bound for nowhere

 

Donīt let me down

 

I feel – somebodyīs gonna let me down

I fear – it wonīt do me no good

I feel – like I got to leave this town

I need – to change my neighbourhood

and I feel – somebodyīs gonna steal my heart away

and I fear – it wonīt do me no good

I need – to hide myself behind the games I play

and I feel – itīs better if I donīt move

hey sugar, hey sugar

please donīt let me down

I feel – I donīt wanna be alone at all

I think – I could stand a little love

I feel – I gotta dare to let myself fall

I see – I canīt feel from above

and believe – youīll never ever find a better one

youīll see – if you are not blind

oh honey, oh honey

please donīt let me down

shine like a star….come and save me…

refrain

 

 

Someone to love

every time i see you passing by
i think of you
in a sexy sort of way
causing grief controlling my emotions
shaking the hip
you're the star of my resort
your big smile is all i can see
when i close my eyes
till the sun is waking up
everybody needs someone to love
and i got you in my dreams
never thought i'd like the kinda girl
you seem to be
now i ain't gonna let you go
and if you had a lot of money
maybe you
could even buy my a wedding ring
refrain
so let me do it
so let me do it again
i wanna do it
just let me do it

Story of sweet Mary

 

have you seen sweet mary lately

she flowers, sheīs fond of asian

power comes by meditation

she needs her meditation

but I wonder if sheīs really happy now

cause she looks a little stressed out

did she really find what she was looking for

her staring eyes look bosed

is she still feeling down

did she fall to the ground

is she still feeling down

BOUND FOR NOWHERE

have you seen sweet mary lately

sheīs not as pretty as she used to beating on a door till someone opened

she gets what sheīs hung up on how I wonder if sheīs really happy now

sheīs already in the last round

was it worth at all what she was looking for

ending up like a whore

refrain

have you seen sweet mary lately

sheīs doing better than be

forced with drawal but clean and sober now

into what she has found

now I wonder if sheīs finally happy now

is that what itīs all about

or is she still feeling down

still on the ground

is she still feeling down

BOUND FOR NOWHERE

 

 

Coming home

 

I got a past but I donīt wanna talk about it

I just came back to see right where it started

Now that Iīm here I donīt know where

I am somehow

Thoughtfully scratching it out over my right eyebrow

Here is a tree and the branch I saw

You hanging on

Sitting alone on a hill

Staring at your windwsill

Can you hear me moan

Baby I am coming home

Home?

I got a past but I donīt wanna talk about it

I just came back to see right where it started

Wasīnt I right when I left what

I could not stand

Wasnīt my fault but the guilt is on my hands

Could I have done anything what a waste oh loving

How could you make me see what a waste oh loving

Refrain

 

 

Johnny Rain

 

I feel shitty and a bit confused

Whoever I want is who I lose

Itīs raining hard and Iīm soaked to the skin

I can see her window, but I canīt see in

Someoneīs gonna save your day someoneīs gonna come to stay

Someoneīs gonna call you by name

Iīve heard it said looks donīt mean a thing but

my ugly friends telephone never rings

if I looked better Iīd bargain for friends and

maybe the girls wouldnīt drive me round the bend

someoneīs gonna save their day

someoneīs gonna come to stay

someoneīs gonna call me by name

I donīt wanna complain

My name is johnny rain

Still Iīm standing alone in the rain

A wet cigarette is all the remains

I wish I was crazy enough for the kill

But killing her boyfriend is against her will

Someoneīs gonna save your day

Someomeīs gonna come to stay

Someoneīs gonna call you by name

Refrain

 

 

Waiting for the sun

i don't ever let you go
always make me find my flow
always find a way to smile
always try to get me high
you're my lovedrug
i don't ever let you go
always make me find my flow
always find a way to smile
always try to get me high
you're my lovedrug
waiting for the sun
we've just done for what we burn
it feels great to have you by my side
i beg and yearn would never turn
you will never have to wait in line
i'm a little scared of you
always seem to be so true
always acting like a seer
always take away my fear of low-fis
i'm a little scared of you
always seem to be so true
acting like a seer
always take away my fear...of low-fiīs

refrain
I will always light a candle for the mystery of love
refrain

 

 


Want you so badly

sunshine after rainfall
that's what you are to me
you're pretty much of everything
i ever thought i could need
want you so badly
maybe i want you right now
green tree in the desert
an island in the sea
yeah you're like a medicine
for my itchy disease
refrain
you're a door to the dining room
and i'm weaker than you
smoking pot in the evening sun
making everything groove
refrain

 

 

Lilī Kitty

 

