Oh Boogie 02:48
Oh Boogie (Feat. Crowley) I am a monomaniac, listening to the same song, over and over, day and night, two weeks long Music’s my soulmate, to me she’s perfect, as long as I’m not deaf I’ll enjoy myself It’s my passion, my addiction, Good sound without restriction No prescription to sing this song, All day long, Oh sing along! There’s no dosage recommendations when you choose your own medication I can’t live without music, she nurses me when I’m sick, a guaranteed result, it’s no homeopathy Music is my medicine, more addictive than heroin, When I’m in lack of adrenaline Play this song again, Over and over again, It came from my heart to your brain Sometimes I fear, the only thing that keeps me here are these songs and I’m never coming home son I might of dipped from the scene like soft serve ice cream But the music never left my soul, GO! I abuse the music; quarter jack attached to my vein Cause the tunes I feel the only thing that keeps me sane Hold myself hostage with one fucking song Now I’m blasting Union Jack through these headphones There’s no dosage recommendations when you choose your own medication I can’t live without music, she nurses me when I’m sick, a guaranteed result, it’s no homeopathy Music is my medicine, more addictive than heroin, When I’m in lack of adrenaline Play this song again, Over and over again, It came from my heart to your brain You are what you listen to, so I am awesome, I do hope so! Energy, Glee, Hello Nasty, The Dirty Boogie, The soundtrack of my best parties! One pill, two pills, three pills, four, these pills just fuck you up, shut the fuck up, pick it up Bring in the medication I want my songs injection, sensations that turn my world upside down Music is my medicine, more addictive than heroin, When I’m in lack of adrenaline Play this song again, Over and over again, It came from my heart to your brain

Wordaholic 02:59
Wordaholic Confront the beast every day Write, read and live your own screenplay Word after word, page after page, reading is dope when life is not Can’t stop, won’t stop, until I reach the final dot In a dark pub or under the sun, I devour my book and lose track of time From dusk to dawn, you can’t escape when you’ve been caught Once I’m done with a chapter, I can’t wait to start another I feel alive, it feeds my soul I love to be in this imaginary world Gimme some books, some sun, some booze, some rock & roll, literary chills Your life may be empty, let them feed you when you’re hungry I’ve found my therapy in a library Reading is like a drug, medicine without prescription Thank you Irvine for everything and for this great addiction It’s my daily pleasure, more than a treasure, the most exciting leisure Once I’m done with a chapter, I can’t wait to start another Gimme some books, some sun, some booze, some rock & roll I’m hooked on the books, my brain’s on a loop, these stories fill my dreams every time I snooze I’ve learned to let it go Gimme some books, some sun, some booze, some rock & roll I’m hooked on the books, my brain’s on a loop, these stories fill my dreams every time I snooze Nothing is unreal, unless I stop dreaming, writing, smiling, reading and living I’ve found my therapy in a library Letters on sheet give me more thrills Than TV screens A few words can brighten my day and it does work every day

Blackout 03:16
Blackout I’m out tonight for some fun and action, celebration’s my part time addiction I drink when I’m blue, I should not and it’s true, it makes me smile for nothing When nothing makes me smile, it helps me to see on the other side, my glass, never empty Life feels perfect in this moment, it’s total bliss, and instant perfection You better not know how much I must drink to run away from my reality Booze is a true friend, the reason why I can be lonely and happy Partying & drinking prevent me from thinking about all the bad things, Fill my glass buddy Not over the edge, Just a lil’ sip, Not over the edge, Just a lil’ sip Don’t waste my time oh no baby, I do it so well by myself lately I’m a moonshiner, a beer lover, most of the time a bad writer Just a shadow of myself, I don’t wanna be anything else I’m up for another drink, not the last probably the start of a long list You better not know how much I must drink to run away from my reality Booze is a true friend, the reason why I can be lonely and happy Partying & drinking prevent me from thinking about all the bad things, Fill my glass buddy Not over the edge, Just a lil’ sip, Not over the edge, Just a lil’ sip Blackout blackout, my turn to pay the shots, let’s party baby, gin, martini, whisky I cannot find another way to express my pain, Don’t blame me, that’s the rules of the game I should slow it down if I want to stay sane, The idea swimming in my brain I know you hurt me, I’d better drink tea Partying & drinking prevent me from thinking about all the bad things, Drinks after drinks Staying up all night, pretending I’m allright You better not know how much I must drink to run away from my reality Booze is a true friend, the reason why I can be lonely and happy

