Music : Klaus Meine
Lyrics: Klaus Meine

Well here comes my baby
She's dressed oh so cute
She looks a little crazy
In her Hollywood shoes
Well baby loves driving
In my hot brand new car
She thinks less than flying
Is not fast enough

But when you turn upside down
Life ain't too much fun
I wanted to cry
But the tears wouldn't come

Here comes my baby
She's the one I adore
Well she's a lucky lady
Born in a Gucci store
With gold cards in motion
And the platinum too
She jets across the ocean
A little faster than you

But when it rains in St. Barth
Life ain't too much fun
I wanted to cry
But the tears wouldn't come
I wanted to cry
But the tears wouldn't come

Every night without you
I miss to have you by my side
Ohh, so I keep waiting, I keep waiting
I swear I never let you go again

Well here comes my baby
With a Brad Pitt lookalike
Right through immigration
And straight out of my life

Well it seems the friendly skies
Are pretty good fun
I wanted to cry
But the tears wouldn't come

I wanted to cry
I wanted to cry
I wanted to cry
But the tears wouldn't come

I can't go on
You said my head's too heavy
I need that song
those trusty chords could pull me through
and early on
they saw the warning signs and symptoms all day long
we sit and dream of better days
where we'd hit the ground running on empty
stories we've been told
and all those nights we spent together never felt this fucking cold
when we let the car run in the driveway
kiss you one last time
before we brought the horse's in before the storm of '59'!
of 59' [x2]

i cant go on these limbs have grown to heavy
i need that song a night on earth could pull me through
and early on
they saw the warning signs and symptoms all day long
wonder how far from here we'll fall
before we hit the ground running on empty
stories we've been told
and all those nights we spent together never felt this fucking cold
when we let the car run in the driveway
kiss you one last time
before we brought the horse's in before the storm of '59'!

1, 2, 3, 4!

Has your life got you down? Are you feeling lost and blue?
I’m thinking maybe a career change is the best answer for you
You’ve never lived, never known true romance
Till you been taught the steps to the death dance
Benning, Georgia, is gonna teach you how to move!

Take our rights back! Stand up for Liberty!
This is the era when we give the world a better way
Take our right back! Shut down the SOA!
This is the era when we give the world a better way

Torture, rape, murder and death are all waiting for you
Democracy subversion well they got that covered too
The grad names on their walls, most infamous of all dictators/coup learders
Learn well someday you maybe ranked with these awesome k-k-k-k-killers!

Take our rights back! Stand up for Liberty!
This is the era when we give the world a better way
Take our right back! Shut down the SOA!
This is the era when we give the world a better way

Take our rights back! Stand up for Liberty!
This is the era when we give the world a better way
Take our right back! Shut down the SOA!
The setting son can burn a brilliant vibrant flame

[Speech]

They’re selling war as peace
STRIKE!
Do we need it in our name
STRIKE! STRIKE BACK!
Tax dollars from the war machine
STRIKE!
The people can’t leave me in stains
STRIKE! STRIKE BACK!

[Speech]
AHHHHH!

Take our rights back! Stand up for Liberty!
This is the era when we give the world a better way
Take our right back! Shut down the SOA!
The setting son can burn a brilliant vibrant flame

Not one more word tonight
between here and there
Well put a distance the size of the ocean
so now his heart can be a skipping rythem
As the cadence carries me
I almost drift away
far enough to forget
but when it comes you cannot hesitate
and when found i will write
on account and seal it in an envelope
addresed to your last known residence

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooooooooooo

and we sink and we drowned
and what is lost can never be found
well these arms did swim,
until the lungs pulled in
panic was lost in a deep understanding
that you will see what is wrong with everything
what is wrong with you and me
they make all the right reasons to fuck it up
you gotta fuck it up

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooooooooooo

(That sounded pretty good to me)

In your plane in the blue sky
You roam again
Words that echo in your mind
Make your heart beat faster

'This is no Vietnam
We will win in Iraq'

The president said, 'Let it ride'
Islam be damned
Make your last stand
In Baghdad

Warrior, the time bomb's about to go
What will you feel
Will you even wonder
If the man that's in your sights
Ever kissed his girlfriend good-bye
The Captain said, 'Kill or die'
Islam be damned
Make your last stand
In Baghdad

Great satan, our flags are burning
Soon America may find its young men In the sand
Where their casualty Is just another number
In Iraq

