It's autumn in Gothenburg
I'm walking home to my suburb Rain falls hard on the city On every homeless kitty Oh please god bring relief even if it's only brief that she says the dreamer just make-believe but I thought she said maple leaves So we talked for hours and you cried into my sheets you said you ghated your body that it was just a piece of meat, i disagreed I think you're beautiful but it's impossible to make you understand that if you don't take my hand i lose my mind completely Madness will finally defeat me She said it was all make-belief but I thought you said maple leaves and when she talked about the fall I thought she talked about the season I never understood at all I thought she said maple leaves and when she talked about the fall I thought she talked about Mark E Smith I never understood at all I never understood at all I never understood at all |

I'm standing here waiting for you to come
In the sky some kind of strange sky phenomenon Feels strange to have you as a friend But I'd rather be your friend Than to never see you again I'd rather be your friend You stare at the sky, colours reflecting in your eye Could it be what they call the northern lights But here, and at this time of year It's like someone spilled a beer All over the atmosphere It's like someone spilled a beer And I called out your name Like the name of a coming hurricane I called out your name Like you call out when you're in hurting pain I called out your name But you're a part in a heavenly silver rain You and I are not the same We are divided by the smoke of an aeroplane Of an aeroplane A flock of birds in the sky Flying south, they know this place will die And I wish they could take me with them But I would not be accepted 'Cause I can't dance the funky chicken I can't dance the funky chicken I'm standing here waiting for you to come In the sky some kind of strange sky phenomenon |

Early September and the kids start school
Leaves are floating in a swimming pool I wish I had a proper reason to cry A reason not so abstract More like a broken clause in a contract All those things you're supposed to do I could have done them if I had you You could have made me a righteous citizen I could have made all those right decisions But now I don't know who my friend is Can you tell me, Rocky Dennis? Now I don't know who my friend is Can you tell me, Rocky Dennis? Mama told me I was born a lion Mama told me I was born with a belly to lie on Mama told me I was born a liar Mama told me I was born with a heart to rely on But now I don't know who my friend is Can you tell me, Rocky Dennis? Now I don't know who my friend is Can you tell me, Rocky Dennis? Can you tell me, can you tell me tonight? Oh, oh, oh Oh, tonight Can you tell me tonight? |

Oh Julie, meet me by the vending machine
Oh Julie, I'm gonna buy you a wedding ring Eating French fries by the dock of the bay Lots of ketchup and mayonnaise You said this town's too big for our hearts You can't tell where it ends or starts Oh Julie, put on your jacket tonight Oh Julie, the ticket inspector's out of sight What will you do when you graduate? If you stay here you will suffocate And all your friends are moving to London While the cherry trees are still in blossom Oh Julie Oh hold me, hold me for the sweet hereafter The end with you can be very fatal Somehow we forget to pray for the angels Then the angels make sure that our hearts are devoured. Make us jump from the Eiffel Tower Oh Julie, you know that I ain't for hire But you can have me. You can trade me for your cigarette lighter Take a step from the humdrum Step out of the museum They said we had hit the bottom But the cherry trees are still in blossom Oh Julie, you know that I ain't for hire But you can have me I would invite you back to the invention of fire Oh Julie |

Oh, I still remember "Regulate" with Warren G

A man walks into a bar
Orders a beer and a bowl of peanuts But the bar turns into a spaceship And the bartender gives him a hair cut I can't remember the end of that joke You once told it to me when we smoked On your father's expensive cigars All I remember is the part of a man walking into a bar How many lovers does it take To put a light bulb into a socket? And why did Mona Lisa smile? I have the answer written down in my pocket I just remember I laughed 'till I cried Because you told it with your funny voice Your southern dialect makes me rejoice Those special times we had When love was just a silly gag I know why Mona Lisa smile Da Vinci must have been a really funny guy And laughter is the only way into my heart I know why Mona Lisa smile Da Vinci must have been a really funny guy And laughter is the only way into my heart Summer night on a gravel road You told me about your childhood friend Veronica Who was claimed to have swallowed a toad And I picked up my harmonica I know why Mona Lisa smile Da Vinci must have been a really funny guy And laughter is the only way into my heart I know why Mona Lisa smile Da Vinci must have been a really funny guy And laughter is the only way into my heart A man walks into a bar Orders a scotch and a bottle of coke But the laughter is gone in his heart You never told me the end of the joke |

Would you stand up for this kind of beauty?
Cause this kind of beauty won't stand up for you. It won't lift a finger for some lazy dreamer. Here it comes the average dirty word, pardon my French But I'm sitting on an park bench, watching yearning cats milk-fed little brats. And they say: Love won't pick the slanted or the slick or the lovesick, and I'm lovesick. So I say F-word, f-word pardon my French but it's bs, bs can't you feel the stench? F-word, f-word pardon my French but it's bs, bs. Summer evening, cats are screaming for love. Is summer evening, the cats screaming for love. So I say F-word, f-word pardon my French but it's bs, bs can't you feel the stench? F-word, f-word pardon my French but it's bs, bs can't you feel the stench? F-word, f-word pardon my French but it's bs, bs can't you feel the stench? F-word, f-word pardon my French but it's bs, bs can't you feel the stench? F-word, f-word pardon my French but it's bs, bs can't you feel the stench? F-word, f-word pardon my French but it's bs, bs. |

I still wear these worn out jeans
I have to wear long-johns undeneath Down by the harbour there's a cool cool breeze I've never wondered if oceans can freeze Strings on my fathers old guitar the position of the northern star the clock-like beat of the budgies heart tick-tick-tick now they know where you are I try the light () from the Xerox-machine the gentle beat of a tambourine And it's like I can't stand to see you with another man I just don't wanna see good love fall into the wrong hands Behind the craze there's a pretty sunset water shines like tiny bells I feel the warmth in the cigarette but everything else And it's like I can't stand to see you with another man I just don't wanna see good love fall into the wrong hands I try the light () from the Xerox-machine the gentle beat of a tambourine And it's like I can't stand to see you ruin our plans I just don't wanna see good love fall into the wrong hands fall into the wrong hands |
