After All 03:23
lyrics
now tomorrow has become today and the grief inside of me hasn't gone away we've never tried to learn the language of each other now it's my turn there must be another reason i was acting like i did the longer, apart we sit the feeling that i thought i'd lost now stronger than it was before because i love you more you have said a lot of things i couldn't understand afterwards i have recognized that for each other we were meant i hope that you will give us just one more chance i simply don't believe in our love's end there must be another reason i was acting like i did the longer, apart we sit the feeling that i thought i'd lost now stronger than it was before because i love you more after all

Gravity Spot 03:38
lyrics
open up my eyes and see the waterfalls pouring down your cheeks again why do you ignore me i'm not invisible i'm standing right in front of you please don't let me be misunderstood i never wanted you to live in this lonely spot i never wanted to be someone you still love just one single word come on and talk to me you have completely withdrawn into yourself i can understand that it's hard for you the feelings you try to repress Please don't let me be misunderstood. I never wanted you to live in this lonely spot. I never wanted to be someone you still love. gravity spot open up a change in love please don't let me be misunderstood i never wanted you to live in this lonely spot i never wanted to be someone you still love gravity you will find a new love

People 02:40
lyrics
pressure by society makes me sick how to stay clean even if I stay at home i'm convinced they've bucked the phone my life is not a merchandise and it's not for sale people are craving for sensation they are hunters and i'm hunted my private life, please let it be there's a lack of morality the golden shot will make them rich get heavy on digging my ditch my life is not a merchandise and it's not for sale people are craving for sensation they are hunters and i'm hunted People even dig in my ashes did they notice that i'm hunted check this out the newscast says he's out of control people are craving for sensation they are hunters and i'm hunted People even dig in my ashes did they notice that i'm hunted

Deaf Powder 03:28
lyrics
one by one again like something on assembly line one by one again and no one shows a true sign one by one again trying not to fall into the abyss one by one again when you waste your life on material habits where it blooms on fields to carry higher yields shining stars adorn their own coffin lid one by one again return the look, the crowd collapses one by one again to be controlled by human crap one by one again and after all it's just a song one by one again that you sing when your entire freedom is gone where it blooms on fields to carry higher yields shining stars adorn their own coffin lid see your life with open eyes and a change in mind see your life with open mind don't waste your time where it blooms on fields to carry higher yields shining stars adorn their own coffin lid

Thermometer 04:29
lyrics
they say that life is a gift but it's lost inside of me they say that destiny is sometimes bad-tempered and now i agree they cannot rescue my soul no one can degrade the cold they say it was a terrible crash that nobody survived they say i am the only traveller who might come back to life they cannot rescue my soul no one can degrade the cold

Titletrack 03:34
lyrics
you ain't got no balls who told you that you don't need the balls now your butt is tighter nice backhand what could be whiter, nothing boy, you're young and unskilled you've got no experience in this field so what are you doing on our court this is not your business and not your sport call this a no-go it's not made for the radio this is the song, hard to sing but nice to clap along stomp with your feet feel the vibration of our beat and later at the bar tell your rivals how successful you are you can swing a racket, which really could be nice but without the balls, better think twice what are you doing on our court this is not your business and not your sport call this a no-go it's not made for the radio this is the song, hard to sing but nice to dance along hey, ho, no-go call this a no-go it's not made for the radio this is the song, hard to sing but nice to bang along

Two 03:47
lyrics
this long road we have to follow seems endless we're out of breath and drenched in sweat when will these panic attacks finally die away nausea and vertigo we've lost our sense of time, the clock is ticking these fucking seconds feel like hours dragging pain in my back and my limbs the only thing that makes me go on is you we kick the habit as long as it takes we're interdependent, so please don't fade away we kick the habit, don't feed the machine we try to be strong and try to get clean these depressions are almost unbearable and they make my head explode, holy lord nothing is real, except you and me and except the two of us we kick the habit as long as it takes we're interdependent, so please don't fade away we kick the habit, don't feed the machine we try to be strong and try to get clean we kick the habit as long as it takes we're interdependent, so don't fade away whatever it takes. we kick the habit as long as it takes we're interdependent, so please don't fade away we kick the habit, don't feed the machine we try to be strong and try to get clean

Pistolero 03:30
lyrics
my paths have been crossed by so many people´s lives only some hearts kept beating after i passed them by i shot them for money i killed them for glory i'm here to testify to tell you the story good fella mercy ain't no friend of mine he pissed me off, quite some time ago made me vanish into dust reminded me not to trust by a bullet in my chest call me the slaughterer but all names shall not count not as much as the damage that i caused here in town good fella mercy ain't no friend of mine he pissed me off, quite some time ago made me vanish into dust reminded me not to trust by a bullet in my chest watch them flying watch them floating watch them impale your flesh i'm deaf for your begging i want to share my collection of iron dragonflies good fella mercy ain't no friend of mine he pissed me off, quite some time ago made me vanish into dust reminded me not to trust by a bullet in my chest

Sunday 03:51
lyrics
i´m waiting for your arrival we haven´t seen us for a long, long time the rain keeps falling down on the rooftop with irregularity i wait i try to wait on a sunday a rainy one the clouds are filled with selfdoubt see the raindrops they become a puddle of tears and loneliness longing for the sun to make it all much brighter and mutch easier i wait i try to wait on a sunday a rainy one the clouds are filled with selfdoubt more rain more clouds less hope more doubts you are the sun and I´m the day you were the one now washed away wait on a sunday a rainy one the clouds are filled with selfdoubt

The Tree 07:06
lyrics
over man and animal, i grew too tall but when I speak no one speaks to me at all i grew too high and now i'm lonely i wait, but what am i waiting for close to the clouds i'm sitting i wait for the first lightning

about

Die Neue
Der postmoderne Kunstgriff der Bonnies in die Kostümkiste der Popkultur. Der wohl schillerndste Mittelfinger in Richtung Plattenindustrie, den man weit und breit finden kann! Knallt, ballert und macht Spass. Die bunte Fabel, mit Plattenboss in der Rolle des bösen Wolfs und dem A&R als listigem Fuchs. Sieben Geißlein? Gefressen. Die sechs Bonnies? Auf dem Weg nach ganz oben. Die kompakten Hits (no filler, all killer!) sind der "Tenniscourt" auf dem einem die Hooks wie Tennisbälle zwischen Keyboard und Stimme um die Ohren pfeifen. Die Handschrift ist unverkennbar: The Bonny Situation ist eine waschechte BAND, die beweist, dass "Alleine-machen" bei Kanalisieren alles Positiven absolut aufgeht!

The new one
The Bonny's postmodern plot device out of the popcultural treasure chest of costumes. The most glistening one-finger salute in the direction of the music industrie. Smashes, criticises and is pure fun at one time! The colourful fable, with the label boss as the bad wolf and the A&R in the role of the foxy fox. Seven little kids? Eaten by the wolf. Six little Bonnies? On their way to the top! The compact hit wonders (no filler, all killer!) build the tennis court, on which the hooks, played by keys and vocals, fly around like tennis balls. The band's identity is now unmistakable! The Bonny Situation is a real BAND, that proves, that "doing it all on your own" can become something completely satisfying when every capacity is canalised into the right direction.
