THE DAY WE LEFT EARTH

Oh, the light of the day
Oh, that was a strangely beautiful day
You were driving your sports car
Dressing your pastel-colored suit
In a warm afternoon

Do you remember the day we left earth?

Wild Palms flared the sun
We realized everything must go
But we didn’t mind running away forever
We were so glam
Sleep walking for a long time

Do you remember the day we left earth?
Do you remember?

LIQUID LUCK

Let things be what they are
Have no personal views
This is how everything
Under liquid luck is ruled

Let your heart journey in simplicity
Be one with that which is beyond

Let your heart journey in simplicity
Let your heart journey

Setting my leaning to the sun
Now that I am glowing
I won’t fall down

NEON GODS

These summer girls come out at night
To hairy boys and traffic lights
On a good haze glow
To my fortunes flow
Off they go our girls from below

Summer girls come out at night
To hairy boys and traffic lights
A good haze glows
To my fortunes flow high
High! High heels come out at light
To full round moon they all take pride
Stick to find their blue hearts

The spirits rise to the brightest fight
When they get around it’s pure design
Neon Gods Virtue Emperors
Polar stars on the hot night sky

Summer girls come out at night
To hairy boys and traffic lights
A good haze glows
To my fortunes flow high
High! High heels come out at light
To full round moon they all take pride
Stick to find their blue hearts

BABY GENES

Baby acts without knowing why
And moves without knowing where it moves
A spot is like a rotting branch
Inside is like a cold ash

Baby cries all night long
But his throat never becomes hurt
This is what is not yet known
As the ice melting grows

Being like this
Neither bad fortune will affect it
Nor good fortune draw near
Baby stares all day long
But is not affected by what is outside it

Baby climbs right up to the sky
Squeezing clouds, spinning star
Every day is party day
All the tiny fingers splash

Can you become?
Can you become a little baby?
Can you become?
Can you become a little baby?

TROJAN RABBIT

This is the book of revelations
Alice went down the rabbit hole
And she found terrorist love
She was kind and rewind all the time
To reconcile with her past
Until Alice met the queenie of all hearts
And queenie told Alice

Hey Alice! Hey Alice!
You make my heart go BOOM BOOM!

Above all hearts
Above all clocks
Alice went down the rabbit hole
Alice was kind and reconciled with her past
Sheee reeeewind
Above all clocks next to her heart
She went down and she met the queenie
The queenie of all hearts
And queenie told her

Hey Alice! Hey Alice!
You make my heart go BOOM BOOM!
You make my heart go BOOM BOOM!

Above all clocks
Next to my heart
Terrorist love!!!
Terrorist love!!!

You make my heart go BOOM BOOM!
You make my heart go BOOM BOOM!

SONG FOR MORTALS

May all cruelty of fate
Wear itself out
And stop at me
May it fill me with designer clothes
Decked with gold
On a public parade
A whole army of glittering flunkies
Lavish splendor echoing all about me

We act like mortals in all that we fear
We act like immortals in all that we desire

Let my mind be preserved in silence
Now that fortune was already conquered by me
Le my dazzling eyes glide with a long trail of blazing light
The bravery knowledge of the gods
For life is turbulent, gloomy and anxious without me

We act like mortals in all that we fear
We act like immortals in all that we desire

Tranquilizing flattery
Tempest of impressions
