to go, but back and there's quicksand outside my door
So gently my eyelids close
All alone, at home I sit - I'm very tired of it
Burn the midnight oil or pour it on my salad
I lost the thread I thought I had. I lost it - I lost it. Yeah!
Is that a shadow - or a hole in the floor?
And what's that noise outside my door?
Heart and clock slows down...
And the sand reverberates with a tremelous sound
On a diet of water and thick air
I inhale the heat and exhale my share
Barometer's climbin' up their scales
Heat shimmers and the horisont sails...
I wouldn't know 'bout the governments policy
But the waterhole-water looks like coffee!
Time stopped'n'heart slowed
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
A full 20 miles wide.
Lies glowin' pebbles'n'nothing beside...
And man starts to boil
Can't help being born above a lake of oil
The distant battles don't shoot blanks
- Soon it's goodbye'n'many tanks
The long shadow used to read like poetry
- Now the waterhole-water looks like coffee!
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down that dusty 3'rd world road
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
- Walkin' thick soled
Down-down-down that dusty 3'rd world road
Yeah! Down!
From the steamin Mekong delta
To the shores of Tonkin bay
Bombs of yellied gasoline
Is making night as bright as day
And the mogul's hard tank masters
Adore their new grenades
And the D.A.D. find their 9 shells
Are great for border raids
Yeah! I'm superfurious
I've done it again
I reach 50 when I count to 10
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left
For the pilgrims
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left
For the pilgrims
And you can shake your fist at the T.V. set
And you can slam your hand in the table
And you can cry and curse
Through tightlocked teeth
Just as hard as you are able
But you can't run away from trouble
'Coz there ain't no place that far
No fuel left for the pilgrims
Yeah! That's just the way we are
'Coz I'm superfurious I've done it again
I reach 50 when I count to 10
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left for the pilgrims
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left for the pilgrims
This is tower again, do you read me? You can get the girls & the
videomachine but the fuel you asked for... You cannot have!
What?! Blow me to heaven!
Jihad I'm getting so mad I'm getting so mad
.Who's mad I'm mad, so mad
Jihad I'm getting mad
Like a trip in luxury
A little ship with you and me
We won the lottery
We sail on silver into the sunset
And we'll live to be a hundred
A kiss between the legs - I wonder how
Just a kiss - A kiss makes it better
A kiss between the legs - yeah, somehow
One day it's chicken, the next day it's feathers
A kiss between the legs. Yeah
-Whenever you find what you seek
It's "Be kind to clitoris-week"!
Oh la-la-la.
On a journey ruled by love
A little luck and true romance
Your ticket you'll find.
Is booked and paid for in advance
So put it back in your pants
A kiss between the legs...
Deep in your eyes I see
that you are life to me
If you're the kind that wait
Please hear my wish, grant me my request:
-I want to live between your breasts!
A kiss between the legs...
Yeah, whenever you build a home
Just like an indian
I chant and dance around
A shiny new room
With a shiny new sound
Today I woke up screaming
-Hello, my evil twin
Who's the old and boring
Like a change of skin
Yeah, I tried forever
Forever is like chains
Now the chain is torn
Inside this quiet form
Is a roaring thunderstorm
Friends stopped by
Left when they learned
All having wasted, time and concern
Today I woke up screaming...
Yeah, I'm for longer living
And I'm for laughing loud
Now I'm the kind of person
I warned myself about!.
I let a lie come true
I even cared enough to lie
Receive what I transmit
And slowly close your eyes
Yeah, to unlock our locked up love
And set it free
You need a complicated key
You need a key as big as me .
You were almost on my mind
Yeah, and though I'm doing just fine
I have hurt myself in many ways
Back in nineteenhundredandyesterday
Yeah, I think of you every time
Every time I leave it behind -
Back in nineteenhundredandyesterday
And when I lie in bed
And I'm going through
What's been done and said
It slips into my head
You open up one door
And then you're faced with many more
Yeah, I know all of them well
I keep my questions to myself
You were almost on my mind ...
Hey, I thought I wanted it
Hey, I thought I needed it
To unlock our locked up love
You left the key and then you walked off
When the day goes into itself
And into my veins
And your hands are caught with mine
You are in my veins
A breeze in the curtains of time
Silhouettes of people in line
Yeah, while the chill wind blows
You're in my veins
Attacks and strategies are new
Rearranging my attitudes to you
Yeah, I fear that things aren't as good as I hoped
Yeah, I hear through the phone, that you sound so remote
No, I don't cry - it's just a candybar stuck in my throat
I just choked - Yeah, I just choked
I'm liquid - whenever you're near
I'm in your veins
Not the same alone so I fear.
I'm in your veins
So strong that you have no wish
You're safe from enemies
But I know where you go
I'm in your veins
Attacks and strategies...
Yeah, when you said it - you didn't mean today
Surely you said it - but, you meant yesterday
Some other time you said, jokingly,
The hope in me - awoke in me.
Choke - hey, I just choked
I'm countin' the cattle: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...
I'm countin' the cattle
Just to check if there alive
I'm counting' the cattle: 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
I'm countin' the cattle once again.
Well, the first little cow
She went for a climb, fell off the
Mountain - and then we were 9
The second little cow, she went out
For a date
Discovered it was Wolfie
And then we were 8
I'm countin'...
Well number 3 & number 4 they were longhorned chicks
- Met some horny bulls
And now I'm only countin' 6
Number 5, 6 & 7 went out without their key
The're hanging at the butchers
And I'm only counting 3
I'm countin'...
Well the 8·9 said: - We're never havin'
Fun! They packed their things
And left! And I'm only countin'
Well here we are
Me and Molly
She is brown-spottet, cheerful
And she's jolly
Our son is a muuhtant
- But who gives a damn
- I mean, when the folks
Downtown, calls us:
Mister and mam!
