Lyrics
This is not meant to be a professional lyrics page with any claim of
completion...
It's just a collection of songs that I like, and most
of them have a special meaning
to me.
Songs for me mean situations, people, places, feelings, memories... but
also poetry...
And singing is living, expressing, communicating...
So go for a try and sing! (Your neighbours may have a different opinion then!)
Of course you can send me more
lyrics or a correction of mistakes.
Feel free to ask for a translation of the German songs – I’ll do my best!

YOU BELIEVE THAT ANY OF THE OBJECTS ON THESE PAGES WERE DESIGNED BY YOU
(PROVE IT FIRST) AND YOU DO NOT WISH THEM TO BE PRESENT ON MY SITE, PLEASE LET
ME KNOW AND I WILL REMOVE THEM.

Crying
There was a time
When I was so broken hearted
Love wasn't much of a friend of mine
The tables have turned yeah
'Cause me and them ways have parted
That kind of love was the killin' kind
Listen all I want is someone I can't resist
I know all I need to know by the way that I got kissed
Chorus:
I was cryin' when I met you
Now I'm tryin' to forget you
Love it sweet misery
I was cryin' just to get you
Now I'm dyin' 'cause I let you
Do what you do down on me
Now there's not even breathin' room
Between pleasure and pain
Yeah you cry when we're makin' love
Must be one and the same
It's down on me
Yeah I got to tell you one thing
It's been on my mind
Girl I gotta say
We're partners in crime
You got that certain something
What you give to me
Takes my breath away
Now the word out on the street
Is the devil's in your kiss
If our love goes up in flames
It's a fire I can't resist
Chorus
Do what you do to me
'Cause what you got inside
Ain't where your love should stay
Yeah our love sweet love ain't love
'Til you give your heart away
Aerosmith
I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing
I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
Far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Well every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure
Chorus:
I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
Lying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
And I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever forever and ever
Chorus
I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well I just wanna be with you
Right here with you just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time
Chorus x2
Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep yeah
I don't wanna miss a thing

Hand In My Pocket
I'm broke but I'm happy
I'm poor but I'm kind
I'm short but I'm healthy yeah
I'm high but I'm grounded
I'm sane but I'm overwhelmed
I'm lost but I'm hopeful baby
And what it all comes down to
Is that everythin's going to be fine fine fine
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a high five
I feel drunk but I'm sober
I'm young and I'm underpaid
I'm tired but I'm working yeah
I care but I'm restless
I'm here but I'm really gone
I'm wrong and I'm sorry baby
And what it all comes down to
Is that everything's gonna be quite alright
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is flicking a cigarette
What it all comes down to
Is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is giving a peace sign
I'm free but I'm focused
I'm green but I'm wise
I'm hard but I'm friendly baby
I'm sad but I'm laughing
I'm brave but I'm chicken shit
I'm sick but I'm pretty baby
And what it all boils down to
Is that no one's really got it figured out just yet
But I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is playing the piano
And what it all comes down to my friends yeah
Is that everything's just fine fine fine
'Cause I've got one hand in my pocket
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab

Head Over Feet
I had no choice but to hear you
You stated your case time and again
I thought about it
You treat me like I'm a princess
I'm not used to liking that
You ask how my day was
Chorus:
You've already won me over in spite of me
Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feet
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are
I couldn't help it it's all your fault
Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole
You're so much braver than I gave you credit for
That's not lip service
Chorus
You are the bearer of unconditional things
You held your breath and the door for me
Thanks for your patience
You're the best listener that I've ever met
You're my best friend best friend with benefits
What took me so long
I've never felt this healthy before
I've never wanted something rational
I am aware now
I am aware now
Chorus x2
I couldn't help it it's all your fault

Ironic
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It’s a black fly in your Chardonnay
It’s a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn’t it ironic don’t you think
Chorus:
It’s like rain on your wedding day
It’s a free ride when you’ve already paid
It’s the good advice that you just didn’t take
Who would have thought it figures
Mr Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids good-bye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And when the plane crashed down he thought
Well isn’t that nice
And isn’t it ironic don’t you think
Chorus
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything’s okay and everything’s going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out
When you think everything’s gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
Traffic jam when you’re already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It’s like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It’s meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife!
And isn’t it ironic don’t you think
A little too ironic and yeah I really do think
Chorus
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny funny way of helping you out
Helping you out

Joining You
Dear darlin' your mom my friend
Left a message on my machine
She was frantic saying you were talking crazy
That you wanted to do away with yourself
I guess she thought I'd be a perfect resort
'Cause we've had this inexplicable connection since our youth
And yes they're in shock they are panicked
You and your chronic them and their drama
You this embarassment us in the middle of this delusion
If we were our bodies
If we were our futures
If we were our defenses
I'd be joining you
If we were our culture
If we were our leaders
If we were our denials
I'd be joining you
I remember vividly a day years ago we were camping
You knew more than you thought you should know
You said "I don't want ever to be brainwashed"
And you were mindboggling you were intense
You were uncomfortable in your own skin
You were thirsty but mostly you were beautiful
If we were our nametags
If we were our rejections
If we were our outcomes
I'd be joining you
If we were our indignities
If we were our successes
If we were our emotions
I'd be joining you
You and I we're like four year olds
We want to know why and how come about everything
We want to reveal ourselves at will and speak our minds
And never talk small and be intuitive
And question mightily and find God my tortured beacon
We need to find like-minded companions
If we were their condemnations
If we were their projections
If we were our paranoias
I'd be joining you
If we were our incomes
If we were our obsessions
If we were our afflictions
I'd be joining you
We need reflection
We really need a really good memory
Feel free to call me a little more often

No Pressure Over Capuccino
And you're like a 90's jesus
And you revel in your psychosis
How dare you
And you sample concepts like hors d'euvres
And you eat their questions for dessert
Is it just me or is it hot in here
And you're like a 90's kennedy
And you're really a million years old
You can't fool me
They'll throw opinions like rocks in riots
And they'll stumble around like hypocrites
Is it just me or is it dark in here?
Well you may never be or have a husband you may never have or hold a child
You will learn to lose everything we are temporary arrangements
And you're like a 90's noah
And they laughed at you as you packed all of your things
And they wonder why you're frustrated
And they wonder why you're so angry
And is it just me or are you fed up?
And may god bless you in your travels in your conquests and queries

Princes Familiar
Please be philosophical
Please be tapped into your femininity
Please be able to take the wheel from me
Please be crazy and curious
Papa love your princess so that she will find loving princes familiar
Papa cry for your princess so that she will find gentle princes familiar
Please be a sexaholic
Please be unpredictably miserable
Please be self absorbed much (not the good kind)
Please be addicted to some substance
Papa listen to your princess so that she will find attentive princes familiar
Papa hear your princess so that she will find curious princes familiar
Please be the jerk of my knee I've fit you always
You finish my sentences I think I love you
What is your name again no matter I'm guessing your thoughts again
Correctly and I love the way
You press my buttons so much sometimes I could strangle you
Papa laugh with your princess so that she will find funny princes familiar
Papa respect your princess so that she will find respectful princes familiar
Please be strangely enigmatic
Please be just like my

Thank U
How 'bout getting off of these antibiotics
How 'bout stopping eating when I'm full up
How 'bout them transparent dangling carrots
How 'bout that ever-elusive kudo
Chorus:
Thank you India
Thank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silence
How 'bout me not blaming you for everything
How 'bout me enjoying the moment for once
How 'bout how good it feels to finally forgive you
How 'bout grieving it all one at a time
Chorus
The moment I let go of it was the moment
I got more than I could handle
The moment I jumped off of it
Was the moment I touched down
How 'bout no longer being masochistic
How 'bout remembering your divinity
How 'bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out
How 'bout not equating death with stopping
Thank you India
Thank you providence
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you nothingness
Thank you clarity
Thank you thank you silence

These Are The Thoughts
These are the thoughts that go through my head in my
Backyard on a Sunday afternoon when I have the house to
Myself and i'm not expending all that energy on fighting with
My boyfriend
Is he the one that I will marry? why is it so hard to be
Objective about myself? why do I feel cellularly alone? am I
Supposed to live in this crazy city? can blindly continued fear-
Induced regurgitated life-denying tradition be overcome?
Where does the money go that I send to those in need? if we
Have so much why do some people have nothing still? why do I
Feel frantic when I first wake up in the morning? why do you
Say you are spiritual yet you treat people like shit?
How can you say you're close to god and yet you talk behind
My back as though I am not a part of you? why do I say I'm fine
When it's obvious I'm not? why's it so hard to tell you
What I want? why can't you just read my mind?
Why do I fear that the quieter I am the less you will listen?
Why do I care whether you like me or not? why is it so hard
For me to be angry? why is it such work to stay conscious and
So easy to get stuck and not the other way around?
Will I ever move back to canada? can I be with a lover with
Whom I am a student and a master? why am I encouraged to
Shut my mouth when it gets too close to home? why cannot I
Live in the moment?

