Lyrics


1. TIME'S UP

Get outta bed and start to run,
Another morning ain't no fun.
Get outta bed and start to run,
Another morning ain't no fun.
Another morning, Nothing new,
But this is not what I wanna do

Get outta bed and start to run,
Another morning ain't no fun.
Another morning, Nothing new,
But this is not what I wanna do

No this is not what I wanna do,
I'd rather stay in bed with you


2. GIGI PIRATE

Hush my baby, baby dry your tears,
The murder is done
There'll be no more victims
No more gas bottles full of nails,
We've put the criminals in jail
No need to cry, No need to fall down,
Stop living in fear, We've got the solution
Call gigi pirate, He's gonna find the problem ,
He's gonna solve the problem

Live your life in deep security,
Our cameras will keep an eye on you,
Intervention troops are ready to go,
And if it's not enough there'll be a curfew.
No need to cry, No need to fall down,
Stop living in fear, We've got the solution

Call gigi pirate, He's gonna find the problem ,
He's gonna solve the problem

I need you to suspect everyone around
And call him if you find something wrong
We'll clean it up, clean it up, in town
And our foreign neighbors will be proud of what we've done,
Proud of what we've done and if it's not enough

Call gigi pirate,
He's gonna find the problem ,
He's gonna solve the problem.


3. WISE GUY

Tell me it's white, I'll show you how it's black
If it's the only way to get you off my back
We both know that nothing I say is true
And I know you know that I don't have a clue
Wise guy, know it all, Wise guy seen it all,
Wise guy, know it all, Wise guy

And I'm so wise, I should be on TV,
I'd make you only see what I wanna see
Using everything that might help, get rid of all the rest,
I just wanna forget

And when all the facts just slap me in the face,
I'll take you for a ride, Take you to another place
Still I'll be talking when there's nothing left to say blabbering
And boasting I'll pretend I'm OK

Wise guy, know it all, Wise guy seen it all,
Wise guy, know it all, Wise guy I know you well by now


4. GROUNDTOWN

You just stay here behind your desk
Waiting for the next one to come
Leave your feelings at the door
For eight hours a day
To you I'm just a number in a long list to come
Another loser really too far gone
In five minutes I've told you my life
You needed less to tear it down
I'll think you'll never understand
Til you live the way I live
Until you lose everything
You'll see how it's all coming down

You just stay behind your desk
You say it's your job and you don't have to think
But no one's safe from this kind of scorn
What if tomorrow it all goes weong
You're heading for a fall, you're out of control

I'll think you'll never understand
Til you live the way I live
Until you lose everything
You'll see how it's all coming down
See me crawling , Groundtown


5. GRAY

Woke up this morning and I saw something strange
I thought I was still dreaming and I didn't see it change
Disunified nations, dancing to one song
Army in the street, giving the right beat
No books just TV, no one who seems to see
And everybody loks gray, they show no feelings

No emotions, just submission,
A sensation of d?j? vu
No way to escape, this hell's all true
Better see it clear, the end's getting near

No books just TV, no one who seems to see
And everybody loks gray, they show no feelings

Woke up this morning, thinking I could keep on
Expecting better days, but good days are gone now
Stupid nazis-shit get more power
The past forgotten, now where's your heaven?

No books just TV, no one who seems to see
And everybody loks gray, they show no feelings


6. WRONG

What you're doing here
Well you don't seem to know
Did someone force you in
Or you had nowhere to go
You're always staring and whining
Complaining all the time
Show me what you've done
I'd really like to know
Cause if you heard it all before
Then I wonder what you're here for

And I don't think
I wanna talk anymore
Cause you're wrong

I see your face and now I'm bored
I see your face and now I walk away
Cause I've heard if you've heard it all before
Then I wonder what you're here for

And I don't think
I wanna talk anymore
Cause you're wrong

And people like you who think
You know it all ... Are bugging us who do

And people like you who think
You know it all ... Are bugging us who do


7. DRAW YOUR BRAKES

Stop that train, I wanna get off
...


