Diabolical - dominating the gentle sex
Systematically - destroying to forget
Twisted evil - nasty and rotten to the core
Avenger of those who are unable to adore
Disability - to share love and forgive
No facility - cause my memory like a sieve
Darker than black -my ego rules my sphere
Despair and fear - is my goddamned riotgear
Welcome!
Welcome to the mans land
Where your partners your archenemy
Welcome to the mans land
Where your tortured soul will find a decree
Bear all the soul torment the twisted fatal banshee
Only in no mans land the bitch will pay her final fee
Diabolical - my insane mind needs soulfood
Super critical - with yourself cause you've been screwed
A desperate creature which is trying to forget
In no mans land - there is no need to fuckin' fret
An avenger of those who are unable to adore
A wounded fighter that is still able to score
A unique individual should never close the door
No need to prostitute, to sell your lifestyle like a whore
An avenger of those who are unable to adore
There's no need to prostitute

Headin' in or headin' out
Standing on the shore
Pause a moment to reflect
Which trip costs you more
Between the ever restless crowds
And the silence of your room
Spend an hour in no man's land
You'll be leaving soon
Victims come and victims go
There's always lots to spare
One victim lives the tragedy
One victim stops to stare
And still another walks on by
Pretending not to see
They're all out there in no man's land
'Cause it's the safest place to be
But sanctuary never comes
Without some kind of risk
Illusions without freedom
Never quite add up to bliss
The haunting and the haunted
Play a game no one can win
The spirits come at midnight
And by dawn they're gone again
And so it seems our destiny
To search and never rest
To ride that ever changing wave
That never seems to crest
To shiver in the darkest night
Afraid to make a stand
And then go back and do our time

We're dropplng bombs down on the kids
They can't eat bombs
And we know this
But we're doing what we're told
We're flying around in strategic bombers
With an afterburner straight to hell
Where napalms burning love that smell
My little girl she sits at horne
With my last letter all alone
She stops to read closes her eyes and then she cries
My daddy told me he was proud
My mummy's praying but not too loud
I wonder if the lord will get the massage clear
Oh mummy be shure i'll come back
In a wodden box all painted black
A bullet between the eyes is all what's left for you
Seven times I've asked my head
But all I've got is nomansland...nomansland...
And if those generals say: don't worry
Same old assholes same old story
And it's not true...

You say that you'd rather be really poor
Than scratching, saving, scrimping all the pennies
Looking in the windows at what you can't afford
Always hungry, never starving
In no man's land the days are long
You say that you'd rather be really ill
Than just having headaches, never have no energy
All the little allergies and all the little pains
Never getting better, never getting worse
In no man's land the days are long
You say that you'd rather have no love at all
Than pathetic little words, half-hearted kisses
Never feeling anything, anything at all
Never no fire, never no passion
In no man's land the days are long
Do you believe you can come out, fighting from you shell-hole
Or do you run for cover every time you hear a shot fired in anger?

Out there covered in mud and rain
Nightsky burning brighter as a day
Lost in the fields between frontlines
Remarkable silence in fatal times
A thousand voices yelling for me
And braver bodies hanging from the crippled trees
Of the bloodforest in that we gotta stay
They´re coming to kill us before we decay - anyway
Out there in No Man´s Land
Buried alive in the blood red sand
My gun is glowing and melting my hands
But there´s no space for pain
Out there in No Man´s Land
War´s put a spell on me to ratify insanity
A blood hostel warden baring my teeth
There´s just one fact that makes me fear
It seems to me that I belong here
I wrote on a bullet with the bajo my name
Hope that no one else will do the same
As a coward I´m ashamed of that all
The world won´t care if I should fall
Out there in No Man´s Land
The reasons are too small to understand
The fire is endless and swallowing up my friends
But there´s no time for brotherhood
Out there in No Man´s Land
„Permission to die granted“ they shout
Soldiers addicted to kill their doubts
The agony of choice - shoot or being shot
Enjoying the grace of getting their brains blown out
Mercy - You grovel into the mist
Out there in No Man´s Land

Gasline fumes of motorcyclemen
Roar of engines
High speed on the road... Turboviolence!
Dive with no control
Motorcharged warriors and wild animals
Submited to the holocaust
Screaming for vengeance on the streets
Hunting for enemies!
(Chorus)
Walking on the razors edge to the end of the earth
Living on this sleazy place... The Wasteland!
No-mans land the beginning of the end
Outlaw beahviours
We are criminals and nuclear saviours
Instincts to suvive