Uninvited
Like anyone would
be
I am flattered by
your fascination with me
Like any hot-blooded woman
I have simply wanted an object to crave
But you you’re not allowed
You’re uninvited
An unfortunate side
Must be strangely exciting
To watch the stoic squirm
Must be somewhat hard telling
To watch them burn me, shepherd
But you you’re not allowed
You’re uninvited
An unfortunate side
Like any uncharted territory
I must seem greatly intriguing
You speak of all my love like
You have experienced love like mine before
But this is not allowed
You’re uninvited
An unfortunate side
I don’t think you’re unworthy
I need a moment to deliberate

You Learn
I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone
I recommend walking around naked in your living room
Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill)
It feels so good (swimming in your stomach)
Wait until the dust settles
Chorus:
You live you learn
You love you learn
You cry you learn
You lose you learn
You bleed you learn
You scream you learn
I recommend biting off more than you can chew to anyone
I certainly do
I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time
Feel free
Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind)
Hold it up (to the rays)
You wait and see when the smoke clears
Chorus
Wear it out (the way a three-year-old would do)
Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually anyway)
The fire trucks are coming up around the bend
Chorus
You grieve you learn
You choke you learn
You laugh you learn
You choose you learn
You pray you learn
You ask you learn
You live you learn

You Oughta Know
I want you to know that I'm happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both
An older version of me
Is she perverted like me
Would she go down on you in a theatre
Does she speak eloquently
And would she have your baby
I'm sure she'd make an excellent mother
Bridge:
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you'd hold me
Until you died 'til you died
But you're still alive
Chorus:
And I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It's not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You you you oughta know
You seem very well things look peaceful
I'm not quite as well I thought you should know
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
Are you thinking of me when you fuck her
Bridge
Chorus
'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me
And I'm not gonna fade
As soon as you close your eyes and you know it
And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back
I hope you feel it well can you feel it
Chorus

Never Ever
A few questions that I need to know, how could you ever hurt me so?
I need to know what I've done wrong, and how long it's been going on.
Was it that I never paid enough attention? Or did I not give enough affection?
Not only will your answers keep me sane,
But I'll know never to make the same mistake again.
You can tell me to my face or even on the phone.
You can write it in a letter, but either way, I have to know.
Did I never treat you right? Did I always start the fight?
Either way, I'm goin' out of my mind.
All the answers to my questions I have to find.
My head's spinning boy I'm in a daze
I feel isolated don't want to communicate
I'll take a shower, I will scour, I will rub
Find a piece of mind to have be mine
I'm a woman's own (yeah)
Placing vocabulary runs right through me
The alphabet runs right from A to Z
Conversation hesitations in my mind
You got my conscience asking questions that I can't find
I'm not crazy I'm sure I've done nothing wrong
No, I'm just waiting because I've heard that this feeling
Won't last that long
Chorus:
Never ever have I ever felt so low
When are you gonna take me out of this black-hole
Never ever have I ever felt so sad
The way I'm feeling yeah you've got me feeling really bad
Never ever have I had to find
I've had think of a way to find my own peace of mind
Never ever had my conscience to fight
The way I'm feeling, yeah it just don't feel right
I'll keep searching deep within my soul
For all the answers don't want to hurt no more
I need peace got to feel at ease need to be freed from pain
Goin’ insane - my heart aches yeah
Sometimes vocabulary runs to my head
The alphabet runs right through from A to Z
Conversations hesitations in my mind
You got my conscience asking questions that I can't find
I'm not crazy I'm sure I've done nothing wrong
No, I'm just waiting because I've heard that this feeling
Won't last that long...
Chorus x 3
You can tell me to my face, you can tell me on the phone
You can write it in a letter, babe, because I really need to know
You can write it in a letter, babe...

Snow On The Sahara
Only tell me that you still want me here
When you wander off out there
To those hills of dust and hard winds that blows
In that dry white ocean alone...
Lost out in the desert...
You are lost out in the desert...
But to stand with you in a ring of fire
I'll forget the days gone by
I'll protect your body and guard your soul
From mirages in your sight
Lost out in the desert ...
Chorus:
If your hopes scatter like the dust across your track
I'll be the moon that shines on your path
The sun may blind our eyes I'll pray the skies above
For snow to fall on the Sahara
If that's the only place where you can leave your doubts
I'll hold you up and be your way out
And if we burn away I'll pray the skies above
For snow to fall on the Sahara
Just a wish and I will cover your shoulders
With veils of silk and gold
When the darkness comes and darkened your heart
Leaving you with regrets so cold
Lost out in the desert...
Chorus

I Want It That Way
Yeah-eh-heah
You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way
But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way
Chorus:
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way
Am I your fire?
Your one desire
Yes I know it's too late
But I want it that way
Chorus
Now I can see that we've fallen apart
From the way that it used to be yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know
That deep down inside of me...
You are my fire
The one desire
You are (You are, You are, You are...)
Don't wanna hear you say
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way
Chorus x2
Cuz I want it that way

Everybody’s Free (to wear sunscreen)
Ladies and gentlemen, the class of '99Wear Sunscreen
If I could offer you only one tip for the future Sunscreen would be it
The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists
Whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own
Meandering experience I will dispense this advice now
Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth
Never mind, you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth
until they've faded but trust me
In twenty years, you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in
a way you can't grasp now
How much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked
You are not as fat as you imagine don't worry about the future
Or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve
An algebra equation by chewing bubble gum the real troubles in your life
Are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind
The kind that blindside you at 4 pm on some idle Tuesday
Do one thing, everyday, that scares you; sing
Don't be reckless with other people's hearts
Don't put up with people who are reckless with yours; floss
Don't waste your time on jealousy
Sometimes you're ahead, sometimes you're behind
The race is long, and in the end, it's only with yourself
Remember compliments you receive forget the insults
If you succeed in doing this, tell me how
Keep your old love letters
Throw away your old bank statements; stretch
Don't feel guilty if you don't know what you wanna do with your life
The most interesting people I know
didn't know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives
Some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don't
Get plenty of calcium; be kind to your knees, you'll miss them when they're gone
Maybe you'll marry maybe you won't
Maybe you'll have children maybe you won't
Maybe you'll divorce at 40
Maybe you'll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary
Whatever you do, don't congratulate yourself too much
Or berate yourself either
Your choices are half chance so are everybody else's
Enjoy your body
Use it every way you can
Don't be afraid of it, or what other people think of it
It's the greatest instrument you'll ever own; dance
Even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room
Read the directions, even if you don't follow them
Do not read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly
Get to know your parents you never know when they'll be gone for good
Be nice to your siblings they're your best link to your past
And the people most likely to stick with you in the future
Understand that friends come and go
But with a precious few you should hold on
Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography and life style
'Cause the older you get
The more you need the people you knew when you were young
Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard
Live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft; travel
Accept certain inalienable truths
Prices will rise, politicians will philander
You too will get old, and when you do
You'll fantasize that when you were young
Prices were reasonable, politicians were noble
And children respected their elders respect your elders
Don't expect anyone else to support you maybe you have a trust fund
Maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse
But you never know when either one might run out
Don't mess too much with your hair or by the time you're 40 it will look 85
Be careful of whose advice you buy but be patient with those who supply it
Advice is a form of nostalgia
Dispensing it, is a way of fishing the past from the disposal
Wiping it off
Painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth
But trust me on the sunscreen

Along Comes Mary
Every time I think that I’m the only one who’s lonely
Someone calls on me
And every now and then I spend my time on rhyme and verse
And curse those faults in me
And then along comes Mary
And does she want to give me kicks and be my steady chick
And give me pick of memories
Or maybe rather gather tales
From all the fails and tribulations
No one ever sees
When we met I was sure out to lunch
Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch
When vague desire is the fire
In the eyes of chicks whose sickness
Is the game they play
And when the masquerade is played
The neighbor folks make jokes
At who is most to blame today
And then along comes Mary
And does she want to set them free
And let them see reality
From where she got her name
And they will struggle much
When told that such a tender touch of hers
Will make them not the same
When we met I was sure out to lunch
Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch
And when the morning of the warning’s passed
The gacced and flaccid kids
Are flung across the stars
The psychodramas and the traumas gone
The songs have all been sung
And hung upon the scars
And then along comes Mary
And does she want to see the stains
The dead remains of all the pain
She left the night before
Or will their waking eyes reflect the lies
And make them realize
Their urgent cry for sight no more
When we met I was sure out to lunch
Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch
Sweet as the punch
Sweet as the punch
Sweet as the punch
Sweet as the punch

Me and you do the kind of stuff that only Prince would sing about
So put your hands down my pants and I'll bet you'll feel nuts
Yes I'm Siskel yes I'm Ebert and you're getting two thumbs up
You've had enough of two hand touch you want it rough you're out of bounds

You and me baby ain't nothin' but mammals
So let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel

You and me baby ain't nothin' but mammals
So let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel
(Gettin' horny now)
Love the kind you clean up with the mop and bucket
Like the lost catacombs of Egypt only God knows where we stuck it
Hieroglyphics let me Pacific I wanna be down in your South Seas
But I got this notion that the motion of your ocean means "Small Craft
Advisory"
So if capsize on your thighs high tide B-5 you sunk my battleship
Please turn me on I'm Mr Coffee with an automatic drip
So show me your's I'll show you mine "Tool Time" you'll Lovett just

And then we'll do it doggy style so we can both watch "X-Files"

Yo yo this hard-core ghetto ganster image takes a lot of practice

Boy you've got me blinded
Oh pretty baby there's nothing that I wouldn't do
It's not the way I planned it
Show me how you want it to be
Tell me baby 'cause I need to know now oh because
Chorus
Oh baby baby
How was I supposed to know?
Oh pretty baby I shouldn't have let you go
I must confess that my loneliness is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time
Chorus
I must confess that my loneliness
Is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me baby one more time

