"No Cigar"

Tell us where you're from,
what you want to become.
And we'll say if you're OK.
Where did you go to school?
Right answer and you're cool.
Yeah, you're the kid the whole day.

You get a sticker in your face.
Information about the case,
so you know your potential.
Don't you think you can extend.
Don't you think you can extend, just comprehend.
But I don't wanna hear it,
no, it's more than I accept.

I don't care where I belong no more.
What we share or not I will ignore.

We will shut you out.
We'll put you in doubt.
If you think that you're special.
We'll tell you who you are.
Tell you that you're close but no cigar.
But I don't wanna hear it,
no, it's more than I accept.

'Cause I don't care where I belong no more.
What we share or not I will ignore.
And I won't waste my time fitting in.
'Cause I don't think contrast is a sin.

What they say is...
Go back, where you came from.
They'll tell you that, but I don't wanna hear.
No I don't wanna hear. No I don't wanna hear it.
No, it's more than I accept.

'Cause I don't care where I belong no more.
What we share or not I will ignore.
And I won't waste my time fitting in.
'Cause I don't think contrast is a sin.
No, it's not a sin.



"Penguins & Polar Bears"

I don't want you to know too much about me, oh no.
'Cause I know you'll take advantage of the words that I say.
You're looking for a way to depress me, make me pay.

You don't want me to be,
too close around you 'cause I would see.
All the weak sides that you got, bout which you're trying to hide.
You know that I would nail you if I could nurse my pride.

You're on the top when I'm low.
As soon as you're fading I will grow.
I don't like you. You don't like me.
We're lacking energy. Yeah, we're lacking energy.

It's a mindgame we play.
Rule the roost, major cliche.
While one of us is fit the other's going insane.
And every time we think the positions will remain.

You're on the top when I'm low.
As soon as you're fading I will grow.
I don't like you. You don't like me.
We're lacking energy. Yeah, we're lacking energy.
So you got me up against the wall
and I'm only waiting for your fall.
I'll get back on top and be carefree.
It's not the end for me, no It's not the end for me.

I know we're thinking the same
and our opponent's the one to blame.
Thinking this way is not something we both longed for.
Living this way is never something we did plan.
But I don't think we will change.
'cause we're stuck in roles as other's antipoles.


"Queen's Gambit"

A classic phrase, he's trying to find out
A gnarly phase, whatever's there to doubt
Whatever's there to doubt

I'm not immune
Words come out but not in tune for you
I'm not immune
You Are barking all too soon at me

Alone in line, for me to turn away
And what is fine, would be in what you say
Would be in what you say

I'm not immune
Words come out but not in tune for you
I'm not immune
You are barking all too soon at me

A classic phrase again
A gnarly phase pretend
Wants me to turn away
Because I'm not what you see!

I'm not immune
Words come out but not in tune for you
I'm not immune
You are barking all too soon at me, at me, at me
You are barking all too soon at me, at me, at me
I'm not immune to you



"Dinner Dog"

Somebody told me I should get a normal job
If I don't quit the band I have I'll end up as a slob
But I'm not listening to no-one
Especially not the people who aren't happy with their lives
And yet they preach
Well this is who I am and what I really want to do
Yeah I do respect you hope you will respect me too
Ready to go on with my life, know it's all me
I realise it now, I'm sure my life was free, I realise it now

Somebody told me that I dream my life away
If I don't start to live like him I'll end up being ashamed
But I wont fall, I'll never leaving
More important than this, I should be following just in me, go my own way
Well this is who I am and what I'm truly standing for
Figure out the answers by myself and I'm quite sure
Working to whatever that I want it's all me
I realise it now, I'm sure my life was free, I realise it now

This is a beginning
Yeah I know it never ends
Life's too short for you to doubt
There is always someway out
Try your own way you will see
How much sweeter life can be



"Fox"

I met a fox the other day.
When I asked how much she cost, I had to pay.
All of a sudden I'd brought her home.
She's one hundred kilos dressed in silverchrome.

She's my world, she's so rad.
She's the best ride I've ever had.
She's my world, she's so bad.
She's the best ride I've ever had.

When I imagine me and her.
You know that I get a stand-up fur.
I give her oil, I give her gas,
And get her seat beneath her ass.
Then the turtledoves drive away.

She's secondhand, so what? She's true, she's by my side.
For all I care she's hot, she's a real good ride.
When we go out people stop and stare with jealous minds.
It's OK for me as long as they let her be...
To prevent something like a theft I got her locked around a tree.



"Kemp"

I gotta learn how to lose and to choose my own wars
I gotta understand it's not me against the world no more
When you are sure as hell then I don't know
You are so pure and well when I am low
When you say "Sure as hell!" then I say no, I say no

A spoke in your wheel, yeah like a bugging fly
A thorn in your side just like a constant red-eye
On being an ass I've really been a pro
So can I say no?
Can I say no?

I know I've tread on your toes and it shows who I am
And all these situations and relations from the start they were damned
I feel the need to stop when you say go
I am indeed a punk if you say so
I feel a need to stop so I say no.

A spoke in your wheel, yeah like a bugging fly
A thorn in your side just like a constant red-eye
On being an ass I've really been a pro

What can I say?
