Chameleon - 1993
Some people are much too smart They know everything before it stars Eating winsdom with the pail No wonder when it sticks Cry and tell, and slander, yell and grumble well So loud for heanen's sake Pink bubbles go ape
We poison our hearts We poison our seas We burn down the paradise We're stoppin'good waves We're losin'our trees The future looks bright ahead I don't wonder we'll go under In this river of lies We're lost in this time We create so fine The future we already fear Seems like no way out Seems like there's no doubt The future looks bright ahead We're teh kids of the century We're lost in our games No time for the memories We look in the haze We're the kids of the century It wans't our fault Ev'ry thing's done num, we fall Let's keep on crying But sometimes I don't wanna fall Ev'rytime when you look around things will smile at you Ev'rytime when you turn around you smell the truth But you rum away From the lies you can't say Don't run away From the lies you can't say We're teh kids of the century We're lost in our games No time for the memories We look in the haze We're the kids of the century It wans't our fault Ev'ry thing's done num, we fall Let's keep on crying But sometimes I don't wanna fall
I've been told in the name of something I've got to know what it means to play the game Too many faces around they're talking They play their parts oh, so well But who's to blame Back on the steets That's where we are Building a fortress of power Yeah! We're coming You know better than me the rules are Getting better of fat in the mania It's good to know who is who in our game The speed is faster It's harder to see where we are Back on the steets That's where we are Building a fortress of power Yeah! We're coming Please Mister Knowhow just bring me the news I'm waiting so long For you telling all you can tell There's one thing about you You're dying to prove The master plan is your and living with knowledge is hell Back on the steets That's where we are Building a fortress of power Yeah! We're coming
Each time when one more year was over You refused to hear heaven's bell sounds And the hapiness in your heart's been set lower You're searching for friends But no one seemed to be 'round You merely should think of the good times 'Cos there are so many ways you can go Take a look at yourself You're still very young And big aims always take very long Now it's time for hapiness Stay hard and trust your fate Don't forget you're something else You'll never be to late Trust your father's mighty spell You'll never be alone Fate will always turn out well And you'll be number one Shout at the world don't care what they say 'Cos your life is now, here and today Luck is there, ev'rywhere Go on reap it's goods, that's the way You wanna have truth relief from your pain But life takes its tool again and again Don't fear the night Your future is pay And the tracks to your aims are laid Now it's time for hapiness Stay hard and trust your fate Don't forget you're something else You'll never be to late Trust your father's mighty spell You'll never be alone Fate will always turn out well And you'll be number one Now it's time for hapiness Don't forget you're something else Trust your father's mighty spell Fate will always turn out well
there are some fellows s oft and mellow Sitting in a field and play like hell No one knows the way it goes But all the songs they play they sound so well Tonight we got to see the Heavy Metal Hamsters It must feel nice to be a Heavy Metal Hamster Nothing sets you free like our Heavy Metal Hamsters A 20th century Fox came by A gold tripped cigarette high in his jaws Contracts, PD's nosebags, TV shows And everything with no remorse Things are settled now for our Heavy Metal Hamsters Fame up to your browns, oh Heavy Metal Hamsters A previously unknown lifestyle Heavy Metal Hamsters The sweet taste of sucess is strong And everything inside goes wrong you see With coloured furs, sunglasses Tons of nuts to eat they don't feel free What is wrong with our Heavy Metal Hamsters Look what they have done our Heavy Metal Hamsters Where is the field to run for our Heavy Metal Hamsters Some things are left undone for our Heavy Metal Hamsters
You think I could be the one to look inside your mind I think we'll have the time, so let us get in line another town another bed, another thimg to go But now I learned to take it cool, but I don't wanna know My head is empty, all the stories that I've know I've told The situation I scape from, now it looks like gold 'Cause after this I'm gone, the show is done No other town or bed that lies again I'll go home to what I know I'll go home, home to you By the time that you think 'bout it twice No spotlight makes you stay By the time that you think y ou don't know You have to go The plane is ready in my head, so many things to do A few more hours till it's over I reach out for you A kind of peace inside s growing, thinking 'bout the shows Until the next time I'll be so much better yes I know Now this is it I'm gone, the show is done No other town or bed that lies again I'll go home to what I know I'll go home, home to you