The president said, 'Let it ride'
You will be damned
Make your last stand

I've never been
One for war
Sand were sinkin in
as thick as oil

Lion and the lamb
there all gone
there all gone
slaughter the lion and the lamb
for our home
for our home

ive never been
one for war
sand were sinkin in
as thick as oil

lion and the lamb
there all gone
there all gone
slaughter the lion and the lamb
for our home
for our home

what have
what have
what have
become

what have
what have
what have
become

of

lion and the lamb
there all gone
there all gone
slaughter the lion and the lamb
for our home
for our home
the lion and the lamb
there all gone
there all gone
slaughter the lion and the lamb
for our home

Break through the undertoe, your hands are grasping to fight,
pollution burns my tongue, the words i can't speak so I

stall myself again, then I fall to the surface,
throw my life with them, then let it out

I give it all, this is the reason why I sing,
So give it all, cause its these reasons that belong to me

Rock bottoms where we live, and still we dig these trenches,
bury ourselves in them, backs breaking on the tension

For far too long these voices, muffled by distances,
its time to come to our senses, and from the dark

We give it all, this is the reason why I sing,
So give it all, its these reasons that belong to me

Breathe, the air we give, the life we live, our voices raising distances,
so when my tongue, break into song, you seize a competition,

so please believe your eyes, of sacrifice,
is not what we had in our minds,
I'm coming home tonight, home tonight

We give it all, this is the reason why I sing,
So Give it all, its these reasons that belong to me

Today I offer all myself through this I'm living for my dying words,

If this is really living
Then why am I so unforgiving
Half the world is down the toilet
Half on its way

If I had a dollar for every time he hollers
Trust us with your hearts and minds
Or I'll make you pay

Trust me -- 2x

Ask me why you're feeling screwed
And I'll give you the answer
There's a Colon Dick & Bush
Justa hammerin' away

Ask me why you feel deceived
Stripped of all your liberties
It doesn't take a genius to explain
That today

It's such a sad state of affairs, and I don't care
A sad state of affairs
It's such a sad state of affairs – I don't care

Look at things long enough until they go away
But they're still there, aren't they?
And each little insect doesn't make me angry
And the dirt in the sink gets washed down the drain

It's such a sad state of affairs, and I don't care
A sad state of affairs
This place could use a little repair – I don't care

The TV on the table says listen to me hum
I sit on the sofa with my mind all numb
And each little murderer doesn't make me angry
And the dirt in the sink gets washed down the drain

Follow the flow, wherever it goes
Down the drain, and everything's clean
Follow the blood, where is the blood?
Washed away, away from the scene

Use your time and memorize the lullaby of the day
Process the data and throw it away
And each little question doesn't get me thinking

Give me an "M"-M!
Give me an "A"-A!
Give me a "U"-U!
Give me an "L"-L!
Give me your money - Sure!
What's that spell?-Mall
What's that spell?- Shopping Mall

'Scuse me
Pardon my greed-
You're evicted, time to leave
Don't matter if your family's lived here 30 years

We're tripling the rent
Time's up, the sheriff's here
Too bad for you if you freeze out in the street

The croissant and cookie palace
Downstairs will symbolize
The old neighborhood whose soul has slowly died
Been gentrified

CHORUS
That's progress
That's progress
Doesn't progress make you feel good inside?

Cameras catch you runnin' red lights
Schoolrooms with no windows
Computer picks your carreer at age 15

Universal Price Code I.D.'s
With the stripe the laser reads
And records where you've been, when you're sick
And what you eat

For every spy in government
There's 50 private eyes
Who round up dirt on you to keep on file
Then sell the file

CHORUS

Progress don't make me feel so good inside

You can't live here
We won't hire you
We know all the nasty things you do

Bought a dossier on your whole life
Clear back to the pranks you did in school at age 5

There's millions on file at the touch of a button
Your boss or your landlord will love our choice cuts of gossip
If it's lies, what can you do?
'Cos it costs too much to sue
The last person who'll ever see your file is you

Had enough, I moved back home
To the mountains where I belong
But ski resorts have tamed the wild west

The hills we used to roam
Now they're privately owned
And scarred with cheezy suburbs and cement

The 'Tracts For Sale' sign promises
'Deer in your back yard'
If the deer somehow get past the fences and guards
And the industrial 'park'

CHORUS

That's progress
That's progress
Looks like I'll have to move to Yellowknife

Progress-bleah!

