Marunouchi Sadistic

The reward's on the parallel lines after joining a company
I love Tokyo but there's nothing there
 
Gimme a Rickenbacker 620
Don't have the 190,000 Ochanomizu
 
It's so rough I get off on the smell of the Marshall
Every night I'm just going to the top
Making one Rat the tools of my trade
And then I trip when Benji reflects in my lungs
 
Lately been playing cops in Ginza
Even when you cross the border all glories must fade
 
Gimme a receipt
No tax accountants here Korakuen
 
In the future I want you to be a monk and get married
Every night on your bed just playing games
I wanna try being a pizza place girl
And then Benji smacks me with his Gretch
 
Blue bite it and come for me
I said I'll go home on the last train Ikebukuro
 

I waited for you

I still don't know how come you're leaving like this,
And how come you're returning? my heart is again smiling,
How am I still hearing just silly stories? I'm fed up!
So if you're leaving now, then don't come back tomorrow,
 
How can the middle of the day, feel like a dream?
You appeared in front of me all of a sudden,
How did it all stop? the pain gone?
How were you in seconds, happy already?
How were you in seconds, happy already?
 
I still don't know...
 
I loved you, I waited for you,
I did it all only for you,
You glanced over at me, you ridiculed me,
I wanted you in my arms,
I wanted you close to me,
 
I still don't know...
 

The Room

Versions: #2
In an empty room there is no door
And teeth marks on the fingers
The lamp lights up yellow slogans
Words of boredom
And words porous
 
Food is good in me and you
Milk in a glass and a cake on your lips
Wake me up, wake me up
 
In an empty room someone's things
And dirty love in stains
The afternoon radiates a warm smell
The smell of boredom and the words of boredom
 
Food is good in me and you
Milk in a glass and a cake on your lips
 
Wake me up, wake me up
Kiss me, kiss me
 

The Clarinet

Put what you present to a girl and say, 'I sound good with the clarinet'
Put that she understands something else and immediately winks at you
Put that you are a pure artist and this thing certainly does not make a good impression
'The clarinet, that goes filù filù filù filà'
Put that she is not an artists and with music she has no pleasure:
The clarinet is brought down already
There is no emotion, no satisfaction to dream of playing the clarinet
It is an particular instrument that needs accompaniment
But where a small clarinet dreams of playing with a jazz clarinet
To make a few pieces, to make this filù filù filù filà
I look for it like this beautiful Titina looks for a little guitar to make some swing
While the clarinet sping . . .born like this out of the blues
A-hum! A-hum! A-hum!... A-hum! A-hum! A-hum!
Without the little guitar you're not able to miss a sveltina in do C
So how do I some filù filù filù filà
I look for it like this beautiful Titina looks for a little guitar to make some swing
While the clarinet sping . . .born like this out of the blues
I look for it like this beautiful Titina looks for a little guitar to make some swing
While the clarinet sping . . .born like this out of the blues
 

Turn me on

Sometimes I feel that I could
Express by colors that I'm yours
And that I could hear in every song
That you also miss me
And the way your heart beats in loneliness,
Even though you are far away.
 
Come on and turn me on.
When I feel low on the nights you are not here,
Only memories are left.
I feel low on the nights you are not here.
Come on, turn me on.
 
You don't know
That when you're gone
I have a hundred reasons which make me shout
That I miss you, that I really miss you.
'Maybe it's better like this'
Is what people tell me.
I don't care of what they say.
Everything I got to say to you is:
 
Come on and turn me on.
When I feel low on the nights you are not here,
Only memories are left.
I feel low on the nights you are not here.
Come on, turn me on.
 
When I feel low on the nights you are not here,
Only memories are left.
I feel low on the nights you are not here.
Come on, turn me on.
 
I know that
From your heart
You want me to be yours,
Yours...
 
When I feel low on the nights you are not here,
Only memories are left.
I feel low on the nights you are not here.
Come on, turn me on.
 

