stop getting on my nerves
get out of my sight
I wouldn't mind to hurt you
if we had to fight

should the need arise
rather take my advice
you'd better piss off

though we love the same girl
this need not worry you
'cause I'm the one to take her
whatever you might do

should the need arise
rather take my advice
you'd better piss off

what are you hanging about
didn't I make my point clear
no use shouting so loud
you can't make me fear you

should the need arise
rather take my advice
you'd better piss off

though we love the same girl
this need not worry you
'cause I'm the one to take her
whatever you might do

the sun is out, it's warm and bright
forget the cold, enjoy the light
summer fete - stay out at night
dance and music by torchlight
have some fun, it's all right
on a warm, starlit summer night

warm summer night
everything feels all right
on a warm summer night

holidays by the sea
charge you with new energy
no time for trouble, here you're free
be who you've always wished to be
lie in the shadow of a tree
which guards your dreams and makes you see

warm summer night
everything feels all right
on a warm summer night

lying nude in the spray
on the beach of the cay
live your life your own way
never mind what others say
what feels good is okay
seize the night, seize the day

warm summer night
everything feels all right
on a warm summer night

she used to sleep at daytime
and roam about at night
I try to make her mine
I try to hold her tight
I love to touch her body
and kiss her big dark eyes
I love to make her moan
and hear her little cries
I call her my bushbaby
hope she won't leap away
she could become my lady
I want to make her stay
make my bushbaby stay

she told me she was slow
I said "I know,
take your time, dear girl
don't scrape and bow
always take your time
and let things grow
let your feelings grow!"

time is just an illusion
misleading our minds

she told me she was slow
I said "I know,
no need to keep it low
or let things go
take your time, dear girl
and let love grow
let love and beauty glow!"

time is just an occlusion
keeping us confined

we've led a life that was not my choice
I shut my ears to my inner voice
I've had enough, so I'll be on my way

this could not go on forever
so for me it's now or never
I've had enough, so I'll be on my way

I'll face the challenge
I'll kill the dragon
earn praise and honor
I'll take the treasure
deflower the virgin
that is why I'm on my way

I leave a life that's become hollow
I have had enough to swallow
I've heard the call, so I'll be on my way

boredom, anger, pain, and sorrow
ain't what I want for tomorrow
I've heard the call, so I'll be on my way

I'll face the challenge
I'll kill the dragon
earn praise and honor
I'll take the treasure
deflower the virgin
that is why I'm on my way

the earth is just a tiny speck
lost in the universe
a heap of matter gone astray
due to some ancient curse
forgotten and neglected by the gods
who made the world
on its own and lonesome since
the galaxies unfurled

I've just seen a photo
which was shut from the space:
a fragile ball of vibrant blue
of beauty and of grace
spoilt and nourished by the sun
until the end of days
immediately I fell in love
with this special place

I'm alive
I'm in love
I could embrace you all

I kiss your eyes, I kiss your lips
I gently touch your face
I take your hand to lead you to
my secret hiding place
let's swim the river, let's float downstream
towards the endless sea
when in the end we find the light
there'll be just you and me

you were sure I wouldn't notice
you were sure I wouldn't mind
your life was yours - I didn't count
it was just handy I was around
was around

time will tell if the wound can be sutured
time will tell if it's worth it to strive
time will tell if we have a future
time will tell

time will tell if the wound can be sutured
time will tell if our love will survive
time will tell if we have a future
time will tell

did you think I wouldn't notice
did you think that I was blind
you'd have your fun - I didn't count
it was just handy I was around
was around

time will tell if the wound can be sutured
time will tell if it's worth it to strive
time will tell if we have a future
time will tell

time will tell if the wound can be sutured
time will tell if our love will survive
time will tell if we have a future
time will tell

time will tell if the wound can be sutured
time will tell if it's worth it to strive
time will tell if we have a future
time will tell

time will tell what come tomorrow
time will tell if it pays off to fight
if there's love or if there is sorrow
time will tell

tough

I was so young, so insecure,
didn't know my way
caught in my emotions, sometimes I was thinking
that I might be gay
then you came across, had a closer look
and you had your say
told me what to do, told me how to live
I had to obey

you've been tough from early childhood
you've been tough since we first met
you were tough when I deceived you
you're as tough as one can get
you're so tough

happy ever since, we've just stayed together
I cannot complain
just once I made a mistake, looked the other way
must have been insane
no-one could come between us, whatever they might try
it would be in vain
call it what you like, see it as you please
I love my golden chain

you're so tough ..