There's many a difference quickly found
Between the different people walking around
But you know it's a strange illusion, chaos and confusion.
When the tree of life is cut down to where
There's nothing left, but a toothpick of despair
So instead of support you - we find it's cheaper to deport you!
I carry it over my shoulder like a lance
A pole with a banner sayin'; T-To-Tolerance!
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
Some have more than some will ever get
A farewell to arms; a farewell to legs
You know it'll only get worse, when it stops getting better!.
The smell of a dozen countries cooking
The whole beserk package on end while you're looking
There'll be no red light that stops us when the road is ending
I carry it over my shoulder like a lance
A pole with a banner sayin'; T-To-Tolerance!
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
Yeah, It'swhenit'swrongit'sright!
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
It'swhenit'swrongit'sright
Yeah, I left my past
I hitchhiked away from bad times
Now I try to get used to
The freedom to speak what's on my mind
When it turn to tears ... I wonder why
- The dreams were under my pillow
But, there are no answers
Yeah, love is a riddle
Yeah, so many times
When I complain about life
I'm unsatisfied
I guess it's not about the car that I drive
- Or the house I can't buy
It's dry tears that I cry
I know that all I need is
That it's easy and free
Between you and me
Yeah, tear down my littlewall
And drag me away from old trouble
I feel there's a hand now
That keeps me from gettin' too close today
Yeah, I know I'm in trouble
A case of the unkindest kind
But I resent being reminded
About what's already on my mind
When hope beats high
And I wake up with a sleepy grin
The dream I fell asleep to
Just blew up; I know I never win.
I'm prayin' to a God who always says.
I'm prayin' to a God who always says: No!
I'm down on my knees for crying out low.
I'm prayin' to a God that always says: No!
The light at the end of the tunnel
Is nothing but the burglar alarm
Praying to a God that always says
I'm prayin' to a God that always says: No!
As if each drop of rain is tryin' to get at me
Yeah, the joke's over
And it feels as though my heart's empty
And I can't sleep from hearing
All the things I never said.
Because the dream I fell asleep to;
Is just a cloud above my head
I'm prayin' to a God who always says.
I'm prayin' to a God who always says: No!
I'm down on my knees for crying out low.
The light at the end of the tunnel
Is nothing but the burglar alarm
Praying to a God that always says
- I'm prayin' to a God that always says: No!
Yeah, I know, like a shadow when the sun is gone
And it seems the things I wait for never comes
I need someone to believe in me
Yeah, I need someone to throw blue sky at me
Praying to a God who always says
I'm prayin' to a God who always says: No!
Praying to a God who always says
Praying to a God that always says
I'm prayin' to a God who always says: No!
Praying to a God who always says
Yeah, to a God that always says: No!
Yeah, I'm down on my knees for crying out low
I'm prayin' to a God that always says: No!
The light at the end of the tunnel
Is nothing but the burglar alarm.
The God who always says: No!
To the God who always says: No!
The sun went up
Red and glooming?
Spread heat and light and dust
All over Wyoming
There she went for ever and ever
While I'm standing here on Never Never
Indian girl, where've you been so long?
I'm standing here, can't you hear my song?
Oh Indian girl, where've you been so long?
I'm standing here, can't you hear my song?
I was standing above
And my tears were falling
Looking down on my love
While her tribe was calling
There she went for ever and ever
While I'm standing here on Never Never
Indian girl, where've you been so long?
I'm standing here, can't you hear my song?
Oh Indian girl, where've you been so long?
I'm standing here, can't you hear my song?
When that sun went up
Red and glooming?
I lost my heart, my light my love
Way out in Wyoming
There she went away for ever and ever
While I'm standing here on Never Never
Indian girl, where've you been so long?
I'm standing here, can't you hear my song?
Oh Indian girl, where've you been so long?
I'm standing here, can't you hear my song?
Oh Indian girl, where've you been so long?
Can you ask a big jet to listen
Wave goodbye to the cares of the day
A million mirrors turning their heads now
Lose the ground; we're up and away.
A secret bag for passports and cash
A bottle of aspirin® to chew in the crash
A lift into the silence above
It's allright, let's fly.!
Hey little airplane.!
Do you know where you're going to take me?
Hey little airplane.!
You know you're always getting it your way.!
Balanced on the tip of the mountain
Unknown people all around
Don't uou think that we've been up for too long?
Still, I'll never want to come down.
But, it's all a false solution
Back to rags and revolution
One place is as bad as another
Oh, man. We're gonna land.!
Hey, little airplane
Do you know where you're going to take me?
Hey, little airplane
Do you know you're always gettin' it your way!
Hey, little airplane
Do you know where you're gonna take me?
Above the clouds
It's a beautyful day forever
Above the clouds
The day will last forever
I was out in the wild
Trying to catch some supper
And bring it home to sweet mama.
But when the pony headed back
To our home valley.
I knew I'd been gone too long:
- And I crossed the Rock River the day before she died
I reached home just afer dark.
Looking for mama
But she was nowhere on our land...
So I kicked the frontdoor open
Saw the rope above her
And the shadow of the dirty gunman...
- And I crossed the Rock River the day before she died
I chased him through Arkansas
From Texas to Missouri...
He took me up north
From Saint Antoine To Saint Louis
He was haunted
But I had the time
I wanted him back
To the scene of the crime
- And he crossed the Rock River the day before he died...
Well, we reached Rock River
And we reached the other side...
He looked back
Kinda fraid for his life
I pulled my trigger
And I hitted him
Right between the eyes
And then I roped him up to mama
To the roaches & the flys...
Rock River Rock River
Rock River Rock River
Right now no song on the radio could be too stupid for my heart
Wind me up and let me walk...
I've got no strategy but to suck up the sear and tear the earth apart
Man like dog can be taught not to talk.
