picture biggy bratwurst on a night out somewhere in west berlin talking to a guy called ziggy sauerkraut dialogue kicking in: "i have fallen way down from the sky to here it wasn't a pretty fall and i'm not staring back up to the stars my dear i'm just staring at this wall and i'm trying to break it down with a song i've been trying all night long "i'm out here looking for an answer how about you?...

little boy all the creatures of the day fell asleep and you must be on your way to a world that is not quite what it seems to await you to guide you through your dreams sweet dreams things look bright with a rainbow in the sky and the birds flap their wings to keep you dry how they sing not a worry in sight say hello and i will say good night good night

I’m not so clumsy It’s just that I can’t be Bothered to care And I dare you to dance with me I’m not too clumsy I just have this thing, see A careless affair With my dear lady gravity Now when I’m looking for my gravity There is a chance I’ll find her chasing me and see I face her and I’m doing fine There is a real good chance I’ll make her mine And she goes down, real slow And I know now – oh yes...

a turkish marxist drinking mccafe at the dappermarkt in amsterdam longing for a decent cafe but coffee must take precedence as life is complicated enough to be sedated by a shot to wake up from the fact she woke up living someplace new again in amsterdam or anywhere someplace new again looking at the icons on the coffee her phone delivers someone's kiss the cup says contents might be hot the obvio...

“the beauty of the bridge you’re on”, says the Gambler, “well you should try it twice - as it’s best seen from the one” and then he's pointing his cards at the unthrown dice round and round and round we'd be like Buddhists failing at nirvana if there are angels they forgot us in this game some guy is screaming things in Czech, it's the cutest kind of drama and Tyche isn’t there to take the blame s...

she said boy, you're too cold, boy and slightly too old, boy to do as you're told, boy

i'm not in love - i'm insane i've been thinking about how to tune a brain

lyrics by Randy Newman

and if we go down then we will go in style

we are sheep space sheep travelling by train across the universe looking for a planet where the grass is green greener than the world where we just came from it is cumbersome but we keep moving on and on heading for another shade of green just to find you and we dream seem to dream of grass that's blue and skies so green and we're green too all is black black sheep staring at a sky that's filled w...

i have done stuff i struggled with ambition done stuff to the loosest definition of stuff and now i will a call it a day and will do stuff of a different persuasion just enough for a funky ocasion the kind of stuff that teasingly leads me astray i'll do that stuff and then i will call it a day and what a day to waste some time away i've done stuff i have forgiven you and me it's a lovely way of li...

Big Bag Of Love by [van den b]

i don't know what to say about this song some might say it's happy but they're wrong it's just as you reluctantly confessed a quite annoying tune when you're depressed it won't exactly kill you but you might strangle me with my guitar strings in the night when it's never gonna be alright it's never gonna be alright (no) but it might just be a little better tomorrow tomorrow is another fucking day...
