[Verse 1]
Oh, the light shines through the linen
Der Morgen beginnt singen
I don't want to dream anymore
Oh, they tell me that I'm stubborn
Treffe meine Wahl im Zorn
I don't want to dream anymore
[Pre-Chorus]
Hail Satan
At least he keeps a promise
Big brother's always out of office
I know nobody wants to hear this, but
[Chorus]
I live in a weird world
Yeah, it's sad but it's true
Maybe you can't see it
But you live in one too
I used to be a dream girl
But the world interfered
At least now I know why
Now I know why
Now I know I'm weird
[Verse 2]
Oh, my anger turnеd me bitter
Und jetzt bin ich Nachtschwimmеr
I don't want to dream anymore
Ah, I'll never wake in heaven
Cause heaven don't want women
Children, Father Figure
Mother, Daughter
Hooker, Stripper!
[Pre-Chorus]
Hail Satan
At least he keeps a promise
Big brother's always out of office
I know nobody wants to hear this, but
[Chorus]
I live in a weird world
Yeah, it's sad but it's true
Maybe you can't see it
But you live in one too
I used to be a dream girl
But the world interfered
At least now I know why
Now I know why
Now I know I'm weird
[Post-Chorus]
At least I know why
I didn't realise
Now I know I'm weird
[Bridge]
Das Lied dass mir den weg zeigt
Das Lied, das Lied der Zeitgeist
Das Lied dass mir den weg zeigt
Das Lied
[Chorus]
I live in a weird world
Yeah, it's sad but it's true
Maybe you can't see it
And that's too bad for you
I used to be a dream girl
But the world interfered
At least now I know why
Now I know why
Now I know I'm weird
[Outro]
Ahh, ooh
Now I know I'm weird
In a weird world
La-da-da-da-da

[Intro]
Aah-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, shh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh, shh, ooh-ooh-ooh (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
[Verse 1]
She's never done, this is her funhouse
And she's the one, but you'll never find out
And look at you, you're such a mess
You want more but you end up with less (Ha)
[Pre-Chorus]
Torment the girl, she can ruin your world
Don't get in her way, get in her way
[Chorus]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) I'm the girl with no face
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) You could learn a thing or two
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Then you're gonna thank me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Say, "I never met a girl like you"
[Post-Chorus]
Aah-aah-aah (Shh)
Like you, ah-aah-aah (Shh)
[Bridge]
Shh
Aah
Shh
Hey
Ah-ah
[Verse 2]
She has no friends
Up on the catwalk (Catwalk)
And she is sharp
So shut your talk-talk (Talk-talk)
If you behave you get to play
But don't be greedy, she can spot a fake (Ha)
[Pre-Chorus]
Torment the girl, she can ruin your world
Don't get in her way, get in her way
[Chorus]
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) I'm the girl with no face
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) You could learn a thing or two
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Then you're gonna thank me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Say, "You look familiar, who are you?"
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) I'm the girl with no face
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) You could learn a thing or two
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Then you're gonna thank me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh) Say, "I never met a girl like you"
[Post-Chorus]

[Verse 1]
Stubborn aphrodite
You got me in the tits
I thought I was an alien
Found out I was a twit
My body is a prison
But how can I escape?
Doesn't matter what I do
I'm filled up with a hate
[Chorus]
Go take the piss
I'm flat with a wit
Not soft full of shit
Now off with her tits
Off with her tits
Off with her tits
Off with her tits
[Verse 2]
One day out of nowhere
My chest began to rise
He noticed in the shower said he liked it and I cried
I'll never be a lady
Why make me feel a fool?
Take this flesh and suck it out
[Refrain]
And stop the ridicule
Stop the ridicule
Stop the ridicule
[Chorus]
Go take the piss
I'm flat with a wit
Not soft full of shit
Now off with her tits
Off with her tits
I gotta fix
This one little bit
Or l'll throw a fit
Now off with her tits
Off with her tits
Off with her tits
Off with her tits
[Post-Chorus]
(Got me in the tits)
[Verse 3]
Then I called the doctor
Said Miss what can you do?
She told me she'd cut them off
I said sign me up for June (Yah)
I went to the teller
Took out 10K in cash
She said bitch are you joking?
Wish I had that rack
[Refrain]
Stop the ridicule
Stop the ridicule
[Chorus]
Go take the piss
I'm flat with a wit
Not soft full of shit
Now off with her tits
Off with her tits
I gotta fix
This one little bit
Or l'Il throw a fit
Now off with her tits
Off with her tits
And being this thick
It makes me sick
I wanna be a stick
Now off with her tits
Off with her tits
Off with her tits
Off with her tits
Off with her tits
Off with her tits
Off with her tits yeah!
Yeah-ah!

