RIDING WITH SUE We went out riding Me and my girlfriend Sue Riding through the desert Where noone ever gets through We got off our horses And laid down in the sand Suddenly I noticed That we were in Disneyland.. - And I was looking at the sky Looking at the *** above Thinking 'bout the days When we were still in love Sweet, sweet, sweet harmless love... We saw the hills in the distance Their shape was coming clear Her voice was full of tension As she whispered in my ear: - If you take me there I'll make you fly!!

RECONSTRUCDEAD When the fever burns your brain When your heart has got a name And you long for generous days You want a spring in your walk and a smile on your face.. Another day inside the pearl You could have screamed; leaving this world You laugh'n'joke without a care And bear a depression you can see from the air.. Ride the tail of rhyme Break the legs of time - Snap it's spine.. As a statue wearing complicated clothes A monument to power, standing, but on reconstrucdead toes At my feet there's a plate I haven't read.. Apart from that - then I'll be reconstrucdead A tambourine rings in my blood The circus' rolling'n'the cage is locked.. So where's the light - a match that flares - The pot at the end of the rainbow's where Pick your nose as you pick your friends Or spend a life in fear of the end To tell a nodding shrink won't help - So I say to myself: Hey, get a hold on yourself! Ride the tail of rhyme Break the legs of time - Snap it's spine.. As a statue wearing complicated clothes A monument to power, standing, but on reconstrucdead toes At my feet there's a plate I haven't read.. Apart from that - then I'll be reconstrucdead, reconstrucdead.. My eyes are blind My mind is numb But my ears begin to hear - to hear the growing hum Like a statue, jealous of the rush hour I'm reconstrucdead like a monument, a monument to power As a statue wearing complicated clothes Standing high up as a tower now, but still the cracks will - yeah The cracks will show A lifetime of frustration - the things that I can't get Apart from that - then I'll be reconstrucdead Reconstrucdead Reconstrucdead Reconstrucdead 2. BLACK CRICKETS The winter of fortynine had passed A winter of haunt n fear Coz hunger had knocked at the city gate And threatened the pioneers Then low in the east strange clouds appeared And dark became the sun And the courage to fight n win a war Was all of a sudden gone Black crickets By 10 of millions or more Black crickets By 10 of millions or more Until the fields that waved were few Black crickets Crickets by 10 of millions came Like fog on a british coast They swept down from the mountain sides Settled down by their mormon host Then the eldest old man got this bright idea And he called for all the men: We'll build a giant nest & the crickets will fear That the big bird is here again!! Black crickets... They constructed this nest 2 days went by They all prayed that by the end of their work The unexpected guests would fly They saw the nest the vision occured & the dogs would wag their tails The crickets all shouted: Bird is the word! And the insects hit their trail All heads were bowed as they thanked their lord And they reaped while the devil raved Coz their harvest was saved to tons of praise And the pioneers were saved Black crickets... Hundreds of thousands Thousands of millions Millions of billions Billions of trillions Trillions of zillions D.A.Dillions of fantazillions Of black crickets 3. HOME ALONE 5 Gently my eyelids close, I'd rather be good than clever I'd rather have all facts wrong than no reply whatever.. I learned before I could speak with those "being patient eyes" When God created my kind. But he forgot to tell me why So gently my eyelids close.. All alone, at home I sit - I'm very tired of it Burn the midnight oil or pour it on my salad I lost the thread I thought I had... Led by hearts & ears - memory lagging behind No shame being a fool, I got many things on my mind Pick up the phone on first riiiing - I never get out anymore.. There's nowhere to go, but back and there's quicksand outside my door So gently my eyelids close All alone, at home I sit - I'm very tired of it Burn the midnight oil or pour it on my salad I lost the thread I thought I had.. I lost it - I lost it. Yeah! Is that a shadow - or a hole in the floor? And what's that noise outside my door?? Home alone. On my own.. And all alone... 4. SLEEPING MY DAY AWAY Mumbling goodmorning & raising my head A bad breath kiss to my pillow pet I take a look at the day turns & stay in bed Open my eyes when the day have died I turned the world and I slept allright Now my daymare is over I zip my jeans tight Oh lord won't you bless this night... From the pale lips of a youth who lay I'm sleeping my day away And when the night comes to the city I say: I'm sleeping my day away Yeah! With my pale lips in the pillow I say: I'm sleeping my day away After dark is the game I play I'm sleeping my day away I'm sleeping my day away When my dreams begin I'd be proud to be letting you in With a smile on my face I guide our dreamboat in So if you wanna travel along with me You better sleep tight the rest of the day You see I could be a sleeper it's not rest I lack 'Coz I hit the sack when the suns coming back From the pale lips of a youth who lay I'm sleeping my day away And when the night comes to the city I say: I'm sleeping my day away Yeah! With my pale lips in the pillow I say: I'm sleeping my day away That after dark - is the game I play I'm sleeping my day, I'm sleeping my day, I'm sleeping my day I'm sleeping my day away I'm sleeping my day away Yeah!

