LES IMPREVUS MALENCONTREUX

Les imprévus malencontreux
Qui sèment le mal tout autour d’eux
Viennent bouleverser par leurs venus
Certains des jours et même plus
Sortent de l’ombre et des buissons
Nous jouent des tours à leurs façons
A faire des maux, pétrir nos cœurs
Partant de rires, on passe aux pleurs.

Les imprévus malencontreux
Nous font souffrir, font de leur mieux
Voudraient nous voir sur une image
Noyant nos yeux dans un naufrage
Passent à l’acte sans prévenir
Nous faisant mal, malin plaisir
Sans faire passer comme indolore
Ces coups de l’âme contre nos sorts 

Les imprévus malencontreux
Nous rongent,
Et à cause d’eux
On songe,
A ce pire, l’angoissant,
De se dire à nouveau c’est quand….

Les imprévus malencontreux
Faisant du mal tout autour d'eux
Viennent nous voir de temps en temps
Nous faire savoir tout simplement
Qu’ils peuvent d'une manière
Nous faire du mal, nous mettre en l’air
Et que seul’ment s’ils le souhaitent
Nous laisseront des jours en fêtes.

Les imprévus malencontreux
Nous rongent,
Et à cause d’eux
On songe,
A ce pire, l’angoissant,
De se dire à nouveau c'est quand….

Les imprévus malencontreux
Que cherchent-ils contre tous ceux
Qui veulent vivre tout simplement
De grands bonheurs qui durent au temps
Pensant à chaque fois que tout bien
Vivant nos jours et leurs lendemains
Jetant les doutes à tous les vents
Pour que l'amour reste bien grand.

THE UNFORTUNATE EXPECTATIONS

Unforeseen events
Who sow evil all around them
Come to upset by their arrivals
Some days and even more
Come out of the shadows and the bushes
Playing tricks on us in their own ways
To cause pain, to knead our hearts
Starting with laughter, we move on to tears.

Unforeseen events
Make us suffer, do their best
Would like to see us in a picture
Drowning our eyes in a shipwreck
Take action without warning
Making us hurt, evil pleasure
Without passing it off as painless
These blows of the soul against our spells

Unforeseen events
are gnawing at us,
And because of them
We think,
At this worst, the distressing,
To say to yourself again when….

Unforeseen events
Doing harm all around them
Come see us from time to time
Just let us know
That they can in a way
Hurt us, put us in the air
And only if they wish
Will leave us days of celebration.

Unforeseen events
are gnawing at us,
And because of them
We think,
At this worst, the distressing,
To say again when is it….

Unforeseen events
What do they seek against all those
Who want to live simply
Great happiness that lasts over time
Thinking every time that everything is good
Living our days and their tomorrows
Throwing doubts to all the winds
So that love remains great.

LES IMPREVUS MALENCONTREUX

Inspired by a hike to the Pico Ruivo on the portuguese Island of Madeira with my son David.  When it is cloudy at the sea level and you pass the low level clouds on the way up to the summit then you feel like heaven's gate is opening and you look the from the mountain tops down to the sea of clouds. The spirit of the olympic gods seems so close (except that Greece is not just around the corner ;) ).

Sea of Clouds

The fourth song of our summer series "We Can Solve Most Things If We Talk" is a hymn to Hope.  It is the enduring attribute of mankind to be able to think beyond the most painful circumstances and imagine a better life and a better world.  Peter is not just a fine writer of melody and lyrics, but a very able and eloquent guitarist and vocalist.  Oddrun graces this song with her angelic voice as if she were Hope itself, and in duet they give the song wings.  Seagull's synths, bass, and mix are ever sure and seamless, a true labor of love.

Will you Raise Your Right Hand?

Peter
Can you number the circle’s rim, each point on a list?
Enumerate the air, simply cupping of your hands
Freedom lantern’s falling dim in honesty’s fading mist
But will you raise your right hand, when hope makes its stand?