Yeah, those who remember me as half good company
As a man who saved himself through irony
- Don't tell me anything - if I hear a secret - I'll burst
Don't tell me anything - unless you wanna hear the worst
I'll never tell anyone what they haven't already heard
Don't tell me anything - if I smell a secret: I'll burst...
My tongue just wanna get rid of the truth - yeah, it's one big misery
And then right here, where silence's king
It goes against the grain of who I thought I was
A bird drops in and I start to sing
I bump into furniture and step on peoples feet
And I say the things I shouldn't say to those I meet...
So don't tell me anything - if I hear a secret - I'll burst
Don't tell me anything - unless you wanna hear the worst
I'll never tell anyone what they haven't already heard
Don't tell me anything - if I smell a secret: I'll burst...
Yeah, those who remember me as half good company
As a man who saved himself through irony
- Subtleties... It's a mean attack of honesty!
- Don't tell me anything - unless you wanna hear the worst
I'll never tell anyone what they haven't already heard
Don't tell me anything - if I hear a secret - I'll burst
Look at that guy in those tight leather-pants
He can't sing and you can see he can't dance
And soulfinger's spinning; throwing his hair
He's got nothing to say; He's just happy 2 B there
Look at his friend and look at his face...
He's got a 1 track mind'n'a 2 stringed bass!
On garbage drums with a license to swing
Pete sets the pace to anything...
But I don't care - No!
'Coz by the order of the police'n'sweet olde Walt
Yeah! We do as we please...
It's the Disneyland law - Disneyland law
And we don't need no more no
We got the Disneyland law - Disneyland law
Yeah, it's so far out; It makes anarchy a bore
What the critics defined as presence of mind
Was nothing but a wish 2 be 4 of a kind...
And though we don't share the same label
Each of us is a can of tomato...
From lower ego to upper i.d.
We're climbing up on the social tree
From cellar to t.v. - Arena to bowl
To penthouse-view from misery...
But I don't care - No!
'Coz by the order of the police'n'sweet olde Walt
Yeah! We do as we please...
It's the Disneyland law
Disneyland law
And we don't need no more no!
We got the Disneyland law
Disneyland law
Yeah, it's so far out; It makes anarchy a bore
Disneyland law
Yeah! We're doing our duty
Disneyland law
Following a track
Disneyland law With our pistol foreskin back!
481914
Anyplace U haven't been?
This ain't open territory...
We're building a road-block
- On your guard, boys!
- Ohmygod there's a maniac in here.!.
Yeah! By order of the police
- We do as we please
Wanna hear something funny?
- We print our own money!
Disneyland law
Disneyland law And we don't need more
We got the Disneyland law
Disneyland law
It's so far out it makes anarchy a bore
Disneyland law
It's the beauty of the duty
Disneyland law
When following a track
Disneyland law
I got hair in my ears
I got hair in my nose
I got hair on my back
And between my toes
When the time comes & my hairwash is due
I'm gonna use one ton of shampoo
But don't give me those sentimental eyes
Coz I'm proud & my hair is nice
It's not fair when people they stare
I love the colors I wear
I wont cut my hair
I wont cut my hair
Oh no, I wont cut my hair
Coz I'm proud of my hair
And like in the funny fairytale
I dry my hair the Rapunzel way
U just climb up the six floors
To my hairy home
& I fix u a smoke in the blend of my own
Yeah, I'll make u a hot pot of tea
Take off your clothes feel free
And get down in my hair
And make me insane
Lets get airborne on window pain
It's not fair...
I would die without my hair
Yeah right, I'm playin' in the band
And I would love to be your private Disneyland
I'll be your own amusement park
Then you can ride me
And ride me after dark
If they send me to the rows of death
For having illegal dope
I will order as my last meal
Before's the chair
Hamburger french fries n coke
Take those scissors away
I wont cut my hair
'Cause I'm proud and my hair is nice
I love my hair
I'm in love with my hair
Making the the worst of a bad situation with an ants patience and a fleas strength
Like a kid about to squash an insect - I'll break it down and build it up again
Yeah, mad days to shut out the pain - the 7 sins - the sorrows seven
You seek wild friendships, but never a friend - it's always mad days to shut out pain
If you can't have all; have some more of the bitter best or the sugared worst
Yeah, the blackest night on another planet - a hand out of space; picking you up
You seek wild friendships, but never a friend - it's always mad days to shut out pain
It's the same situation - same head - my eyes are fire-engine red
Staring at a hole through space - the pain goes away - the wound stays...
Mr. Smarty held a party - Yeah, and noone came then his brother
Held another - Guess what? - Yeah, just the same!
Still so common, no matter how hard they try.
Eat the dead; but leave the wounded... Yeah!
I can take it, and I don't take it personally
The eye turned inwards of the inside world - way too many parties &
Way too many pals - Hey, I could be falling, yeah! But, I'm fine
And if I should roll over - I don't mind - I'll need a coca-cola
And they don't hear me. So they don't answer back
Listening for the cry to match the cry inside of me
Levis & Lee - they're never as blue as me
Just came to tell you, I got pissed on my way here
Letting go of all stern warnings, yeah - and it's weird
Trying to be different - not a chance - get back on my quadrant
And they don't hear me, so they don't answer back
They don't listen, so they don't answer back
You've got a big red tongue
'Coz you've been talking too long
I wouldn't get it back if I lended you an ear
Syllables and sounds is all I hear
So please read my hips and get a hold on your lips
Can't ask you to stop it ain't no use
It's a verbal mess when your tongue is loose
'Coz R mouth is racing while your mind is standing still
Yeah! All that wild talk It's making me ill...
Wild talk Told you that I had enough
But you just babble along the same lines
It's wild tlk Wild tlk Thought I'd never get enough
But you just babble along the same lines Wild tlk
Yeah! But I have to believe
You'll use your eyes to see
- That I'd might like you better if we slept together
'Coz why discuss all night? - When there's room for a fight
You just linger on You're talking me down
It's a waste of words when I'm around
Yeah! But your tape is rolling while your brain is on stand-by
All that wild tlk It must be making you high
Ahh! Too high!
