Little Paranoia 1. And there are people, i see every day And there are people, I talk to every day They seem to like me I seem to like them Sometimes I’m not sure about it Then a little paranoia goes through my head Then a little paranoia goes through my head 2. And when I tell these people That I am not so sure about our friendships They also show their insecurities (we all have paranoia) Then a little paranoia goes through our heads Then a little paranoia goes through our heads 3. And there are people, i see every day And there are people, I talk to every day They seem to like me I seem to like them Sometimes I’m not sure about it

White Wall 03:06
You cut every house Every room is isolation You’re both figure and ground Everything is on you and you are on everything You’re a western phenomenen White wall paper white wall paper white You’re an inspiration for all those graffiti artists You always listen Even when I stop talking I think I like you ‘cause I cannot explain why I like you my white wall, my white wall, white wall a little melody for this white wall symphony just to waste some time

Tear Shirt 02:13
time passes by and i'm not getting older as long as i stay in my room i keep my age of 25 i said 'good night' took my scarf and coat and walked home after a fight, i prefer to stay alone Ref: But my t-shirt was only a wet tearshirt, and my t-shirt was only a wet tearshirt i said 'goodbye, it is better when we don’t keep in touch you started to cry and I tried hard to keep my eyes dry Ref: and my t-shirt was only a wet tearshirt x2 time passes by and i'm not getting older and i'm wondering if it's still the same with you do you still cry when it gets a little colder?

Blind Date 03:27
I put a contact-ad in the local magazine I felt so band almost escaped in my vocal limousine And I received some letters of some men in their thirties and fourties And I’m only 25, but I think I’m really tolerant towards people in the thirties And people in the fourties and to those who were born in the seventies. And I replied with a letter to a letter that I liked Of a guy who didn’t seem to have a telephone-number. I’m not really into phone-calls, but three days later he really called, And we exchanged some words and we organized a so called, a so called Ref: blind date – three hours Talking of nervous nothing Blind date Three hours Talking ‘bout nervous nothing He had a coffee and about thirteen cigarettes I had one coffee And a sparkling water with lemon And we were talking And I was talking and I was talking And I was walking Quickly away afterwards. Refrain again!! And while we were sitting at this table in that café I couldn’t forget about that imaginery shield above our table what said: this is a blind date; these two awesome people meet for a blind date, an embarrassing blind date, an unromantic blind date oh my goodness,, those two people, they are so lonesome, ‘cause this is a blind date!!

My best friend Told me ‘bout her boyfriend And I’m wondering why they’re still together ‘cause he treats her like a piece of pizza and I’m wondering why they’re still together REF: that’s the mystery of love nothing can be said with certainty it’s the mystery of love explanations fail in mystery my neighbour tells me ‘bout his girlfriend and I’m wondering why they’re still together ‘cause she has a second second boyfriend and I’m wondering why they’re still together and when I’m talking to my boyfriend I might wonder why we’re still together ‘cause we don’t talk too much and I might wonder why we’re still together

Ref: :Science is over I’ll join scientology: Your last exam is like A flight to Las Vegas Homesickness just Makes me travel Like a rebel Ref: :Science is over I’ll join scientology: They like you disorders So don’t mind the borders Keep gazing your shoes And dance the blues

Crocodile 02:38
And i’m asking you Almost three times a day If you still love me Is that okay? And you try hard to make me believe you say yes, of course and make me a tea and if I had to compare you with an animal you would surely be some reptile so calm and clever both slow and quick you would surely be a crocodile Refrain: I would like to have your teeth and your patience Like a crocodile I would like to have your thick crunchy skin Like a crocodile I would like to have your sense of logic You’re my crocodile the city is tiring a jungle for kids but we will get older and so do my tits I like it when you Cook me guinea pigs With a bowel of rice And fresh picked figs Your jaws always open They pretend to be shut By a set of muscles hide in tropical mud Refrain: I would like to have your teeth and your patience Like a crocodile I would like to have your thick crunchy skin Like a crocodile I would like to have your sense of logic You’re my crocodile I would like to lead the life of a reptile Of a crocodile

Happy 02:41
life just hurts even when I’m happy you don’t know anything about me life just hurts even when I’m with you you you don’t nothing at all life just hurts even whe I’m sleeping I don’t sleep at all Ref: Happy and I can’t believe that I’m happy And keep this state for seven days now, happy Life just hurts, even when I’m smiling/laughing Jokes are, jokes just just are Life just hurts, especially when I’m with You just need my smile Ref: Happy and I can’t believe that I’m happy and I keep this state for seven days now Whooo happy..