8. NO REPLY

We won't tell you what to do,
We'll just leave you no choice
We'll take good care of you
The sly way to subdue.
So get a job and earn some money,
Join the ranks and fall in line,
It's a race now can't you see
The only way to remain free

So don't take trouble asking why,
Cause you'll get no reply,
About the bombs that we've built
And what we've done to our seas

The secret games we have to play,
Decisions we had to make,
Long before you noticed,
We're only for your sake

So don't take trouble asking why,
Cause you'll get no reply,
About the bombs that we've built
And what we've done to our seas

Who ever told you
You could raise your voice
Can't you see we're busy
Here making things worse
I guess you thought that
You would have the choice

So don't take trouble asking why,
Cause you'll get no reply,
About the bombs that we've built
And what we've done to our seas

And all the countries on this planet
Are waiting to catch
You out
Someone has to take action
So don't be so surprised


9. MAKE BELIEVE

I feel like I'm lost somewhere in the middle of nowhere
And when I open my eyes, I got no place to stare
Maybe I woke up too early, so I go back to bed,
My body's weak and I'm miles away
I won't go to work today, today is like just yesterday
And I ain't gonna take that winding way to get my own happiness
Cuz I'm insane and my chains are hurting me
I think I'm tired of this, Tired of this ...

Living in a world of make believe,
That's the way you make things go
And I ain't gonna let you get me

So I quit and I return to my self-made universe
Cause you're not in it
Without your pills and your chemicals my pleasure is all
You pretend to be free in this beautiful world,
I leave it all to you
You can destroy it, break it in two

Living in a world of make believe,
That's the way you make things go
And I ain't gonna let you get me

I stop working and start running, but I run from you
I stop running and start dreaming, but I dream of you
I stop dreaming and start flying, now I'm flying over you

Living in a world of make believe,
That's the way you make things go
And I ain't gonna let you get me


10. TIME TO SPIT

You've played the rebel, now it's done,
Millions of people've heard you song
But every story has an end,
See you next time you need a hand ...
See you in hell
I saw the wave pass from the beach, you did quite well surfing the hit
You made me laugh you made me rich, but now I think it's time to split
Time to split

So you're back to zero once again, don't count on me to share your pain,
But I'm too busy my future's planned, you're not in it this time my friend,
You've played the rebel, now it's done,
Millions of people've heard you song
But your message, revolution, just don't fit with my constitution

So you're back to zero once again, don't count on me to share your pain,
But I'm too busy my future's planned, you're not in it this time my friend.


11. THE NOTHING

There was a guy who had no head
He had no teeth he had no tongue
He had no body nad no feet
He was born in a no man's land
He had no legs he had no hands
You'll say he's really sick
He had no ass he had no dick
Do you wanna make a bet
I swear it's all true
He was as real as I see you
The weirdest guy I ever met.

I said your life must be a bore
He said:"I can't take it no more"
He had no arms he had no hair
Sometimes life really ain't fair

Do you wanna make a bet
I swear it's all true
He was as real as I see you
The weirdest guy I ever met.

There's nothing else to add
Except he wasn't that bad
It's taken way too long
I don't know why we wrote this song


12. P.F.K

Everybody gets fucked up of saying ther's no way to live,
Working half our lives like dogs then try to have fun
I turn the TV off, don't watch the dreams that I can't afford,
And I take a look all around, see the old world falling down
I'm guess I'm happy, got everything I needed
Guess I got what I deserve, must've been born in the wrong place
I must be happy, that's what my mommy always told me but
Can somebody tell me why I've burned forty years in a single night

We're against the wall and everybody knows it
And all around the world it's all the same
There's people living and dying in the street
It 's you and me, can't you see

Now mom and dad, don't get me wrong,
I'm just sad and I wanna stay alone.


13. FUCK L.P.

Fuck L.P., Fuck L.P.
I wanna smash that guy
Fuck L.P., Fuck L.P.
I wanna see him dead
My only way to stay safe is to never tell your name
So fuck L.P. fuck him
I wanna stab that clown
Fuck L.P., Fuck L.P.
For what he's said and done
My only way to stay safe is to never tell your name

So fuck L.P. fuck L.P.


14. SHOES

Project your problems onto someone else
Think they can solve'em in your place
Know just what you're thinking
You want someone to blame
I know just what you're thinking
It's always been the same

And it's so easy to build these walls around you
Make it safe don't let anyone come through

And if you think there's nothing you can do
Boy I'm glad I'm not in your shoes

How can I tell you it's the wrong target
Can't you try to figure out the feeling that we get


15. ALL'S FINE

The third world is calling
The third world is calling you
The third world is calling
The third world is calling you
Feels like we're back in the middle ages
We're making this world our own cage
We've locked the door, thrown away the key,
Calling our brothers our ennemies

The third world is calling
The third world is calling you
The third world is calling
The third world is calling you

Sightless leaders in an ivory tower
Sightless, sightless
Never realized, never realized
That it was bound to happen
Now it's you, .... , you,
It's you for whom the bell tolls