First sign of Spring

When winter long remains
you're waiting for a sunny moment
A sign and you already know -
the time is close
 
Night and cold a memory remain,
when your world smiles
 
With you together until the end
We'll forget all sorrows
When spring blooms again
The sun warms us with gentle caress
and life follows it's plan
When spring within us blooms
 
Warm wind caresses you
No ice or snow
You've turned the page,
And the forest awakes
 
The clouds disappear and the sky is glowing
 
With you again together we'll be
When spring within us blooms
 
- When will I grow antlers?
- Very soon, if we're really alike.
- Are we?
- There is only one way to find out!
 
When spring within us blooms,
A new season has warmed
The father and son -
Everything around them grows with joy
Every minute they are closer,
The feeling becomes stronger
 
Together till the end
We'll forget all sorrows
When spring again blooms
And the sun warms us with gentle caress
Life follows it's plan
When spring within us blooms
When spring within us blooms
When spring within us blooms
 

On The Dark Roads

The small lady
with the small dog
sits on her regular bench
the dog doesn't move
maybe he sleeps or something
but the lady tells him about her children
the ones she never had after all
 
Everything on these dark roads
is easy for me, a loved one
I'm just thinking of those
who don't get their share
who are left without anyone
we are made for each other
for the shards of each other's sorrows
everything on these dark roads
is easy then
 
The little boy, around twelve
screams 'Wake up, you piece of shit!' to his dad
he can't cry
since strong ones never do
the wind waves his hair
but nothing wakes him up
 
Everything on these dark roads
is easy for me, a loved one
I'm just thinking of those
who don't get their share
who are left without anyone
we are made for each other
for the shards of each other's sorrows
everything on these dark roads
is easy then
 
Everything on these dark roads
is easy for me, a loved one
everything on these dark roads
is easy then
 
Everything on these dark roads
is easy for me, a loved one
I'm just thinking of those
who don't get their share
who are left without anyone
we are made for each other
for the shards of each other's sorrows
On these dark roads I would like to be
the one for them
the one to lean on
 

My Kingdom of the Heart (Reprise)

ROLLO
What (used to) filled my heart
I've lost (now)
 
DARIA
Also lost
 
ROLLO
There was no-one else like her
So kindhearted1 and warm
 
DARIA
But he was my life2
 
ROLLO
She was all (of) my life
 
DARIA
Where could he be?3
 
ROLLO
If only I could tell her
 
DARIA
I am alone
 
ROLLO
And take her by the hand4
And hold her in (my) arms5
 
DARIA
All my whole life
 
ROLLO
All my life
 
BOTH
I'd give for6
One moment
 
DARIA
(Of) just being with him7
 
ROLLO
To be by her
 
DARIA
Now it lies shattered8
 
BOTH
Lifeless, cold and pale
My kingdom of the heart
 
Meaning alludes me
I've lost all my courage9
As long as the memories hurt me so
 
Every shine now fades around me
Even music and dance don't excite me anymore
 
DARIA
How can10 I live like this?
 
ROLLO
Every day's the same
 
BOTH
It will never reign11 again
My kingdom of the heart
 

• 1. literally 'good of heart'
• 2. 'doch' adds emphasis, usually translating to 'just', 'only' or 'but'
• 3. literally 'Where does he like to be?'
• 4. literally 'and carry her in (my) hands'. 'Jemand auf Hände tragen' is also used as a phrase for 'wait(ing) on someone hand an foot'
• 5. literally 'and take her in (my) arms'
• 6. literally 'I'd trade (in) for'
• 7. literally 'just to be by him'. The idea translates better when taking this line and the three before it as one, giving 'I'd trade my whole life just for one moment with him'. The same goes for Rollo's line.
• 8. literally 'in shards'
• 9. literally 'I lack every courage'
• 10. literally 'should'
• 11. literally 'exist'

A flower of dreams

If to the amulet of your heart
I could get used at least
Just for burying my loneliness
I could meet you secretly
If you drink sake somewhere
Call me softly
I can't stay away from the phone until late at night
Because I always wait for you
I understand that I'm someone who can't love
But my feelings get worse
Even if it's for a short time
And then sadness comes
Could you make bloom a flower of dreams?
 
