Bring me home

There is this emptyness I carry around with me Just like a hole that YOU will never see I wander in the sun but it's cold inside of me I'm a monkey in the zoo but someone cut my tree Hey God if you are really up there and I am not alone Just do me a favor, Bring me home Just do me a favor, Bring me home My oversized bedroom appears so small without YOU I've tried it all from pills to gin but haven't found the clue It's like someone has locked the door so I can't get through to where the emptyness is wiped away by you Hey God if you are really up there and I am not alone Just do me a favor, Bring me home

Riding On a Dead Horse

I'm out in the streets I'm feeling pretty sav I don't know where to go I miss the warm sheets Of my narrow city cave I am drivin' slow Stop and Go She said her love is deeper than I know Is it so, that's what I'm aking myself It's ten past ten I stop for some gas A pack of cigarettes And a chat with the moon The city disappears I am counting my miles It's cold outside, tonight She said her love is deeper than I know Is it so, that's what I'm asking She said her love is stronger than herself Is that so, or am I just riding on a dead horse Riding on a dead horse She said her love is deeper than I know Is it so, that's what I'm asking She said her love is stronger than herself Is it so, or am I just riding on a dead horse Riding on a dead horse

Turn Around

It lookes like a long way I speed like from the fast line You don't look around So clear, clear as the target Running up in the eyes, with no shoes on. You're like a vampire at sunset Like a canibal at the zoo Like a snowman in a fur So what you're gonna do? Turn around before it's all too late You are going one step forward and two steps back Turn around before it's all too late YOU are going one step forward and two steps back You swim with sharks Diving in the deep sea with laughing gas So white, white is the snow Easy to get and hard to get rid of you are like a gun without a trigger Like a burglar on a grill Like a soldier on a peace call With a license to kill Turn around before it's all too late you are going one step forward and two steps back

Donīt Slow Down

96 degrees the sun is burning "Ra" is smiling when the whip comes down The caravan of stones creeps through the desert The valley of Kings is filled with sound, is filled with sound Hurry up come on pull boys come on never stop Hurry up the pharao's dying The pyramid grows higher and higher The treasure chamber is already filled The pharao is ill no time to waste The architects pray before they get killed, before they get killed Hurry up come on pull boys come on never stop Hurry up the pharao's dying Don't slow down Tons of stones for the honour of the crown Don't slow down Pull that stone in the name of the crown 86 degrees in the city of Rome The pope decides he needs a new dome So suffer boys in the name of god And empty your pockets for his new home for his new dome Hurry up come on pull boys come on never stop Hurry up the pharao's dying Don't slow down Tons of stones for the honour of the crown Don't slow down Pull that stone in the name of the crown

Around My world In 80 Days

And now we've finally reached the point And you want to get in I guess that I should tell you That there's just one thing Just a little journey, I have to send you on Just to figure out Where I'm coming from And where you do belong Around my world in 80 days Maybe more if it pays Around my love, my evil ways Around my head in 80 days Discover dungeons of dispair That is what you have to share If you walk this way with me But our love will make us free Might be that you'll like it Could be thatyou're shocked But don't hesitate to open doors that seem locked Maybe you'll find fear Maybe you'll see clear Maybe you'll find an open heart So sincere That want's you to be near Around my world in 80 days Maybe more if it pays Around my love, my evil ways Around my head in 80 days Discover dungeons of dispair That is what you have to share If you walk this way with me But our love will make us free

Afternoon In The Cemetery

A dog with a lame leg drags itself around the tombs Mrs. Watson talks with someone who's been dead for years A sickly smell of urine rising from her tights two old ladies on a park bench sitting silent already dead What a wonderfull place to have a cup of tea What a wonderfull place to read a book 'bout love What a wonderfull place to sit around with me under a tree on an afternoon in the cemetery Millions of flies spiral around a cross before they land In a fresh grave someone dug last night The little chappel looks so sad even the flowers seem to cry And all those people seem to wait for the moment they will die What a wonderfull place to have a cup of tea What a wonderfull place to read a book 'bout love What a wonderfull place to sit around with me under a tree on an afternoon in the cemetery

