Hey, I'm the guy there on the wall and I'm all dismembered parts
Yeah, I got not arms or legs: So go ahead and call me - Art! I'm a stick of dynamite and I'm smiling with delight And it's o.k. - 'coz, they all stay away when you need them the most Serving up another dream into everybody's empty heads Stirring up another scene into everybody's empty heads Whipping up another style into everybody's empty heads Hoping that it brings a smile on everybody's vacant face.. And now I'm floating in the sea. 'Coz I'm the guy that lost his job Yeah, I lost my arms & legs, so go ahead and call me: Bob!! I'm a stick of dynamite and I'm smiling with delight And it's o.k. - 'coz, they all stay away when you need them the most Serving up another dream into everybody's empty heads Stirring up another scene into everybody's empty heads Whipping up another style into everybody's empty heads Hoping that it brings a smile on everybody's vacant face.. |

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... |

Rich & free, and a life beyond worries
Time like words can be wasted too much Tried to cut his own wrist with an electric razor It's a disease no doctor will touch Maybe it's now or forever, now or forever See that's how when you point your finger That everytime that you throw dirt, you lose a little ground What not to do & how not to do it Back when being wild, still meant drinking beers It's written on the back of his shirt: He don't have to work! You can call him all day - But he just won't hear... Maybe it's now or forever, now or forever See that's how when you point your finger If later is never, then now is forever, now or forever Every time you throw dirt, you lose a little ground Now or forever, I know I'm not wiser & I'm not better But why do you point your finger Everytime you throw dirt, you lose a little ground Now or forever, now or forever See that's how when you point your finger That everytime that you throw dirt, you lose a little ground |

An empty plate for love & hate, so hungry like they never ate
And if you fight, noone fights back - 200 killings Now I know that death is wearing black A hand that holds me without strength - a hand that touches me without weight The troops of love are flying out - very angry, very loud - You can see it from the air - when you get hit, You don't know where, and nothings seems fair A hand that holds me without strength a hand that touches me without weight And with no flag left to defend - a hand that pushes me Anything as long as you touch me - Touch me - touch me - touch me |
