Ugly World At 9:00 A.M.  »»  »

It's an ugly world at 9:00 A.M.
It's an ugly world everyday
It's an ugly world at 9:00 A.M.
It's an ugly world everywhere



Travels Without Moving  »»  »

Blast open the walls and take away what you want,
it's all yours
There is no proprietorship more important than the grip
of my soul
You think I'm confused but, don't you know I've always refused
to stay on Earth
'till the day of my last breath?

Search for me in space, it's a very lonely place
and I'm so blind...
But surely I'll get there without moving from my chair
Just with my mind
With the strength of my mind



Sunday   »»  »

Call the doctor of spirit
There's a big hole inside me
Spreads its darkness over my bed
making me wish not to get up

Can't you feel the bitter smell?
Something in the air tells that's Sunday

Let's go to the park for a walk
See the roses getting old
Read a book close to the window
The weather man said it's gonna rain

Boredom is a golden rule
There's nothing we can do this Sunday

It doesn't feel like yesterday
when we had so many things to say,
but now...

I'm not going to move from my room
so this Sunday will go by
It will leave a taste of cliché
Another crevice in my heart

Today is the best day of the year
to go off and disappear
It's Sunday



I'm Bored With Rock'n'Roll   »»  »

I'm bored with rock'n'roll and rock'n'roll is bored with me
I'm sick of seeing guys with macho-look and a heavy riff

Blessed those who sing in Spanish 'cause they will inherit the mainstream
I'm bored with rock'n'roll and rock'n'roll is bored with me



Outsider   »»  »

In the long still night
Under a limpid sky
With a joint in my hand

On the first floor
In my untidy room
Visions never end

I'm cluttered up with smoke
that wrappes around me like a cloak

I turn on my lava lamp
and I let my demons free
I reach out and touch the sky
and lions eat in my hands
and smoke gets in my eyes
as the good old song foretold
and I cut across the field that
keeps me away from unreal



Through Your Eyes   »»  »

What will you do when outside your window all the world changes?
And what will happen if we become strangers?
It will come the day that you won't recognize your face, neither mine
Must we suffer the tyranny of time?
And what about the moment in which your house falls apart rusty and rotten?
Isn't true that knoledge is frozen?
And while I think like this raindrops fall over the street, the afternoon is dying
and I look at the little boy that's running

Only through your eyes can I see
Only through your eyes
But how much time will they last?
How much time?



Moonsickness   »»  »

You're a crazy piper at the gates of sunset
Your cold bitter kisses are masters of the tides
You're the eyewitness of my evil sorrow
You're a hanging spirit, you're the usher of the sky
Your amazing paleness is a milky hammer
You're the whispering mirror, you're my favourite satellite
with cryptographical smile
Prayer with one foot in the grave
You're the only thing that can't be named

Soon this rhapsody in blue
will become a ridiculous tune
(of course) always dedicated to the moon

Finally dust to dust and ashes to the sea
A moonlight bath, my longed-for cure-all
Other worlds to discover that no one is real
As a whole the beginning and the fall

Here I am, in the rain, with nothing to explain
I can't recall the way we were
Overseas we'll find a place
to think about the things we leave in the end



Narcotic   »»  »

Would you move to my flat
if I told you that I am insane?
In my pocket something forgotten
A key for no door

Sorrow grows with the tide
My computer lives its own life
It's the only pet I've ever had
I feed it while I sing a lullaby

I just took a sleeping pill
Well, maybe were two,
but this doesn's mean that I am thinking of you

I eat my sandwich of truth
Wouldn't you like to have a bite?
But I have no beer to swallow
I'll have to go to buy

I've got a friend without a face
He appears in my dreams
and takes me near the river
A place where nobody's ever been

I just took two sleeping pills
Well, maybe were three,
but this doesn's mean that I am thinking of you
just three sleeping pills
Well, maybe were four,
but this doesn's mean that I am thinking of you

I always wanted to see other countries
I don't exactly why
But I have no explanation
It's like to live another life

Sometimes, under some circumstances
I feel sadder than before
But only remain for a minute
in which my soup becomes cold

I just took four sleeping pills
Well, maybe were five,
but this doesn's mean that I am thinking of you
just five sleeping pills
Well, maybe were six,
but this doesn's mean that I am thinking of you



The Hardest Way   »»  »

I'm crossing the hardest way
looking for bluer skies
above our sleepy eyes

I had a dream in black and white
Our child was born, our faces were old
and there was fun no more