Boomerang 02:29
Boomerang Let’s start a new war, spread terror again Spread terror, spread terror Our planet is your playground, don’t wanna be part of your game Spread terror, spread terror Shoot, kill, destroy, but not in my name Drop drop bombs, for a better future, your rules, your lies as only suture This world is sick, that’s almost a culture, some starve, some binge, sad bulimia picture Sad but true but you choose we pay, somehow you know we have nothing to say You kill in our names and lie under oath, there’s no shame to stimulate growth Morally wrong or right, the world is blind, the world is blind This vicious society, a so called democracy, feels like modern slavery Child labour to sew the clothes, poor workers to clean the homes Exploitation for a stronger nation Corruption, ambition, terror and violence, fuck you it’s over, people can’t stand it more Resistance, persistence, I hope the day will come, the one that we were waiting for Tear down the walls Who sells the weapons, who feeds his greed, that kills your kids? The boomerang comes back Who pays the price when they roll the dice ? The boomerang comes back Let’s start a new war, spread terror again Spread terror, spread terror Our planet is your playground, don’t wanna be part of your game Spread terror, spread terror Don’t ever wanna be part of your nasty plan Shoot, kill, destroy, but not in my name I don’t play your rules

Purple Pride 01:53
PurplePride Fuck you, let me screw who I want, don’t judge me, please don’t tell me What’s good or what is not for me, none of your business, I decide freely What makes you think you can judge me, why do you think you are better than me? We’re not the same, this ain’t no shame I’m what I am Let me live, The way I want to Your moral values, Pretending to reach out to others, Mind your own affairs No matter the gender Nevermind what you say, no matter what you think My body belongs to nobody but me Nevermind what you say, no matter what you think My body belongs to nobody but me My body belongs to nobody but me We’re the fags, we’re the dykes, we’re Molly and Tommy Pride for L.G.B.T. and unity

Human Zoo 02:27
HumanZoo Feeling like nothing but a prey, I’m not ok, I’m not ready to obey I’m ready to fight for the women’s rights to be respected, But the road is still long, I need to find the strength for this battle and carry on I know a lot of you feel the same, It’s such a shame Not deaf not blind Not deaf not blind Not deaf not blind Everything is meant to debase women Abused and insulted, Threatened and neglected Oppressed and ill treated, Ignored & Humiliated No one reacts but everyone sees, cowardly men are guilty Signs of a sad, sick society I know a lot of you feel the same, It’s such a shame Not deaf not blind Not deaf not blind Not deaf not blind Everything is meant to debase women I no longer want to feel afraid, Don’t have to feel like this no more And still I hope for a big change, There’s such a lot of things to change

Bitter Taste 02:58
BitterTaste I remember a time when I felt alright, a wife, a home, I was on cloud nine They’ve made my day, lit up every day, will these feelings ever go away? In the blink of an eye, your dreams collapse, and you relapse, since that day I was fired, everything is falling fuckin’down Cause you don’t know what it feels like, to shiver alone outside Indifference makes my heart melt, although I’m frozen on the inside Locked in the street, shuffling my feet You can’t imagine what your brain can do when you’re thirsty and hungry too, I could kill for a cozy bed or just a place to rest my head Social tragedies happen every day, you’re in a dead end way (when) there’s nothing left for you to cling to I think of you, I wanna be you, I wanna hot meal every day Winter is long when things go wrong, I’m waiting for better days It’s like nowhere I feel at home Even if everywhere is home … rummage through your trash rummage through your trash If I stay one more day out here, I am sure I’m gonna disappear It’s cold, deep inside my bones / Living outside ruins all my hopes I feel like a shadow, I am tired and I’m so cold Winter is long, endlessly long, Your heart is cold, cold as a stone Everything goes wrong, It’s hard to stay strong, your heart is cold, Cold as a stone Winter is long, Endlessly long, Everything goes wrong, Everything goes wrong

Don't Look Back When you cant get any lower, the only way to go is up When nothing ever seems to get better, we all feel the same, that our lives are vain Depression strikes again, no use in blaming yourself, a lower self esteem always leads to distress Don’t mope, things have to change Bounce back, things always rearrange Don’t look back, keep your head up, stay strong when it’s hard to cope The future’s always brighter than the past, the worst moments don’t ever last Trouble happens everyday, stand your ground to keep them away You’re free to choose to not be sad, you only live once, life is not so bad Problems always come to an end, so don’t kill yourself Don’t look back, keep your head up, stay strong when it’s hard to cope The future’s always brighter than the past, the worst moments don’t ever last We all have something we’d die for, a piece of happiness that we’re looking for Stay focused on the best, and don’t waste yourself Don’t look back, keep your head up, stay strong when it’s hard to cope The future’s always brighter than the past, the worst moments don’t ever last Don’t look back, keep your head up

