Night Sun (1972, Germany) 4 songs

(Source of image: psychedelicbabymag.com)

Night Sun "Got A Bone Of My Own"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Mournin' "

Get off of my little spark of life

Get off to the long wide decay

Get off, look why'd you break my soul

Get off, you know I've got a bone just of my own

Move out, I've always been the other side

Move out, don't need anyone

Move out, just want to stay alone

Move out, you know I've got a bone of my own

---------------------------------------------

Night Sun "Blind"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Mournin' "

I'm blind to all beautiful things 

And I'm deaf to all flowing sounds

I feel pain and love together

And I taste tears and I taste blood 

I see the craving of the rich

And I hear the callous judge of the fate 

I feel how love turns into hate

But I don't really, I don't really know the key

 

I know of the joy of the fall

And I know the grief and harmony and peace 

I see that money rules the world

While your love must not be the key

---------------------------------------------

Night Sun "Slush Pan Man"

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Mournin' "

[** I don't recommend drugs as solution of problems.

Want to forewarn about mechanisms, consequences of addiction]

Come on with me 

And I'll make 

Your illusions real

Come on with me

And you'll see 

The best thing you can do

Come on with me

Forget that world

Forget your soulless problems

Come on with me

Said the slush pan man

And I'll start with LSD

If he lures you outside

He'll give you more and more

Spreading, oh

I'm on the edge

The needle pricks your veins

He sells things 

That fuck your mind

And, oh, the feeling

It is so great

But if you're needling more 

You might be in just too late

Come on with me

And I'll make

Your illusions real

Come on with me

And you'll see

It's the only thing to do

Come on with me

Forget that world

Forget your soulless problems

Come on with me

Said the slush pan man

The needle pricks your veins

---------------------------------------------

Night Sun "Come Down"

(lyrics found and modified)

* From album: "Mournin' "

When high upon a groovy day

You'll swear you felt it come your way

Get, try to touch it, free or hold

Forgive me if I seem to bode

It's nothing new, it's nothing old

The joy in life is inside you

Hey, there are upstairs on your cloud

Wrapped up in your smoky shroud

Beneath your inner real abyss

Awaits a trip you may have missed

Check it out when you'll go down

Peek through the corners of hole tell

When high upon a groovy day

You'll swear you felt it come your way

Get, try to touch it, free or hold

Forgive me if I seem to bode

It's nothing old, babe, it's nothing new

The joy in life is inside you

When high upon a groovy day

You'll swear you felt it come your way

Get, try to touch it, free or hold

Forgive me if I seem to bode

It's nothing old, it's nothing new

The joy in life is inside you

Perhaps Next Tide "Back To My Lady"

(lyrics found and bit modified)

* From album: "Back To My Lady" (EP)

Listen to your ways of calling

Going straight to what you're feeling

And love is there

I won't let myself be dying

Well, I'm coming back to my lady

Sometimes down and sometimes higher

We all want to shed the might

And that’s all right

Don't believe your thoughts of fire

Well, I'm coming back to my lady

I'm coming back to my lady

Children singing with warning

Teach you more than all the stories

And anyway

Mind is dead and caught you feeling

Well, I'm coming back to my lady

I'm coming back to my lady

I'm coming back to my lady, lady, lady, lady

I'm coming back to my lady

(Source of image: sinistersaladmusikal.wordpress.com)

Steel Mill "Blood Runs Deep"

 (lyrics found and modified)

* From album: "Green Eyed God"

Running for your life

Got to run like hell

So you are a killer

May the devil wish you well

And you were a gypsy

Followed, on the run

All the curse you're coming

Cause you took away a bun

[Living on your wits

Sleeping where you can

Say you killed your father

Hear him shouting as he ran

Fear the morning sun

Covered like a rat

Gonna crush your body

Some before they take you back

You for the gallows

Blood runs deep

You'll die so slowly

Blood runs deep] 2x

Black book in hand

Held the white-collared holy man

Pleads with his eyes

[And asked with perverted pride] 2x

[Take me along for the ride] 3x

Well, take me along for the ride

Blood runs deep...