Ladies we are gathered here
To analyze this strange frontier I come
No man?s land
It's like a spaceship came in the middle of the night
And carried away all the single guys and left us
In no man?s land
If you're a long tall cool drink of water
An oasis in this dry desert sand
Well, you won't be long too long
'Cause the good ones have all gone
So come on out to no man?s land
Our lingerie is collecting dust
My underwire is about to rust
We're stuck in no man?s land
It's gotten so bad that Billy Jean
Seriously considering switching teams
It's rough in no man?s land
If you're a long tall cool drink of water
An oasis in this dry desert sand
Well, you won't be long too long
'Cause the good ones have all gone
You?re welcome here in no man?s land
Oh, come on
We're manicured, we're dressed to thrill
So what's with all this time to kill
We've searched online a thousand times and still
We're all heading home to watch TV
Stopping on the way to buy batteries
Admit it, we're in no man?s land
If you're a long tall cool drink of water
An oasis in this dry desert sand
Well, you won't be long too long
'Cause the good ones have all gone
Y?all come on out to no man?s land
Yeah, we're desperate here in no man?s land

You would hold your head up high
you even try
you would hold another hand:
oh understand!
They even see me under call
we under all,
we awful, awful, crawl
to hear my hour
come see me cry...
Just searching you even try
I can make you smile
if it's there will you go there too?
When I live I die!
They even see me under call
we under all, we awful, awful, crawl
because of you, to see me be.
(last verse mostly garbled....but you can pick out Tell me, Tell
me, Tell me Yippee and also: Heavily Spaced. According to
legend, this verse was originally meant to be understood, but
when they f**ked it up in the studio, Syd liked it and kept it
that way...) - Psycho

Surfing channels
Trying to fool my feelings
It's like they're still resisting
Goes little demons
Trying to leave in
But they keep on playing over again
This 4 walls share my conversations
Wish I could tell someone
But my voice keeps breaking
So ashamed you're still living reveree in my brain... in my brain
[Chorus:]
I'm saying
I can't move on... stumbling 'round
Hanging on... but going down...
No man's... no man's land
People say
Keep your head up
Watch the sun rising
Everybody has big advice for me
But all I wanna know is
What the hell went wrong... oh what went wrong
[Chorus]
But i will rise to the sun again
I have no doubt
But i just don't know when
Sometimes I can change anything
But then again...

Hey come and make it easy
Hey come and make it back
It’s no use to be free
If lies are all the truth they see
They’ll screw up what you do
When you’re through
Hey come and make it easy
Hey come and make it back
If you need a friend
And you need a way to lose the end
You know a place for you
When you’re through
Hey come and make it easy
Hey come and make it back
It’s no use to be free
If lies are all the truth they see
They’ll screw up what you do

Tanya Tucker
No Man's Land
Many years ago in Brushcreak Georgia
Molly Marlo was a virgin girl
She lived a mile from a fool named Barney Dawson
Hell bent on getting inside Molly's world
He caught her after church one Sunday morning
And took her body with his rough hard hands
And walked off laughing as she lay there crying
Since then she's been known as No Man's Land
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
Love could never grow in No Man's Land
The men all tried but she denied them
And they sighed and wrung their hands
But they couldn't go walking
In No Man's Land
Molly grew into a luscious beauty
Each man's head would turn as she walked by
And as their hot eyes watched her body moving
They'd swallow hard and shake their heads and sigh
Molly went to school and studdied nursing
Now you might laugh but it's an honest fact
The first year that she nursed at Millards Clinic
Six men pretended they had heart attacks
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
Love could never grow in No Man's Land
The men all tried but she denied them
And they sighed and wrung their hands
But they couldn't go walking
In No Man's Land
Years later Barney Dawson lay in prison
In feaverish pain that suffering shell of a man
He was glad to see the nurse from Millards Clinic
'Till he saw the burning eyes of No Man's Land
Molly Marlo was No Man's Land
Love could never grow in No Man's Land
Barney cried but she denied him
And he prayed and wrung their hands
Now his soul's walking

1. Well, how'd you do, Private William McBride?
Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside?
I'll rest here awhile in the warm summer sun,
I've been walking all day, Lord, and I'm nearly done.
And I see by your gravestone you were only 19
When you joined the glorious fallen in 1916--
Well, I hope you died quick and I hope you died clean,
Or, Willie McBride, was it slow and obscene?
Chorus:
Did they beat the drum slowly,
Did they sound the fife lowly,
Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down?
Did the bugles sing "The Last Post" in chorus?
Did the pipes play "The Flowers of the Forest?"
2. Did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind?

You’ve got something that’s been on your mind
You’re lookin’ for peace and you’re hopin’ to find it
There is only one who can give it to you.
What we’re doin’ and what we say
We’re gonna have to stop and think one day
And you might not know where the next step comes
But there’s one place that you gotta get away from
chorus:
No man’s, you gotta get out of no man’s land
You gotta run across
As fast as you can
You can’t walk and you can’t stand
‘Cause it really isn’t in God’s plan
And life ain’t worth livin’
If you’re livin’ it in no man’s land
When I think back over my life
So much was wrong that nothin’ seemed right
And there were times I didn’t know where I was goin’
I can remember very clearly then
Just about the time was givin’ in
I heard a voice and these words were said,
‘‘You can’t stop here, no, you gotta move ahead.”
‘Cause you’re in—
(chorus)
Well, I don’t know
What you’ve been told
But there’s one thing that’s certain
The Lord will take you
Right on through
‘Til in your heart… you’re free
What you’re doin’ and what you say
You’re gonna have to stop and think one day
And you might not know where the next step comes
But there’s one place that you gotta get away from
(chorus)
Livin’ it in no man’s land
Life ain’t really livin’, no

