Papa
You think you've become such a man, But you don't impress me. You tell me stories from the can, But you can't arrest me. You thought that I would be your fan But you're just like the rest and, I'm all you hope to be, And way, way more. -- So you're the man in here. You say you're the man in here. You don't look like a man to me. And here's some pa turn of advice for free, PUNK -- Don't try to dictate what I'm to do, Don't even think about it. But those who try and survive a few, Might think about it. I ain't got time for barbie-dolls like you, Just think about it. You are just a poser in some fancy clothes. -- So you're the man in here. You say you're the man in here. You don't look like a man to me. You need money you run to daddy. And I am the papa. I'm the father of you all. I am the papa. I'm the father of you all. Aowwww. -- SOLO -- This is my place this is my home, I put my mark on it. So don't try to teach me my own song, 'Cause I'm the best at it. I've been running things for way to long, And I was made for it. You push me around, you'll go down, I'll put the weight of the planet on your shoulders. And you're not a man to me. You'll never be a man to me. I know you wanna be, But you'll go from wannabe to has been. Cause I am the papa, I'm the father of you all. I am the papa, Don't fire me up cause you don't know what you've started. I am the papa, I'm the father of you all. I am the papa I'm your great great grand motherfucker. WOW. Oh oh oh I am the papa oh oh oh oh. Oh oh oh I am the papa. |

This feeling stings like a papercut
a constant draft from the door I can't shut my legs are sleeping, my body is weeping, I am searching. An insatiable lust that can not be fulfilled an annoying bug that I can never quite kill a human disorder a life on the border, a lack of a plan. There is something lurking in the back of my mind (inexplicably gone from my) my mind (inexplicably gone) vital information that can not be found. I'm left here stripped to my own free will my mind is set on this preverbial kill as I fill my days with egocentric waste never evolving. This powerful urge that is pulling me forth a constant drive I am unable to ignore leaving my sleepless, holding my breath as my heart is pacing. There is something lurking in the back of my mind (inexplicably gone from my) my mind (inexplicably gone) vital information that can not be found But I just can't leave it alone, found, but I just can't leave it alone, found (inexplicably gone from my mind) can't be found (inexplicably gone from my mind) can't be found (inexplicably gone from my mind) no, it can't be found (inexplicably gone) There is something lurking in the back of my mind vital information that can not be found x2 But I just can't leave it alone, found, but I just can't leave it alone, found but I just can't leave it alone, no it can't be found but I just can't leave it alone (inexplicably gone from my mind) can't leave it alone (inexplicably gone) Can't leave it alone (inexplicably gone from my mind) can't leave it alone |

Verse 1
They are rock'n'roll rebels With tea in their bourbon bottles All tightly dressed up in leather and shades And they are cute streamline boys With diamonds in their eyes suckers I wanna wear a guitar and be rough 'cause it's in now days Enough!! Chorus But I'm not like the others I just can't be bothered I won't think the way they do I won't think the way they do I'm not omotible, anti controllable I won't think the way they do Verse2 They want to conquer the world With nothing but flashy tattoos And I'm a bit surprised that so few see through What they're trying to do 'Cause they all went shopping in the rock-star store A copy of the big thing the week before They get a hit then they make one more Repeat the formula and make me bored Enough!! Chorus But I'm not like the others I just can't be bothered I won't think the way they do I won't think the way they do I'm not omotible, anti controllable I won't think the way they do I won't think the way they do I just won't think the way they do Bridge Our feeble are tent But no one else seems to ask why They still haven't changed And no one seems to give it a try I'm not like the others I won't think the way they do I won't think the way they do I'm not omotible, anti controllable I won't think the way they do I won't think the way they do I won't think they way they do I won't think they way they do / anti controllable I won't think they way they do / not omotible I won't thing the way they do / anti controllable I won't think they way they do / not omotible Just won't think the way they do / anti' |

She never belived,
I'd do anything to hurt her She never belived, that I could do anything wrong She firmly belived, but some belives can be fatal And now she is sound asleep In other times I would have held her forever In other times I would have gone by the book But rule number one, never go crazy together And now she is sound asleep She's so peaceful So peaceful So peaceful Seconds before the storm She's a godess, her eyes are two devine standards She's a godess, her lips are works of art She's a godess, her precense gives hungry dogs maners But now she is sound asleep She's so peaceful So peaceful So peaceful Seconds before the storm I wanna.. I wanna.. Crush her fingers one by one Bite her lips until their gone Smash her kneecaps just for fun Leave the eyes out by the sun (x2) Wow.. What has she done to me To rewoke such fantasies Why would I get to be And she's so peaceful So peaceful So peaceful She is so peaceful So peaceful She is so peaceful Seconds before the storm She is so peaceful She is so peaceful (There is just too much wrong in these lyrics....) |

