50 Sets Of Lyrics (2)
Sometimes my act was so low I’d ask myself if it was me Or if it was an alien in disguise Always ready to demonise The little devil in my head He said I was not bad But the little angel to the left He said, of life, you are bereft Circus clowns would've been jealous My behaviour, a real menace Less to society, more to myself Time to store it on a shelf It's obvious, change is a must I don't think of it in disgust Just happy that very soon I'll finally land on the moon Accomplish my mission Turn off this crazy ignition 27) ONLY LOSERS FALL IN LOVE I don't want to be alone I want my female clone Someone who would understand Not be all about demand Is it possible? Is it real? Or science fiction invading my head? Whatever the deal is I don't want to feel dead They say losers fall in love The cool ones win relaxed Reality seems so strange Is it my destiny to be axed? Winning, losing, a lot of blame But it's much more than a game Because of such words They should feel shame The online ad gives me no hope In my hour of need An act of desperation The search is on for liberation They say losers fall in love The cool ones win relaxed Reality seems so strange Is it my destiny to be axed? Speed dating, are people crazy? Has technology made them lazy? Where is the old fashion? Class and style? This is pure miscommunication In the age of globalisation 28) JUST A DREAM Fingers caressing my hair The scent made me crazy Silky skin feeling so unreal Like a woman from another planet Then I woke up And felt it really happened What if it really did? Did supernatural pay me a visit? The dream so vivid Or should I say lucid? Was it an out-of-body experience Something I never believed in If aliens don't exist Why does the dream persist? If supernatural is not real What is this that I feel? Nobody would believe me Except for a few I will keep quiet Enjoy this dream, for now It's happening more often We make love in the dream When I wake up I see a little beam If aliens don't exist Why does the dream persist? If supernatural is not real What is that I feel? A beam of light Towards the sky Please come back tonight To be forever, you and I 29) YOU CHOSE INFIDELITY There's nothing you can do I don't want to see you No need to apologise You’ve destroyed everything Everything we ever built Everything we planned to do It's too late now I'll find a way out somehow I don't want to know Why you did it What good would it do? Who to blame who? We almost built a castle But now the foundation is gone I don't care, suffer alone Pay for the mistake For your stupid deeds You chose infidelity Instead of sowing seeds The footsteps in the hall I hope it's not you Silence is gold, be bold Don't say a word Cat and mouse, not my world I don't want to know Why you did it What good would it do? Who to blame who? We almost built a castle But now the foundation is gone I don't care, suffer alone Daylight saving time My partner in crime In crime to forget your face Enjoying the sun Up my sleeve an ace 30) TO CALL IS ABSURD My all, says Mariah Carey My fall, all I can think of Stupid I was so To ever let you go Hoping for your comeback No, it's a waste of time A terrible mistake That I don't want anyone to make Sweet is the very thought of you On the beach, in the sun Now it's my history I wrote a pathetic story Your herbal perfume And the stunning costume More than foolish was of me To think you didn't want us to be To call is absurd So is knocking on your door To tell a friend? The rumour would finally end Sweet is the very thought of you On the beach, in the sun Now it's my history I wrote a pathetic story I'm driving through the streets Prostitutes on the pavement Am I going to dement? To quench my instinct thirst With one of them It would do no good Her face and body Would be yours in my mind Me, such a fool, so blind 31) I STILL SMELL ROSEMARY I still smell rosemary The meal, what a feast Friends galore And just one whore Defamation is not who I am I apologise for the terrible word The word that I mentioned I should be sanctioned The friends ate and sang We sat by the sea I stared at the whore From her I wanted more I didn't mind her profession Just hoping to feel passion Not as a client but as a fool To change her life, so cruel She smiled at me Usual part of her act Making money after dinner With yet another sinner Probably a married man With no conscience, no shame But I was not there to blame From her I wanted the same I didn't mind her profession Just hoping to feel passion Not as a client but as a fool To change her life, so cruel I opened the bedroom door And she wasn't there Probably with someone else Who didn't even care I never met her again Something I didn't hope for Mixed feelings of sorrow And relief in my heart But I was still hoping She'd have a fresh start 32) A REAL PRIZE They say she is a real prize How dare they be so shallow She's not an object of desire Nor supposedly the hottest fire Things have changed Even old people succumb to instinct All these people are deranged Lack of grace, extinct They tell me she isn’t mine A beautiful woman Always other man's