WRITTEN IN WATER Set out on a laughless day Like a troupe of clowns Peekin' out of a show man's car Through cabbage town... You feel a cold wind blow Through your open mind The end is about to start So you shut it hard... As the weather girl predicts: Conducting the clouds with her stick The day will be clear'n'funny - Before it rains... Written in water Yeah, it's bound to disappear Written in water Down the crater of your ear As long as the flavor lasts In c-h-e-w-i-n-g gum As long as we float around This golf ball sun... The light to replace the day Is ten shades of gray A kiss removes the skin Shows you where you've been Under the ultra-violet ray A rule every fool obeys Hold up your name in fire - Before it rains... Written in water Yeah, it's bound to disappear Written in water Written on a wave of fear.. Written in water Yeah, it's bound to disappear Down-the-velvet-crater-of-your-ee-aa-rrr Yeah, written in water It's bound to disappear Written in water Written on a wave of fear Written in water It's bound to disappear Down the velvet crater of your ear Iiiiiiiiiiiihhjairr!... Written in water 7. IT'S AFTER DARK I'm looking at the sky, I'm trying Not to cry, coz' it's over They're turning down the light It's late now Wave the last Goodbye... Coz it's after dark now And Disneyland is closed We've been served Icecold beer And Walt is our host It's after dark now And Disneyland is closed... The party is over The night is here Let's bring out a toast... 8. LAUGH 'N' A 1/2 I learned politeness on my mother's knee.. I learned by uprightness my number of friends Should increase... When I think about the things I've done... I laugh out loud to noone ... Yeah, to noone.. 'Coz it's so hard to meet the eyes that I see When I try to open up my heart There's something inside me'n'I know it's good... But understanding, it's misunderstood At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2 But I became honest Mr. Mistaken In spite of the curves my smile was makin'... Bumpers and kickers in one big stream I grew up in a life size pinball machine! Yeah! - They're mean!. 'Coz it's so hard to meet the eyes that I see When I try to open up my heart... There's something inside me'n'I know it's good.. But understanding, it's misunderstood At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2 On my behalf There's something inside me and I know it's good... But understanding, it's misunderstood At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2 I tried to fill some silence - 'Coz the silence feels so long.. I knew the ice was gettin' thinner But I kept skating on!.. My mother threw me into this world as a winner But by the light of the yellow beer They tell the jokes I'll never get to hear!! On my behalf There's something inside me and I know it's good.. But understanding, it's misunderstood At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2 On my behalf There's something inside me and I know it's good But understanding, it's misunderstood At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2 At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2. At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2.. At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2... At the end of a smile, there's a laugh'n'a 1/2.... 9. JACKETLESS IN DECEMBER I'm freezing Them I'm letting go You only hear the silent snow Running from it; am I getting weak? What are friends for (?) I only remember: Jacketless in icecold december In a dream, but wide awake Now I know my own mistakes Yeah, from without to withing Now I live with everything Blame another, but the shame is in your mind For what is lost and hard to find The door is closed, to light and truth What are friends for (?) Yeah, I remember: Jacketless in icecold december In a dream... I see now a world of fear through at mist of tears I've been in a very bad mood, as if I knew You always end up empty so full of yourself I can safely say now, even oldest of tricks that exist: That you can still disappoint a pessimist! Yeah, in a dream... lyrics added by Imperator - Modify this lyrics
