For once in my life
No need to turn lights on and off
I miss the sun
What have we done?
I don’t know, I don’t know
Just like the movies
The most expensive of them all
But now it’s real
This place is wide
I’m alone
I am the Earth and the Earth is me
Each blade of grass, each honey tree
Each bit of mud, stick and stone
Is blood and muscle, skin and bone
And just as I need every bit of me
To make my body fit
So the Earth needs grass, stone and tree
And things that grow here naturally
That's why I celebrate this day
That's why across the world I say
As long as life, is dear and free
I am the Earth and the Earth is me
Gone waterfalls, animals
Such a beautiful place after all
No more pain
Just a gain
For a man of good will
Of good will
Guess I need to explain
How did I survive this war
Mostly in my head
Hear it out
I was sleeping on the couch
Playing LP’s such as Dark Side
And some old trippy stuff
I was out of this world
And then suddenly the light
Stroked my eyes
I grabbed my headphones so tight
To drown all the freaky noises around
A song is real
Sound is not
Suddenly the light stroked my eyes
I grabbed my headphones so tight
And down the road I was saved by the bells
Ringing loud
Ringing loud
Ringing loud
Ringing loud

Piggie Park (The Meal)

Chew your lies and drink more
Of that crap once said
By the folks on the edge
They called it government
I guess they’ve already flown
Far away from this broken barren land
No one would give me a loan
No one would give me a loan
Vacant stores all around me
I won’t pay no more
I feel sad I feel good
My suppertime is ahead
I wanna go for a meal
Even though it’s the end
Of the world my friend
Gotta find someone else
To make me sandwich and fries
Old stagnant values to change
It’s on the rise
I fear refashion still
Close your eyes
The irony of it all
The irony of it all
The irony of it all
Take out the flower
This is how I clean the dandelion
Take all the bad ones out
I would dream to discover
A wild horse still alive
And ride it through the junk
Still have my music to dream
Now walking down to the scene
And still hungry
I wanna get me a loan and fix the earth
Something gets in my way
They’re very good for you too
They’re tasty
You can get them for nothing
Take out all the bad ones
Wash them very very good ‘cause they’re full of dirt
Now I put it in the olive oil
Got myself into Piggie Park
Got myself into Piggie Park
Got myself into Piggie Park
Got myself into Piggie Park
Few survived I was wrong
Thinking I was the one
Found this place I believed in
No bloody zombies in sight
I know I never put pepper in salad
They're good for you, they're good...tasty
And all you need is a little patience and work

I was looking for change
And saw this pretty pretty face
Flushed out the world outside
But couldn’t see a door
Anymore. anymore. anymore
I say girls will make you prisoners
I don't mind ending up like Ellis Boyd
Warm beach sail away into relief
Stop saying it, get your feet back in the sand
The more I live the more I can die
She took a plate and hurled it at me
I say girls will make you prisoners
I don't mind ending up like Ellis Boyd
Good friends right beside the secret door
Now put back your head into the sand
I made you a castle in a swamp
I made you a castle in a swamp
No beach, just a hole behind the house
So real, you could live a princess dream
I made you a castle in a swamp
I made you a castle in a swamp
I made you a castle in a swamp
I made you a castle in a swamp

Come on, sell your tears to me I’ll buy
Come on, we’ve been lied to all the time
Let me fool around your feet
Underneath the table we
Stop the fake machinery
Stop the fake machinery
Your love is the city of Detroit
Your love needs a cleaning but it rocks
Let it fall upon itself, let it fall upon itself
Let it fall upon itself, let it fall upon itself
Come on, let me teach you how to lose
Come on, let me teach you how to lose
Come on, let me teach you how to lose
Come on, my world is no game of chess
Be strong, enjoy the ride and stay with me
Be strong, enjoy the ride and stay with me
Let if fall upon itself

We can change it anytime we want
It’s only a choice
No effort, no work, no job, no saving, money
Just a choice right now between fear and love
Find a miracle inside yourself
Peace is closer now
Time to wash my hands
I dig my future son, I dig my future son
I dig my future son
For every smile there is a child
It is just a ride
In this process
You don’t need a teacher, master, savior, only you
I dig my future girl, I dig my future girl
I dig my future girl
For every smile there is a child
I dig my future self
America it’s time to leave
I dig my future self
Fix your hair and makeup gal
Nobody wants to see your waste
Please keep your dreadful stuff behind the door
Like all nations do

Love, love
Love tastes like strawberry cheesecake
I stay away from it
We all know bliss doesn’t last
My sugar levels realize
That love tastes like strawberry cheesecake
I’ll skip it night and day
A little drunk time for a tea
My meal is done I might just leave
Smooth cream defeated by a spoon
My lips have just been kissed
We all know love doesn’t last
Although my heart is getting fat
Love tastes like strawberry cheesecake
Measuring the strength
Like strawberry cheesecake
Why on hell can’t I just try
Eating food good for myself
Feeling love that’s great and light on you
I just want to let it go
My diet you should have become

Sit down and wait for
Love is under this room
Gum chewing lady brought me some weird news
Calling it fate
She challenges me to pick one lucky girl
For the sake of a newborn race
For the sake of a newborn race
I miss colors not hate
Side by side on a stool
She would gently take my hand and say
Listen baby, I don’t really care remaking this
World once more collecting losers
All she wants is a one-night stand
Flirting, the dreams I don’t trust
So let’s celebrate loneliness
Sit down and wait for the next one to try
‘Cause this one was a real disaster
All she wants
All she wants is a one night stand
All she wants is a one night stand

Whatever happens to the guy
Who treats the girl like shit and lie
He used to take them all home then
Cheap thrills for whom their lives are so unfulfilled
Dramatic touch
Care for much, care for more
Reach now into your pocket son
I heard about the magic jingle
That broke the spell and made us live
One day in hell
Inside and out a lot to make
Nothing to take
In this new realm
No need to watch people's behaviours
Only the resources
Now we have to change our
Now we have to change our
System or perish
Traders, bankers and lawyers you are useless
I’d rather play with this silly jukebox
Than playing with you guys
Don’t be sad because this album is completed
In reality, it is not
This journey was indeed supernatural
In the past, throughout nearly all of human history
The main threat to our survival was nature
Today it is culture
We gotta start working on our own contradiction
And make the road for the next generation
In the end, we hope our hero got laid
The choice was informal
Between vanity, unconsciousness and fear
If the storm finally comes
Just remember the songs and lovers that gave you hope
Convincing you to take off your immense headphones off your ears
The illusion off your eyes
And now feel the orchestration of a new way of life
Create, share and don’t hit replay

People are crazy, but not in a good way
People are lazy, but not in a good way
Please don’t be scared
I know I don’t know you
All I ever wanted
Is a smile from a human
Life is so strange
Yet I pee in the shower
It’s so damn unusual
To be so predictable
Enough is enough
Pull the car over
Enter the sun
Enter the brightside
Enter the brightside
Enter the brightside
Sooner than you think
People are crazy but not in a good way
