When I was a grown up

When I was a little child
We had no gas but we had so much faith
The world was green, the world was wild
Atomic cities were blooming our minds
Tralalala…
When I was a teenager
My mama was a rockstar
She did’nt do drugs, she was a dreamer
She made people climb up to the stars
Ouh ouh ouh…
When I was a grown up
I was a fucking good president
Gave up my power, built an anarchy
I burried marriage, I burried money
Lalalala…
Dig out the kid I used to be
Dig out the kid I used to be… I used to be
Dig out the kid I used to be… I used to be
Dig out the kid I used to be… I used to be
When I was a grown up
I was a fucking good president
Gave up my power, built an anarchy
I burried marriage, I burried money
Ouh ouh ouh…
Lalalala…

I don't know

Something’s wrong, is that the way I talk?
Gods were drunk and Mama wasn’t told
Something’s weird is that the way I see?
Gods were playing and Mama wanted to sin
In the mirror nobody cheers
Feels like I was meant not to be here
Fells like I was meant not to stay… But
What people think and what people say…
I don’t know and I don’t care
I don’t know and I don’t care
Something’s wrong is that the way I feel?
Don’t remember anybody ever touched me
Something’s weird is that the way I move?
Never found my place into the groove
I was born and I was dead on the same day
Like the rain would never fall on a castaway
Like the rain would never fall on a freak… But
What people say and what people think…
I don’t know and I don’t care
I don’t know and I don’t care
I was born and I was dead on the same day
Like the rain would never fall on a castaway
Like the rain would never fall on a freak… But
What people say and what people think…
I don’t know and I don’t care
I don’t know and I don’t care
I don’t know and I don’t care
I don’t know and I don’t care
I don’t know and I don’t care
I don’t know and I don’t care

Not a love story
02:52

As he approached he was smiling
Such a beautiful face
He wrapped his arms around her body
She had never felt this light before
She’s had a little too much to drink
Her head was spinning a bit
She realised the were kissing
She had never kissed anyone before
He never said he was sorry
He didn’t see she was scared
He didn’t see she was crying
He didn’t even look her in the eyes
He never said he was sorry
He didn’t see she was scared
He didn’t see she was crying
He didn’t even look her in the eyes
He didn’t think it was dirty
He didn’t mean any harm
He was oh – so excited
He didn’t even wonder if she wanted to
She just needed to be hugged
She was craving for love
She just wanted to be held
She never even got to say NO!

The world is cold around us Baby
People, they just come and go
I wish I knew how to cope but maybe
There’s nothing I can do
The world is falling around us Baby
And people, well, they’d follow
I may be sad but you know, maybe
There’s nothing I need but you
Chill out and play me Baby
…
Chill out and freeze me Baby
That’s where we got to be
Got to be
So let’s escape in our own world Baby
We’ll build a place of our own
It may be friendship but you know maybe
It’s so more than love can do
And if they say we are fools, well, Baby
We’ll wear it… as a crown
We might be fools but I say that maybe
We’d get on no matter how
Chill out and play me Baby
…
Chill out and freeze me Baby
That’s where we got to be
Got to be
So hold me baby
Please freeze me
It’s where I wanna be
Where I wanna be
Hold my hand Baby
Please ease me
It’s where I wanna be
where I wanna be

Hey Baby
You’re so cool
And your skin is so perfect
How is it so?
Well… You know...
I get pretty in the sun, I get pretty in the rain
I get pretty in the light, and pretty in the dark.
I get pretty when I wake up
Pretty with some make up
Pretty when I'm glad, and pretty when I'm sad
I get pretty when I'm right, I get pretty when I'm wrong
Pretty when I'm weak, and pretty when I'm strong.
I get pretty when I fuck up
Pretty when I'm stuck up
Pretty when I'm sober, and pretty when I drink
But who cares?
who cares?
That I get pretty when you turn me on
And pretty when you show me off
Pretty in your big car, pretty as your doll,
Pretty as your wife, pretty as your toy
Pretty as the girl you laugh at, pretty as your baby
But who cares?
Who cares?
Who cares?
Who cares?
Who cares?
‘Cause nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh uh uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh uh uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody nobody nobody no!
I get lazy at the beach, I get lazy at the pool
I get lazy on my bed, and lazy on the couch
I get lazy after work, lazy after clean up
Lazy with your friends, and lazy with your beers
I get lazy when you book me up
And lazy when you take me down
Lazy when you frown, lazy when you come
Lazy in your arms, lazy with your bla bla
Lazy when I'm laid, lazy when I'm not paid
But who cares?
Who cares?
‘Cause nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh uh uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh uh uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody nobody nobody no!
Hey! I’m hungry, I’m thirsty
Where’s my pizza? Where’s my beer?
What have you been doing all day?
You lazy cow on a sofa
On a sunday afternoon!
You wanna fuck?
- No
Hu, of course not
Look at you, you’re eating all day
You’re fat
You’re fat
You’re fat, fat, fat!
‘Cause nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh uh uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh uh uh
Nobody gives a shit, uh
Nobody nobody nobody no!
Well… You know…

