Click on title for Lyrics
and not even where you’re coming from
Just by the way you’re walking,
the strings in my head are gettin’ strum
Yeah!
To me you look like an angel,
who left her wings at home
When you pass close to me your scent injects
certain wicked things in my dome
I tell you one of those things,
yes it’s true
I want to spend all the time in bed with you!
I want to spend all the time in bed with you!
Among hundreds of shapes and lights,
I see nothing but your face
You’re standing there alone, good!
Just a blind-shot and I start the chase
Right?
I need just one look from you,
to find out if I have a chance
Doesn’t every story always start
by simply asking for a dance
I know just one thing,
yes it’s true
I want to spend all the time in bed with you!
I want to spend all the time in bed with you!
Some people say,
for this way not every girl falls
After waiting for that look,
it’s just a matter of balls
And I’ve got two!
I want to spend all the time in bed with you!
I want to spend all the time in bed with you!
Big holes where the money goes
I look around and I can see no dare
Nobody talks but everyone knows
Rewarded thieves
Never solved crimes
Things that should not be seen
Someone disappears sometimes
I tell you this for free
It’s the only truth that comforts me
They allow to say
Crime doesn’t pay!
Don’t you know, don’t you know
Doesn’t pay
Crime doesn’t pay!
Don’t you know, don’t you know
Doesn’t pay
Right?
Don’t you think it’s enough?
Don’t you think it’s tough?
Organized crime
Sinkin’ poison-ships
Bombs settled with care
Elections won with the same greasy tricks
But there’s a thing I trust
Even if it’s fading in dust
I’m really sure that one day
Crime doesn’t pay!
Don’t you know, don’t you know
Doesn’t pay
Crime doesn’t pay!
Don’t you know, don’t you know
Doesn’t pay
You scratch my back and I scratch yours
This is what happens here everyday
It’s always hard to choose the right way!
You scratch my back and I scratch yours
Is what happens here everyday
It’s always hard..
It’s always hard to choose the right way!
They allow to say!
Crime doesn’t pay!
Don’t you know, don’t you know
Doesn’t pay
Crime doesn’t pay!
Don’t you know, don’t you know
Doesn’t pay
Crime doesn’t pay!
It’s just the same
You’re right
Wrong’s my only name
You don’t need to give up
To make your spirit free
I’m in love
Lost in your fields
Against your eyes
Baby, I hold no shields
A nervous breakdown
Is what you save for me
I think it’s nobody’s fault but mine
At last I’ve reached my borderline
I’m gonna jump into the void
If you are my rope, I better avoid
Another step will cost me a lot
I just hope to have no badly-tied knot
When you’re close
I don’t know
If I should push
or I should go
A dazzling light
Watchin’ you is what I see
Million ways
To spend your time
Sure I can’t hold
What isn’t mine
Do I want your love?
Or just desire to shake your tree?
I think it’s nobody’s fault but mine
At last I’ve reached my borderline
I’m gonna jump into the void
If you are my rope, I better avoid
Another step will cost me a lot
I just hope to have no badly-tied knot
Nervous breakdown
It’s what you gave to me
Yeah
Do you wanna see me explode?
Last drop has fallen, I’m overloaded
I’m on the borderline
Ready to explode!
I think it’s nobody’s fault but mine
At last I’ve reached my borderline
I’m gonna jump into the void
If you are my rope, I better avoid
Another step will cost me a lot
I just hope to have no badly-tied knot
To be honest not even my feet
But I can remember all my life
While I’m walking down this street
I’m back!
And I don’t know why I’m still standing
With a hole and a broken knee
My legs work and I’ve got a plan
Eventhough someone has stabbed me
This time nobody can kill me!
‘Cause I’m Dead, I’m Dead
A dead boy’s got no fear in his head
I’m Dead, I’m Dead
Someone decided something
Same deal if from above or below
The outcome is what matters
A new beginning has been allowed
Forget the old me!
‘Cause I’m Dead, I’m Dead
A dead boy’s got no fear in his head
I’m Dead, I’m Dead
‘Cause I’m Dead, I’m Dead
I left my old me and I’ll never come back
I’m Dead, I’m Dead
Yeah!
Usually you don’t learn anything from history
I’ll just probably make the same mistakes
Sure I will not live my life again
This time I face downhill without brakes
‘Cause I’m Dead, I’m Dead
A dead boy’s got no fear in his head
I’m Dead, I’m Dead
‘Cause I’m Dead, I’m Dead
I left my old me and I’ll never come back
I’m Dead, I’m Dead
Without frills
Straight bass line
And a sound that kills
What’s really shakin’ you
And makin’ move your butts
Is a giant dose of kick and snare
That hits you in the guts
So listen
Break your guitar
Shut down your amps
There’s nothing you can do
When the punch of rhythm comes
Just because drums beat riff
Drums beat riff
Yeah!