Born To Make You Happy
I'm sitting here
alone up in my room
And thinking about the times that we've been through
(oh my love)
I'm looking at a picture in my hand
Trying my best to understand
I really want to know what we did wrong
With a love that felt so strong
If only you were here tonight
I know that we could make it right
Chorus:
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
Cause you're the only one within my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
I know I've been a fool since you've been gone
I'd better give it up and carry on
(oh my love)
Cause living in a dream of you and me
Is not the way our life should be
I don't want to cry a tear for you
So forgive me if I do
If only you were here tonight
I know that we could make it right
Chorus
I'd do anything I'd give you my world
I'd wait forever to be your girl
Just call out my name and I will be there
Just to show you how much I care
Chorus

(You Drive Me) Crazy
(Crazy)
Baby I'm so into you
You got that something what can I do
Baby you spin me around
The earth is moving but I can't feel the ground
Every time you look at me
My heart is jumpin' it's easy to see
Chorus:
You drive me crazy I just can't sleep
I'm so excited I'm in too deep
Crazy but it feels all right
Baby thinkin' of you keeps me up all night
Tell me you're so into me
That I'm the only one you will see
Tell me I'm not in the blue oh
That I'm not wasting my feelings on you
Every time I look at you
My heart is jumping what can I do
Chorus
Yeah you drive me crazy
Sing it
Crazy yeah yeah
Stop!
You drive me crazy baby
Excited I'm in too deep
I'm right it feels all right
Baby thinkin' of you keeps me up all night
You drive me crazy (crazy)
I just can't see (yeah yeah)
I'm so excited I'm in too deep (too deep baby)
Crazy but it feels all right
Baby thinking of you keeps me up all night (night)
Sing it
Crazy, crazy
You drive me crazy but it feels all right
Baby thinking of you keeps me up all night
Britney Spears
Sometimes
You tell me you're in love with me
That you can't take your pretty eyes away from me
It's not that I don't want to stay
But every time you come too close I walk away
I wanna believe in everything that you say
'Cause it sounds so good
But if you really want me, move slow
There's things about me you just have to know
Chorus:
Sometimes I run, sometimes I hide
Sometimes I'm scared of you
But all I really want is to hold you tight
Treat you right, be with you day and night
Baby all I need is time
I don't wanna be so shy
Every time that I'm alone I wonder why
Hope that you will wait for me
You'll see that you're the only one for me
I wanna believe in everything that you say
'Cause it sounds so good
But if you really want me, move slow
There's things about me you just have to know
Chorus x2
Just hang around and you'll see
There's nowhere I'd rather be
If you love me, trust in me
The way that I trust in you

My Heart Will Go On
Every night in my dreams I see you I feel you
That is how I know you go on
Far across the distance and spaces between us
You have come to show you go on
Chorus:
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
Love can touch us one time and last for a lifetime.
And never let go 'til we're gone
Love was when I loved you one true time I hold you
In my life we'll always go on
Chorus
You're here there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way you are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on
Cher
Believe
No matter how hard I try you keep pushing me aside
And I can't break through there's no talking to you
It's so sad that you're leaving it takes time to believe it
But after all is said and done you're gonna be the lonely one!
Chorus:
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
"I really don't think you're strong enough"
Do you believe in life after love?
I can feel something inside me say
"I really don't think you're strong enough"
What am I supposed to do, sit around and wait for you?
Well I can't do that and there's no turning back
I need time to move on I need a love to feel strong
Cause I've got time to think it through and maybe I'm too good for you!
Chorus
Well I know that I'll get through this!
'Cause I know that I am strong
I don't need you anymore I don't need you anymore I don't need you anymore
No I don't need you anymore!
Chorus x 2

Genie In A Bottle
I feel like I’ve been locked up tight for a century of lonely nights
Waiting for someone to release me
You’re licking your lips and blowing kisses my way
But that don’t mean I’m gonna give it away baby, baby, baby
Ohh (My body’s saying "let’s go") Ohh (But my heart is saying
"no")
Chorus:
If you wanna be with me baby there’s a price to pay:
I’m a genie in a bottle - you got to rub me the right way
If you wanna be with me I can make your wish come true
You got to make a big impression I got to like what you do
I’m a genie in a bottle baby, you gotta rub me the right way, honey
I’m a genie in a bottle baby. Come, come, come and let me out
Music’s playing and the lights are low
There’s one more lesson and we’re good to go
Waiting for someone who needs me
Hormones racing at the speed of light
But that don’t mean it's got to be tonight baby, baby, baby
Ohh (My body’s saying "let’s go") Ohh (But my heart is saying
"no")
Chorus
Bridge x 2
Ohh (My body’s saying "let’s go") Ohh (But my heart is saying

You're never gonna keep me down

Kissing you
Pride can stand a thousand trials
The strong will never fall
But watching stars without you
My soul cries
Heaving heart
Is full of pain
Oh oh the aching
‘Cause I’m kissing you
I’m kissing you oh
Touch me deep
Pure and true
Give to me for ever
‘Cause I’m kissing you
I’m kissing you oh
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
‘Cause I’m kissing you
I’m kissing you oh

Life
I’m afraid of the dark
Especially when I’m in a park
When there’s no one else around
Oh I get the shivers
I don’t wanna see a ghost
It’s the sight that I fear most
I’d rather have a piece of toast
Watch the evening news
Chorus:
Life oh life oh life oh life ...
I’m a superstitious girl
I’m the worst in the world
Never walk under ladders
I keep a rabbit’s tail
I’ll take you up on a dare
Anytime anywhere
Name the place I’ll be there
Bungee jumping I don’t care
Chorus
So after all is said and done
I know I’m not the only one
Life indeed can be fun
If you really want to
Sometimes living out your dreams
Ain’t as easy as it seems
You wanna fly around the world
In a beautiful balloon
Chorus

You Gotta Be
Chorus 1:
Listen as your day unfolds
Challenge what the future holds
Try and keep your head up to the sky
Lovers they may cause you tears
Go ahead release your fears
Stand up and be counted
Don't be ashamed to cry
Chorus 2:
You gotta be you gotta be bad
You gotta be bold you gotta be wiser
You gotta be hard you gotta be tough
You gotta be stronger you gotta be cool
You gotta be calm you gotta stay together
All I know all I know love will save the day
Hear at what your mother said
Readin' the books your father read
Try to solve the puzzles in your own sweet time
Some may have more cash than you
Others take a different view
my oh my heh hey
Chorus 2
Don't ask no questions it goes on without you
Leaving you behind if you can't stand the pace
The world keeps on spinning
You can't stop it if you try to
This time it's danger staring you in the face
oh oh oh Remember
Chorus 1
My oh my heh hey hey

Bills, Bills, Bills
At first we started out real cool taking me places I ain't never been
But now you're getting comfortable ain't doing those things you did no more
You're solely making me pay for things your money should be handling
And now you ask to use my car drive it all day and don't fill up the tank
And you have the audacity to even come and step to me
Ask to hold some money from me until you get your cheque next week
You triflin' good for nothing type of brother
Silly me why haven't I found another?
A baller when times get hard - He's the one to help me out
Instead of a scrub like you who don't know what a man's about
Chorus:
Can you pay my bills? Can you pay my telephone bills?
Can you pay my automo-bills? If you did then maybe we could chill
I don't think you do so you and me are through
Now you've been maxing out my cards
Got me bad credit buying me gifts with my own ends
Haven't paid the first bill but your steady heading to the mall
Going on shopping sprees
Perpertrating to your friends that you be balling
And then you use my cell phone calling whoever you think at home
And then when the bill comes all the sudden you be acting dumb
Don't know where none of the calls come from
When your mama's number is here more than once
You triflin’ good for nothing type of brother
Silly me why haven't I found another
A baller when times get hard need someone to help me out
Instead of a scrub like you who don't know what a man's about