My lilī kitty is home

My lilī kitty is irreclaimable

My lilī kitty is home

My lilī kitty is irreplaceable

Are you happy when you smile

Or a product of your style

Are you acting are you real

I wanna try to break your seal

I wanna skip with you my dear

Nothing but peace would reappear

I wanna recreate our love with a little help from the man above

You made me open up my eyes

Thank you very much for all your lies

Never again Iīll try to feed a kitty like you

My lilī kitty, my lilī kitty, my lilī kitty

 

 

Where I belong

 

Itīs kinda weird and nonsense

Itīs keeping me on defense

It fells like indifference

And it comes and comes again

I know we shall overcome

I know he gave his only son

But I look up and see the sun

So whatīs it all about

I donīt know where I belong

Does anybody know

Itīs making me feel so tired

Kinda cool and uninspired

Itīs coming fast along the wire

This feelingīs keeping me down

I donīt believe the rich west

Has really found out what is best

Cause money really canīt care us

But where else should I live?

Refrain

Itīs keeping me home when I should be gone

Interferes with everything that need be done

Feel like itīs over when itīs just begun

Feet stuck in the mud when I wanna run

But if you hug me darling

Like I hug you darling

Still thereīs nothing changing

But it donīt matter anymote

Refrain

 

 

Sleepwalkers

 

One Stepp from where we fall

So many miles away

Really doesnīt matter after all

Still eat all we can bite

Still bleed to watch a fight

Really doesnīt matter after all

We still go on and play these songs

The week befor we all knew more

Like we could backdate the end of the world

Sleepwalkers donīt panic

Itīs just the final scene we play

Scenepainters donīt panic

Your colors wonīt dry till the morning sun

One step too far weīve gone

Still many miles away

Really doesnīt matter who falls first

Ainīt scared of holes in heads

Play war with their own pets

Who is gonna kill the world today

We still give autographs for free

Wes till deport the ones we hate

The common insight seems a bit too late

Refrain

Sleepwalkers wake up

 

 

 

I'm a lover

she's underneath the limit of contemporary being
but doesn't fit the model of a skinny modeī queen
she'll never make the cover of a fashion magazine
but she got all she'll ever need if you know
what i mean
yeah, i wanna see her again
yeah, i wanna meet her again
yeah, i wanna see her again
but i don't wanna be her friend
i'm a lover
walking on the rail of a 20 story bridge
she doesn't have a care walking there on the edge
people start screaming when she jumps
into the river
at first i wanna follow but the thought
gave me a shiver
refrain
i don't know if i'm ever gonna see her again
but just in case she reappears i've
learned to swim
i don't waste a minute stripping down to my skin
i kiss the ground, shake it off, and man
i'm jumping in
refrain

 

 

Popstar

 

No shoes a shirt, like a rag - a little luck in my bag

Neither money left or a jo  - Iīm off the track of pop

Donīt keep on begging for a better time

Donīt keep on waiting for a better sign

I canīt deny the feelings for my band

It doesnīt matter if you make a stand

Another mission your decision

I donīt wanna be the one who let us down

Anther lover undercover looking for the one

Who loves you as a star

I promise if you will be less happy without me

Donīt have a house high on a hill – maybe someday  I will

Consequencial reading from above – youīre running outta love

Donīt keep on begging for a better time

Donīt keep on waiting for a better sign

I canīt deny the feelings for my band

It doesnīt matter if you make a stand

Refrain

Donīt wanna end as an unfamous band – already round the bend

Iīd rather be in a famous band – until my living end

I wanna play my drums in africa

Smoke a big cigar from havana

Need a garage and a bigger car

All because of being a popstar

Refrain

 

 

Neck

i'm turning my head around and around
i'm turning my head around and around
so many girls and they all could be found
so many girls and they all could be found
my neck's already much too long
my neck's already much too long
my neck's already much too long
it looks as stupid as this song
so what the hell is going on?
everybody's turning his head, 'cause my neck is so long
i think i gotta go to the medicine-man
i think i'll take a flight 'cause i'm not Peter Pan
yes now i am in the aeoroplane
we're flying very high, higher than the rain
but what is this? It's a stewardess!
she's passing by in a sexy dress
and i'm turning my head around and around
and i'm turning my head around and around
and i'm turning my head around and around
and i'm turning my head around and around
my neck's already much too long
my neck's already much too long
my neck's already much too long
it looks as stupid as this song

 

 

What remains

 

My blue heart has treated so bad

For a time I thought about getting mad

Maybe Iīm a menace to every honest lad

But I wonīt let any bastard pass my door

No more no more no

People came around smelling the cash

They came as friends with a money – fuckerflash

Unaware of my famous backlash

But in the back of my head I donīt forget

Donīt forget donīt forget no

When friends and foes are the samedi then somethingīs wrong and I

Know quite well what remains

Just my band

Ainīt it funny to see all these friends

Guys I like with mad lament for amends

Do they think our empty wallets were pretence

Or do we look like we are noble decent

Nobel nobel no

refrain
