I MET DARYL HANNAH IN A DREAM ( A MINOR #1)

I MET DARYL HANNAH IN A DREAM AND HER LOVE DID NOT SEEM
TO BE LIKE IN THE MOVIES, TO BE LIKE IN THE MOVIES

MY UNCLE SAM WAS A SIMPLE MAN<
SAID HE WAS WORKING ON A MASTER PLAN
IT DIDN´T WORK OUT LIKE IN THE MOVIES
IT DIDN´T WORK OUT LIKE IN THE MOVIES

I LEFT MY WIFE AND FAMILY FOR A GIRL WHO SEEMED TO BE
LIKE THE ONES IN THE MOVIES, LIKE THE ONES IN THE MOVIES

I MET DARYL HANNAH IN A DREAM AND HER LOVE DID NOT SEEM
TO BE LIKE IN THE MOVIES, TO BE LIKE IN THE MOVIES

THE DEAD END OF ME

THERE´S A ROOM IN MY HEART FOR YOU LOVE
THERE´S A DOOR WITH A LOCK TO YOU LOVE
AND I THREW AWAY THE KEY WAY OUT AT SEA
I SHALL NEVER EVER GO BACK AGAIN

NOW THERE WILL BE LONELY NIGHTS
STRUGGLE AND STRIFE
BUT YOU WALKED TO THE DEAD END OF ME
NOW THERE WILL BE LONELY NIGHTS
STRUGGLE AND STRIFE
BUT YOU WALKED TO THE DEAD END OF ME

ON THE NIGHT YOU SAID GOODBYE TO ME LOVE
A WICKED GIN SET OUT TO WIN ´GAINST ME LOVE
AND THEN YOU STABBED A KNIFE IN ME FROM THE BACK FOR ALL TO SEE
I CLOULD NEVER EVER TAKE YOU AGAIN

NOW THERE WILL BE LONELY NIGHTS
STRUGGLE AND STRIFE
BUT YOU WALKED TO THE DEAD END OF ME
NOW THERE WILL BE LONELY NIGHTS
STRUGGLE AND STRIFE
BUT YOU WALKED TO THE DEAD END OF ME

AIN´T GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE

MANAGER, MANAGER DRINK MY WINE
THE LABEL BOSS IS A SWINE
GOT THIRSTY WOMEN LURKING ´ROUND MY DOOR
READY TO SUCK ME DRY DOWN TO THE CORE
PEOPLE MOVE IN DIRECTIONS AND I´VE COME THIS FAR
WOKE UP ONE NIGHT AND JUMPED INTO MY CAR
AIN´T GONNA TAKE IT, AIN´T GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE

STARRY SKIES ABOVE ARE YOU WITH ME
I´M LOOKING FOR A PLACE WHERE I FEEL FREE
TIRED OF CHAINS DRAGGING ME CONSTANTLY DOWN
LIKE EVIL ROOTS ROOTED WAY INTO THE GROUND
PEOPLE MOVE IN DIRECTIONS AND I´VE COME THIS FAR
WOKE UP ONE NIGHT AND JUMPED INTO MY CAR
AIN´T GONNA TAKE IT, AIN´T GONNA TAKE IT NO MORE

BE GOOD TO ME

ON A BOAT WAY OUT OF GLANCE
SITS A GIRL WHO STANDS NO CHANCE
SHE CAME BY BOAT TO LIVE WITH ME
I THREW HER OUT AND TOOK THE KEY

MY OLD MAN ONCE CALLED ME UP
DRIED TO MAKE ME DRINK HIS CUP
I CUT THE LINE TO MAKE HIM STOP
HE NO LONGER LOOK ME UP
I AM NOT GONNA SEE HIM AGAIN

BE GOOD TO ME AND BE MY FRIEND
I WILL STAY UNTIL THE END
A LOVE AS PURE AS MOUNTAIN SNOW
YOU MESS AROUND AND YOU SHALL KNOW
I AM NOT GONNA SEE YOU AGAIN
I AM NOT GONNA SEE YOU AGAIN
NO I AM NOT GONNA SEE YOU AGAIN

YOU CAN´T BREAK ME DOWN

YOU CAN BREAK IT DOWN TO LEGAL ACTIONS
YOU CAN HAVE A FULLMOON EATING UP THE NIGHT
YOU CAN GET A CROWD OF PEOPLE TAKING NOTICE
YOU CAN BE A WOMAN TRYING TO PULL A HEIST
BUT YOU CAN´T BREAK ME DOWN, BREAK ME DOWN
BREAK ME DOWN, YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT

YOU COULD BECOME THE WRITER´S WRITER SITTING ON THE HILLTOP
YOU COULD GET A HOARD OF DIAPERS TO DIG THE SHIT
YOU COULD GET A PRIEST TO PRAY FOR YOUR REDEMPTION
YOU COULD GET MONEYDEALERS TO GET RID OF IT
BUT THERE´S ONE THING YOU CAN´T,
YOU CAN´T BREAK ME DOWN, BREAK ME DOWN,
YOU CAN´T BREAK ME DOWN, YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT

YOU COULD SLEEP WITH MEN AND WITH WOMEN
YOU COULD BE SUCKING COCKS IN THE BACKSEAT OF EXPENSIVE CARS
YOU COULD BE A HOST TO MANY FANCY DIFFERENT PEOPLE
YOU COULD PLAY YOUR HEART LIKE A DECK OF CARDS
BUT YOU CAN´T BREAK ME DOWN, YOU CAN´T BREAK ME DOWN
YOU CAN´T BREAK ME DOWN, YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT
I SAID YOU CAN´T BREAK ME DOWN, YOU CAN´T BREAK ME DOWN
YOU CAN´T BREAL ME DOWN, YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT

I´M SO SURE YOU CAN TELL

I´M SO SURE YOU CAN TELL
BY MY TIRED EYES THAT I WISH YOU WELL
BUT THERE´S A FEELING I CAN´T SHAKE OFF ANYMORE
THE BORDERS CROSSED IN YOUR MIND
GO BLURRY AT A CERTAIN TIME AND THERE´S THIS FEELING I CAN´T SHAKE OFF ANYMORE, ANYMORE

I BELIEVE, I BELIEVE THAT I´M FALLING
I BELIEVE, I BELIEVE THAT I´M FALLING
OUT OF LOVE, OUT OF LOVE

WHO´S TO TELL BUT YOURSELF WHAT IS GOOD FOR YOU
IS IT SOMEONE ELSE THERE IS THIS FEELING I CAN´T SHAKE OFF ANYMORE

I BELIEVE, I BELIEVE THAT I´M FALLING
I BELIEVE, I BELIEVE THAT I´M FALLING
OUT OF LOVE, OUT OF LOVE

IF I COULD CHANGE MY HEART I WOULD CHANGE IT BACK TO START
BUT THE END IS GETTING CLOSER DAY BY DAY
DAY BY DAY, DAY BY DAY

FAR AWAY (WALKING HOME AFTER A STRIPTEASE SHOW)

AND THE NIGHT SETS DOWN ON THIS LONELY TOWN
YOU WALK THE STREETS ALONE
NO SIGHT FOR TOMORROW, NO SIGHT TO RUN

AND IT´S GOING DOWN, AND IT´S GOING DOWN
AND YOU´RE FAR AWAY, YOU´RE FAR AWAY
YOU´RE FAR AWAY, YOU´RE FAR AWAY

AND YOU WAKE UP SHAKING, AND I WAKE UP COLD
WAKE UP FEELING I´M GETTING OLD,
AND IT LITTERS DOWN, AND IT BRINGS YOU DOWN
AND YOU´RE FAR AWAY, YOU´RE FAR AWAY
YOU´RE FAR AWAY, YOU´RE FAR AWAY

THREE WEEKS BLEAK (TAKE MY PAIN AWAY)

I COULD SWEAR I SAW YOU IN MY ROOM LAST NIGHT
BROUGHT BACK TOGETHER HUSBAND AND WIFE
TEN YEARS OF LIVING THREE WEEKS RUNNIG BLEAK
BY THE DARKNESS WILL OUR DREAMS SO SELDOM SPEAK

IN THE VIEW OF THE PARLOR WHERE THE OCEAN SHOWS
WE WENT NIGHT SWIMMING IN OUR MINDS AND LEATHER CLOTHES
AND WE FELT SOMETHING THAT WE NEVER FELT BEFORE
THE LUST TO DROWN OURSELVES BENEATH THE WAVES THAT HITS THE SHORE

SOMEWHERE IN THE DISTANCE DEATH UPON US WAITS
WILL WE BE MET BY LOVE OR A THUNDERSTORM OF HATE

SOMEWHERE IN THE DISTANCE DEATH UPON US WAITS
WILL WE BE MET BY LOVE OR A THUNDERSTORM OF HATE
SOME SPEAKS OF WISDOM THE OTHER PROVOKES A LAUGH
SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN THE POLES YOU COULD EASILY FIND YOURSELF TRAPPED