Save Tonight
Go on and close the curtains
'Cause all we need is candlelight
You and me and the bottle of wine
And hold you tonight
Well we know I'm going away
And how I wish I wish it weren't so
So take this wine and drink with me
Let's delay our misery...
Save tonight
Fight the break at dawn
Come tomorrow
Tomorrow I'll be gone
There's a log on the fire
And it burns like me for you
Tomorrow comes with one desire..
To take me away
It ain't easy to say goodbye
Darling please don't start to cry
'Cause girl you know I've got to go
and Lord I wish it wasn't so
Tomorrow comes to take me away
I wish that I that I could stay
But girl you know I've got to go oh
and Lord I wish it wasn't so
Echt
Fort von mir
Ich bin nicht immer gut zu dir
Genaugenommen bin ich manchmal
Ganz schön schlecht
Aber ich meine nicht alles so
Wie ich es sage
Es ist ein komisches Gefühl
Zu wissen du bist nicht mehr hier bei mir
Können wir irgendetwas tun, das ist die Frage
Was ich für dich fühle
Ja das ist was ich für dich fühle
Ja das ist was ich für dich fühle ja das ist echt
Chorus:
Wünsch dich nicht fort von mir
Bitte bleib hier bei mir
Bitte geh nicht durch diese Tür
Wünsch dich nicht fort von mir
Man merkt immer erst was man hat
Wenn man dabei ist alles zu verlieren
Doch es ist niemals vorbei
Bis es vorbei ist
Was immer auch passiert das soll
Was immer auch passiert das soll passieren
Chorus
Was ich für dich fühle
Ja das ist was ich für dich fühle
Ja das ist was ich für dich fühle ja das ist echt
Chorus
Echt
Weinst Du
Uns’re Liebe ist am Boden, läuft langsam aus
Dreht noch 'ne Ehrenrunde, bis sie still steht
Und Du ich geh am Stock, will nie wieder schlafen
Solange Du mich Nacht für Nacht in meinen Träumen besuchst
Jetzt lieg ich neben Dir, wir hab’n uns alles gesagt
Hab’n uns ausgesprochen, uns Luft gemacht
Ich fühl mich wie ausgekotzt, Dir geht’s nicht viel besser
Da seh ich es in Deinen Augen glitzern
Chorus:
Sag mal weinst Du oder ist das der Regen
Der von Deiner Nasenspitze tropft
Sag mal weinst Du etwa oder ist das der Regen
Der von Deiner Oberlippe perlt
Komm her ich küß den Tropfen weg
Probier ihn ob er salzig schmeckt
Jetzt sitz ich hier, schreib nur noch blinde Liebeslieder
Von Herz und Schmerz und Schmalz
Und so was Tolles kommt nie wieder
Hätt ich nie gedacht, noch vor ein paar Tagen
Lagen wir uns Nacht für Nacht im Arm
Jetzt lieg ich neben Dir, wir hab’n uns alles gesagt
Hab’n uns ausgesprochen, uns Luft gemacht
Ich fühl mich wie ausgekotzt, Dir geht’s nicht viel besser
Da seh ich es in Deinen Augen glitzern
Chorus
Jetzt lieg ich neben Dir, wir hab’n uns alles gesagt
Hab’n uns ausgesprochen, uns Luft gemacht
Ich fühl mich wie ausgekotzt, Dir geht’s nicht viel besser
Da seh ich es in Deinen Augen glitzern
Sag mal weinst Du oder ist das der Regen
Der von Deiner Nasenspitze tropft
Sag mal heulst Du etwa oder ist das der Regen
Der von Deiner Oberlippe perlt
Komm her ich küß den Tropfen weg
Probier ihn ob er salzig schmeckt
I tried to
rewrite this song in English so that it fits in the melody. It deals
with the same kind of situation but except for the chorus it’s not a
translation.
You'll find it also in the "poems" list:
Are you crying
Our big big love is broken
It’s sad but true
You say the dream is over
Make me wake up
For me it is a shock
I just can’t believe it
That you want to forget the time
We were so happy and proud
You try to justify, your explanations are poor
I wouldn’t change your mind but you don’t seem to be sure
I feel so desperate, do you feel the same?
I’m not sure: is there in your voice a trembling?
Chorus:
Are you crying or is it a raindrop
That is rolling down your cheek
Are you crying honey or is it a raindrop
That is pearling from your nose
Come on I’ll kiss the drop away
I taste and find it’s salty…
When we once met
We were involved before we knew it
There was no other choice
We both felt touched by magic through it
And you said you care
I thought that you were stronger
But you lost the fight against yourself
You try to justify, your explanations are poor
I wouldn’t change your mind but you don’t seem to be sure
I feel so desperate, do you feel the same?
I’m not sure but isn’t your voice trembling?

Yo listen up: here's a story
About a little guy
That lives in a blue world
And all day and all night and everything he sees is
Just blue like him inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window
And a blue Corvette and everything is blue for him
And himself and everybody around
'Cause he ain't got nobody to listen
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I have a blue house with a blue window
Blue is the color of all that I wear
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue
Blue are the people here that walk around
Blue like my Corvette it's standing outside
Blue are the words I say and what I think
Blue are the feelings that live inside me
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I have a blue house with a blue window
Blue is the color of all that I wear
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue
Blue are the people here that walk around
Blue like my Corvette it's standing outside
Blue are the words I say and what I think
Blue are the feeling that live inside me
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I'm blue (da ba dee)
Just blue like him inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window
And a blue Corvette and everything is blue for him
And himself and everybody around
'Cause he aint got nobody to listen
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I'm blue (da ba dee)
I'm blue (da ba dee)

Big big world
Chorus:
I'm a big big girl
in a big big world
It's not a big big thing if you leave me
but I do do feel that
I too too will miss you much
miss you much
I can see the first leaf falling
it's all yellow and nice
It's so very cold outside
like the way I'm feeling inside
Chorus
Outside it's now raining
and tears are falling from my eyes
why did it have to happen
why did it all have to end
Chorus
I have your arms around me
ooooh like fire
but when I open my eyes
you're gone

When Susannah Cries
Chorus:
When Susannah cries
She cries a rainstorm
She cries a river
She cries a hole in the ground
She cries for love
She cries a sad song
She cries a shiver
Sometimes she cries for me too
And I say I'll never hurt her
But she knows it isn't true
'Cos although never told her
I think she knows 'bout me and you
Now she cries with silent tension
This can't be right
And the downtown special cries along
'Cos I'm leaving tonight
Chorus
Now I slip the night around her
And I hope she'll be okay
I just pray someone will find her
And guide her on her way
'Cos I'm leaving on the 1AM
And by soon I'm out of sight
But she'll always be my baby
Though I'm leaving tonight
Every night I hear her
Talking in her sleep
She says "You know I'll always be there"
And I feel like such a creep
Please take back the love she gave to me
And in time her grief may pass
Just tell her that I loved her
Now it's all she has
When Susannah cries
Faith
No More
Easy
I know it sounds funny but I just can't stand the pain
Girl I'm leaving you tomorrow
Seems to me girl you know I've done all I can
You see I beg, stole and I borrowed
Yeah!
That's why I'm easy
I'm easy like Sunday morning
It's why I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning
I wanna be high
So high
I wanna be free to know the things I do are right
I wanna be free
Just me
Oh babe!
It's why I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning
It's why I'm easy
Easy like Sunday morning

Insomnia
I only smoke weed
when I need to
And I need to get some rest
I confess I burnt a hole in the mattress
Yes yes it was me I plead guilty
And on the count of three I pull back the duvet
Make my way to the refrigerator
One dry potato inside no lie
Not even bread jam
When the light above my head went bam!
I can't sleep something's all over me
Greasy insomnia please release me
And let me dream about making mad love on the heath
Tearing off tights with my teeth
But there's no relief
I'm wide awake in my kitchen
It's dark and I'm lonely
Oh if I could only get some sleep
Creeky noises make my skin creep
I need to get some sleep
I can't get no sleep....

Buenos Dias Messias
Chorus:
Dieses Haus ist besetzt ohne Pause bis jetzt
Denn wir kamen zuerst und wir gehen auch zuletzt
Buenos Dias Messias auch wenn's dir nicht passt
Du bist nur Gast hier du faßt hier nichts an
Bei einigen leidigen Themen lehnen wir's Reden ab
und leider gibt's nicht viel das noch nicht gesuckt hat
Nicht nach kurzem beknackt war wie der Pappstar der zu matt war
Um mehr zu sein als Jingle zu seinem Abziehbild
Oder ein paar Singles hinter'm Namensschild
Doch ich weiß Image ist nichts und scheiß auf alle die bekannt sind
Im Land sind zu viele Promis die nicht bei Verstand sind
Zu viele Homies die noch nicht am Strand sind am Rand sind
Zu viele Gaffer deren Augenblicke so leer ·
sie wollen noch mehr
Helden fallen sehen alle Denker lallen sehen ·
ich seh sie schon
als Wanker in Museenhallen stehen ·
sie werden kommen und gehen
Alles nur Gesichter ·
im Zeitgeschehen der Club der toten Dichter
stimmt mich nicht versöhnlich ·
ich werde weitergehen und lebe lieber
ungewöhnlich ·
denn das hier geht an alle unsere Widersacher
Wichtigmacher ·
Cocksucker Motherfucker Hosenkacker ·
aalglatte
nimmersatte Jammerlappen die wie Ratten in Kloaken · darauf
warten
über unsere Platten zu beraten ha ·
ihr ganzen Abklemmer Flachwanker
Spartendenker ·
wir sind eure Rattenfänger autonome Einzelgänger
Weil wir länger halten als der Typ im Sarkophag
Während ihr Idioten euer eigenes Grab grabt
Chorus
Denn wenn ich dir in deiner Welt nichts sagen kann
Wozu dann all diese Fragen Mann ·
anscheinend interessiert
es dich ja doch was der Typ so treibt ·
und mit wem er was macht
und wo er bleibt ·
daß sowas Mitgefühl ist glaub ich kaum ·
ich fürchte
fast ich bin dein lebender Alptraum ·
müllredender Abschaum
der dich ständig disst ·
und dabei sag ich doch nur was du für mich bist
Die ganze Pisse die dein Leben durch meine Venen spült ·
verursacht
Risse und mein Herz unterkühlt ·
doch da meine Liebe wasserdicht
und meine Seele kugelsicher ·
macht ihr Stricher bei mir keinen
Stich mehr ·
ich bin euer Richter und Henker ihr Wanker
und nach mir kommt nichts mehr ·
denn das hier geht...
Chorus
Staubige Hände mit zerknitterten Karten ·
von draußen kommen
Fremde die aufs Ende des Gewitters warten ·
vom Piano klingt dasselbe
Lied wie immer ·
und Frauen verkaufen Liebe auf dem Zimmer
Dichter Rauch macht die Luft zum Schneiden dick ·
mit einem
Seitenblick erkenn ich dich im Dämmerlicht ·
und was ich seh
ist jämmerlich falscher Platz falsche Zeit ·
diese Stadt ist zu klein
für uns zwei ·
der Himmel weint kein Mensch weit und breit
Zwanzig Schritte entfernt trennt dich von mir die Ewigkeit
Während ich dir in die Augen schaue merke ich du ziehst
Höre wie du schießt bleib noch stehen und sehe dir zu
Wie du sie dann für immer schließt

