1 - THE OTHER FOOL (Sæther)
Although the time is never right
it's only ever clear at night
her teeth looked like plastic when I peaked
There's tumors right behind their eyes
their poison tongue tell only lies
there's blood on the hands that feed and I
swear I saw a tattoo on her thigh
Flies are buzzin' 'round my head
living grey and dreaming red
the wrong track?
it's the only one I know
I watch them run all hyped and wired
smell their fear and sense how tired
the words are -
the hive has lost it's brain
it doesn't even seem to sense the pain
Knick knack paddywhack
give the dog a bone
running with the pack
getting wasted, getting ...
Chrystal candy, bad tattoos
diet Coke and Disney blues
I'm so tired
kick off in the void
let's get some weed and chill out to Pink Floyd

2 - THE SAILBOAT SONG (Sæther)
And as I leave the harbour
with the wind in my sails
The deep blue ocean rolling patiently
And every wave reminds me
of the tremors of her flesh
as she came with me
I love the sea!

3 - JOHNNY FINDS THE LEAK (Sæther)
Johnny awoke with a -
and was totally freaked
found the hole and fixed it and stopped the leak
Johnny was nimble
jacked up real quick
only in dreams Johnny never woke up sick
all the guys were cheering, and all the dolls they smiled
and secretly they all wanted to have his child
Johnny was part of a long and proud tradition
of seers and seekers and princes who sought their visions
where butterfly nimble ideas came superhumanly quick
and all the players had habits they couldn't kick
all the guys were cheering, and all the dolls they smiled
while up on the bandstand Johnny went hogwild
Johnny awoke with a -
and was totally freaked
found the hole and fixed it and stopped the leak
Johnny was nimble
jacked up real quick
only in dreams johnny never woke up sick
all the guys were cheering, and all the dolls went wild
while up on the bandstand Johnny lost his smile...

JUMPIN' FLASHBACK (Gebhardt, Sæther)
...and there you're stumblin' down the street
tryin' to keep up on your feet
going for a short climb, baby?
d'ya wanna have some more time, maybe?
and you pulled rabbits from my hat
gave me elephant shoes
you wanted me to join you
in your elephant blues
another dive going down the wrong drive
another dive going down the wrong drive
try to keep away the big eyes baby
join 'em in their big lies, maybe?
and me who never took that chance
joined you in that dance
but there's a fire in my head
which will light up you instead
gimme that elephant shoe
and let me join your elephant blues
and you pulled rabbits from my hat
gave me elephant shoes
you wanted me to join you
in your elephant blues
another dive going down the wrong drive
another dive going down the wrong drive
I had another dive going down the wrong drive
another dive going down the wrong drive

look at him grovel - humble, humble
look at him smooch his way inside
check out the styling - sexy, sexy
starstruck enjoying every inch of the ride
star star star
star star star
star star star star star
the power of ballads on formated DJ's
the smell of the green as the units soar
up with a bullet, down with the 'boppers
safe in the knowledge that much needs more
star star star
star star star
star star star star star
go international - billboard, billboard
A & R chieftains with gold plated cards
coked to the eyeballs - units, units
"lead 'em to water, these idiot bards"
star star star

star star star star star
the limeys adored him, and so did the frenchies,
loved in the US and loved by the krauts
he was the greatest - shining, shining
too bad the smack made his teeth fall out
star star star
he was a real star star star
star star star star star
star star star star star
