Lovely Beth



 
 
 
hard as a nail, hard as a bed
 
was lovely Beth, we've put to rest
 
lovely Beth was all that, she was a cold storm
 
a
 
screamin' kettle, a horse in a trot
 
lovely Beth was all that
 
 
soft in her head, soft in her heart
 
soft in her parts, soft an' very hard
 
lovely Beth was all that
 
 
a
 
mouse keen on cheese, a car in a junkyard,
 
a cow in a supermart
 
lovely Beth was all that
 
 
sof in her head, soft in her heart, soft in her parts
 
soft an' very hard
 
hard as a nail, hard as a bed
 
was  lovely Beth
 
 we've
 
put
 
to
 
rest

Belinda




Belinda
 
lived her insane life, reachin' out to the naked skies
 
time an' time reachin' for that side
 
where angels fly in their blindin' light
 
 
speed
 
filled her days an' nights, maddening , demanding an' rough
 
a bird trying to catch the sun, she got burned on her last run
 
Belinda
 
queen of birds living a short life, tried to catch the sun
 
never got close to that light
 
time was getting short in supply
 
a line was cast to the other side
 
booze was a torment, drugs a need
 
this lady couldn't budge or leave
 
an' yes she kiceld it aside for a clean life
 
 
belinda
 
livin a short life, tried to catch the sun
 
never got close to the ligfht

Engelse versie 'Meester Fluisteraar': 'Master Whisperer'



 
listen an'quiver 
hear the master in the wind, in that swift breeze
where he whispers about 'you an' I '  what 'you an' I  may not see
 
 
he
even whispers where a king resides in its corridors , in a chamberlain's chamber,
in a nobleman's' bed , in a kitchen's pots and pans or in the most sensitive ear of all
when a war lord comes to call
 
not only  a whisperer is he a listener his might rests upon all the global land
his whispers are ev'ry where and the spoils of war are his profit
written in the sand
 
 
listen an' quiver
if you know the master he protects whatever interests he has
might you confess a silenced whisper will remove the threat
from whatever confession you ever had
 
or
he whispers less and you will remain in his servitude might you flee
he will find you even in a hollow tree where again he will becxome
as the wind, a strong breeze, a gale if need
 
 
and
 wiithout remorse will deposite you under a fallen tree's dead leafs
or
leave you somewhere on a remote wasteland where nobody will ever believe
you're the residue
 
'The Master Whisperer'
 
leaves

What's in a name



 
 
Amy
 
wrinkled face, droopey eyes, leather skin
 
hair

she's
 
more than your size
 
 
she loves  all the young men
 
she loves to dance an' dance
 
she loves to love in a bucket
 
she
 
loves
 
 little
 
Amy's
 
plumber
 
an'
 
all we do is call names
 
an'
 
all we do is play games
 
an'
 
all we do is tell mother
 
little
 
Gary Pucket

Forever changing



 
 
 
winds
 
are
 
 forever changing,

sweeping across the nations
 
blowing
 
a
 
war in to its creation
 
winds are forever changing
 
 
winds
 
are
 
forever changing

 
 
bringing words of a down fall
 
bringing words of damnation, bringing word of a truce

 
 
winds
 
are
 
forever changing
 
 
 
still the winds do blow, sweep all over the land
 
people rise to its tune, taking a world to its doom
 
leaving trouble in the sand

 
 
winds
 
are
 
forever changing

 
 
times are forever changing
 
rubbing out old things, bringing in the new
 
winds are blowing all the same
 
they
 
will always change, always be on time
 
a
 
war
 
will
 
always be on the rise

 
 
clouds will bring in the rain, givin' its battle to mankind
 
where its flames are brought to life, by a terrible gust of wind
 
 and
 
ashes
 
are
 
left to frighten,

where nobody think's he's  staying

 
 
the
 
winds
 
they

are

forever changing

Easy ways




on
 
the hunt for some lonely ladies
 
 to
 
come to his mansion
 
 
 
is
 
a
 
love so wild yet so tender, an uncovered stone

 
 
a
 
king of beasts takes them home
 
 
never
 
seen one so gentle, never seen one so at ease
 
his
 
love can tease, his love can please
 
 
king of beasts lives at night
 
hunts
 
from
 
shadow to shadow untill it comes to a close
 
takin' them home where love is wild, where love is mild
 
king of beasts, is allright
 
 
 
his
 
approach is slow, his price is promissing
 
will she be staying, will she come home
 
to
 
taste his love, his gentleness
 
see his easy ways
 
will
 
she
 
taste
 
will she stay

There was thunder

 
 
 
 
 
a
 
woman can kill with so much
 
as
 
a
 
breath of love
 
a
 
woman
 
can kill with a look, love with an embrace
 
cry in the shade
 
a
 
woman
 
can kill with so much as a gentle touch
 
 
feel
 
the coldness of her arms, see the chill in her eyes
 
the
 
hate when she smiles, still she speaks of love
 
which
 
she
 
promissed but easily forgot
 
 
 
whatever
 
reason took her love, it wasn't completely lost
 
like
 
a
 
desease some of it never leaves, a faint  feeling remains
 
disturbing in fact, 'cause it doesn;t rest
 
 
always
 
a
 
stir a movement is there
 
she
 
knows it all too well, leaves her in despair
 
'cause
 
strong the hate, it's done in passion, love its name
 
 
 
her
 
strenght weakening, comin in for the kill
 
close to total surrender
 
there
 
was
 
thunder

  Well, na diepe intelligente conversaties omlijst met sfeervolle muziek besloot ik na diep overdenken   vannacht alsnog om 24.00...
