VERSE 1

We were dreadfully drunk

No way to have more fun

Dead beers covering the floor

No way to reach the door

 

He climbs up to a car’s roof

And he pisses on the hood

You jump head first in the river

And dance with a fire extinguisher

 

Not sure ‘bout the way to move

But it looks we’re in the groove

Disrespect for law and order

It’s gonna be a hell of a hangover

 

 

CHORUS

Dreadfully, dreadfully drunk, dreadfully

Dreadfully, dreadfully drunk, dreadfully

Dreadfully, dreadfully drunk, dreadfully

Dreadfully, dreadfully drunk, dreadfully

 

Dreadfully Drunk

 

 

VERSE 2

He fights against a signpost

He gets caught by the cops

Spends the night in the drunk tank

Believes himself invincible

 

You don’t know what got into your head

Wake up with someone in your bed

You’re quite shocked by his identity

Quite hard to dig into your memory

 

We sang so loud in the street

My make-up running on my cheeks

Fingers into the socket

We sat and watched the sunset

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

BRIDGE

Dreadfully drunk (x4)

 

 

We were dreadfully drunk

No way to have more fun

Dead beers covering the floor

No way to reach the door

 

 

VERSE 1

Mr Jelly is a fucking fish

He lives hidden in the sand

He eats pieces of shit

Mr Jelly is really foolish

 

Mr Jelly thinks he’s in the sea

He keeps the mouth opened and

He swallows anything around him

Mr Jelly is a piece of shit

 

Mr Jelly makes you fall asleep

With his so called melody

The sounds he makes when he talks...

Mr Jelly makes you fall asleep

 

 

CHORUS

No bones, no shell,

You can see through his eyes his mind is empty

No colour, no flavour

He won’t believe he’s the king of nothing

No bones, no shell,

You can see through his eyes his mind is empty

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mister Jellyfish

 

 

VERSE 2

Mr Jelly is a bloody fish

Follow his lead or he will bite you

Be sure he doesn’t think much of you

Mr Jelly thinks you’re a stupid sheep

 

Mr Jelly is so selfish

He will never grant your wish

Mr Jelly wants the leadership

But he’s just good to be a son of a bitch

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

Mr Jelly is so selfish

He will never grant your wish

 

Mr Jelly wants the leadership

But he’s just good to be a son of a bitch

 

 

CHORUS

No bones, no shell,

You can see through his eyes his mind is empty

No colour, no flavour

He won’t believe he’s the king of nothing

No bones, no shell,

You can see through his eyes his mind is empty

No colour, no flavour

He won’t believe he’s the king of nothing

 

 

 

VERSE

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

BRIDGE

Oh oh oh

Ah ah ah

Never… say die

 

Never say die

Never say die

Never say die

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

VERSE

Hey babe welcome to life

You know it’s darker than hell

Nobody told you?

You don’t feel well…

 

Hey you look surprised

You won’t get a booby prize

You look so white

Don’t forget to breathe

 

Don’t don’t don’t be sad my dear

Don’t don’t don’t choke on your beer

 

 

 

CHORUS

Never say die

And ask for more

Think about a decent revenge

Prove there is no fate

Never say die, never say die

 

 

 

 

 

 

Never Say Die

 

 

 

CHORUS (x 2)

 

 

VERSE 3

Face to face here we are again

Father and son, father and son,

Childhood was a pain

But now everything is done

We’re still alone

No rules for that game

Your pride and mine

And no complain

 

CHORUS (x 2)

 

 

BRIDGE

And now

There are no more lies

And now

We begin to smile

We’re not blind anymore

 

 

VERSE 1

Once upon a time

Father and son, father and son

You roughly hurt my mind

With nothing to pass on

No lots of passion

I wasted my teenage days

Lying in my bed

All that in vain

 

 

CHORUS (x 2)

You gave me life

But forgot love

Your silence was a knife

No road to follow

A look with no light

‘Cause you turned it off

You’re my reason to fight

Father and son

 

 

VERSE 2

What the fuck was going on

Father and son, father and son

We didn’t face our reality

Acting like strangers

To each other

You failed your natural duty

Never cared about me

Good bye daddy

 

 

 

 

Father & Son

 

 

VERSE 1

Hey Elvis

You know each night I wish

I were your doll or your fight

 

Hey Elvis

I wish I were your Miss

So you and I could make out

 

Hey Elvis

You know each night I wish

I were the one to have your eyes

 

Hey Elvis

You just make me foolish

And don’t tell me the music lies

 

Hey Elvis

You know each night I wish

Our clothes would vanish

 

Hey Elvis

In that bed by me you’d stand

Making alive your legend

 

 

CHORUS

Ooooh Elvis

Your music, your dance

Would catch me in a glance

From fantasy to bliss

 

Ooooh Elvis

Your hips, your look,

Your hands, your voice,

Are an ecstasy kiss

 

 

VERSE 2

Hey Elvis

The strings of your guitar

Play the chords that made you a star

 

 

 

 

Hey Elvis !

