1.Revelation
Revelation
This is the time for revelation
You can't impress me with your education
Cause what i want from you is not your head
But i tell you what to do with it before we go to bed
And that is：
Throw it away
Revelation
You've got a boyfriend with long black hair
I tell you what baby i don't care
You took my finger so test the rest
Compare me to your 'heinz' and then
Tell me who's best, and
Throw him away...
Revelation
This is the time for revelation
So let down your pants
She believes in a god above
She says the bible is the book of love
She says： take me in your arms
And i'll tell you what i'll do
I love you tonight and then i'll kick you, and：
Throw you away...
2.Killing Fountains
I see rockets in the desert sky
I see flesh and blood and i don't know why
I've seen fathers and i've seen them die
I've seen mothers and their daughters cry
Surprised soldiers with holes in their heads
Smiling presidents sweating in their beds
Dreaming of the land where the black gold flows
Where the sun always shines
And the desert wind blows
It's always one step forward and two steps back
They stumble and fall and break their necks
In the land of the killing fountains
Once it was god's land in the middle-ages
Now blue helmets try to stop the rage
While rocket launchers burn the sand
That's what you call the promised land
It's always one step forward and two steps back
They stumble and fall and break their necks
In the land of the killing fountains
You can kill bodies but you can't kill religion
This is the truth and peace is the fiction
In the land of the killing fountains
And millions die with a silent smile
Seven days a week and the years pass by
In the land of the killing fountains
Where the black gold flows
Where the desert wind blows
3.Cut Myself Into Pieces
15 minutes to show
And 15 more days to go
I feel like a cake and every night i cut
A piece out for you
So don't tell me that you're hungry
I know you are, but i am too
I won't tell you what i want
But i'll tell you what i won't do
Oh no
I won't cut myself into pieces
For no one
Oh no i won't do it for you
Won't cut myself into pieces
So look here, here i stand
With that cake in my hand
And hungry hearts are the only thing
That a man like me can't stand
Don't tell me that you're hungry
I know you are but i am too
I won't tell you what i want
But i'll tell you what i won't do
Oh no
I won't cut myself into pieces
For no one
Oh no i won't do it for you...
No i won't do that
Cut myself into pieces
4.Should Have Known Better
I sit in my flat watch the late night news
'bout troubles with turks and troubles with jews
Gallons of beer stream into my mouth
They've shot a prime minister
Somewhere down south
Murder in the east and murder in the west
The girl on page 3 got an oversized chest
Germany's united and fergi's got a new dress
And the man in the tele says it's blue
I should have known better
But no one told me
I should have known better
But no one told me
I'm not interested in the political scenes
Just when they raise my taxes
Cause i know what it means
But how can they say that there's
Not enough to eat
Look in my fridge it's filled with meat
Cut the womens liberation
Cut the womens education
One iron lady was enough for this nation
Might be that i don't know what i'm saying here
But i'm just interested in tele and beer
I should have known better
But no one told me
I should have known better
But no one told me
I want it all
I want it now
I want it all
I want it now
I should have known better...
5.Trapped Today, Trapped Tomorrow
The days are gone when the girls
Used to kiss his nose
To wake him up in the morning
He looks at his wife once she was young
But now she's older
Than himself and all that happend without warning
Trapped today, trapped tomorrow
Trapped in love, and trapped in sorrow
Sorry my train, won't stop at your station
Trapped today, trapped tomorrow
Trapped in love, and trapped in sorrow
Sorry my train, won't stop at your station
And no explanations
The days are gone when the boys
Used to bring her flowers every night
Just to please her
There was this man, now she's his wife.
They've got two kids
He works from 9 to 5
He put her in a freezer
Trapped today, trapped tomorrow...
6.Suspicious Signs
Say what's that thing
On your back
Well i guess it's a hair
And the hair is black
I got you on the phone
You said you're all alone
I heard these boots on the floor
And i beg you baby please no more
Suspicious signs
What do i see
Suspicious signs
Suspicious signs
Now everything's so strange
Not how it used to be
I call you up at three
And you say you can't talk to me
Say what's it all about
Why do you talk that loud
I hear your fingertips
Playing with italian hips
Suspicious signs
What do i see
Suspicious signs
Suspicious signs
7.Suspicious Jazz
Instrumental
8.Eleonore
Oh eleonore
You came the long way home
Coming with a dream
And going back alone
Oh eleonore
You have left this place
So there's no warm embrace
Just a short hello
Then turn around and go
Oh eleonore
Oh eleonore friends are hard to find
And you've left yours behind
You don't known where to stay
But that's the price you pay
Oh eleonore
It shouldn't bother me
You wanted to be free
I've known it before
Since you've closed the door
Oh eleonore
And if you turn around you see
That there is no one else but me
I guess we both know what's best so forget about the rest
Oh eleonore
You came the long way home...
