don't you wanna end up with this mister?
he is just being nice with his kisses and he
thinks you're not one of the smart ones
(say it, s-say it!)
doesn't seem like you want that kind of honey, honey
 
an isle, a bright shining isle
stands forever, alone in the sea
of rock and of sand and grass
and shale, the isle bereft of trees

small. a speck in the wide blue sea
'tis the last of all the land
a dweller upon our lonesome isle
the last, lonely man?

by the gods he is there to never leave
to remain all his life
his punishment for evermore
to attend the eternal light

the lighthouse, tall and brilliant white
which stands at the end of the world
protecting ships and sailors too
from rock they could be hurled

yet nothing comes and nothing goes
'cept the bright blue sea
which stretches near and far away
'tis all our man can see

though, one day, up high on rock
a bird did perch and cry
an albatross, he shot a glance
and wondered deeply, why?

could it be a watcher sent?
a curse sent from the gods
who sits and cries and stares at him
the life that they have robbed

each year it comes to watch over him
the creature from above
not a curse but a reminder of
the woman that he loved

oh weary night, under stars
he'd lay and gaze
up towards the moon and stars
the suns dying haze

time and again, Orion's light
filled our man with joy
within the belt, he'd see his love
remembering her voice

the twinkle from the stars above
bled peace into his heart
as long as she looks down on him
he knows they'll never part

one day good, one day bad
the madness, the heat, the sun
out to sea, he spies upon land
his beloved Albion

cliffs of white and trees of green
children run and play
"my home land" he cries and weeps
why so far away?

eyes sore and red. filled with tears
he runs towards the sea
to risk his life, a worthy cause
for home he would be

into the sea, deep and blue
the waters wash him clean
awake. he screams. cold with sweat
and Albion a dream

such is life upon the isle
of torment and woe
one day good. one day bad
and some days, even hope

the light at the end of the world
burns bright for mile and mile
yet tends the man, its golden glow
in misery all the while?

for fifty years he stands and waits
atop the light, alone
looking down upon his isle
the gods have made his home

the watcher at the end of the world
through misery does defile
remembers back to that single night
and allows a tiny smile

his sacrifice was not so great
he insists upon the world
again he would crime, again he would pay
for one moment with the girl

her hair, long and black it shone
the dark, beauty of her eyes
olive skin and warm embrace
her memory never dies

'twas years ago, he remembers clear
the life they once did live
endless love and lust for life
they promised each would give

alas, such love and laughter too
was short as panting breath
for one dark night, her soul was kissed
by the shade of death

agony, like none before
was suffered by our man
who tends the light now, burning bright
on the very last of land

anger raged and misery too
like nothing ever before
he cursed the gods and man and life
and at his heart he tore

a deity felt sympathy
and threw our man a light
"your woman you may see again
for a single night

but think hard and well young man
there is a price to pay
to tend the light at the end of the world
is where you must stay

away from man and life and love
alone you will be
on a tiny isle. a bright shining isle
in the middle of the sea"

"i'll tend the light, for one more night
with the woman whom i love"
screamed the man, with tearful eyes
to the deity above

and so it was that very night
his lover did return
to his arms and to their bed
together they did turn

in deepest love and lust and passion
entwined they did fall
lost within each other's arms
they danced in lover's ball

long was the night filled with love
for them the world was done
awoke he did to brightest light
his woman and life had gone

to his feet he leapt. to the sea he looked
to the lighthouse on the stone
the price is paid and from now on
he lives forever alone

fifty years have passed since then
and not a soul has he seen
but his woman lives with him still
in every single dream

'tis sad to hear how young love has died
to know that, alone, someone has cried
but memories are ours to keep
to live them again, in our sleep
 
burning on just like a match
you strike to incinerate
the lives of everyone you knew
and what's the worst you take
from every heart you break?
and like the blade you stain
i've been holding on tonight
 
you live for times of solace
within a sign there's a promise
don't lose all faith cause you shake at night
it's in the art of the process
 
We-
organic images
dissolving earth

Our future children
sure at us unfixed
from a residence of stars
in their sidereal ships
ho sailing beyond within

