“Jonah!”

Th’Lord called down from heaven
Said the wicked need a preach
But I saw through his lazy plan
And I fled out of reach

Now the wicked whip up the ocean
And the demons’re after me
Oh, when the Lord calls down for a favor, yeah, his voice ain’t so sweet

Take my will ‘cause you say gimme all
Take my mind ‘cause I always get it wrong
And take my life in the bargain ‘cause you give me no peace

I jumped into the sea
And the Lord sicced his fish on me
It swallowed me soul and body
And now I’m finally free

Don’t you even dare save me
I don’t care for your saving
All you wanna do is use me
Go find an angel for your plaything

Go tend to your forsaken
The wicked you got your heart on
O I know you’re gonna forgive them
You’re only hard on the first born

I believe you’re a gracious God
But I think you’re an angry fraud / getting soft

From the forgotten
To the known
I bless all who are my own
And I am
Who I am
Whether I forgive or if I damn
I am God

From out the fish’s belly
Spit onto the beach
I went down to Ninevah
And I gave a preach
And sure as hell, they repented, and the Lord gave reprieve

Take my ears ‘cause I can’t hear no more
Take my eyes ‘cause I’ve sure seen it all
And take my life in the bargain ‘cause you give me no peace

The Lord, he sprouted some shade
So underneath it I laid
But then he smote it for fun
And I burned up in the sun

Don’t you dare say you love me
You’re just a burden with your loving
Oh go ahead and you get angry
Even the wicked know you’re bluffing

Don’t you dare say you love me
You’re just a burden with your loving
You only burden those you love
Yeah, you only burden those you love

(Jonah’s Prayer)

In my distress I called on the Lord
Took three days but he answered me
From deep in the realm of the dead
He heard my plaintive plea

He hurled me into the depths
Into the very heart of the sea
The raging currents all swirled around
And his waves swept over me

I cried ‘O I been banished
O, from the Lord’s fond sight
Yet I pray I’ll see him again
When the Lord says the time is right

The engulfing waters threatened
The deep surrounded me
Seaweed wrapped around my head
I was as low as low can be

When my life was ebbing away
O Lord, I remembered you
I shouted out my prayer
Even the dead they heard it, too

O learn, you wicked hearts
What comes when you spite the Lord
He’ll give you three long days
Best set your heart in accord

saw you stumble along on an empty field
jumping over all the black holes of pandemic fears
filled with the collateral damage
no empty gaps
it’s not easy to find a direction
when the world turns mad
when the whole world turns mad

don’t give yourself away
sunchild
don’t surrender to these days
sunchild

the moment you see the horizon it starts to slip away
get your head up into the stars to light your way
saw you stumble along on an empty field
chased by pandemic rabbits
but you were better in hitting the hook
so it seems

don’t give yourself away
sunchild
don’t surrender to these days
sunchild

Sunchild

Where Is Peace

Can you remember those stories
That your father used to tell
About those horned devils
Rising up from Hell
In the seven rings of Hades
In the abode of the dead
Can we cross the lake of fire
To where the departed dwell

And we all seek redemption
Though we call it different things
To be borne into our Heaven
Upon an angels wings
Trailing clouds of glory
Are we such foolish things
When the noble savage brings his justice
To the deposed kings

Oh they lie and they lie again
Tell me where is peace
There is no children's lantern left
Shining in the East

and we have no regrets we say
Then how can we atone
For the caravan of sin
And all the evil we have done
We all have gods of some sort
And we pay them in the end
We best pay some attention
To what all these signs portend

Oh they lie etc

Can the wizards spin their spell for you
Bring forth your voodoo doll
Drink your drink and lift your voice
Within Valhalla's halls
We all are hollow humans
Bereft of divine joy
As we drag those empty ideals
Within the gates of Troy








Will there be transubstantiation 
Of nonsense into truth
Can we make up the things we believe in
And not ask for the proof
We all are crazy suckers
When it comes down in the end
We invested our souls in those Ponzi schemes
For some extra dividend

Oh they lie etc

Where Is Peace

What Did You Do In The Eco-Wars Daddy?

