02. Stardust
Oh, look what they've done to the rock'n'roll clown,
Oh, rock'n'roll clown, look he's down on the ground,
Well he used to high fly
but he crashed out the sky
In a Stardust fling, hey
rock 'n roll king is down
Roll on up, won't you come and take a look at me,
Roll on up, come one at a time and see me
See my painted-on grin
as I stand up to sing
In a stardust fling, hey
rock'n'roll king is down
But he's the leader of the band
He is a lonely man
Don't you wanna take his hand
Yes you know you can
Well he used to high fly
but he crashed out the sky
In a Stardust fling, hey
rock 'n roll king is down
In a Stardust fling, hey
rock 'n roll king is down
In a Stardust fling, hey
rock 'n roll king is down.
03. I Cast A Lonesome Shadow
Every evening when the sun goes down I sit here in my room
And the lamplight streaming over me projects my lonely gloom
My counterpart in agony mocks each tear that falls
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
He's always by my side at night no matter where I go
He lurks out in the darkness or in the neon's glow
He follows me across the steps and up and down the hall
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
I sit and watch the candle and the flicker of the flame
My writhing shadow twists and turns as though it is in pain
I'm trying to escape the memory my mind recalls
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
The image of a love I lost and all the things I'd planned
Are as empty as this bottle that I hold in my hand
My soul is buried in the depths of love and life's pitfalls
And I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
I cast a lonesome shadow on these lonely, lonely walls
04. In My Other World
In my other world
There is no pain
And all my thoughts
Are clouds of happiness
In my other world
My heard beats red
There is no gun
Pointed at my head
And I don't really want your kiss
My thoughts don't make me cry
My heart's not filled with grey sadness
My ears can't hear you lie
And I can't even see your face
I've never heard your name
My heart is still my thoughts are calm
And the light has filled this space
In my other world
My pain is bliss
I own your soul
I own your kiss
In my other world
05. Loverman
There's a devil waiting outside your door (How much longer)
There's a devil waiting outside your door
It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor
And he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls
There's a devil waiting outside your door
He's weak with evil and broken by the world
He's shouting your name and he's asking for more
There's a devil waiting outside your door
Loverman! Since the world began
Forever, Amen Till end of time Take off that
dress I'm coming down I'm your loverman
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
L is for LOVE, baby
O is for ONLY you that I do
V is for loving VIRTUALLY all that you are
E is for loving almost EVERYTHING that you do

M is for MURDER me
A is for ANSWERING all of my prayers

be the answer to all of yours Loverman!
Till the bitter end while empires burn down Forever and ever
and ever and ever Amen I'm your loverman
So help me, baby So help me
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am, I'll be your loverman!
There's a devil crawling along your floor
There's a devil crawling along your floor
With a trembling heart, he's coming through your door
With his straining sex in his jumping paw
There's a devil crawling along your floor
And he's old and he's stupid and
he's hungry and he's sore and he's lame and he'sblind
and he's dirty and he's poor, give him more
There's a devil crawling along your floor
Loverman! Here I stand Forever, Amen
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
Forgive me, baby My hands are tied
And I got no choice No, I got no choice at all I'll say it again

To take off your dress And be your man

Seize the crown Cause I am what I am
What I am what I am I'm your loverman!
There's a devil lying by your side
You might think he's asleep
but look at his eyes
He wants you, baby, to be his bride
There's a devil lying by your side
Loverman! Loverman!
06. By This River
Here we are stuck by this river
You and I underneath a sky
That's ever falling down down down
Ever falling down
Through the day as if on an ocean
Waiting here always failing to remember
Why we came came came
I wonder why we came
You talk to me as if from a distance
And I reply with impressions chosen
From another time time time
From another time
07. Lost In the Stars
Before Lord God made the sea and the land,
He held all the stars in the palm of his hand.
And they ran through his fingers like grains of sand,
And one little star fell alone.
Then the Lord God hunted through the wide night air
For the little dark star on the wind down there.
And he stated and promised he'd take special care
So it wouldn't get lost again.
Now a man don't mind if the stars grow dim
And the clouds blow over and darken him,
So long as the Lord God's watching over them,
Keeping track of how it all goes on.
But I've been walking all the night and the day,
Till my eyes get weary and my head turns gray.
And sometimes it seems maybe God's gone away,
And we're lost out here in the stars.
Little stars, big stars, blowing through the night,
And we're lost out here in the stars.
Little stars, big stars, blowing through the night,
And we're lost out here in the stars.
08. Oh My Love
Oh my love for the first time in my life,
My eyes are wide open.
Oh my love for the first time in my life,
My eyes can see.
I see the wind,
Oh, I see the trees.
Every thing is clear in my heart.
I see the clouds,
Oh, I see the sky.
Everything is clear in our world.
Oh my love for the first time in my life,
My mind is wide open.
Oh my lover for the first time in my life,
My mind can feel.
I feel the sorrow,
Oh, I feel dreams.
Everything is clear in my heart.
I feel life,
Oh, I feel love.
Everything is clear in our world.
09. Das Lied Vom Einsamen Mädchen
Sie herzte sanft ihr Spielzeug
Bevor sie es zerbrach
Und hatte eine Sehnsucht
Und wuBte nicht wonach
Weil sie einsam war
Und so blond ihr Haar
Und ihr Mund so rot wie Wein
Und wer von diesem Wein trank
Konnt' nie mehr glucklich sein
Doch einer sprach im Fruhling:
"Auch Du fuhlst Lust und Schmerz"
Und brach ihr tausend Rosen
Doch sie brach nur sein Herz
Weil sie einsam war
Und so blond ihr Haar
Und ihr Mund so rot wie Wein
Ja, keine konnt' so kussen
Und doch so einsam sein
Was blieb von ihrem Leben
Ein Lied, das niemand sang
St. Peter lieB sie warten
Zwei Ewigkeiten lang
Weil sie einsam war
Und so blond ihr Haar
Und ihr Herz so tot wie Stein
Dann rief er: "Armes Kind, komm,
Sollst nie mehr einsam sein"