I could never understand that silly show
Life is what they call it and some people know
Exactly where they're going to and where it's at
What they want and even what they're gonna get
When I try to match the ones that pull the strings
All I so is risk my neck and sell my skin
I'm feeling like an actor every word I say
Prompted by a madman in a rotten play
No man's land, taking shelter from the eager crowd
No man's land, where my mind needs to be leveled out
Here I see the madman's silhouette
Standing out against the dream he's had
No man's land
Like oxygen I need my no man's land
Prophets of the distant eye, your shallow din
Slowly turns the world into a lifesize ring
Where acrobats and jugglers can perform their tricks
Audience longing for more thrilling kicks
No man's land, between the borders of our common past
No man's land, beyond the longitudes of east and west
Like an outcast, rogue or refugee
Victimized by my own fantasy
No man's land

Well, i live in a no mans land. I dont know where im going, trying to gain a fan.
I hold on to whatever i can, cuz the deeper i go, the quicker the sand.
Well, i live in a no mans land. I dont know where im going, trying to gain a fan.
I hold on to whatever i can, cuz the deeper i go, the quicker the sand.
Yeah, and everything
It all comes crashing down
And every deed
It all comes back around
And every creek
And every single cloud
Becomes the sea
And it all comes crashing down
And in the midst of everything i drown
As the sky above comes crashing down
(down down down)
And in the midst of everything i drown (drown drown)
As the sky above comes crashing down
Sweet dreams, i hold on to
Memories, i hold on to
I dont think they really, really understand
All the pain i feel, just to make them dance
And here i go, in the studio
Can you feel my heart, now can you feel my soul
Thats the way that i, think with every line
and imma be that deep till the day i die
So if you feel me now, sing it one time
The doc said i need to take theese every day
But i rather ride around in a chevrolet
I dont wanna pray i dont wanna meditate
I broke up with my girlfriend yesterday
If i wanted to i could do anything
I could rap a verse but i'd rather sing
Everything goes around like a boomerang
(boomerang-rang-rang-boomerang-rang-rang -rang)
Yeah, and everything
It all comes crashing down
And every deed
It all comes back around
And every creek
And every single cloud
Becomes the sea
And it all comes crashing down
And in the midst of everything i drown
As the sky above comes crashing down
(down down down down down)
And in the midst of everything i drown (drown drown)
As the sky above comes crashing down
I try to hold on, on to everything
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
I try to hold on, on to everything
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
I try to hold on, on to everything
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
I try to hold on, on to everything
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
I try to hold on, on to everything
(sweet dreams, i hold on to-o-o-o)
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
(Memories, i hold on to-o-o-o)
I try to hold on, on to everything
(sweet dreams, i hold on to-o-o-o)
Sweet memories, but that was yesterday
(Memories, i hold on to-o-o-o)

Coin tossed in a well and she made a wish
Just gave her dreams a goodbye kiss
And she waits and she hurts
But never had her. go!
Cash cash money money...
Hear the voice
Crash test dummy dummy
Lack in hide and wisdom mystic
Get your penny back
Get a spine on you back
This will mean you kick and feed
Come here come have a cry
The wish we made and away we go
and the broken days is a lonely road
and the way we fall down, well i'm on my knees
Then i hear you callin' down , i hear you callin' me

I've seen those big machines come rolling through the quiet pines
Blue suits and bankers with their Volvos and their valentines
Give us this day our daily discount outlet merchandise
Raise up a multiplex and we will make a sacrifice
Now we're gonna get the big business
Now we're gonna get the real thing
Everybody's all excited about it
Who remembers when it all began
Out here in no man's land
Before they passed the master plan
Out here in no man's land
Low supply and high demand
Here in no man's land
There ain't much work out here in our consumer power base
No major industry, just miles and miles of parking space
This morning's paper says our neighbor's in a cocaine bust
Lots more to read about Lolita and suburban lust
Now we're gonna get the whole story
Now we're gonna be in prime time
Everybody's all excited about it
Who remembers when it all began
Out here in no man's land
We've just begun to understand
Out here in no man's land
Low supply and high demand
Here in no man's land
I see these children with their boredom and their vacant stares
God help us all if we're to blame for their unanswered prayers
They roll the sidewalks up at night, this place goes underground
Thanks to the condo kings there's cable now in Zombietown
Now we're gonna get the closed circuit
Now we're gonna get the Top 40
Now we're gonna get the sports franchise
Now we're gonna get the major attractions
Who remembers when it all began
Out here in no man's land
Before the whole world was in our hands
Out here in no man's land
Before the banners and the marching bands
Out here in no man's land
Low supply and high demand
Here in no man's land

