Rat Jazz
GER©2017

Blue is the night, she staggers through her crooked town
Street lights and laughing heads, they've seen it all and been there too

Hot jazz, from underground, the kind that sticks and burns your skin
Hot rats, a million freaks, up from the dead, all hungry as hell

And she knows, it's in the air, the stench of blood from gnashing teeth
The first attack, she kicks free, but then some more and the game is lost

Rat jazz, from all around, the kind that sticks and burns like acid
And the moon and the stars above have nothing to add but dead silence

Out Of Control
GER©2017

It's us or them, he spit the words out of his mouth, it will spread like a disease
And with the good lord by our side we'll bring them down, down, to their knees

So here we are, all over again, man fighting man, man fighting man

Ten thousand soldiers out, marching the streets, shut your windows, slam your door
The taste of blood is like heroin, give me more, give me more, give me more

So here we are, all over again, man fighting man, man fighting man

Out of control, out of control, raise your flag, we’re so out of control
Out of control, yeah, out of control, raise your flag, we’re so out of control

Out Of Control

Clockwork Owl
GER©2015

The wind is howling and the walls shake
Do you go to sleep or do you stay awake? 
The Clockwork Owl, she’s heaven, she’s hell 
In a minute, tick-tock, she will cast the spell

Whoo-hoo, tick-tock, no evil in the house 
Whoo-hoo, tick-tock, no evil in the house 

The furniture is dancing and the candle flame spit 
Do you cross your chest or do you search for IT? 
The Clockwork Owl, she’s heaven, she’s hell 
In a minute, tick-tock, she will cast the spell

Whoo-hoo, tick-tock, evil in the house 
Whoo-hoo, tick-tock, evil in the house 

The radio is broadcasting, even though it’s broke 
And you can’t stop laughing, cos you think it’s all a joke
The Clockwork Owl, she’s heaven, she’s hell 
In a minute, tick-tock, she will cast the spell

Whoo-hoo, tick-tock, whoo-hoo, tick-tock
Whoo-hoo, tick-tock, whoo-hoo, tick-tock

Ho Hum

He killed them all, Lee Stark, the youth in town, Lee Stark
This is the tale, so blue, that goes around my town
 
A devil's joke, Lee Stark, such morbid phrase, Lee Stark
A necrologue so cruel, support his case, disgrace
 
Ho hum, nothing but, ho hum, another day
Ho hum, more or less, ho hum, Hell to pay
 
Boy, was he traced, Lee Stark, twelve blood hounds, Lee Stark
Hung by his neck, crick-crack, on evil ground, six down
 
Ho hum, nothing but, ho hum, another day
Ho hum, more or less, ho hum, Hell to pay

Ho Hum

Last Rendezvous
GER©2018
 
There's no good reason
For us not to meet
Stop second-guessing
And follow your feet

I'll be here waiting
The night is still young
The band is playing
But something is wrong

Something is missing
And that something is you
It may or may not be
Our last rendezvous

Come, let's go chasing
The wind and the fire
Should not be fighting
Your burning desire

I hear laughter
All over this  town
But I'm the only
Down-hearted clown

Something is missing
And that something is you
It may or may not be
Our last rendezvous

If you dare
And if you really care
At all

Last Rendezvous

Game Of Life

This is what I’ve heard
God help if it’s true
You shot your old man down
You told me you would
You showed me you could
He won’t play Jack no more
 
This is what I’ve heard
God knows if it’s true
Cops all around your house
They found the poor sod
In a big pool of blood
Dead on your kitchen floor
 
Why worry 'bout blame 
He had a bad name
And he lost the game of life
 
And the story goes
He had to roll the dice
To the point of no return
The tax collector smiled
Behold, my lost child
Meet me at the door
 
Why worry 'bout blame
You had a bad name
And you lost the game of life

El Diablo
GER©2018
 
I was found in the desert
My skin was badly burned
Qué ha pasado, she asked me
The old Mexican nurse
 
I was talking in my sleep
El Diablo, she would say
She cleaned my wounds ‘n cried
Señor, I fear the worst
 
Once, I met the spirit myself
Back when I was young
He had a snake's tongue
 
Laughed at me and turned to smoke
Vanished in a haze
I never saw his face
 
They found marks on my neck
Hot toxic in my blood
So they sent for a priest
A black-caped servant of God
 
Immundus spiritus, he said
Holding his cross up high
I thought I’d meet my maker
Instead, he made me deny

El Diablo