This kind of prick
04:23
|
|||
|
He's got personality
He has this authority
He doesn't even need a touch
I feel like an animal...
But I got love
For this kind of prick
And I got stuck
To such a dick
I battled all my fuckin' life
To live like any kind of man
A girl that doesn't need a guy
And freedom is my only friend
But I got trapped
By this kind of prick
And I got stuck
To such a dick
He deadly smile and crash my soul
I tried to fight a super male
His words were like an uppercut
A snake against a stupid mouse
But I got love
For this kind of prick
And I got stuck
To such a dick
Love love…
Oh baby baby baby baby...
Hey you, yes you
I got something to tell you boy
You made me cry
I nearly died
So shut up now
And prick up your ears
FUCK YOU!
But I got love… love… love… love
Love… love… love… love
Love… love… love… love
Love… love… love… love… love… love… love

My friend

Look like a cool girl
You ain’t fussy, you ain’t vain
Like you could fill the world
Look like a smart girl
You know the way, know what to say
You could open my world
I wanna be your friend
Wanna be your friend
Would you be my friend
Would you… be
Would you… be
My friend!
My friend!
Hey Buddy, when I first met you
You were a bit like me, you know, lost in translation
I thought you were an alien
Without green tentacles
With you I can share so many things
I can have tea, wine and biscuits
We can talk about anything, many things
We can laugh, we can cry, and even argue sometimes
And I know I won’t have to play a game
And I know I won’t be judged
And I know I can be myself
But most of all we can be two, two like together
So let me say one thing to you
I’m afraid to lose you as I lost all the people I loved before
Do we have to burry all those we love
Do we have to lose all what we got
Do we have to fight again and again
For a bit of happiness
So… please…
Don’t go away
Be there when
I need a hand
Please care
Would you… be
Would you… be
My friend!
My friend!
And if you turn your back
I will cry
Yeah if you turn your back
I will cry
If you turn your back
I will die
My friend
My friend
My friend

A companion
04:27

He’s a husband
And he's a best friend
He's not a lover anymore
But he's beloved
So when he comes to me - There's
nowhere I'd rather be
He hardly say I love you anymore - Well
He knows my heart and my mind just like before
So when he comes to me...
He was there in the saddest moment
When my life would have crashed in a second
A hand on my shoulder whenever
He would hear we whimper
He's always let me free - Honey
Do what you need to be happy
He's always listened to me
He's always understood - or tried at least
He knows what’s good for me
Even before I do
He sometimes launches me
To places I never knew
So when he comes to me
It's like it's meant to be…
He hardly say I love you anymore - Well
He knows my heart and my mind just like before
So when he comes to me…
He was there in the saddest moment
When my life would have crashed in a second
A hand on my shoulder whenever
he would hear we whimper
He's always let me free - Honey
Do what you need to be happy
He's always listened to me
He's always understood - or tried at least
And since the very first day
I never felt alone anymore
For he was so wise and thoughtful
No matter how young and - innocent
Though he’s the father of my children – Well
Nobody said it would last until the end
Still I know he’ll be here in ten years
He’d be here in a hundred years
It's like it's meant to be…

Yeah everything is fine
I know you'll let me be

His hands
03:56
|
|||
|
I’d build a tent With blankets and a chair
I’d stay there quiet and silent
Compressing my lungs so he wouldn’t hear my breath
I’d stay there quiet and silent
And shakin’ a little I’d cower, I’d fold in, I’d pray
I’d crawl under my bed With Teddy and a pillow
I’d stay there quiet and silent
Trying to sleep as I’d hear him walkin’ around
I’d stay there quiet and silent
And shakin’ a little I’d cower, I’d fold in, I’d pray
But he would, he would
Find me anyway
His hands are hammers, his hands are peaks
His hands are cold and thick
His hands are hammers, his hands are peaks
…
His hands are hammers, his hands are peaks
They don’t know how to care, they hit
His hands are hammers, his hands are cold
… So cold
I’d walk away in my dreams
I’d run away
I’d fly away
I’d walk away with no fear
I’d laugh away
I’d shout away
I’d give away all my tears
They’ll flow away
They’ll drift away
And I’d rather die than stay
Oh I’d rather die than stay
Yes I’d rather die than stay
For his hands are hammers, his hands are peaks
His hands are saws and my body’s a tree
His hands are drillers, his nails are claws
His hands are feet and my head is a football
And as he hits me, Mummy where are you
You hear my cries don’t you!
And as he hits my body falls apart
And as he hits my mind falls apart
What will remain of me?
What will remain of me?
What will remain