Oddrun
Can you census the clouds, in a ledger of the sky
Set out in a single line each and every grain of sand
When the despot weaves his thieving lies will you stand idly by
Or will you raise your right hand, when hope makes its stand?

Peter & Oddrun
Can you audit every atom, in a volume for the shelf
Each uniquely named, indexed on demand
Does the mirror only fathom, a shallow of your self
Or will you raise your right hand, when hope makes its stand?

Oddrun & Peter
Can you detail every shimmered light on a canvas of the stars
A snapshot of the cosmos as at light speed it expands
Will you document but passive shame in the volumes of your pale memoirs
Or will you raise your right hand, when hope makes its stand?

Oddrun & Peter
Can you hoist the flag of humankind above the crass material world
Crush the armies of greed, their legions to disband
When the shining banner of grace is finally unfurled
Did you raise your right hand, when hope made its stand?

Hopeful Man--Will You Raise Your Right Hand (Peter, Oddrun, and Seagull)

after school
runaways
was just the two of us
babe

leave our homes
leave our friends
see where the highway
ends

flying
trying

you never come around now

ever gone
here to stay
you live inside of me
Maeve

in my dream’s
shadow play
until tomorrow comes
stay

crying
trying

you never come around now

until tomorrow comes
stay

I just can't sleep. Sleep thief, why are you picking on me?
From the album "Röckers" (2024)

Lyrics:
I've tried sleeping pills
And chamomile tea
The woman on the screen 
She's whispering at me
Sometimes, she would crinkle a bag
And make a sound all soft to my ear
Reminds me of like, being back in the womb
Sleep thief
Why have you done me wrong?

Sleep thief
Why are you picking on me?
No sleep. It's affecting my concentration
My conversations
I go off onto a tangent
Those hamsters in my head
They're running on the wheel
Like they're abandoned
Sleep thief

I've been cherry-picking slogans from Chairman Mao
I've been slinking around
The electric underground
I keep my demeanor flat
I keep my emotional needs at bay
I've been holding in 
Emotions too deep
For too long
Sleep thief

The lack of sleep it leaves me on the edge
I'm full of kykeon
And a spiritual  blockage
My escalation of terror
Can Hunter S Thompson still be my pallbearer?
(No! Because he's dead)
Sleep thief
Why are you picking on me?

Sleep Thief

A little ditty partly inspired by the events of this past summer here in the UK but mostly just about polarised society, the constant stream of misinformation we're all bombarded with and the state of permanent anger that everyone seems to live in these days.

Verse 1

So this is modern life.
Sitting on a train, staring at a screen,
Getting really angry, listen to a stranger, tell you about something that they haven't even seen.

So this is modern life.
Head up in the cloud, don't believe a thing,
You're probably being lied to, by that angry stranger,
Motivation's murky making money from your dreams.

Well this ain't the future I remember being sold...
I must be getting old.

Chorus

Buy, subscribe, listen, watch,
Worry, panic, sleepless, lost,
Clicks, likes, follows, the game,
Lonely, withdrawn, quiet, pain.

Eat, sleep, stream, repeat,
Alone, cutoff, self-defeat,
Consume, collect, gamble, spend,
Hollow, empty, collapse, the end.

Verse 2

So this is modern life.
Must be right or left, hate the other side,
Blind to other viewpoints, listen to the leader,
Blame a group of others for the problems in your tribe.

So this is modern life.
Sitting in a truck, heading off to war,
Not sure why you're fighting, something that the leader
said in some long boring speech you listened to before.

Now your future has been sold...
And you won't be getting old.

Chorus

Buy, subscribe, listen, watch,
Worry, panic, sleepless, lost,
Clicks, likes, follows, the game,
Lonely, withdrawn, quiet, pain.

Eat, sleep, stream, repeat,
Alone, cutoff, self-defeat,
Consume, collect, gamble, spend,
Hollow, empty, collapse, the end.

Modern Life