Hammer
Ok ich kam zu der Beziehung genau wie die Zahl zur Ziehung
der Lottozahlen oder wie Stars zu Bravo-Otto-Wahlen
Bei der Mißwahl meines Lebens ist sie die Nummer Eins
Nenn es Schicksal oder Zufall oder nenn's von beiden keins
Sie ist die Frau die mir den Atem raubt mir die Sprache klaut
Mir auf den Magen haut mir letztenendes die Moral versaut
Mein letztes Hemd ist mir egal ich spend's für ihr Geständnis
Wenn sie lacht die Erkenntnis daß die Gegenwart geschenkt ist
Die Zeit mit ihr ist kurz auch wenn sie lang ist und wenn sie lang ist
Dann nur weil sie mal kurz nach nebenan ist ·
bekanntlich suchen
manche lebenslang nach so was amtlichen wie ihr ·
doch der Mangel
an Massel vermasselt's ·
du puzzelst und puzzelst suchst den Weg
aus dem Schlamassel ·
suchst im ganzen nach dem Sinn des Lebens
Zwei gute Gründe findest du wenn du in ihre Augen schaust
Sie ist einmalig und sie sieht gut aus ·
sie ist der Hammer
Ja Mann das Leben spielt wie es eben will ·
jedenfalls kommt es
eher anders als man plant oder erahnt ·
und dann trifft's dich
ohne Rücksicht ob du willst oder nicht ·
machst du plötzlich
'nen Glücksgriff und dann ·
hebst du ab und schwebst
und bist so high dabei ·
als ob du über den Wolken schwebst
wie Reinhard Mey ·
keine Zeit mehr für gar nix denn seitdem
sie da ist ·
bin ich noch süchtiger nach ihr als 'n Hippie nach
Cannabis ·
und schwitz jedesmal wenn sie den Raum betritt
Als ob ich mit 'ner Daunenjacke in der Sauna sitz · kein
Witz
denn ich dreh durch wie'n Reifen im Schnee ·
wenn ich neben ihr steh
und sie mir anseh ·
die Bombe die alles um sich rum in die Luft jagt
Und jeden anderen in meinem Leben unsichtbar macht · jeder
Tag
mit ihr zusammen ist wie vier Wochen Urlaub ·
immer viel zu schnell
vorbei weil ich nie auf die Uhr schau ·
alles andere verpasse
meine Freunde mich hassen ·
und drei Typen mir droh'n mich aus
der Band zu entlassen ·
doch ich kann nichts machen weil ich
nun mal an ihr kleb' ·
wie der Scheiß an meinem Schuh wenn
ich in Kaugummi tret' ·
drum komm ich immer zu spät
und alles dauert etwas länger ·
aber bitte versteht mich:
das Baby ist der Hammer
Baby Baby geh nie weg von mir ·
Baby Baby bleib bei mir
Sie ist meine Traumfrau und kaum schau ich ihr in die Augen
Lockert sie mir die Schrauben läßt mich unentwegt an Wunder
glauben ·
mitunter rauben mir ihr Duft und ihre Stimme
meine Sinne ·
und ich erinnere mich kaum was vor diesem Traum
war · bevor
ich sie das allererste Mal sah ·
da hatte ich schon
die sieben Seen durchkämmt nur stand sie an Land ·
ich war
durch Wüsten gewandert aber sie lag am Strand ·
als ich sie endlich
fand wußten alle Bescheid ·
wir war'n ein Paar wie Bonnie und Clyde
Wir machten Kino wie Tarantino und ich war stylisch
Wie Robert de Niro in Casino und weil ich ·
'n dicken Schuh fuhr
wie'n Superstar ·
gab ich ungern zu daß ich bei ihr nur Groupie war
Doch obwohl ohne Zweifel jeder Zweite um ihre Hand Schlange stand
War klar wir beide sind das Paar ·
denn seitdem ich sie sah
wollt ich nie mehr wieder solo sein ·
lieber allein mit'm Logo der Vier
mitten in Rödelheim ·
sie meint's ernst es war kein Spaß mehr
Wo ihre Liebe hinfällt wächst kein Gras mehr ·
kaum schau ich
auf die Uhr ist mein Glas leer klar war's schwer
Mich selbst zu überreden ab jetzt nicht nur ihretwegen
Mehr auf diesem Planeten zu sein doch wenn sie will
Dann wird die ganze Welt still wie das Schweigen der Lämmer
Denn das Baby ist der Hammer

Die Fantastischen
Vier
Michi Beck In Hell
ich weiß echt nicht wie es so weit kommen konnte
wo doch alles so perfekt lief und ich in meinem Leben
immer an der Sonne wohnte ·
oben thronte zu viert im
Popstarolymp ·
mit 'nem Label das sich lohnt weil es
Millionen verdient ·
ok vielleicht war es ein bißchen übertrieben
auf Tournee ·
im eigenen Bus zu reisen und die dicksten Suiten
zu mieten ·
meinetwegen auch ein wenig vermessen für mein
neues Chefbüro ein ganzes Stockwerk unseres Hauses zu besetzen
Dennoch war's ein überraschend harter Schicksalsschlag
Als man mir offenbarte daß ich nicht mehr mitmachen darf
Tritt in' Arsch von meiner Band abruptes Ende ·
kurz darauf
bekam ich Hausverbot auf unserem Gelände ·
mein gesamtes
Hab und Gut wurde verpfändet und zur Tilgung meiner Schulden
verwendet · mein
guter Ruf in 'n Schmutz gezogen und geschändet
Wenig später unvermeidlich Ärger mit dem Vermieter · weil
ich
kein Geld mehr hatte für die 500 Quadratmeter Penthouseetage
Nach 'nem Monat ohne Gage ·
saß ich direkt auf der Straße schade
Denn das Leben dort macht auch nur Spaß solang du 'n Auto hast
Doch ohne Cash auf Täsch ziemlich blank kassierten es als
letzte Sicherheit ·
die Stricher von der Bank vielen Dank
Keinen Job mehr keine Wohnung keinen Wagen oder um es
wie Thomas zu sagen ·
hast du kein Auto und hast du kein Haus
Dann hast du keine Frau und so sieht's aus ·
ja ja genau so
lief's bei mir als ich vor ihrer Tür stand ·
und statt Liebe und Trost
nur noch 'n Zettel von ihr fand ·
das wär nicht wegen mir
doch sie sei weg um mit jemand anderem zusammen zu sein
Und ich war wieder allein allein ·
Michi Beck in hell ·
Und dann kam es wie es kommen mußte vom Leben ausgehustet
Glückssträhne abgerissen und nicht mehr verkrustet ·
ausgeblutet
abgebrannt an den Rand verbannt ·
abgestellt und trocken gelegt
wie'n Fisch an Land ·
wieder mal 'ne grausige Nacht verbracht
wo ich jetzt wohn ·
in meiner lausigen Nachbarschaft um mich herum
Der Krach der Stadt und unter mir die Parkbank ·
auf der ich mich
flach gemacht hab ·
endlich 'n Platz an der Sonne zwar ohne Dach
Dafür nachts mit 'ner brennenden Tonne ·
hab schon immer gesagt
das Leben ist wirklich ungesund ·
bist du bei Tag und Nacht real
Untergrund ·
um mich herum steh'n leere Flaschen billiger Sprit
Kein Pfennig in den Taschen und es regnet doch zum Glück
Hab ich mich mit 'ner Zeitung zugedeckt auf der die Schlagzeile steht
Daß die neue der Fantastischen Drei ·
mal wieder Nummer Eins
in den deutschen Charts belegt ·
von wegen hart aber gerecht
ich war am Arsch ·
echt unten tief gesunken auf die Knie gezwungen
Hab es nie überwunden bis ich dann ·
irgendwann meine neue Liebe
gefunden hab ·
und davon viel getrunken hab ·
sie hieß Lambrusco
und gab's an der Tanke in der Magnumflasche ·
jede Mark in meiner
Tasche ging für sie drauf ·
jeden Tag noch mehr am Arsch
es hörte nie auf ·
bis es endlich eines Nachts soweit war
Die Straße leer und naßkalt ·
längst kein Verkehr mehr und ich lag
fast nackt auf dem Asphalt ·
der letzte Rest meiner Sachen durchnässt
und zerfetzt ·
ich dachte ich könnt's schaffen bis zuletzt
Doch am Ende meiner Kräfte im eigenen Erbrochenen
Hörte mein Herz schließlich auf zu pochen denn
Erst war der Schmerz weg dann ging alles sehr schnell · Stille
· Michi
Beck in hell ·
um mich herum brannte die Luft
sengende Hitze
Schwefelgeruch brennende Blitze ·
lodernde Flammen
Ein ständiges Donnern und Dröhnen ·
unendliches Jammern
und Stöhnen aus zahllosen Kehlen gräßliche Schreie verlorener Seelen
Die sich ewig lang in Unendlichkeit quälen ·
ein Wimmern und Flehen
erschütternde Szenen ·und
ich stand mit zitternden Knien mittendrin
Bis er erschien Satan war da ·
ab da war mir klar was geschah
und ich sah ·
wo ich war als er lachte und sprach:
„Herzlich willkommen am Arsch! ·
das hier wird ab jetzt für immer
dein neues Zuhause sein ·
doch wie jedem der hier landete
räum ich auch dir 'ne letzte Chance ein ·
lächerlich klein
denn bisher konnte es noch niemand schaffen ·
mich in irgendwas
zu schlagen also wähle deine
Waffen!“ · die
Entscheidung war einfach
gegen meine Geheimwaffe konnte er einpacken ·
als ich Reime brachte
die die seinen kurz und klein hackten ·
mich mit dem Mikrofon
zu seinem bittersten Feind machte ·
und meine Worte wie Gewitter
über ihn hereinbrachen ·
ich spuckte 666 Styles binnen kürzester Zeit
Legte ihn aufs Kreuz in höllischer Geschwindigkeit · pumpte
Reim
für Reim wie Blei in ihn hinein ·
mit jeder Punchline
verschwand sein Widerstand wie von allein
Ein letzter Schrei schwarzer Rauch bevor er im Nichts verschwand
Gleißend helles Licht und dann als sei nichts passiert
Stand ich wieder bei uns Vier vor der Studiotür