---------------------------------------------

Steel Mill "Green Eyed God"

 (lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Green Eyed God"

Green-eyed god in the midnight sun

In the north say he's the one

If you believe you lost the right

Surrender to him, give up your fight

Preacher Mr. Haste is nowhere to get down

Turn your pockets out, he might be underground

Mouth the words this song's, somebody turned around

Flashing faces laced up on a bloody ground

Preacher Mr. Haste, his love has never grown

Takes his crooked life to serve his god alone

Speaks his vile tongue and moves his evil bone

He crossed his evil thoughts, he knows the place that he's born

We fought the hand grenade, with bullets, steel and blade

Get a bomb too near us, believe he'll fear us

He takes his crooked life and makes an evil sign

His neck is in a noose, no chance of getting loose

His body in casket laid, poor Mr. Haste is dead

His blood is proof he ain't, his green-eyed god's the same

[God, you're a part of me] 4x

(lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Tapiman"

I get no chance in my way

I don't know why but it's real

Only I get something right

This is your love that tonight

Since the first day I've seen you, babe

Your body, your smile, and your smell so crave

Realized that you've changed my life

Because now I feel like the sunrise

Feel so high

You're my chance, my chance

By myself] 2x

I get no chance in my way

I don't know why but it's real

Realized that you've changed my life

Because now I feel like the sunrise

You're my chance, my chance

Feel so high

You're my chance, my chance

By myself

In a while I'll be in a dream

With my ear turned to the machine

Remember the good times

Gone up to the blue

Remember the good times

How we set in blue my mind

Metal sounds of vital streams

Streams of fire relaxing so still

Have you heard the thunder? 

Scream to begin

Have you heard the thunder? 

The organ screams so wild and sweet

Wish I'll be with them again

Old friends, old friends 

Come back

In a while I'll be in a dream

With my ears turned to the machine

Remember the good times

Gone up to the blue

Remember the good times

Elonkorjuu "Unfeeling"

(lyrics found)

* From album: "Harvest Time"

One morning, I get up to the cold floor

Walk by the mirror and praise my red eyes

See through my head how empty it is

How many years I've tried to fill it

Now

Know use

Know how that use

I never became a learned fool

Nobody cares, nobody grieves with me

Those machines called people, they don't feel

[Just walking around without having no goal] 2x

When I was just looking on

[Just walking around without having no goal] 2x

Nobody cares, nobody grieves with me

They just do what they have been planned for

Running for money is what they can do

Never mind if we good or bad

When I was just looking on

[Lord hasn't given you an imagination] 2x

One morning, I get up to the cold floor

Walk by the mirror and praise my red eyes

See through my head how empty it is

How many years I've tried to fill it 

Now

Know use

Know how that use

I never became a learned fool

Grupa Stress "Konfiteor"

(lyrics found and bit modified)

* From album: "Nagrania Radiowe Z Lat 1972-1979"

Przeze mnie cierpi świat

Grzech pierworodny

Tu przyszli, gdzie był step 

Rozległy, głodny

Otworzą oczy i 

Czekają cudu

Szukają śladów, ksiąg 

Najmędrsi z ludu

Przeze mnie cierpi ptak

Trzepiąc skrzydłami

Na drodze leży ktoś 

Bez swego domu

Przeze mnie stanął czas

Robiąc złudzenia

Rośliny więdną już 

W skalnym załomie

A wyście dali mnie 

Żyć tu na ziemi

Przeze mnie syczy gad

Na liche głazy

W załomie każdym śpią 

Prastare cienie

Przeze mnie pęka głaz 

Na pstre kamienie

Przeze mnie człowiek w pniu

Lub las przemieni

A wyście dali mnie

Żyć tu na ziemi

Gomorrha "I Turned To See Whose Voice It Was"
(lyrics found)

* From album: "I Turned To See Whose Voice It Was"

** Lyrics inspired by: The Book Of Revelation /
Apocalypse of St. John

I turned to see whose voice 

It was that spoke to me

And when I turned I saw

Seven standing lamps of gold

And among the lamps
One like a Son of Man

Robed down to his feet

With a golden girdle round his breast 

The hair of his head
Was white as snow white wool

And his eyes 

Flamed like fire

His feet gleamed like burnished brass
Refined in furnace

And his voice was like
The sound of rushing waters

In his right hand
He held seven stars

And out of his mouth
Came a sharp two-edged sword

[And his face shone
Like a sun in full strength] 3x

When I saw him

I fell at his feet as though dead

But he laid his right hand

Upon me and said

Do not be afraid- I am the First and the Last

And I am the living one

For I was dead
And now I am alive forevermore

And I hold the keys of

Death and death's domain

 Wicked Lady "I'm A Freak" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Psychotic Overkill"
** Recorded-1972, Released-1994

