Альбом Fool's Garden

Do you have a problem?
Do you wanna whine?
Do you feel the need for a little more time?
Do you think about a change of scene?
You should go and ask Peggy
for the principal thing

Do you have no money?
Do you wanna know?
What you wanna do and where you wanna go to?
Do you have the foggiest idea what I mean?
You should go and ask Peggy
for the principal thing

If you don't know what it means
It's easier than it seems
If you don't know what it means...
He's got all the keys
You only have to seize
And you know what it means
Do you know what it means?
Do you know what it means?

He was a showgirl
She's been around the world
And everybody knows

Do you feel a dizziness?
Do you wanna know?
Where's above and where's below?
Do you really love it when you're in between?
You should go and ask Peggy
for the principal thing

If you don't know what it means
It's easier than it seems
If you don't know what it means...

Emily's going out tonight
with a candle in her pocket and
a lighter in her right hand.
Does anybody know
why she's gonna go?
She's nearly out of sight.
Emily's out tonight.

So familiar,
how ladylike the old girl comes along.
She's ninety something,
dressed up and wide awake.
A little slow, but going strong.
She's paid off the overdraft
for the TV she has bought in 84.
She's been paying all her lifetime,
but now she's gonna pay no more.

Deep religious,
she went to mass on every Sunday morning.
She's believing
in God but she don't like
the priest (he's new in town – and very boring).
She's listened to his sermon well
though she's heard the same one hundred times before.
She's heard them all her lifetime,
but now she's gonna listen anymore.

She's gonna do it today, she's going make it today
she's gonna do it, gonna do it, gonna do it.

Emily's going out tonight
with a candle in her pocket and
a lighter in her right hand.
Does anybody know
why she's gonna go away?
She's gonna make it today.

She's very friendly,
an open minded and always understanding.
Bad behavior
she doesn't like at all.
She's very modest, she's never been demanding.
She's always followed every rule,
though she didn't even know what they've been for.
She has followed all her lifetime,
but now she's gonna follow anymore.

She's gonna do it today, she's gonna make it today
she's gonna do it, gonna do it, gonna do it right now.
She's going make the world go round (and round and round...)
she's gonna make it today...
She's gonna do it, gonna do it, gonna do it.

Emily's going out tonight
with a candle in her pocket and
a lighter in her right hand.
Does anybody know
why she's gonna go away?

Emily's going out tonight
with a candle in her pocket and
a lighter in her right hand.
Does anybody know,
where she's gonna go today?
She's gonna go away, she's gonna go today.

Emily's going out tonight
with a candle in her pocket and
a lighter in her right hand.
Does anybody know
where she's gonna go?
Se's nearly out of sight.
Emily's out tonight...

Mother's waiting in the kitchen
The elephant's waiting in the zoo
The teacher's waiting in the classroom
And I am waiting here for you

And the audience is waiting
for the show that won't begin
The artist's waiting at the backdoor
because nobody let him in

Why did she go?
She said there's no tomorrow
How did she know?
Did anybody tell her?
I can't explain
I'm sitting in the corner
Staring at the wall
And she won't be back again

Louise was waiting for a lover
First he paid and then he came
Now she's cooking for a baby
The client wasn't seen again

Why did she go...

It's time you started
to think seriously about
Your future and your dreaming
She said and didn't leave no room for doubt
That if I took her meaning
There was no longer dreaming
It's just a perfect screaming

Why did she go...

She's back again

The waitress is cleaning the bar
It's two in the morning
She offers some coffee to me
Turns the radio on
The caster is selling his voice to the night
The coffee gets cold in a while

The old man beside me is gone
He showed me a blueprint
Of a house he would build
With the money he never could save
His father was buried down by the sea
Once he was younger than me

Why am I sad today
Why am I on the way
Down to the border
Not over the line

Why am I sad today
Why am I on the way
Down to the limit of time
I'm sleepless tonight

Take me away from the gloom
I'm cold from the inside
The waitress has turned off the lights
There's nothing to fear
She's put on her coat and once in a while
The lines on her face disappear

Why am I sad today...

Oceans awake and walls break down
when you are there
You take my hand and
you just lead me right out of here

Why am I sad Today...

(Lennon / McCartney)

Martha my dear
Though I spend my days in conversation
Please
Remember me
Martha my love
Don't forget me
Martha my dear

Hold your head up you silly girl
Look what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you
Silly girl

Take a good look around you
Take a good look you're bound to see
That you and me
were meant to be
for each other
Silly girl

Hold your head up you silly girl
Look what you've done
When you find yourself in the thick of it
Help yourself to a bit of what is all around you
Silly girl

Martha my dear
You have always been my inspiration
Please
Be good to me
Martha my love
Don't forget me
Martha my dear

Whenever I buy a lighter in the store
You take it away
I cannot find the ashtray anymore
Did you take it away?
Smoking is not good for me
It damages my health
If you don't give me nicotine
Well, then I ask somebody else

And you say
What you do
Is just the way that I wanted you to
And you say
What you see
Is not the way that you want me to be

Whenever I pour myself a glass of wine
You take it away
The bottle I bought today I cannot find
Did you take it away?
Drinking is not good for me
It damages my brain
I haven't had a single drop
And it's driving me insane

That you say
What you do
Is just the way that I wanted you to
And you say
What you see
Is not the way that you want me to be

Whenever I get some change from anywhere
You take it away
I'm loving my little bankbook – you don't care
You take it away
Money is not good for me
It damages my soul
You take away my piggy bank
And dig it in a hole

And you say...

