2. Will This Ever End?
Daddy take me home
If you could see me now
I´m afraid and alone
I don´t know how to get out
Daddy, if you just hear me
Come and take me home
I know you still care
You´re my only hope
chorus:
I look like I´d be seven
But I´m ten years old
I hope you remember me
Your son who you sold
Well dressed gentlemen
Came and took me away
It´s four years since that
Will this ever end?
They show me to the strangers
Who do to me some dirty things
If I don´t do what they want
They beat the shit out of me
I never got a chance
To be a normal child
My childhood was sold
To guarantee my parents´ life
chorus
........NO!
3. Crack Children
Crack children - lost generation
Born of new breed
Mental subnormality - mutation
Born to be
Discriminated - despised scum
Who´s guilty - addicted mom
chorus:
Born to be - good for nothing
Born to be alone
Shocked into this foul world
Full of indifference
But the child won´t ever realize
That he is different
´cos daily mother suck life out
From her unborn child
Baby floated in poison fluid
Which corroded his undeveloped mind
chorus
Crack children - lost generation
Mother,
You denied your child´s human rights
You denied your child´s human rights
Mother, your child´s born to be
Discriminated - despised scum
Who´s guilty - addicted mom
Mother,
You denied your child´s human rights
You denied your child´s human rights
Mother, your child´s born to be
Crack children - lost generation
Crack children - lost generation
4. Sniff
Sniiff...
Aaaaah...
Feels so...
...So good
Red and yellow balls are teasing me
My bed is rolling
Walls are moving towards me
Help me I am falling
I can see a rainbow - WHERE?
Everywhere
In the end of it there should
Be a great - TREASURE
But there´s only a.....
.....Terrible headache
Creeping all over my head
Braincells are striking back
For those who are dead
I sniffed only a little bit
That was still unwise
Awful slime smelled like shit
But it made me feel so nice
chorus:
Enslaving glue
Is taking you
Cell by cell
Into madmen´s hell
Terrible
Headache
Gimme some more I need some more
I feel like my head´s exploding
Just a little breath from this brain death
Which I am sniffing
Now the headache is gone
I am flying again all alone
I won´t come down no more
I wanna keep on smiling on and on...
Flying, diving, smiling, having fun
Crying, dying, fighting, losing my mind
Flying, diving, smiling, having fun
Crying, dying, fighting, losing my mind
chorus
5. Barbarella
Come to daddy...
Finally I found myself a woman
I spyed my father at night
I found her in my dad´s wardrobe
Her skin: as smooth as silk, thin & plastic
It doesn´t bother me that
She used to belong to my father
It´s OK, I´m not a virgin either
But I can´t squeeze her tight
She´d run out of air, yes she might
My lungs are too weak to fill her again
I hope she doesn´t love strong men
chorus:
She has a pretty name: Barbarella
Printed on her sole: Barbarella
She has a serial number down there
She´s special, that´s all I care
Barbarella
It´s difficult to find out
Wishes of my date
It´s quite hard for her
To communicate
Someone has drawn years ago
Big red flowers on her skin
That´s how I know for sure
She was not a virgin
chorus
Night time I wet her with my sweat
Plastic rubs one´s human flesh
But I´m quite sure that she loves my games
She keeps her mouth shut
When I take her both ways
chorus
6. Offender
Hey scumbag, you are arrested
I´m not gonna tell you your rights
´cos you have no rights
You better say nothing
´cos we would use it against you
No matter if you´re guilty or not,
We need an offender
I´m innocent, I didn´t do it
I can tell you nothing about it
I wasn´t there, I was elsewhere
How could I tell you what happened there
I can´t help you if you don´t believe me
Just ´cause there´s nothing that proves it
You rather claim that I´m guilty
Than admit your own stupidity
You think that you are tough
When you point a spotlight at my eyes
And say you´ll beat me
If I keep on telling lies
That doesn´t scare me, I somehow trust in justice
But then I wonder if you know anything about it
Your evidence is awkward fake
All your witnesses are paid
Now I realize that my role
In this play is to hang by the rope
I´m guilty until I´m proven
Innocent in a court of a law
That´s your twisted logic
Which doesn´t make sense at all...
You think that you are tough
When you point a spotlight at my eyes
And say you´ll beat me
If I keep on telling lies
That doesn´t scare me, I somehow trust in justice
But then I wonder if you know anything about it
I´m innocent I didn´t do it
I just don´t know how to prove it
I know that you believe me
I´m here only ´cause you need me
.......as an OFFENDER!
