1. Tiger T. – Death Happens To a Few
Here you go
Your bed’s still warm
You’re sneaking out the dorm
In the rain
Streets
You should not roam
But now that you’ve begun
Never stop again
Tiger T –
Death happens to a few
But not necessarily you
So keep on fighting
Here’s success
You had it all
Torn down is the wall
In the wind
Streams
They carry you
Faster than you ever knew
And never find an end
Ref.: Tiger T…
(Where do you want to go today…)

02. You Got The Song From Rotten Syd
You got the song from rotten Syd
You try to stop it but you can’t quit
You got the song from rotten Syd
He had this plan that he won‘t grow up
But grow out
Divine
Small -
I‘m small as an elf
Still -
Taller than all
And than myself
Live -
To live’s to be seen
Drift –
On everyone‘s mindscreen
I’m moving in
Up on your shelf
Topsy - (I tried on three pairs of pants)
Topsy and turvy (Each had a different size)
Groovy - (They all fit perfectly well)
Groovy and pervy (What a surprise!)
That’s what I be
Freedom, Freedom‘s a feeling
Feeling, Feeling’s an art
Everybody’s a star
A start minus t!

03. Let’s Eat the Weed
Brown stuff
Cream puff
Sweet love
Dandruff
Nobody knows how double I’ve seen
Nobody’s nose smells cheeses
Nobody knows how double I’ve seen
I put the broom in my mind machine
Let’s eat the weed
Let’s eat the weed
(If I was your river)
Let’s eat the weed
Meat gets to bleed
(ranting intermezzo:)
My body is a temple where the merchants roam
They get into their little cars and then drive home
They make a little dinner that is made of me
That is what they call “lif’s inner quality”
Ring! Goes the doorbell
In comes the cheese smell
Where from they can’t tell
Then they go to pig hell
Up the belly of the beast they try to reach
So they grab the weed that we eat to teach

04. The Smile’s Gone
Wanting was so much better than having
And looking was so much better than being
The pairing suggests a possible copying
Yet I hesitate to make the scene
We’re still having fun, but the smile’s gone
We’re still having fun, but the smile’s gone
It always feels like we’ve just begun
We’re still having fun, but the smile’s gone
Eggs of all colours I find on my bed stand
One to confuse and one to contain
What’s left inside me I gladly submitted
To the European Journal of Pain

5. Nude Spots
I went down to the nude spots
Just wanted to see you whole
You in all your bodily functions
You in your heart and soul
Cause I thought
There must be more than what I was born to
So I broke
Out of this shell that kept me from you
Have you come
To Taj my Mahal?
I am scared! (Can you cancel my independence?) (3x)
You came down to my nude spots
We had delivered from so much shame
Turned them into the pefect garden
Turned them into perfect game
So we thought
We have the grace to sit on the top shelves
Since we’re good
It’s not a sin to make a sale of ourselves
Have you come
To Taj my Mahal?
I am scared! (Can you cancel my independence?) (3x)

6. O Sing It Orange to Her
The light that
Shines when you go astray
Is a wave that
Washes old times away
And colour
Is a wave that
Collapses
In your eyes
Ref.
O sing it orange to her
O she’ll hear blue
The sound
When you trip by mistake
Is a wave
That’s set off by the quake
Of the young ones
Whose love vibes
Can never
Be lies

7. I Had 1680 Wives
I had 1680 wives
In my past 2000 lives
I am a city in time
And love is my dollar and dime
I had 107 million dreams
Every one came true it seems
The eesert turned green in my eyes
But along with the cattle came flies
I have been father, son, and brother
The one always the death of the other
Ages and eras I’ve seen
Ask the wives for the in-between
Ref.
He seemed so handsome, young, and clever
We didn’t know he’d last forever
He seemed so handsome, young, and clever
And now we’re all in this together
I had 1680 wives
And several financial dives
Millions of skins I have shed
Enough to lay the planet to bed
Sugar and spice I did mix
Created the world just for kicks
All my desires shall ever be soothed
And if I’m well the world’s approved
I’ve been the mountain, the valley, the sea
For the ant, the spider, and the bee
Time is my light, space is my screen
Ask the wives for the between

8. No – So Easy Declared
No – so easy declared
But nobody noticed
Nobody knows
And nobody cared
He - said we would be lovers
He - said love is free
Let‘s – have freedom together
And that love would rule all over the world
He – said „war is over“
He – said „count me out“
Let us just not go there
And that peace would rule all over the world
I - said „Let’s be lovers“
I - said „Let’s be free“
I want peace like all the others
But can you do the dishes before you leave?

09. Neverending Love Chant Tour Dud
He wasn’t more Californian than a cauliflower
But he come to Frisco at its finest hour
Neverending Love Chant Tour Dud
Neverending Love Chant Tour Dud
Neverending Love Chant Tour Dud
Neverending Love Chant Tour Dud, ride on!
He’d been on the road, around and everywhere
Now he was tossing a hammer round the air
He wanted to go further, but couldn’t get any more west
So he took the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test
Everyone got on the bus, him at the wheel so cool
They all went into a panic, but panic was his fuel

10. Rave On Meaty Orchids (New!)
Heaven was into my record
Radio at: “Never chew my son”
Everyman scored a hit now?
Everyone charmed it was on?
Drew once in a heavy storm
Stare down, move yer chain
Why, an over-reaction, meds
Went O.D. over a cryin’ shame
Rave on, meaty orchids, rave on…
Her “Yo, Amen!” was contrived
Whenever Cain’s at my door
Modern owners have a city
Him ever own a candystore?
And V. meets a worryin’ echo
O, ye snowman drive the car?
A chemist warned: “Very Ono!”
Cheney, drown a movie star!

11. Just Chirp On, Ego
Parties
Social Innings
No ends
No beginnings
Glasses
Never empty of wine
Music
Lively chatter
Mind states
Never matter
Voices
Silky fabrics
Shining and entwined
Just chirp on, Ego
You’re higher than me, go
And fly up the mountain
And wait like Noah in his ark
Just chirp on, Ego
I’ll wait here and listen
For your echo
Right here in the dark
