The Morning After (The Of The World)
I guess I was around when God shouted ’Timber!’
But I still can’t answer the question at hand
I don’t know if it ended with a bang or a whimper
I’m not even sure that the whole thing was all planned
But the morning after the Sun would reappear
Take a look at Planet Earth and shed a flaming tear
Heaps of cars, bricks, and stones
Here and there a naked bone
Black burned stretches of barren fields
Enough to make you feel alone
No decent air to breathe
No rivers running clean
No place for love to meet
No lovers to be seen
I guess I was around when God shouted ’Timber!’
But I still can’t answer the question at hand
I don’t know if it ended with a bang or a whimper
I’m not even sure that the whole thing was all planned
But the morning after the Sun came around
Had a glimpse or two and was never again to be found
No flowers left to shine upon
No cities rising tall
No people doing silly things
No animals at all
No decent air to breathe
No rivers running clean
No place for love to meet
No lovers to be seen

Dream Hammer
You may say I’m a dreamer
But at least I’m dreaming of you
Mostly nightmares it seems now
At least I’m dreaming of you
You’re coming right at me with an axe
And I’m defending myself with a hammer
Somehow the scene appears so relaxed
Probably due to the tequila slammers
We should never have gone down this road
We should never have gone down at all
Although you’re moving your motions are slowed
And now my hammer’s gonna fall

Free Speech Rules
If this is what it takes for you to feel hurt – if this it what it takes for you to feel offended
Maybe you should stay clear of all the dirt someone on SoMe just recommended
And if you still have doubts regarding gender, religion, identity or race
Or whatever is on your offended agenda – I’m a firm believer in ignoring your case
So take your cultural appropriation and shove it where the sun don’t shine
Along with all your cancel cult aggression ’cause you’re obviously out of your friggin’ mind
A concoction of cromosomes made me a male, and it would clearly show if I only undressed
And even if I’m a whole lot whiter than pale there is no truth in the claim that I ever oppressed
You say again and again that you want my respect but respect is an honor you’ll have to earn
Safe space demands on campus have the oppostite effect – the cross you’re bearing is not the cross you’re about to burn
So take your cultural appropriation and shove it where the sun don’t shine
Along with all your cancel cult aggression ’cause you’re obviously out of your friggin’ mind
You say you’re a victim and if so you ought to know:
Opposing free speech is never the right way to go
And if you really need trigger warnings on the classics
It just goes to show you’re nothing short of a fascist
So take your cultural appropriation and shove it where the sun don’t shine
Along with all your cancel cult aggression ’cause you’re obviously out of your friggin’ mind
You play a certain song on your stereo
And you say that I can’t sing along
Cause it contains a certain word
And now I’m hurt

Jack (III)
The soap opera we’ve been living
seems to have been cancelled
Now I’m sitting here reading
a letter to Jack written with your pencil
It goes:
Jack – to me you are so dear
Jack – I need you right here
Jack – I wish you’d never gone (so wrong)
Jack – come back and sing your song (all day long)

God’s Refrain
Everything you see is just a mental thing
Everything you do is devised by the brain
Every little creep and all the birds that sing
Even you and I are merely notes in God’s refrain
So when I woke up and found you lying there naked
Flat on the floor posing almost kinda funny
I found it hard to think of a way how to shake it
That gloomy feeling falling down upon me
Nobody loved you like I used to do
Nobody used you like I loved using you
After all is said – after all is done
After all the blood in our bed – we’re all still one

Anything From Anyone

Anything From Anyone
I took you for an angel, I rode you like a horse
Anything from anyone will do
There wasn’t any ”why” and I needed no ”because”
Anything from anyone will do
You came up on a truck somewhere from the East
Anything from anyone will do
Picked up in a street for your abilities to please
Anything from anyone you’ll do
Now you’re lying covered in stains
In your excruciating pain
And there’s so little to be gained
Even if you could go back by train, boat, or aeroplane
Just above the 18 wheels carrying my truck
Anything from anyone will do
Chained to tons of steel you’re shit out of luck
Anything from anyone will do
But I could grow to love you, I could really care
Anything from anyone will do
I ain’t got a lot of money but what I’ve got I’ll gladly share
Anything from anyone will do
Still you’re lying covered in stains
In your excruciating pain
And there’s so little to be gained
Even if you could go back by train, boat, or aeroplane