Jealousy, malice, envy and fear To me it's all very clear If you rise and achieve success Jealousy follows in excess If you seduce a gorgeous woman You hear terrible things Almost inhuman That is the nature of many men Little can be done about that Like a swarm of scary beings They try to destroy your feelings They tell me she isn’t mine A beautiful woman Always other man's Jealousy, malice, envy and fear To me it's all very clear Isolation is a partial cure Yet effective I must say People will be people But who cares at the end of the day All that I want is next to me Her inner beauty is what matters For outer beauty is skin deep You don't see it in your sleep 33) CARAVAN OF FOOLS Always a book guy Other things I did try Still the appeal of words Sunbathes my vocal cords Dork, strange, so many words To express ignorance and hate At first I suffered, full of scare Later I knew better not to care Caravan of fools Always around me They don’t know their direction Primal is their satisfaction To explain to them where to go I know, it would be another blow So I pass the opportunity For the lack of their clarity I know that time will tell Who will ring the divine bell The bell of wisdom so beautiful Many don’t even know So why bother directing such people If they want to be sheeple? Caravan of fools Always around me They don’t know their direction Primal is their satisfaction To explain to them where to go I know, it would be another blow It's cruel to call people sheeple But no mercy is directed at me I know that gentle I will not be Because people sheeple shouldn't be 34) THE KING'S FALL To marry the next of kin Wasn't it the greatest sin? But the king ignored the issue The empire was about to fall The rebels destroyed the wall The king's arrogance was wounded The events took him by surprise Never in his wildest dreams Did he see people rise Terrible noise not far from the castle Soldiers retreating, hardly breathing Hundreds of years of power and fame But all empires fall the same The king didn't cry Didn't even try Stranger to him was empathy When the heads rolled He wouldn't even blink How awful to see the ship sink He climbed to the top Saw the rebels in the distance Noise, fire, what to do? Oh, poor king, is the next one you? I want to rob the mob The king would say The mob was coming With life the king would pay The king didn't cry Didn't even try Stranger to him was empathy When the heads rolled He wouldn't even blink How awful to see the ship sink The leader of the rebels screamed People, look! The king is on the rook! But they had no chance To catch him alive The king had to dive There was no „Titanic“ reference at the time Neither “Lusitania” Nor the Gulf of Tonkin That awaited him And the kin 35) YOUR FAMOUS WHIM Without you I've already been No surprise, your famous whim I should hope you're not with him But this time it is different The composer will be me The singer whimsical you If you disagree Good for me I will be free I've spent years Looking for your wavelength Losing all my strength Your behaviour Is a mystery to me And that you can’t see If you don't like what I mean Maybe some other man, my ex-queen Will like when you make a scene Trying is a waste of time I am never good enough Sometimes tough, usually rough But it makes no sense It is your usual dance (US English) Now you say the fault is mine My freedom is about to shine Do what you do Say what you want I won't say don't I don't care any more No need for such a bore Life is short I keep telling myself And now you disagree So I am finally free Trying is a waste of time I am never good enough Sometimes tough, usually rough But it makes no sense It is your usual dance (US English) 36) ANARCHY IN THE MONARCHY There was anarchy in the monarchy People were angry and hungry The queen didn’t care Convinced that people didn’t dare How could she have been so blind Thinking things didn’t apply to her? Obsessed with her clothes and fur This might be the tipping point The point of no return To her it wasn’t a concern Anarchy in the monarchy It was about time Arrogance against impatience Similar in many nations Violence in the streets Many wounded and dead The queen threw parties instead Was it madness, lack of reason? Nobody could tell The queen was headed Further from Heaven Closer to Hell Anarchy in the monarchy It was about time Arrogance against impatience Similar in many nations People said „off with their heads“ The queen still didn't care To have such a leader Wasn't even so rare But indifference and arrogance Did not last for long And finally the people Started singing the song The queen's head high on the wall An example to future leaders A scary scene, terrible deed Nothing lasts forever, indeed 37) MEN ARE PIGS Men are pigs Many women say A popular phrase In global haze Communicate? Less important than fornicate Yet men are still pigs And women wear masks Hiding behind the invisible veil So scared they will fail Religious confusion A far cry from harmonic diffusion People don't talk any more Physical contact, just another chore Then why all the blame? Why the fear of shame? If it's just a