Wild tlk Told you that I had enough
But you just babble along the same lines
Wild tlk - Wild talking misses
Wild tlk - Could I get through with some kisses?
Told you that I had enough, but you just babble along the same lines
It's wild tlk wild wild tlk...
Yeah! But your tape is rolling while your brain is on stand-by
All that wild tlk It must be making you high
Wild tlk Told you that I had enough
-Uhh yeah!
I have my hair high and low
Anywhere the wind blows
I'm doing M.P.H anywhere my soul goes
I'm hell riding and gasoline feed
That's all I need for the life that I lead
I'm a true believer Yes I am
You try and get me if I can
Yeah! I'm riding alone and I've drugged my senses
There's no one else to take the consequences
See when the day is gone free & the night creeps up on me
I take my B.M.W that's where I wanna be...
I'm a true believer Yes I am
And you try to get me if you can
Get me! Honk! Honk! Argh.!
True believer Yes I am.
True believer Yes I am.
True believer Yes I am...
Wrong words
Out of confusion
Yeah, I risk losing
The flesh you wear so well
Lost words
Eating away with no patience
Noone mentions
Our hearts like a small machine
Giving
And finding the place where your soul is
It's just that I know this
It's near the wound - it's near the pain
Listen
To the warm red water
Making me smaller
And soft as tears - soft as rain
I'm finally on my knees
The stupid pride recedes
Baby, I'm all ears.
Finally
I hear every word you're sayin'
Baby, I'm a soft dog at your feet
Wrong turns
Maybe I ordered
But, you followed
Me straight to hell
And wild words
Like I know what I'm doing
Like I know who I'm using
I can never tell.
Changes
The kiss of life that I'm giving
I've been afraid for no reason
Again this feels like home
I'm finally ...
Yeah, it's nothing but spoken words
But, it's the words that hurts
And some will never be said again .
Mistakes, we'll quickly forget it
The one false line, I really regret it
I got a lord of my own
And I got him at home
He's the one that I trust
Not to say I must
But he's a friendly guy
He used to live in the sky
And then I gave him the key
Now he's living with me
He's not the holy ghost
Or my father nor my son
If I should give him any name
It would be Captain Fun
'Cause there's a ship There's a ship
Sailing by Sailing by
There's a ship There's a ship
Sailing by Sailing by
There's a ship There's a ship
Sailing by Sailing by
There's a ship In the sky
Sailing by Sailing by
And I know if I try
He'll always stand by
If I should laugh and cheer
I know he's here
He's like E.T. if you're asking me
But he wears this plastic-bubble
That gave us trouble
'Coz he's from the sky
And without it he would die
People ask: "Whats that?"
I reply: "Thats Captain Space-hat"
There's a ship...
He laid face down
In the desert sand
Clutching a sixgun
In his hand
And me & Maria went to watch him die.
Suddenly the raised and said:
Help me now, or I shoot you dead!.
- I got an arrow in my back
And it aches as hell!
So we jumped on down in the yellow sand
Started helping this gunfighting man
He was sixfeet tall'n'four feet wide
And the wagon tipped from side to side
Driving into the red, red sun
Poor mule he could hardly run
I turned my head to Maria
And she turned her head to mine:
And we knew...
What he was going to do
He was going to shoo-oo-oy
His whole way through
And his name was on the pistol
- And he was son of a gun!
As we went driving into town
We saw these posters all around
There was a big reward upon his head
- Coz' the marshall wanted to see
him dead...
As we talked about this gunfighting man
We saw the steel in his hand:
Now folks I want to see you run!
To the rythm of my gun!
And we knew...
Well I was saved & I was glad
Thanks to my old stetson hat®
It went through the top
Only leaving a spot
It was fabricated by an indian bud
Who did not now that he was hot
Hanging on the posters everywhere...
So I took one step back
And tipped my hat
And looked him in his eyes
Aom shit he was telling me the
Dirtiest lies
I had no time to get away
I was trapped in the USA
C'mon Maria, let's get out of his war...
And we knew...
)(#$/#%&#?#%/!#
%#/(/%?#/#(/%#!
#%/)#/%!#(/!#%/
And we knew...
Do you really think that you're lost?
And that you'll never find the way
Learn the secrets of the woods
See the picture if you could
You grow a little every day
And now I'm grown and I look like you
Who'd ever know - how I turned out
But, I'm grown, and I look like you
I look like someone I never knew.
Speak while your lips are trembling
Talk to me when I'm listening
Finally someone said something good
We grow a little every day
And now I'm grown and I look like you
Like a voice that fills out the room
How do you know when you've grown up?
When you tie yourself down and give yourself up.
Speak while your lips are trembling
Talk to me when I'm listening
Finally someone said something good
Because we're leaving nothing
But moments of belonging
Finally someone said something good
Finally someone said something good
That's where you go, yeah. It's the home of the uprooted
It's here and there Hey, I got both feet planted solid in the air
Hard to know, yeah, if you're dead or you're just too slow
But I should have known, but I was confused
And that you're innocent until you're abused
I stare at the frame 'coz the mirror hangs too low
And here's a man who never says No!
Simpatico! Wherever you go. Simpatico! You're a one man show
Simpatico! Wherever you go. Simpatico!
It's time to explain, I head I haven't heard you right...
What's in your head - see I got no idea; 'coz my party's inside!
I stare at the frame 'coz the mirror hangs too low
And here's a man, who never says: no!
Simpatico! Wherever you go. Simpatico! You're a one man show
Simpatico! Wherever you go. Simpatico! You're a one man show
In a heavy-metal box
Where I was kept from I was little
It had locks on both ends
And a foodtray in the middle
I could smell my fans
- But I couldn't hear them shout.
