Be a Bad Son 02:35
You got You got to find another hideout You gotta bleed a little bit, child Like a dog in a wolfpack zone It´s a cruel world You got to fight to feel welcome You need to write on your own tombstone (ou ‘Come on, write your tombstone’) And be a real bad-bad son Be a Bad Son Your god Your god is sleeping in a hot tub Is cheating your momma on a nightclub He’s a flop - Don’t you know, dear? Try now You got to find another hideout You got to stay awake all night And be a real bad-bad son Be a Bad Son

Don’t you realize She’s working to keep you alive Yes I can’t complain She’s bringing my home back again Grow-up, man-child You’re lost in… in a candy shop fire I never thought about it before I was wrong I was blind for sure Wake-up She’s getting tired Don’t you see her frozen smile Goddamn, you’re right I should have read all these signs Don’t you realize She’s working to keep you alive Yes I can’t complain She’s bringing my home back again

She is leaving town (3x) She is leaving town In a winter grey and blue She is leaving town With her suitcase and her hopes packed for you She is leaving town and her teardrop Is now frozen and… Lost in the woods All you fake people don't matter to me anymore All you fake people can't steal away my soul Here she goes now Ring the bells loud
4.
Your strange eyes All your fears behind You’re never relaxed, never controlled You’re just leaving All your strange words You’re afraid of folks You’re never relaxed Don’t want to be found You’re just leaving Just a sad traveling man Tell me where you think you’ll get Trying to be free Strange times When you hear the signs You’ re never relaxed You’re never controlled You’re just leaving Around the world You just got to run You’re never relaxed, Cause nobody told you, You just need me Just a sad traveling man Tell me where you think you’ll get Trying to be free

Unkind 03:58
You’re so unkind Never treat me right Some things must die But maybe love will come to shine When you say love is blind I wonder if you’re ever gonna Take me Along Let me Be yours Take me With you Allow me to enter into your world Will you be With me Will you Need me In this game I always say something wrong I think you lied Always treat me so cruel Can’t love be shared? Simple plans For just one truth Will you hate me when you realize I’m just like this I have no disguise Will you Leave me Alone With no words Disappear and Never let me be your helpless love Could you Turn on Your heart Be strong This time I know you always treated me like a stupid poet
6.
I have been thinking a lot in daytime Ain’t a good way to see it… All the daily fights and scandals It’s just the ashes of my dreams Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Now I’m trying to be stable But we shared a sinking lifeboat I think it’s time for you to go free When you think about happy endings Better stop, dear, and look around Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Are you mad at me? Da da dan dan dan Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I Walk Alone 03:38
The streets are on fire As I walk alone All that I had now is gone You keep hanging around Kicking my bones I feel like a stranger in my home I walk alone You treat me unkind You’re always doin’ wrong The streets are burning As I walk alone Got smoke in my eyes And coal in my lungs You keep hanging around Dropping bombs But I… Can do it on my own All my life I’ve slept on a bed of stones We know This is taking too long The streets are burning As I walk alone All that I had now is gone…
8.
Red Alert 03:41
Guess what I just don’t need you Forget about me somehow Just leave me in peace now I’m warning you, don’t be near I tell you A little secret I’ve lived with I never wanted you And right now I ‘m just burning Like a flag on fire And I’m done with the nightshift You better beware of me now Oh I can hurt you I’ll neutralize the pain In a way you can’t feel it I’ll try to explain the best way I can do it You can smile and ignore my reflections And try to resist and insist on this nightmare oh you can blame me And hate me And hate me But why don’t you think about the horror we’ve been in And the risk to pretend we can stand Why don’t you leave me
9.
It’s bleeding, baby And it looks pretty bad I’m a rat man moaning in a dying bed Bring me the doctor Bring me the pills Stop this fever Stop these chills Take back me to planet earth I wanna know I wanna know all about it Take me back, baby I wanna know I wanna know what it’s like Tell me the truth before dawn There’s a blackhole, baby Right in your eyes I cannot deal with that Kick me off Kill me fast Take me back to planet earth I wanna know I wanna know all about it Take me back, baby I wanna know I wanna know what it’s like

Dumbo 05:28
Don’t you know You’re a stranger in this town Don’t you know (don’t you know) You’re a stranger in this town (in this town) On the stage When you’re shining You can hear the claps and shouts But don’t you know (don’t you know) They see you as a clown Don’t you know You’re a stranger in this town Don’t you know (don’t you know) You’re a stranger in this town (in this town) You’re far away From your homeland And mama’s not around No place to fall No money or honey To make her proud Don’t you know You’re a stranger in this town Don’t you know (don’t you know) You’re a stranger in this town (in this town)

Work 04:35
Days, working all day Always, always, working all day It takes me too long (a long, long time my love) It takes me too long (a long, long time my love) Days, working all day Always, always, working all day Don’t get me wrong (I spent too much time on it) Don’t get me wrong (I waste too much life on it) I’ve been alone, doing my duties Thinking alone, why do I do this Why do I have to wait so long Until you, will you?