YOU COULD FIND YOURSELF TRAPPED, YOU COULD FIND YOURSELF TRAPPED,YOU COULD FIND YOURSELF TRAPPED,IF YOU GOT SOMETHING TO SAY, YOU COULD FIND YOURSELF TRAPPED, DO YOU GOT SOMETHING TO SAY, DO YOU GOT SOMETHING TO SAY, I GOT SOMETHING TO SAY, IGOT SOMETHING TO SAY, I GOT SOMETHING TO SAY, I GOT SOMETHING TO SAY,
I GOT SOMETHING TO SAY

TAKE MY PAIN AWAY, TAKE MY PAIN AWAY, TAKE MY PAIN AWAY
TAKE MY PAIN AWAY, TAKE MY PAIN AWAY, TAKE MY PAIN AWAY

FRANKIE & LOU

I GOT A FRIEND NAMED FRANKIE
HE LIVES IN HAMBURG, GERMANY
EVERYNIGHT´S A LONELY PARTY
SEARCHING THE STREETS FOR COMPANY

LOU REED´S DICK IS BIG AND MEAN
PROPER SIZE, A REAL FUCKING MACHINE
LOU REED´S DICK IS BIG AND MEAN
PROPER SIZE, A REAL FUCKING MACHINE

FRANKIE MET LOU REED IN A BAR ROOM
THEY HAD A TALK AND DRANK A BEER
LOU SAID " I WANT YOU TO GIVE ME A BLOW-JOB"
FRANKIE SAID "LET´S GET OUT OF HERE"

LOU REED´S DICK IS BIG AND MEAN
PROPER SIZE, A REAL FUCKING MACHINE
LOU REED´S DICK IS BIG AND MEAN
PROPER SIZE, A REAL FUCKING MACHINE

THERE ARE TIMES I CAN´T HELP THINKING
WHAT I´VE DONE JUST AIN´T NO GOOD
THEN THIS SLOWLY FEELING SINKING
A DEEPER SENSE OF BROTHERHOOD

LOU REED´S DICK IS BIG AND MEAN
PROPER SIZE, A REAL FUCKING MACHINE
LOU REED´S DICK IS BIG AND MEAN
PROPER SIZE, A REAL FUCKING MACHINE

FRANKIE & LOU JUST SPLIT THE SCENE
FRANKIE & LOU JUST SPLIT THE SCENE

ROCK´N´ROLL SUCKS

I WAS HOPING FOR AN ANGLE
SOMETHING TO LEAN ON
I WAS HOPING FOR THE TANGLES
IN MY SOUL TO BE UNDONE
BUT THERE IS NOTHING IN THESE CHORDS, MAN
NOTHING WITH ANY SUBSTANCE
AND WHEREVER I TURN MY HEAD TO LISTEN
ROCK´N´ROLL SUCKS

I WOULD RATHER BE A STRANGER
THEN TO BECOME ONE LIKE YOU
FAKING IT FOR MONEY
THEM RICHES ALL FALL THROUGH
YOU´RE SUCH A LOUSY POSER
AND I DON´T BELIEVE A WORD
YEAH WHEREVER I TURN MY HEAD TO LISTEN
ROCK´N´ROLL SUCKS

(INSTRUMENTAL)

AND NOTHING EVER CHANGE, MAN
IT ALL JUST STAYS THE SAME
YOU COULD MOVE TO ANOTHER COUNTRY
YOU COULD EVEN CHANGE YOUR NAME
BUT THE WOUNDS WILL STILL BE OPEN
AND THE PAIN WILL BEAT IN VAIN
YEAH WHEREVER YOU TURN YOUR HEAD TO LISTEN
ROCK´N´ROLL SUCKS

KILLER

I WILL STRIKE WHEN YOU LEAST EXPECT IT
I GOT A KNIFE AND YOU BETTER RESPECT IT
MOLESTING YOUR BODY, I WILL CRUCIFY YOUR MIND
I´M A KILLER, AND I LIVE TO WATCH YOU DIE

ALL THAT TORTURE, I REALLY DIG THAT STUFF
I´M SO DRIVEN, DON´T KNOW WHAT COULD MAKE IT STOP
MOLESTING YOUR BODY, I WILL CRUCIFY YOUR MIND
I´M A KILLER, AND I LIVE TO WATCH YOU DIE

