DON´T LET A GOOD WOMAN DOWN
If you got a woman who wants to be your wife
Don´t just keep her hanging on until someone else arrives
Don´t let a good woman down
Dedicated woman needs a strong man by her side
Something isn´t right if you still cannot decide
Don´t let a good woman down
Woman is a superhero filling up her calendar
Mother lover businessman too many have a broken heart
No don´t let a good woman down
Don´t tell her white lies
She´s trying her best
Like her Mother did
And my Mother did
Like all the sister are doing right now
Around the world
Don´t let a good woman down

HARD AS STONE
You´re in the underground
So many things around you
The rail tracks loud
The sound breaks through
Full or empty seats
The others don’t seem lonely
Then they vanish to the streets
Giddy-up you must hurry
The trip is taking you to the furthest zone
In your mind you´re singing so you don’t feel alone
Wish you were a stone so you could be as hard as one
Wish you were a stone so wouldn´t burn under the Sun
Wish you were a stone so you could sleep under the tree
Wish you were a stone so you could dive into the bottom of the Sea
A destination
Far away from home
Walk away from the station
On cold hard stones
If you would get lost
Will you be found
´Cause some of us are soft
Drowning in the crowd
The trip is taking you to the furthest zone
In your mind you´re singing so you don’t feel alone
Wish you were a stone so you could be as hard as one
Wish you were a stone so wouldn´t burn under the Sun
Wish you were a stone so you could sleep under the tree
Wish you were a stone so you could dive into the bottom of the Sea
Hard as stone
Wish I was as hard as stone, hard
Wish you were a stone so you could be as hard as one
Wish you were a stone so wouldn´t burn under the Sun
Hard as stone, hard as stone
Hard as stone
Wish you were as hard as stone
Hard as stone, hard as stone
Stone hard, hard stone
Stone hard
Stone hard, hard stone
Stone hard

TORN
Laugh as much as you like
I will still be standing
With my bare feet firm on solid ground
I´ve been torn to pieces
Been falling to my knees
I´ve been used up and been fooled around
But I´m still going strong
I will keep moving on
Find out where I belong
Not afraid of going wrong
To walk to the unknown
The unknown
My heart can be broken but by the same token
There is something burning inside that wants to be free
Still I ain´t fallen and I hear life callin´
´Cause the battle is in vain if we´ll never be free
Keep on keep on laughing
I will keep on trudging
Need my soul recharging for this ride
A little pocket money
And a drop of honey
For my morning tea will keep me satisfied
´Cause I´m still going strong
I will keep moving on
Find out where I belong
Not afraid of going wrong
To walk to the unknown
The unknown
My heart can be broken but by the same token
There is something burning inside that wants to be free
Still I ain´t fallen and I hear life callin´
´Cause the battle is in vain if we´ll never be free
My heart can be broken but by the same token
There is something burning inside that wants to be free
Still I ain´t fallen and I hear life callin´
´Cause the battle is in vain if we´ll never be free
´Cause my heart can be broken
´Cause my heart can be broken broken
My heart can be broken but by the same token
There is something burning inside that wants to be free
Still I ain´t fallen and I hear life callin´
´Cause the battle is in vain if we´ll never be free
My heart can be broken but by the same token
There is something burning inside that wants to be free
Still I ain´t fallen and I hear life callin´
´Cause the battle is in vain if we´ll never be free

Where you won´t feel blue
Where the sun always shines
But don´t let it dazzle on you
Hey babe don´t waste your day by being down

Just loosen up enjoy this ride

Hey babe get into the caravan
Hey babe get into the caravan

Laughs are all around all the good time wait for you

LOVER´S NOVELS
You ´d been away
All the night´n day
Why do you make me wait
Why do you treat me this way
There´s something going on
You don´t wanna come home
I´m waiting around
Reading the novels that I found
Lover´s novels on the kitchen table
You say I ain´t right
But how can I be wrong
When you hurt me with lies
I can see it in your eyes
You cannot just pretend
That she is just a friend
A pile of lover´s books
Oh this kitchen has too many cooks
Lover´s novels on the kitchen table
I need you to go
No I don´t want you no more
Too late to make amends
Now every book has it´s end
I feel it in my bones
Someday you´ll be alone
So lonely and depraved
Reading the novels that she gave
Lover´s novels on the kitchen table