Every thought is in my vein and they all seem to be the same
Every breath I take a night makes me me lose some more delight
Every story has an end and there's no way our lives extend
Every sorrow starts to grow when I let my feelings flow
Is it truth, is it pain or fear?
It comes all down and seems so near
I wonder if you will understand
I welcome you to - welcome to no-man's land
All seems wastes up for sure and there are wounds that should be cured
Fate and fiction I neglect, senseless words that I detect...
Can somebody tell me if some silence is near?
Or if it's only a vision and I don't see clear...
What do you expect from me, what do you want me to be?
Implications of change, filtering your thoughts to be free
Did you ever think of what's behind that door?
Did you ever find the things you're looking for?
You never tried and you never expand

What happened to the old records
when it sounded like this
what happened to the old records
when it was strictly classics
Repeat
What's going on is what he once said
guess nobody heard him
and it's no better as days go by
I'm gettin' fed up
pain and misery is taking over me
hungry babies unemployment lines people
steady dying
I'm getttin' my bags and I'm goning
to the place that is no where
Chorus
I'm going going packin' my bags
and going to no man's land
I'm going going packin' my bags
I'm going to no man's land
Catching cases and during time I'm getting
careless
my baby's mama making me loose my mind
gotta keep my head up
the divorce rates running high ain't no
family ties
where's our future, chruches burning down,
disease is spreading around
I'm gettin' my bags and I'm going to a place
where no man's land
Chorus
Sign of the times staring you in your face
I must go on try to find a better place
Repeat Chorus five times
Ad-Lib
Gotta get away find here go far from here
fly away from here
Gotta get away find here go far from here

I got a job in Atlanta in a mall playing Santa
Not because of any talent but because I was the
only one the suit would fit
Everybody shopping, little sticky kids were hopping
on my lap with their fingers in my beard
I guess they thought that I was really it
She sat down on my lap and said to me
"I'm twenty three and I need someone
You look like someone who could play with me
Stay with me, all day with me"
Cause I'm in no man's land
Can't seem to find a real man
You know I'm lookin' for a steel man
She said I'm in no man's land
I'm gonna show you a real good time
I'd gladly pay you double overtime
She was beggin' to be mine, but my job was on the line
Should I say or should I go? I just didn't know ...Hmmmm
I left fifty kids standin' in line, they were whining, they were crying
and their mothers they were screaming in hysterics and I swear
I never heard such profanity
I dropped my suit on the floor
they were trying to block the door
They were calling her a whore
They were driven to nativital insanity
We drove away in her Mercedes Benz, dirty blond split ends in the breeze
She said "I want to put you under my tree
You're just a little gift from me to me"
Cause I'm in no man's land
Can't seem to find a real man
You know I'm lookin' for a steel man
She said I'm in no man's land
You know I'm ready for a real good time
I'd gladly pay you double overtime
She had money all her life
She wasn't lookin' to become my wife
She said, "I hope you understand
I just want a nightful of man, Sonny"
She didn't notice I was thin with a delicate chin
Nor the softness of my skin, nor the scent of my other personalities
She didn't see through my disguise - didn't see it in my eyes
She was in for a surprise when she discovered my emotional plurality
She said "Come and lay down on the floor with me
It's warmer here by the fire"
She didn't know that there was more of me
She'd have to learn to love all four of me
Cause I'm in no man's land
I'm lookin' for the real me, If only I could feel me
You know I'm in no man's land
Sometimes I gotta play me, It's really hard to stay me
Hey, I'm in no mans land
I'm looking for the real me, If only I could feel me
You know I'm in no man's land
Sometimes I gotta play me, It's really hard to stay me
Oh, I'm in no man's land

Straight out of Abilene
He's bustin' at the seams
Immune to whisky
Man it's down to a shot of
gasoline
This ain't no Romeo
This here's a one man show
Livin' on a dare
Thinkin' he'll become a legend
One more fever diggin' for
fools gold
Fast lane freeway to the
glory hole
'Cos he's
Livin' it up
In No Man's Land
Tonight's the night
Gonna get to heaven
Livin' it up
In No Man's Land
Too fast to live
Too young to die
He named his limousine
The Mississippi Queen
Better never look inside
'Cos things get a little
bit messy
This party never ends
Plenty of so-called friends
Payin' homage to heroes
They will never see again
Where will you wind up
I'll never know
Fast land freeway to the
glory hole
'Cos he's
Livin' it up
In No Man's Land
Tonight's the night
Gonna get to heaven
Livin' it up
In No Man's Land
Too fast to live
Too young to die
One more fever diggin' for
fools gold
Fast lane freeway to the
glory hole
The headline read
He finally made it
No return
Baby see him fly
Livin' it up
In No Man's Land
Tonight's the night
Gonna get to heaven
Livin' it up
In No Man's Land
Too fast to live

