Moviestar

You feel like Steve McQueen when you're driving in your car
and you think you look like James Bond when you're smoking your cigar
it's so bizarre you think you are a new kind of James Dean
but the only thing I've ever seen of you was a commercial spot on the screen

Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a movie
Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a Movie – Star, ahahar

You should belong to the jet set fly your own private lear jet
but you worked in a grocery store every day until you could afford to get away
so you went to Sweden to meet Ingmar Bergman he wasn't there or he just didn't care
I think it's time for you, my friend to stop pretending that you are a
Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a movie
Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a Movie – Star, ahahar

The frozen hero! Your words are zero
when your dreams had vanished into dark along the go that you don't want to know

Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a movie
Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a Movie – Star, ahahar

Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a movie
Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a Movie – Star, ahahar

Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a movie
Movie Star, Movie Star, ahahar you think you are a Movie – Star, ahahar
you think you are a Movie – Star, ahahar
you think you are a Movie – Star, ahahar
you think you are a Movie – Star, ahahar

Horoscope

Maybe that I am blind maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind maybe that I am blind
Maybe that I am blind maybe that I won't find
The signs within my mind maybe that I am blind
We'll hope my heart is burning that's so good I will be learning
The Secrets how to live to take and to give. Temptation's and desire
my world is like a fire In magic circles the earth is slowly turning

I'm looking
I'm searching
I read my horoscope
I'm looking
I'm searching
I read my horoscope

Maybe that I am blind - Maybe that I won't find -
The signs within my mind
There ain't no communication but I'm trying to make it
There's a world of gloss and I'm trying to break it
With my tiny little hands I'm building castles in the sand
I'm only one of the Lost generation

I'm looking
I'm searching ...

Maybe that I am blind maybe that I won't find ...

I don't know why or if I'm going for But I look to the sky and I follow my star
I'm looking at the space through my kaleidoscope And ev'ry day I read my horoscope

I´m looking
I´m searching

Honeymonn

Honeymoon moon honey
honeymoon moon honey honey

Love love is strange
And you can't hide away
From the love love you feel
When you want it to stay

Honeymoon ...

Sing sing sing
When I give you this ring
Kiss kiss kiss
And remember this
Love is something in the air
Love is flying everywhere
Lay lay lay
Down by my side
Be be be
Stay in bed as my bride

Honeymoon ...

I love you you love I Love you you love
Love love is strange
And you can't hide away
From the love love you feel
When you want it to stay

Honeymoon ...

And the king and the queen
Dissapeared from the scene into a honeymoon ...

Rockn Roll Clown

There`s a circus in town
and in the spotlight tonight
I`m gonna fall to the ground.
without a sound
like a bird in a cage;
you`ll remember my face,
a sad eyed, sad eyed
rock`n roll clown;
so strike up the band
for this tiny man.

Here I am a rock`n roll clowm,
oh look at me my friends.
Hi-ha-ha-hi-ha-ha.
Here I am a rock`n roll clown
and here we go again.
Hi-ha-ha-hi-ha-ha.

I can play my guitar
like a su-su-superstar.
Without any strings
like all the riff-if-if kings.
I have a fan magazine
in ma washing machine
and my heart never breaks
`cause my nose is a fake.
Oh in the spotlight tonight
I`m gonna fly like a kite.

Here I am ...

Black and white isn`t always right.
There`s always something between the lines
at the end of scene.
The stage can be such a lonely place
when your all be your own.
To be or not to be,
that`s the question.

What`s the name of the game?
Am I climbing to fame
or is this just a joke?
With a joker who`s broke
when the curtain is down
and the circus leaves town.
There is no on around
to see the sad eyed clown.
But strike up the band
for this tiny man.

Here I am ...

Motorcycle Mama

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go
Motorcycle Mama I've been looking everywhere for you

I remember in '65 when Jimi Hendrix was still alive
Before we went to the Woodstock scene
and turn on to the rock-machine
We rode a red Harley Davidson as we tried to follow the sun

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go
Motorcycle Mama I've been looking everywhere for you

I remember in '67 we were into the flower-power heaven
Riding up the silvery coast highway riding up in the Frisco bay
Like Ravi Shanker I played his sitar and Maharishi Yogi was my Guru Star

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go
Motorcycle Mama I've been looking everywhere for you

Do you remember about Fritz the Cat
and Dylan's Leopard-Skin Pill-box hat
Sergant Peppers Lonely Heart Club Band,
he is a rider through the desert sand
Listen all this makes me blue,
but most of all you know I'm missing you.

Motorcycle Mama why did you leave and where did you go
Motorcycle Mama I've been looking everywhere for you
Where did you go? Why did you leave?

In the Zumzumzummernight

As your mama and papa may say
hey girl, won`t you stay at home today;
we don`t know what you are doin`,
we don`t know where you are goin`,
but they should know that you are growin`;

In the zum-zum-zummernight
In the zum-zum-zummernight
In the zum-zum-zummernight
Ev`rything`s alright.

I`m gonna play on my romantic guitar,
as we lie under the twinkling stars;
let`s have a rendezvous,
just me and you;

In the zum-zum-zummernight
In the zum-zum-zummernight
In the zum-zum-zummernight
Ev`rything`s alright.

The only one watchin` us is the moon in the sky;
come on girl, you just got to try,
forget about the winter, forget about the cold;
when summer is here and there is someone to hold;

Like the Beatles in " Strawberry Fields"
we`re gonna harvest our thoughts of love
forever and ever
the stars and we`ll be together;

In the zum-zum-zummernight
In the zum-zum-zummernight
In the zum-zum-zummernight
Ev`rything`s alright.