On the corner of your heart
Let me live at least
Because I like it to the extent that I want to cry
It's fine even if I only meet you
'If tomorrow is useless, the day after
Surely will be a good day'
I say to myself in the mirror
Loading my chest with tears
Everybody says I'm someone who can't love
But they don't understand the pain of my heart
Someday, the crying day might come
Even if the farewell season comes
Could you make bloom a flower of spring?
Could you make bloom a flower of dreams?

Bird II (I'm Alone in this Madness)

Rest a bit, but don't take long
So we can find the limit that will remain
Relax a while, but don't goof off
So we can see the mess that will happen
 
Then, she can't stop thinking about coming back
Then, how to say no?
Only if you strike a poker face
A poker face
 
Say that it's too soon
So when it's time to attack
To attack
It's to aim and be lethal
And be sure
That I'm alone in this madness
 
Rest a bit, but don't take long
So we can find the limit that will remain
Relax a while, but don't goof off
So we can see the mess that will happen
 
Then, I see the redeemer
Then, do you remember our love?
That was already over
It barely started
 
As it's nice to think of it
So when I give in
When I give in
And live a real love
And be sure
That I'm alone in this madness
 
I'm alone in this madness...
I'm alone in this madness...

Prince Ali (Disney's Aladin)

(Make way for Prince Ali!)
(Say hey! It's Prince Ali!)
 
Hey! Clear the way in the old bazaar
Hey you! Let us through!
It's a bright new star!
Oh come, be the first on your block to meet his eye!
 
Make way! Here he comes!
Ring bells! Bang the drums!
Oh! You're gonna love this guy!
 
Prince Ali! Fabulous he!
Ali Ababwa
Genuflect, show some respect, down on one knee!
Now, try your best to stay calm
Brush up your Sunday salaam
Then come and meet his spectacular coterie
 
Prince Ali!
Mighty is he!
Ali Ababwa
Strong as ten regular men, definitely!
(He faced the galloping hordes)
(A hundred bad guys with swords)
Who sent those goons to their lords?
Why, Prince Ali
 
(He's got seventy-five golden camels)
Don't they look lovely, June?
(Purple peacocks, he's got fifty-three)
Fabulous Harry, I love the feathers!
When it comes to exotic-type mammals
(Has he got a zoo?)
(I'm telling you, it's a world-class menagerie)
 
Prince Ali! Handsome is he, Ali Ababwa
That physique! How can I speak, weak at the knee
Well, get on out in that square
Adjust your veil and prepare
To gawk and grovel and stare at Prince Ali!
 
(He's got ninety-five white Persian monkeys
He's got the monkeys, let's see the monkeys
And to view them he charges no fee
He's generous, so generous
He's got slaves, he's got servants and flunkies
Proud to work for him
They bow to his whim love serving him
They're just lousy with loyalty to Ali! Prince Ali!)
 
Prince Ali!
Amorous he! Ali Ababwa
Heard your princess was a sight lovely to see
And that, good people, is why he got dolled up and dropped by
(With sixty elephants, llamas galore
With his bears and lions
A brass band and more
With his forty fakirs, his cooks, his bakers
His birds that warble on key
Make way for Prince Ali!)
 

Call Me

I don't hear from you anymore
You're not by my side anymore
You said you needed to find yourself
And I understand, some people need to disappear to find themselves
But I know there will be nights
Where your mind can't control your feet
And you end up at my door
If so, the key is in the same place as before, ey
 
I am up for waiting and waiting
For letting time pass
You know no one else is better at waiting than me
And if it so happens
If the situation allows
That you want to have a reunion with me
And remember old times
 
Then call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
Yeah, call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
You know what it is...
 