Summer Waves 01:27
SummerWaves Good bye summer, I will miss you, We had so much fun Under the blazing sun I can’t believe you’ve left, now I feel all alone, Was it worth it to leave me blue? How will I ever get through? I’m bored to death without you We had the best time, us two, No one could save me but you Summertime, summertime, I loved these times when we stayed up all night Summertime, summertime Your touch was soft and pure, like a dream come true, I still love you, yes I do You’re my all time favorite, on top of my wishlist, I’ll marry you if you ask me to Summertime, summertime, I loved these times when we stayed up all night Summertime, summertime, Fell in love with you at first sight Summertime, summertime I’ll see you soon, my lovely summer

The Globe 02:52
TheGlobe Night and day when you think that you need to leave this all behind, and clear your mind Take it like a reminder, to pack your bags, and book a flight Destination relaxation, no place for hesitation, follow your aspirations Time waits for no one, get your things done, the world is yours if you want to Realize your dreams, enjoy our travel theme, the world is your playground From town to town, move back and forth, seated in your greyhound Lightweight sleeping bag, stuff sacks, you know what it’s all about, when you walk around, when you move around No matter how long you’ve travelled in the wrong direction, you can always turn around Change at the next station, on permanent translation to the perfect location Even if you go astray, don’t worry ‘bout the next day, things always end up okay You don’t ever expect what life could be, good surprises in every city Discover and contemplate, Love, hug and celebrate, It’s worth it, the world as I see it Realize your dreams, enjoy our travel theme, the world is your playground From town to town, move back and forth, seated in your greyhound Make the best of your trip, lose yourself in every street with the best people you will ever meet Living life the easy way, oversleeping every day, only woken up by sunrays Travel and change, and make my dreams come true, that’s what I do and so should you! Fill your life with good vibes Some feelings can’t be described, enjoy the journey of life Even if you go astray, don’t worry ‘bout the next day, things always end up okay One trip leads to another, travelling further and farther, to the perfect location Everything that has a beginning comes to an end. Everything dies one day, enjoy what you can win over death. No matter how long you stay or what you do, it’s the trip. Yeah it’s the trip man. It’s never too late, It’s never too late to find yourself. If you want something done right, do it yourself!

You and I 02:45
YouAnd I I’m noisy when you’re quiet, I criticize when you praise I refuse when you accept, I follow my line while you compromise I sleep when you wake up early, You sleep when I’m drinking whisky I’m dancing when you’re seated, Oh you and IThe Robocop Kraus, Wavves You walk your dog, I play with my cat, You watch when I act You give up when I’m still standing, You feel big when I’m small It takes all sorts to make a world, But maybe you’re not essential You claim we get what we deserve, You get on my nerves I laugh when you cry, I succeed when you try You’re so down when I feel high, I love when you lie Oh you and I, I wear in black when you’re in white I’m true when you’re fake, I swear when you pray You’re proud, I’m ashamed, you’re heaven and I’m hell You buy when I sell, you’re busted when I’m saved by the bell, by the bell I’ll never be you and you’ll never be me You’re sad and so ordinary You’re an asshole and I am not, you think you’re smart, I think you’re not My nights are funnier than your days, we’re different in so many ways I enjoy my life when you work hard, you’re no fun I don’t want you around I party when you go to bed
13.
Bones 03:00
Bones I often think about the person that you would become, But it’s a waste of time cause my friend you’re gone, and since you’re gone life’s a bit less fun Time eases pain, words can do so too, I was so down when we lost you I wish you were still around You left a place empty Like a party with no whisky A wilted flower, a broken dream, you meant a whole lot to our team A void that never will be filled, a pain that won’t ever be healed The world has changed, not for the best, conformism has won the game We see the same brands everywhere, I see the same bands everywhere From NYC to Tokyo, overwhelmed with commercial logos Standardized music for the masses, if you were still here we’d kick some asses World is so sad below now Hipsters play on my stereo Not a pretty picture, what about the future? Mediocrity is taking over, we expected something better We all miss you back here You left a place empty, like a party with no whisky A void that never will be filled, a pain that won’t ever be healed We are we are not all the same Originality’s not a shame, Enjoy your life Outside the frame I wish you were still around You left a place empty A fuckin’ place empty There was a time when music meant something. Punk was a sound, a working class alarm. Call it rebellion, revolution, but never fashion. Fuck these clichés, fuck these kids and their dress codes. Punk means freedom you probably missed or misunderstood something. This world is sad, apathetic and amnesic. I’m bored of hearing the same songs, from the same bands, see the the same brands in every fuckin city all around the world. Capitalism breeds conformity, and we’re all guilty, conformism is capitalism’s weapon. Everybody watches and likes the same movies, reads the same books, it’s so boring, don’t forget we are fucking unique!