(Instrumental)

I TAKE PLEASURE, WATCHING YOU GRASP FOR BREATH
I TAKE PLEASURE, BEING THE MASTER OF YOUR DEATH
MOLESTING YOUR BODY, I WILL CRUCIFY YOUR MIND
I´M A KILLER, AND I LIVE TO WATCH YOU DIE

I´M A KILLER, AND I LIVE TO WATCH YOU DIE
I´M A KILLER, AND I LIVE TO WATCH YOU DIE
I´M A KILLER, AND I LIVE TO WATCH YOU DIE

PISTOL

I HOLD WITHIN EVERY INCH OF SIN
TO KEEP ME FROM DRYING UP
NO ONE KNOWS WHAT I´VE SEEN
NOTHING SHOWS BUT THIS TICKET
I GOT MY PISTOL, COCKED RIGHT NOW
I SAID, GOT MY PISTOL IN PLACE

LIVE WITHIN, LIVE IN SIN
TONIGHT I´LL BREAK DOWN THIS SHELTER
GROOVY LOVE, SHE´S ABOVE
AND ALL OUR CRIMES ARE FORGIVEN
I GOT MY PISTOL, COCKED RIGHT NOW
I SAID, GOT MY PISTOL IN PLACE

(Instrumental)

I GOT MY PISTOL, COCKED RIGHT NOW
I SAID, GOT MY PISTOL IN PLACE

TWO STEPS

YOU´RE TWO STEPS AWAY FROM ME
ARE YOU WALKING?
YOU´RE TWO STEPS AWAY FROM ME
ARE YOU WALKING?

I GOT SOMETHING ON MY MIND
THERE´S A MOON, AND I FEEL FINE
DON´T WANT THIS NIGHT TO END WITH YOU JUST WALKING
DON´T WANNA READ BETWEEN THE LINES
DON´T WANNA WASTE MORE PRECIOUS TIME
I´M IN THE MOOD FOR SOMETHING ELSE THAN TALKING

YOU´RE TWO STEPS AWAY FROM ME
I´M STILL DRINKING
YOU´RE TWO STEPS AWAY FROM ME
I´M STILL DRINKING

YOU´RE TWO STEPS AWAY FROM ME
AND STILL THINKING
YOU´RE TWO STEPS AWAY FROM ME
AND STILL THINKING

I GOT SOMETHING ON MY MIND
THERE´S A MOON, AND I FEEL FINE
DON´T WANT THIS NIGHT TO END WITH YOU JUST WALKING
DON´T WANNA READ BETWEEN THE LINES
DON´T WANNA WASTE MORE PRECIOUS TIME
I´M IN THE MOOD FOR SOMETHING ELSE THAN TALKING

RELIGIOUS

GOD HAS FALLEN SILENT IN MY HEART AGAIN
FALLEN SILENT IN MY HEART AGAIN
WHAT TO DO, WHERE TO GO
WHERE TO STAY, WHERE TO LAY
ON THE BACK STREETS
PROSTITUTES, FIGURINES, WASHING MACHINES
ONE-NIGHT- QUEENS, JIM BEAM´S, ALCOHOL, ALCOHOL

THERE´S A PLACE IN MY HEART, I´M AFRAID TO GO
THERE´S A PLACE IN MY HEART, I´M AFRAID TO GO
YOUR CLOSENESS, I´M AFRAID TO FUCK IT UP
YOUR CLOSENESS, I´M AFRAID TO FUCK IT UP
TRY STANDING IN MY SHOES, TRY STANDING IN MY SHOES

FATHER, PLEASE DON´T BE LOST TO ME
LET ME REACH YOU, LET ME SEE
FATHER, PLEASE DON´T BE LOST TO ME
LET ME REACH YOU, LET ME SEE

OUTTRO: REPEAT LAST CHORUS

STILL COUNTRY

SHE TOLD ME "SON, THE WORLD AIN´T EASILY WON
KEEP YOUR FAITH, AND YOU´LL DO ALL RIGHT"
NOW I´M CHASING CARS, AND I´M CRUSING BARS
GOING NOWHERE IN A BROKEN DREAM
THE SCARS YOU CARRY ARE NOT EASILY LOST