Wanna be parallel

John and Jonathan

[Refrain]
John and Jonathan are on the town
John and Jonathan, they go up, they go down
At the Bowery, in line they wait
They will stay all night then wake at eight
[Verse]
John and Jonathan are at the café
John likes coffee black, and Jon au lait
Making good decisions, they must have taste
They stand by their choices, they stand, they face
[Chorus]
But how will I know if they care for me?
Do I believe what they say?
When I'm on stage they all cheer for me
I must soak up the praise
And save it for a rainy day
[Bridge]
Dear John and Jonathan
Who am I to you?
Dear John and Jonathan
Je ne sais quoi
[Refrain]
John and Jonathan are on the town
John and Jonathan, they go up, they go down
At the Bowery, in line they wait
They will stay all night then wake at eight
[Chorus]
But how will I know if they care for me?
Do I believe what they say?
When I'm on stage they all cheer for me
I must soak up the praise
And save it for a rainy day

|
[Verse 1]
This secret in me I won't ever tell
She can see inside of me and make me well
Held like a child, my pink little prize
Got lost in her eyes
Then she shut her lips and she left me inside
And now I cry
[Chorus]
Galina, wake up
I'm running out of luck
And I get so ugly without you (Oh, oh, oh)
Now, open your eyes
Help me make it through the night
Galina, wake up
Galina, wake up
Know you don't give a fuck
Fear, you'll take the answers to your gravе
You could open your eyes
Hеlp me make it through the night
Galina, please, wake up
[Verse 2]
I gots to keep my head up (You got)
I gotta have some grace (You got)
Got to bring her back to me
It's more than saving face (Saving face)
Oh-ooh-ooh, don't blame the time
I blame the divine, she used to be mine
When I asked for help
She said, "You're on your own this time'
Send me a sign
[Chorus]
Galina, wake up
I'm running out of luck
And I get so ugly without you (Oh, oh, oh)
Now, open your eyes
Help me make it through the night
Galina, wake up
Galina, wake up
Know you don't give a fuck
Fear, you'll take the answers to your grave
You could open your eyes
Help me make it through the night
Galina, please, wake up
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
[Bridge]
My hand's turnin' dry and red
She keeps sleepin' in her bed
My face crackin' in the light
Her lips part, the tiniest smile
[Chorus]
Galina, wake up
I'm running out of luck (Out of luck)
And I get so ugly without you (Oh, oh, oh)
Now, open your eyes
Help me make it through the night (Ooh-ooh)
Galina, wake up (Galina)
Galina, wake up
Know you don't give a fuck (Nah)
Fear, you'll take the answers to your grave (You)
You could open your eyes
Help me make it through the night
Galina, please, wake up (Wake up)

Hardware Software
02:28
|
|||
|
[Verse 1]
My hardware is getting too hard
I like software, it makes me calm and stuff
I like wearing robes, playing Stereolab
I like hanging out with my mom and dad
I don't want to quantize everything
I want to make a computer that gives me pleasure
I wanna cut you and I wanna paste me
I wanna kick and scream and shout like a bee sting
[Verse 2]
My hardware is getting too fast
I need to slow down, honey, wanna make it last
And my software is kicking me in the gut
It's gonna get me soft like a pillow top
I wanna line my bed with a mountain of debt
I wanna earn my face on the internet
I wanna kill, kill, kill 'til my world is dead
And I can't stop thinking 'bout all of that

Black Eye

|
[Verse 1]
Something bad coming this way
Darling, don't look back with every fucker
Keep your eye on the path or it'll drive you mad
The world goes 'round
Makes me dizzy but I hold my ground
When I get nauseous I just gag it down
Pound for pound
I gag it down, I gag it down
[Chorus]
Oh, hit me, hit me with that super pain
'Cause a hit feels like I'm dancin' in the rain
Gimme that beat
There's no need to cry, it's just a black eye, yeah
Hit me, hit me with that super bass
'Cause I want tonight to slap me in the face
Gimme that beat
There's no need to cry, it's just a black eye, yeah
[Verse 2]
Somеthing bad already happened
Doеs that make you sad?
I'm gonna burn it 'cause I don't get mad
I'm a modern dog, ah
Collar crime, year on a leash, it makes a nasty mind
I'm sorry Mister Fister, if I bite
It's just spite
I will bite, I will bite
[Chorus]
Oh, hit me, hit me with that super pain
'Cause a hit feels like I'm dancing in the rain
Gimme that beat
There's no need to cry, it's just a black eye, yeah
Hit me, hit me with that super bass
'Cause I want tonight to slap me in the face
Gimme that beat
There's no need to cry, it's just a black eye, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, yeah
No need to cry, it's just a black eye
Oh-oh
There's no need to cry, it's just a black eye
[Bridge]
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la
Eye, eye, eye, ooh
Black, black, black, black eye
Eye, eye, eye
Give me a black eye
Eye, ooh, just a black eye
[Outro]
Little baby, just dry your tears and say
A black eye never goes away
Little baby, just dry your tears and say
A black eye never goes away
Little baby, just dry your tears and say
A black eye never goes away