No ones knows the way that I feel

Life today seems so unreal

All thoughts turn from white to black

Well, leave your number, I'll call you back

I'm a freak baby on a losing streak

And I'm coming after you

Through the night and through the day

Well, things don't seem to go my way

The Boss Man always seems to shout

The gates are locked, there's no way out

I'm a freak baby on a losing streak

And I'm coming after you

My Father says that I'm a fool

Well, he always seems to lose his cool

I don't think I know right from wrong

Well, I think I'm gonna be a politician

'Cause I'm a freak baby on a losing streak

And I'm coming after you

---------------------------------------------

Wicked Lady "Why Don't You Let Me Try" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Psychotic Overkill"
** Recorded-1972, Released-1994

Look through my window

What do you see

A broken man sitting all alone

The sun don't shine on me

And I should worry and I could cry

I should do a lot of things baby

Why don't you let me try

You can give me shelter

But that's not what I need

You can give me money

Won't help me with my greed

I should worry and I could cry

I could do a lot of things baby

Why don't you let me try

You can turn the heat on

That would keep me warm

And we could stay together

Till the light of dawn

I could love you or I could lie

I could do a lot of things baby

Why don't you let me try 

I could love you, I could cry

[I could do a lot of things baby

Why don't you let me try] 2x

* From album: "Psychotic Overkill"
** Recorded-1972, Released-1994

I've been livin' in sin city

On the wrong side of the town

Said I've been livin' in sin city

On the wrong side of the town

Where nobody wants to know ya

They just wanna put you down

Well I've been livin' fast and easy

Doin' things that I shouldn't do

Said I've been livin' fast and easy

Doin' things that I shouldn't do

I think I'm gonna change my ways

I keep comin' back to you

Alright

Living's not been easy

When you're a loser life is tough

Well I said living's not been easy

When you're a loser life is tough

Gonna stop my runnin' 'round now

Cause I think my body’s had enough

I've been livin' in sin city

On the wrong side of the town

Said I've been livin' in sin city

On the wrong side of the town

Where nobody wants to know ya

They just wanna put you down

Wicked Lady "Passion" (lyrics found)
* From album: "Psychotic Overkill"
** Recorded-1972, Released-1994

You say you're in a hurry 

To the things you've got to do

You say you want to leave me 

I put a curse on you

I know you think it's over

I can see it in your eyes

But there's something you must understand

You can't have love without your lies

So let's talk passion baby

Let's talk deep desire

Tell me that you love me

And I won't throw your grandma on the fire

You say you're planning for your future

There is something you should know

If you really want to hurt me

Just give a V sign as you go

Everybody needs somebody

Everybody needs a hand

So come on and let me love you

It's the one thing we both understand, so

Let's talk passion baby

Let's talk deep desire

Tell me that you love me

And I won't throw your grandma on the fire

You say you're in a hurry 

To the things you've got to do

You say you want to leave me

I put a curse on you

Everybody needs somebody

Everybody needs a car

I'm gonna tie you to a satellite

And worship you from afar

Let's talk passion baby

Let's talk deep desire

Tell me that you love me

And I won't throw your grandma on the fire

I know you think it's over

I can see it in your eyes

But there's something you must understand

You can't have love without your lies

So let's talk passion baby

Let's talk deep desire

Tell me that you love me

And I won't throw your grandma on the fire

(Source of image: discogs.com)

Jerusalem "Frustration" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Jerusalem"

Tell me how you feel

Tell me love is real

Tell me what to do

Anything for you

Things you said are on my mind

I know it's gonna take some time

To find out what I know is true

I'm in love with you

If you don't wanna know

Tell me and I'll go

I don't really mind

I don't have the time

See you've got your man

Picked the worst you can

I told you who was who

Now it's up to you

I needn't worry about myself

I've found a way to get off the shelf

The girl I've found is something new

It's too late for you

Once I needed you

You hadn't got a clue

And now it's all okay

A pity you can't stay

Hey, girl, will you never learn?

Who do you think you're fooling 

with your lying and your crying?

