The last white man pulling the trigger on the last emotion
Not if you care ...
Her soft eyes like a splutter like the sun, a dancer
So clear, dancing, dancing
Are you smart ...
Dancing
Not if you care for me ...
Dancing ... dancing ... dancing ... dancing ... dancing

. . .


When I dream in
When I scream in
When I wipe my
Dirty hands clean

Tananore
Aye oh dey ney da
Tananore
Aye oh dey ney da
Ah no sa ney

When I dream in
When I scream in
When I wipe my
Dirty hands clean

Ah ha ha ha ...
Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha

When I dream in
When I scream in
When I wipe my
Dirty hands clean

Tananore
Aye oh dey ney da
Tananore
Aye oh dey ney da
Ah no sa ney

Ah no sa ney

They will give you what you need
They will run your life
They will get you where they want to
On the cross you'll die
Oh, what a game a fair frame
Consumed into a single flame

When you're blind
When you're kind
The future and the reasons
Will they change the seasons ?

The law has made it very clear
Save your breath for the next try
They will try you with fanatic threats
To make you sigh
Oh, what a game a fair frame
Consumed into a single flame

When you're blind
When you're kind
The future and the reasons
Will they change the seasons ?

They want your face for a magazine
They want my voice for their fears
I want the world's news to be
A different truth in different ears
What a game a fair frame
Consumed into a single flame

When you're blind
When you're kind
The future and the reasons
They won't change the seasons

My funny valentine
Sweet comic valentine
You make me smile with my heart

Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you're my favourite work of art

Is your figure less than Greek ?
Is your mouth a little weak ?
When you open it to speak, are you smart ?

But don't change your hair for me
Not if you care for me.
Stay little valentine, stay!

Each day is Valentine's Day.

Is your figure less than Greek ?
Is your mouth a little weak ?
When you open it to speak, are you smart ?

But don't change your hair for me
Not if you care for me
Stay little valentine, stay!

Each day is Valentine's Day

Das Lied vom einsamen Mädchen

[No lyrics]

. . .


On a dusty road you sit
Fearfully in danger
The intentions of my attitude
Have mastered the adventure

In a state of trance
You may come and dance

You'll be placed in harmony
A degree of anger
You have landed painfully
Fearfully in danger

In a state of trance
You may come and dance
You may sing the void for me

Fearfully in danger
Fearfully in danger

. . .


"My heart is empty
But the songs I sing
Are filled with love for you"

A man said that to me
That's how I know

Sometimes love it does not show
Sometimes it does not even know
There is no witness to my anger
When it stabs until he dies
I am looking for the strangler
To help me, help me with my crime

Show me the way to warning
Warning for the morning light
I will stab it with a knife
The blinding sun
The heartbeat for the time to come

The honesty
That lies to you

My heart is empty
But the songs I sing
Are filled with love for you

. . .


Bring him into the arena
And let the lion win again
A triumph for the worst
Or for the better

Escaping remains uncertain

Nemesis unloaded kiss
A victim of his prophecies
Butwe do much believe
He may not wish all to see

The dare
May be surrender

. . .

König
