- A Feeling of Spring
Tune sweet tune curves in the mist
As we walk down the alley at night
Breeze melts down on your cheeks
How could it be that we have missed the occasion
How could it happen that the lips were pursed
How could it be that we have missed it completely
How could it happen when the spring has come
- History Is Haunting
Days and weeks pass me by
Winter makes room for spring
Used to think time was on my side
But I’m no longer sure, I’m no longer sure
They told me I must be proud
Living in a glory land
Told me I should kiss a tricolor
But I’m no longer sure I’m no longer sure
- Imcomprehensible
Lay down your gun
Seems that war is over
And the hapless rover
Can have some rest
Put on your coat
‘Cause the air is chilly
It’s October, Billy
Dripping on the ground
- Not Your Usual This and That
Not your usual this and that
Scary rabbit from the hat
Home-brew bubbles in a jug
Give the uphill work a hug
Not your usual this and that
What a garish vinaigrette
Faux Picasso, faux Matisse
- Up Against the Odds
No approval from the pretties
Dusting off the old-time treaties
Everybody goes astray
But I’m inside I’m on my way
No attention to the morsels
My behavior is remorseful
Everybody runs amok
- Victims of Jet Lag
No salvation from the longing
No excuses to be made
Barely waken for a new day
He has stepped on the crusade
No assurance for the future
No redemption from the yearn
Deadly sleepless in the airport
She is waiting for her turn
- War Paint
Hundred strips across the face
Billions trillions on the back
Squeezing out tomato paste
Lisa steps outside the rack
Pity for her enemy
Doomed and vanquished in advance
Final stroke of gory red
Underlines the martial stance