You don't need to tell me anything
To me nothing has changed
You have your ghosts just like me, yeah
We like each other's ghosts anyway, ow
We don't need to hurry
The good old 'one step at a time'
But we'll take those steps to the beat
And then dance together into the night, ah
 
I am up for waiting and waiting
For letting time pass
You know no one else is better at waiting
And if it so happens

I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
Yeah, call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is

I know who you're talking to
And the lies they're making up
But have they seen us together?

I know who you're talking to
And the lies they're making up
But have they seen us together?
They haven't seen us together
 
Then call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
Yeah, call me, call me, call me
I still have the same old number
You know what it is, you know what it is
You know what it is...
 

Un-break My Heart

Let me forget this pain,
let me stay with you.
Dry my tears, embrace me and calm me.
Remove this heavy burden of sorrow and sadness from my soul.
Only we can bring back our happiness.
 
Hurry, put back together the fragments of our hearts.
Let them forget their hurt
and beat in unison.
There are no more tears, just the dream
of our hearts on fire...
 
There were no wounding words,
nor the sound of fading footsteps.
Don't remember, don't believe
that I could have shut the door.
'Forgive me, come back!' Such is life.
Who's to blame now?
Only we can destroy our happiness...
 
Put the fragments of our hearts firmly back in place!
Let them forget their hurt
and beat in unison.
There are no more tears, this dream has brought back
The memories of the fire in our heart...
 
Let me forget this pain,
let me stay with you.
Only we can bring back our happiness.
 
Un-break my heart!
Say you'll love me again!
Undo this hurt you caused
when you walked out the door
And walked outta my life un-cry these tears.
I cried so many, many nights.
Un-break my heart...
 
Un-break my heart.
Oh, baby.
Come back and say you love me.
Un-break my heart sweet darlin'
Without you I just can't go on!
Can't go on.
 
The fire in our hearts.
(The fire in our hearts)
The fire in our hearts.
(The fire in our hearts)
Fire...

Mariners Apartman Kompleks

Uzeo si moju tugu is konteksta
U Mariners apartmanu komplex
Ja nisam sveća na vetru
 
Ja sam zavrtanj, munja, grom
Tip devojke zbog koje ćeš se zapitati
Ko si ti
I ko si bio
 
I ko sam bila sa tobom na ovim plažama
Tvoja Venecijanska kučka, tvoja izdržljivost, tvoja slabost
Možda bih te mogla spasiti od tvojih grehova
 
Zato, poljubi nebo i šapni Isusu
Moj, moj, moj, pronašao si ovo, treba ti ovo
Udahni duboko, dušo,
Pusti me unutra
 
Gubiš svoj put
Uzmi me za ruku
Izgubljen si na moru
Onda ću pozvati tvoj brod ka meni ponovo
Ne gledaj predaleko
Tačno gde si
Tamo sam ja
Ja sam tvoj čovek
Ja sam tvoj čovek
 
Zamerili su moju ljubaznost zbog slabosti
Sjebala sam se, znam to ali Isuse
Zar ne može devojka samo učiniti najbolje što može?
 
Uhvati talas i uzmi slatkoću
Razmisli o tome, tama, dubina
Sve stvari koje me čine onim što jesam
 
I ko sam ja
Je veliki vernik
Da ljudi mogu da se promene
Ali ne moraš da je ostaviš
Kada svi pričaju
Ti možes stajati
 
Jer čak i u mraku osecam tvoj otpor
Možeš videti moje srce kako gori u daljini
Dušo, dušo, dušo, ja sam tvoj čovek
 
Gubiš svoj put
Uzmi me za ruku
Izgubljen si na moru
Onda ću pozvati tvoj brod ka meni ponovo
Ne gledaj predaleko
Tačno gde si
Tamo sam ja
Ja sam tvoj čovek
Ja sam tvoj čovek
 
Uhvati talas i uzmi slatkoću
Uzmi slatkost
Želiš ovo, treba ti ovo
Jesi li spreman za to?
Jesi li spreman za to?
Jesi li spreman za to?

