prom queen ►

you might be the prom queen but my friends do have gasoline
we'll set you on fire if you won't play along
you might be a problem, you might be a problem in the long shot

take a lucky shot and I'll shoot you
no matter how it goes I could have done it
so bad, I'm so bad

you might be the prom queen but my friends do have gasoline
we'll set you on fire if you won't play along
you might be a ballroom dancer, you might look like Prancer
but I don't believe in Santa Claus
I don't believe in the good cause
I don't believe in Jaws
I don't believe in Steven Spielberg
I don't believe in him
I don't believe in Hollywood
I don't believe in the music industry
I don't believe in MTV
they can all go fuck themselves

hearts ►

they've made it harder now honey, I know
from the stories they tell
but we can make it baby
and you are driving me crazy with your perfume

and once in a while you're pulling my leg, I assume
jay-walking
and now the streets are bare in the open air

she's calling me back and she was heaven-sent

call that a sacred love
and that was not enough for her
it's gotta hurt badly
it's gotta hurt apparently

yes, call that a sacred love
we've got evidence to show you that it is enough
yeah, it's enough

and indeed the fossil record shows them in a tight embrace
(and) my next record will show you that I think that you're amazing

this empathy is in the heart of every man
that has held your hand
is the poetic vision of life which I held back then
but they should all feel that empathy

when you hear me singing backwards
oh, they've already gave the cards
and she kept the hearts
I've lost again

rain (girl) ►

you wake up next to me and sigh
'cause it's another day
I feel like everyone is feeling great
it's so unreal
to be here with you

I close my eyes and you roll over
away from me
for so long I made coffee and felt great when I wrote a song for you

she pulls over the sheets and vanishes
I knew that she would vanish

rain comes down in sheets
and I wanted to hide
the rain comes down in sheets
cleansing the heat

when I wake up I know you're with me

the shattered morning world ►

I love to throw a boomerang
'cause it always comes back
you are like a golfball
in the jaws of a crocodile

to you I am a stranger
a clear and present danger
pull yourself together
you a stormy weather, a breeze

I find my solace in the comforting words
that were left unspoken in the previous verse

and they were like 'I love you'
you really make me feel good
I know you have a good time
on the green it's so fine

with the sun up high like smoking pod
back in Eden, get along with God
knowing you is really great
like climbing over heaven's gate

and you are the real one

some of us will make it back home in one piece
if she won't shoot you apart
and my heart went back, beating in tune
and now sounds fill the emptiness in the room

go back young boy!
to your room
or even further
return to her womb

the sun is there on solstice
and eveyone was alone in this
I see you in a daydream
I read your mind like a magazine

please be here ►

have you seen me lately?
I didn't know what to say to you
I wish you were here 'though

can't you be here 'though?
in front of you I am

can you see that now?
here I am
in front of you I stand

come in closer

come by

be here
please be here
please can you be here
be here
'cause I need you to
be here
please be here

blind alley one-way path ►

where will be my girl tonight?
will she decide if I am still in her plans?
what is my chance to be with her?
will it hurt after this?
I don't know what I miss

and you just strode along
taking the path as it is:
a one-way path

and now we see each other
like sister, like brother
and I thought that we were friends
and I think I still have a chance to be in your arms
whenever it is cold I will be warm

together in our sleep
together we sink in the deep
and I will always remember our days together
the times when we had fun
the times when I looked into the sun
into the sun
blinding my eyes

and I threw the dice on the table
and I shuffled cards
and I broke my heart, myself

king of hearts, cannonball ►

stepped in the hall
with a heart like a cannonball
when everything deludes me
I have my back against the wall
after all, you are a machine

all these actors
they never begone
when I warm up in the sun
I get cold when you are gone
and I love you, love you, love you

breeze into a storm
you're gone after all
and me...
I have existential pain

feels like love laid bare on the battlefield
downtrodden by the entire batallion

everything's a mess
my loved one's playing chess
with my king off the board
king of hearts, cannonball
and it's fired, my love

queen of hearts ►

well, haven't you heard?
I'm sure about it since you left
well I was on the right side
but you left
there are no unspoken words left

I should always say: 'listen to your own heart'
I always said to myself: 'listen to your own heart'

well, haven't you seen me passing by your house?
there I have seen your future spouse

but please listen to your heart
please draw the queen of hearts
please

wanna be around you ►

no, no, that's really good
understood, understood
no, no, you're really well
I'm in hell, I'm in hell

no, no, that's really great
really great, really great
you demonstrate that evil has its way

even through a girl's mind, even through a girl's mind
you told me that you just did kill time
now you did kill me and my
creativity

we'll recollect
our own impressions
we'll do confessions every day
we pray to God every day

no, I just..
wanna be around you
every day

no, I just..
wanna see you everyday
and I have a thought about it

here I am ►

so here I stand
and I don't know
who the fuck I am

can you tell me please and tell me please 'cause
just let me be
let me be

here I am

this house of cards ►

you entice me to jump from the roof
from this house that we built on love that we knew
and we knew that this love really had no ground
its shaky foundation was bound to fall down

and I really thought that you would care
and I really thought that this man was out of your head
and I really thought that we were true close friends
in the end I don't know

you told me practically nothing
you just gave me a glimpse of something
and 'you're so of good heart' 