chore Who cares any more? But the masks are still on Nobody wants to concede Global insanity Of blame and shame A very unnatural game So how can they claim That men are pigs When they still wear wigs? Religious confusion A far cry from harmonic diffusion People don't talk any more Physical contact, just another chore It's easier to wear a mask Even consider chore a task Not to tell it like it is Behave like a robot Or worse, like a web bot So much rage in this age Confusion destroying fusion Let them think who I am Finally, I don't give a damn 38) THE SWAN SCULPTURE I saw a big swan sculpture In front of a barbershop I couldn't believe my eyes Or call it a surprise Surprise was a mild word For this strange swan The following day I wanted to see If it would be gone Astonished was a better word The swan was still there I entered the shop To meet the owner A very sweet man His name was Stan Oh, beautiful swan In such a strange place No water, no lake Just concrete and Stan's rake I asked Stan why the swan He said his wife was gone Gone where angels would sing Where God was the only king Emptiness in his voice Mentioning her Yet the swan stared at us Saying: Stan, crying no mas Oh, beautiful swan In such a strange place No water, no lake Just concrete and Stan's rake The swan didn't mind the surroundings All he cared about was Stan What a beautiful swan And what a noble man 39) HE WENT ABROAD To avoid hardship He went abroad My best friend With his country, disappointed I warned him not to rush Life was hard everywhere It was just a few Who enjoyed without you It was not about the country Or religion or fate But all about circumstances And necessary imposed dances He called me one day Crying on the phone Sadness in his voice No reason to rejoice Immigrant's life, so hard He wasn't ready for hardship Then one day he told me He'd try a job on a ship I knew it’d be even worse But he wouldn't listen He yearned for a better future That wasn't going to happen But he was ready to dare The man was stranger to scare He called me one day Crying on the phone Sadness in his voice No reason to rejoice A decade later He came back home No trace of once a happy man Which he denied vehemently But admitted silently Things at home weren’t much better But here he had friends and family He had a chance of living happily Finally, finally… 40) FIND ME A REASON Find me a reason Not to commit treason I'm not happy with our marriage And never have been Everybody has seen But you thought It was a social obligation Mother, a married wife Guaranteed, a happy life. The marriage is a bore I couldn't agree more I don't care What society demands They are the ones Who need reprimands Born with religion, defined And a proud nationality No free thinking A slave to society No space for individuality Not even for variety I never wanted such a life And now I have such a wife No, darling, I won't listen to you Or do what you want me to You've been brainwashed How could you know that? People like you Society's best bet It's not even about treason Just let me fly This society conformed life Will make me die Born with religion, defined And proud nationality No free thinking A slave to society No space for individuality Not even for variety I'm not a pervert or a freak If you don't understand that I’m an individual willing to live Then I have nothing to give So many zombies around me If TV says, it must be true They live thinking they’re free But they will never be me Nor anyone else Who wants to think The others? Let them sink 41) THE BOY DENIED There was a boy who Preferred to deny But alone in his room All he did was cry What was this boy’s problem Was it university? A move to another city? I think it was not Because once he was caught In the dark with another boy To whom he was just a toy The boy was afraid of being gay He tried to suppress the urge His parents would forget him Other people would beat him His fault he thought it was Never thinking of why and because His life was miserable Confusing, urge unbearable But the fear was so immense And the boy was always tense When he would be free He did not know He thought: How had I fallen so low? The boy was afraid of being gay He tried to suppress the urge His parents would forget him Other people would beat him His fault he thought it was Never thinking of why and because Then something changed He wasn’t so afraid any more Didn’t know the reason why Just knew it was time to try Another boy he sought Forgot the suicide thought He wanted to be who he was He finally knew why and because 42) COLD CASE Was it him? Was it her? A dead child in the dark It was in the seventies Forty years later The killer is on the loose The police don't even dare The people created a legend Some still care This cold case, so unusual Both simple and difficult A child in the park and a killer Not exactly a real thriller The child killed in the park The police, still in the dark Who knows if The killer's still alive Maybe he passes by The police every day And lives in the bay There was a rumour that The killer was from the police They said they couldn’t Solve the case Said it