Rekindle the spark

Child, what do you want to be
When others produce dreams
When all of them around you
Are directed or written
Watch out what you give for money
Traps are laid out
Stare them in the eyes
And don't let them change you
 
And there's people of good that tell you to give up
But when the heart shouts, I say you listen to it
 
Rekindle the spark, there will be a fire
If you shove your elbows room will be made
Do the first step, it isn't far away
Be what you want to be, you've got nothing to lose
Because you can't lose what you never had
Just make the first step, it isn't far away
 
There's no point in being sad
Life's just a game
You can make it paradise
Hurry up because it will pass
 
Enjoy today
You'll find reasons for sure
Laugh at all that's fake
And don't let that change you.
 
And there's people of good that tell you to give up
But when the heart shouts, I say you listen to it
 
Rekindle the spark, there will be a fire
If you shove your elbows room will be made
Do the first step, it isn't far away
Be what you want to be, you've got nothing to lose
Because you can't lose what you never had
Just make the first step, it isn't far away
 
My mom told me to live every day like it was the last
And to dance when the songs come on
When you have something to say, child don't hesitate
Life is simple, just live it and don't complicate it
 
I said like Gopo to animate it nicely
I feel like Simo on a final of Roland Garros
Oo, and the money's not controlling me
When I go all-in with ten-seven like Negreanu, yo
 
And if I'll cop it, I'll do like Bute
Because life can sometimes also shake you
But it's nothing, it's nothing and whatever it would be
I've got wings from the trend, from Henri
 
I fly with the thought and so I see them all
I pass through India with flair from Eliade, ah
Don't say that the plea doesn't hold
Because I'll raise my eyebrow now higher than Anastasia
 
God, guide my steps
If I'll step in void, make it be like Hagi
And if it goes up in smoke
I will smile like Mr. Iancu
 
Rekindle the spark, there will be a fire
If you shove your elbows room will be made
Do the first step, it isn't far away
Be what you want to be, you've got nothing to lose
Because you can't lose what you never had
Just make the first step, it isn't far away
 

Princess blood

I strayed into the deep darkness, wanting to save everything... that way
 
Thus the world loses its light, fearing the corrupted things we made
And thus I face them alone, wondering whether I can regain the things that were lost
 
I want to protect the things I love... Since these dreams
cannot be broken... I will never be controlled by anyone
 
I strayed into the deep darkness, If I were to save you
That's right...there is nothing...to be afraid of
The obligation...that I feel
Is just to protect your happiness to the end
 
Thus the era is divided into two and the cycle of rebirth keeps going on
And thus I face it alone, wondering whether I can lock the things that were lost
 
I want to remember the people I love...since no matter what
I will not allow them to be hurt...I am the one to protect my home
 
In the days of waging war that I committed to memory we both knew our destiny
There is another way...we can keep on living
I will...hold my pride
Never looking back...as I think of you
 
I will never break down...I will never be controlled by anyone
 
I strayed into the deep darkness, If I were to save you
That's right...there is nothing...to be afraid of
The obligation...that I feel
Is just to protect your happiness to the end
 

Sunk in a corner

Versions: #3
I write to you in a corner
Where you have always had me
In solitude
 
Sunk in a corner
Between the dust and oblivion,
I leave this letter,
Looking for an end to this pain
 
I feel like I'm dying
But I couldn't live, like that anymore
I write to you in a corner
 
Oh poor me, alone in a corner
Oh poor me, with only my heart
Sunk in a corner
 
You went squeezing
Between my hands and my dreams
And the years
 
Many years that you had me
What did you leave me?
Sunk in solitude
 
I feel the thick air,
I can not breathe anymore
 
You hurt me to the bone
While I try to sing this song,
Sunk in a corner
 
Oh poor me, alone in a corner
Oh poor me, with only my heart
 
And sunk
And drowned my heart
In a corner
And sunk
And drowned my heart
In a corner
 