 

 

 

Hey Elvis

You drive my ears crazy

And make my body so lazy

 

Hey Elvis

Play me like if I were your toy

Just a game we’d enjoy

 

Hey Elvis

Please trap me in your arms

And I’ll turn on all alarms

 

Hey Elvis

You’ll invent rock ’n roll

And once again I’ll be your doll

 

Hey Elvis,

Your rhythm makes my blood sing

And keeps my body dancing

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

VERSE 3

Hey Elvis

You can own all the scenes

Just lighting up the screen

 

Hey Elvis

I think you’re looking at me

And that’s my little victory

 

Hey Elvis

The rhythm you had at that time

Is the same I have in mind

 

Hey Elvis

You’ve invented rock ’n roll

And once again I was your doll

 

 

Oh oh oh oh oh
Eeeeeeeel…..vi….is!

 

 

CHORUS

Right or wrong

My mind plays me like a fool

Gentle versus strong

I don’t know how to choose

 

Good or bad

My heart is broken in two

Shy versus wild

I love the both of you

 

 

VERSE 1

We’ve been together for almost eleven years

Our life was perfect, thought I could live with you forever

But when I met him, everything fell apart

Don’t get this feeling, don’t know what’s saying my heart

Don’t know what’s saying, saying my heart

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

VERSE 2

Handsome man smoking fine cigarette?

Or mysterious guy wearing a black leather jacket?

You are the kind of man every mother would like

He is a real bad boy, riding his motorbike

Riding his motorbike

You & Him

 

 

 

BRIDGE 1

You? Him?

You or Him? Him or You?

You and Him… Him and You!

 

When I dance with you, I see my future in front of me

I imagine our big house and how our children would be

When I dance with him, body to body, cheek to cheek,

The world just stops turning; no more hide and seek.

 

 

CHORUS 2

Good or bad

Right or wrong

My heart betrays my mind

I don’t know where I belong

(x2)

 

 

BRIDGE 2

You… Him…

I can’t choose between Him and

You…  Him…

I want the both of

You… Him…

You ouh-ouh-ouh ouh-ouh-ouh ouh!

 

 

VERSE 1

Blind, dead blind, dead to the game he just started,

Is it the pleasure or the pressure he wanted ?

Diamonds are not real but it’s his money he plays

He’s not sure if he wants to check and raise

The people are staring at him, his look, his moves,

And that chick’s look stucked on his hands

The moment he gets his cards he’s in the action

He probably doesn’t see his own addiction

 

 

CHORUS

Poker player

He lost the game and he’s to blame

Poker player, between fear and fake

He swore he’ll never play again

Poker player, between fear and fake

 

 

 

Poker Player

 

 

 

VERSE 2

A choice will be made between his home and his honour

But how to be sure he’ll get the right coulour

Hearts he’s holding have been broken

But a glitter of hope remains under the gun

Tables and stakes are sweating, who’s going to fold ?

A scream of anger, the luck is gone

Now he walks alone with no more desire

He looks at this own face in a broken mirror

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

Addiction will loose your mind

Destruction will never mind

Addiction…

 

 

VERSE 1

You look good and stunning all the time

Good and stunning, all the time

You feel great and happy everyday

Great and happy, everyday…

You must have a secret

To be always so perfect

Perfect, what is your secret?

How the hell do you do

To make everybody smile around you?

 

 

CHORUS

Please tell me, my friend

Do you have a recipe for happiness?

Is there a magical potion that can

Keep away troubles and sadness?

 

 

VERSE 2

Pour some trust and generosity,

Trust and generosity,

Add a pinch of love and money,

A pinch of love and money

Mix together with sharing and forgiveness

Top it with an icing of joy and cheerfulness

Could this be a good way

To make sad memories feel so yesterday?