ANOTHER WORLD
In another world there´s you and me
See us raising a family
No machines no noise around
Just happiness and love profound
Yellow roses, rosemary
Pick a berry from a tree
Everyone is growing no-one tearing down
If you want to harvest you need to nurture the ground
We´re caring cause we need to grow
We´re dreaming cause we want to know
If we could find another planet
Together we could travel high
The only thing that really matters
Is that we survive
These empty rooms my reality
Co-existence my fantasy
Cause if we could leave here now
We could take off from the ground
We would see this current world is upside down
We´re caring cause we need to grow
We´re dreaming cause we want to know
If we could find another planet
Together we could travel high
The only thing that really matters
Is that we survive
If we could find another planet
Together we could travel high
The only thing that really matters
Is that we survive
There´s another world for lovers in a parallel universe
There´s another world for lovers
There´s another world for lovers in a parallel universe
There´s another world for lovers
There´s another world for lovers in a parallel universe
There´s another world for lovers
Alright people over there
I hope you feeling good
You´re doing good
You´ve been safe and healthy
Let enjoy the music together
Let´s have a good time
And here we go
You can sing with me
And we can do like this, oh yeah here we go
Ou- ou-oo
Ou- ou-oo
Ou- ou-oo
Ou- ou-oo
If we could find another planet
Together we could travel high
The only thing that really matters
Is that we survive
If we could find another planet
Together we could travel high
The only thing that really matters
Is that we survive

SNAKE IN THE GRASS
Standing on my own land
Got a full bucket in my hand
Under a golden yellow Sun
Picking up berries one by one
Not waiting for company
In the garden´s harmony
But what is it´s nature
Dangerous creature
Snake in the grass, snake in the grass
Snake in the grass, snake in the grass
A stranger came in here
I want it to disappear
But it´s moving in
Getting ready to disagree
Charming can be the tongue of a snake
Whispering words that are fake
Bringing back a memory
It was ugly it was mean
Snake in the grass, snake in the grass
Snake in the grass, snake in the grass
`Cause some things are venomous and then you better run
A nasty thing is sneaking in and making your skin crawl
Oh how it bit me hard
I still feel the scars
Got through my skin
Mine was fragile mine was thin
Found myself some medicine
And learned how to grow a skin
This time I won’t let it sting
Defend myself from suffering
´Cause it ain´t
Nothing but a just another
Slimy little motherfucker
Looking for a someone to bite
Snake in the grass, snake in the grass
Snake in the grass, snake in the grass
Snake, snake, snake
Snake, snake, snake
Snake in the grass, snake in the grass
Snake, snake, snake
Snake in the grass, snake in the grass
Snake, snake, snake
´Cause it ain´t
Nothing but a just another
Slimy little motherfucker
Looking for a someone to bite

ROCKING CHAIR
Life´s a journey now I understand
It takes time to learn to know where you stand
Working hours can be so long
You can be right, but you can be wrong
I don´t believe in a new sensation
Keep on heading in a wrong direction
TV making everyone a freaking talent
Steal your money poison the planet
Rock my rocking chair
Rock my rocking chair
Oh, my friend where´s the mystery
Art used to be a speciality
You do your best but life´s unfair
you´ll be lucky if you get your share
When you´re old and you´ve lost your hair
hope you won´t be lost if nobody cares
I don’t want much just to be somewhere
Swinging gently in the rocking chair
Rock my rocking chair
Rock my rocking chair
Rock my rocking chair
Rock my rocking chair
Rock my rocking chair
Rock my rocking chair
Rock my rocking chair
Rock my rocking chair

WEDDING DAY
Past two weeks I´ve been so bored
All these troubles at my door
Was waiting for a lucky kick
But I ended up just feeling sick
My boyfriend was out of town
I was looking for a wedding gown
A thousand is a decent price
My wedding dress no compromise
So he returned took me out
To the fancy city restaurant
But the question never came
I would say that was more than lame
Waiting for a wedding day
When he told me why he was away
He was having a double play
Two Brides-to-be one fiancé
Had to run away from there
From the streets of Mayfair
I am calling off my wedding day
I am calling off my wedding day
Thought I was gonna flip
What an ass, what an ego-trip
He said “sorry if I´ve put you down
But someday you will come around”
Had to return the white gown
In the shop I felt like a clown
´Cause I couldn’t see this coming
Never ever I was cursing
Waited for a wedding day
When he told me why he was away
He´d been having a double play
Two Brides-to-be one fiancé
Had to run away from there
From the streets of Mayfair
I am calling off my wedding day
I am calling off my wedding day
So I posted status single
It is time to start to mingle
Something old something new
Something blue to replace you
Still time for a wedding gown
Ain´t no time for slowing down
Get me another fiancé
Who wouldn´t do anyone but me
Had to run away from there
From the streets of Mayfair
I am calling off my wedding day
I am calling off my wedding day
I am calling off my wedding day

WILDFLOWER
Like a little flower
Floating freely on the Sea
Like a little flower
Floating freely on the Sea
That is my soul
That is my soul
Like a wildflower
The way I want to be
Ou-ou-ou
Every waking hour
Seems to run away from me
I wanna climb up to the tower
Spend my lost moments in peace
´Cause it´s my soul
´Cause it´s my soul
Every waking hour
They all belong to me
Ou-ou-ou
Yes it´s my soul
Yes it´s my soul
Like a wildflower
The way I want to be
Ou-ou-ou
Ou-ou-ou