Up in the highest of heights, O'Hara blinks and fights
This land is yours, this land is mine
I see the captain in red and Cairo at his head
This land is yours, this land is mine
The lightning over the park, the waters, brash and dark
We take a swim, we take a swim
I never meant to escape the carpet and the trade
This land is yours, this land is mine
And when I make up my mind, I change it all the time
I take it back, I take it back
The numbers over the dam, Jo Davies and the band
I count them out, I count them out
There was a car in the bay, by the boat that swept and swayed
Whoever you are in the light, in the water that we made
I'm counting it out, I'm counting it out, I'm working it out
Inside, I'm counting it out from the floor
The ferry hatches Moline, Panola Beauty Queen
She takes a bow, she takes a bow
In Charles, we climb the hill and Danville window sill
I take it back, I take it back
My sister she counts the bars, the Macon county cars
She takes a bow, she takes a bow
The Mississippi amends, the Carver and the bends
This land is yours, this land is mine
My brother punches my ear, the injured ivory deer
I call my dad, I call my dad
We skip inside of the store, the Mason winter door
This land is yours, this land is mine
There was a car in the bay, by the boat that swept and swayed
Whoever you are in the light, in the water that we made
I'm holding your hand by the shore with our collars pulled up tight
I'm counting it out, I'm counting it out, I'm working it out inside
I'm counting it out, I'm counting it out, I'm working it out inside
I'm counting it out
This land is not your land, for the right hand
Takes what it can, ransacks with the mad man
For this land is not yours or mine to have

In a town without a name
there is no shame
no blame to claim
one fine day the pilgrims came
and made new rules for an old game
And I'm waiting for the garbage man To take you away
And I'm searching for my playground
So I can go and play
So they built a big smoke stack
Built a railroad track
They made the dirt roads black
And they did it behind your back
And now you pay their tax
hoping something cracks
And I'm waiting for the garbage man
To take you away
And I'm searching for my playground
So I can go and play
From out of the dust came corrosion and rust
That made you look so cheap
There's nothing to have here
And nothing to hold here
And nothing that you can keep
Now understand this is no man's land
And its all that's left that's free
Where the kings of nothing rule my friend
And you can't make me leave
There's a billboard in the sky
Reflecting water in your eyes
This big city, this ghost town
Will come crawling to the ground
And I'm waiting for the hurricane To blow you away
And I'm searching for my twister
to twist you into shape
Now my speach is said and done
The circus came, I had my fun
And the wasteland has been won
And the building has begun
And I'm waiting for the earthquake To shake you down
And I see my mother nature Trying to drag you around
From out of the dust came
Corrosion and rust
That made you look so cheap
There's nothing to have here
And nothing to hold here
And nothing that you can keep
Now understand this is no man's land
And its all that's left that's free
Where the kings of nothing rule my friend

he was my brother born the day I left
he took the mother lode and I took the rest
he was a fighter, he was always in control
he kept a candle burning way down in his soul
shots fired in anger and a widow cries alone
just one more mother's son who won't be coming home
they speak in whispers there are riders to the east
the blind man says mister bring a bottle and a priest
that's the way it always goes
that's the way it's always been
who you are or what you know
you're like a feather in the wind
let the river wash you away
reach the river if you can
past the blue and past the grey
all the way, all the way
all the way to no man's land
there was no shelter there was nowhere left to run
they came like eagles screaming down out of the sun
I heard the whistle sound the engine pulled away
I saw my brother down and I left him where he lay
some fight for honor there are those that fight for gold
some die believing all the fairy tales they're told
there are no heroes and there is no marching bang
there are no miracles down here in no man's land
that's the way it always goes
that's the way it's always been
who you are or what you know
you're like a feather in the wind
let the river wash you away
reach the river if you can
past the blue and past the grey
all the way, all the way
all the way to no man's land
(let the river wash away)
(let the river wash away)
that's the way it always goes
that's the way it's always been
who you are or what you know
you're like a feather in the wind
let the river wash you away
reach the river if you can
past the blue and past the grey
all the way, all the way
all the way to no man's land
(let the river wash away) let the river wash away
(let the river wash away) let the river wash away
(let the river wash away) let the river wash away
let the river wash away

As you see, no regrets
All is over but it's not the end
I don't know I think I even don't care
But when I wake up at night I still see you my friend
If you ever need anything
Don't hesitate to ask anything
Walking alone in no man's land
Waiting for a blessing or a helping hand to drag me away
Stay, be ready to pay for your sins
Smooth as velvet it forces me back in
Can you feel the last heart beat
All choices have been made and there's no return
I don't know I think I even don't care
But when I wake up at night I feel like I'm dying
If you ever need anything
Don't hesitate to ask anything
Walking alone in no man's land
Waiting for a blessing or a helping hand to drag me away
Stay, be ready to pay for your sins
Smooth as velvet it forces me back in
If you ever need anything
Don't hesitate to ask anything
If you ever need anything
Walking alone in no man's land
Requesting for a helping hand
Walking alone in no man's land
Waiting for a blessing or a helping hand to drag me away
Stay be ready to pay for your sins
Smooth as velvet it forces me and...
Stay I'm ready to pay for my sins

