Put the Heat On
03:29
|

I’ve seen the people bow their heads
To the man on top in his power suit
White-collar conservative feds
Don’t you dare take that forbidden fruit
Put the heat on
Put the heat on
Put the heat on
You choose your own demise
Can’t you choose what’s right
But the weather’s still pretty nice
Stay outdoors, stay outta sight
Put the heat on
Put the heat on
Put the heat on

Good Times
06:11
|

I got time baby, I got money too
But I can’t, spend it on you
I’ve been looking for a way, to let you know
That I’ve had enough, since a long long time ago
Well now baby
Don’t you wait for me
I said now baby
Good times, good times
Coming to me
Baby I’ve been on the road, and I’ve seen the show
And I just can’t, take no more
The sad truth is, that I’d rather keep on
Than to come back home, and find out your gone
Well now baby
Don’t you wait for me
I said now baby
Good times, good times
Coming to me
You’re always trying, trying to take control
But the good times are coming, I’m gonna let them roll
Take me some time off, ain’t gonna weep and moan
If you can’t beat the blues, join it and make it your own
Well now baby
Don’t you wait for me
I said now baby
Good times, good times
Coming to me

Bus Stop Wedding
05:35
|
|||
Just met you baby
But I can’t do by myself
Turn around slowly
I hope to see you standing there
Then I watched you from afar
Had me hypnotized, paralyzed
Sitting down, you sat across from me
Then I realized, we had a bus stop wedding
But then you gone and went
And I started wondering why
Why’d you do the things to me
That made me, made me cry
You returned the next day
But the feeling was gone
Now I know I had myself fooled
Believing that you, and me,
And the world, could think
That a failed bus stop wedding
Could be agony too

Let's Go Home
06:14
|

Baby, you look pale by the moonlight
And baby, this place ain’t really outta sight
Office ceiling and holes in the wall
Bland red carpeting, that says it all
Honey honey, let’s just go home
I know it’s been a riot
Honey honey, can’t take no more
Gotta go back where it’s quiet
Been at this party for nearly two days
And it all it all it all just seems like a haze
Man, I really need to take me a vacation
Gotta go, reach the next phase
Cause if I don't get outta here
Gonna lose my fucking mind
Honey honey, let’s just go home
I know it’s been a riot
Honey honey, can’t take no more
Gotta go back where it’s quiet
Layin’ down on the red carpet floor,
I don’t think I can take no more
Lay me down a line, cut it up well,
Messin’ with my brain, it has seen hell
Gonna take me a pill and grab me a drink
I don’t think I, I can’t think
Feeling good, feeling bad
Flying high, it’s kinda sad
Gotta go, go on home, mmm, take me some time off
Lay down on the couch, do some work in the garden
Play some games...
Maybe pet the dog a little, I don’t know
Just…, just… take it easy
Honey honey, let’s just go home
I know it’s been a riot
Honey honey, can’t take no more
Gotta go back where it’s quiet

Wicked Dance
04:06
|

When the day is done
And everybody has gone
His puppets will dance
His puppets will dance
I have been
The only one who has seen
His wild romance
His wild romance
Nobody but me can see his feast
In his trance he makes the skeletons
Do their wicked dance
Their wicked dance
Glowing eyes in the dark
Nothing else, just a spark
Strange and intense
Strange and intense
I have seen
The only one who has been
So entranced
So entranced
Nobody but me can see his feast
In his trance he makes the skeletons
Do their wicked dance
Their wicked dance

Big Space Boogie

Travelling at the speed of light
We lost too many battles
Shooting stars in the night
Ship can’t take no more hassle
Lasers blaring
Shields are flaring
Tractor beam’s losing traction
Thrusters thrusting
Balls are busting
Crashing on a gas giant’s moon
We’re caught in a time loop
Can’t seem to get out
Joined a mighty battle group
Now we have to come about
Lasers blaring
Shields are flaring
Tractor beam’s losing traction
Thrusters thrusting
Balls are busting
Crashing on a gas giant’s moon
An alternate dimension looms
Enemies begin their deadly prowl
We seem to be heading for our doom
In space no one can hear you howl
Lasers blaring
Shields are flaring
Tractor beam’s losing traction
Thrusters thrusting
Balls are busting
Crashing on a gas giant’s moon

Metaphor Groove
04:26
|

I’ve seen the skies
Open up for me
I’ve heard the wind
Howl my name
Shells washed up
On the shore
Writing me words
I can’t ignore
Took to the road
The less traveled one
Went round the bend
Of time and space
Sleeping under a blanket
Made of snow
Won’t grow cold
I’m rolling in dough
Her soft voice
Was music to my ears
Couldn’t take it slow
So I took it fast
Her deep dark secret
And her silken lies
I’m heartbroken
Left high and dry

The Suite
22:40
|
|||
The patterns on the wall are obscured,
Hidden quite well by the fabled facade
The lobby used to be grand
But the furnishings have gone south
But I shouldn’t worry, oh no
Where I am I don’t really know
The lady at the front desk, with her beauty gone
Smiles at you with yellowed teeth and a sense of calm
Takes your credit card and gives you the key:
„No smoking allowed in room number fourteen”
Well, I’m sitting here, in a thinking mood
And I’m looking out the window
And all I can see, are the hoi polloi
And they are all so fucking simple
Shouldn't be so quick to judge
All that talk is just double Dutch
I’ve done things that the world has never seen
And I’ve seen the lord, said take me to the queen
I have the world on my shoulders, but damn it Jim I’m getting older
And I don’t know if I’ll see the end, the clock is ticking for you my friend
---
Tick tock, your time’s up
World’s gotta end
And the people who know
Don’t understand
They never do
But my mother and my father
Were so wise
They showed me the light
That shines in everybody
Shines on through the night
Now, it’s been a good run
And I’ve tried to spread the word
But it meant nothing, nothing,
Nobody heard
Just let your worries
Boil away with the sun
---
I'm going home

Mirror of my Soul
03:14
|
|||
Lying on the couch about to have a smoke
I’ve got a one way ticket to a world of my own
It’s own little wonders in an old neighborhood
It’s a mirror of my soul
The rain outside turns into a note
Of the song I’m singing that I never wrote
It has no beginning and it never goes
It’s a mirror of my soul
The lights go on and the lights go off
Or maybe my eyes just had enough
The shapes I’m seeing are fading away
In the mirror of my soul
The memory of the day that’s passed
Slips from my mind as it always has
Like the rain’s that beating on the glass
Of the mirror of my soul
The steaming train on the old sidetrack
Is calling for me so I pick up my bag
I don’t know where I’m going but I won’t look back
In the mirror of my soul