So I did a lot of thinking...
- And this is was it's all about:
How much trouble can you make?
- And how much shit can you take?
Riskin' it all.
You kill yourself for peanuts
Riskin' it all...
With R'n'R in mind - but still.
Riskin' it all...
Don't need no average savage to kill my will!
The choice between light'n'shade
Are out beyond the bizarre
I mean why waste an outfit
Among strangers in a bar
- U see when I'm drunk
- I'm an original punk!
Riskin' it all...
Yeah! You kill yourself for peanuts
Riskin' it all...
Under the metal-law; but I will not!
Riskin' it all...
With R'n'R in mind; but still.
Riskin' it all...
Don't need no average savage 2 kill my will!
Riskin' it all...
Yeah! You kill yourself for peanuts
Riskin' it all...
Under the metal-law; but I will not!
Riskin' it all...
With R'n'R in mind; but still.
Riskin' it all...
Don't need no savage average to kill my will!
Like a roach in a sink, I was fighting the water
I fell on my back down the drain
I'd drown you'd think but no sooner than later
I was back on my feet again
Yeah, I crawled on the streets, looking up at the buildings
And often I hid my face
I paced among feet, your floor was my ceiling
But now I live like I own the place
On the road below me
I smile at the joys of travelling
On the road below me
I can handle almost everything
On the road below me
First I was sad; but now I'm free
On the road below me
The distance from here to a memory
Every day was a mountain, the fear of what hid
Inside of the timeworn phrases
I went from pale to gray, from being shut away
And now I can't resist new faces
Days become weeks, yeah, March becomes May
Looking back at my sleepless nights
But, hey, I'm built for trouble and I can take a lot
And I can safely say: I'm allright!
On the road below me ... Allright!
You know wonders are wonderful
-Even when they are being asked for.
Yeah, we just don't know
What life has in store for us.
Because the moral of this is immoral
And the moral escapes me now...
Like a troupe of clowns
Peekin' out of a show man's car
Through cabbage town...
You feel a cold wind blow
Through your open mind
The end is about to start
So you shut it hard...
As the weather girl predicts:
Conducting the clouds with her stick
The day will be clear'n'funny
- Before it rains...
Written in water
Yeah, it's bound to disappear
Written in water
Down the crater of your ear
As long as the flavor lasts
In c-h-e-w-i-n-g gum
As long as we float around
This golf ball sun...
The light to replace the day
Is ten shades of gray
A kiss removes the skin
Shows you where you've been
Under the ultra-violet ray
A rule every fool obeys
Hold up your name in fire
- Before it rains...
Written in water
Yeah, it's bound to disappear
Written in water
Written on a wave of fear.
Written in water
Yeah, it's bound to disappear
Down-the-velvet-crater-of-your-ee-aa-rrr
Yeah, written in water
It's bound to disappear
Written in water
Written on a wave of fear
Written in water
It's bound to disappear
Down the velvet crater of your ear
Your heart's been fired
Your blood is tired
Oh, your mind's a riot
And you need a bed.
You're emptyminded
Yeah, you're way behind it
Yeah, you've been blinded
You're a silhouette
And yeah. you've changed
And most of your friends
Yeah, believe you're strange
Cuz, you can't forget
You wonder how rotten
Your love live's gotten
Cuz, all of a sudden
Something's wrong .
What's the matter?
The blues got ya!
Yeah, what's the matter?
You're looking sadder
What happens after.?
The blues got you.
I thought you had her
Now, where's your laughter?
Yeah, what's the matter?
The blues got you.!
Maybe you wanted to dumb her
But, in the midst of your slumber
Uh, you lost the number
Of the place you love the most...
Now you look in all places
Among familiar faces
But, you run out of traces
Yeah, you run out of road.
So, you're standing still
With more than time to kill
You gotta wait untill.
A new way shows.
You see how it changed you
How it slowly estranged you
Solely arranged you
Right into a ghost...
Yeah, what's the matter.?
You're lookin' sadder
What happens after.?
The blues got you.
I thought you had her
Now, where's your laughter?
Yeah, what's the matter?
The blues got ya'.
Your heart is fired
Your blood is tired
And your mind's a riot
Hey, you need a bed
Hm, you're emptyminded
Hey, you're way behind it
Hey, you've been blinded
Yeah, you're a silhouette
Yeah, the thruth is
Over and over I know
Slower and slower things grow
It might not be pretty I know
But, the change is happening slow
You've found a pitifull tongue
Yeah, it translates what you've become
Worse than crazy - you're dumb.!
So, I say see ya
I wouldn't wanna be ya'
Everything is clearer
The truth about you.
You got noone to lie to
Noone there to cry to
I just want to say goodbye to.
- The truth about you.
The truth is.
Love arrives and it dies
Old darknesses, childhood lies.
We all got our own disguise
I just wish you'd be more of a surprise
Until I'm gone and all grown
I'll always want someone to own
But, with you - I just want to be alone
I don't mind the coming down
It's the way it's got to be
Well, me, my wife and our daugther
We found ourselves standing in New York
It was just a mile? of? land? and it was hard to understand
But we bought it from the indian on the run
Yeah, there we were me and daddy
We were travelling through the desert all alone
We were pinely? south? of west?
We were? just a test?
And we could get up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain top, once again
Come on up up on the mountain toooop
By the time that she had reached
The inspiration point
I saw her with an indian
Sharing a joint
Then before I could get up
Close enough to shout stop
The indian had already done his job
Come on up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain toooop
Yipiiiieee
Come on up up on the mountain top, once again
Come on up up on the mountain top, one more time
Come on up up on the mountain top
Yeah, we were me and daddy
We were travelling through the desert all alone
We were pinely? south? of west?
We were? just a test?