Say good morning, same six eyes,
today you'll get your money's worth.
To revolve or revolutionise.
Or put it in the paperwork.
You've been sold a winning hand.
Take a bow and raise your glass to 'No Man's Land'.
And it all goes right to plan.
Play another round, for another chance.
Simple, as simple mistakes.
You hang your trouble in the sky.
And one boy scout gone bad, a piece of cake.
And let the think tank decide.
You bury your head in the sand,
as you rise to raise your glass to 'No Man's Land'.
And it all goes right to plan.
You play another round, for another chance,
(call you back home, call you from now, calling from home?).
You bury your head in the sand,
and take a bow and raise your glass to 'No Man's Land'.
And it all went right to plan.
And you play another round if you get, another chance.
No Man's Land.

Sammy's sleep was short that night
He heard a sound turned on the light
He was all alone in there
All the noises had him scared
He made his way down the stairs
Then the sounds were everywhere
He grabbed his daddy's gun
Felt safe from everyone
It's dangerous
In no man's land
So dangerous
His hands were shakin' but he wouldn't dare
Look through the curtains cause he was so scared
People running from the shop
A fire burning down the block
He saw their faces, but they looked so mad
Whatever happened he knew it was bad
He was so alone in there
The sky was bright, smoke filled the air
No one gives a damn
Living in no man's land
No one understands
Living in a no man's land
Said they'd be home, but they weren't there
Where did they go, don't they care
To be a child alone that night
Can you imagine what that's like
One little boy forced to hide
Became a man from what he saw that night
They reached into Sammy's eyes

As you see, no regrets
All is over but it´s not the end
I don´t know I think I even don´t care
But when I wake up at night I still see you my friend
If you ever need anything
Don´t hesitate to ask anything
Walking alone in no man´s land
Waiting for a blessing or a helping hand to drag me away
Stay, be ready to pay for your sins
Smooth as velvet it forces me back in
Can you feel the last heart beat
All choices have been made and there´s no return
I don´t know I think I even don´t care
But when I wake up at night I feel like I´m dying
If you ever need anything
Don´t hesitate to ask anything
Walking alone in no man´s land
Waiting for a blessing or a helping hand to drag me away
Stay, be ready to pay for your sins
Smooth as velvet it forces me back in
If you ever need anything
Don´t hesitate to ask anything
If you ever need anything
Walking alone in no man´s land
Requesting for a helping hand
Walking alone in no man´s land
Waiting for a blessing or a helping hand to drag me away
Stay be ready to pay for your sins
Smooth as velvet it forces me and...
Stay I´m ready to pay for my sins

That house on the hill is long gone
Now she's living in a trailer with an Astroturf lawn
Got three little kids and no one to help
Trying to be momma and daddy all by herself
It's hard to hold down the fort when you're holdin' down a job
She'd rob Peter to pay Paul but he's already been robbed
She gets the food on the table and the clothes off the lines
She'd break down and cry but she doesn't have time
She got to be strong, life goes on
Though it's nothin' like she had planned
She's gonna be okay gonna find a way
Living in no man's land
Every now and then late at night
She thinks of how it would feel to hold someone tight
And there's a guy down at work he keeps callin' her up
But she ain't ready for none of that stuff
She's still sifting through the ashes of a love that's been and gone
Looking for a clue, trying to find out what went wrong
It ain't always easy, but she knows she's gotta try
Every time she looks into her babies' eyes
She got to be strong, life goes on
Though it's nothin' like she had planned
She's gonna be okay gonna find a way
Living in no man's land
She got to be strong, life goes on
Though it's nothin' like she had planned
She's gonna be okay gonna find a way
Living in no man's land

He was my brother
he was born the day I left
he took the mother lode
and I took all the rest
he was a fighter
he was always in control
he kept a candle burning
way down in his soul
Shots fired in anger
and a widow cries alone
just one more mother's son
who wo'nt be coming home
they speak in whispers
there are riders to the east
the blind man says
"Mister bring a bottle and a priest"
That's the way it always goes
that's the way it's always been
who you are or what you know
you're like a feather on the wind
let the river wash you 'way
reach the river if you can
past the blue and past the grey
all the way to no man's land
There was no shelter
there was nowhere left to run
they came like eagles screaming
down out of the sun
I heard the whistle sound
the engine pulled away
I saw my brother down
I left him where he lay
Some fight for honor
there are those that fight for gold
some die believing
all the fairy tales they're told
there are no heroes
and there is no marching band
there are no miracles down here
in no man's land
That's the way it always goes
that's the way it's always been
who you are or what you know
you're like a feather on the wind
let the river wash you 'way
reach the river if you can
past the blue and past the grey

walking on the border
breathing the air of no man's land
everything is allowed
no need to understand
the meaning of life
i wonder
if one can buy the land
to build one's home in a place
where no one is king
and no one cares about your race
there are no jobs here
no employees here
no alarm clocks here
no piffle here
you can be yourself
don't bite your tongue
yell your joy
or sing this song
no need to play your role
and lie to your ma'
that you're actually pleased
with what you are
the edge of your world is going to crash and disappear
i long for you to come and lose your taste of fear