10. Tiny Girls
Well the day begins
You don't want to live
'Cause you can't believe
In the one you're with
'Cause you know her tricks
And you know her past
When she makes a face
You just have to laugh
And you feel like such a know-it-all
When you only want just a tiny girl
And you hope she'll sing
So you turn around
Toward the tiny girls
Who have got no tricks
Who have got no past
Yea that's what you think
And you hope she'll sing
But she sings of greed
Like a young banshee
And she wants for this
And she wants for that
What did you think
11. Candy Says
Candy says, I've come to hate my body
And all that it requires in this world
Candy says, I'd like to know completely
What others so discreetly talk about
I'm gonna watch the bluebirds fly
over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch 'em pass me by
maybe when I'm older
What do you think I'd see
if I could walk away from me
Candy says, I hate the quiet places
That cause the smallest taste of what will be
Candy says, I hate the big decisions
That cause endless revisions in my mind
I'm gonna watch the bluebirds fly
over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch 'em pass me by
maybe when I'm older
What do you think I'd see
if I could walk away from me
Doo-doo-wah
Doo, doo-doo-wah
Doo, doo-doo-wah
Doo, doo-doo-wah
Doo, doo-doo-wah
Doo
The Song of The Lonely Girl (Das Lied Vom Einsamen Mädchen)
Tenderly she cradled her toy
Before she smashed it up
A longing filled her heart
What for, she did not know
For she was lonely
And her hair so fair
And her mouth as red as wine
And whoever drank of this wine
Could never know happiness again
Yet, someone spoke up in springtime:
You, too, know pleasure and pain."
He brought her a thousand roses
Yet she only broke up his heart
For she was lonely
And her hair so fair
And her mouth as red as wine
Yes, no one could kiss so
And still be so lonely
What remained of her life
A song which no one sang
St. Peter kept her waiting
For ages
For she was lonely
And her hair so fair
And her heart as dead as stone
He called forth: "Come, poor child,
You shall never be lonely again."
Life Is Strange
Strange,
life is strange, life is strange,
Oh life is strange.
O god, life is strange,
People come and people go,
Some move fast and some move slow,
No, no, no, no, no.
O god, life is good,
Some are fat and some are thin,
Some don't even ask you how you've been,
No, no, no, no, no.
Strange,
life is strange, life is strange.
Oh life is strange.
O god, life is strange,
Some are fast and some are slow,
Some believe, me don't even know,
No, no, no, no, no.
Strange,
life is strange, life is strange.
Oh my life is strange.
Left Hand Luke And The Begger Boys
Call yourself friend, and look me in the eye,
I'll unstrap my knees an apologise,
'Cos I'm, Left Hand Luke and the begger boys,
O yes we are.
Ain't no neighbours, upon our hill,
'Crept slight thigh Be-bop and old gumbo jill,
But I'm, Left Hand Luke and the begger boys,
O yes we are.
Ain't nobody's some-one,
And it hurts deep inside,
Just call us taxi mama and we'll take you for a ride,
'Cos we're, Left Hand Luke and the begger boys.
O yes we are.
Left hand luke and the begger boys,
O yes we are.
Myxomatosis is an animal's disease,
But I got so shook up mama that it ate away my knees,
And I'm Left Hand Luke and the begger boys,
O yes we are.
Ain't had no money lord, but it's plain to see,
If you had some silver mister how much would you pay for me?
'Cos I'm, Left Hand Luke and the begger boys,
O yes we are.
