FISHING BIRDS

All these years I thought you were special, sometimes I believed that I mistook when I broke up with you. Maybe you deserved a snob, a rich man, You don’t mince your words ‘cause when you talk, you go a bit too far. Now I see this bitter girl you’ve become, and I feel bad for you to be honest. It seems like you gave in, let yourself go. You need to think about, should think about it now! I won’t take you home, I won’t anymore, I just can be around, listen to your words, If you think the worst, you will be far wrong. It’s the way I feel. I’m always trying to be kind; I believe I owe you though I paid my crime long time ago. Everybody thought you were special, the best in the class, good talking girl, you were smart and sharp. But you’ve never risen to the occasion, now life makes no sense and you have lost your bearings to go on. When I see the bitter girl you are now, I don’t think it’s my fault to be honest, It seems like you gave in, let yourself go! You need to think about, should think about it now! I won’t take you home, I won’t anymore, I just can be around, listen to your words, If you think the worst, you will be far wrong. It’s the way I feel I won’t take you home, I won’t anymore, I just can be around, listen to your words, If you think the worst, you will be far wrong. It’s the way I feel I’m always trying to be kind, I believe I owe you though I paid my crime long time ago. I’d like to give you a hand but now I believe maybe this song will be the best I’ll do for you.

Every time I meet you in this bloody place, everything has changed, everything seems fake. I can’t stand all these phonies around, don’t give a damn ‘bout their stupid cool dance. I have no fun, just waste my time, I have no reasons to be a friendly guy. I have a feeling I’m just playing a role: I’m just a toy in a puppeteer’s show! In this town (in this town) everybody seems so wrong, cause everyone (cause everybody I know), cause everybody needs more fun I think we are wasting this Saturday though there’s a girl and she looks great, drinking coca-cola and dancing alone, I bet I guess what you’re thinking about “She wanna flirt with you, She wanna kiss you sure” Wake up man, her boyfriend is there! I used to think you were a regular boy now you are a toy in this puppeteer’s show! In this town (In this town) everybody seems so wrong cause everyone (cause everybody I know), cause everybody needs more fun In this town (In this town) In this town (In this town) In this town (In this town) everybody needs more fun Should I tell you once again? Everything here seems to stink. Everybody is drinking and taking some drugs, they’re all phonies, they just try to be high. They wanna dance with you, they wanna just be cool. They have “disaster” written all over them! Sometimes remember Haddock’s was our home, sometimes just need to forget any thought. Sometimes I feel we’re playing a role, somehow we are toys in this puppeteer’s show! In this town (in this town) everybody seems so wrong cause everyone (cause everybody I know), cause everybody needs more fun In this town, in this town, in this town, in this town In this town, in this town, everybody needs more fun In this town, in this town, in this town…

I’m a clown, the scarecrow I’m a nightmare for your deep hopes I’m the reason (why)s you can’t, you can’t sleep for long Sister! Don’t try to escape, you can’t, don’t try it I always find the way to be in your mind If you think I’ll forget your sins or forgive them I don’t like to say you’re damn wrong I’ll be waiting for you at home I’ll be staring at you alone and hold on, hold on, for long, hold on There’s no rush, there’s no rush, There’s no rush, there’s no rush Brother! Don’t blame me for your fault, your faults There’s no fun when I kill your deep hopes If you think Blame will disappear as if by magic I’m so sorry to say you’re lost Blame is waiting for you at home It’s staring at you alone, and waits your turn, for long, hold on, hold on There’s no rush, there’s no rush waits your turn, there’s no rush

Nothing 04:08
Yeah I can feel you And nothing can stop me I don’t mind what they say It’s never too late to restore a little dignity just two seconds to pray Yeah it’s hard to stay Another night again looking for you Yeah it’s hard to hear Another scary lie I Can’t see his face nothing will make her come back nothing to do to change the past I couldn’t give more to clarify nothing will make her come back nothing to do to change the past I couldn’t give more to clarify I still feel you wherever you are I’ll never forget But not with this black stain not in such shame that I will change Another night again looking for you Yeah it’s hard to hear Another scary lie I Can’t see his face nothing will make her come back nothing to do to change the past I couldn’t give more to clarify nothing will make her come back nothing to do to change the past I couldn’t give more to clarify

My funny valentine Sweet comic valentine You make me smile with my heart You looks are laughable, unphotographable Yet you're my favorite work of art Is your figure less than greek Is your mouth a little bit weak When you open it to speak, are you smart? Don't change a hair for me Not if you care for me Stay little valentine stay Each day is valentine's day

Summertime 02:23
Dear, It’s easy to understand, It happens just sometimes, I half-expected you to love me but you won’t. You showed me something I’d only read, I’d only dreamt about. It got out of my hands, don’t ask me “where’s my mind” Before this dream turns into a nightmare, let me take my time Dear, You left me empty when you closed that door that let that let me understand your head, your universe. I guess I’m wrong when I believe you’ll never be so clear, I wanna see your face, I need to see your eyes, The way I feel is “kiss me now or get out of my life” All this time I thought you’d be the one. See how hard and easy is love in Summertime, Summertime, Summertime. Summertime, Summertime…