The salient is an arc of flame
Machine guns fire in hysteria
Thousands of soldiers die every day
The wounded scream in agony
Witness the last attack of the cavalry
Gunned down and shot to pieces
The artillery created a landscape equal to the moon
Through a storm of steel
Through no man's land
Bullets blow you to kingdom come
No man's land
Only the rats grew fat on attrition
Glutted with the flesh of dead soldiers
Loathsome, bloated creatures
Half blind and big as cats
The morale of the army
Was sinking in the swamps of the salient
Vicious in victory
We're out for war, war to the death
Through a storm of steel
Through no man's land
Bullets blow you to kingdom come
No man's land
Stuck on a bayonet, or shot at dawn
Life expectancy, there is none
Men slipped and slithered
Through bloody soil on the battleground
Divisions were going across like terriers intent on
flushing rats from a hole
Through a storm of steel
Through no man's land
Bullets blow you to kingdom come

Live in fear of our world
Incautious thoughts of destruction
Go to sleep it will disappear
As a dream will be clear
You wish for earth the rebirth
The air won't encumber you any longer
As you reach for someone's hand
As we see no mans land
Your dream will end
And then you will take a stand
To this and make the world exist
The slave inside
Is the evil way of mind
For you there is nothing left to do
This is what life has come to be
See the end of technology
The day will come as you see
For us all that is left
See the light of unknown places
As we all have different faces
Reality makes you grow colder
As it brings you to your shoulders
You can not have
The no mans land
It is just a dream
For someone's hand
Do not look back
On the past
The fight for light
It will last
Look around on the ground
A lifeless form to be born
A face for earth to be lent

Well how do you do Private William McBride
Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside?
I'll rest for awhile in the warm summer sun
I've been walking all day and I'm nearly done
And I see by your gravestone you were only 19
When you joined the glorious fallen in 1916
And I hope you died quick and I hope you died clean
Or William McBride was it slow and obscene?
Chorus:
Did they beat the drum slowly, did they sound the pipes lowly?
Did the rifles fire o'er you as they lowered you down?
Did the bugle play the last post and chorus?
Did the pipes play the ";Flowers o' the Forest";?
Well the sun it shines now on these green fields of France
The warm wind blows gently and the red poppies dance
The trenches have vanished now under the plow
No gas and no barbed wire, no guns fire now
For here in this graveyard it's still no man's land
And the countless white crosses in mute witness stand
To man's blind indifference to his fellow man
And a whole generation who butchered and damned
(Chorus)
Well I can't help but wonder now, Willie McBride
Do all those who lie here know just why they died?
Did you really believe them when they told you the cause?
Did you really believe this war would end all wars?
But the suffering the sorrow the glory the shame
The killing, the dying, it was all done in vain
For William McBride it's all happened again
And again and again and again and again.
(Chorus)