We've had enough
We've had enough
We've had enough of the politicians
We've had enough yeah
Of these politician's wars
All we need right now is love
We've had enough of these military scoreboards
What we need right now is love, come on
We've had enough of these politician's wars
All we need right now is love
We've had enough of these military scoreboards
All we need right now is love
We've had enough of these politician's wars
All we need right now is love
We've had enough of these military scoreboards
All we need right now is love

Turn it up
The future is held in the hands
Who right the textbooks
Ignorance is bred when falsified thinking is taught
To the youth instead of
Past mistakes and mind elevation,
Like the graves that manifest destiny has created
So we can build our
Capitalist consumer based economy,
To build, market,
And sell commodities we don't need
But we are trained to believe like celebrity imaging
Well I'm here to take my feelings back and I hope That you will be with me

I can't wait for that day
When I hear us all screaming.
Ahhhhhhhhh,
I can't wait for that day
When I hear us all singing together,
Ooooohhhhhh
I can't wait for that day
When I hear us all screaming.
Ahhhhhhhhh
I can't wait for that day
When I hear us all singing together,
Ahhh,

I can't wait for the day
When I hear us all screaming,
HERE COMES THE REVOLUTION.
When every race color
And creed of militant human beings stand up
With fists together for substance and true meaning
Because right now we got our feet stuck in cement
We're too caught up in
A material status quo punishment
And one thing is for sure
And that's the sun will always set,
Darling you can bet our moon is quite the opposite
So baby take a axe to your makeup kit
Set ablaze the billboards and their advertisements
Love with all your hearts and never forget
How good it feels to be alive
And strive for your desire
Just cause you can't see
Your cage doesn't mean that you are free
When there are laws against nature
But its ok for you to be
Addicted to over the counter prescriptions
And magazines dictate all our human relations

I'm not buying, no I'm not giving in
To a culture that objectifies all of our women
I'm not buying, no I'm not consuming
The apathetic dribble on the news media's chin
I'm not buying, no I'm not giving in
The lies that are sold through textbooks to children
I'm not buying, no I'm not consuming
Cause the positive will
Always overcome the negative right

And we stay inside, its right outside,
We stand in line
We all enjoy the fences to keep it at bay

The wind is shifting, somethings different in the air.
I see it in the form of choices every where
And I've been asleep a lifetime just to wake in time to find...
the voice that has been speaking for me is no voice of mine!
NOW YOU'VE JUST BEEN SPOKEN FOR !
NOW YOU'VE JUST BEEN SOLD !
My eyes fixated on the life I left behind,
A puppet dreams of being human
Every time that a string gets pulled before you know, your dancin' to the lie
Of someone elses vision of the perfect waisted life.........

Its in the way we never seem to get it right !
A systematic form of bowin down and under,
And all we know is what we are, without the faith in WHO WE ARE
Soo desperate......

Somethin' here has gotta give and my instincts fill me with this dread,
That I've become what I'm tryin' to kill, that my appetite is my free
will.........

Look how the ruts cling to my footsteps
the fatal invisible tool
by which we define we fight! for our approval
and fear our removal from the safety of fools

from the tidal forces of our positions
not won not one! to take for granted
are our rebel hymns in canted
to sing in the mines for the fortunate sons?

So brothers in spirit sisters in rage,
will we live out our lives in this concrete cage?
another heartbeat lost another police murder
buried in the public eyes on the back page.
Heartbeats lost in a new world order
hobbled and bound but still walking away

I pledge allegiance to the world
nothing more, nothing less than my humanity
I pledge allegiance to the world
searching for vision not invisibility
I pledge allegiance to the world
searching for vision not invisibility
I pledge allegiance to the world
until the last lock breaks none of us are free
none of us are free...

we fight to balance our minds
petty powers pushing profits over our lifetimes
world leaders mortaging our lives with words
I don't need to be reminded of whom you really serve.

Brothers in spirit, sisters in rage,
will we live out or lives in this concrete cage?
another hearbeat lost another police murder
buried in the public eyes on the back page.
(Too many) heartbeats lost in the new world order
while we're standing alone with our backs to the maze

I pledge allegiance to the world
nothing more, nothing less than my humanity
I pledge allegiance to the world
until the last lock breaks none of us are free
I pledge allegiance to the world
until the last lock breaks none of us are free
I pledge allegiance to the world
for nothing more, nothing less

in justice in hunger united
searching for vision united
in justice in hunger united
law and order but for whose order?

