Fake Gold 02:47
I walk on the streets The way that I please Head held high I don't have, I don't have a world to fix I know well your kind And you ain't got no style Just keep on talking and talking and talking But the world don't spin 'round you You're fake gold and you ain't solution, don't you know? They say we live it once And I'm just done With all the wiping and lying and crying Just keep it all to you You're fake gold and you ain't solution, don't you know? Get out!

Baby say go, baby say no Baby say go, baby say no I don't know... Make up your mind! Was killed six times by your knife heart Got seven lives so I'm still alright Keep knocking on my door Keep me on the telephone It never happened, ever will? I don't know, smoke and chill Gotta smoke and chill, get it! Baby say go, baby say no Baby say go, baby say no I don't know... You got to make up your mind! Was killed six times by your knife heart Got seven lives so I'm still alright Keep knocking on my door Keep me on the telephone It never happened, ever will? I don't know, smoke and chill Noise of the trains on the tracks Delivery guys goin' back Sun is out, winter's gone Got no money, got no home Got no fucking home! [SOLO] Keep knocking on my door Keep me on the telephone It never happened, ever will? I don't know, smoke and chill Noise of the trains on the tracks Delivery guys goin' back Sun is out, come on honey! Got no home Got no money Got no money Got no money I got no money, but look!

The volume's up, up in the night There's six persons, but I don't care Got to deliver, gotta bring it through And make you move and energize you Gonna live my way, no matter what they say I come from a thousand miles Ain't got a dime but I got a smile Seven lives like the alley black cat To make you move and dance to this track Gonna live my way, no matter what they say I'm gonna live this way... Till the end of the days! Turn on the amp, I'm on fire The guitar sound goes out for miles Got to deliver, gotta bring it through To make you move and energize you Gonna live my way, no matter what they say I'm gonna live this way... Till the end of the days! [SOLO] So, do you think I'm wasting my time? Up here, baby I'm on fire Seven lives like the alley black cat To make you move and dance to this track Gonna live my way, no matter what they say Gonna live this way, no matter what's the pay Gonna live this way, no matter what they say I'm gonna live this way... Till the end of the days!

Drugs & booze do bring me satisfaction I'm done with that shit, that's too much action I'm tired of wakin' up naked on the floor I'm tired of crazy dealers out slammin' on my door Monday night (I'll stay cool) Tuesday night (I'll stay cool) Baby you're cool but you're outta your mind Drop that whiskey, don't you start no fight 27 years, not 27 lives Watch youtube and smoke cigars Monday night (I'll stay cool) Tuesday night (I'll stay cool) Wednesday night (I'll stay cool) Thursday night (I'll hang with you) [SOLO] Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday... I can't hang with you I'm not into that shit, I stopped But you have something to sell?! (I'll hang with you)

You feel the smell of despair in the air But nobody really cares You got the brain and the country is dark It's so easy to make it hard And to be true You got nothing to lose But you think you do Another day with your enemies In a sorrow symphony And to be true You got nothing to lose But you think you do Berlin calling Berlin calling Break your wall What you're waiting for? You step aside, leave your friends behind Take it easy on the night life Far far from the right far Inequality hits so hard And to be true You got nothing to lose But you think you do Berlin calling Berlin calling Break your wall What you're waiting for?

Dance 03:26
I saw her at 9:45 in a bar nearby Looked so bored that I'd give a try Dropped by and said hi Cute eyes & a tender smile Livin' on Friedrichshain She spent hours on the telephone With her ex, a guy called Ron But in the midnight hour The sheep's turned into wolves A double gin and your body go It's time to make the blood flow We gotta dance! And show them How we do it How we do it How we do it now! Hangin' out the telephone And now baby we are on our own Dance floor seems so alive Lemme guide you tonite You know James Brown´s Boogaloo? I'm gonna show it to you But she got back on the telephone Now talking to her mom But in the midnight hour The sheep's turned into wolves A double gin and your body go It's time to make the blood flow We gotta dance! And show them How we do it How we do it How we do it now! MOVE! [SOLO] But in the midnight hour The sheep's turned into wolves A double gin and your body go It's time to make the blood flow We gotta dance! And show them How we do it How we do it How we do it now!

I was looking for action, with no direction When i saw you hangin' around I asked for a smoke and far, far it goes We got together but you had a meltdown Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks at my window In the back of my car! Baby calm down, what do you want me to do? I'm not obliged to love you But you said our names were written in the book of the lord And all the visions that you had were true Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks! Throwing rocks! [SOLO] Baby calm down, what do you want me to do? I'm not obliged to love you But you said our names were written in the book of the lord And all the visions that you had were true Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks at my window Throwing rocks at my window

My goal is to live To get my kicks on my day to day I got tired of no living Serving a boss on a day by day The whole world tends to put us, tends to put us down I was a lonely boy been pushed around, but now... Nobody can put me down! Get up and make it different Build the bridge to the brighter day I say... Keep living! Rise your nose & rock your day The whole world tends to put us, tends to put us down I was a lonely boy been pushed around, but now... Nobody can put me down! I was a lonely boy been pushed around But now... Nobody can put me down! I was a lonely boy been pushed around C'mon children! Nobody can put me down! The whole world tends to put us, tends to put us down I was a lonely boy been pushed around, but now... Nobody can put me down! I was a lonely boy being pushed around But now... Nobody can put me down! I was a lonely boy being pushed around C'mon children! Nobody can... Nobody can put me down!

Those Days 05:45
I used to feel like a stitching machine Stitching years through my life I used to feel like a dog on a leash Tied down in the same yard Open a bottle of whiskey or gin I drink it up, I don’t stop until's done I roll myself a big fat joint I light it up then I hold in my lungs And shout it Those days are gone and I feel so glad Those days are gone and I feel so fine Big inner fights against myself to hell I used to see the worst side of the night 'cause the sun just refused to shine I used to walk on a really thin line But I've made that, that far Open a bottle of whiskey or gin I drink it up, I don’t stop until's done I light myself a big fat joint I light it up and then I hold in my lungs And shout it Those days are gone and I feel so glad Those days are gone and I feel so fine Those days are gone and I feel so glad Big inner fights against myself to hell [INSTRUMENTAL] Those days are long & long gone And I feel so good, so good, so good now
