turning and turning and turning around
over and over and over again
say what you wanna say
you're speaking another language
provato a vivere insieme
non vedo futuro
rotazione, rotazione, rotazione, rotazione
intorno, intorno, intorno, intorno
say what you wanna say
you're speaking another language
provato a vivere insieme
non vedo futuro
as you walked out of time
i tried to stop to cry
what tomorrow brings
we will see
i grief
say what you wanna say
you're speaking another language
provato a vivere insieme
non vedo futuro

Buxus Musicus
03:47
|
|
||
they have been some unsuccessful musicians
for a so long and thirsty time
but then some guys from far away
said, hey would you like to become well-known
but we have played so long our private, soulful songs
made by us and not by the music box
is it all worth it, to turn the hourglass
the sand runs down into the music box
zero zero zero
they will praise you as heroes
isn't that what you wanted to become
don't think about the silly lyrics
and meaningless melodies
but we have played so long our private, soulful songs
made by us and not by the music box
is it all worth it, to turn the hourglass
the sand runs down into the music box
what shall we do
walk with them
sing that monotonous melodies
or change the key
and still do what we adore
we prefer to play our good old, soulful songs
they aren't silly and not meaningless
fill up the hourglass
fuck machinery
don't jump into, jump over the music box

Two Lazy Apes
03:49

|

i know some guys from outer space
they lost their dice and felt in disgrace
two lazy apes are on the run
a tribute to the sun
they came into our universe
to find the treasure that once was lost
a box of matches been the key
swimming in a little steamy sea
lord we pray every day
every day we pray
you got to believe in what i say
you are it
and they want to take you back home
right to the place where they came from
right to their place
why are they here
what do they know
that's the question
that's the town
sky of black and rivers red
don't let them pump fear into your head
don't say your name
don't nod your head
don't jump into the rivers of red
two lazy apes are on the run
a tribute to the sun
you got to believe in what i say
you are it
and they want to take you back home
right to the place where they came from
right to their place
one, two step follow
following the apes
to be on offer
all the things you hate
but when we're alone
and feel the stone
we have a moan
you got to believe in what i say
you are it
and they want to take you back home
right to the place where they came from
right to their place

Tangled Mass
03:49

|

more rolling times are what we need
no uniform
we kept to keep
busted stuff is in our view
tangled mass
we put it through
we don't need reflection
we don't care
it doesn't bother us
we don't dare to ask for help
more rolling times are what we need
acting fools
we kept to keep
our view is busted stuff
thankless tasks
we don't dare to ask
we don't need reflection
we don't care
it doesn't bother us
we don't dare to ask for help
get through
we don't need reflection
we don't care
it doesn't bother us
we don't dare to ask for help
'cause what you see is what you want to be

The Book Of Great Value
02:58

your fingers are not connected
to what we call sense
so you better stop
to use them like this
we have done a lot of things
which are not much worth to be
but what we don't really need
is more needless commentaries
so just shut the fuck up
into the black and white
white the paper, black the word
just think before you act
that is the index of respect
we have done a lot of things
which are not much worth to be
but what we don't really need
is more needless commentaries
so just shut the fuck up

Pistolero (Acoustic)
02:41
|
|
||
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