In Love with a clown

You know I care a lot I gave you everything I got The little that I have, yeah Between the cigarettes and coke I always find a joke To make you smile And sometimes when you are down I will come around To put your feet back on the ground, oh yeah `cause you are in love with a Clown In LOVE with a Clown Your mom is not my friend, she didn't like the band But that's okay with me And the money that I make, can't pay the China that I break That's okay with me And I always spill with wine, I never come in time I forget to wash my feet But I give you what you need Life is upside down `cause you are in love with a Clown In love with a Clown I never promised you diamonds and pearls `cause I would lose them somewhere in the town You searched so hard for the men of your dreams And what is what you found The love of a Clown The love of a Clown The love of a Clown The love of a Clown And I always spill with wine, I never come in time I forget to wash my feet But I give you what you need Life is upside down `cause you are in love with a Clown

Enough Is Not Enough

Everything has two sides, very plain to see You walk alone beside the road if you're asking me Relations are so fragile, easy to destroy And when the mess is done it's all over boy Money rules and money talks, that's what it's all about Use your head as you got one, please don't scream and shout You've got lawyers in your background We know they really hurt But in the end you can be sure They take all you get Why do you want more than what is yours? I guess enough is not enough! Why do you want more than what is yours? I guess enough is not enough! A feature's still unknown, you can't even see The way that leads you out of here, will bring you back to me And when you try to sleep at night, there're numbers in your head Paragraphs and bank accounts, you're drowning in your sweat Hate will never help you out, where you brought yourself in Some say you better cool your head, think about begin To try to find the reasons from where the trouble came Before you start to suffocate In your shame Why do you want more than what is yours? I guess enough is not enough! Why do you want more than what is yours? I guess enough is not enough! Why do you want more than what is yours? I guess enough is not enough!

Brilliant Thieves

It's a sunny afternoon I try to write a song A little bit of this And a little bit of that On tape before it's gone It sounds a bit like R.E.M. And a little bit like Sting Mix it in a bucket Let' see what it might bring All in all we're just brilliant thieves All in all we're just brilliant thieves All in all we're just brilliant thieves It seems that something's missing So we add a piece of Cure But now it is not hard enough We're changing that for sure Just a bit Metallica And a little spoon of Clash Ready is the Fury song OK transfer the cash All in all we're just brilliant thieves All in all we're just brilliant thieves All in all we're just brilliant thieves

Bar des boulistes

Far from home, but close to Marseille Is a little cute town, where we decided to stay Everything was fine, and nothing that we missed Where we spent all night At the Bar des boulistes A pluspoint is, if you drive a french car And laugh about jokes 'bout the second world war But if you don't, Mr. Fernandel will clinch his fist And knock you out Out of the Bar des boulistes The Bar des boulistes All our problems so far away So we drank all night and slept all day For a beer drinking German it's hard to exist With French wine junkies At the Bar des boulistes At the Bar des boulistes Bar des boulistes, hey hey Bar des boulistes All our problems so far away So we drank all night and slept all day For a beer drinking German it's hard to exist With French wine junkies At the Bar des boulistes Bar des boulistes

My Little World

Welcome to my little world Piggys playing in the dirt Children laughing under the sun They all have fun Sorry it's too bad It's only in my head Welcome to my little dream Chocolate ice and lots of cream You'll never hear an angry word >The cat loves the bird So sorry it's too bad It's only in my head Welcome to my little world Piggys playing in the dirt Children laughing under the sun They all have fun Sorry it's too bad It's only in my head

Ship of Fools

Hello Europe here we are, everything is easy Let's cross the border without stop Italian pasta mixed with fine French wine would be great My stomach knows no state Blond girls from Sweden And if that's garden of eden I think that's OK Turkish dope found a license of the pope Don't think that's the only way. Europe, Europe rules! Let's have a drink in a ship of fools Europe, Europe rules! Let's have a drink in a ship of fools Allright! >Belgium beer with a Jaegermeister-deer That's why we here, I think (this one's not for you) And Swiss francs brought to polish banks That's life! A hard bone to chew I don't want no Austrians be instructors In my home I guess there's something better Spanish guitars combined with twenty German tubas That won't work but it really doesn't matter Europe, Europe rules! Let's have a drink in a ship of fools

Out On The Weekend

Think I'll pack it in and buy a pick-up Take it down to L.A. Find a place to call my own and try to fix up Start a brand new day The woman I'm thinking of - she loved me all up But I'm so down today She's so fine she's in my mind I hear her callin' See the lonely boy, out on the weekend Trying to make it stay Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and Can't begin to say She got pictures on the wall That make me look up From her big brass bed Now I'm running down the road trying to stay up Somewhere in her head The woman I'm thinking of - she loved me all up But I'm so down today She's so fine she's in my mind I hear her callin' See the lonely boy, out on the weekend Trying to make it pay Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and Can't begin to say
