Won't Be Happy Today - Franzicek Fabuleux

I grew up as a city kid with post-punk, grunge and all.
but somehow I ended up here, a mix of hell and Idaho
Never, really never did I think that I‘d be happy in the nowhere,
but when the world gets to your skin it can't hurt to slow things down

but don't kid yourself, it's green out here.
but the souls are just as black
it's just that there are fewer
here, off the beaten track
but don't kid yourself, it's green out here.
but the souls are just as black
we stare into the woods
and the woods stare back

You want a brand new life? In town, you just move two blocks away
If you got a bloody nose, downtown... you'll never see that jerk again. 
Out here, you can bet on that, they do know how to raise some cain
but whatever happened yesterday, you'll see them all again.

so, don't kid yourself, it's green out here.
but the souls are just as black
it's just that there are fewer
here, off the beaten track
you may think the sky is blue
just when the clouds turn black
we stare into the woods
and the woods stare back

The kids are stuck in no-man's-land, they dream themselves away
They catch a glimpse of the outside world with every early train:
Racing through the suburbs, they check their phones so busily…
Someday they'll move away, and guys like me live here instead

so, don't kid yourself, it's green out here.
but the souls are just as black
it's just that there are fewer
here, off the beaten track
you may think the sky is blue
just when the clouds turn black
we stare into the woods
and the woods stare back

The Woods Stare Back (Rehearsal) THE SANDBOX JOSEPHS

1.
changes happen slowly‬
suddenly it’s there‬
you know you have the syndrome‬
you just don't know where‬
‬
you may even try‬
to jump from the stretcher when they come‬
but you know what you‘ve been told‬
too slow, too fat, too poor, too old‬
‬
So close your eyes and let it go‬
cos they‘re only here for you‬
when they lay you down‬
to the ground
and you‘ll be pushing up daisies‬
and there is nothing you can do‬
once they’ve put you in the ground‬
six feet down‬
six feet down‬

2.
you might clutch on every straw‬
however cool you may have been‬
now you face the tribunal‬
no time to wipe your records clean‬

you may even try‬
to jump from the stretcher when they come‬
but you know what you‘ve been told‬
too dull, too sad, too smart, too bold‬
‬
So close your eyes and let it go‬
cos they‘re only here for you‬
when they lay you down‬
to the ground
and you‘ll be pushing up daisies‬
and there is nothing you can do‬
once they’ve put you in the ground‬‬
six feet down‬
six feet down‬
six feet down‬
six feet down‬

They said don't try this at home, but I did.

Let It All Out

AIR

Awake from coma sleep
Where the dreams ain’t deep
Though my bones are aching
I try to move my feet
The point of no return
Turn the light on with a yawn
Don’t look back in anger
You had the time to learn

Sometimes we talk too much
And wish that we had not
Don’t ya do yourself wrong
Yesterday’s long gone

Cause every word’s just air
It’s not really there 


Awake from coma sleep
Now you’re back out in the street
Don’t you try to shun the views
Of all the people you may meet
You wonder did you squall around
Lectured everyone all about
Or have you told your favorite lies
And  got busted looking like a lout

All the Crap you regret, well it’s just air
Have a good look around, you see : it ain’t there!
Pop back into the dancing palace
With the shades on everyone’s a Bruce Willis!

Gabsteiger Night Bakery

When the Bars close down and you’re back out in the night
At one a.m. and you feel just like you’d need a bite
If you wanna nibble on a pork roast bread you’ll see
You can get it right here at the night bakery

While all the gangsters sleep in jail
The guards show up, but the nightbirds still prevail

And we all meet
At the night bakery
Gabsteiger night bakery

Just where do we go now
without the night bakery

Rain Rain Rain Go Away

Here inside the box 
you can' t see anything
hard to stay awake
don’t fight sleeping in
Rain, Rain, go away
When it all began
we had our ears to the wall
Now we do not know
Is it summer or fall
Rain, rain, go away

Don’t you go gentle in the dead of night
I have no idea what’s happening now 
if only we had a light
So rain, rain, go away
We all need a break now,  can’t take another day

Imagine all the darkness 
everywhere in town
Now we’re in a deadlock 
but we can’t back down
Rain, Rain, go away
Kids are running riot
Never go to bed
You wonder how tell em
That your mother’s dead
Rain, Rain, go away

Don’t you go gentle in the dead of night
I have no idea what’s happening now 
if only we had a light
So rain, rain, go away
We all need a break now,  can’t take another day

Rain Rain go away
Come back another day