 

 

 

Happiness Recipe

 

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

BRIDGE

Please give me your recipe

Recipe for happy-happiness

Happiness, happiness

Happy Happy Happy, Happy Happy Happiness 

Happiness Happi-ness, Happiness,       

Happiness Happi-ness, Happiness,                 

Happiness ohhh happiness                      

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

Please give it to me

Your happiness recipe…

 

Please tell me, my dear friend

What is your recipe for happiness?

 

 

 

CHORUS (x2)

Bastard ! Go, leave, don’t even look at me

Coward ! Go, leave, don’t even touch me

 

 

VERSE 2

Pray on the Bible again

Stay on that way, I can’t wait

You hate me cause I threw you away

But you said I was not allowed to stay

 

Dive, fucker dive, and go deeper

Drown in your glass and stay in it

You’ll never go back to the surface

If you put your head out, I will slap your face

 

Out of my life, bloody drunker

Out of my sight, forever,

You sleep with a bottle dreaming you hold me

But like alcohol, I just vanished

 

 

CHORUS (x2)

 

CHORUS (x1)

 

 

I saw you and you saw me

We fell in love…beautiful story

 

But when I saw the real you

My love has gone… I’ll never forgive you

 

 

VERSE 1

Cry, baby cry, forget me,

Die, baby die, believe me

You know that life no longer worth it

You know that time’s over for that story

 

Follow my lead, it’s my law,

You crowl in the street, it’s your fault

Course you would say, you lost what you owned

Course you would sell the rest of your soul

 

Lie, baby lie, deceive me,

Dry, baby dry, bury me,

You know it’s too late to tell me

You know you’ll never ever fuck me

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bastard !

 

 

 

CHORUS (x2)

I miss those beautiful lost days

My mind’s stuck in the past but my body lives today

I know the smell, I know the taste of homesickness

 

 

VERSE 3

We didn’t need to speak just looked at each other

You could freely read in my eyes

I wanted to be by your side all the time

Now I’m like a stranger in paradise

How did you dare giving up what we had

And why did I let you go ?

My heart is heavy and my pain is raining

And now look the tears you made me cry

 

 

CHORUS (x2)

 

 

VERSE 1

Every step I walk in the streets of this town

Hurts my heart inside and makes me down

Weather’s cloudy and – and the rain is falling

I feel inside me this weird feeling

We were together and often went home at dawn

But those moments are gone

We had many good times in this town

That I might be crying all alone

 

 

VERSE 2

Every time I smell the scent of this fragrance

I remember I was living in balance

Then I remember we went out on this street

Looking for something to eat

We didn’t care about food but only shared time

Just holding hands and walking in silence

You went away, our loved scared you

I will never ever forget you

 

 

Homesickness

 

 

VERSE 1

Watching the screens of rain, we climb on that moutain

We stand in that cold wind, in the middle of rain,

Watching the storms again, we wish that we were gone

In the happiness lights, all crushed under stones

We keep dreaming each night, we fly on that green cloud

We hope our screams will lead us out the night

We hope someday we’ll see the light that will help us to get out

To get out from that eternal underground

 

 

CHORUS

No past or present

No future in your hand

No link between now and never

Too many nights

Too many sights

Blown in the shade we will not survive

No past or present

No future in your hand

No link between now and never

 

 

Screens of Rain

 

 

 

VERSE 2

We stand in that french spleen, we keep this weird feeling,

Thinking this is good sense in our deep loneliness

We look into the night, we run away from sadness

And we stand there, thinking that we could win

Our screams are not too loud, our tears are enough

Our children will dir after they burst in laughts

We can’t realize we’re just feeding their death

Cause we have to face, we’re just a mistake on earth

 

 

CHORUS

 

 

Screens of rain, screens of rain, screens of rain (x4)

Screens of rain...

 

 

 

 

 

VERSE 1

Maybe I’m already away

Do we walk on the same way ?

Maybe I’ll stay ‘till the morning…

Maybe I’m still afraid to go

My heart is used to be alone

Maybe as cold as a stone

Maybe it’s just my own war

But I feel so good in your arms

Maybe I’ll stay ‘till I grew old

 

 

CHORUS (x2)

Am I gone again

Afraid of life ?

Afraid of lie ?

Is your hand

The right one

Is your heart ready to love ?

Maybe

 

 

 

VERSE 2

Maybe cause you lied to me once

And that’s for me the worth

Maybe I’ll never overcome

Maybe the past just never dies

Can new words blow away old lies ?

Maybe we could just try…

Maybe I want you by my side,

And if I fall asleep

Maybe I want to wake up in your smile…

 

 

CHORUS (x2)