I believe

I believe birds are born to be free
That a child shuold have the right to be a child
I believe we should plan it and let it grow
I believe no matter what colour you've got ore where you are born
That each living soul is equal and should have the right to live a Life
With dignity, love and a future for each and every one
Even for you and me

I do, I do believe
For each and every one
I do, I do believe

They tell me I'm bad
And they tell me it's sad
But nothing it's gonna change even in a thousend years
And they tell me that I'm blind that I can't see behind the tears
And they tell me to let it be, let it be
And they tell me that evil is gonna win
And they tell me that a lie is not a sin
And they tell me, and tell me, and tell me I'm wrong
But no one can keep me from singing my song

I do, I do believe
I believe that thunder and storm will pass away
I believe in sunrise and a new day
I believe the winds, the winds are going to change
I believe good things are going to win
I believe that a lie is a sin
But I don't believe in a god from a sky
We must find the spirit within a protect it in our hearts
And never let it die

I do, I do believe
I believe some day soon, we don't have to say it to the moon
If we take each other's hand, trying to understand
There is nothing between us except our own fear
There are fruits enough on this earth that we all can share
That we all can share

I do, I do believe
I believe birds are born to be free
I do, I do believe

I believe we should plan it and let it grow
That a child should have the right to be a child
And they tell me, and tell me, and tell me I'm wrong
But no one can keep me from singing my song
I do, I do believe

Sekret Silver Box

In my secret silver box
Secret silver box
I keep the the things I love

The smell of the flowers in the garden
The bizzy from the bumble bee
I play the cards on the floor
See the wheels turn once more
Butterflies and sunshine
Rainbow cross the river
Purple dreams and silence
Silence in the morning
Music of the heartbeat
Heartbeat of my love
Sleeping next to me

In my secret silver box
Secret silver box
I keep the the things I love

The girl with eyes of orange juice
Sing her half way to the moon blues
Play the cards on the floor
See the wheels turn once more
While the summerfields are dancing
Dancing in the summer
Winternight is falling
Falling in the winter
The music of the heartbeat…
There's no shadow in the night
Only things that I hold tight
There are no words filled with hate
No war just peace and faith
Butterflies…

Chelsea Lady

Hey hey, hey-hey Chelsea Lady
Hey hey, hey-hey Chelsea Lady

Can't you hear me singing'
On my streetsymphony
And can't you hear them ringing
All my string-band melodies
I see you there
A flower-lady
Right across the street
When I pick up my hat and leave
It's you I'd like to meet
That's why you hear me singing'

Hey hey, hey-hey Chelsea Lady
Hey hey, hey-hey Chelsea Lady

I wonder who's gonna hold you
When your working day is through
'Cause if you don't have nobody
I'd sure like to be with you
I see you there
A flower lady
I came a long, long way
When I pick up my hat tonight
I'll buy your last bouquet
Then you will hear me singing'

Hey hey, hey-hey Chelsea Lady
Hey hey, hey-hey Chelsea Lady

Light a Candle

Won´t you ligt a candle
And let it shine to guide us through the darkness
Let that candle keep on burning
cross the stormy seas tonight

Won´t you light a candle
Sending hope `way across the ocean
A candle to remind us
Our tomorrow is on its way

We`re sailing on the stormy seas of destiny forever searching
Carried by the wind up on the rolling waves of time
So, please light the fire to show the way back home
How we need that light, shining bright to steer us on our way

So won´t you light a candle
Sending hope way across the ocean
A candle to remind us
Our tomorrow is on its way

We`re lost upon the swaying waves of yesterdays in starless darkness
Looking for a faraway horizon to shine through
So please light the fire to show the way back home
How we need that light, burning bright to steer us on our way

So, won´t you light a candle
And let it shine to guide us through the darkness
Let that candle keep on burning
Cross the stormy seas tonight

Won´t you light a candle
Sending hope `way across the ocean
A candle to remind us
Our tomorrow is on its way

Won´t you light a candle
Our tomorrow is on its way

The End of Time

The summer evening moonbeam shines
Upon the silent earth
Where a mother just gave birth
To a child
The music from this heart
When he opens up his eyes
Lookin' in surprise
At the life
That's gonna start

Is this the end
The end of time

The little boy is playing
With a rainbow in his hand
In a far away land
That we will never understand

Is this the end
The end of time
Take care take care take care
take care of the children
Take care of their dreams

I'm afraid I'm afraid they will lose them
And his happy face won't cry a tear
Until the grass is gone
The rainbow disappears
When the day is done

Is this the end
The end of time
Take care take care take care
take care of the children
Take care of their dreams

When the colours seem to fade
There are no angels on parade
Saying thank you for what you've paid
And all the times that you have prayed

Is this the end
The end of time ...

Jessica

When I wald down boulevard Saint Michel
I still feel those lips that kissed me farewell
In a bohemian room at Monte Martre

We discussed Picasso
Jean-Paul Sartre Cahmps-Elysèes in a street cafè
We smoked Gitanes
And drank red wine
Like in a book of Hemmingway

For ever and ever to stay Jessica love
I'm feeling so sad
'Cause the dreams that we had
In seventy-six
They are gone gone Jessica love ...

Smile

Smile even thought it's breakin'
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by
If you just smile throught your fear and sorrow

Smile an may be tomorrow
You'll seethe sun come shining throught for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Altbought a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on tryin'

Smile what's the use of cryin'
You'll find that life is still worth-while
If you just smile...