Only Happy When It Rains
I'm only happy when it rains
I'm only happy when it's complicated
And though I know you can't appreciate it
I'm only happy when it rains
You know I love it when the news is bad
And why it feels so good to feel so sad
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down
Pour your misery down on me
(x2)
I'm only happy when it rains
I feel good when things are going wrong
I only listen to the sad sad songs
I'm only happy when it rains
I only smile in the dark
My only comfort is the night gone black
I didn't accidentally tell you that
I'm only happy when it rains
You'll get the message by the time I'm through
When I complain about me and you
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour your misery down
Pour your misery down on me
(x3)
Pour your misery down
You can keep me company as long as you don't care
I'm only happy when it rains
You wanna hear about my new obsession
I'm riding high upon a deep depression
I'm only happy when it rains
Pour some misery down on me
Garbage
I Think I'm Paranoid
You can look but you can't touch
I don't think I like you much
Heaven knows what a girl can do
Heaven knows what you've got to prove
I think I'm paranoid
And complicated
I think I'm paranoid
Manipulated
Chorus:
Bend me break me
Any way you need me
All I want is you
Bend me break me
Breaking down is easy
All I want is you
I fall down just to give you a thrill
Prop me up with another pill
If I should fail if I should fold
I am my fate to the sticking pole
I think I'm paranoid
Manipulated
I think I'm paranoid
And complicated
Chorus
Paranoid
I think I'm paranoid
Chorus
Steal me deal me any way you heal me
Maim me tame me you can never change me
Love me like me come ahead and fight me
Please me tease me go ahead and eat me

Garbage
The World Is Not Enough
Aah-ah (x4)
I know how to hurt
I know how to kill
I know what to show
And what to conceal
I know when to talk
And I know when to touch
No one ever died
From wanting too much
Chorus:
The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start my love
And if you're strong enough
Together we can take the world apart my love
Aah-ah (x2)
People like us
Know how to survive
There's no point in living
If you can't feel the life
We know when to kiss
And we know when to kill
If we can't have it all
Then nobody will
Chorus
(I) I feel sick
(I) I feel scared
(I) I feel ready
And heaven prepare
Chorus
The world is not enough (x2)
They know where'll be enough
The world is not enough

Look At Me
Good looking bad tasting
Full-bodied butt wasted
Loose living tight-fitting
What you see ain't what you are getting
Big make-up little break-up
She wants it he's got it
Cold blooded hot gossip
Superficial expectations
Chorus:
Look at me you can take it all because this face is free
Maybe next time use your eyes and
Look at Me
I'm a drama queen if that's your
thing baby I can even do reality
Fake honey real plastic
Stupid cupid fantastic
Queer thinking straight talking
What you see ain't what you are getting
Fast loving slow moving
No rhythm but I'm grooving
Old feeling new beginning
Superficial expectations
Chorus
Sometimes I don't recognize my own face
I look inside my eyes and find disgrace
My little white lies tell a story
I see it all it has no glory hah (laugh)
Chorus
Come on and look at me
This face is free
I'm your fantasy
So who d'you wanna be
Not what you see
I'm a drama queen if that's your thing
Come on & look at me
I'm your fantasy
This face is free
Come on & look at me
So who do you wanna be
This face is free

And I’d give up forever to touch you
‘Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You’re the closest to heaven that I’ll ever be
And I don’t want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
‘Cause sooner or later it’s over
I just don’t want to miss you tonight
Chorus:
And I don’t want the world to see me
‘Cause I don’t think that they’d understand
When everything’s made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can’t fight the tears that ain’t coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know you’re alive
Chorus x3
I just want you to know who I am

Lord Of the Boards
I got the snowboard under my feet
I can fly so high I can
Fall so deep
But who do I see comin' up the track?
A little green man with his snowboard on his back
Singing: And now I'm flying like an angel to the sun
My feet are burning and I grab into another world
Chorus:
With the lords of the boards
You'll come and get around
With the lords of the boards
You'll come and get around
With the lords of the boards, go mad like a clown
I can stay behind him if I can
I wanna be a little more than an "also-ran"
Through every curve he's got me beat
And maybe's time that I accept defeat
Chorus
Guano
Apes
Open Your Eyes
Hide your face forever
dream and search forever
Have you ever been for sale?
when your isms get smart
oh so selfish and mindless
with that comment in your eye
Do you think you are hard?
really harder than the other
man you're acting cold
if you are not in charge
Don't split your mentality
without thinking twice
your voice has got no reason
now is the time to face your lies
Chorus:
Open your eyes
open your mind
proud like a god
don't pretend to be blind
trapped in yourself break out instead
beat the machine that works in your head
Will you offer me some tricks
if I ever need them
would you go into that room
if I call 'em
Do you think that you are better
really better than the rest
realize there's a problem
I know that you can give your best
Have you ever had a dream?
or is life just a trip?
a trip without chances
a chance to grow up quick
Chorus
Hide your face forever
dream and search forever
night and night you feel nothing
there's no way outside of my land
Chorus

Rain
I'm alone
Can't wait until I feel your rain
So unreal
Can't find another place of your rain
I believe
I still believe in your warm rain
I'm alone
Can't sleep until I feel your rain
How can I find
Love, Faith and Trust inside of your rain
So unreal, can't find another place of your rain
I believe
I still believe in your warm rain
So untrue
Help me to find through your warm rain
Chorus:
I send out my wishes
You gave me promises
Why don't you feel the same
(I'm sad, I feel like a little child,
Somebody left, there is no rain)
Oh no, I'm waiting
How about your rain?
I can't believe
I still believe in your rain
Like in heaven
I can't wait until I feel your rain
So where's your life
Who's living the rest of your life
I can't, I can't, I can't live this life
I can't live this life
I can't see in your eyes
Can't change it, no more tries
Leave everyone with a smile
And you're sad, you feel like a little child
Somebody's left there is no rain
Chorus
Hole
Celebrity Skin
Oh make me over I'm all I want to be
A walking study in demonology
Chorus:
Hey, so glad you could make it
Yeah, now you really made it
Hey, so glad you could make it now
Oh look at my face my name is might have been
My name is never was my name's forgotten
Chorus
When I wake up in my makeup it's too early for that dress
Wilted and faded somewhere in Hollywood
I'm glad I came here with your pound of flesh
No second billing ‘cause you're a star now
Oh Cinderella, they aren't sluts like you
Beautiful garbage beautiful dresses
Can you stand up or will you just fall down?
You better watch out what you wish for
It better be worth it so much to die for
Chorus
When I wake up in my makeup
Have you ever felt so used up as this?
It's all so sugarless hooker, waitress, model, actress
Oh just go nameless
Honeysuckle she's full of poison
She obliterated everything she kissed
Now she's fading somewhere in Hollywood
I'm glad I came here with your pound of flesh
You want a part of me
Well I'm not selling cheap
No I'm not selling cheap
Janet
Jackson
Again
I heard from a friend today
And she said you were in town
Suddenly the memories
Came back to me in my mind
Chorus:
How can I be strong
I’ve asked myself
Time and time I’ve said
That I’ll never fall in love with you again
A wounded heart you gave
My soul you took away
Good intentions you had many
I know you did
I came from a place that hurts
And God knows how I’ve cried
And I never want to return
Never fall again
Making love to you
Felt so good and ooh so right
Chorus
So here we are alone again
Didn’t think I’d come to this
And to know it all began
With just a little kiss
I’ve come to close to happiness
To have it swept away
Don’t think I can take the pain
To never fall again
Kinda late in the game
And my heart is in your hands
Don’t you stand there and then tell me
You love me
Then leave again
‘Cause I’m falling in love with you again
Hold me hold me
Don’t ever let me go
Say it just one time
Say you love me
God knows I do
Love you again
Janet
Jackson
Together Again
There are times when I look above and beyond
There are times when I feel your love around me baby

When I feel that I don't belong draw my strength from the words you said

Chorus:
Everywhere I go every smile I see

Cause I can see your star shinin' down on me
Good times we'll share again makes me wanna dance
Say it loud and proud all my love's for you

Chorus
Good times we'll share again makes me wanna dance.
Say it loud and proud all my love's for you
There are times when I look above and beyond
There are times when I feel your smile upon me baby
I'll never forget my baby
What I'd give just to hold you close
As on Earth, in Heaven, we will be together baby
Together again my baby 'cause

