Rose In A Glass

Run while you can
You won’t be young again
Jump if you dare
Get up on over there

You get in your head and toss about
But what if instead you tried it out
Tip toe, quick right
Fall out of sight
Lay low, hang tight
Stay up all night

Make up your mind
It’s getting hard to find
Don’t think too much
You’re close enough to touch

You get in your head and toss about
But what if instead you tried it out
Tip toe, quick right
Fall out of sight
Lay low, hang tight
Stay up all night
Whip crack, burn bright
Wring out the light
Hold fast, take flight
Keep up a fight

UNSEEN

Red-hot cheapshot
It’s no use going out the back lot

You’ll never know what it’s like
To get robbed
Because you don’t have anything promising
You uninspired sod

Next time, call me daddy
Dead right, don’t be sorry
Stand by, I’ll be ready
You can’t hide, you got it coming

I’ll never know what it’s like
To run dry
Cos I walk the earth
With a heavy heart open wide

Now you’ve done it
Deadbeat wise guy
A bittersweet by and by

Next time, call me daddy
Dead right, don’t be sorry
Stand by, hope you’re ready
You can’t hide

Tell me what you want
This is what it sounds like
When you rip me off
This is not a love song

Tell me what you want
This is what it sounds like
When you rip me off
This is not a love song

Tell me what you want
This is what it sounds like
When you rip me off
This is not a love song

Tell me what you want
This is what it sounds like
When you rip me off
This is not a love song

Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want
Tell me what you want

Explain No More

Berlin Nights is a dark, seductive cabaret‑style song set in 1920s Berlin. It follows a world of smoky bars, chipped champagne glasses, tango doorways, whispered deals, and fleeting lovers. The city is portrayed as decadent, dangerous, and irresistibly alive — a place where people trade names, futures, and desires for a moment of warmth or thrill. The narrator moves through alleys, dance halls, and backrooms, witnessing secrets, betrayals, and the fragile glamour of a society dancing on the edge. When morning comes, everything dissolves into dust, only to be reborn again at dusk.

Lyrics (no instrumental notes)

[Title: Berlin Nights]  
[BPM: slow, swaying]  
[Mood: dark cabaret; sultry, dangerous]

[Intro]  
Under gaslight, the city exhales,  
Silk and cigarette ash on the rails.  
A gramophone coughs a crooked tune,  
We trade our sins beneath a jaundiced moon.

[Verse A]  
Velvet heels on cobblestone, a whisper and a laugh,  
Champagne in chipped crystal, a lover’s photograph.  
Eyes like contraband, smiles that bargain time,  
We barter warmth for danger, we sell the night in rhyme.

[Verse B]  
Tango in the doorway, a hand that never stays,  
Perfume like a secret, a ledger of malaise.  
The band plays minor keys for hearts that won’t confess,  
We learn the art of leaving, we practice tenderness.

[Pre‑Chorus]  
Smoke curls like a promise, fingers trace the glass,  
Names are cheap as tickets, futures come to pass.

[Chorus]  
Berlin nights, you wear your sins like lace,  
Spin me slow, then vanish without a trace.  
Berlin nights, the city hums and sighs,  
We drink the dark and dance beneath your lies.

[Bridge]  
Footsteps in the alley, a laugh that turns to hush,  
Reflections in the puddles, a shadow’s hurried crush.  
Promises like paper, folded, burned, and tossed,  
We keep the music playing while the rest is lost.

[Verse C]  
Ladies with lacquered secrets, men with trembling hands,  
A toast to ruined futures, to the houses built on sand.  
The mirror shows a stranger, the mirror shows a throne,  
We crown the night with longing, then wake up all alone.

[Verse D]  
Backroom whispers, velvet doors, a ledger and a key,  
Coins beneath the table buy a borrowed ecstasy.  
Silk slips from shoulders, laughter turns to steam,  
We trade our names for moments, we sell the sweetest dream.

[Chorus]  
Berlin nights, you wear your sins like lace,  
Spin me slow, then vanish without a trace.  
Berlin nights, the city hums and sighs,  
We drink the dark and dance beneath your lies.

[Reprise]  
Berlin nights, hold me close, then let me go,  
Berlin nights, we burn too bright to ever know.

[Coda]  
When morning claws the curtains, the laughter turns to dust,  
We fold our coats and memories, betrayals and our trust.  
But when the dusk returns again, we’ll find our old delight —  
To meet, to drink, to dance, to drown in Berlin nights.

Berlin Nights

TeenageFreeageChaos (Jugenddisco)

Was ne Zeit
geile Zeit
war früher
die kommt vielleicht
nie wieder
Ob allein
ob zu zweit
kopfüber
wir haben geträumt
im Fieber
Kein Tag war
unertragbar
Mit Musik in den Alltag rein
Ich war da 
auch wo Du warst
und zusammen konnten wir wirklich frei sein

Teenagefreeagechaos
verliebt im Jugendhaus
Die Musik war laut
Die Band erstickte in Applaus
Teenagefreeagechaos
Keiner blieb Zuhaus
beim Pogo umgehaun
beim Stagedive fiel ich auf Dich drauf

und das war schlau
unfassbar schlau
ich fiel genau 
in die Arme meiner Frau

Was ne Zeit
geile Zeit
war früher
und ein Highlight
die Frühblüher
immer Freizeit
und dann wieder
Viel Zeit für frisch verliebte
Jeder Tag war
wie ein Bad
im Gras 
am Sparmarkt 
unserem Skatepark
Unfassbar
als ich mal vergas
dass fast ein ein ganzes Jahr
vergangen war

Teenagefreeagechaos
verliebt im Jugendhaus
Die Musik war laut
Die Band erstickte in Applaus
Teenagefreeagechaos
Keiner blieb Zuhaus
beim Pogo umgehaun
beim Stagedive fiel ich auf Dich drauf
 
L7 
Lemonheads
Nirvana
Smashing Pumpkins
und wer noch da war
ein bisschen Weezer
und Peace mit R.E.M. 
Sonic Youth und etwas von Pearl Jam
My Bloody Valentine
Pavement und Alice in Chains
Dinosaur Junior
Pixies und GWAR
Janes Adiction und natürlich Blur
PJ Harvey und mit Radiohead am Klavier

und mit Dir
natürlich mit Dir
ahhahhahhah

Teenagefreeagechaos
verliebt im Jugendhaus
Die Musik war laut
Die Band erstickte in Applaus
Teenagefreeagechaos
Keiner blieb Zuhaus
beim Pogo umgehaun
beim Stagedive fiel ich auf Dich drauf

und das war schlau
unfassbar schlau
ich fiel genau 
in die Arme meiner Frau
in die Arme meiner Frau
