Les paroles


In A Room :
The sun is shining and the babes are surfing nude
I've got a Bud in my hand and I'm relaxing in the sand
I smile, they smile as my bud is getting hot
they want me to be a surfer and man why not?
I'm surfing in my room
I feel so satisfied as I'm surfing in my room

The wind is blowing and the waves are all I see
they take me away into another perfect dream
that's what it is, a dream

Surfing in my room, I feel like a star
It's just too bad that I can't get far
I feel like a man
a Don Juan on my board, that's what I am



Pain:
When I saw you, I was not even looking
I heard you scream without raising your voice
will I run or let you have your fun
I feel like I ain't got no choice

But Maybe I ask too much or walk in the wrong direction
All those thoughts drive me insane
and I wonder how long I fell this

Pain, is not really what it is
no, it's something different with a different name
and you, you never tell me a damn thing
I hope someday I'll learn to play this game

Fear, of course I fear the unknown
because the unknown is a stranger to me
but if you erase the pj's
then what could a stranger be
that remains to be seen

Life goes on, it's just the same every day
Life goes on, though you think you feel this pain



Shake Me:
I spend all the weekdays hangin' out with you
I guess I haven't got a better thing to do
you give me nothing though I'm happy all the time
when the weekend comes you turn me down

You try to shake me

Do you remember when we were playing pool
I was romantic and said you were a fool
those are the moments that I really miss
when I'm cool and you think I try to dis

I tried to hide my pain inside of me
but when you came you made me feel real
you made me feel like I really am
god damn, now I'm loosing you just because I care

You are my headache, I don't wanna be alone
When I'm lonely you make me write another song
I think of you and all the things we've done
who's the loser and who has won?


Melack:
So what if I don't understand
I'll always be an equal man to myself
I don't know who he is, I don't know what he thinks
But he gives me a sign, I wanna read all the unknown lines

There's a man outside my window, he has no control

When I travel deep, it's like a mystic sleep
I got my feet on the ground
I'm on my way to the unknown land

Now it's time to get concrete
Feel the inside of me deep
when he calls me I won't open up the door
Oh, will I have the chance to rule my life like before



Nosepicker:
You pick your nose while I'm watching
and I'm quite impressed
if you pick again, pick one for your friends
they're leaving you, leaving you all alone
When you're in the mood to do the stuff that you'll regret
then take a knife, it could end your life
what goes around always comes around

It's your nose that you're picking
It's your choice to pick your nose and think
It's grose to pick your nose like that in front of all your so called friends
but if it makes you feel better than this story's rather sad

Just let me tell you what I think
I think you really stink
you took my feelings and went away, stay away
is it enough or do you want some more?
I will never open my door for you anymore
if you don't change your way, stay away

I don't want to ask you another question
about me and you, because you don't care
you're acting like a square, is this fair?

Nosepicker told me, plug your finger and keep on picking
But don't pick on me, I'm in your dreams in color
and I think I'll stay there for long
Forget the time, it's pointing at you
You must be bad, must be bad, must be rather sad



Use You'r Nose:
Use your nose as your tail, going switchstance, never bail
find a curb, do a grind, feel the things you can not find

Use your nose


Flippin' Beans:
I got a plan for you and I
I wanna take you to for this ride
across the flippin' beans
I'll sit and wait for you and me

I want and I feel
that piece of you, that I see that's for me

You say you really hate it too
you say you wanna take a highgrip
inhale gasoline, you sit and wait
then you watch me flee

Stranger in a strange land
that's what I am
you turn away from me, boom and bam
I got to see you, cause you blew my mind
and now you gonna die, so don't ask why



Yellow Dog:
Tell me where you need to go
Kick me if I move to slow
Hear me listen with your mind
see me even if your blind

Will you walk with me right now ?
will you talk to me this time ?
I can take a way the fog
Waiting for my yellow dog

Tell me about the things you hide
Trust me and I'll be by your side
Don't lie to me or to your self
Don't cry don't lay this on the shelf

I always try to make things right
though it seems to be for nothing
it's hard to accept the fact
that you may not want me

Think I'll keep on treating you this way
even though it may not change you
well that's my only chance
read my lips and listen if you can
you try to be so damn cool
look inside, analyze yourself
then you'll see you and me



A Bit Of Muslin:
I see her eating maggots and I think it's cool
I watch her as she throws up

She's a bit of muslin, a vitriolic nasty girl
mysterious in every way, moving like a swirl
fly guys surrounds her, hoping she will be their girl
but this sphinx is a notion
and no man will ever get to her

I want to recall the stuff that she might have missed
I need her to be my stash



Melancholy Protection:
things you never would have told aren't secrets anymore
today you talk about that time when your mind was really sore

now I know why you have been thinking about the other side
you never thought that it would happen and now you have lost your pride
going up going down, sometimes I feel the same way as you do,
you feel to scream you feel to cry

melancholy protection
you've got to move on

you are chanceless to find the warmth again
you are chanceless but can't forget what happened then


Niap:
When I saw you, I was not even looking
I heard you scream without raising your voice
will I run or let you have your fun
I feel like I ain't got no choice

But Maybe I ask too much or walk in the wrong direction
All those thoughts drive me insane
and I wonder how long I fell this

Pain, is not really what it is
no, it's something different with a different name
and you, you never tell me a damn thing
I hope someday I'll learn to play this game

Fear, of course I fear the unknown
because the unknown is a stranger to me
but if you erase the pj's
then what could a stranger be
that remains to be seen

Life goes on, it's just the same every day
Life goes on, though you think you feel this pain


Dragster:
Can't you see that he's a fake thing
Can't you see that he will break things
For a start he will break your heart
And after that he'll never pick up the parts

But I'm not a guy with muscles, I'm a guy with brains
If you come to me you'll never feel pain
My everlasting charm won't cause you no harm

Can't you see that he's a big hype
Can't you see that he's not your type
Can't you see it in his blue eyes
Can't you see he's so full of lies

I won't cause you no harm


Can't you see that he's a fake thing
Can't you see that he will break things
For a start he will break your heart
And after that he'll never pick up the parts

But I'm not a guy with muscles, I'm a guy with brains
If you come to me you'll never feel pain
My everlasting charm won't cause you no harm

Can't you see that he's a big hype
Can't you see that he's not your type
Can't you see it in his blue eyes
Can't you see he's so full of lies

An Els And His Zippo :
Receive a slicky effort, avoid mental disaster
pollute attempt to trap a breed authority
so long, Mr.Turtle shrimp threatened by all the advance
port supply protect caused by pollution

Don't let go, without any reason
cause in the end you won't let go
you still have to know that I have all this struggles
and now I search for a way, in a life that is wasted

pull back a giant tree with a hand that's full of fire
I see it's covered all by grain, it's least a struggle
I am controlled by pity and I walk the streets at night
I see a twinkling star and I wish that I was as bright as you

It's your right to strife for the justice
It's your right to strife for the truth
