Everyone Dancing
Someone delivered a message so humble
It's hard to believe it made our world tumble
It said 'The times they are a-changing
Out with the old and the aging
However sad, dear God is dead
The fear of the devil is yesterday´s fad!'
Lights sweep across the room
All hearts go boom boom boom
This evil little tune
Has everyone dancing
There is no stopping now
Mindblowing to see just how
The world is spinning 'round
With everyone dancing
We got sold on our weakness
Without knowing we were the business
Now all the damage is done
Dignity completely gone
Sold our souls 'cos we needed a fix
Now we're sailing across the river Styx
Lights sweep across the room
All hearts go boom boom boom
This evil little tune
Has everyone dancing
There is no stopping now
Mindblowing to see just how
The world is spinning !round
With everyone dancing
Damned
I packed my bags this morning
Without a word of warning
The cold of winter in my heart
As I walk away from you
The hardest thing I'll ever do
A world of memories falls apart
Forever and a day
I prayed for the answer
I dreamed of the light
A beautiful solution to make things right
But I´m damned if I stay here
I´m damned if I run away
And If you ever tried to see what
I showed you or hear what I say
I never would left you asleep where you lay
But I´m damned if I stay here
I´m damned if I run away
I know it was not easy
I know you tried to please me
I know you´re asking yourself : why ?
And maybe the problem's in me
I have no right to be happy
Always have to say goodbye
Forever and a day
I prayed for the answer
I dreamed of the light
A beautiful solution to make things right
But I´m damned if I stay here
I´m damned if I run away
And If you ever tried to see what
I showed you or hear what I say
I never would left you asleep where you lay
But I´m damned if I stay here
I´m damned if I run away
And now that my life is turning
Bridges burning ! Forgive me!
And one day we´ll all be older
Four-leaf clover
But now it's over !
I prayed for the answer
I dreamed of the light
A beautiful solution to make things right
But I'm damned if I stay here
I'm damned if I run away
And If you ever tried to see what
I showed you or hear what I say
I never would left you asleep where you lay
But I'm damned if I stay here
I'm damned if I run away
I'm damned if I stay here
I'm damned if I run away...
Vertigo
Not my choice to be here
I simply heard the call
Giving you a chance
For some sick romance
To take me in free fall
I tried in vain
To kill the pain
The spasm in the vein
Driving me insame
Vertigo
Watch me go
Down with the sickness
That's none of your business
Vertigo
High and low
Fighting the demon
What a nightmare to dream on
There's nothing I could do now
I can get no cure
My only remedy's
To face the enemy
Your powers to allure
Walking down your street
That's no mean feat
This life that you lead
What a life of deceit
Vertigo
Watch me go
Down with the sickness
That's none of your business
Vertigo
High and low
Fighting the demon
What a nightmare to dream on
Down with the sickness
That's none of your business
Fighting the demon
Of you
In me
What The Hell
Didn't seem much
To get all worked up about
Something I said
Made us scream and shout
We've been here before
Wasn't such a big deal then
You forgave me
Thought you'd forgive again
But this time around
It seems You've made a stnd
I'm putting my foot down
On shifting sand
It's a situation
I'm not used to
Watching your front door
Is what I've been reduced to
Fame and fortune
Doesn't come that easily
You're the one who said
Enjoy it while You're free
Breathe in the air
The lights, the smoke, the band
The thrill of the audience
Eating from my outstretched hand
But lately I have to say
The juices haven't flowed
The needle's on empty
The car has left the road
The source of my aura
Was the faith I had in you
Now I just wonder
How on earth I continue
The people' number one
But what the hell for?
A nation's favourite son
But what the hell for?
I exercise my power
But what the hell for?
I've reached the final hour
But what the hell for?
Three whole weeks
Guess I have to face the fact
Hope has gone
Of her ever coming back
There's just two immortal lines
I'm thinking of
You love the thing you kill
And you kill the thing you love
Striving, driving
Sweeping all before me
So people I think that matter
Just can't ignore me
Never let go
No compromises
Now who can deny
Life's full of surprises
The people's number one
But what the hell for?
A nation's favourite son
But what the hell for?