9.Click Song
He sits in a room down the dead end street
Dirty old t-shirt sweating in the heat
He's got no girl and no money for a drink
No deeper way to sink
No deeper way
He was looking for a job, jobs are hard to find
Everyday the same things torture his mind
Built himself a world
To leave those troubles behind
I'm sorry that world ain't mine
I'm sorry that world ain't mine
Once we were friends but that is long ago
In 1987 i decided to go
I left him in his room down the dead end street
Now i've heard he's killed his neighbours dog
Just to have a piece of meat
And that is what i call
And that is what i call
No chance to retreat...
10.Survival Shake
This is no story it's the key of existence
A little thing you better not forget
I don't know nothing bout it's a water-resistance
Why don't you use your head
And survive, survive, survive
You got to survive
Survive, survive, survive
You got to survive
So tell me darling what you wanna be
A welcome idiot in an appletree
I shake you up and i shake you down
Down to the ground
To survive, survive, survive
You got to survive
Survive, survive
All you got to do is to survive
You just got one life
All you got to do is to survive
You just got one life
So better be careful boy
Survive, survive, survive...
11.Romantic
Little jimmy watkins wasn't ready
When the winter came
He forgot to order coats so he shivers
Just himself to blame
And the marketwives covered with blankets
I hear them shout in vain
They try to sell their southern fruits
In the icy rain
Slowly comes the wintertime
Snowflakes melting on the enginehood
And all the young girls put on their scarfs
Before they haunt their neighbourhood
So sorry that i'm romantic
So sorry that i'm romantic
Hot grey steam out of the drains
I can't see the traffic lights
And the smell of cookies and candles
Icecold stary skies
Snowballs fly around my head
And linda's laughing bright
The saucy little skater falls on his nose
And cries soon he's outta sight
Slowly comes the wintertime
Snowflakes melting on the enginehood
And all the young girls put on their scarfs
Before they haunt their neighbourhood
So sorry that i'm romantic...
12.Anthem Of The Handsome Ransom
This is the anthem of the handsome ransom...
We didn't want to cause any trouble
We just wanted them to listen to the band,
So we gave 'em a fax that said：
We have hidden a bomb in your womens toilet
If you wanna prevent the desaster
Come to the club
On the 25th to see us, but they came not
We paid 500 marks for that
Some people never heard anything 'bout jokes
This is the anthem of the handsome ransom...
Hello hartwig!
We've got the tapes of your new, fantastic band
So if you want them back
You gotta place 50.000 bucks in
The womens toilet of the teldec,
You know,
Otherwise you won't hear your band again
Cause we will erase everything
Come on hartwig
Come on
Come on...
This is the anthem of the handsome ransom...
We thought musics got
Something to do with instruments and feelings
This is not the truth!
Lawyers and money that is what counts
We sat in a boat with sharks all around us
We've tried to get rid off 'em
But when they smell money
You can't hold 'em back
So we've invented our own kind of kidnapping
We're kidnapping ourselves
And you pay the ransom
That sounds good, ha
That sounds good...
This is the anthem of the handsome ransom...
That sounds good...
This was the anthem
13.La La La La La
She is one of those downtown rats
Living with mummy in a cheesy flat
Brother's in the army and daddy's pissed off
But she forgets it all when she takes her clothes off
I'll buy you flowers instead of a ring
I won't go to church cause i can't sing
But if take me baby i'll tell you what i'll do
Every night i'll croak a special lullaby for you
Lalalalala sleep well honey...
I know your daddy wants you to stay at home
So fill up his mouth with his shaving foam
Let's go out for a ride in a brand new car
I haven't got a license but don't tell it to your ma
I'm not afraid of your brother, even if he turns red
Cause i'm bigger than him, so i spit on his head
But if you take me baby i'll tell you what i'll do
Every night i'll croak a special lullaby for you
Lalalalala sleep well honey...
You can even take my money
14.Fools
'good morning, sit down!'
Don't sing anybody's anthem
Till you know what's on his mind
Keep the little grey ones working
Don't believe them deaf and blind
Ask them questions
Ask them questions
Where when who and why
Shut up yo mama tells ya
Shut up yo mama tells ya too
Shut up yo teacher tells ya
And you're gonna be their fool
And you're gonna be their fool
And when you ask them too much
They mostly answer with a sigh
And if you do it too directly
You won't get a real reply
Ask them questions...
Shut up...
'sit down!'
15.Rain Will Fall
Well, i'm sitting in my window
Watching all the teenes
Cruising in the street
Showing their minies
And they shake what they've got
Up and down like a ball
But i know they'll stop shaking
When the rain falls...
Rain will fall...
So please don't tell me stories
'cause i know how it ends
They always say fuck off
When i take off my pants
I've got no smell of chanel
And my car is too small
But it's dry inside
So the rain can fall...
Rain will fall...
Yes i'm sure that the rain will fall...
Rain will fall...