You Slept On Me
04:11
|
|||
|
[Verse 1]
I feel mad, yeah, I'm all worked up
This beat is hard but not hard enough
Will someone slap my face and make it sting?
Because they wanna cry but I can't quit laughing
Spent your coins on a counterfeit
She got a rainbow hair, she got a BB lift
I guess you never learned about quality
I feel bad for you, I feel bad for me
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, what a shame
Don't you agree?
Wasting your time sleeping on me
[Chorus]
You've been out like a light
Cued up in the line
Drinking your Sprite, you've been wasting time
Now the jury's in, we all agree
While I was saving you
You slept on me
[Post-Chorus]
Time to get down on one knee
Tell mе why you slept on me
[Verse 2]
I held my tonguе for about long enough
It's about damn time that I spoke up
I'm an icon, honey, this isn't a chore
And I need to make money so give me yours
You missed my debut then my renaissance
You missed my late romantic, my veridict au France
Now I'm a modern bitch and I'm getting tough
Better make it up, kids, enough's enough
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, what a shame
It's clear to see
You've been so dumb sleeping on me
[Chorus]
You've been out like a light
Cued up in the line
Drinking your Sprite, you've been wasting time
Now the jury's in, we all agree
While I was saving you
You slept on me
[Post-Chorus]
Time to get down on one knee
Tell me why you slept on me
[Bridge]
Yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, hey
[Chorus]
You've been out like a light
Cued up in the line
Drinking your Sprite, wasting your time and mine
Now the jury's in, we all agree
While I was saving you
You slept on me, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Time to get down on one knee
Tell me why you slept on me
[Outro]
You've been eating Krispy Kreme
You've been praising Paula Deen
There's no point trying to disagree
Just get in line, you tired queen
Yeah, yeah

Saddest Smile
03:08
|
|||
|
[Verse 1]
When I'm sad, I don't cry
I put on my saddest smile
Used to kick, I used to bite
Now I've lost my appetite
[Chorus]
No one wants to see you soften
So we have to harden 'til we can turn to dust
Taunt us, something that you can't have
Even if you change, you'll never change that much
[Verse 2]
If you're sad, it's alright
You'll put on your saddest smile
You'll be loved, at least be liked
Oh, your little heart has turned as black as night
[Chorus]
No one wants to see me soften
So I have to harden 'til I can turn to dust
Taunt us, something that you can't have
Even if you change, you'll never change that much

Staying Power
04:12
|

|
[Verse 1]
I don't have the face that makes your grandma wanna smile
I don't have the milk that makes me wanna have a child
I don't have the disposition for drinks with the girls
I don't sing for straight men 'cause they just ruin the world
Wanna be good daughter but I pushed my mom away
Wanna be good patient but my doctor makes me pay
Wanna save the baby but I threw away the bath
My body's weak, my mind is bleak, there's one thing that I have
[Chorus]
Staying power, I've got the power
The world can hurt me, I don't mind
That's 'cause I've got staying powеr
Minute or hour, I'll wait you out
I've got all night, all night
I've got all night, I agе like wine
The opportunity is mine
[Verse 2]
Don't wanna be a victim but I want your sympathy
Don't wanna be religious but life brought me to my knees
I've got so much to say to you that I want you to know
But I don't wanna scare you off, I don't want you to go
I tried to make myself attractive in the ways I could
I tried to turn a failing body into something good
If the world could love me, it could take away the hurt
But love, it doesn't penetrate the only thing that works is
[Chorus]
Staying power, I've got the power
The world can hurt me, I don't mind
That's 'cause I've got staying power
Minute or hour, I'll wait you out
I've got all night, all night
I've got all night, I age like wine
The opportunity is mine
[Bridge]
Yes
Yes
Oh, yeah
[Chorus]
Staying power, I've got the power
The world can hurt me, I don't mind
That's 'cause I've got staying power
Minute or hour, I'll wait you out
I've got all night, all
Staying power, I've got the power
The world can hurt me, I don't mind
That's 'cause I've got staying power
Minute or hour, I'll wait you out
I've got all night, all night
I've got all night, I age like wine
The opportunity is mine
The opportunity is mine (Mine, mine, mine)
The opportunity is mine

Truly Dreams
04:33
|

|
[Verse 1]
Never die, I'll never die
Take everything, I’ll never die
Try and try, you can make me cry
I'm nobody, I can never die
Why everybody runs away
And take almost everything I made, oh?
[Chorus]
But I keep dreaming
And if it's not enough then
I’ll just keep my hopes and dreaming
With all my might, just listen
Truly dreams never die ([?] it's okay to cry)
They never die (Never die, baby, can never diе)
[Verse 2]
I'm just a girl in a real world
And no one cares, yеah, no ones cares
But I live in my mind and I see through my eyes
And that's enough when I get furious
Ah, life is just a cabaret
And ah, no one can take that away
[Chorus]
I keep dreaming
And if it's not enough then
I'll just keep my hopes and dreaming
With all my might, just listen
Truly dreams never die ([?] it's okay to cry)
They never die (Never die, baby, can never die)
[Bridge]
Dreamin', I’m dreamin’
[Chorus]
I keep dreaming
And if it's not enough then
I’ll just keep my hopes and dreaming
With all my might, just listen
Truly dreams never die ([?] it's okay to cry)
They never die (Never die, baby, can never die)
[Outro]
Dreamin'
Yeah, all might might
Dreamin'
Dreamin’, dreamin', dreamin'
I'll never die

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche.