And we could get up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain top
Come on up up on the mountain toooop
Mountain toop
Come on up up on the mountain top, one more time
Come on up up on the mountain top, once again
Come on up up on the mountain top, for the last time
Yeah, c'mon!
Hey, there's nothing I hate in.
No, there's nothing I hate in.
- There's nothing I hate in the world like waitin'
And there're things in life I'd hate to be late in-
Yeah! I look at my watch'n'look at my wrist.
- And then I punch myself in the face with my fist
I blew out of bed to make it
- Tomorrow's today'n'it's already here.
It's like a disease; I can't shake it...
- Why don't we get this motor in gear?.
A smart boy can't tell ya'!
5 o'clock come and 5 o'clock's gone...
And the large and the little moves steadily on...
This has gone to far; we gotta rewind
- Or it's a 4 fisted brainstorm in the group-mind!
Yeah!
- See I'm so tired of waitin'
I build it up so big in my mind.
We've filled the places we've played in!
- How come we never make it on time?.
A smart boy can't tell ya'!
I'm always the 1st and they're always too late!.
A smart boy can't tell ya'!
- Did I pick the wrong day; did I pick the wrong date?
A smart boy can't tell ya!
Aren't u happy to see us; we're only 3 hours late!
Yeah!
A smart boy can't tell ya
A smart boy can't tell 'a
A smart boy can't tell ya
C'mon! Look at your clock; - I think we've waited enough
A smart boy can't tell 'ya!
I blew outa bed to make it
Tomorrow's today'n'it's already here!.
It's like a disease; I can't shake it...
- Why don't we get this motor in gear?.
A smart boy can't tell ya
A smart boy can't tell ya
A smart boy can't tell ya
A smart boy can't tell ya
I found a way of payin' off old debts
Always make more promises, than you can break
An argument that calls for more
Ends with a cold message on the freezer's door
Where there's a will; there's a won't.
From I to "we" - but still unowned.
Read it between the lies
When someone's asking someone something
Then you're proved, that is's a dumb thing
You're telling a drowning man, not to grab for straws
I'm a kid in a rowboat, who's lost his oars.
Going through your things; but nothing's new
A wild imagination with the tightest view...
Our voodoo dolls are full of holes
- You learned by going, where you had to go
Where there's will, there's a won't.
From I to "we" - but still unowned
Read it between the lies
When someone's asking someone something
And then you're proved that it's a dumb thing
You're telling a drowning man - not to grab for straws
I'm a kid in a rowboat who's lost his oars.
Yeah, yeah.

We played this part of this song for a year
Now all we need is a little singing...
And it's gotta be great 'coz it ruins my ear
When the guitar-wall is ringing.
Hey! We've been circling the airport
To give what we've got; and still some...
To small to be seen'n'to big to control

Hey Jonnie...
Put that gun down
You see we're not alone
You look so square
Standing there, with your greasy
Grey long hair.
I remember growing up together
Sharing all kinds of weather
We were to small kids
In a dusty town...
Your trail was trouble, mine was
homebound:
That's when you reach for
Your revolver...
That's when you reach for
Your gun...
Well, we heard the stories
On the wire
Death was your only desire
Stayin' away made you hard to
Blame.
But killing my love made me
Stop your game:
That's when I reach for
My revolver...
That's when I reach for
I heard a cold advice: pick on someone your own size
And that leaves you, and rules out me. 'Coz it's a kick in the head
Hey, everybody said, I didn't turn the other cheek
You think I'm weird. How weird are you?
Do you get tired when people stare? Hey, I know, I do...
It's the way life is right now - I get up at dawn; I fall down at night
It's the way life is right now - I hope that noone sees my frightened smile
I fly around like a bee and everything you do - I see
Yeah, I see you when you're weak - but with my head on my spine
I go to yours and you go to mine - the world's rocking under my feet
As though the present's never here
Hey, hey. It's always last week and it's always next year
It's the way life is right now - I get up at dawn; I fall down at night
It's the way life is right now - I hope that noone sees my frightened smile
It's hard to do - too hard to take - I'm pretty scared and very wide awake
I see the road, not the turns ahead - so I say...
It's the way life is right now - I get up at dawn; I fall down at night
It's the way life is right now - I hope that noone sees my frightened smile
It's the way life is right now and I'm seeing things in a different light
What if tomorrow wasn't there - never a next week
Never just another year - Yeah, like time just disappear
It's the way life is right now... I heard a cold advice:
I've been bounced around
But I'm still standing up
I've been so far down
That my ears they popped
And it was then I knew
By all the wrongs you do
- That if you can't be good - Be careful!
To achieve your happiness
On this terrestial ball..
Gotta have a clean conscience
But even better: None at all!!
But if you can't be good - Be careful yeah!
It's when a pat on the back becomes a slap in your face now..
Don't look back just helpyourselfish.
And when your friends begin to loose their way..
Don't look back just helpyourselfish..
Yeah, it's easy to be hard, if we got everything now
Don't look back just helpyourselfish...
Through the revolving door on someone elses push
Yeah it's easy to be hard Easy to be hard...
In between those who've got it made
- And those who've got to wait..
Yeah, I'll offer you a chair
But when you sit down - It isn't there!
Always quick to lend a hand
Sorry - Not today I can't...
But I'm always there when I need you - yeah!
It's when a pat on the back becomes a slap in your face now..
Don't look back just helpyourselfish.
And when your friends begin to loose their way..
Don't look back just helpyourselfish..
Yeah, it's easy to be hard, if we got everything now
Don't look back just helpyourselfish...
Through the revolving door on someone elses push
Yeah it's easy to be hard Easy to be hard...