What keeps on telling me To stay on the way I coose What keeps on giving me All the streight to carry on Give me some time, can't sleep anymore at night I wanna show I'm here with An aim of mine I feel strong But someone's crying I know It's so hard to find A sign of a way to go Don't need to stone my brain I need my hesd for something else I wanna live and learn Step by step I'm going on Send me a sign Don't wanna resign too soon What situation will come I can't endure I feel strong But someone's crying I know It's so hard to find A sign of a way to go
Here is all mankind so proud of their achievements There is a stone That is warmer than you Look how we stan in the stream of illusuons No one says a word Here you laught And there you cry All that makes you move There's no tear for anything Anything but you Animals dyimg for our vanity Our world is A beautifull place to be free Drinking the blood Of the weak is so easy No one hears them cry Here you cheat And there you lie All that makes you gain One day we will face His throne There's nothin' we can say Prosperity, luxury Fast food is rising Is the rainforest that dies Here you laught And there you cry All that makes you move There's no tear for anything Anything but you Here you cheat And there you lie All that makes you gain One day we will face His throne There's nothin' we can say
Thunder, flash and lightning Is working on my back The tables in the kitchen Are tryin' to break my neck All the late night memories Are learning im my shoes My mother's old grey leather gloves are singing loud the blues I can taste what's in the sun No time to waste 'cause there is none When I feel blue I see it shine But still it's true I'm doin' fine You can't see me 'Cause now I'm all free Now you know I'm through An all that's not new Sitting on a paperback 'Cause I don't know what really crecks I'm trying to climb my pencil to get him high No one tells me what to do 'Cause ano one knows what I've been through You don't know a thing But you can learn It's time to touch the sky My mind is free I fly I can taste what's in the sun No time to waste 'cause there is none When I feel blue I see it shine But still it's true I'm doin' fine You can't see me 'Cause now I'm all free Now you know I'm through An all that's not new
We're living in a constant fight Too much pressure everywhere And all around Don't let it put you down Hold on tight Climb to your dreams Don't you depend on someone else Think for yourself and win the race The chance you got Comes never twice Do your best, and do it right Time will come But you don't hide You are on your way You're let by God But you're not a pawn Should live your life Don't care 'bout any scorn Try to be as smart as you can be I know you own so much ability The chance you got Comes never twice Do your best, and do it right Time will come But you don't hide You are on your way
Now there is this day A lot of things are changing Can't just kick it away, Got to get things right Sometimes it happens fast But nothing seems to last The thing that I once started Isn't mine anymore I gess now is my turn You've got a face like a child Got a mind like a woman Your smile is warm and tender I hear the people say That I should stay away From you and all The problems you might bring They'll never know - you Nobody ever knows what to do They'll never see you cry They'll never know why Now it's your turn to break free When you want it all you've got to see Now it's your turn to break free When you want the life You've got to see what it means See the little boy Holding mama's hand His eyes can see the thing We've long forgotten The world is easy now - and somehow He's right until there is this day When Mickey Mouse must go away Now it's your turn to break free When you want it all you've got to see Now it's your turn to break free When you want the life You've got to see what it means This world is crying to be free This world is dying can't you see We need a turn to do it right We need a mind revolution To get away from this selfisness Stop playing blind - break free Now it's your turn to break free When you want it all you've got to see Now it's your turn to break free When you want the life You've got to see what it means
OOnce there was a time when mankind Dreamed about reading the stars Nowadays we're almost ready Even for the wars Some told lies and they were famous Cause of making many wars One told right, they were punished With pain and crucify What is right and what is wrong Can I prevent, can I be strong Quick enough to run away Or brave enough for here to stay Time will bring the answer Will we feed the cancer We don't give a damn at all Some get shit and some get lobster Take my ass into the sun It takes some time to realize We cannot eat a gun The fat get fatter, the poor stay poor The money maker sells the skin But you don't ask and you don't see The world you're living in Got my fears and got my doubts Tell me what it's all about Should I try a step Or should I stay and wait another day Time will bring the answer Will we feed the cancer We don't give a damn at all
