But Not Another Winter

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah ooh-ooh
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
 
I walk every day
Through the street that own and have
I get back
And you ask me, ”so, are you ready yet?”
Give me flowers on balconies
Give me dope and Ketobemidon
Give me everything that will make me happy
2025 plans
Science fiction novels
Give me Third World War on a plate
 
But not another winter
But not another winter
 
I strike a blow
I have landed and on my way away from here
It goes back to the election
Go on and get a sub
Give me boot stomping in the streets
Fire at the embassies
And squares that are filled with hate
Give me techno-. Pluto-crater
Sovereign oligarchs
Those that are lying when they come in peace
 
But not another winter
But not another winter
 
Spring flowers in the trees
Faith and things under control
Everything much closer
Swan stomping on the lake
Beat music in my ears
Sun in my nights
It will be summer and we'll come, oh oh
 
Now we'll forget it was winter
Now we'll forget it was winter
Now we'll forget it was winter
Now we'll forget it was winter
 
Spring flowers in the trees
Faith and things under control
Everything much closer
Swan stomping on the lake
Beat music in my ears
Sun in my nights
It will be summer and we'll come, oh oh
 
I walk every day
Through the streets it's my human shower
I'm left with
Tell me after post war comes what?
 
Then another winter comes
Then another winter comes
 
Everything much closer
Sun in my nights
It's coming, it will be summer
It's coming, it will be summer and winter
Everything much closer
Sun in my nights
It's coming, it will be summer
But not another winter
 

How Beautifully It Can Rain

I got your letter yesterday
And you wrote so beautifully
You wrote about the movies we watched
As we lay there
Pretending that we were in them
 
That is how beautifully it can rain
That is how beautifully it can rain
That is how beautifully it can rain
That is how beautifully it can rain
 
We drank your win yesterday
And very quietly, we sang
A song about the words which were important as we fell
Can you imagine that you can fall that beautifully?
 
That is how beautifully it can rain
 
I wonder about today, about in a year, the way it's going, let's just lay down a bit
Let me follow you into a dream against an ocean and a sun which never sets
 
That is how beautifully it can rain
That is how beautifully it can rain
How beautifully can it rain?
It can rain just as beautifully as that

Cohiba Zanzibar

Wasted Summer days, it's Autumn now
The sun is evening red
I received a memo from a friend yesterday
Did you lose your fire within?
 
And the hope we took from your eyes
And the smile which fell from your cheek
And the language we got when we were naked
It reminds me of Cohiba Zanzibar
 
The red wine hour steals our best years
Gets far too close to me
The best place for us to eat is the bar, tell us where
They play Dans & Lær1
 
Blackbird, stay away from my eyes
Like the sparrow which fell at my hand
And the language we got when we were naked
It reminds me of Cohiba Zanzibar
 
One of these days at The Sad One
Faustus sang about torment until the end
 
The abyssal rose blooms in your hair
And it reminds me of Cohiba Zanzibar

They All Want To Know Where To Go

You'll become alone, entirely on your own
You're full of lies, a waste of time
Save your tears, and wipe the tears from your eyes
You know the way
 
The day has passed, and what did you get done?
Nothing went up,1 and everything goes down
We get what we give, if you take much more
You'll have to forget about love
 
Above the water, under the street again
On a bench in the park, they all want to know where to go
 
They all want to know where to go (x4)
 
He's alone, she's alone
And the light is beautiful in the evening
I'm hearing a child's voice
So beautiful and fine and pure and gentle
 
Through the nation and down the street again
On a bench in the park, they all want to know where to go
 
They all want to know where to go (x4)
 
Through the city with the last guests
Down the street, if you dare to follow
You'll find me
 
They all want to know where to go
 
Through the city with the last guests
Down the street, if you dare to follow
You'll find me
 
They all want to know where to go

The Substitute

You'll never come back
Says my drunk friend
Time's to expensive and that chord
No one quite understands it
 
And sure, just call me whenever
I know what homework the kids
Have due tomorrow, I'm letting the light in
But never to stay
 
It's an open battle on a straight country road
With faith and hope in a traffic mirror
I'm sure they'll call tomorrow, you'll see
I'm waiting, I'm waiting
 
You're hitting the wave once more
Says my loyal friend
The sky is colouring the ground black now, and we're so far
From the Summer of 1985
 
It's an open battle on a straight country road
With faith and hope in a traffic mirror
You'll see
 
But at the place where the sun is hitting your cheek
A hope is born
 
About a open road in this street fight
Molotov cocktails, this bomb of a boy's dream
I'm sure it'll explode tomorrow, you'll see
I'm waiting, I'm waiting