Yeah, when a pat on the back becomes a slap in your face now
And when your friends begin to loose their way
Don't look back - just helpyourselfish
Through the revolving door on someone elses push
The winter of fortynine had passed
A winter of haunt n fear
Hunger had knocked at the city-gates
And threatened the pioneers
Then low in the east strange clouds appeared
And dark became the sun
And the courage to fight and win a war
Was all of a sudden gone
Black crickets
By 10s millions or more
Black crickets
By 10s millions or more
Until the fields that waved were few
Black crickets
Crickets by tens of millions came
Like fog on a british coast
They swept down from the mountainsides
Settled by the mormon post
Then the oldest old man got this bright idea
And he called for all the men
We'll build a giant nest & the crickets will fear
That the big bird is here again!
Black crickets...
They constructed the nest and two days went by
They all prayed by the end of their work
The unexpected guests would fly
They saw the nest the vision occured
And the dogs would wag their tails
Crickets all shouted: "Bird is the word"
The insects hit the trail
All heads were bowed as they thanked the lord
And they reaped while the devil raved
'Coz their harvest was saved to tons of praise
And the pioneers were saved
Black crickets...
Thousands of millions
Millions of billions
Billions of trillions
Trillions of zillions
D.A.Dillions of fantazillions
Small ideas on little minds
Many fish of many kinds
Easy cash'n'lots of leisure
Above primal law; the prize of pleasure
It pulls you down
It's perfectly clear
There's and end
To even the worst career...
Everybody knows it's up'n'down
But here it's forth'n'back.
And though money makes the world go around
It often makes it flat...
All talk of taste's beside the point
Shift your ideas; make up your mind
- Did you know fun, was this much work
If there's a cost, is it still worth it...
But, I declare each one a friend!
And take day by day untill the end.
Everybody knows it's up'n'down
But here it's forth'n'back.
And though money makes the world go around
It often makes it flat.
It often makes it flat-
But I declare each one a friend
And take day by day untill the end
Everybody knows it's up'n'down
But here it's forth'n'back.
Though money makes the world go around
It often makes it flat.
Everybody knows it's up'n'down
But here it's forth'n'back.
Though money makes the world go around
It often makes it flat.
It often makes it flat.
When the fever burns your brain
When your heart has got a name
And you long for generous days
You want a spring in your walk and a smile on your face..
Another day inside the pearl
You could have screamed; leaving this world
You laugh'n'joke without a care
And bear a depression you can see from the air..
Ride the tail of rhyme
Break the legs of time
- Snap it's spine..
As a statue wearing complicated clothes
A monument to power, standing, but on reconstrucdead toes
At my feet there's a plate I haven't read..
Apart from that - then I'll be reconstrucdead
A tambourine rings in my blood
The circus' rolling'n'the cage is locked..
So where's the light - a match that flares
- The pot at the end of the rainbow's where
Pick your nose as you pick your friends
Or spend a life in fear of the end
To tell a nodding shrink won't help
- So I say to myself: Hey, get a hold on yourself!
Ride the tail of rhyme
Break the legs of time
- Snap it's spine..
As a statue wearing complicated clothes
A monument to power, standing, but on reconstrucdead toes
At my feet there's a plate I haven't read..
Apart from that - then I'll be reconstrucdead, reconstrucdead..
My eyes are blind My mind is numb
But my ears begin to hear - to hear the growing hum
Like a statue, jealous of the rush hour
I'm reconstrucdead like a monument, a monument to power
As a statue wearing complicated clothes
Standing high up as a tower now, but still the cracks will - yeah
The cracks will show
A lifetime of frustration - the things that I can't get
Apart from that - then I'll be reconstrucdead
An empty plate for love & hate, so hungry like they never ate
And if you fight, noone fights back - 200 killings
Now I know that death is wearing black
A hand that holds me without strength - a hand that touches me without weight
The troops of love are flying out - very angry, very loud
- You can see it from the air - when you get hit,
You don't know where, and nothings seems fair
A hand that holds me without strength a hand that touches me without weight
And with no flag left to defend - a hand that pushes me
Hey, get out of that tincan you call a car
'Coz that old thing wont get you far
Don't take a bus and don't grab a cab
'Coz I got a thing that'll drive you mad
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my train
I'm a railroad man I got a coal-tan
And I works all day with the railroad gang
The number of trips makes the company pay
The number of bucks that I earn today
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my train
Come on baby, I'll blow your brain
All I want you to do is to ride my train
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my train
You know the girls go crazy and the boys get a pain
Just because I ride this big black train
I don't know if you like it, but I'm sure gonna ride it
And if the boys don't like it
Tell them to
Ride my train
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my train
Come on ride my traaaaiiin
Come on ride my traaaaaaaain
Ride my train
Sometimes in my parents house
In which I came to exist
The alert like look in their eyes
Still nothing was said
Yeah, the big and scary unknown
I didn't dare, even guess..
Some day calls out for me to be alone
To fly where the other days has flown
Outthere - outthere
To find a thought that wasn't thought upon
To go where the other days has gone
Outthere - outthere
Outthere - outthere
When everyone agrees with you
But, you know you're wrong..
When everyone embraces you
But, you know you don't belong
Still feel the shadow behind
Even when the sun is gone
Some day calls out for me ...
Yeah, I look in the mirror
Yeah, I look in the mirror
But, the mirror is bare
I look for my mouth
But, my mouth isn't there..!
I go to the window
I want to shout
But, below my nose
Nothing comes out
I'll never ever whistle
And there's noone to kiss..
What I'll eventually say..
Yeah, you like a man when his mind is strong
When his ego's so high he couldn't be wrong
And you like a man when he's right at the top
When his ego is growing and it don't seem to stop
See I'd like to share your point of view
As long as it's my view too
Can't win on a comprise I'd rather loose on my own
'Coz I feel kind of good when I'm all alone
And you play the games by the book and the rules
See I play'em backwards - let's see who lose
Yeah, you don't gor for the man, you go for his balls
So let's see who stands & see who falls...
