capsized

no creeping up on me this time
you body bag full of slime
the source was on the phone again said you're the last one in the chain
the source was on the phone again said you're the last one in the chain
poor advisers had their say
leaving you in disarray    
if you just had half a brain
you'd turn your back
and never show up again
time to set the record straight
was it about something you hate
something you always tried to escape
something you always tried to escape

capsized
you capsized

somethings coming near (oh yeah)
watch it disappear
watch it disappear
somethings coming near (oh yeah)
watch it disappear

Capsized

Tonight You Belong To Me

Cowboy Joe (NACA High-Speed Flight Station test pilot Joseph Walker) and his steed (Bell Aircraft Corporation X-1A). Walker piloted the first NACA flight on July 20, 1955. Walker attempted a second flight on August 8, 1955, but an explosion damaged the aircraft just before launch. Walker, unhurt, climbed back into the JTB-29A mothership, and the X-1A was jettisoned over the Edwards AFB bombing range.

sixty million faces 
and a poison drop
get on top get on top get on top get on top
 
the brakes are screaming
but the car just won’t stop
get on top get on top get on top get on top
 
your house is on fire
and your children shall burn
get on top get on top get on top
 
you’re standing at the crossroads
and take the wrong turn
get on top get on top get on top
 
your hunger exceeds your limits by far
your hunger exceeds your limits by far
your hunger exceeds your limits by far
your hunger exceeds 
 
your needs are taken care of
right on the spot
get on top get on top get on top get on top
 
the target is moving 
but you’re taking a shot
get on top get on top get on top get on top
 
how you gonna buy
what you can't afford
get on top get on top get on top get on top
 
you march in full armour
and fall on your sword
get on top get on top get on top get on top
 
your hunger exceeds your limits by far
your hunger exceeds your limits by far
your hunger exceeds your limits by far
your hunger exceeds your limits by far 
 
the chicken’s still dancing
the chicken wont stop
get on top get on top get on top get on top
 
the boiler’s under pressure
the plate is still hot
get on top get on top i dont want you to stop
 
your path is completely
off the beaten track
get on top get on top get on top get on top
 
you ve lost that loving feeling
and you’re ready to attack
get on top get on top get on top get on top
 
 
your hunger exceeds your limits by far
your hunger exceeds your limits by far
your hunger exceeds your limits by far
your hunger exceeds your limits by far

DONT KILL THE MESSENGER

i dont mind if you do the talking
i’m not a man of words
but come on let’s do some walking 
and dont fall down the stairs
i searched my pockets to find the token
building on what’s already there
and if it wasnt enough no i’m not joking
it was hidden beneath underwear

dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger

what falls apart sure needs some stitching
this cut looks pretty deep
why on earth do i feel so itchy
scratching until it bleeds
the damage done it’s never easy
but now it’s time to lower the shades
and i can’t stop, can’t stop complaining
this should never happen again
and i can’t stop, can’t stop complaining
this should never ever happen again

dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger

i dont no why you burst out laughing
i didnt get the joke
maybe i should do the talking
or just go for a walk
this is like a live broadcast
looping till infinity
and i can’t stop, can’t stop complaining
it should never ever happen to me 

dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger
  
i dont mind if you do the talking
i’m not a man of words
but come on let’s do some walking 
and dont fall down the stairs
what falls apart sure needs some stitching
this cut looks pretty deep
why on earth do i feel so itchy
scratching until it bleeds
why on earth do i feel so itchy
scratching until it bleeds

dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger
dont kill the messenger

Don't Kill The Messenger

SAY-SO

i’m burning then i crumble to dust
i'm volunteering for the national trust
don’t you just sit on the shelf
when your life can be so meaningful to someone  else

don’t  just believe it on my say-so, say-so
don’t  just believe it on my say-so, say-so

dont just believe it on my say-so, say-so
dont just believe it on my say-so, say-so

now is the time to put things into use
now is the time to blow your fuse
safeguarding is the easy way out
it’s much better when the ruins stand proud

dont just believe it on my say-so, say-so
dont just believe it on my say-so, say-so

how many points to get a d-grade
this is the highest level reached today
how many points to get a d-grade 
this is the highest level reached today
           
your opinion matters 
now thank you so much
we'll see you later for the finishing touch

dont just believe it on my say-so, say-so
dont just believe it on my say-so, say-so

…

Say-So

Everything You Said

everything you said
is stuck inside my head
i thought i started to forget
but it’s stuck inside my head

stuck inside my head
stuck inside my head
i’m stuck inside my head
stuck inside my head

well i wrote you a letter
to change the worse to the better
’cause everything you said
is stuck inside my head

i aint got a clue
when i think about you
the harder i try
the less i get through
and i aint got a clue
i aint got a clue

well i wrote you a letter
to change the worse to the better
because everything you said
is stuck inside my head
’cause everything you said
is stuck inside my head
stuck inside my head
stuck inside my head
i’m stuck inside my head

Everything You Said

(another song of our unplugged Setlist)

Yeah, it will be okay
And everything’s all right
And all the lights will shine
And everything is mine and I will

Beg, borrow and steal
Beg, borrow and steal

And you twist and turn
And you cry and mourn
And the sky is high
And you're asking why you have to 

Beg, borrow and steal
Beg, borrow and steal

You tried to wake the dead
But you can’t get ahead
And your will of steel
Won’t fix another deal

You have to beg, borrow and steal
Beg, borrow and steal
Beg, borrow and steal
Beg, borrow and steal

Beg, Borrow And Steal

Digging

I was climbing up the walls cause nothing would happen
I brought my thoughts to a halt, just to forget it

I was digging up the ground
Nothing could be found 
Digging up the ground
Nothing could be found
Digging up the ground
There's nothing to be found
Digging up the ground
Nothing could be found

All the obstacles and twists, that come your way
Are still the same the next day

I was digging up the ground
Nothing could be found 
Digging up the ground
Nothing to be be found
I was digging up the ground
There's nothing to be found
Digging up the ground
There's nothing to be found
Digging up the ground
There's nothing to be found
Digging up the ground
There's nothing to be found
Digging up the ground
Nothing to be found