Attaccami La Spina
Il mio nome é Lorenzo
potrebbe non aver senso
ma da quando sono nato
dico quello che penso
dico quello che vedo
mi guardo in giro
utilizzo questo ritmo nero
e funky e duro
e carico di bassi
e su di lui io costruisco sintassi
e frasi e storie
strada dove vivo
muovi la mano con la quale io scrivo
e dammi la carica dammi l'energia
molta cattiveria poca melodia
un due tre VIA
un due tre VIA
questa non vuole essere
una forma di poesia
ma é rap semplicemente
senza pretese
un suono e una parola che arriva palese
e ti muove
e non c'é discussione
non é la musica che fa la rivoluzione
al massimo può essere
una colonna sonora
un modo per accendere
un passaparola
microfono si accende
va su l'adrenalina
attaccamilaspina
chiamala come ti pare
chiamala arte chiamala chiasso
questa é la mia parola
che si fonde col basso
é il suono cittadino del rap e del funky
e no che no ti stanchi...
ritmo e parola pane e companatico
supercalifragilisti suono
molto pratico e violento
al cento per cento
muove la mia dialettica
con il divertimento
e mi fa venire voglia di dire
Alza alza
ascolta il suono del basso
che incalza
la musica che faccio mi serve
come scudo
mi barrico dietro al microfono
per non sentirmi nudo
di fronte alla mia insicurezza
non ho né presunzione
né manie di grandezza
non faccio né comizi
né falsa demagogia
io sono un accumulatore di energia
che poi ritorna fuori
sotto forma di adrenalina
facci vedere cosa sai fare
facci sentire cosa sai fare
so fare poco, ma ciò che faccio
provo a farlo bene.
Semino il seme
del frutto raro dello stare insieme
organizzo feste in giro
per la mia nazione
sono un guerriero
della comunicazione
la musica va avanti
e io gli vado appresso
se pure questo ritmo
sembra sempre lo stesso
é qui che io mi sento
come fossi a casa mia
io sono un accumulatore d'energia
che poi ritorna fuori
sotto forma d'adrenalina
...attaccamilaspina

Bella
Gira gira il mondo
E gira il mondo e giro te
Mi guardi e non rispondo
Perché risposta non c'é
Nelle parole
Bella
Come una mattina
D'acqua cristallina
Come una finestra che mi illumina il cuscino
Calda come il pane
Ombra sotto un pino
Mentre ti allontani stai con me forever
Lavoro tutto il giorno
E tutto il giorno penso a te
E quando il pane é sforno
Lo tengo caldo per te
Chiara come un ABC
Come un lunedì
Di vacanza dopo un anno di lavoro
Bella
Forte come un fiore
Dolce di dolore
Bella come il vento
Che t'ha fatto bella amore
Gioia primitiva
Di saperti viva
Vita piena giorni e ore
Batticuore
Pura dolce mariposa
Nuda come sposa
Mentre ti allontani stai con me forever
Bella
Come una mattina
D'acqua cristallina
Come una finestra che mi illumina il cuscino
Calda come il pane
Ombra sotto un pino
Come un passaporto con la faccia di un bambino
Bella come un tondo
Grande come il mondo
Calda di scirocco
E fresca come tramontana
Tu come la fortuna
Tu così opportuna
Mentre ti allontani stai con me forever
Bella come un'armonia
Come l'allegria
Come la mia nonna in una foto da ragazza
Come una poesia
Oh Madonna mia
Come la realtà che incontra la mia fantasia
Jovanotti
Chissà se stai dormendo
Hai 18 anni e quell'aria da signora ti sta anche male
e non ci credere quando ti dicono che sei speciale
i complimenti costano poco e certe volte non valgon di più
quello che sei dove vai ciò che vuoi
lo sai soltanto tu
e non ti mettere tutto quel trucco che ti sta male
a me mi piaci perché sei dolce quando sei normale
quando rinunci ai comportamenti da fotomodella
e mi riempi la faccia di baci e mi accarezzi la pelle
quando mi dici dai spegni la luce che mi vergogno
quando sei lì che ti trema la voce e a me mi sembra un sogno
Chorus:
Ti vedo scritta su tutti i muri
ogni canzone mi parla di te
e questa notte questa città mi sembra bellissima
ti vedo scritta su tutti i muri
ogni canzone mi parla di te
e questa notte questa città mi sembra bellissima
chissà se stai dormendo
Sei maggiorenne oggi eh
e che cosa è cambiato
che puoi firmare le giustificazioni
quando avrai "bigiato"
ma nella scuola quella senza i libri
non ti serve a niente
perché da oggi devi stare attenta a tutta questa gente
che ti riempie la testa di cose di facce e di miti
che non potrai veramente sapere a cosa sono serviti
quindi bambina non credere a niente
che non sia amore
(quindi bambina non credere a niente
che non sia amore)
Chorus
A cosa stai pensando
Chissà se stai dormendo
Da quando abbiamo fatto l'amore ci penso spesso
a quanto è bello quando il sentimento si sposa col sesso
sarà stato il destino
a volte penso vorrei lo sai essere stato il primo
e poi ci penso e alla fine è lo stesso perché
perché tanto non l'hai mai fatto come l'hai fatto con me
Chorus
A cosa stai pensando
Chissà se stai dormendo
Chissà se stai dormendo
Jovanotti
L’Ombelico Del Mondo
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo…
e' qui che si incontrano facce strane di una bellezza un po' disarmante
pelle di ebano di un padre indigeno e occhi smeraldo come il diamante
facce meticce di razze nuove come il millenio che sta iniziando
questo e' l'ombelico del mondo e noi stiamo gia' ballando
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo...
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo dove non si sa dove si va a finire
e risalendo dentro se stessi alla sorgente del respirare
e' qui che si incontrano uomini nudi con un bagaglio di fantasia
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo senti che sale questa energia
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo...
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo e' qui che c'e' il pozzo dell'immaginazione
dove convergono le esperienze e si trasformano in espressione
dove la vita si fa preziosa e il nostro amore diventa azioni
dove le regole non esistono esistono solo le eccezioni
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo...
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo e' qui che nasce l'energia
centro nevralgico del nuovo mondo e' qui che parte ogni nuova via
dalle provincie del grande impero sento una voce che si sta alzando
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo e noi stiamo gia' ballando
Questo e' l'ombelico del mondo...
Jovanotti
Per la vita che verrà
Se rimaniamo insieme
Potremo anche volare
Potremo attraversare questo mare
Se rimaniamo insieme
Nelle diversità
Insieme scopriremo la nostra unicità
Se noi si resta insieme
Saremo la continuità
Se rimaniamo insieme sarà vera libertà
Per la vita che verrà, per la vita che verrà
Tu non sarai mai sola
Se rimaniamo insieme
Se ci diciamo tutto
Se insieme seminiamo
Insieme coglieremo il frutto
Se noi si resta insieme
Sarà una meraviglia
Se rimaniamo insieme
Saremo una famiglia
Per la vita che verrà, per la vita che verrà
Tu non sarai mai sola
Sotto questo cielo
Tu non sarai mai sola
Sotto questo cielo
Noi rimarremo insieme
Se noi ci capiremo
Se ci perdoneremo
Gli sbagli che faremo
Noi rimarremo insieme
Se avremo volontà
Se riusciremo insieme
A darci libertà
Per la vita che verrà, per la vita che verrà
Tu non sarai mai sola
Sotto questo cielo
Io non sarò mai solo
Sotto questo cielo
Per la vita che verrà, per la vita che verrà
Tu non sarai mai sola, mai

