Let's go
one man at the window
one girl at the bar
saw that look of recognition
when they know just who you are
i seen you on the tv
i seen you on that show
where you make the people crazy
and then you let them go
before the show we calm them
we sympathise, we care
and the hostile folk we keep apart
til the red light says 'on air
did you see our...
Umzingelt von Spiegeln
von Traeumen befleckt
Der Saum schnuert ein
was im Koerper steckt
Sanft der Bauch, gespannter Muskel
weiche Tuecher auf der Tigerhaut
Feucht wie Gras
reif und schwer wie Bluetenpollen
der Schwamm ist voll
keiner hat es sehen wollen
Auf alles legt sich Kon-ver-sa-tion
Glasur auf warmem, frischem Kuchen
Licht draengt durch ihre...
I'm scared of swimming in the sea
dark shapes moving under me
every fear i swallow makes me small
inconsequential things occur
alarms are triggered
memories stir
it?s not the way it has to be
i?m afraid of what i do not know
i hate being undermined
i?m afraid i can be devil man
and i?m scared to be divine
don?t mess with me my fuse is short
beneath...
in this proud land we grew up strong
we were wanted all along
I was taught to fight, taught to win
I never thought I could fail
no fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I've changed my face, I've changed my name
but no one wants you when you lose
don't give up
'cos you have friends
don't give up
you're not beaten yet...
September '77
Port Elizabeth weather fine
It was business as usual
In police room 619
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Yihla Moja, Yihla Moja
-The man is dead
When I try and sleep at night
I can only dream in red
The outside world is black and white
With only one colour dead
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko
Oh Biko, Biko, because...
The streets are lined with camera crews
Everywhere he goes is news
Today is different
Today is not the same
Today I make the action
Take snapshot into the light, snapshot into the light
I'm shooting into the light
Four miles down the cavalcade moves on
Driving into the sun
If I worked it out right
They won't see me or the gun
Two miles to go,...
When the night shows
the signals grow on radios
All the strange things
they come and go, as early warnings
Stranded starfish have no place to hide
still waiting for the swollen Easter tide
There's no point in direction we cannot even choose a side.
I took the old track
the hollow shoulder, across the waters
On the tall cliffs
they were getting...
I want to be with you
I want to be clear
but each time I try
it's the voice I hear
I hear that voice again
I'm listening to the conversation
judge and jury in my head
it's colouring everything
all we did and said
and still I head that sharp tongue talking
talking tangled words
I can sense the danger
just listen to the wind
I want you close I want...
Los gehts
ein mann am fenster
ein mädchen an der bar
sah den ausdruck von bewunderung
als ihnen bewusst wurde, wer du bist
ich sah dich im fernsehen
ich sah dich in dieser show
wo du die leute verrückt gemacht hast
and dann gehen lassen hast
vor der show beruhigen wir sie
wir sympathisieren, wir sorgen uns
und die feindlichen leute halten wir fern,...
I looked up at the tallest building
Felt it falling down
I could feel my balance shifting
Everything was moving around
These streets so fixed and solid
A shimmering haze
And everything that I relied on disappeared
Downside up, upside down
Take my weight from the ground
Falling deep in the sky
Slipping in the unknown
All the strangers look like...
The time I like is the rush hour, cos I like the rush
The pushing of the people - I like it all so much
Such a mass of motion - do not know where it goes
I move with the movement and ... I have the touch
I'm waiting for ignition, I'm looking for a spark
Any chance collision and I light up in the dark
There you stand before me, all that fur and all...
Saturday is shopping day and I drive my car but there's no place to park it,
No respect for supermen in the supermarket.
I guess there must be trouble but I've not been alerted;
Looking round the store, it was all deserted
And I'm stranded here with my empty basket,
So full of questions but nowhere to ask it.
Chorus:
By the one way out, strange...
Saturday is shopping day--
I drive my car but there's no place to park it
--no respect for superman in supermarket
I guess there must be trouble but I not been alerted
looking round the store it was all deserted and I'm
stranded here with my empty basket
so full of question got nowhere to ask it
By the one way out
strange voice shout
";Don't let...
Don't break this rhythm, don't break this motion
All this momentum keeps stealing through
Across the cornfields, through all the marshland
There's nothing gonna stop this thing
Clear the trees, burn the brushwood
Bring the diggers in, I'm gonna move this earth
Lay the big stones, put down the sleepers
Haul the steel in, I will beat this land
Don't...
Lost my time lost my place in
sky blue
those two blue eyes light your face in
sky blue
i know how to fly, i know how to drown in
sky blue
warm wind blowing over the earth
sky blue
i sing through the land, the land sings through me
sky blue
reaching into the deepest shade of
sky blue
sky blue so tired of all this travelling
so many miles away from...
D.I.Y., D.I.Y., D.I.Y., D.I.Y.
Don't tell me what I will do, 'cos I won't.
Don't tell me to believe in you, 'cos I don't.
Be on your guard, better hostile and hard, don't risk affection;
Like flesh to the bone in the no-go zone,
You're still looking for the Resurrection.
Come up to me with your "What did you say?"
And I'll tell you, straight in the...
Don't tell me what I will do, 'cos I won't

--don't risk affection
Like flesh to the bone in the no-go zone
you're still waiting for teh resurrection
Come up to me with your ";What did you say?";
and I'll tell you straight in the eye
D.I.Y. D.I.Y. D.I.Y. D.I.Y....
Wie nett hier - der Blick auf den Park
Mahlzeit mit dem Loeffel?
Warum keine Messer?
Sie schauen auf den Park
jeden Tag
bestimmt - bald schon geht es ihnen besser
