Sunday Circus Song
he's lonely
sitting by the mirror
awakened by the horses
in circles
running in the circus

his red nose
looking damaged in the mirror
cause no one has replaced it
he's dressed now
ready to make fun of...

he loves sundays
and every place
where his circus stays

he's lonely
he's sitting by the mirror
still broken
undressed now
ready for a new town

he loves sundays
and every place
where his circus stays

they love his show
thir favourite part
that gives them a laugh
they love his show
their favourite part
relaxes their hearts

he loves sundays
and every place
where his circus stays

Closing Time
it's closing time, and a well-known fact
is that life is very short
it's closing time says the band
and it seems that life is very short

the baker in town was fat as a cow
at the end of the day he ate all remains
the baker in town was murdered one day
an order was left of 200 pies
we've all got some vice
after closing time

so this is it!
the carnival is now heading for a new town
we hope you enjoyed the show
the party at gordon's developped into a chaos
but the report says no one was hurt
and we've also heard that charley actually did solve the case
the gruesome killing of the bakerman
finally, the clown left the circus to become a plumber
he says : suits me just fine, and life is very fine
and this is closing time

it's closing time, and a well-known fact
is that life is very short
it's closing time says the band
and it seems that life is very short
la lalala lala lalala
la lala la la
la lalala lala lalalala
la lala la la la

life - greatest of all
life - strongest of all
but at the same time
most delicate time
could well end in a moment

Deuce
I am afraid of you now
Now that you left me
Nothing I can say
No not now
Now that you left me

Now that you left me
Now that you left me

Just for how long
Did you know before you left me?
Nothing to do
It's up to you
Use it against me

Use it against me
Now that you left me

You are ahead of me now
Because you left me
Words that I said
All yours now
Use it against me

You have erased me
Now that you left me

I'll be gone
I'll be gone

I'll be gone
I'll be gone

I'll be gone
I'll be gone

I'll be gone
I'll be gone

War
Oh, come crush me now
Don't leave
No one has won this war
This time

No, don't sleep tonight
I'm hurt and ready for fire
Don't leave me up
Alarmed and ready to die

Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on

Please, I'm almost done
Don't you treat
I've loaded my gun
With love, with...
Hear the dust roll over the floor
Why must you sleep?
Come crush me now
I'm armed
And ready to die

Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, fight me, come on
Come on, it's war, come on

You look so peaceful when you sleep
Beautifully
It's such an easy way to choose
You loose

Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, fight me, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, it's war, come on

You look so peaceful when you sleep
Beautifully
It's such an easy way to choose
You loose

Nasty Sunny Beam
i can't get out of bed
can't get my dreams out
of my sleepy head

i open up my eyes
and wonder where you are
but soon i realise
that you're not real
and i am

in between of day and dream
life and death, a lazy stream
in between of day and dream
hello, goodbye
you nasty sunny beam

i try to seal my mind
and get back to where you were
you were that perfect kind
you drove me crazy
somewhere

in between of day and dream
life and death, a lazy stream
in between of day and dream
hello, goodbye
you nasty sunny beam

i'm floating down again
and my world is a syrup waterfall
i can't remember when
or where
or why

in between of day and dream
life and death, a lazy stream
in between of day and dream
hello, goodbye
you nasty sunny beam

The Boys Are Back In Town
Guess who just got back today?
Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, haven't much to say
But man, I still think those cats are crazy

They were asking if you were around
How you was, and where you could be found
I told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town

You know the chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean she was steaming

And the time over at Johnny's place
Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
Man we just fell about the place
If that chick don't want to know, forget her

The boys are back in town

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's bar and grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
And if the boys want to fight, you'd better let them

That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
It won't be long till summer comes
Now that the boys are here again

The boys are back in town

Mr. Crowley
Mr. Crowley, what went on in your head
Mr. Crowley, did you talk with the dead
Your life style to me seemed so tragic
With the thrill of it all
You fooled all the people with magic
You waited on Satan's call
Mr. Charming, did you think you were pure
Mr. Alarming, in nocturnal rapport
Uncovering things that were sacred manifest on this Earth
Conceived in the eye of a secret
And they scattered the afterbirth

Mr. Crowley, won't you ride my white horse
Mr. Crowley, it's symbolic of course
Approaching a time that is classic
I hear maidens call
Approaching a time that is drastic
Standing with their backs to the wall
I wanna know what you meant

Country Hell
such a foolish thing
what a way to be
i couldn't stay in here
and it's not right to leave
i couldn't tell you how
but all the things i feel
have their qualities

if you fall apart
fall into my arms
one uneasy morning
doesn't make me leave

such a simple thing
what a way to say
i couldn't help myself
for my foolish ways
you couldn't tell me how
but all the things you feel
have their qualities

Blah Blah Blah
hi, how are you i'm pretty fine
your eyes are red, well i am tired
please stay away from what is mine
blah blah blah blah blah blah

my, i never thought of seeing you here
i'm really glad to meet you darling
where did we lose it, will you call?

all we ever say
is blah blah blah blah blah
we feel safe
with blah blah blah blah blah

no one's hurt
no one's weird
so all we ever say
is blah blah blah blah blah

don't try to reach me, i am numb
and i don't want to look inside you
so let's just talk about the times
like normal people do!

Pikebubbles
My dad, the best dad that I've had
don't care about nothing
he's not even working
he's not only my dad
the best friend that I've had
don't think he's a mad dad

His dad, is sleeping with boots on
it makes me start wonder
cause there is no thunder
according to my dad
don't think he's a mad dad
it's only some tigers he has got in our shed

My dad, the best dad that I've had
lies under the table
he's wearing his bathrobe
he's listening to lovesongs

His dad won't go to the woodshed
thinks bugs will attack him
according to my dad
it's only some tigers he has got in our shed

Plain Parade
plain parade
well, where is all the profit laid?
plain parade
well, maybe we have lost our way

some are lone
sickly running from
something so wrong
and nowhere to belong

plain parade
well, when will i be repaid
plain parade
i might join you on another day

some are lone
sickly running from
something so wrong
and nowhere to belong

all you've given me is sadness
proof enough to feel i'm loveless
i wish that i could manage better now
and find a place that i can settle down

I Figured Out
he showed me around
to be found alone
he cleaned his room
on his own to be known

so, i figured out
with no doubt
what he was about
in his room
on his own

you say don't worry
but did you ever see us
what he does, bothers
you say don't worry
but did you ever see us
what he does, bothers

he showed me around
to be found alone
he cleaned his room
on his own to be known

so, i figured out
with no doubt
what he was about
in his room
on his own

you say don't worry
but did you ever see us
what he does, bothers
you say don't worry
but did you ever see us
what he does, bothers

Pooh Song
when the cats & dogs are falling
i'm recalling you
you said i'd be bored today
and i don't know what i want to do

wise eyes telling twice
dance like penguins on my table
ain't my kind of joy
on every friday night

i'm just wistling on a song...
songs we wrote together

when my world is far too evil
i'm recalling you
things are hard to understand
there's little that i really know

wise eyes telling twice
dance like penguins on my table
ain't my kind of joy
on every friday night

i'm just wistling on a song...
songs we wrote together