I exercise my power
But what the hell for?
I've reached the final hour
But what the hell for?
Rockstar
Like a strong-out junkie
On a desperation ride
You run with the pack now
Losing dignity and pride
You should stay sharp
'Cos the night is young
In the Parasites' Paradise
You gotta deal with the dealers
And sugar-coat your lies
Feathet and tar
Whiskey in your jar
A convertible car
A pretty face with a scar
How well you've got it made
You think you'll never fade
You're just a whining rockstar
Just a moaning rockstar
You're just a hot-shot rockstar
You're just a fucked-up rockstar
A rockstar
Big Daddy will help you out
Should you be in need
But could you ever satisfy
You ever growing greed?
You liked this lot but Now it's not
So much fun anymore
Up to the hilt with pain and guilt
As your wealth makes you a whore
After all is
Said and done
Now wasn't it fun?
Take the money and run
How well you've got it made
You thought you'd never fade
You're just a whining rockstar
Just a moaning rockstar
You're just a hot-shot rockstar
You're just a fucked-up rockstar
A rockstar
Money...money...money...money...
Where is the money?
Where is the motherfucking money?!?
Nanananananananananananana...
I put my money where my mouth is
If my life is in crisis I've got my disciples
I also thank my enemies
My brothers with the faithless kiss
The boys from Venus
The guys with no penis
Alternative press with the teeny-weenies
The way you try to kill my vibe
Just helps me keep the flame alive
Cynics and critics you'd better hit it
You've been all wrong
You'de better admit it
You black-magic mongers
Spiiting from corners
You know-nothing say-alls
On somebody's payroll
When destiny calls
The big curtain falls
It's hard not to see
You ain't got no balls
Feather and tar
Whiskey in your jar
A convertible car
A pretty face with a scar
How well you've got it made
You thought you'd never fade
You're just a whining rockstar
Just a moaning rockstar
You're just a hot-shot rockstar
You're just a fucked-up rockstar
A rockstar
The End Of Innocence
We came out in our thousand
On that revolutionary day
Each person a hero
As the system crumbled away
We made a promise
To be truthful and honest
No more would those liars carry the day
We proclaimed a new era of liberty
And an end to the years of tyranny
We shouted 'Down with corrupt ideology!
Let us reclaim our own identity!'
Nothing could stop us
Nothing at all
The power of love would conquer all
(The power of love would conquer all)
Who among us then would have thought it
With all our hearts and minds we'd have fought it
But in the end we can't deny that we bought it
The end of innocence comes to us all
The big bad enemy defeated
We strove to get along
But no longer was it so simple
Telling right from wrong
Broken friendships
Made us cruelly aware
Freedom is a serious affair
(Freedom is a serious affair)
A page of history was turning
Flames of hope within us burning
But in the end the liberty we were yearning
Was far too much for all our spirits to bear
Who among us then would have thought it
With all our hearts and minds we'd have fought it
But in the end we can't deny that we bought it
The end of innocence comes to us all
Perfect Love (Gone Wrong)
Two kissing doves on the banner above
The place's called The Perfect Love
Open 24-7
A bona fide mansion of man-made heaven
That's where I saw you
Go-go dance the whole night through
Naked truth, naked and true
Respecting no taboo
I know I should've known better
Maybe I said forever
But that was long ago
Money spent, time to go
We will never get along
Like that Frank Sinatra song
'Cos we have ourselves
A perfect love
Gone wrong
The whole wide world is a city of angels
A meeting point for perverted strangers
Grab life by the balls and pull
And consume until you're full
But the prices that you pay
For all the wicked games you play
Will almost surely make you say
'I be predator you be prey'
We all should've known better
All this was meant forever
But that was long ago
Life is spent, time to go
We will never get along
Like that Frank Sinatra song
'Cos we have ourselves
A perfect love
Gone wrong
Destiny
It isn´t always apparent
Which way the river flows
In its quiescent magnificence
There... stretching out
The surface seems to sleep
But the whirlpools pull you deep
You think you know where you're going
As you sail the sea of life
But waters of destiny carry you
There... stretching out
In a long unbroken line
To a fate entwined with mine