Oh me, it's just me here
Sunk in a corner
 
Uh yeah, uh yeah, how much solitude
Uh yeah, uh yeah, how much solitude
 

Plagues

Versions: #2
Choir:
Hear the words of the Lord, hear the words of the Lord
The people weren't released, against their own will
So I will send to Egypt
 
I will send pestilence and death
Into your house, into your bed
Into every rivere, in every road
Down into your wine, so be prepared
 
And upon your cattle, all the sheep
And all the oxen that walk here
In every dream, in every night
Until you give up, until you understand
This will be quick
At the gates of Hell
Hear the words of the Lord
 
Moses:
You who was my brother
Once your company and your laughter
Was everything I could wish for
 
Choir:
I send lighting down from the sky
I send balls of gas and fire

I still wish that the Lord would've chosen someone else
To be forced to bring you harm
It's the last thing I could wish for
 
Choir:
A storm of dangers that will destroy every town and every field
 
Moses:
Here was my home
All the desolation and pain gives my heart deep wounds
All the people who suffer because you don't understand

I'll send swarms of locusts
Such as the world has never seen
On every lead, on every stalk
Until there's no greenery left
 
I oblige you, I'm done
Hear the words of the Lord
 
Moses:
You who was my brother
Say, how can you just stand there and watch?
 
Choir:
I'll obligate the people for what they've done
 
Moses:
Let my people go
Hear the words of the Lord
 
Moses and choir:
Hear the words of the Lord
 
Rameses:
You who was my brother
Hating me, how can I understand that?
Is this what you want?
 
Choir:
A flood of blood, it's said and done
 
Rameses:
So shall my heart harden
No matter how much you hiss and make a ruccus
It will not happen
You will never see your people go
 
Moses and choir:
Hear the words of the Lord!
 
Rameses:
No, you will never see your people go!
 
Moses:
Let my people go

Heart earrings

Stay with me. The rain
Turns to snow on the pavement
The windows of an empty café are clouded white
Stay with me. Do you like
My heart earrings?
I murmur lying that someone else gave them to me
 
Chide me gently. Aren't you jealous?
Did you cool down?
I don't want to believe the rumors of that girl
But if they were true, clear them up for me
 
Stay with me. You wanted to see
The roadshow
Don't say you went there before with her
Stay with me. Since it's irritating
I'll go skiing
With a made-up boyfriend
 
Chide me gently. Hold me like a man
Say 'you are mine'
I'll try to laugh about her with my friends
And I'll immediately forgive you
 
Did you just say goodbye?
I didn't understand because you were too far
 
Chide me gently. I'm not obedient
Don't stand from your chair so quickly
Watching you leave, I took off my earrings
If I throw them to the street, probably the snow will hide them
When the spring comes, I'll forget you

Erase

When I close my eyes
I can feel even the warm breeze on that day
Guess I was feeling your breath
Passing by my nose
 
I though I would forever be with you
Even if the world deceives me
 
As the time passes
Little by little
You will get further too
As long as I breathe I won't be able to erase you
So you're thickening even more
 
I can't even call you out
In front of the beautiful sunset
With the thought of you laughing on that day
I paint you even thicker
 
I though I would forever be with you
Even if the world deceives me
 
As the time passes
Little by little
You will get further too
As long as I breathe I won't be able to erase you
So you're thickening even more
Because for me each and every past day is precious
 
As the time passes
Everything will blur little by little
Even the moment I was loving
Even my colored heart - all of it will get erased in the end
 

Love

Brothers of love, daughters of desire
The night rain sings to you about it
From above always somebody is pointing
What you dream about is in your hands
 
The love is swaying on the waves and it has a few names
Sometimes stupid sometimes wise casts a shadow on the earth
Love flies with wind when it comes from dreams
Who will catch it can fly with them as well
Can fly with them as well
 
Mothers of pride, masters of sin
The morning frost is healing you
Nobody will stop you from flying
You have in your hands not only what you´ll reach
 

