1. Don't Worry Friend
You are down again today
Fear is eating you away
Somebody wants to change your life
But you want to be yourself
To be yourself
Hey don't worry friend
Not only you are down
So keep smiling man
Life is not so bad
Show at last what you can do
What you can afford to
Oh don't be so, so afraid
This bloody, blasted world belongs to you
2. Upper Classes
They have many foes
But few real friends
Nobody builds
The palaces for them
And other funny people
From so called humble class
See in them only hyenas
Going for easy, easy prey
They want to be great
To have more & more
To buy the world & life
Always to grasp, to grasp
With the simple people
They refuse to agree
They like the banquets
They prefer to go there
And they have the puppets
Telling you all the time
Your star is shining
Only one more step to success
Some day they will wake-up
And suddenly will see
They are lonely
And there is nothing left
But funny simple people
From so called humble class
Will calmly go on living
Awaiting their greatest, greatest day
They want also to be great
To have more & more
To buy the world & the life
Always to dream, to dream
3. Stop
A frosty morning
The sirens howl
And you are in a sweat
You have got a number
So you should wear it
And you go out of doors
There is a roll call on the square
Just where you have to be
All people staying there
And they are standing in ranks
And they are standing in ranks
You are escaping
You make a step
Loud hailer blasting away
"Stop! Where you go?"
"Wake-up now, stop your dreams"
Look! At your life
Stop! Halt! Get back in line
Get off the streets
Only one step, out of line
You will be punished, sure
You will forget just who you are
And why you left home
Another day is drifting away
And you feel so tired
You want to rest at home
But crowds are cheering, "Hurrah!"
And when you try to go to sleep
Loud hailers blasting away
Get off the streets
4. Nothing Left To Say
Do not to disturb the silence, here we lie
Watching our cigarettes glow in darkness
Like our love burning out & dying
I reach out to touch you,
But you are as cold as ice
There is nothing left to say
There is nothing left to say
There is nothing left to give you!
Thinking of yesterday we were one
Coming together lost in smoke & dreams
Warm & safe, we travelled to the stars
But love died along the way
With the life of our unborn child!
Go now leave me with my thoughts & memories,
The ones before we tortured each other.
The ones before the tears & the smoke,
Choked our kisses & our dreams.
Leave me - go!
5. Your Conscience
You see nothing, you hear nothing
You don't follow your own self
And your conscience is sleeping
Doesn't know what's good or bad
You are convincing no one
But that's the way you are
You still keep hiding out
Why! Does it feel so good
What's the matter with you
Do you want to be alone?
Where is your conscience?
Wake up! - You have one
But now you agree with everyone
You keep nodding your head
Clapping your hands puppet like
Bowing head really low
You pretend it's so sweet
But it's bitter, no one sees
People come looking through you
Turning away - turning green
6. People Like Zombies
When everything seems to be lost,
Drowned in despair & all alone,
Please take me away from everyone,
Who will know what I was about?
When all my hopes are gone,
When I reap what I have tried to sow,
When I'm mad & can't take no more,
You will know what I was about.
Brains - rotting like corpses
Hearts - faded like tombstones
People - screaming like zombies
I don't want to be like them
When I have to reject all I adore,
I can't escape defeat anymore,
When I've taken enough kicks to the floor,
Something my enemies wanted,
Then for all of you,
Doors will open,
With a knife, not a key anymore,
Put it back, there must be a better way,
You will know what I was about.
Brains - rotting like corpses
Hearts - faded like tombstones
People - screaming like zombies
I don't want to be like them
No way man!
7. Black Sabbath
Sun is slowly going down,
People sink into a sleep,
Witches plotting something evil,
But the children don't know yet.
A black sabbath is announced,
Based on the wicked, sinfull words
But the children are opressed
By their slogans & their lies.
Kids are impish once again
So the toys are taken away
Witches are now filled with power
And inventing fairy tales
Crazy witches hollow eyed,
Tell the children "Stay at home!"
They stamp on all the sandcastles,
Even skipping is forbiden.
But the kids are not stupid,
They are crying, just a whimper
They are not afraid of witches,
And will stick together always.
You cannot cheat the children
All the witches are a tremble
So don't worry sometime later,
Witches' power will disappear.
