We screamed: ‘Oh my God!’ as we got into the store Blinded by the light A man tapped me gently on my shoulder: ‘Hold on to your dreams and you can keep the change’ So let’s think this through ‘Cause what we’re about to do Might turn out to be a huge mistake

Disappointment, oh disappointment! Fucking sticking to me like a stinky ointment It ain’t something that I learned from F.O.D. But when I was born into society I’ve got inner heat, I’ve got inner heat, I’m out! If you’ve got inner heat, If you’ve got inner heat, stay out! We’re trying to survive as we get together That’s why we start chatting about the weather And I know it’s hard to smile While dirt’s being rubbed into your face What the hell? What is this place? I’ve got inner heat, I’ve got inner heat, I’m out! If you’ve got inner heat, If you’ve got inner heat, stay out! ‘You’re a really odd dude, man! You know that, right?’ ‘I do. But it serves a purpose. I don’t really like people all that much.’

DIRTY CHOCOLATE The truth is bittersweet The chocolate that we eat Is poisoned by a ruthless industry Where children’s dreams have drowned To keep the prices down They use them for their slave machinery No, I don’t wanna be a part of this crime Let them free, let them free now! We’re blind ‘cause we don’t see Half of the sick shit Happening all around us We’re deaf ‘cause all we hear Are lies from western media But If there’s just a grain of truth About this human right abuse We gotta think Gotta stand up Gotta scream out: ‘Let them free!’

I was hanging at the mall and Taking drags of my stoge Mustache man in uniform said: ‘Son, you better turn off that smoke!’ Let me explain Well, I can’t see a switch, you son of a … It was a nice day for skating I was grinding on a rail A cop showed up ‘They like guys with those crappy ear rings in jail.’ Let me explain Well, I might look a mess, but you can kiss my AAAASS! My answers hurt so bad

A little man with a big guitar Potent on stage and at the bar He talks a lot and is mostly right You better don’t argue, don’t start a fight A human dictionary Competent and hairy Not only a member of the band But an awesome guy and a friend Billy, he really knows how to play But I gotta ask for one thing anyway Turn the bass down and listen up My ears bleed, my head aches Billy my friend, please don’t get me wrong Let me explain while you go on Your bass melody – so nice But I gotta heed my doc’s advice The ringing in my ear Is what I really fear ‘Counterclockwise’ – the magic word Only until it stops to hurt Go on, just a bit more quietly So wrong this step cannot be

WHAT’S YOUR STYLE? An idea that has been stripped down to its look Is like a nice car without an engine: Might look good, won’t take you far So you’re going to a hardcore show The only thing you do is judging other people By the clothes they’re wearing Come on, quit bugging me and tell me instead: What’s in your head What’s in your heart Those are really nice tattoos Matching your new shoes All the piercings in your face Are a genuine grace But it’s not about how tight your pants are What really counts is: What’s in your head What’s in your heart Post this on facebook, sucker And leave me alone Post this on facebook, bitch And leave me alone

Hey kid, what are you up to, Alone out in the dark? The favor of the night won’t help you ‘cause you’re wearing the mark It’s your freakin’ ugly face An embarrassing disgrace Which I’m taking care of now Just to put things straight Don’t you move Don’t you scream Now your mine No, I’m not (You better watch out) (Listen up! Listen up!) (You better run fast) (Can you here the noise?) Hey kid, I gotta tell ya Your timing’s kinda bad I had a hell of a day and you’re gonna pay Believe me I’m upset This little gleaming on my chest Not exactly for your best You’re a troublemaker And you’re going down by law Trust me, this is righteous ‘Cause I told you so No, it’s not (You better watch out) (Listen up! Listen up!) (You better run fast) (Can you here the noise?) It’s the hangman’s time In the streets at night It’s the hangman’s time In the streets by day

I know her so well, she don’t know me at all If I only had her number, I could give her a call She visits me every week on Thursday night I just turn on the telly and I feel alright Ain’t she sweet? My knees get weak Her piercing voice inside my head Hard to ignore, hard to forget Heidi Klum just ate a kid And I can’t deal with it The audience was so amused And I’m left here confused Heidi, sweetie, baby, what did you do? How can I even dare to be mad at you? Just one look into your empty eyes And I know that loving you has its price Our love is real And that’s why you dumped Seal Her piercing voice inside my head Hard to ignore, hard to forget Heidi Klum just ate a kid And I can’t deal with it The audience was so amused And I’m left here confused Heidi Klum just took a shit And I can’t deal with it The crowd started to applause And I don’t the cause

Sometimes I feel all alone Sometimes I feel like the whole world is against me Sometimes I just wanna stab myself in the back But then I realize my arms are way too short And I can’t stab myself in the back That’s when I’m feeling hopeless and stupid But today... I’m doing alright I’m feeling just fine I’m doing alright You motherfuckers here we go When I was a sailor The ocean was my home I left my burdens all behind me Was in peace with my own It will never gonna be, never gonna be Never gonna be the same no more ‘Cause I will never gonna see, never gonna see, Never gonna see this place no more Call me Jack Kerouac ’Hey Jack!’ Always on the road Looking for the perfect moment I'm a rolling stone And it will never be the same again Gonna leave it all behind farewell It was a Friday when they tried to get me All my creditors ‘Cause I was a buffing fluffing Good for nothing gambler Chiggachiggaching chigga ching che ching, I spended (that’s drunkish for ‘spent’) All my money on horse racing, The bardoor’s burstin out cause they kicked it in, One-eighty spin and jump right out the window Goodbye I´m sorry and don´t be angry The tide is in, I clear the port I swear i will get back on track And one fine day I´ll pay it back Taking one step forward, taking two steps back You never lose track and you never gonna slack The doctor said: ‘Just go ahead.’ What do you know? I said: ‘Fuck that!’

So here I am, I can’t go on And I’m sick of trying to What’s the use of staying strong? I cannot think of one Reason to go ahead Reason to get out of bed Night and day are all the same So I just stay lying down As I’m staring at the ceiling I slowly go insane You can tell by the scratches on my arms I close my eyes and hope these voices fade away Get off my back, I really need A bit sleep Optimistic Self-deluding Hope is a tale that you have to believe in Or else you will fail to survive through deceiving I’m not like that I’m not like that My bleeding bitten fingernails They cannot catch the attention of my restless mind As I’m trying to fall asleep What’s that you’re saying, Grim Reaper? Come on and sit next to me Whisper in my ear and tell me about The Big Sleep
12.
You think I’m lonesome ‘Cause I got nothing to hold on to and believe in Screw all your fake-gods And fuck politicians on their lie missions No promise will be kept Nothing brings me down BRINGS ME DOWN Nothing brings me down NOTHING BRINGS ME DOWN Please keep in mind everything has its end Every time that you count on a friend That kind of luxury I cannot afford I threw all my fucking faith overboard Nothing brings me down BRINGS ME DOWN Nothing brings me down NOTHING BRINGS ME DOWN ‘Cause I don’t trust anyone ANYONE Nothing brings me down NOTHING BRINGS ME DOWN