Their eyes
black in kingdoms of gold
like the rocks of this desert
where we wander in circles
tails up the ass of time

And our vision
goes backwards
the traces we see
after something
ot even existing
beyond the prints

All dreams end here
where our cries began
resounding to museums
of a world we believed
neverending

And we stop
exhausted
beginning
not again

And the panic
like the light
of some star
exploding

Flashing in black holes of not knowing
if we ever made a away out of this mud

Wenn getanzt wird will ich führen
Auch wenn ihr euch alleine dreht
Lasst euch ein wenig kontrollieren
Ich zeige euch wie's richtig geht

Wir bilden einen lieben Reigen
Die Freiheit spielt auf allen Geigen
Musik kommt aus dem Weißen Haus
Und vor Paris steht Mickey Mouse

We're all living in Amerika
Amerika ist wunderbar
We're all living in Amerika

Ich kenne Schritte die sehr nützen
Und werde euch vor Fehltritt schützen
Und wer nicht tanzen will am Schluss
Weiss noch nicht dass er tanzen muss

Wir bilden einen lieben Reigen
Ich werde euch die Richtung zeigen
Nach Afrika kommt Santa Claus
Und vor Paris steht Mickey Mouse

We're all living in Amerika

This is not a love song
This is not a love song
I don't sing my mother tongue
No, this is not a love song

We're all living in Amerika

We're all living in Amerika

We're all living in Amerika

Sometimes war
We're all living in Amerika

waiting by the stairs - waiting by the stairs
waiting i despair - waiting i despair

our whole life is a dark room.
one. big. dark. room

somehow i ended up here in the inbetween
where there is always the comfort of knowing i'll never be seen
when i fall
when i fall
i wait for just one touch
and i fall
 
Look, if you had one shot, one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted…One moment
Would you capture it or just let it slip?

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud
He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out
He's chokin, how everybody's jokin now
The clock's run out, time's up over, bloah!
Snap back to reality, Oh there goes gravity
Oh, there goes Rabbit, he choked
He's so mad, but he won't give up that easy
Is he? No
He won't have it , he knows his whole back city's ropes
It don't matter, he's dope
He knows that, but he's broke
He's so stacked that he knows
When he goes back to his mobile home, that's when it's
Back to the lab again yo
This whole rap shit
He better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him

You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo
The soul's escaping, through this hole that it's gaping
This world is mine for the taking
Make me king, as we move toward a, new world order
A normal life is borin, but superstardom's close to post mortar
It only grows harder, only grows hotter
He blows its all over, these hoes is all on him
Coast to coast shows, he's know as the globetrotter
Lonely roads, God only knows
He's grown farther from home, he's no father
He goes home and barely knows his own daughter
But hold your nose cuz here goes the cold water
These ho's don't want him no mo, he's cold product
They moved on to the next schmoe who flows
He nose dove and sold nada
So the soap opera is told and unfolds
I suppose it's old potna, but the beat goes on
Da da dum da dum da da

No more games, I'ma change what you call rage
Tear this mothafuckin roof off like 2 dogs caged
I was playin in the beginnin, the mood all changed
I been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage
But I kept rhymin and stepwritin the next cypher
Best believe somebody's payin the pied piper
All the pain inside amplified by the fact
That I can't get by with my 9 to 5
And I can't provide the right type of life for my family
Cuz man, these goddam food stamps don't buy diapers
And it's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life
And these times are so hard and it's getting even harder
Tryin to feed and water my seed, plus
Teeter totter, caught up between bein a father and a prima donna
Baby mama drama's screamin on and
Too much for me to wanna
Stay in one spot, another day of monotomy
Has gotten me to the point, I'm like a snail
I've got to formulate a plot fore I end up in jail or shot
Success is my only mothafuckin option, failure's not
Mom, I love you, but this trailer has got to go
I cannot grow old in Salem's lot
So here I go is my shot.
Feet fail me not cuz maybe the only opportunity that I got

You can do anything you set your mind to