She Purred
These are the words
Let's find a melody
Cause here come the hurts
In all their mediocrity
She called me honey
Although I’m quite a loner
I tried to act funny
In order to get to bone her
And I was almost in
I was almost there
When I considered my sin
Stopped and drenched my face in her hair
She’s got another man
And I’ve got another girl
This we should understand
It’s a cruel cruel world
But I was really smitten
I believe I’d call it love
She purred like a kitten
And it’s all I’m thinking of
Cause she’s got the shape of my dreams
Or at least so it seems
The mere thought of her skin
Is making me cave in
So I’m trying to convince her
To be mine for ever more
But in my heart it’s winter
Though it’s spring outside my door
Now she is claiming
She’s fine where she is
So I’ve started aiming
Straight for the abyss
Yeah, now she is claiming
He's cool and can kiss
So I’ve started aiming
Straight for the abyss
Cause I’m really smitten
I believe I’d call it love
She purred like a kitten
And it’s all I’m thinking of

Wall Street Preacher
I can see by the color of your collar
That you’re a man of good employment
You believe in the almighty dollar
Even when it destroys men
But can you see by the shape of my collar
That I’m a man of good intentions
And even if you hear me holler
It’s all down to my apprehension
Cause I’m sure I’ve read some stuff
That made me think we’ve had enough
Of that shit that’s going down all around
Of the terror from your green
And the crap from your machines
And the way television makes it sound
Now can you see by the length of my shadow
That it’s getting late, young man
Now, I don’t want you feeling sad, no
I just want you to understand
Cause I’m sure I’ve read some stuff
That made me think we’ve had enough
Of that shit that’s going down all around
Of the terror from your green
And the crap from your machines
And the way television makes it sound

Crash & Carry
Today in the rain I was forced to say goodbye
Today you were killed as a huge thing came by
A fast moving truck just tore our lives apart
Now no amount of shock can ignite your bloody heart
Today I met a mountain of metal, glass, and tears
Today I bled a fountain while facing my worst fears
I never cared too much for death, not even for my own
But I can't stop caring for the death I've come to know
Just before the crash you where driving me wild
We were contemplating making a child
I was buckled up on our way to the motel
With your face between my legs doing what you did so well
Today your face never seemed more real
Today is a disgrace as you're crushed beneath a wheel
My dream of divorce has been flushed down the drain
I could use some brutal force to ease my everlasting pain
You were my muscle, my pulse, and my rock
My only way out to avoid getting stuck
You filled me right and you made my bed
Now you're no longer mine – you belong to the dead
Just before the crash you where driving me wild
We were contemplating making a child
I was buckled up on our way to the motel
With your face between my legs doing what you did so well
Yeah, just before the crash you were the man of my life
I was to become your eternal loving wife
Just a life ago you were building us a house
Now I’ll carry on – still chained to my spouse

La Covida Loca
There is something in the air
Is it love being spread?
Or a reason to beware
On our path to the Dead?
It's crossing every border
Is it time to panic through?
Will it trigger the New Order?
Will the sky return to blue?
Now the gods have come down with a brilliant plan
Now the forests are getting back at the man
It’s a great time to be alive and apart
It’s a wonderful chance for a brand new start
The Paris birds are singing
The Venice fish are jumping
The bells of Death are ringing
And the buffalo are humping
There’s a little less pollution
Thanks to Covid-19
One must welcome the intrusion
And embrace the quarantine
Now the gods have come down with a brilliant plan
Now the forests are getting back at the man
It’s a great time to be alive and apart
It’s a wonderful chance for a brand new start

Boot Camp Blues
I went to punish terrorists
To bring order and democracy
It turned out they would all resist
Direct their hatred towards me
I was in command of the young recruits
In the desert of Afghanistan
Now I’m living in the northern woods
As a devastated has-been man
I can’t tell what the fight is about no more
And they’ve changed the enemy again
But I know we’re way behind in score
I suggest we put the command in chains
I can’t tell what the fight is about no more
And they’ve changed the enemy again
But I know we’re way behind in score
I suggest we put the command in chains

The Morning After (The End Of The World)
I guess I was around when God shouted ’Timber!’
But I still can’t answer the question at hand
I don’t know if it ended with a bang or a whimper
I’m not even sure that the whole thing was all planned
But the morning after the Sun would reappear
Take a look at Planet Earth and shed a flaming tear
Heaps of cars, bricks, and stone
Here and there a naked bone
Black burned stretches of barren fields
Enough to make you feel alone
No decent air to breathe
No rivers running clean
No place for love to meet
No lovers to be seen
I guess I was around when God shouted ’Timber!’
But I still can’t answer the question at hand
I don’t know if it ended with a bang or a whimper
I’m not even sure that the whole thing was all planned
But the morning after the Sun came around
Had a glimpse or two and was never again to be found
No flowers left to shine upon
No cities rising tall
No people doing silly things
No animals at all
No decent air to breathe
No rivers running clean
No place for love to meet
No lovers to be seen