Memory

I´m only your memory
Which you can scare away or call back
Neither small nor big one and even without a name
 
I´m flying between clouds
A glimpse, I´m breathing the whole world
I´ll breathe in flavors, scent, colors, names, a net full of feelings
I see also those who don´t like me
But I can recognise the ones that want to remember
 
I will be your memory
Which you can call back or scare away
Neither small nor big one
You will unfold your nets with me
 

A Peculiar Dust

The night always shows some secrets
People are defending islands
Shadows will tell you more
There is no love, no hate
The is only a desire to go somewhere
Tell me, tell me more
 
Human is only a peculiar dust
Sprinkled on roads
A gunpowder or the one from desert maybe
Light a match and the fight will start
 
The morning rain has already stopped
The one that opened our wounds
We know more things
The drops are like gun rounds
They will split us into two pieces
We know more things
Lighted a match and the fight ended
 

At the Very Top

Versions: #2
When you went to school, you did so under protest
It wasn't quite for you
Your grades were quite bad as well
But today you get through life pretty well
 
You always wanted to be numer one
And hear a thousand people scream your name
If you happen to be out of sorts
You'll give it another try tomorrow
 
Like from outer sapce (like from outer space)
You hear the old chant
And then you realise again
That everything used to be different
And then you remember
That you started from scratch
 
Chorus:
One day, you'll be at the very top
(If you want it, if you really want it)
One day, you'll be at the very top
(At the top, athe very top)
The whole world has found out
That you won't hide your light anymore
One day, you'll be at the very top
 
Now you've travelled the world
You boozed with bums, you dined with princes
You met people who don't even exist
You despised some of them and you loved some of them
Standing still is not your thing
Every day, you go back into the ring
From time to time you'll be knocked down
At least you'll get to look at the stars
 
Like from outer sapce (like from outer space)
You hear the old chant
 
Chorus:
One day, you'll be at the very top
(If you want it, if you really want it)
One day, you'll be at the very top
(At the top, athe very top)
The whole world has found out
That you won't hide your light anymore
One day, you'll be at the very top
 
Children:
One day I'll be a trumpeter
I'll be an insurance salesman
I'll be a formula 1 driver
I hope I won't be an idiot
 
No matter what happens tomorrow
No matter what happens tomorrow
No matter what happens tomorrow
No matter what happens tomorrow
 
One day, you'll be at the very top
(If you want it, if you really want it)
One day, you'll be at the very top
(At the top, athe very top)
The whole world has found out
That you won't hide your light anymore
You will stand in the light
Cast off
And everybody accepts it
 
One day, you'll be at the very top
(If you want it, if you really want it)
One day, you'll be at the very top
(At the top, athe very top)
The whole world has found out
That you won't hide your light anymore
 
One day, you'll be at the very top
(If you want it, if you really want it)
One day, you'll be at the very top
(At the top, athe very top)
 
One day, you'll be at the very top
(If you want it, if you really want it)
One day, you'll be at the very top
 

Lullaby

Close your eyes, go to sleep!
You don't have to be sad!
You know:
I'm always here for you.
 
Don't make that face!
Please don't cry!
Come, I will tuck you in.
And when you dream,
I look a you,
Becaus I like to do that.
 
Close your eyes, go to sleep!
You don't have to be sad!
You know:
I'm always here for you.
 
Do you know how great it is,
When you're happy?
No one laughs like you.
But today was awful for you.
Please cry no more
And close your eyes.
 
You know, I'm not indifferent,
When I see you like this.
But believe me: when the night is over,
It won't hurt anymore.
 
Close your eyes, go to sleep!
You don't have to be sad!
You know:
I'm always here for you.
 

The Mosquitoes Have Eaten Up My Darling

Mosquitoes have eat up my darling,
They only left the big toes,
This is to make corks,
It's to seal my half full bottles.
 
Your father looks like an elephant,
And your mother looks like a car,
And your little brother looks like a bullfrog,
Your little sister looks like the corner of the sidewalk.
 