Per Te
è per te che sono verdi gli alberi
e rosa i fiocchi in maternità
è per te che il sole brucia al luglio
è per te tutta questa città
è per te che sono bianchi i muri
e la colomba vola
è per te il 13 dicembre
è per te la campanella a scuola
è per te ogni cosa che c'é ninna na ninna e
è per te che a volte piove a giugno
è per te il sorriso degli umani
è per te un'arranciata fresca
è per te lo scodinzolo dei cani
è per te il colore delle foglie
la forma strana delle nuvole
è per te il succo delle mele
è per te il rosso delle fragole
è per te ogni cosa che c'è ninna na ninna e
è per te il profumo delle stelle
è per te il miele e la farina
è per tel il sabato nel centro
le otto di mattina
è per te la voce dei cantanti
la penna dei poeti
è per te una maglietta a righe
è per te la chiave dei segreti
è per te ogni cosa che c'è ninna na ninna e
è per te il dubbio e la certezza
la forza e la dolcezza
è per te che il mare sa di sale
è per te la notte di natale
è per te ogni cosa che c'è ninna na ninna e
Jovanotti
Questa È La Mia Casa
O signore dell'universo ascolta questo figlio disperso
che ha perso il filo e non sa dov'è
e che non sa neanche più parlare con te
ho un Cristo che pende sopra il mio cuscino
e un Buddha sereno sopra il comodino
conosco a memoria il Cantico delle Creature
grandissimo rispetto per le mille sure del Corano
c'ho pure un talismano
che me l'ha regalato un mio fratello africano
e io lo so che tu da qualche parte ti riveli
che non sei solamente chiuso dietro ai cieli
e nelle rappresentazioni umane di te
a volte io ti sento in tutto quello che c'è
e giro per il mondo tra i miei alti e bassi
e come pollicino lascio indietro dei sassi
sui miei passi per non dimenticare
la strada che ho percorso
fino ad arrivare qua e ora dove si va
adesso si riparte per un'altra città
Voglio andare a casa
(la casa dov’è?)
la casa dove posso stare in pace con te
o Signore dei viaggiatori ascolta
questo figlio immerso nei colori
che crede che la luce sia sempre una sola
che si distende sulle cose e le colora
di rosso di blu di giallo di vita
dalle tonalità di varietà infinita
ascoltami
proteggimi
ed il cammino quando è buio illuminami
sono qua in giro per la città
e provo con impegno a interpretare
la realtà
cercando il lato buono delle cose
cercandoti in zone pericolose
ai margini di ciò che è convenzione
di ciò che è conformismo
di ogni moralismo
yeahhh
e il mondo mi somiglia nelle sue contraddizioni
mi specchio nelle situazioni
e poi ti prego
di rivelarti sempre in ciò che vedo
io so che tu mi ascolti anche se a volte non ci credo
voglio andare a casa
la casa è dove posso stare in pace con te
o Signore della mattina che bussa
sulle palpebre quando mi sveglio
mi giro e mi rigiro sopra il mio giaciglio e poi
faccio entrare il mondo dentro me
e dentro al mondo entro fino a notte
barriere confini paure serrature
cancelli dogane e facce scure
sono arrivato qui attraverso mille incroci
di uomini di donne di occhi e di voci
il gallo che canta e la città si sveglia
ed un pensiero vola giù alla mia famiglia
e poi si allarga fino al mondo intero
e poi su vola alto fino al cielo
il sole la luna e marte e giove
saturno coi suoi anelli e poi le stelle nuove
e quelle anziane piene di memoria
che con la loro luce hanno fatto la storia
gloria a tutta l'energia che c'è nell'aria
Questa è la mia casa
(la casa dov’è?)
la casa dove posso portar pace
Questa è la mia casa
(la casa dov’è?)
la casa dove posso stare in pace con te
Jovanotti
Ragazzo Fortunato
Se io potessi sarei sempre in vacanza
Se io fossi capace scriverei il cielo in una stanza
Ma se devo dirla tutta qui non è il paradiso
Ma all’inferno delle verità io mento col sorriso
Problemi zero, problemi a non finire
Un giorno sembra l’ultimo, un altro è da impazzire
Ma se devo dirla tutta qui non è il paradiso
Ma all’inferno delle verità io mento col sorriso
Di dieci cose fatte
Te n’è riuscita mezza
E dove c’è uno strappo
Non metti mai una pezza
Di dieci cose fatte
Te n’è riuscita mezza
E dove c’è uno strappo
Non metti mai una pezza
Chorus:
Sono un ragazzo fortunato
Perché mi hanno regalato un sogno
Sono fortunato perché
Non c’è niente che ho bisogno
E quando viene sera e tornerò da te
È andata com’è andata
La fortuna è di incontrarti ancora
Sei bella come il sole
A me mi fai impazzire oh
Sei bella come il sole
Ah a me mi fai impazzire eh
Siddharta me l’ha detto che conta solo l’amore
Che tutto quel che ti serve può stare dentro al cuore
Ma se devo dirla tutta qui non è il paradiso
Ma all’inferno delle verità io mento col sorriso
Di dieci cose fatte
Te n’è riuscita mezza
E dove c’è uno strappo
Non metti mai una pezza
Di dieci cose fatte
Te n’è riuscita mezza
E dove c’è uno strappo
Non metti mai una pezza
Chorus
Sei bella come il sole
A me mi fai impazzire oh
Sei bella come il sole
Ah a me mi fai impazzire eh
Chorus
Jovanotti
Serenata Rap
Se t'incontro
per strada non riesco a parlarti
mi si bloccano le parole non riesco a guardarti negli occhi
mi sembra di impazzire se potessi amplificare
il battito del mio cuore sentirete un batterista
di una band in metallo pesante
ed é per questo che sono qui davanti
perché mi viene molto più facile cantarti una canzone
magari che la sentano i muri e le persone
piuttosto che telefonarti e dirti tutto faccia a faccia
rischiando di fare una figuraccia
sono timido ma l'amore mi dà coraggio
per dirti che da quando io ti ho visto
é sempre maggio
e a maggio il mondo é bello e invitante di colori
ma ancora sugli alberi ci sono solo fiori
che prima o poi si dice diverranno pure frutti
e allora tu che fai? golosamente aspetti
aspetti che quel desiderio venga condiviso
io sono qui davanti che ti chiedo un sorriso
Affacciati alla finestra amore mio
Affacciati al balcone rispondimi al citofono
sono venuto qui col giradischi e col microfono
insieme al mio complesso per cantarti il sentimento
e se tu mi vorrai baciare sarò contento
e questa serenata é la mia sfida col destino
vorrei che per la vita noi due fossimo vicino
Una serenata rap
per dirti che di te
mi piace come mi guardi mi piace come sei con me
mi piace quel tuo naso che s'intona con il mondo
mi piace il tuo sedere così rotondo
da rendere satellite ogni essere vivente
mi piaci perché sei intelligente
si vede dalle tue mani come le muovi
mi provochi pensieri e sentimenti sempre nuovi
nei tuoi fianchi sono le alpi nei tuoi seni le dolomiti
mi piace quel tuo gusto nello scegliere i vestiti
quel tuo essere al di sopra delle mode del momento
sei un fiore che é cresciuto sull'asfalto e sul cemento
Affacciati alla finestra amore mio (x3)
per te da questa sera ci sono io
Serenata rap serenata metropolitana
mettiti con me non sarò un figlio di puttana
non ci credere alle cose che ti dicono di me
sono tutti un pò invidiosi chissà perché
io non ti prometto storie di passioni da copione
di cinema, romanzi e che ne so di una canzone
io ti offro verità corpo anima e cervello
amore solamente amore solo solo quello
Affacciati alla finestra amore mio (x3)
per te da questa sera ci sono io
Amor che a nullo amato amar perdona porco cane
lo scriverò sui muri e sulle metropolitane di questa città
milioni di abitanti che giorno dopo giorno
ignorandosi vanno avanti
e poi chissà perché perché chissà per come
nessuno sa perché perché chissà per come
due sguardi in un momento sovrappongono un destino
palazzi, asfalto e smog si trasformano in giardino
persone consacrate dallo scambio di un anello
e un monolocale che diventerà un castello
Affacciati alla finestra amore mio
Nei tuoi fianchi sono le alpi nei tuoi seni le dolomiti
mi piace quel tuo gusto nello scegliere i vestiti
questo essere al di sopra delle mode del momento
sei un fiore che é cresciuto sull'asfalto e sul cemento
Affacciati alla finestra amore mio (x6)
per te da questa sera ci sono io
Jovanotti
Un Raggio Di Sole
Che lingua parli tu se dico vita dimmi cosa intendi
e come vivi tu se dico forza attachi o ti difendi
t’ho detto amore e tu m’hai messo in gabbia
m’hai scritto sempre ma era scritto sulla sabbia
t’ho detto eccomi e volevi cambiarmi
t’ho detto basta e m’hai detto non lasciarmi
abbiamo fatto l’amore e mi hai detto mi dispiace
mi hai lanciato una scarpa col tacco e poi abbiamo fatto pace
abbiam rifatto l’amore e ti è piaciuto un sacco
e dopo un po’ mi hai lanciato la solita scarpa col tacco
gridandomi di andare e di non tornare più
io ho fatto finta di uscire e tu hai acceso la tv
e mentre un comico faceva ridere io ti ho sentito che piangevi
allora son tornato ma tanto già lo sapevi
che tornavo da te
Chorus:
Senza niente da dire senza tante parole
ma con in mano un raggio di sole per te
che sei lunatica
niente teorie con te soltanto pratica
praticamente amore ti porto in dono un raggio di sole per te
un raggio di sole per te
che cosa pensi tu se dico amore dimmi cosa intendi
siamo andati al mare e mi parlavi di montagna
abbiamo preso una casa in città e sogni la campagna
con gli uccellini le anatre e le oche
i delfini i conigli le api e papaveri e le foche
e ogni tanto ti perdo o mi perdo nei miei guai
ho lo zaino già pronto all’ingresso
ma poi tanto tu già lo sai
che ritorno da te
Chorus
Che ritorno da te
senza niente da dire senza tante parole
ma con in mano un raggio di sole per te
un raggio di sole per te (x6)
Jovanotti
Voglio di più
Voglio un panino gigante con dentro un milione di cose
voglio madonna per portarmel’ a letto
e poi mandarle un milione di rose
voglio una vasca piena di coca cola
e mentre nuoto voglio bere e abbronzarmi
voglio telefonare al presidente americano
e al telefono voglio sfogarmi
voglio un aereo che dico una nave
che dico uno shuttle un sottomarino
voglio sposarmi con mille ragazze e per ognuna io voglio un bambino
voglio un casco pieno di panna montata
e me lo voglio poi mettere in testa
e poi mangiare la panna montata mangiarla tutta fin quantane resta
voglio essere magro coi muscoli in mostra
voglio vestiti di tutti stilisti
voglio vincere l'oscar e il telegatto voglio il leone dei premi mai visti
e conoscere i libri a memoria e le parole di mille canzoni
voglio volare sopra al traffico del centro di Milano
voglio richiudere con una toppa il buco dell'ozono
voglio la pace lungo le mie strade la voglio pure tra i miei genitori
voglio vincere tutte le guerre voglio sentire ancora più rumori
voglio andare al numero uno della classifica dei cannonieri
voglio allenare la nazionale italiana
voglio essere il generale dei carabinieri
voglio conoscere che tempo fa domani
voglio sapere cosa pensa la gente
voglio conoscere gli angoli oscuri della mia anima
e della mia mente voglio voglio voglio voglio l'erba voglio
voglio conoscere gli extra terrestri voglio vederci con le luci spente
voglio scoprire dei buoni maestri
voglio abolire la pena di morte in ogni angolo dell'universo
voglio restare per sempre bambino e ritrovare le cose che ho perso
voglio parlare in tutte le lingue voglio una tele con mille canali
voglio il perdono di tutti i peccati voglio parlare con gli animali
voglio sapere chi ha sparato per primo
voglio cantare più intonato di Mina
voglio sapere chi è nato per primo l'uovo o la gallina?
voglio pagare mille miliardi di tasse
voglio scoprire un pozzo di petrolio nel mio giardino
e una sorgente di acqua gasata dal rubinetto del mio lavandino
voglio che Gorbaciov sia fatto papa e che mia sorella trovi lavoro
voglio capelli lunghissimi e lisci
voglio trovare sia un amico e pure un tesoro
voglio vivere tutta la vita (x3)
non mi basta mai
