1. Me Happy
Thatīs a stupid hat youīre wearing
It doesnīt really match your hair
Did I ever tell you that your breath is worse
Than what you wear
Thatīs exactly what she told him
At least thatīs what he told me
So I guess we could conclude
Theyīre not a happy family
Loveīs not what you see between the legs of the majority
Thatīs a lovely dress youīre wearing
Too bad your figure canīt make it work
When I hear the things you say
I wonder if your brain can work
Thatīs exactly what he told her
At least thatīs what she told me
I scream my calls, I lock my doors
Iīm suddenly filled with apathy
Loveīs not what you see between the legs of the majority
Although, Iīd like to add the game in bed is a necessity
To make me happy
Make me happy
Loveīs not what you see between the legs of the majority
Although, Iīd like to add the game in bed is a necessity
2. Breakfast
I woke up between dawn and night
Thought I heard the voice of mommy
Sounds as if my parents have a fight
So I woke up my brother lying next to me
I wonder why sheīs making all that noise
Better go and check it out
So without trying to breathe only the sound of little feet
We were about to discover what that noise was all about
And as we opened up the door
We saw them lying on the kitchen floor
We were grateful for they both did their best
But we said īhey, there must be an easier way to make break fastī
They both got up real fast
As if they were caught (or something)
And then we understood at last
It was a surprise breakfast they were planning
Mommy stumbled, īlater, kids, youīll understandī
While daddy was busy putting on his pants
We said īwe already do, donīt worry, weīll do the restī
So far for our quest, we made coffee, boiled eggs
We made them breakfast
3. I Smoke A Lot
I smoke a lot
Iīm not talking weed or pot
I smoke the regular stuff
I smoke a lot
And if youīre a smoker too
You are to know sometimes itīs tough
To be in healthy company
People who always say
You smoke a lot
Imagine the amount of money you could save if youīd quit
You smoke a lot
By now youīd have a bike, arenīt you concerned about the kids
Well, of course, sure I am, concerned (a bit)
But about that bike, I could get killed with it
And is that what you really want
(itīs not)
So I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
My god I smoke a lot, and I feel fine
And I feel fine
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
Sometimes itīs great
Sometimes itīs not
But I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
I smoke a lot
4. Walk Away
I will walk away from you
(donīt stop me)
I will walk away from you
(donīt blame me)
I have felt the ugly midget kicking on my knee
I have seen the ugly midget walking over me
I will tell you what Iīve learned
Weīre through as far as Iīm concerned
Break up and just before we do
I will walk away from you
I will walk away from you
(stop me)
I will walk away from you
(blame me)
I have had enough of you
Tell me you hate me too
Or embrace me and forget
What I have said to you
I will tell you what Iīve learned
Weīre one as far as Iīm concerned
Make up and just before we do
I will be walking back to you
Walking back to you
Walking back to you
Walking back to you
Walking back to you
5. Elegia
Oh, god, I havenīt read your book
Iīm sure it was divine
Especially the part where you turned water into wine
Oh, god, I want you to clear my mind
Itīs covered up with dirt
And I want to taste your skin
One time before I taste the earth
Oh, god, I apologize
I didnīt knock when I arrived
Oh, god, I apologize
I didnīt say goodbye last night
Oh, god
Now I guess you have your way
As I taste the earth today
Now I guess you have your way
As I taste the earth today
Now I guess you have your way
As I taste the earth today
Now I guess you have your way
As I taste the earth today
6. My Heart
Not so long ago
We both felt love became a word
No more than that
With sex that felt like wings without a bird
The only thing that we both love
Is in the cradle that we rock
Six hands, six feet, but just one beat
The ticking of the clock
I always heard I could get hurt
(I knew that from the start)
Break my face, my back, my arms, my neck
But please donīt break my heart
Break my face, my back, my arms, my neck
But please donīt break my heart
Solid wood will rot
If you donīt keep it from the rain
We were surprised when we found out
That love feels just like pain
I always heard I could get hurt
I knew that from the start
Break my face, my back, my arms, my neck
But please donīt break my heart
Break my face, my back, my arms, my neck
But please donīt break my heart
7. I Wanna Meet The Man
Iīve been thinking all night about this song
The musicīs okay but I canīt find words to say
I could sing that Iīm a virgin and show my tits
Decree how sex improves the world
In which masturbation is the thing of the day
"Iīm afraid I havenīt got that much to say"
I thought about "hello, fool, I love you"
Or repeat a hundred times "how do you do"
