Mighty Fine
Something you can’t get
Something you can’t borrow
The bank won’t give a loan
Something you can’t get
by putting yourself in deep depths
There is no control
No captain on the love boat
But when it rains on you
Start looking for your coat
Someone’s light to make you shine
A reflection on a decent soul
Someone’s fire you call mine
because you are lonely and
your hands are cold
What you want won’t happen
because you’re busy making other plans
They used to arrange it
for the benefit of the family clan
Be a man about it, be a woman
the four footed beast on a high
Maybe you’re lucky
Maybe your well won’t run dry
Never miss your water just getting by
Hello my beautiful princess
My dead tripping god
You look might fine
and only the sweet lord knows
I’m already yours
Maybe you could be my
breach of space and time

Rubber Boat
I was wearing boots of led
when the lights turned red
It was raging in my head
like a defcon 5 alert
Because when the saltshaker fell off the floor
There was a hurricane waving off shore
And the stain got on the cloth
And a depth bom from above got of
Let go the burden
We’re running out of oxygen
Move up to face the surface
I ain’t choking
In the back of a truck on the way to the UK
Rocking a rubberboat
I ain’t rockin a rubberboat
Raspberry jam on the captain’s dress
made an ugly mess
And when the tip of the stainless broke of
A splinterbomb got off
With a magnitude of nine and a half
This earthquake is just for laughs
followed by a peaceful minute or two
Put your seatbelts on
Because the ride will get rough

Screen Rubber
You make me feel like
I’m wasting your
precious time
You act as if
you just don’t give
a damn
You acting as if I’m just
a waste of space
You’re acting as if
you want me
out of your face
turn off your phone
hello my name is Michael and i m really sorry
i didn t see you cause I was kind a busy
kind a busy you know it ain t easy
lookin up and down on the same time
i got to check that little screen of mine
i m running behind and on the same time
checkin if my momma's ok and your nephew‘s doing fine
passing time , i don t need no fillerwords to make it rhyme

i gotta make believe that i am part of the A team
at the head of the likes as the Simti , yeah
cause i m makin it ? yes i m shakin it
i got proof of it cause i m sharing it YOU JUST CHECK THE PICTURES
the mermaids singin in the mountain lake
feels kinda funny feels kinda fake
arrows and angels maybe nough said
a smiley yellow face that s turning into red
the planet Venus and the rocket to your star
keep fillin them , fillin them bars
a dancing queen and some kinda travolta
vai baby, vai baby ,vai baby volta
VAI BABY VAI BABY VAI BABY VOLTA
come on baby lets waste some saliva
let me be your driver, ill drive you to the sea get the breeze tween your knees
and the sand tween your toes
she said “not the beach please that could rune my phone”
nice talk baby , maybe just a little monotone
you re sending me a coconut , you re sending me a lime
i don t need no fillerwords to make it rhyme

Sweatshop Babylon
Come on everybody
get down
Come on everybody
let’s get under
the bottomline
Let’s be deficient
Let’s have a good time
Let’s put the patience to
the test of my people
Let’s be disappointing
Unsatisfactory
Let’s be as bad as we
possibly can be
Let’s be damned
Let’s be disingenuous
Sanctimonious
Let’s start moaning
We can shut
shut your Sweatshop
Babylon down
Mama, mama
I get smoke in my eyes
We can shut
shut your Sweatshop
Babylon down

Clean As A Whistle
Clean as a whistle
The way is right
We are the way to keep you safe
From the morning ‘till the dark night
Nobody’s gonna take your job
Nobody’s gonna harvest your crop
Nobody’s gonna sell your belongings
In a second hand shop
For a quick shot
Nobody will sip on your cup
Nobody will call the corrupt
We keep an eye on your crib non-stop
And we kick all the burglars
from your rooftop
We are faster than the army
we are stronger than the police
spiderman is coming
setting us all free

Higher Than Blow

Higher than blow
If this is crazy
I’m glad I lost my mind
If this is maybe
in the meantime
If this is right
I’ll left you some more
(Be)cause you make me feel
higher than blow
If this is a start
something will end
Here is a spark
lighting up a friend
Somekind (of) a springtime
no more snow
Because you make me feel
higher than blow
If this is a crime
I’ll be a fox
Show me your merch
tonight by the docks
Wrong or right baby
I don’t know
You make me feel
higher than blow
If this is over
I will travel in time
If this is the future
then I will stand in line
Nothing is forever, baby
We’ll see where it goes
But you make me feel, higher than blow

Born Free

I’ll extradite you to the crocodile
and have a swim in the Nile
Scare me
Try to enter my mind
Try me
and on another table I will dine
Blackmail me
and I will be back
to make sure that indeed
your mail will be black
Shouldn't be even explaining it
Shouldn’t be explaining this to you, boy
Born free
(be)cause I was born free
Take my money
Don’t leave a trace
I know how you spend it
Don’t be amazed
You can take my tools and
hide my precious things
And it will be me
who breaks the strings
Cut all liaisons with scissors of gold
Nothing what you did
will stay untold
Shouldn't be even explaining it
Shouldn’t be explaining this to you, boy
Born free
(be)cause I was born free

Flow Freely

There must be a way
to let it flow freely
There must be a way
to make this work
Because I want you baby
and I want to believe in
love
There won’t be a way
me being needy
There won’t be a way
to keep you close
Because I want you baby
and I want to believe in
love
Come on baby make me believe
There must be a way
to shoot this crossbow
There must be a way
to see you more (often)
or less
and disappear
become an unknown
There must be a way
Out of this friendzone
Take me out of there, please
Because I want you baby
and I want to believe in
love
Once I met consequence
But she wasn’t who I thought she was
Then I met resignation
But she wanted to turn me in what I’m not
Top rockin’ in the mall I met streetcred
Way out of (x2) my league
And then I met sincerity
She let him take her home
It took me a year to get back on my feet
And then I met acceptance
She was a saint to me
She let me roam and so that’s what I did

The Servant Song
04:24

|
I was born to make you feel good
I was born to make you feel good
We could survive both wars
and still go soft on each other, baby
like a goldfish in cold water
fresh like the first kiss never faded
We never get saturated
by the nearness of our pool
and the friends of our kids are cool
This ain’t a puppy
It’s a fancy pooch, you fool
It’s not what I had in mind
But I guess it’s fine
I was born to make you feel good
I was born to make you feel good
Who left the shandon standing
In our second beach house
the one by the lake
And my jetski that won’t start up
and the maid came in fifteen minutes late

Engineer

This engineer
has got the magic in his hand
Turning sea into land
Fails into succes
Rags in to riches
Stars into reach
Steel into bridges
Steel into towers
Steel into plows
Nobody around
the welfare row
Stone into buildings
Sand into glass
Making it all affordable to the mass
Trees into matches
Tears into cash
Headaches into pill boxes
Ready to ship across
Glaciers into bottles
Cows into cans
A Mortgage on your mother
Or sleep in a van
Beaches into posters
What if you can
Each engineer ‘s got the magic in his hand
But you can’t bring her back to me
Engineer us a future, please
High tide will lift up all boats
Except the ones that carry your loads (x2)
Images into realness
What if you can
Each engineer ‘s got the magic in his hand
But you can’t bring her back to me
Engineer us a future, please