(Hinkel / Freudenthaler)

Dan is drinking coffee
Mary's drinking tea
Betty's having breakfast
in the plastic surgery
Some say she's a beauty
Some may say she's mad
But she doesn't care what the people say
and dyes her red hair black

You don't know,
what they will say
You probably've to do it your own way
You don't know,
what they will see
Absolutely nothing – probably

Tom is vegetarian
A little fool they say
His father wants to change his mind
He's trying every day

Anne is loving women
Fred is loving men
And everybody shakes their head
'Cause noone understands

You don't know...

In the corner plays a gypsy girl
With Indians and with Jews
Penny sings along with them
though she wears different shoes

You don't know...

You don't know,
what they will do
Noone ever knows,
you don't know too
You don't know,
what they will say
You probably don't need another way

There's no picture,
I could paint to tell you what you mean to me
And no poem,
I could write to tell you what you mean to me

You're more than fire
You are more than rain
You're more than love
And you are more than pain
No, no, there's no single word
that could explain

There's no flower,
blooming like the smile in your ethereal eyes
And no scholar,
ever could explain it – he could be so wise

You're more than heaven
You are more than Earth
You're the origin
You are more than birth
You're more than beautiful
You're everything to me

It's not the way that you move
It's not the glowing
on your face when you smile
that makes me trembling and calm
It's not that look in your eyes
when I am going
It's just everything – what you are

There's no ocean,
deep enough to show you what you mean to me
And no mountain,
high enough to show you what you mean to me

You're more than meaning
You are more than time
You are redemption
You're the reason why
You're so mysterious
You're everything to me

It's not the way that you move
It's not the glowing
on your face when you smile
that makes me trembling and calm
It's not that look in your eyes
when I am going

Don't you let them live in your soul
whenever they will try
to barricade the way that you go
You're fragile – souls can fly

It's not the way that you move...

Look up now – there's no need to be ashamed
You don't have to wear it – take it off
Look up now – and don't pretend

In the limelight you could take another bow
Would anybody see you?
You can run around in circles
and you can chain yourself
Would there anybody be there to release you?
Don't speak now – and don't turn around
When the moon kisses town

And all the elfs coming over
No more lies and no disguise anymore
Shame's just a word and nothing further
Do not turn around
When the moon kisses town

Move along now – don't look behind
There's nothing to forget – let it lie
Move on now and don't turn around
When the moon kisses town

And all the elfs coming over
No more lies and no disguise anymore
Shame's just a word and nothing further
Do not turn around
When the moon kisses town

Look up now – there's no need to be ashamed
You don't have to wear it – take it off
Look up now – while the world calms down
And the moon kisses town

And all the elfs coming over
No more lies and no disguise anymore
You can take away the cover – now
Look up now
See the world calm down
When the moon kisses town

The porridge's been good
The marmalade too
I take another slice of bread
The bacon is hot but I don't mind
Too long I boiled the egg
I'm still a little tired,
my bones are weak
Another day off I take
I guess the sun had the same idea
And now we have a break

It's a rainy day, a rainy day
But I love it
It's a rainy day
The water comes down
But I love you

Milkman Mr Miller
is ringing my bell
Do you take a litre or two
But I don't wanna drink his milk today
I feel fine without it too
He steps into a puddle by going away
I hear him swearing at
The forecast promised high pressure today
And now he's getting wet

It's a rainy day, a rainy day...

Rosalie MacLovely is waiting for a cab
In the middle of the pouring rain
Old bold head MacArthur is waiting
for his hair to grow again
Once upon a time he was a curly head
But all those days are gone
And now he's looking like a fireball
When he gets into the sun

It's a rainy day, a rainy day...

Now she's gone without a sign
Without a warning
The voice of anybody else
Is on the answering machine
The story's ending
You have to do it by yourself – tonight

So many years have passed
You shared so many hours
Expensive ones – you've never cared
And now she's gone without goodbye
She's left no number
Like anyone from anywhere – oh boy

Are you lonely
Did she hurt you
In this northern town

Ain't nobody
to console you
She has get you down

All your longings she returned
She's lit the candle
of love and passion in your heart
But now you're forced again to dial
another number
You should have known it from the start – oh boy

Are you lonely
Ain't nobody
In this northern town

When blue ethereal winds arise
And stars begin to paint the skies
Then don't be scared
Just close your eyes

When veils of silence lay them down
And noone seems to be around
I'll be there for you, wait for you
the whole night through
Good night – I love you

Elfs and sprites, they'll be your side
To lead you straight to your heart
Don't be afraid of going into

I'll be there for you, wait for you
the whole night through
Good night – I love you