What Did You Do In The Eco-wars Daddy?

What did you do in the eco-wars daddy
Well I cut down the trees son and I wore a big hat
What did you do in the eco-wars daddy
Well I smoked lots of dope son, lay flat on my back, idling, talking, general chit chat
Bring me the head of the transport peddler
I shall stuff it and keep it forever and ever and ever

Executing proxies by order of the high court
Speak up little man I can’t hear what you say 
Executing proxies by order of the high court
Look sheriff man, just get out of my way cos the trees here are green, so here I shall stay
Bring me the head of the transport peddler
I shall stuff it and keep it forever and ever

What did you do in the eco-wars daddy
Well I beat up on hippies and groped chicks for kicks
What did you do in the eco-wars daddy
Well I sat in my digger and dreamt of my dick, raping your mother and making you sick
Bring me the head of the transport peddler 
I shall stuff it and keep it forever and ever and ever

What did you do in the eco-wars daddy
Say just what did you do in the eco-wars daddy
And just what did you do in the eco-wars daddy?

PUNKS

Don’t leave me out in the rain

What have we done, it’s happened again
How did we end up together in this burning bed
a vulnerable moment, a trick of the night
You are a worthy opponent, now i’m too tired to fight

So much depends upon the weather
clouds form so easily
So much depends upon the question
You don;t know what you ask of me..

your bag’s by the door, there’s papers to sign
Things to sort on the floor; what’s yours and what’s mine
we can’t stay together, i say can’t stay apart
When It feels like it’s over, it’s a brand new start

So much depends upon the weather
The storm breaks so easily
It don’t depend upon the answer
I already know that you’re leaving me

In case you change your mind, I’m easy to find
I’ll be frozen in time where you left me behind
I am mostly to blame, and i hate to complain
But it seems like a shame
Don’t leave me out in the rain..
tears on my face, tearing my clothes, calling your name!

So much depended on whether
Hearts break so easily 
nothing depends upon the answer
you’re already leaving me

I mostly complain, and i might be to blame

Don't Leave Me Out In The Rain

Lets be like children in hope and believe...

THE LIGHT

( for Nadine )

jesus: rhythm, lyrics, vocals
Scotty: lead, harmonica, tambourine 

if i broke your heart
i'd break it slow and sure
i'd send flowers filled with bees
and i'd break it tenderly
i'd send you letters, long
full of tender poetry
if i broke your heart, maybe
you would see

i loved you all along
the seaside and the shore,
like the waves that break upon the love 
that you endure
like autumn leaves that fall
on the grass , no longer sweet
i'd keep you all alone
to wonder, how to sleep

your dreams all full of hope
that we would meet again
up on that road, down by the riverbend
we'd never ever awake
and i would sing to you
if i broke your heart
i'd keep it with me too

If I Broke Your Heart (jesus vegas/QB Bills)

everything fades to grey
since you're gone
my silent film tries to go on
since you're gone
i got no clue where i belong
since you're gone
i am a figurine, a wounded toon
i slowly fade to grey

i lose myself in my cocoon
i slowly fade to grey
i gotta get out of here soon

i feel like losing my mind
since you're gone
the doctor says "those pills are fine
don't waste your time, get a move on!"
i gotta get away
before i'm lost in grey

i lose myself in my cocoon
i slowly fade to grey
i gotta get out of here soon

i hide myself in grey
i lose myself in my cocoon
i slowly fade to grey
i gotta get out of here soon
i slowly fade to grey
i feel like losing my mind
since you're gone
i gotta get away

Fade To Grey

cold shivers have bitten the flowers in the garden's mind
and the fever trees try to lighten the hall of the blind
the blind faith in progress decided on how the world runs
and sooner or later the killing of eden is done
 
it's no time for butterflies
when the whore of babylon is on the way to the sky
no time for butterflies
anymore

the trees are sending s.o.s. from the roots into the crown
and the creation's crown explains it was all the time the same, an up and down
but this time maybe it's a little bit different
when the sea breathes plastic we're close to the start of the bitter end

it's no time for butterflies
when the whore of babylon is on the way to the sky
no time for butterflies
anymore