with a straight face This cold case, so unusual Both simple and difficult A child in the park and a killer Not exactly a real thriller Do the police hide the truth? Who knows? Maybe they don't care that The child received many blows Sad is this story In which there is no glory The parents have no peace No respect for the police 43) WE STOOD BY THE THEATRE After school we stood by the theatre Watching the beautiful actresses pass by Sometimes they blew us kisses Our happiness was never-ending They were so gracious, so unique Sometimes they waved to my clique Then I fell in love It felt so right But in my heart I knew A boy could only hope For waves a few We felt so good Life seemed grandiose We were in the mood I wanted to give her a rose But this boy had no courage For he was scared That she would make fun of him He never dared We stood by the theatre Hoping that one day We would be With someone like them In the meantime We dreamt of the actresses Right there, right then. But this boy had no courage For he was scare That she would make fun of him He never dared 44) THE WRITER’S BLOCK Inspiration comes and goes Dealing gifts and blows One day it flows like a river It can even last longer And make a writer stronger Long hours, so much to write Words pouring out of one’s mind Inspiration can be so kind Not enough paper or ink For writers in the past Then they turned to computers To make writing fast Then something happens The vibrations become low Writing is so, so slow Precise as a Swiss clock God, not another writer’s block Writer’s block, why are you here? I need precious words, to me dear There isn’t enough time I need to break down this wall No mercy, the deadline is waiting Anxious for words I’m anticipating Why does this happen Nobody can tell Inspiration is a strange beast When it’s not a writer’s feast To call my editor? Ask for more days? Who can guarantee I’ll like what he says? Praying doesn’t help I should at the sun stare Waiting for words, so rare Frustration is in the room I admit, it happened before Words, I need you more Writer’s block, why are you here? I need precious words, to me dear There isn’t enough time I need to break down this wall No mercy, the deadline is waiting Anxious for words…I’m anticipating Finally, a brick from the wall falls Instantly, inspiration calls Beautiful words in my head The fingers, not fast enough As if they were scared I am not afraid of The deadline any more I am ready to give more 45) KING OF WHOSE CASTLE? You said you had a castle And needed a king Your words were beautiful And I was hopeful Hopeful that the king Would be me With the beautiful queen For everyone to see It sounded too good to be true But I chose to believe And never let you leave One day I was invited to the castle The queen opened the door She said: Come in, I was waiting for you Coffee and food on the table It was all so true A few weeks later I became suspicious Maybe a little malicious The king’s pride was immense But what kind of king was I So afraid that she’d make me cry? King of whose castle I asked the queen Not knowing where she’d been Maybe with another man For a few weeks No call, not even hi And she didn’t reply She gave me no answer Just told me I was possessive Harsh words, even obsessive No mention of the castle Sudden cold, distance And unexpected arrogance Whose fault it was I didn’t know But the would be king Was a one time thing King of whose castle I asked the queen Not knowing where she’d been Maybe with another man For a few weeks No call, not even Hi And she didn’t reply No more castle, no more king Was this even a fling? We were not meant To be a monarchy The king and the castle Another story with no glory 46) NOT IN MY CASE Another day The same story Maybe somewhere else Not in my case Twenty years ago Life was so good Streets crowded with people Looking for fun Staying up until the sun Invitation to parties Even from the people I didn’t know We always went with the flow. I never refused to go Celebration was in the air Good music, even better food Never thought of it as rare Always in the good mood Not in my case It sounds so exclusive But I swear I am right Now people only fight Yesterday’s future is today And I hate what they say My friends are married Working all day long They listened to society’s reason And ended up in its prison We grew up, I was stubborn Always asking questions My friends were different And became very silent No more time for fun They thought they were done Done with the life of pleasure Not having time for leisure Children, wife, money, bills Bad heart, ulcer, lots of pills People say I have to change That nobody can defy society Which loves to kill variety It’s hard for me And much harder for them But I have fewer worries And more memories Memoirs of the beautiful days That almost everyone forgot Those who are robots In the factory called society With the intention of killing variety Not in my case It sounds so exclusive But I swear I am right Now people only fight Yesterday’s future is today And I hate what they say Society likes human robots People like me they call cohorts I will never