you're so tough ..

we walk through your garden
blink into the sun
sniffing the spring air -
a new life's begun
I've got the strong feeling
that you are the one
and I'm just
your loving man

the smell of the flowers
the words that you speak
going into my head -
such a beautiful day
and we do not mind
whereto it leads
we do not mind
we do not care
enjoying the hours
which we just share
enjoying our bodies
enjoying our love
caressing our souls
there's never enough
pleasure

now I am a husband
and you are my wife
we're suffering the treadmill
of everyday life
when I feel unhappy
you're twisting the knife
and I'm just
your suffering guy

we'd let our love grow
like the plants and the flowers -
or rather like weeds
we're just counting the hours
and we do not care
whereto it leads
we do not mind
we do not care
neglecting the time
we'd wanted to share
neglecting our bodies
neglecting our love
we torture our souls
there's always enough
boredom

the sun is burning
the air is too hot
our garden is barren
you're saying "So what!"
our life's become empty
we're in a tight spot
and I'm just
a helpless man

our life's like a dungeon
like time spent in hell
we're living in darkness
like under a spell
I've got the strong feeling
that you are the winner
and I'm just
your dying man

it's smelling of sulfur -
your insults and sneers
go into my head
nursing my fears
but you do not mind
whereto it leads

you do not mind
you do not care
hating the hours
we have to share
hating our bodies
choking our love

she was forbidden young and quite delicious
they'd offered me a special price
she looked so innocent as well as vicious
some fun with her should turn out nice

they'd told me that she was a virgin
pushing into her I found that right
but they had done this trick before
just stitched her up the other night

we went upstairs to a filthy bedroom
I had my fun - she did her job
had I expected any different?
what I had paid for I had got

they'd told me ..

I know that what I've done was wrong
and that by far I'm not the only one
some horny bugger who likes fresh meat
and is prone to fall victim to a cheat

they'd told me ..

shut up
spread your legs
do as you are told
shut up
spread your legs
before you get too old

stop talking your head off
munching and chewing the words
now the time has come
to be a nice girl

shut up ...

who cares for opinions
on theoretic matters
rather focus on things
we both understand better

shut up ...

don't mind our relation
or what it could mean
to us or to others
I'm not part of your dream

shut up ..

a people on the decline
a far misleaded crowd
a war that cannot be won
ideals, not beyond doubt
they're dealing with opinions
the truth is not allowed

the tide may be turning
while bush fires are burning
strong emotions churning
while bush fires are burning

there was talk of a crusade
its essence, though, is oil
on civilizations birthplace
they're wasting men and soil
not sure of what they're gaining
it's obvious what they spoil

the tide may be turning
while bush fires are burning
strong emotions churning
while bush fires are burning

when will they be learning
that bush fires are burning

you got me hard as a rock
when you kissed my dick
I made you swallow the lot
- gave me the special kick

you're my hard-core queen
but you know what that means

I took you from behind
we played it soft and rough
we did it 69
I couldn't get enough

you're my hard-core queen
but you know what that means

you won't get into my life
you know a one-night stand
is meant to end
- I'm staying with my wife

you're my hard-core queen
but you know that it means
you're a bitch

I took you ...

you're my hard-core queen
but you know what that means

smells like spring
hear the birds sing
time to spread your wings
time for planning far ahead

we will part
it need not be hard
take up another card
venture into foreign lands

leave the sticky ground behind
time for the tangle to unwind

see the moon
she might come too soon
to shine on my tomb
jump into the sun instead

got to part
it won't be too hard
pick a better card
venture to the promised land

leave the sticky ground behind
time for the tangle to unwind

feels like spring
I hear the birds sing
time to spread my wings
time for planning far ahead

dress up, it's party time
style your hair, line the eyes
get ready for the night - and
jump up, it's party time

get dressed up
style your hair
put on
fresh make-up
'cause you're no nun
meet new friends
have some fun

join the crowd
music's playin'
have fun
going out
and join the fete
time to dance
feel the beat

music's loud, a warm summer night, drinks are cool
if you had some more you would get reckless
music's loud, a warm summer night, drinks are cool
and you have some more and don't mind

summer is kissing time
strong arms around your waist
get ready for some loving
jump up, it's party time
