I´M IN LOVE WITH YOU TONIGHT
One cannot foresee the future, but in my mind i have a picture. The moon will shine its light; and the turtle doves will coo-coo. I'm in love with you tonight. Tonight i'm in love with you.
You can only do your best, 'cause you never know what's next. Me, i know that the time is right; and i know what i wanna do. I'm in love with you tonight. Tonight i'm in love with you.
When you kiss me you will know the true meaning of this calypso. Close your eyes and count to two. Quit stalling, i'm not gonna bite. Tonight i'm in love with you. I'm in love with you tonight.
Close your eyes and count to two; the moon will shine its light. Tonight i'm in love with you. I'm in love with you to-night.

TROUBLE IN MY BUBBLE

TROUBLE IN MY BUBBLE
i was free (free, free), free to travel around, over the sea (sea, sea), and over the ground. Drinking beer in Vienna and sherry wine in Spain until the devil came knocking on my door again. There was trouble, trouble in my bubble.
Now i've got all i need, and indeed much more; and i don't even need to walk to the store. My name and features are all registered in code; and we've got fences on both sides of the road. There is trouble, trouble in my bubble.
Here is the trailer for the sequel: we're all gonna be created equal. My bubble will grow; my bubble won't burst; and no-one is ever gonna die of thirst. No more trouble, trouble in my bubble.

TODOS QUIEREN SER POLIS
Todos quieren ser polis. A mi me parece raro. Todos quieren ser polis, y yo sigo en paro.
Los vecinos se quejan, y a mi no me dejan ni siquiera cantar con Javito en el bar.
Las viejitas por la guagua, y las rayas en el agua, y los perros del barranco, todos quieren ser Franco.
Yo sigo sin trabajo, con las rayas abajo, con los drones arriba, y las pelotas afuera.
El pueblo hoy en día no tiene fantasía, ni derecha ni izquierda, como reyes de mierda.

IF YOU LOVE ME AT ALL
I've got the sun and the moon, the mountains and the sea. Now i would throw them all away for you. But if you love me at all, please don't tell me what to do.
Oh yes i've been a fool. I've been selfish and mean, and i haven't made it up to you yet. But if you love me at all, have a drink and let's forget.
I've told you many things, and some of them not true. A lot of them just awkward and lame. But if you love me at all, don't you listen to me ever again.

NUTS
I keep thinking that i must be going positively nuts.
I keep thinking that someone is filming me when i'm just walking past some building. I'm so crazy that sometimes i think i'm seeing eyes flying in the sky.
I keep thinking that i must be going positively nuts.
I keep thinking that all of humanity
has committed itself to sheer insanity, and prohibited smiling, partying, and kissing. And i'm trying to speak, but they won't listen.
I keep thinking that i must be going positively nuts.
I keep thinking the weirdest thing, that they don't even want me to sing. No dancing, no drinking, no thinking this year. Give me one good reason, 'cause i've no idea.

ONE CIVILIZATION
During the great masquerade of 2020, we won nothing and lost plenty just like that. We used to have dances and drinks, Marx, his brothers, and Stanley Brinks. Now look at what we've got.
Dee ay dee-oh duh ree tee dee duh lee day, you can throw me out if you don't want me to stay. Dee ay dee-oh duh ree tee dee duh lee day, you can throw me out, but i'm leaving anyway.
There is no science, only the news. Bits of information that they choose to put in the spotlight just to sell. What makes sense, and what does not? What is a slogan, and what is a thought? Neither the people nor their leaders can tell.
I am not allowed to sing, and no-one is saying anything. Do you know anyone who likes to think? Well i don't, and it's a crying shame. Machines have finally won the game. One civilization is about to sink.

WISDOM OF LOVE
Books hold a lot of wisdom, i think; but the only place you'll find the kind of wisdom that sticks is within your own mind. The kind of wisdom that sticks is within your own mind.
So leave it all up to me, it's been a long long night. Leave it all up to me, we're gonna be alright.
I've watched a lot of Hollywood movies. That's how i learned to live, it's true. But the thing that really did it for me was falling in love with you. The thing that really did it for me was falling in love with you.
You'll never really see through someone else's eyes; but love will strike you silly, and love will make you wise. Love will strike you silly,
and love will make you wise.
You can find the meaning of life, and give it the shape of a song. But you're never gonna sing it right until real love comes along. You're never gonna sing it right until real love comes along.

MAKE THE MOST OF WHAT YOU'VE GOT
Make the most of what you've got, 'cause what you've got is a lot. Times may have been rough; you may have lost people and stuff. But what you've got is a lot, so make the most of what you've got.
Make the most of what you've got, and look at what you thought you sought. Just try and give it a shot. Make the most of what you've got
Make the most of what you've got, 'cause if you've got anything, well, that is a lot. Even when you're falling apart, and there is ice in the middle of your heart, if you've got anything, well that's a lot. So make the most of what you've got.
Make the most of what you've got. Maybe you've got experience, maybe not. Your body may be weak or numb; maybe you can't even raise one thumb. But maybe you've got a brain, or whatnot, so make the most of what you've got.

BLUE
Blue is good like sleep, like time, like having nothing on your mind. Like nothing's ever happened before. Like being alive and nothing more.
Oh, i like blue. Blue makes me think of you.
Blue is the color of some fishes and birds. Blue is not so common in the walking world. You've gotta be swimming, you've gotta be flying. You've gotta stop fighting, you've gotta stop trying.
Blue is the color of the sea and sky. It's a useful color, and i'll tell you why. It's quite obvious, if you ask me: you've gotta be seeing blue to feel free.

RED
Red, red gets me every time. Red is on my mind.
Red calls you, red says, "you". Red won't tell you any lies, and you will believe your eyes when red says "you".
Red is red like red wine. Red was never afraid of me. Red has never betrayed me, just like red wine.
Red is hot all through the night. Red is the sunset, and the glowing tip of a cigarette between your lips. Red is hot all through the night.

MARIONNETTES
Ya pas d'suite dans les idées. Ya personne pour décider. Mais des ficelles, yen a partout. Les marionnettes, c'est nous.
C'est roulé au roulement a billes, goupillé d'ici aux Antilles. On nous enfile par tous les trous. Les marionnettes, c'est nous. Le capital, le parti, kif kif. Y s'en branlent de la queue au pif qu'on s'écrase et reste en dessous. Les marionnettes, c'est nous.
Et si t'essayes de penser tout seul, l'univers te fermera la gueule. Et t'iras finir chez les fous. Les marionnettes, c'est nous.