give up Without my friends I know it will be tough But their life is So unnecessarily rough I have nothing to lose Still have an option to choose Life is my choice I want to rejoice Others do not dare Why do I still care? 47) SHE WORKED IN A PHARMACY I was just a customer On the bill another number The girl in the pharmacy Was beautiful and friendly The things she would say Would make my day Sometimes we chatted When the lack of customers permitted I was much older Just wanted to talk Not thinking she’d ever Want to go for a walk One night around eight It was time to close the shop I was about to leave She asked me to stop I’d like some coffee If you don’t mind Her words, a surprise A big spark in my eyes She worked in a pharmacy Sometimes we would talk But then there was a change She was full of rage I never thought she’d approve Of someone my age We drank coffee Went for a walk Yes, I liked her a lot I realised I had a shot I was afraid It wouldn’t last And acted as a friend Hoping it would never end But one night I entered the shop And she told me to stop She had to lock the door Do inside something more She worked in a pharmacy Sometimes we would talk But then there was a change She was full of rage I never thought she would approve Of someone my age So I left the pharmacy And I wasn’t surprised This young woman Didn’t want a friend And I didn’t want an end I was a coward The girl so straightforward Now I don’t have her as a friend All I have is the end 48 EVERENDING STORY I saw writing on the wall “I still love you, forgive me” I wish she had said those words Flying like beautiful birds The writing haunted me Why wasn’t it my reality? I kept coming every day Hoping those words she’d say The very wall was in an alley And there were many shops The owners found me strange Some things never did change It wasn’t strange to long for The words of forgiveness But these people didn’t know that All they wanted was to chat The only words in my mind They were on the wall, signed Hope was a useful thing To make me feel wanted But sanity required reality No permission for the lack of clarity With my life I had to go on Hoping that someone would remove The writing from the wall I didn’t want to see it any more I didn’t need an encore It wasn’t strange to long for The words of forgiveness But these people didn’t know that All they wanted was to chat The only words in my mind They were on the wall, signed Painful days never seemed to cease And the writing was still on the wall Suddenly it seemed like a wake up call It was time to abandon hope With a new life I had to cope And there it was, the same wall But the writing was gone And with it the memory of her The writing was gone And a new me was born 49 APOCALYPSE OR ECLIPSE Some people have gone mad They say it’s the end of the world Two Thousand and Twelve Many buy food to shelve The Poles will shift Solar flares will kill us all Building bunkers underground For them the only thing sound The media promotes chaos Nothing new there And they even swear Swear that it is all the truth I don’t buy it, I’m a good sleuth Apocalypse or eclipse? Apocalypse of the world? Eclipse of the human mind? What a disaster Some of the human kind So much panic, so much fear Do I have to be here? Can I sleep through 2012? Even through 2013? Not to watch this crazy scene What a pack of lies But many people don’t have eyes Fear is no stranger to marketing Makes you buy the useless thing Judgment day, many say They just want to survive And many are now religious But used to be sacrilegious Many were sinners Now want to be winners Save me God from chaos And surrounding pathos As for my preparation This is my recommendation Don’t read the newspapers Turn off the radio and TV And be finally free Apocalypse or eclipse? Apocalypse of the world? Eclipse of the human mind? What a disaster Some of the human kind So much panic, so much fear Do I have to be here? Can I sleep through 2012? Even through 2013? Not to watch this crazy scene 50) YOU CAN NEVER BE SURE When I was growing up People didn’t pay attention to me Another kid, poor and weak For some malicious ones, a freak I loved football, trained hard The coach loved it, made me smile The malicious ones didn’t care Life was so unfair Then we won the local cup People started paying attention Around me girls and friends Who were they? I didn’t know them Probably ready for some scam Today I’m a famous star Playing football in a big club They want me in every pub I never now who’s There because of me And who just wants money Before nobody looked at me Now they’re all friends, briefly People want to take advantage Sudden friendship, fling, Utterly disgusting acting Tomorrow if I lose Money and fame They will not even Want to hear my name Materialism is their ism Their only goal in life I’ll be better off alone I know they’ll never call Today I’m a famous star Playing football in a big club They want me in every pub I never now who’s There because of me And who just wants money I know I’m right No need to doubt myself To endure this kind of circus I’m not the first or the last They all make me aghast