Anybody loves forever People break up all the time, what can we do? I have no stomach for these damn things. Didn’t even ask her out, I had no choice. She squeezed it out of me, She got me like hypnotized or something worse. What am I supposed to do? ‘cause she drives me crazy, man. When I think I’m out, she gets me back again I thought she was so beautiful but I’ve been wrong before, confusing what is sex with love I feel like I’ve been fishing birds I thought she was so beautiful but I’m always so wrong, confusing what is sex with love I fear I’m fishing birds I start with the word “listen”. The next thing I know I’m in the middle of it There’s this voice inside me going: “Do it, man. Keep going. You were almost out”. It is like a prison break which is risky ‘cause you know I’m flesh and blood, I am getting rid of her, hesitate a little bit. I just fear I’m right back where I started from. I thought she was so beautiful but I’ve been wrong before, confusing what is sex with love I feel like I’ve been fishing birds I thought she was so beautiful but I’m always so wrong confusing what is sex with love I fear I’m fishing birds I’ll never fall in love, I’ll never fall in love…

Remembering that time we met, believing we could be good friends, before the situation became so odd. There was no reason to complain, I didn’t want to bother you, I don’t think everybody is that wrong. Cause every night seems so long, Every time when we talk, does everybody need to be so nice? Every time, every walk… I don’t regret this time we shared though everybody seems to know that all this time together made no sense. And I don’t want to be unfair, I begged for any chance before, I don’t accept that everything is O.K. Cause every night seems so long, Every time, when we talk, does everybody need to be so nice? Every time, every walk… Cause every night seems so long, Every time when we talk, does everybody need to be so nice? Anybody needs to be so nice Every time, every walk.. Anybody needs to be so nice every time, every walk… Anybody needs to be so nice, anybody needs to be so nice…

It’s like you always try to live your early days Everything was fun and everybody great But somehow something broke your happiness In that time you realized there was no way You were six years old but one step ahead Before you thought that Spiderman was real, that California was so close, that Paul and John remained good friends, you ignored that they broke up long time ago, that John was dead! From time to time, I see your face remembering these little things that no one cares ‘cause it’s your life, your memories, I won’t forget From time to time, I see your face remembering these little things that no one cares though It’s so crazy, it’s so strange, but it’s your life, your memories Now that anyone belongs to any world Would you like to see where you mistook your way? one brother was a punk, another used to pray like a preacher man who seemed to lose his faith From time to time, I see your face remembering these little things that no one cares ‘cause it’s your life, your memories, I won’t forget From time to time, I see your face remembering these little things that no one cares though It’s so crazy, it’s so strange, but it’s your life, your memories From time to time, I see your face remembering these little things that no one cares ‘cause it’s your life, your memories, I won’t forget From time to time, I see your face remembering these little things that no one cares though It’s so crazy, it’s so strange but it’s your life, your memories Remembering, remembering, remembering these little things because it’s your life, your memories.

Mr. Time 05:03
Hey, Mister Time, Won’t you give me a chance to remember those dreams I’ve forgotten? I swear I tried to be strong to be wise though my blindness betrayed me again, ‘cause everytime that someone gave me a hand I just wasted it. Hey Mister Time, I won’t wait for a sign to make real all those dreams I’ve forgotten. I’ll make it fast and won’t turn a deaf ear to anything I believe makes me happy. And the next time that someone gives me a hand I’ll just take it. I wonder why You did let me misplace that boy I used to be, forgotten alone somewhere. I’ll make it run though the wind blows against. I’ll take the better way, wont’ fear how the weather is. Going with the flow, go with the flow. Lord, I beg you, please forgive me and move my fears away Please forgive me if I miss you moving out of the way Lord, forgive me, once I failed I moved my dreams away I wonder why You did let me misplace that boy I used to be, forgotten alone somewhere. I’ll make it run though the wind blows against. I’ll take the better way, wont’ fear how the weather is. Going with the flow, go with the flow.

Tell me how, tell me what can I do to help you, fool? How exactly do you think it ends? ‘cause I know when I start to talk, I’ll be so rude. You won’t wanna hear what I must say. My friend, forgive me when I tell you, this kind of girl won’t save you, She will not make you whole, She won’t fill your heart up. After this time together thinking she’ll be forever, Don’t see anyone just you with yourself in your room As the old man used to say sometimes: “everybody is waiting for a Miracle each Saturday” As the old man used to say sometimes: “everybody is waiting for a Miracle each Saturday that never comes, that never comes” Tell me what can I do to change your point of view, I’m tired of hearing that she’s beautiful. Maybe I’m wrong but I thought that love is about two, I can’t see anyone today with you My friend, believe me when I tell you, It’s not my aim to hurt you, She will not make you whole, She won’t fill your heart up. After this time together thinking she’ll be forever, Don’t see anyone just you with yourself in your room As the old man used to say sometimes: “everybody is waiting for a Miracle each Saturday” As the old man used to say sometimes: “everybody is waiting for a Miracle each Saturday” As the old man used to say sometimes: “everybody is waiting for a Miracle each Saturday” Everybody I know waits for a miracle, waits for a miracle each Saturday Everybody I know waits for a miracle, waits for a miracle each Saturday that never comes, that never comes!
