One Minute Song
01:00
|
|||
Well my dear
Everything I’ve got to say
In one minute
Is that what you want to hear
My opinion about
Paintings and books
Music, iphones, films and tv crooks
(one minute song)
Politics, gardening, IT and sport
Fashion, food
I think this song
Will be too short

Love Is Good
01:29
|
|||
It doesn’t matter
If you’re here or there
It plays with your heart
And makes you aware
Love is good
Love is good
You can feel it everywhere
It is in the ground and in the air
Love is good
Love is hood
If you believe
In one god or more
There is always someone
To open up a door
Love is good
Love is good
I can sing this same old song
The whole day long
Love is goooood

Stroking my face
Touching my arms
Burning my fears away
Pushing away the clouds
I’m waiting for the sun
To rise
I’m in a tunnel
Driving to the light
I need a friend
To push away the night

She's A Song
01:33
|

She married that actor
Who is a bit of a freak
With his strange religion
And his small physique
Somewhere in Manhattan
That’s where she can be found
A pool filled with beauty
And talent all around
She’s a singer in a band
She’s an actress who understands
She‘s a model
She’s a model
She’s a song
She married this singer
Dreadlocks over his eyes
They had one kid
Before she exposed his lies
Somewhere in France
That’s where she can be found
A pool filled with beauty
And talent all around
She sings in a band
With a name like vest
I follow her around
But I’m not obsessed
Somewhere in Sweden
That’s where she can be found
A pool filled with beauty
And talent all around

The urge to leave
Sometimes it’s strong
Live seems taking place
Somewhere else
I am still here
Where I was born
I can’t seem to get away
Fear of change is in the way
How life will be
How life will be
How exciting life will be
In another city
In a real city
When I drive around the city
Detours on B roads
Houses on the waterfront
I could live there someday
Fear is in my way

It’s a pretty long road
A desolate highway
No one the pass by
Nowhere to go
It’s a small farms village
A midtown city
Labour day and night
In the local mines
Social inequality can be overcome
I am a Bruce Springsteen song
Indian summer
Something is in the air
A sultry kiss
A small affair
I am a Bruce Springsteen song

Everything Changes
01:23
|
|||
Everything changes
Nothing remains the same
You become older
No one to blame
Try to participate
Or stick to the past
It’s up to you
Be first or last
Why do they’ve got
To change everything
My old school
The corner shop
The bookstore I loved
It’s all gone
Why do they’ve got
To change everything
Is it to prevent
Life from getting boring

You Need To Be Nicer
01:27
|
|||
Moody in the morning
Never say hello
Silent like a wall
Another all-time low
You need to be wiser
You need to be nicer
Every day
Every way
I trust you with my secrets
I present you my art
Slippery like Teflon
And you break my heart
I need to be wiser
But you need to be nicer
Every day

Winning the lottery
Making a promotion
My favorite team
winning the soccer league
Rainless vacations
Faithfull politicians
Or a garden without weed
I’ve waited a long time
It will never happen
Feeling happy
A longterm relationship
Is that so much
To ask for
If You Don’t Expect Much (You’ll Be Happy)

You're Losing It
01:25
|
|||
Complicate the complications
on a crawl to crazed
disconnect from reality,
and you’ll be amazed
you’re losing it
you’re losing it
no matter how many pills you take
you’re losing it
you want to flee
disconnect from your family
it’s all a lie
you’re the enemy

Magic Hands - I Remember
01:29
|
|||
lyrics by Complex Is Simple:
Taste in me my own zest, tell me when I'm at my best
These aren't any old chest, lips, legs, hair,
But I'm hardly there without you
Even though I'm bare, without you and your magic hands
. . . Everything tastes bland
lyrics by Capricious Angel:
I remember the salt of your lips
The sweet tang as you sighed
The sugar of your smile
I remember the shape of your hips
The dark glow of your eyes
That made it worthwhile
I remember the dreams that we dreamed
The hopes that we shared
I remember how your eyes lit up
How it seemed you really cared

Why Is The Road So Long
01:31
|
|||
When I drive
I stare at the distance
Avoiding potholes
It’s a bumpy ride
Why is the road so long
My life seems one long drive
Why is the road so long
Try to comply
With the curves in the road
Sometimes it’s a highway
Sometimes an unpaved path
Why is the road so long
My life seems one long drive
Being overtaken
Left and right
Why is the road so long
And when I take a detour
Forced by a traffic jam
I feel freed
Into the wide open