Another song
Another thrill
Same old-school Rock’n’Roll
Another place to fill
You can play for a crowd
Or just for three
But what matters is your lowly heart
Load of energy
So Baby
Begin to shout
Prepare to get shocked
Split your voice and I’ll give you
Every inch of my rock
Drums beat riff
Drums beat riff
Drums beat riff
I said drums beat riff
Just because drums beat riff
Drums beat riff
If you feel your bones crack
And your ears bleed
Another dose of wild rhythm
It’s just what you need
Drums beat riff
Drums beat riff
Drums beat riff
I said drums beat riff
Drums beat riff
Meetin’ you again has got a price
Your games attract me easily
I’m falling in your vise
The place is always the same
What we’re going to do there, it’s easy to guess
No matter how hard I twist the point
I’m sure your answer will be yes
You’re a cardsharper, ragdoll keeper
Headshrinker, bullshit drinker
Every time you show your cards
I win a dish I can’t discard
Self-control is hard to handle
Playing with you is a real
Night gamble
Another knock is coming
Its aim is just to bring me down
No matter how hard I twist the point
Next time I’ll still have your taste around
I’m a weak man, a loser, an almost sucker,
Far from sober, a lovefool boozer
Every time you show your cards
I win a dish I can’t discard
Self-control is hard to handle
Playing with you is a real
Night gamble
Every time you show your cards
I win a dish I can’t discard
Self-control is hard to handle
Playing with you is a real
Night gamble
Another year has gone
Spent your long days workin’
your fingers to the bone
Keep on livin’
Without an aim
Feed your life with love and hate
Sometimes it’s just the same
Now I need a drink man, to forget it all
Pour it down, bartender, thanks a lot
Another poison to wash my brain slowly
Another scotch to shake and to goad
Last one for me
The one for the road
Waiting for something new
Drinkin’ like a fish
Drowning in a lake of booze
Ain’t what I wish for
We’re sailing in the same boat
Pulling’ the cart
I’ve got a few more laps to run
Without passing through the start
Now I need a drink man, to forget it all
Pour it down, bartender, thanks a lot
Another poison to drown my brain slowly
Another scotch to shake and to goad
Last one for me
The one for the road
Have you ever stopped yourself for a while?
Thinkin’ if there’s a fear behind your smile
Tuning your head to the meaning of life
Will you need a drink to understand and hold it tight?
Waiting for an answer
It’s easy gettin’ old
So live your life day by day
Just keep yourself far from cold
Now I need a drink man, to forget it all
Pour it down, bartender and thanks a lot
Another poison to warm by bones slowly
Another scotch to shake and to goad
Last one for me…
Have you ever stopped yourself for a while?
Thinkin’ if there’s a fear behind your smile
Tuning your head to the meaning of life
Will you need a drink to understand and hold it tight?
I take the one for the road
I see your face only when you’re in need
I haven’t seen you for ages and now you’re here
For me you’ve always been a wanton book to read
You ask me if I can take you home
Getting there for me is a big pleasure
You say the trip has been long and weary
Yet a single step to your door and then we can get some leisure
If you feel dirty
Let’s take a ride on your washing machine
If you feel dirty
Cause I love you more
When you’re loose and clean
And If you’re dirty
Let’s take a ride on your washing machine
If you feel dirty
On your washing machine
I was really shocked you showed me your bag
To wash this stuff we need a flood of foam
I wonder how many things you have to tell me
And you know it’s better wash dirty laundry at home
I feel dirty
Let’s take a ride on your washing machine
If you feel dirty
Cause I love you more
When you’re loose and clean
And If you’re dirty
Let’s take a ride on your washing machine
If you feel dirty
On your washing machine!
Spin cycle!
You make me spinnin’ ‘round
You make me spinnin’ ‘round
If you feel dirty
Let’s take a ride on your washing machine
If you feel dirty
Cause I love you more
When you’re loose and clean
And If you’re dirty
Let’s take a ride on your washing machine
And If you’re dirty
Ohhh!
Let’s get laundry!
Please take a seat on your washing machine
If you feel dirty
Maybe the coolest place you’ve ever seen
And If you’re dirty!