WHEN THE WALL CAME DOWN
NEW FRIENDS WERE FOUND
BUT A GOOD FRIEND CAN BE HARD TO KEEP
IF I CLAIM MY GROUND IN THIS CROWDED TOWN
WOULD I STILL LONG FOR THE FIRST TRAIN BACK HOME
THE SCARS WE CARRY ARE NOT EASILY LOST

WELL THE SUN GOES ROUND
LOOKING SAFE & SOUND
NOT A TEARDROP DRIPPING LOW
ALTHOUGH I KNOW SHE´LL BE, ONE DAY STRONG AND FREE
THE SCARS WE CARRY ARE NOT EASILY LOST
AND NOTHING IS EASILY WON
NO, NOTHING IS EASILY WON
THAT´S, NOTHING IS EASILY WON

WAKE ME UP

I DREAMED THIS MORNING
YOU WOULD WEAR YOUR DISGUISE
YOU TURNED AROUND AND TOLD ME
TOLD ME ALL YOUR SHABBY LIES
I TURNED BACK THE CARPET
DANCED INTO MY MIND
KNOWING THAT IF I COULD REALLY SEE YOU
I ´D PREFER TO BE BLIND

WAKE ME UP WHEN YOUR HEART STARTS TO TURN
WAKE ME UP WHEN YOUR HEART STARTS TO BURN
WAKE ME UP WHEN YOU´RE READY TO LEARN

I WALKED TO THE STATION
TO MISS THE MORNING TRAIN
I NEVER EVEN KNEW IF I´D EVER GET BACK AGAIN
KISSED THE GIRL I WAS WITH
WISHING SHE WAS YOU
I´M LOST IN THIS ADVENTURE
WEARING OUT MY SHOES

WAKE ME UP WHEN THE MAGAZINE DRY
WAKE ME UP WHEN THE SKY STARTS TO CRY
WAKE ME UP BEFORE IT´S TOO LATE
FOR WE KNOW WE CAN NEVER ESCAPE OUR FATE

WAKE ME UP
WAKE ME UP
AND HOLD ME FOR THE WHOLE OF TIME
CAUSE FOR ONCE MORE IN MY LIFE I NEED TO HEAR YOU SIGH

WAKE ME UP WHEN YOUR HEART STARTS TO TURN
WAKE ME UP WHEN YOUR HEART STARTS TO BURN
WAKE ME UP WHEN YOU´RE READY TO LEARN

SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH

THERE IS NOTHING I WOULD RATHER DO
THAN TO FUCK YOU, BABE
THERE IS NOTHING I WOULD RATHER DO
THAN TO SUCK YOU, BABE
HARD AND GOOD

GIVE ME SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH
SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH

THERE IS NOTHING I WOULD RATHER DO
THAN TO PUNCH YOU, BABE
THERE IS NOTHING I WOULD RATHER DO
THAN TO PUNISH YOU, BABE
HARD AND GOOD

GIVE ME SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH
SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH
THERE IS NOTHING I´D RATHER DO
THAN TO GET RID OF MYSELF, RID OF MYSELF
I HATE ME WITH EVERY FRAME OF MY MIND
MY MIND, YES MY MIND

GIVE ME SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH
SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH
GIVE ME SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH
SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH
SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH
GIVE ME SEX, VIOLENCE & DEATH

WINTERSONG

IF I WAS TO PLAY YOUR GAME
IF I WAS TO STRIP AWAY THE SHAME
WOULD YOU GUIDE ME THROUGH THE SNOW
WOULD YOU GUIDE ME THROUGH THE SNOW

IF I WAS TO CRUMBLE AT YOUR FEET
LICK YOUR WOUNDS MAKE MY RETREAT
WOULD YOU GUIDE ME THROUGH THE SNOW
WOULD YOU GUIDE ME THROUGH THE SNOW

IF I WAS GIVING UP MY NAME
GIVE YOU THE MASTER INTO MY BRAIN
WOULD YOU GUIDE ME THROUGH THE SNOW
WOULD YOU GUIDE ME THROUGH THE SNOW
WOULD YOU GUIDE ME THROUGH THE SNOW

I WOULD GO MAD

I WOULD GO MAD BY THE SOUND OF YOUR VOICE
I WOULD GO MAD BY THE SIGT OF YOUR FACE
SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE, SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE

I WOULD GO MAD, IF YOU TOLD ME YOU MISS ME
I WOULD GO MAD IF YOU TOLD ME YOU´D FOUND SOMEONE NEW
SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE, SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE
SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE, SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE

ALL I´M THINKING IS NOT TO BE
SOMEONE DROWNING IN YOUR DYING SEA

I WOULD GO MAD BY THE SOUND OF YOUR VOICE
I WOULD GO MAD BY THE SIGT OF YOUR FACE
SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE, SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE
SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE, SO I KEEP MY DISTANCE

IF I HAD WINGS

IF I COULD SEE AGAIN
IF I COULD SEE AGAIN
IF I COULD SEE AGAIN
I WOULD SEE MANY THINGS

IF I GOT A SECOND CHANCE
IF I GOT A SECOND CHANCE
IF I GOT A SECOND CHANCE
I WOULD LIVE OUT MANY THINGS

IF I COULD PUT ON WINGS
IF I COULD PUT ON WINGS
IF I COULD PUT ON WINGS
I WOULD FLY MANY THINGS
I WOULD FLY MANY THINGS
I WOULD FLY MANY THINGS

COMPLICATED

I GOT A BENCH
ALL I NEED IS A LTTLE PIECE OF LAND TO PUT IT ON
I GOT A BENCH
ALL I NEED IS A LITTLE PIECE OF LAND TO PUT IT ON
SOMEONE ASK ME; WHY DON´T YOU GET SOME
I MUMBLE SOMETHING AND SAY;
IT´S A LITTLE BIT COMPLICATED
COMPLICATED, IT´S A LITTLE BIT COMPLICATED

FRANK GOT BACK FROM HOLIDAY
FRANK GOT BACK FROM HOLIDAY
WHEN I ASK HIM; WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU
HE LIGHTS UP A CIGARETTE AND CLEARLY SHOWS
IT GOT COMPLICATED
COMPLICATED, IT´S A LITTLE BIT COMPLICATED

JUDAS ISCARIOT BETRAYED JESUS
JUDAS ISCARIOT BETRAYED JESUS
BETRAYED HIM WITH A KISS,
YOU CAN REST ASSURE ON A NIGHT LIKE THIS;
IT GOT COMPLICATED
COMPLICATED, IT´S A LITTLE BIT COMPLICATED

BILLIE HOLIDAY

ELEONORA DE VIESE, APRIL 7, 1915
THE ILLEGITIMATE CHILD OF A HOUSEMAID
BILLIE HOLIDAY, BILLIE HOLIDAY

SCRUBBING FLOORS FOR A LIVING,
LATER TO TURN TRICKS
SHE COULD SING THE BLUES
FROM THE DEVIL´S TEMPTING LIPS
BILLIE HOLIDAY, BILLIE HOLIDAY

YOU´D SEE HER IN RICHES,
PEARLS AND FURS
SOMETIMES I WONDER
IF SHE EVER FELT LIKE BEING CURSED
BILLIE HOLIDAY, BILLIE HOLIDAY

THERE WAS NOTHING ABOUT LIVING
ON THE SIDEWALKS SHE DID NOT KNOW
THERE WAS NOTHING ABOUT LIVING
ON THE SIDEWALKS SHE DID NOT KNOW

GIVE ME CODEINE, HE´S A TRUSTED FRIEND
GIVE ME MORPHINE, AND I´LL SAY IT AGAIN
BILLIE HOLIDAY, BILLIE HOLIDAY

GIVE ME A BOAT, GIVE ME SOME WIND
SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE CHEACKIN´ IN
LIKE BILLIE HOLIDAY, BILLIE HOLIDAY

THERE WAS NOTHING ABOUT LIVING
ON THE SIDEWALKS SHE DID NOT KNOW
THERE WAS NOTHING ABOUT LIVING
ON THE SIDEWALKS SHE DID NOT KNOW

FLORA IN THE DARKROOM

I NEVER WANTED TO STICK BY YOU BUT I DID IT ANYWAY
I NEVER WANTED TO BLOW THE HORN SO I JUST LET IT STAY
I´M AN ASSHOLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
I´M AN ASSHOLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART

I NEVER WANTED TO STEAL YOUR BEAUTY,
SMASH IT AGAINST THE WALL
I NEVER WANTED TO FALL FROM GRACE, BUT LORD DID I FALL
I´M AN ASSHOLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
I´M AN ASSHOLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART

I NEVER WANTED TO PLAY AROUND, BUT I DID IT LIKE THE REST
I NEVER WANTED TO SHAKE THOSE HANDS,
BUT I WAS UP AGAINST THE BEST

I´M AN ASSHOLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
I´M AN ASSHOLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
I´M AN ASSHOLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
I´M AN ASSHOLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART

COMBINATION FACTOR

IT´S NOT YOU, IT´S NOT ME
IT´S A COMBINATION FACTOR
IT´S NOT HIM, IT´S NOT HER
IT´S A COMBINATION FACTOR

I LOST MY FRAME OF REFERENCE
CAN I GET BACK MY PRIVILEGE TO THE INSIDER DEAL
FELLUJAH CADIZ, FELLUJAH CADIZ

IT´S NOT THEM, IT´S NOT US
IT´S A COMBINATION FACTOR
IT´S NOT THIS, IT´S NOT THAT
IT´S A COMBINATION FACTOR

I LOST MY FRAME OF REFERENCE
CAN I GET BACK MY PRIVILEGE TO THE INSIDER DEAL
FELLUJAH CADIZ, FELLUJAH CADIZ
FELLUJAH CADIZ, FELLUJAH CADIZ

PHIL SPECTOR (IN THE TWILIGHT)

PHIL SPECTOR IN THE TWILIGHT, PISTOLS CRACK AT DAWN
CRAZY MOTHERFUCKER, SITTING ON THE LAWN
COME AND GET ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN
COME AND GET ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN

NIKKI SHOT A SPEEDBALL, STRAIGHT INTO HIS VEINS
LAST THING HE REMEMBERS, ´FORE THE DRUGS TOOK OUT HIS BRAINS
COME AND GET ME, BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN
COME AND GET ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN

SOMETIMES I WONDER WHAT IT TAKES TO STOP
ALL THIS WHORING ON THE WEEKENDS MY LEVEL NEVER DROP
COME AND GET ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN
COME AND GET ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN

ATTA NEVER LAUGHED, ATTA NEVER CRIED
BUT HE DROVE THAT BOEING PLANE WITH MIGHTY MIGHT
COME AND GET ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN
COME AND GET ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN
COME AND GET ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN
COME AND GET ME BEFORE I DO IT AGAIN

SHOULD WE MEET ON THE STREET

I DON´T WANT YOU TO COME WITH YOUR TEARS
I DON´T WANT YOU TO PLAY WITH MY FEARS
I´M NO LONGER WILLING TO PAY
THE PRICE YOUR ASKING
TO KEEP YOUR LOVE FROM GOING AWAY

SHOULD WE MEET ON THE STREET, WALK ON
SHOULD WE MEET ON THE STREET, WALK ON

I DON´T WANT YOU TO COME WITH YOUR NOISE
I DON´T WANT YOU TO ARGUE WITH MY CHOICE
I DON´T WAN´T TO STAY
I CLOSE MY EYES NOW, AND THEN I DRIFT AWAY

SHOULD WE MEET ON THE STREET, WALK ON
SHOULD WE MEET ON THE STREET, WALK ON

WALK ON, WALK ON, WALK ON, WALK ON

YEAH, SHOULD WE MEET ON THE STREET, WALK ON
SHOULD WE MEET ON THE STREET, WALK ON
OH YEAH, SHOULD WE MEET ON THE STREET, JUST WALK ON
OH YEAH, SHOULD WE MEET ON THE STREET, WALK ON

WALK ON, WALK ON, WALK ON, WALK ON

MOUNTAINS ON THE MOON

beneath my boner hang jupiter balls
they´re loaded with juices, they´d shoot down these walls
and just like nanny when giving me head
i´m hurting in places, i´m swollen and red

and rebecca dance so much better than she talks
and if i put up the money she´d take me for a walk
but just like nanny when giving me head
she´s hurting in places, she´s swollen and red

when jackie came with a barrel and a gun
i saw his footprints shining in the sun
and just like nanny when giving me head
he was hurting in places, swollen and red
he was hurting in places, swollen and red

LONG TIME AGO

it just don´t hurt no more, every tear is gone
but i still feel within when something is wrong
the rage won´t pound like nails to my soul
i moved away from that long time ago
it just don´t hurt no more, every tear is gone
but i still feel within when something is wrong
the rage won´t pound like nails to my soul
i moved away from that long time ago
it just don´t hurt no more, every tear is gone
but i still feel within when something is wrong
the rage won´t pound like nails to my soul
i moved away from that long time ago

i moved away from that long time ago
i moved away from that long time ago
i moved away from that long time ago