I jump down and I will feel weightless
what I had on my shoulders falls down in the trash
and you felt for me you have to confess
now I wanna lay down and rest

but with impunity you will never leave
'cause the dagger in my heart has got your fingerpints all over it
and in the recollection of everybody you really liked me
and I'm so tired, I'm so desperate 

you're really cool ►

you're really cool like
some like it hot, right?
we act like parasites
sucking out each other's lives
and that's a bitch

you're really cool like
it's too hard to break the ice
just look at the stars tonight
the clouds are before your eyes
just look at the sun
you're my favourite one
who stepped on my heart

everytime we talked a blue streak
I got weaker and now I need you so bad

every single day I long for the breeze
but the winter storm has made our passion freeze
and I repeat it:

you're really cool like
how you make a man cry
I want you back in my life
just let our hearts collide
just take your lover's side
but first decide
which man is your lover 

caged lovebird ►

no strings attached
this is you at your best
you always speak of unconditional love

I should have gone
when you said you would miss me too

the price tag is a broken heart
and you are a mystery too

there are things I said
you should have listened to me instead of your family
'cause they don't know you

you're imprisoned by the native man
you are his property
is this protective custody and for what?

wake me up, cold water
and tell me is this real?
I for one feel like the crucified Son

please take the vows and love the one you love
the one you love

Superman wagers his coat upon it
to listen to his heart
albeit a broken one
or a world falling apart

Daniel waves and poles on ►

you tune in later and call your friends
I'm broke

we'll be hangin' out, no further ado
we fuck, take LSD

call your sister, let her take off her clothes
I'm paranoid, she was a KGB

and Pamela turns back on the radio
she turns me on, The Doorman

the neighbourhood smells like gasoline
we've gotta kill them all, shoot them in the doorway
and: "End"

today I decided I will let you go and pass my greetings to you
a solemn gesture

please do take your time
to pack your bags and find your home
who is your friend?
even with him you are alone
know that the record is still going strong
I'm talkin' about fossils, you still get me wrong
and I am an gentleman but I won't play along
you have your boyfriend and I am alone

is it disease, the lovesick in me?
you are the one and it's killing me

survivor guilt ►

on behalf of my mother
son please, go away
I saved the day after tomorrow
but she wouldn't stay
not for longer
not for just one minute

on behalf of my sister
please girl, go away
I planted the seed
and the tree blew the storm away
or the storm blew the tree away

we are clowns in the constellation
we deprive ourselves of entertainment
in rejection

on behalf of my father
cut down the tree
and bury me in the sea
throw my ashes in the oceans

and they told her to leave
and they called her names, called her a thief
not everyone has planned 
his for his own luck
what the fuck

the cunt of Hanivers ►

Rainman, I always thought I was like Rainman
counting cards and gain them
although my hair is like Syd Barrett
I do not live with my mom

although I can be as slick as Ben Affleck
it disgusts me when I do
and J-Lo would dump me too
after I had her in my own Oral Office
am I still being nice?

the sinking ship signals Save-Our-Souls
we wanna know the insights/insides of Beyoncé Knowles
and MTV is really the place to be
for losing interest and getting a lobotomy
am I still doing great?

oh Jenny's sick
watch her lick
in Hollywood
she got booed
oh Jenny's sick

oh Jenny's sick
sucking dicks
in Hollywood
she got screwed

problem is that you're the elected Son
to whither away on a cross
three days to say the least
you will take the sins of mankind
and they will portray you as The Beast
and we all await Star Wars III 
and the webcam is in front of her pussy
and nobody's jerkin' off for free
am I still your pal or friend?

oh Jenny's sick
watch her lick
in Hollywood
she got booed

oh Jenny's sick
sucking dicks
in Hollywood
she got screwed

oh Jenny's ill
sign her will
left me nothing but her flu

oh Jenny's dead
she gave'em head
they slit her throat
when the seed was sown

oh Jenny's sick

just now you see her (.. can't call her)

everything in the garden was lovely ►

now that you and I are together
it should be like this
forever

when the storm keeps us in our house
we will set it on fire

you and I
will be
the last ones
who ate from the apple

while the war was waged ►

where were you
without a family?
without the one true love
we'd never had enough

who wants to make this decision
of making an incision
in his own heart?

and at least you should
try to save this heart
albeit in a plastic bag with ice
we've gotta save this heart

this dwindling affair
never did you harm
a snake in the Garden
a snake with charm
who dares to say I'm wrong

xxx I love you ►

hold me tight girl
I don't wanna be your enemy 'cause I love you

I'm not as tough as your boyfriend
but I speak from my heart
albeit a broken one

how can I ever win your heart?
I feel so locked out
then I'm The Doorman, how cynical

I care for you girl
you are close to my heart
this is everything that matters
you know this is love