I pledge allegiance to the world
nothing more, nothing less than my humanity
I pledge allegiance to the world
until the last lock breaks none of us are free
I pledge allegiance to the world
under no nation will we ever be
I pledge allegiance to the world
for nothing more, nothing less
than my humanity, than my humanity, than my humanity (pledge allegiance!)

God you must be kidding me, thought this was supposed to be
The home of the brave and the free for you and me
but now there's something wrong - shit's been going on too long.
It's never gonna change, there's no way so i say.
What's the CIA and the NRA?
They're all the same - just names are changed.
Fuck - there's no excuse - any way you lose.
It's all a joke in the god old USA.
All we need is more factories pumping filth into the sky.
Corporate greed and perverted priests, it's the story of our lives.
And apathy's the national disease and there is no end in sight.
God save the USA - blame the president and say your prayers tonight.
The irony of liberty is no one here is truly free
When elections are stolen by greed, the G.O.P.
So watch the nightly news - find out how you are getting screwed.
What you gonna do? - there's no use so i say
Fuck the industry - the aristocracy
They're all the same - just names are changed.
Fuck there's no excuse, any way you lose.
It's all a joke in the good old USA.
Government hypocricy -American Idolatry - Corporate philosophy.
Nightly news of tragedies - Whre no one cares what's right or wrong
Our heroes now are all long gone - The freedoms that we all abuse

Hear the walk, if I speak
Turn it into codes
Break it through, through the wall
Bring it up to speed
Innocence drifts away passing through pains
Just one person in a million waiting for that day
To start and end the line

Music : Freddie Mercury
Lyrics: Freddie Mercury

Love of my life
You've hurt me
You've broken my heart
And now you leave me
Love of my life
Can't you see
Bring it back, bring it back
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know
What it means to me

Love of my life
Don't leave me
You've taken my heart
You now desert me
Love of my life
Can't you see
Bring it back, bring it back
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know
What it means to me

You won't remember
When this is blown over
And everything's all by the way
When I get older
I will be there
At your side to remind you
How I still love you, I still love you

Back, bring it back
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know
What it means to me
Love of my life
Love of my life

Johnny has a problem
Johnny is out of control
He had a TV party
With the kids in the black hole
Stealing people's mail
And lynching the landlord
Things to do when angry, young and bored

Johnny was only a lad
Johnny hates the scene
First he hit an old man
Then he hit and run Pauline
The record player spinning the best times
I never had
So why do my old records make me sad?

Cause they're so bad
And no one seems to understand
The glory of guitar
When out of tune
The off timing
The singers who can't sing
The beauty of love

He's a teenage vegetable
This is the last resort
He's got PCP in his veins
He lives inside a quart
Johnny is a punk rocker
Johnny is he queer?
Johnny needed two bags
And a car to commandeer
Johnny wasn't liked much
But he had a lot of friends
Waits on stage
Eating ludes
A mindless brainwashed pig
Johnny was a good man
Till the day that he got shot
He had a jacked up chevy
That could blow you off the spot

Johnny always needs
More than he takes
Forgets a couple chords
Forgets a couple breaks
Johnny says he's bound
By only six strings to this world
Johnny questions sellout bands
And Johnny pux0rs Ritilin

It's The Law
We're sitting here in this cell
You know it's like a living hell
Was what you did really a crime?
The judge says you have to serve time

[Chorus]
It's the law, you're in jail
It's the law that sets your bail
Don't bother to try and fight
It's only a few more nights

The deputy had a bad night
He couldn't get it up for his wife
So he's gonna be pissed on the job and
He's gonna bum out your life

You told me that your 20 years have gone by much too fast
And you've been hoping this year will be better than the last
You said you've been waging a war against the loneliest of nights
With the strongest drinks and longest lines
It's not that big a surprise
That you're feeling more dead than alive
You're feeling more dead than alive

So I'll let you know
If you need, somewhere to go
I'll be listening when you call
And I'll be there if you fall off
If you need someone to believe in you,
I'll let you know I will

You said the hole in your head
Has gotten bigger than the hole in your chest
And you're stuck between the past and present tense
You said you've been waging a war against so many years of lies
With stronger drinks and longer lines
It's not that big a surprise
That you're feeling more dead than alive
You're feeling more dead than alive

So I'll let you know
If you need, somewhere to go
I'll be listening when you call
And I'll be there if you fall off
If you need someone to believe in you,