TAKE MY LOVE WITH YOU

take my love with you wherever you go
take my love with you wherever you go
take my love with you wherever you go
take my love with you wherever you go
god i miss you so much i could cry

take my love with you wherever you go
take my love with you wherever you go
take my love with you wherever you go
take my love with you wherever you go
god i miss you so much i could cry
yes i miss you so much i could cry

take my love with you wherever you go

take my love with you wherever you go
take my love with you wherever you go
god i miss you so much i could cry
god i miss you so much i could cry
yes i miss you so much i could cry

5 IN THE MORNING

5 in the morning, no sign no warning
in like a stranger, your deafness arranger
crawl over barbed wire, into the hideouts of your mind
and with no signposts to tell you where to go
you're lost babe, like a child

i can tell by your laughter, you're really not after
fake institutions, quick ragged solutions
crawl over barbed wire, into the hideouts of your mind
and with no signposts to tell you where to go
you're lost babe, like a child

ba- ra- ba- ra- ra
ba- ra- ba- ra- ra
ba- ra- ba- ra- ra
ba- ra- ra- ra- ra

MERCY OF MARIA

as i drink too much
as i scream out of lust
at the moon for someone to reach out and touch me
as i fail to please what the moon won´t ease
i can´t sit still from running wild
as i wipe my past for something good to last
as demons are crawling under my skin
as i walk away there`s nothing to do but pray
that maria will take me in her arms

at the mercy of maria, will i lay my aching head
at the mercy of maria, will i find my resting place
at the mercy of maria, will i lay my aching head
at the mercy of maria, will i find my resting place

OVER THE OCEAN

after the trenches, after the fight,
i raise my head, into the light
and send my love, over the ocean
nightshift at the diner, steady wheels, night-liner
go send my love, over the ocean
like the autumn leaves on the ground,
like the snow is coming down
just like the colors spring will bring,
like the midsummer fest soon to begin
i love you

you had a ball, i made the call,
and just like a baby starts to crawl
i send my love, over the ocean
yet you spoke untrue, i was feeling blue,
i made the cut, just in time enough
to send my love, over the ocean
like the autumn leaves on the ground,
like the snow is coming down
like the colors spring will bring,
like the midsummer fest soon to begin
i love you

YOUR PRINCE WILL COME

one day your prince will come
a diamond in the rough
when he spoke, you understood me
on the beach, a faded memory

on the beach, a faded memory
on the beach, a faded memory
on the beach, a faded memory
on the beach, a faded memory

THE BALLAD OF EMMA DeLONER

all my dreams go to pieces each time she pass me by
and all my friends keep saying that girl just ain´t the loving kind
but whatever i do to hold back brings me down
whatever i do to hold back brings me down

comes a time you look for trouble,
comes a time it comes your way
and she came to me in the midnight hour
on a cold winter´s day
she stood there in my room, all dressed in lace
and she placed my body and soul upon a bed of grace
and the children were crying driving me insane
and all this took place while the drunks were dancing to the rhythm of the rain
but i´m going back to see her again
cause whatever i do to hold back brings me down
whatever i do to hold back brings me down

don´t bring me down
don´t bring me down
don´t bring me down
don´t bring me down

DAYS OF GOLD

and the day is thru, and i´m tired
yeah the day is thru, and i´m tired
days of gold, hard to hold
and i think about my brother
and i think about my mother
and i think about my father
days of gold, hard to hold

and i think about the children
and i think about my lover
and i say a prayer like no other
days of gold, hard to hold
and i think of friends, some were leaving
some i threw away, some were receiving
and i wonder when i´m going
and i know it will be days of gold, days of gold

hard to hold, hard to hold, hard to hold
hard to hold, hard to hold, hard to hold

TWO RED BALLOONS

(instrumental)

PAINTING BY MATISSE

she roams within me like a painting by matisse
crystal clear with every color at ease
and she gives every angle a whole new light
the way i´m falling like a river from a mountain free
the way i´m falling like a river from a mountain free

she roams within me like a painting by matisse
crystal clear with every color at ease

SETTLE DOWN

gonna put my suitcase in the corner
and settle down, settle down
stop sailing away on open waters
and settle down, settle down

if god above permits the time
i will fulfill this dream of mine
and you can trust these words i say
i´m gonna stop from running away

it took me forever to reach this point
to settle down, settle down
i´m so tired of these ol´ joints
i´m gonna settle down, settle down
if god above permits the time
i will fulfill this dream of mine
and you can trust these words i say
i´m gonna stop from running away
i´m gonna stop from running away
i´m gonna stop from running away