I wanna dance with somebody, hey, I like that sound
But there ainīt nobody humpinī around
I wanna meet the man who wrote these lyrics (he must be great)
I wanna meet the man who wrote these songs
I wanna meet the man
I wanna meet the man
And while I sing these words to you
Thereīs a rat in my kitchen, donīt know what Iīll do
Forget about the rat and sing along
Cause we feel so strong and we canīt go wrong
We walk hand in hand to the promised land
I think I met the man who wrote these lyrics
I guess I have ignored the things he said
I think that I have noticed how expensive perfume
Never covers up a smelly breath
I wanna meet the man
I wanna meet the man
I wanna meet the man
I wanna meet the man
I wanna meet the man
I wanna meet the man
I wanna meet the man
I wanna meet the man
I wanna meet the man
8. What The Hell Is Love
He was not as tall and rather fat
He had a labrador and a lumping cat
Born in a country with a broken heart
He had enough money and a credit card
Told bedtime stories to his teddybear
Gave him lots of hugs and a dress to wear
He had a small apartment (what a lovely sight)
He watched mtv all night
Where the hell was friendship
He must have turned it off
And most of all he wondered what is love
What the hell is love
He enjoyed the silence more and more
As he heard the door slam right next door
He had a fancy parker and a diary
In which he wrote some poetry
And as he went to bed at night
The catīs eyes gave him ample light
To make him lie awake and see
The content of his misery
Where the hell was friendship
He must have turned it off
And most of all he wondered what is love
What the hell is love
Where the hell was friendship
He must have turned it off
And most of all he wondered what is love
What the hell is love
9. I Will Return To You
Today thereīs nothing more to say
But someday Iīll return to you
Today things didnīt go our way
Maybe tomorrow I will return to you
Today Iīd like to slip away from all this pain
Someday, Iīll return to you
Today Iīd like to be a cell inside your vein
Maybe tomorrow I will return to you
Once more Iīd like to put a spider in your bed
For that, I will return to you
I want you to hear the things I never said
For that, I will return to you
Someday, Iīll return to you
Dry the rain inside my head
To hear the things I never said
I will return to you
To be a light beam through a cloud
To laugh at things Iīm singing now
I will, I will return to you
I will return to you, to you
I will return to you
Someday Iīll return to you
I will return to you
Maybe tomorrow I will return to you
10. The Ballad Of Lea & Paul
Paul studied a lot
At least he pretended to
He had too much on his mind
It was too small
To see the beauty of it all
Lea loved him a lot
At least she pretended to
He was always on her mind
She said, paul,
Thereīs a fire in the hall
And when it finally burned the questions
For the answers he had found
He realized it ought to be the other way around
Thereīs a fire burning in the hall
It looks great, I donīt care, let it burn
I donīt care, I donīt care
I donīt care at all
They got married right on the spot
At least I presume they did
I have too much on my mind
To tell you the fall
Of lea and paul
Out in the hall
For the moment that this song has stopped
Theyīll probably be dead
So itīs better maybe wiser
To leave the rest unsaid
Thereīs a fire burning in the hall
It looks great, I donīt care, let it burn
I donīt care, I donīt care
I donīt care at all
Thereīs a fire burning in the hall
It looks great, I donīt care, let it burn
I donīt care, I donīt care
I donīt care at all
I donīt care at all
I donīt care at all
I donīt care at all
I donīt care at all
I donīt care at all
11. Winter
Youīre crying but as long as itīs transparent and not red
Thereīs no real reason to be sad to the people who are
Smiling, always happy, always gay they do not know
That the edges of the mouth can move the other way
Youīre freezing, the ice on which you nearly slipped outside
Is in your body, in your mind, getting warmer you are
Dreaming, quite useless but it feels okay to you
In a world thatīs dreaming too, in a world in which you
Keep on searching for a thing sublime
When all you need is inside of you
Everybodyīs waiting for springtime
Well winter can be cozy too
Cherish the moment, cherish the key
That leads to sane insanity
Cherish incompetence, cherish me
Donīt ever cherish somebody who
Keeps on searching for a thing sublime
When all you need is inside of you
Everybodyīs waiting for springtime
Well winter can be cozy too
12. Laughing As I Pray
As Iīm walking through these streets again
Iīm crawling
And as I try to live my life again
Iīm falling down
Can you pick me up
Can you let it stop
Can you make it go away
Can you pick me up
Can you let it stop
Can you make it go away
Wonīt somebody help me, is it hard
To let me find my way
Wonīt somebody love me (for a start)
Iīm laughing as I pray
Where is the road
I must look at the road
I must pray a little longer
Or laugh a little more