Verse one: phesto
Redirect your motivation, while we collect the dough forsaken
Making a mockery of you mc's, we grimace malicious parodies
You're finished, allowing you to win is just not in us
That's horrendous just replenish apprentice retract all
The wack 'fore you niggaz get blackballed, you're small
And we make a spectacle of y'all withdrawal
Punk contention bitten for attention
Souls of mischief your worst, enemies, your energy's
Wasted, disintegrated, you'll be incinerated
By the innovative when I'm stimulated come pale
To embellish I relish mc's overzealous who fail us
Time will tell us, emulating recreation is colorless
Frontin like they on some other shit
Developing discover this irrelevant to wack intact exact
Well I belittle mc's, and hold no reefer
But sho don't sleep I'm out
Verse two: tajai
We the fruits of rotten seeds, nowadays it's bout greed
That's the policy, get from me, so I grab all I see
And after that we out, in a trail of laughter
Raps and doubtless claims of standards upheld and maintained
This ain't no, flash in the pan shit, just sell it and fade to nada
Or dance hits to propel, a major knot up in my billfold
One day I got up and I willed no rapper greater
They fake and still doze and act like they young as fuck
Hollerin about the niggaz they buck
Fallin out the windows made up like hoes if they get bucked
Lesson utmost, japanitos to one broke
Who have an ego, or fade you like vita largo
Damn where did he go? sucker felt the evil I know, word
Casino, I ant that ass like zebra skins
Fidos keepin pins and needles
Whether you tread or rest your head until ya
Succumb to the voice that's deep within, you should know
Chorus:
It's time to let the weak shit go, no more
And if you with us, hoe hoe!!!
You should know, it's time to let that wack shit go, no more
And if you with us, hoe hoe!!!
Verse three: opio
They say I'm too posessive, agressive
I make a mess of mc's depress em, plessin em
The west eclipse the rest, suggestions, to the ones in my profession
Testin, congestin, the mic doin impressions
Souls of mischief make em all fall in succession
If you're pressin luck self destruct
I'm vindictive, so descriptive
Intriguing on the mic, we don't see things alike
I strike at breakneck speeds and leave you think twice
'fore I sink ice cold lyrics and you're sliced
Through the mirror and it's right to the center
Where it hurts, convert
Reconsider the bitter, consequences
You're defenseless against us, you go berzerk
Ingesting mc's like clockwork, when I rock
Murderous rhymes one time for your mind
And drop dimes for them niggaz who don't get live
Verse four: a-plus
I reduce you to dust piles
Plus styles'll crush smiles, seducing women til they bust out
Of they garments, always give the crowd what they wanted
I rock the mic and now, they don't want you on it
So I own it, I make my grip tight
It's like I'm nuttin nice when I'm writing rhymes to cut and slice men
You wouldn't, I win every time that we clash
I will surpass ya, a-plus a known flasher
Rhyme if you wanna, it makes no difference
Cause you still gonna die, youse a goner
You shouldn't even try, why was you on the
Mic in the first place
You even chose tbe track, see yousa nigga with the worst taste
I make you niggaz disperse with haste
My tape first with bass hurts your face we curse the fates
I think that I should be your human idol
Makin mc's suicidal when they lose they title
Chorus: repeat 2x
Now, you should know, it's time to let that wack shit go
No mo', and if you with us, hoe hoe!!
Now you should know, you need to let that wack shit go
No mo', and if you with us, hoe hoe!!
Yeah, souls of mischief in the house like that
Souls of mischief rock the house
My man big domino, yeah yeah
Big casual, yeah yeah
...
Pep love
Can't forget jay-biz
Westbound, north side, like that
...
Hieroglyphics in the house
Let that wack shit go

You would hold your head up high
you even try
you would hold another hand:
oh understand!
They even see me under call
we under all,
we awful, awful, crawl
to hear my hour
come see me cry...
Just searching you even try
I can make you smile
if it's there will you go there too?
When I live I die!
They even see me under call
we under all, we awful, awful, crawl
because of you, to see me be.
(Last verse mostly garbled....but you can pick out "Tell me, Tell me, Tell me Yippee" and also: "Heavily spaced". According to the legend, this verse was originally meant to be understood, but when they f**ked it up in the studio, Syd liked it and kept it that way...)
(La dernire strophe est brouille... mais on peut y entendre "Tell me, Tell me, Tell me Yippee" et aussi: "Heavily spaced. Selon la lgende, cette strophe tait suppose tre aussi comprhensible que les autres, mais la prise a m..., Syd a aim et l'a garde telle quelle....

I owe it to you to remind you
of the greatest mystery,
to remind you of your great stories,
that you'll be telling,
when you're leaving and there's nothing
your hands will be holding
to remind you,
to remind you of complete restoration,
to remind you of the beautiful decorations
that you'll be wearing,
when you're leaving and there's something
your heart will be holding,
your heart will be holding
your heart will be holding
something something
your soul will be singing
your soul will be singing,

Maybe - I've got one tale of magic
From no man's land tonight
Some of it's tragic
But sometimes it's alright
No message of love
It's only concrete and steel
But that's not enough
Walk this road and you'll see how it feels
If that's all you want
If that's what you need
Cut me and I'll bleed
It's tearing me apart
Torturing my soul
Brings me to my knees
I'm waiting -
Waiting for changes
In this weary old world
There's a river of tears
But it won't wash away the fears
No message of love
It's only concrete and steel
But that's not enough
Walk this road and you'll see how it feels
If that's all you want
If that's what you need
Cut me and I'll bleed
It's tearing me apart
Torturing my soul
Brings me to my knees
There's a corner of my heart
That no one ever sees
In no man's land
No one touches me
No message of love
But you wait a little longer
That's not good enough
In this world you gotta be a little stronger
If that's all you want
If that's what you need
Cut me and I'll bleed
It's tearing me apart
Torturing my soul
Brings me to my knees
There's a corner of my heart
That no one ever sees
In no man's land

Banished to this place for a crime not committed
Alone I walk in fear of this forbidden zone
I feel a darkened force surrounding me
In solitude and pain I've wandered endlessly
Oh take this nightmare away
Why must I be tormented by this pain
Night falls as I approach the barren wasteland
The cries I hear are made of creatures still unknown
Strange thoughts and visions now are haunting me
Somehow I know this place was meant for me
Watch out! No mans land
Lost now in a world of pure darkness
No mans no mans land, world of pure evil
Alone the dark stranger walks through the barren wasteland
He struggles with the fact he has been
chosen to enter the forbidden zone
Why was he chosen for this journey and why have
the Gods selected him as the people's savior
All the while he listens to the voices in the wind