Yeah, I'd like to share your point of view
As long as it's my view too
Can't win on a comprise I'd rather loose on my own
'Coz I feel kind of good when I'm all alone
And if I take a stand it will be my own
And take it yeah! Yeah!
Shhhhhh... Take a look in these eyes
Do they look sincere?. Do you read my lips
Do I make it clear? Bye bye so long,
I don't want you here...
Yeah, I tried to share your points of view
If not all then maybe just a few
I couldn't win on a compromise
I'd rather loose on my own
'Coz I feel kind of good when I'm all alone
And if I take a stand it'll be my own
Get out of my heart.
And my mind.
(Dewey Bunnel)
On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There were sand and hills and rain
The first thing I met was a fly with no buzz
And a sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can't remember your name
'Coz there aint no one to a give you no paine
After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told
Of a river that floated
Made me sad to think it was dead
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name...
After nine days I let the horse run free
'Coz the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There were sand and hills and things
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground
And the perfectest sky is above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love
My kitchen floor started cracking
And out jumped a man
Big, red and horny
I was shaking the devils hand
You've got a hell of a reputation
Thats the name of my game
Been digging all night
'Cause I heard your name
Got a mean main reason have no fear
But first we'll plays some poker
And have a warm beer
Let's play a little poker
And have a nize hot beer
I will smash your windows burn your mail
I tied ten knots on the devils tail
I can eat a horse even chew nail
I tied ten knots on the devils tail
D.A.D. wouldn't cross his trail
'Cause I tied ten knots on the devils tail
He's the toughest man and he can't fail
But I tied ten knots on the devils taaaaiiiiil
I sat down to the table
With the man that I once feared
He was drinking, humming, drinking
And scratching his beard
So we drank for about a fortnight
It seemed like some stupid test
Still I was sitting upright
Doing the things that I do best
But the poor devil looked mess
I will smash your windows...
Though he was red
He seemed kind of pale
Then I tied ten knots
On the devils tail
I dumped him in his hole
Heard the echoes of the scream
Hey boyscout from below
Now tell me who's mean!
I won't smash your windows...
I'm so rough I spent summer in jail
'Cause I tied ten knots on the devils tail
I'm so mean I could out-fart a gale
This is the lazy quiz
and you got all the time there is
we'll spend some time on greed'n'wealth
and then some on mental-health...
no need to sweat or bite your lips.
no grand prize, cars or trips
it's knowin when to quit...
if it wasn't for me and the likes of me
and what i choose to do.
if you could tell, i'd like to know
why you've become:
so candid unreserved'n'true
i'd rather you were i, than i were you
candid
as if you held the truth
sometimes honesty
will kill the fool
Now, my word no one relies on
never said a foolish thing.
then again... never said a wise one
it's never what you think - it's knowing when to quit.
if it wasn't for me and the likes of me
and what i choose to do.
what the hell i'd like to know
why you've become:
so candid unreserved'n'true
i'd rather you were i, than i were you
so candid
as if you held the truth
sometimes honesty will kill the fool
so candid unreserved'n'true
yeah, i'd rather you were i, than i were you, yeah
candid...
Walking through the city
Without eying anyone .
Don't want their vibes through my skin
The hair on my back rises
Silently it wins.
Now, I'm feeling everything
Yeah, it's funny how the pain goes away
But, it's comin' back another day
Yeah, it's slowly creepin' up
See, I haven't felt a thing within
Then wake up in this mood again
All the new ideas are gone
Is it true . I'm blue all over
From pointing at myself
Is it true now that it's over
I should have checked myself instead
... Checked myself instead
Yeah, with this journey
From my room out through the door
Down the stairs into the street
Forgotten is forgotten
Everything's returned
When I close my eyes
Strange things begin
It's hard to follow
It's hard to win
With a stretch of purple
Like I'm in a daze
A weakened signal
On it's way.
I see familiar clouds go by
I'm underneath a ceiling sky
Yeah, I'm falling in love with all humankind
If you love me now I won't change my mind
Yeah, I'm falling in love with all humankind
There's noone to blame - the fault is mine
(The fault is mine.)
Yeah, a shock of horror
When the way is clear
My best days
Is when I shake with fear
When my risks are those
I hardly dare to take
I need courage
Jackie O went ridin'
To the Wounded Knee...
Jackie O was killed
In the battle in 73...
- I was his last friend
And I watched him die...
As the angel grabbed him
- I said: Fly Jackie fly!
Jackie went from pain and misery
To join the warriors
Down at Wounded Knee
I watched the dying Jackie
Untill the morning broke
The distant thunder faded
Of the blue-shirts second stroke...
I knew the fight was over
And we had lost again
Both here and in South Dakota
Where I had lost a friend!.
Jackie went from pain and misery
To Join the warriors
In my travelling heart, there's an urge to see
Foreign lands and alien birds, new stories that noone heard
To stick a pin in the globe and to believe and hope
There's a whole new world to unravel
As far as a boyscout can travel.
Company of adventurers On the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness Around the world & back
Cardcarrying members Lords of the atlas
To see God standing on a local hill
And to know there's forests unthrod still
Don't look back when you climb the stairs
I'm travelling on mental fares
Going through the eternal cloudland
To the ends of the world.
And after 2000 steps of climbing...
- I know it was the whole trip worth!
Company of adventurers On the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness Around the world and back

- We're the lords Yeah, we're the lords of the atlas
Sitting crosslegged on a persian rug
Addicted to a 1000 drugs
Our flags nailed onto a mast
Captain says: Forward fast.!

Their fathers groin that breeds'em, their mothers breast that feeds'em

i had a dream you were still alive
playing Mozart records in the basement
and you whistled like you always did
when it hit your favorite part
i had a dream you were still alive
like i could feel your stubble on my face
when you kissed me goodnight
and we'd do our special signal together
i had a dream you were still alive x2