You'll only be happy 

the day you see me dying

Oh yeah, that's the way it happens sometimes

None of us got love, all right

You know all the times and all the crimes 

that you've given me

When you're older and everything's over

maybe then you will see

I'm a man who does what he can 

to find some peace of mind

And all you can do 

is be untrue and to be so unkind

Be good to me, just treat me right

Tell me how you feel

Tell me love is real

Tell me what to do

Anything for you

Things you said are on my mind

I know it's gonna take some time

To find out what I know is true

I'm in love with you

If you don't wanna know

Tell me and I'll go

I don't really mind

I don't have the time

Jerusalem "Beyond The Grave" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Jerusalem"

Love me till the grass dies on my grave

Love me till the earth rots my bones

For by then we shall have been joined

And new life will have crossed my loins

Someday we shall meet again

But death is only a minute's pain

Eternity carries forth the fire of love

That shall be fully sapped by us

And my love, my grave will become just a spot

To mark a place where I once was

A hole in which a shell of mine was lost

Now we are joinеd in a place that is new

Life is lifе in which we are two

Come what may, we'll have time to play

And make love May after May

Year after year, our bodies will meet

Continually joyful love will be sweet

Man and wife will easily be lost

And bodies will glitter like fields of frost

Like fields of frost

Jerusalem "Midnight Steamer" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Jerusalem"

In the dawn of the evening

The boat has come to transport you

Three hooded sirens are your crew

Your captain is a skeleton

[Just come on] 2x

[Come on in, the water's fine] 2x

[And the midnight steamer appears on time] 2x

In the dawn of the evening

People make love to make death

Your coffin is on a cabin shеlf

Your journey is very long

[Just come on] 2x

[Come on in, the water's fine] 2x

[And the midnight steamer appears on time] 2x

In the dawn of the evening

A passage is reserved for you

The boat has come to transport you

You just can't linger on

[Just come on] 2x

[Come on in, the water's fine] 2x

[And the midnight steamer appears on time] 2x

Jerusalem "Murderer's Lament" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Jerusalem"

Here I sit, I'm very sad

Am I really going mad?

They never seem to notice me

I'm all alone, you see

It doesn't matter how I try

Women seem to pass me by

Now the time begins to fly

I'm lonely

When the night comes, I must go

Loneliness has become my foe

Must find that woman who is best

Lay her first, then break her neck

That dirt that walks the streets

Until some lonely man she meets

Then degrades him till he weeps

Then kicks him back into the street

Pretty flowers, I waste the hours

Watching birds go by, see the birdies fly

Hiding from the law, hiding in this straw

See the pointed hats coming down the track

My heart begins to race, will they find this place?

A hand upon my head, I know that I am dead, I'm dead

---------------------------------------------

Jerusalem "When The Wolf Sits" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Jerusalem"

It's the time of night

When the wolf sits alone and howls to the moon

It's the time of night

When a man walks alone and ponders his doom

It's the time for looking around

To see who's waiting for you

You need a lover, I need a trip

We need each other, before we slip

Into another dawn, into another morning

Just like today and the day before

In fact, I don't know what I'm looking for right now

It's the time of night

When you look to see whose head is on your pillow

It's the time of night

When you should be high but you are really low

It's the time for looking forward

To see where you can go

You need a lover, I need a trip

We need each other, before we slip

Into another dawn, into another morning

Just like today and the day before

In fact, I don't know what I'm looking for right now

It's the time of night

When a man says to you "When did you die?"

It's the time of night

When the smile on her face makes you cry

It's the time for looking back

And to wonder why

You need a lover, I need a trip

We need each other, before we slip

Into another dawn, into another morning

Just like today and the day before

In fact, I don't know what I'm looking for right now

---------------------------------------------

Jerusalem "She Came Like A Bat From Hell" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Jerusalem"

Well, I recall long ago

How she came like a bat from hell

Like the sun, like the moon

She came like a bat from hell

She was fire, she was desire

She came like a bat from hell

I stalked and I caught

She came like a bat from hell

Wwe grew like so few

She came like a bat from hell

We will, we shall

She came like a bat from hell

She was the queen of the magic isle

Who came to eat my heart away

She filled me up with all her lies

And then returned down Satan's way

When she left, I wished her well

My lady who was born in hell

Then I saw the blood on my hand

Knew I was destined for Satan's land

Well, I recall long ago

How she came like a bat from hell

Like the sun, like the moon

She came like a bat from hell

She was fire, she was desire

She came like a bat from hell

I stalked and I caught

She came like a bat from hell

We grew like so few

She came like a bat from hell

We will, we shall

She came like a bat from hell

Phoenix "Nunta" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Cei Ce Ne-au Dat Nume"