7. That Makes Me Sick
Senseless human error
Streets are full of terror
And then some live in the fear of God
Little kids really stoned
All the violence at homes
No answer when I´m on the phone
Out of money, out of gas
"Nice day!", stick it up your ass
Meanless future, meanless past
Kicked in the head
Worry of my daily bread
Vivisection with my missing pet
THAT MAKES ME SICK
Newspapers full of crap
Waiting for drunken dad
Join the weightwatcher - You´re too fat
No listeners when I need one
Self respect totally gone
What have I done
Do I have to drink my tears
´cos I´m running out of beers
Then someone says "Cheers!" to me
Fucking Rock Star attitude
Increasing price of food
Yeah, sounds really good
THAT MAKES ME SICK
8. Too Greedy
Selfish benefits - were things I served
I knew I´d get - what I deserve
I rustled up - honour and fame
People pushed me to be ashamed
I neglected - my friends and dear ones
Irreparable losses - were my bonds
Distending greed - had taken place
Unbearable sorrow I was to face
I was aware of all that
I thought I was too busy to be sad
I was aware of all that
I thought I was too busy to be sad
Now there´s no time
For repentance
No-one needs me
For romance
No children to be
Taken care of
I´m a timid old man
Withdrawn indoors
I have everything
Money can buy
Lack the most inevitable
Can´t deny
I can´t take this
Endless solitude
My overcharged life
Is too abused
chorus:
Too greedy
To hold on a minute
Too greedy
To hold on a minute
I´d sell my soul
To get more time
Unscrupulous past is
My only crime
I´m a humble meek
Whatever you desire
Just gimme courage to pass
Away with pride
chorus
9. From the Cradle to the Grave
They don´t like what I´m seeing
They don´t care how I feel
Soft white walls of this madhouse
That´s what my life´s about
They think it´s kind of an obsession
So the experiments just go on
I´m allright, not insane
Don´t shoot that dope up my vein
I opened my eyes
Visions started to crawl in my mind
I closed my eyes
Day of death turned into night
I opened my eyes
Darkness still didn´t disappear
There´s no light
I ripped out my own eyes
I wanted the fear to go away so much
Those bad visions were so weird
I saw strange things every day & night
I lived inside them, I lived in fear
With my hands I dug out my eyes
Fell onto my knees, began to cry
That was useless, they live in my mind
I still see them, even now that I´m blind
I cross my hands and pray
Oh God, release me from this pain
I can´t rip out my brain
But I can´t live this way
Selfmade brain surgeries
From LSD to PCP
Reality, too much for me
I see things no-one should see
Now I wither away
Slowly day by day
So much I´ve lost on my way
From the cradle to the Grave
...From the cradle to the Grave
...From the cradle to the Grave
...From the cradle to the Grave
...Just another living corpse...
10. Hop 2, 3, 4
Crawl in the mud
It´s sensible and fun
Fall in, dismiss
Yes Sir, sure I will
Hop 2, 3, 4
Crawl you dogs!
Crawl in the mud
It´s sensible and fun
Fall in, dismiss
Yes Sir, sure I will
Hop 2, 3, 4
11. Break the Ice
Break the ice...
Now it´s time to get things right
And time to break the ice
I´ve found things aren´t black and white
And afterall we´re all alike
You people who want to discriminate
What´s the reason for all that hate?
Hair, clothes or the colour of the skin
What matters is what one thinks
So take some time and break the ice
Or you´ll loose your senseless fight
Nobody does always do right
But this choice is worth a try
I don´t care about your ego-trips
Or if you´ve fallen down too deep
Don´t you think others are to blame
There´s no reason to discriminate
You have to take a look around
See, nobody´s gonna bring you down
So try once to be open-minded
It´s for real if you find it
[twice]
You people who want to discriminate
What´s the reason for all that hate?
Hair, clothes or the colour of the skin
What matters is what one thinks
Now it´s time to get things right
And time to break the ice
I´ve found things aren´t black and white
And afterall we´re all alike
Break the ice
12. Thursday the 12th
"It was one of those days when I
should not have woken up"
...Yeah, woken up
In who´s bed am I lying?
I see a bearded lady with a hairy knees
This can´t be true, too bad for me
Ugliest creature I´ve ever seen
Yeah, right - Going fine
I´ve made love to the cloone of divine
Gotta get out of here!
I forget to get dressed
Only a few thousand people
See me running naked
She-male beast is far away
At last I´m back at home
Today it´s thursday the 12th
What will happen tomorrow?
At home there´s another surprise for me
Burglers have been there and taken everything
They left only a one pair of jeans
Bad luck, they just don´t fit on me
Thursday the 12th
Suddenly someone knocks on the door
Who the hell could it be
Two policemen are standing there
I wonder if they would help me
Thursday the 12th
Bullshit, they are not very helpful
They just arrest me
Today it´s thursday the 12th
I´m not looking forward to friday
At least I get some clothes
But still I would rather go home
It´s illegal to run naked
That´s why I am arrested
Yeah, right - Going fine
On me the sun won´t shine
Which is worse
Friday the 13th or a thursday
With a curse?
Now the day is turning to its end
What a relief
Today it´s thursday the 12th
Tomorrow it´s friday the 13th
13. Lack of Sanity
Child stole a toy from a smaller one
Birthday present, plastic machine gun
Loser walked away, wiped tears from his eyes
Like mom asked, he didn´t start to fight
They grew up and their toys turned real
Winner joined the army & signed the deal
Died in the war, bullet between the eyes
Loser sat at home, but didn´t cry...
If you could read my mind
Then you might understand
Insanity of mankind, which
Is drifting through the sand...as blood
Embodiment of evil
The one who takes the gun
I don´t want to be that one
I´ll choose life on the run
Are these your idols,
world peace statues?
Endless lines
of tombstones
LACK OF SANITY
Go, fight and die
You are so brave
You´ll live on in our minds
And rot in your grave
LACK OF SANITY
Soldier, you´re just a toy
Brainwashed little child
Propaganda and lies
Have made you blind
Your real enemy
Ain´t on the other side
It´s behind your back
They sent you to die
LACK...LACK OF SANITY...
14. I Ain't the One
I - I - I - I ain´t the one!
I ain´t the one who´s gonna tell you
What´s wrong , what´s right
I ain´t the one who´s gonna show you
The real way of life
chorus:
ANYWAY IT´S THE SAME WHAT WE SAY
NO-ONE CARES SHIT ABOUT IT ANYWAY
I ain´t the one who´s gonna
Cure this world
I ain´t the one who teaches
and forces you to learn
chorus
I ain´t the one
I ain´t the one
Ain´t the one who´s gonna tell you
What you gotta do
I ain´t the one
[twice]
I ain´t the one who´s gonna tell you
What´s wrong , what´s right
I ain´t the one who´s gonna show you
The real way of life
chorus