Between the lines of a rough sound
I walk gravely with my head down If I'd known how to arise up from this maze of a special kind I would have killed just to get somewhere It's just a dream to get out of here and though I know which one to blame I can't even speak the lousy name All paralyzed from neck and down no way to cure this scapegoat of mine I tried to scream, but I can't make a sound I'm missing in stereo I have the lines, but I've lost them and when I try to come back again every word was like a flie impossible to catch as they vanished in the sky All paralyzed from neck and down no way to cure this scapegoat of mine I tried to scream, but I can't make a sound I'm missing in stereo missing in stereo I can't reach out even if I wanted can't get help if it was what I wanted give me the push I want to be wanted All paralyzed from neck and down no way to cure this scapegoat of mine I tried to scream, but I can't make a sound I'm missing in stereo (x2) (missing in stereo) missing in stereo (missing in stereo) I'm missing in stereo (missing in stereo) I'm missing in stereo |

I'm eating grain
as cakes I cough them out again and to tell you honestly I'd like to do this peacefully but they grab my back and they turn the speed to level hurricane I am falling out in a streetlike bed (Chorus) On my way down they hit my hands up with a stick and when I lay down On my way down they hit my hands up with a stick and when I lay down Tenderly, the slicing of a nerve in me and the wasted ways of those who distorts the art into a pose they grab my back they turn the speed to level hurricane I am falling out in a streetlike bed (chorus) On my way down they hit my hands up with a stick and when I lay down (x2) Calmer now left inside a crate of doubt and filled with ease I start to chew in slower pace But then it starts to blow and it turns the speed to level hurricane I am falling out in a streetlike bed (chorus) On my way down they hit my hands up with a stick and when I lay down (x2) On my way down On my way down On my way down, ooooo On my way down (down) On my way down On my way down On my way down On my way! |

I'm alive again:
And thought I'd never be While I was face-down with my big mouth full of dust. She's a killer for my pains, She pulls me from beneath the ground. I speak the way, But she fills the spaces Between my stuttering. And though she wants me to hold her I know I never can own her! Oh She's a wildflower, wildflower, She grows wilder by the hour Reaching for the Sun - She's only just begun. Wildflower, wildflower I go wild while I'm around her Reaching for the Sun... She's alive again: Terrified but smiling, Things are black and white and in colour all at once. She's got fire in her veins, Dangerous but so much fun; And I seize the day, And I fill the spaces Between us that arrange And though she wants me to hold her I know I never can own her! She's a wildflower, wildflower, She grows wilder by the hour Reaching for the Sun - She's only just begun. Wildflower, wildflower I go wild while I'm around her Reaching for the Sun... Wow! Wildflower, wildflower.... She grows wilder by the hour Reaching for the Sun - She's only just begun. Wildflower, wildflower I go wild while around her Reaching for the Su-u-un.... Oh yeah! Woohoohoohoo! Oh yeah! Woohoohoohoo! Wildflower, wildflower I go wilder while around her Reaching, Reaching, Reaching for the Su-u-un.... |

I never thought that what I said
could have so many meanings to her one voice is a harmony I try to say I care but no, it sounds like I don't mean it she thinks I'm a parody And when she won't speak to me she doesn't tell me why I'm supposed to know what I've done wrong and make it right I think she's made of glass she breaks with the lightest touch and cuts me when I try to put her back together I twist myself to the best I can be but I never do enough I always do too much and when she tells me to leave all she wants is for me to stay and when she wants me to stay it's dangerous to leave when she stares at me I go down when that stare hits me I'm wrapped around when she stares I know it won't take long before I crawl The moments of hope are the moments of truth, with weapons laid aside and all is peace and beauty I could go on like that forever but the call was never mine she wins I'm the loser she hears my words like they?re doublecross-designed and every time she breaks she gets that cold and piercing eye when she stares at me I go down when that stare hits me I?m wrapped around when she stares I know it won?t be long before I crawl she's freaking out I need a break anything at all anything at all I need something to calm her down anything at all anything at all anything at all it's been like this for all my life everywhere I go I tend to cause confusion I go for peace but end up with strife the belief in a clear statement is a painful illusion everywhere I stay there's someone asking me to leave and every time I leave there's someone asking me to stay and everywhere someone stares and then again when she stares at me I go down when that stare hits me I'm wrapped around when she stares I know it won't be long before I crawl |