Bine-i mirelui

Ca nu-i nime-n lume ca mireasa lui

Uita-te la ea

Rupta e din cer si mandra ca o stea

Mai ce-om mai juca

Si ce-om mai canta

Ce-om mai rupe la opinci

Si-om face gropi adanci

Dara nu ne vom opri

Pana in zori de zi

Nasii mirelui

Le duc fraga, grana campului

Iara nasii ei

Roua norilor si florile de tei

Mai ce-om mai juca

Si ce-om mai canta

Ce-om mai rupe la opinci

Si-om face gropi adanci

Dara nu ne vom opri

Pana in zori de zi

Bine-i mirelui

Ca nu-i nime-n lume ca mireasa lui

Uita-te la ea

Rupta e din cer si mandra ca o stea

Phoenix "Vara" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Cei Ce Ne-au Dat Nume"

Dorm lanurile coapte
dorm șoaptele de dor

Lin curge peste noapte
mut visul călător

Doarme toropit pământul
și visează ploaia și vântul

Buzele-i sunt adânc crăpate
apa o caută în vis însetate

Lungi nopțile de nalbe,
lungi nopțile calde

Fug limpede izvoare,
fug razele de soare

Ochiul caută mut imprejur
umbra deasa-a codrului cel sur

Dar peste întreg pământul
vara și-a întins cald trupul

Sus, cerul e-mpietrit,
sus norii au pierit

Jos, fructele se coc cu spor
in luna lui cuptor

Ochiul caută mut imprejur
umbra deasa-a codrului cel sur

Dar peste întreg pământul
vara și-a întins cald trupul

Dorm lanurile coapte,
dorm șoaptele de dor

Lin curge peste noapte
mut visul călător

Doarme toropit pământul
și visează ploaia și vântul

Buzele-i sunt adânc crăpate
apa o caută în vis însetate

Svanfridur "What Now You People Standing By"
(lyrics found)

* From album: "What's Hidden There?"

When a nation does have to suffer

Because of an unjust rule

When a nation does have to suffer

Because of a system cruel

It’s bleeding wounds will heal some day

No matter what you’ll say

Making this dream coming true

Will be the future of you

When a nation does have to suffer

Because of an unjust rule

When a nation does have to suffer

Because of a system cruel

The people’s power will be the task

Instead of an evil mask

Making this dream coming true

Will be the future of you

[What now you people standing by

Come now, you’ll soon be flying high] 2x

Way up high

When a nation’s thrown off its burden

Quit being a tyrant’s tool

When a nation’s thrown off its burden

Act in it bloody cool

Now all ideals so much longed for

Can exist like the mighty lore

Confiding in the people’s choice

Is now the singing voice

[What now you people standing by

Come now, you’ll soon be flying high] 2x

Way up high

When a nation’s caught in a trap

For trusting the image of man

When a nation’s caught in a trap

All feels as the devil’s ban

What now you people standing by

Come now or nation’s gonna die

What now you people standing by

Gift "You'll Never Be Accepted" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Gift"

I walked along through a desert sand

The sun was really burning

And when I'm dry I'll understand

That water we must earn

My heart is filled with a real great pain

When I see the whole world laughing

'Cause things I do in my inner vain

Seems to them only nothing

These few lines I just told to you

I wrote them when I was fourteen

Just now I see they got reality

How long it last we'll see

My heart is filled with a real great pain

When I see the whole world laughing

'Cause things I do in my inner vain

Seems to them only nothing

[My heart is filled with a real great pain] 2x

These few lines I just told to you

I wrote them when I was fourteen

Just now I see they got reality

How long it last we'll see

I walked along through a desert sand

The sun was really burning

Gift "Drugs" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Gift"

I want you to see

That drugs destroy your health and kill your body

Yes, it's a real fact

That drugs do split your mind and seize your thinking

Ask yourself

If it's wrong or right

Ask yourself

Perhaps it's wrong

Look inside yourself

You must realize the world around you

Many lovely things

Can show you how nice the world around you is?

Ask yourself

If it's wrong or right

Ask yourself

Perhaps it's wrong

If you want to take it

No one of us all will sentence your deed

'Cause at last we know

It's your turn to spill your humanity

Ask yourself

If it's wrong or right

Ask yourself

Perhaps it's wrong

Gift "Game Of Skill" (lyrics found and bit modified)

* From album: "Gift"

Last night when I walked along the street

I thought about the girls and their attraction

Listen friend, listen to my words

It's not easy to keep them by your side

I had enough girls in my bygone life

To tell you things that no one ever told you

To keep girls and to be not afraid

Is everytime a serious game of skill

[For love is only a feeling

Feeling for your girl

Do you think about the time

You were together?] 2x

Tell me my friends: Have you ever had a girl? No

So listen to my words 

If you mean it's easy to keep them by your side

Then it's not right

For love is only a feeling

A feeling for your girl

Don't look at the other girls

So maybe she sets free

One day you will come to know the girl

That wants to stay and keep you by the chain

You think you've finished finally the game

But wait- after marriage you'll continue game of skill

Eugene Carnan "On Your Mind" (lyrics self-transcribed)

* From album: "Eugene Carnan"

 

I wanna know what you think of me 

Is this the way that I'm supposed to be? 

