Barking Dogs Don't Bite

I’ve been around now for quite a long while,
much to long just to step in line.
You sound like a preacher, but you act like a sinner.
The devil in the skies always want to be the winner.
I’m sick of all the stories.
I don’t believe the hype.
You listen to me – you will know that it’s right.
You know: The barking dogs don’t bite!
Fast car, big house and a magic stick.
I’m not impressed at all – that’s just another cheap trick.
You can fool who you want, but you won’t fool me.
A pathetic looser, that is all I see.
I’m sick of all the stories.
I don’t believe the hype.
You listen to me – you will know that it’s right.
You know: The barking dogs don’t bite!
You’ve been talking a lot. You’ve been talking to loud.
You better calm down. Oh you better shut your mouth.
You claim to be somebody, but why should I care.
You do get attention and that don’t seem fair.
I’m sick of all the stories.
I don’t believe the hype.
You listen to me – you will know that it’s right.
You know: The barking dogs don’t bite!
The barking dogs don’t bite!
The barking dogs don’t bite!
The barking dogs don’t bite!

All My Friends Are Dead
04:03

It was a cloudy evening,
On a summer day.
We went to a party,
With lots of champagne.
We all got pretty drunken,
And I fell asleep.
My friends tried bungy jumping,
but they forgot the rope.
All my friends
All my friends
All my friends
Are dead – have past away.
When I was a kid,
we planned a camping trip.
We walked into the forest,
to find a place to stay.
After pitching the tent,
the others went to bed.
And I had to pee,
when a train hit our tent.
All my friends
All my friends
All my friends
Are dead – have past away.
Are laying in their graves!
No, I hate living.
No, I’m all alone.
No, my friends have all gone.
No, I want to die!
Back in an icy winter,
we climbed on a hill.
They all got their skis,
but I forgot my own.
So I went to a bar,
and had so many drinks.
My friends raced down the hill,
a big-foot ate them all.
All my friends
All my friends
All my friends
Are dead – have past away.

Beyond the Coffin

All we know, it’s a little scary – we all end on a cemetery.
With other dead man, all around us – with Old John, Alfred and Rosemary.
What happens after? Is there a heaven? - I don’t think we really want to know.
We can’t prepare us for an open ending – we’ll just learn when we’re cold as snow.
Dark hell - bright heaven
What the fuck is beyond the coffin?
Punishments or gratification?
What the fuck is beyond the coffin?
The preacher told me: “Stay well-behaved – if you want to see god face to face.
Do what you are told to do – stay calm, and care for your birthplace.”
But is that life, how I want to live it – is heaven all that worth to do?
I prefer my way of living – don’t care about an awful view.
Dark hell - bright heaven
What the fuck is beyond the coffin?
Punishments or gratification?
What the fuck is beyond the coffin?
That is not dead
which can eternal lie.
And with strange aeons
even death may die.
Dark hell - bright heaven
What the fuck is beyond the coffin?
Punishments or gratification?
What the fuck is beyond the coffin?
Who is controlling our lives?
Are we independent alive?
When it’s time to say bye?
Will we live forever or die?
Help me!
Tell me!
Will we ever know?
Help me!
Tell me!
Are we just for show?
Are we?
Really?
Just a copy of god?
We fight
All night
Against the King of Zod.

Dark Illusion
06:36
|

Cruelty – which is burning since the world is born.
Heads keep rolling.
Cruelty – tries to overwhelm humanity.
Bells are tolling.
Cruelty – never gives a chance for peace.
Doomsday calling.
Cruelty- makes our daily tv program.
We’re all falling.
Cruelty – since forever people forged
their own chains.
Many have tried – to tear their hurting bonds.
Have tried to change,
But no one – has achieved anything
they all failed.
Cruelty- like phoenix from the ashes
and the people jailed.
Cruelty – hides all the light on earth,
which lightens our souls.
Cruelty – weaker than you thought.
Hey, out of your holes!
Cruelty – veils all the good we have,
what makes live worth living
Humanity – will ever be and will resist.
Death is unforgiving.
Cruelty!
Cruelty!
Cruelty!
Cruelty!
Cruelty - Fight for peace!
Cruelty - Raise your voice!
Cruelty - It’s Time to fight!
Cruelty - The dark illusion.