We don't care for the stars

Aquarius knows what he can do.
Cancer comes by someday.
Taurus doesn't wants to be an ox.
Virgo is not letting just everyone in.
Capricorn needs a good plan.
Leo has megalomania.
 
Refrain:
I fly with you through Outer Space.
We don't care for the stars (the stars can go screw themselves!)
Come, fly with me again!
We don't care for the stars.
 
Gemini talks to much.
Sagittarius hits the bull's eye.
Scorpio never slacks off.
Pisces dives to the inside.
Libra say's neither yes or no.
Aries wants to be up front.
 
Refrain
 
It stood inside the horoscope:
You and me, there is no point.
But the stars in your eyes tell me:
You still love me.
Astrologers lie!
 

In the white duvets

Freeze behind the window and in eyes glowing sparks
Everybody has the main role in this Christmas day
There is no sadness or crying
Nobody is saying goodbye
I want to fly in the white duvets
 
White stars are dancing above us
It is the most beautiful dream that I have
I don´t sense the world around me
I can´t close my eyes in the night
I want to fly in the white duvets
 
Every wish becomes the Christmas star
It is going down here to us
The magic of Christmas can know just one who has a desire in his heart
I want to fly in the white duvets
 
On this day for a while I am becoming a little boy,
Who believes in his memories
The world around us is opening
Can´t get lost in the soul by heart
I want to fly in the white duvets
 
Every wish becomes the Christmas star
It is going down here to us
The magic of Christmas can know just one who has a desire in his heart
I want to fly in the white duvets
 
Every wish becomes the Christmas star
It is going down here to us
The magic of Christmas can know just one who has a desire in his heart
I want to fly in the white duvets
 

Glass apples

The pale moon rises on the east
On the slope of the hill, the cosmos sways
 
I close my eyes in your arms
Take care of me. My heart look broken
Like glass apples
 
Every time I'm loved, I ge coward
If I lose you, my world will be empty
 
The sweetness is behind your smile
Everything becomes transparent
Like glass apples
 
'I love you'
I murmured faintly
Without being listened, you shook
And bit your finger
 
I close my eyes in your arms
The painful dyes in red
Like glass apples
Like glass apples

Wedding Flowers

Today I celebrate
The day of love, which, perhaps,
you too remember.
Loud music rocked
Unending and without beginning.
All gifted us flowers.
 
They were whiter than snow
Wedding flowers.
You'd smile at me,
This was as though in a dream.
Pure bouquet of hope.
Wedding flowers,
Wedding flowers,
Still live in me.
 
It could be that in our life [there will be] many
Such days like this, perhaps.
Do you know?
Everyone around in magical colors
Forever tender caresses -
You and, of course, flowers.
 
They were whiter than snow
Wedding flowers.
You'd smile at me,
This was as though in a dream.
Pure bouquet of hope.
Wedding flowers,
Wedding flowers,
Still live in me.
 

Everywhere

Versions: #2
We glow in the dark
But you have yet to recognise us
We were sent down from heaven
We might be your relatives
 
We've come from the stars
To be very close to you
We want to get to know you
You are not alone
 
We are everywhere
In the park and in boardrooms
We are everywhere
In tower blocks1 and in basement garages
We are everywhere
 
We're looking for your smile
Because it will tell us so much about you
It makes you look so pretty
Just as pretty as your planet
 
The space centre is sending us down here
To let you in on our plan:
The cosmos is sending signals
You are not alone
 
We are everywhere
In taxis and in banks
We are everywhere
In department stores and in productions halls
We are everywhere
 
The space centre is sending us down here
To let you in on our plan:
The cosmos is sending signals
You are not alone
 
We are everywhere
In the town hall and in kindergartens
We are everywhere
In the zoo and on business cards
We are everywhere
In cinemas and on school trips
We are everywhere
 
We are everywhere
On the radio and in your room
We are everywhere
Believe in us, for we are always
Everywhere!
