If you want to be born again
I want to be with you
And hold your hand
Buy you flour
Watch you make bread
Miracles every day
If you want to move on
I know God will meet you at the dawn
You tought me everything I know
Always give and your soul
Your soul will grow
No one can take your smile away
If it is coming from love
I know you don't want a thing
Just sit here and have a drink
Let's share this moment together
Cause I will be with you forever
Be with you

First Journey To Sun
02:57
|

I travelled to sun
It was yesterday
On it's surface
Stood Fred Astaire
He says, well boy
Would you like to dance
No, I said, I'm here for stamps
Go back home then, you'll catch a cold
You're too old and don't understand
I need stamps, they are for my mom
She's the best woman
Need to get her some sun
Oooh, I see, but you have to wait
See, genitor is not awake and the Sun is in moon
They're with Howlin' Wolf
Won't be home so soon
Postman is dead, we saved his head
If you love her so
We'll put your love to test
Take this ray and make a nest
For 49 days straight, you will not rest
Then you'll get your stamps
And we'll send you to France
There wll be your mom
Sittin' on a fence
Give her stamps and her heart will grow
Bigger than Sun
Give her stamps and her heart will grow
Bigger than Sun
You could live there
Do you see where
If you see it, then you know
I know, I know
I'm a funny guy
But I'm ready to go

James said
Groove is in your heart
I say groove is the dart
Gonna make your pain stop
And then you'll know
If you want to reign as king
You need to take a blow
I really don't know how to rap
I'm just here to show my respect
I ain't no black
Sometimes I feel like I am
Most motherfuckers just
Don't give a damn
At least what I can give to you
Is this song to make you feel good
Can we make Detroit great again
I believe we can, yes we can
Funk out
Funk out right Detroit
Don't be paranoid
Baybe, light a joint
Rappers, ravers, cowboys
Let's all rejoice
Feeling good now
Is a matter of choice
From Downtown to Great Lakes
Shake your ass and dance
Stake your claim on
A great romance
Stay tight to the groove
Your heart approves
Get your mojo back
And start to swagger
It's the funk time now
There ain't no after
Beat is the hammer
Gonna crush your anger
Forget about fashion
'Cause funk is the glamour
Funk out
Funk out right Detroit
Don't be paranoid
Baybe, light a joint
Rappers, ravers, cowboys
Let's all rejoice
Feeling good now
Is a matter of choice

Gravedigger's Woman
02:50
|

I met this
Gravediggers's woman
You know, she got
The boneyard blues
Knows all about me
And thinks we're fools
I said
Can you give us something
To help us jump on moon
She just laughed and said
Well, I've got a pistol in my bed
Right about midnight
I thought it was noon
Her head was shining
Strawberries were in bloom
I gazed in wonder
My heart was beating
Upside down
Take your time and wonder, baybe
Then she said
I've seen so many dead
You know, your hair ain't bad
Please don't kiss me, you know
I don't make bed
I make grave
I kissed her
Said, baybe I don't care
I know a gipsy who will
Make me undead
Can you tell me, baybe
Is this ashtray a grave
She said, I've been to
Doctors and the medicine men
Asked them to make me medication, please
They did nothing, so I begged on my knees
And then the nurse comes in
Gives me sugar cane
She said, five times a day, just dig a grave
Pour whiskey in it and pray for rain
When I wanted to speak, she disappeared
I said baybe, baybe I need your love to unload my brain
I need your kisses not to go insane
I need your kisses not to go insane
You know, priests they say
You gotta be dead to live
By the first sunlight, I'm gonna make you a kid
She says, is this a bid
Can we do it in Madrid
What about your man, I said
How will he handle that
She said, ain't got no man
I'm all alone
Then my mind was blown
My soul did moan
Great life runnin'
In each and every bone
Take this stone and throw it in a grave
Maybe God will think: Oooh, it's they
We'll be free then
Headin' to the bay
Where sky is never grey
No ashtrays are graves

Jacques Brel

I felt like Jacques Brel
When you left your jail cell
Something inside me started to grow
I bet it was love
Bet it was love
My lips were shakin'
My body was achin
There'll be no more breakin'
Of lines and binds
Beetween earth and sky
Beetween love and goodbye
To love is to fly
Let's get out of here
Jump in Buick and grab a beer
Summer's great on Saturn
If you have no fear
If you have no fear
I met an old lady who sees the future
Coolers and butchers will end up in sewer
And the future belongs to the people with humour
Future belongs to the people with humour
Buick's tank is empty
If you have some fruits
That would help him
See, yesterday we flew to Rock City
To see where it all began
Stooges are back from their graves
Iggy wanted to say „hi“
But his bird is learning to fly
Iggy wanted to say "hi"
But his bird is learning how to fly
I'm sorry, my story is long
I talk too much
I talk too much
Let's steal a boat
Go out for lunch
My story is long
I talk too much
Let's steal a boat
Go out for lunch
I felt like Jacques Brel
When you left your jail cell
I talk too much
Let's steal a boat
Go out for lunch

Hide Your Tears
04:20
|

Hide your tears
They don't get it
What they give
They want back
They don't shine
They just reflect
They think that it's enough
To gain respect
Hide your tears
Hide your tears
You can cry to mountains
They have no fears
Mountains understand
You need to be free at sea and at land
If you want to get there
You have to steal some time
People will offer you
Food and wine
They will distract you
Make you interact
Life is worth fighting for
Life is worth fighting for
They'll do anything to get you back
Be strong and courageous
Or your spirit will live in a wreck
Alone, abandoned
With no one to share the beauty
It equivalents death
It's not the word to end this song
Life is worth fighting for
Is there a forward
If you can't rewind
Or is it just eternally now
You're a living part of eternity
What do you choose to be
What do you choose to be
It's not the word to end this song
Life is worth fighting for
With the thoughts
You feed your body
With the food
You feed your soul
You know about
The freedom groove
It's in the move
Wanna do something
You never did before
You have to try hard
Not to try no more
Wanna do something
You never did before
You have to try hard
Not to try no more

Summer is almost gone
But I don't want to cry
I cried so many times before
Now I want to make it a song
Beauty is easy to see
It's hard to keep it in your memory
Beauty so easy to find
You can't press button
And tell God to rewind
That's why I'm writing this down
Words are my bullets against time
Everytime I see the Sun
I'm gonna sing
Everytime I'm at sea
I'm gonna jump and swimm
Days burn with hot light
Their presence is felt in the dark
Remember this and keep it in your soul
Mighty Summer will never go
Days burn with hot light
Their presence is felt in the dark
Summer is almost gone
But I don't want to cry
I cried so many times before
Keep it in your soul
Mighty Summer will never go
Remember this
Keep it in your soul
Keep it in

Grandpa
03:10
|

His grandpa died
They cut off his leg
Last two years
He spent in bed
Then the family came
They gathered round and mourned
And he said
It's not why I was born
I'm goin' out to drink
Then I think
When I think
My thoughts drink
They scream in laughs
My grandpa still cares
I saw it in his eyes
When his soul flew
He dropped his disguise
I saw a clown-charmed-man
Whiskey, laughs, thighs and women
I don't know
But I'll keep it hid
My grandpa knew
I was always a kid
Was he from this world
Or was he just thrown
From the hands of gods
When they had
Few drinks more
I don't know
I don't know
But I'll keep it hid
My grandpa knew
I was always a kid