Let’s take a ride on your washing machine
If you feel dirty
On your washing machine!
On your washing machine!
Spin cycle!
And I’ve got to make a decision
To share my space with her,
Slowly it’s becoming a prison
I’ve got my back against the wall!
I’ve always been a champ
To escape from sticky situations
But she’s become my chain and ball
But she’s become my chain and ball
So tight
You pull your noose
So tight on me
Pull your noose
I should know that this is a fortune,
To live in peace in a cosy cell
But she has built four walls around us
No back door from this warm hell
So tight
You pull your noose
So tight on me
Pull your noose
So tight
You pull your noose
So tight on me
Pull your noose
I really don’t know baby,
What we could tell each other in the future
I only hope not to go insane
I hope not to become your butcher
So tight
You pull your noose
So tight on me
Pull your noose
So tight
You pull your noose
So tight on me
Pull your noose
I just wanna kiss you
After a long workday
I’ve got a lot of things to do
Strip my soul from troubles
Have some music first
Doing all the mess I love
That can appease my thirst
And you’re the one
To me just like a queen
Far from you I’m getting off
And you know what I mean
After a long workday
I just wanna kiss you
After a long workday
My life turns like a screw
Still I’ve got a lot of honey all for you
More than you can see
I wanna buzz around you, taste your nectar
I’m your bumblebee
But you’re the one
Make me feel like a king
But now stop buzzin’
Don’t you want to feel my sting?
Don’t you want to feel my sting?
Yes!
Get Down!
You’re napping while I watch your pretty face
I’m anything but asleep
To have you near now that’s enough
Day’s over and I’m counting sheep
Eyes-open night
And I’m waiting to wake up!
Counting how many hours left
Until my morning coffee cup
Counting how many hours left
Until my morning coffee cup
Nothing’s coming back
Think about how you’re trickin’ me
And pushin’ me off the track
But I need love
I need your love
Your love I’ve never got
Honesty is what I didn’t lose
Your lies are where I fit
Makin’ love to you is what it means
Havin’ blood to spit
I need love
I need your love
Your love I’ve never got
You should pay for what you need
And you get what you’ve asked for
What have I ever done, God, in the past
to get this trouble lovin’ war
I need love
I need your body, baby
And all the stuff inside too
Still I don’t know how your brain works
Eventhough I’ve already been inside you
One day I’ll find your door
Hope you can pull me through
Love! Love! Love!
I’ve never asked for such a curse
I’ve never wanted this fuckin’ curse
But I need love
I need love
I need love
Your love I’ve never got!
I don’t know for how much time
I chewed my days
Digesting bad moods writing rhymes
Now the bill has come
And boredom is a friend of mine
I’ve been far away
With my body and my spirit as well
Out and never come back
Like when you cross the gates of hell
Now the bill has come
I’m here waiting for you
Now the bill has come…
I’ve been waiting
For the punishment
Sure it’s coming
Who knows how and when
I’ve been waiting
For the punishment
Sure it’s coming
Who knows how and when
I’ve been full of doubts
And doubts only make you weaker
And when you’re weak it’s easier
Falling from the rank of a leader
And the bill will come one day!
I’ve been waiting
For the punishment
Sure it’s coming
Who knows how and when
I’ve been waiting
For the punishment
Sure it’s coming
Who knows how and when
A new day is coming
With a dose of pain
I lost the count of time
For me it’s just the same
Waiting until someone will call my name
I’ve been waiting
For the punishment
Sure it’s coming
Who knows how and when
I’ve been waiting
For the punishment
Sure it’s coming
Who knows how and when
Everytime she comes
I feel the temperature rising
Everytime she comes
I can feel my blood seethe
Inside me an itch breaks like drums
An itch must be scratched
Sometimes fire needs a dose of fuel
An itch must be scratched
Sometimes fire needs a dose of fuel
You only want to play with fire, baby
Without getting a bang with your fool
Sometime it’s hard
And nothing to do with the dawn
Not a pie in the sky
Like when you drink booze and you’re gone
You’re just the woman that plays with me
And drags on!
Sometime it’s hard!
I can’t realize
If you’re joking or if you’re true
I never realized
If you’re joking or if you’re true
Then it could be a big trouble
If you really put your brain in what you do
I can’t realize
I never realized
Then it could be a big trouble
If you really put your brain in what you do
You show me all your stuff
You’re not a girl that plays with dolls
You show me your lovely stuff
You’re not a girl that plays with dolls
You’re just the woman that plays with me
You’re just the woman that plays with me
And I’ll come back home with blue balls