I think it is because you are blind 

I wanna know just what's on your mind 

On your mind 

Tell me the things that I want to know 

I can't believe that you love me so 

It is the truth or are you lying?

I wanna know just what's on your mind 

On your mind 

On your mind 

I thought it over, don't you run away 

You told me yesterday that you would stay 

But now you're gone and you're so unkind 

Cause I wanna know just what's on your mind 

On your mind

You say you're pure like a child 

But you're a woman in the high 

What was in your body was all mine

Cause I wanna know just what's on your mind

On your mind

Reaction "What's Going On Around?" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Reaction"

Driving in my car

Hear a voice coming on the radio

Keep telling me some things 

About the evil in the world I've got to know

Say "Hey, man

Know how many people have to die today

'Cause you don't care, you don't care

And everybody's made it his own way"

Watching my TV

Every time I see today's realities

Men fighting in the street, policemen give and beat

Well, that's enough for me

I see very nice people 

To look at good when they're hеre

See very bad peoplе 

People we do hate and fear

Reading my paper

Hey, man, know what's going on

I know what's going on 

But I don't know where it's coming from

Well is it my fault? Is it your fault? 

Well, take good care

All we've got to do

Try to solve our problems everywhere, we've got to

---------------------------------------------

Reaction "Time" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Reaction"

Futile world 

Will fade away 

[Like the wind

To never stay all day 2x]

Like the flower

Hardly grown

[Turned the head down 

To the well-known ground 2x]

Like the wave

Which just arrived

[Takes its way back 

To the whites of sea 2x]

Father Time 

Will take away 

The beauty that some happy days 

Have known

He'll take it back

And leave you on your own

So my friend 

Use your time

Think and act the way 

It's fine for you

Use your time

Before it's uses you

Bodkin "Plastic Man" (lyrics found)

* From album: "Bodkin"

Illusions that fill your mind

Reality's so hard to find

Don't you worry, it's only in a dream

Ain't so bad as it used to be

But it's allright that you feel that way

They go away

Nightmares that you had before

Come when they can, when you close the door

There's a jar, a Plastic Man

Fill your mind a hundred times around

But now you're happy in your heart

Because you know that dream won't start

Until the night, when the darkness falls

Plastic Man your mind recalls

But it's allright, now that you know 

It's just a dream

Those illusions that once filled your mind

Those realities that were hard to find

But now you don't worry, you know it's only a dream

And ain't so bad as it used to be

November "Runt I Cirklar"

*From album: "6:e November" (lyrics found)

Dom finns överallt

Men dom syns knappt ända

Dom gömmer sig bakom varandra

Och vad som än händer

SA skyndar dom på

Ger sej aldrig nån tid att stanna

Jag undrar om dom verkligen

Vet vad dom vill

Vad det är dom egentligen har för sej

Dom har väl knappt märkt

Att dom faktiskt står still

Att det bara är fötterna som rör sej

Runt, runt I cirklar

Runt, runt I cirklar

Stanna upp

Och se dej omkring

Ser du nu

Hur dom lurat dej

För att du ska passa in

Jag undrar om dom verkligen

Vet vad dom vill

Vad det är dom egentligen har för sej

Dom har väl knappt märkt

Att dom faktiskt står still

Att det bara är fötterna som rör sej

Runt, runt I cirklar

Runt, runt I cirklar

Runt, runt I cirklar

November "Starka Tillsammans"

*From album: "6:e November" (lyrics found)

Dom vill att man ska tro att allting är bra

Så länge man kan klara sej ensam

Men att kunna klara sej utan nån hjälp 

Betyder att man måste ha pengar

Vi tror inte längre på nåt av det dom sagt 

Vi har hittat nya vägar

Och aldrig mer ska nån få bestämma vår takt

Och aldrig mer ska nån av oss va ensam

Vi är starka

Starka tillsammans

Vi är starka. Vi är starka

Starka tillsammans

Tidningsman, vad har du gjort idag? 

Har du sett dig själv i spegeln?

Herr Riksdagsman, kom ut ur ditt skal 

Och visa mej om du kan dansa

[Vi är starka

Starka tillsammans]...

Säg att ni är med mig
