All The Whales Coming To Shore Are Sick How many colors are there to see? How many? Are you afraid of red, yellow and blue? Don’t tell me you don’t know, don’t tell me you forgot Just asking are we coming from or going to? All the whales coming to shore are sick We should let it go and not say anything? And we are sweeping filth in the street Asking ourselves was it really all true? Where do you feel that in your body? As long as you run you’re happy Too many math puzzles already What is there to say or see or do? How many colors are there to see? How many? Are you afraid of red, yellow and blue? Who? Tell me who, who’s afraid? We are the same, all the same and all affected We want an answer as promptly as possible An answer that is fine or maybe of some complexity

All Fun And Games It was all fun and games In the summer of 79 Graffiti and lipstick designs Sneakers dangling over electric wires It was all fun and games Hangin’ around that street corner Suzy was so pretty in her David Bowie tee Showing strangers how big her muscles were Police said we were drunk People said we were shouting something One source said shots were fired People asked why do they fight if not for fun? It was all fun and games On the monday of 9th of july The town stanked from the smell of pop corn The car fumes and the tobacco smoke It was all fun and games Until Johnny lost his eye There wasn’t a bad thing in his body Except that little bullet

This Song Needs No Title Are you glad you are you and not anybody else? Blood burning Brain beating Have you walked too far from the street? No mask no gloves no nothing Picture postcards bizarre notions All the monkeys in the zoo Milk bottles petrol bombs Just don’t know what we gonna do What fools we have been Watch the mess we‘ve made of everything And we just can’t shake our yesterdays And we just can’t shake our yesterdays Picture postcards bizarre notions All the monkeys in the zoo Milk bottles petrol bombs Just don’t know what we gonna do I don’t have the words, well, not your kind of words Yes, I have no rhymes and I can’t get any Beat the drums blow the bugles I guess this song needs no title

Oh Baby, Let’s Beat The Birds We two together Let us take higher We two together In one feather Oh baby, let’s beat the birds Oh baby, let’s beat the birds All right we two Let’s make it to be true Through the acid rain To the sky blue Oh baby, let’s beat the birds Oh baby, let’s beat the birds Well, here we are Below the storm Beneath the clouds Do you think there will be a war? Oh baby...

What The Boys Mean When They Say « Oh Yeah »? What songs the sirens sang? What’s the secret behind a string guitar twang? Is it the sweaping or is it the slang? What the boys mean when they say «Oh Yeah»? Because you like to listen to the radio Because you like to go to the disco Because it’s all you want to know What the boys mean when they say «Oh Yeah»? It feels like it’s alive You haven’t always got a guitar in your hand ; now, have you? Oh feeling, feeling like you do How many kisses will she give you? What the boys mean when they say «Oh Yeah»? Doing something else, something of your own Some boys go about with nothing Some say this and some say that What the boys mean when they say «Oh Yeah»? It feels like it’s alive

BULLSHIT 01:50
Bullshit Bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit! I always vote for the best man The one who always starts by «to be honest» No more problems of economics No more problems of politics Bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit! Oh bullshit I always vote for the best man We pay taxes, don’t we ? I always vote for the best man The one who can help to make a tree Oh you love jam... I always vote for the best man No more problems of social relations I always vote for the best man No more problems of the proper use of leisure time Bullshit bullshit bullshit bullshit! I always vote for the best man The one who always start by «to be honest» Now my problem is what to do with life

Hey Fishes! 05:38
Hey Fishes! Hey fishes ! There’s a world above the sea, A world above the sea, a world above the sea And in this world we got point of views to stand by And many angles to consider We got enough to eat, a place to sleep And so many things we can’t remember Hey hey fishes! Hey fishes! There’s a world above the sea, A world above the sea, and a people of plenty Hey fishes, what does it takes to make you happy? Bicycle, jazz or may be a drop of whiskey? But I guess this song is not the place For such a philosophical discussion Hey hey fishes!

Because We Smell As Well As We See Because we smell as well as we see Because of some complex chemistry Six million head roses in agony It could be the last sniff for you and me Because we smell as well as we see Look at me and tell me why, daddy Micro micro microcurrie How much is a tiny quantity? Because we smell as well as we see Because we smell as well as we see Because we smell as well as we see Come back, Mary! Don’t you want your tea! No dog’s body!

Stinky Sneakers Stinky! Grimy! Dirty! Smelly! I ‘m a new kid now, I ain’t no snail I ‘m a stomach and I am legs Twist turns starts and stop I walk down the street and bop to the beat Got my grimy got my dirty Stinky sneakers Walking around the holes in the sidewalk I’ve nothing to do but to walk and walk faster A question in my head I keep asking myself Wich one of my feet walks faster than the other Got my grimy got my dirty Stinky sneakers I like the shoes on me Oh mama can’t you see Boy oh boy i can really run Rats cats bugs and bats I just want to shine a little bit in the sun Dust steel bricks and glass Got my grimy got my dirty... I just can’t live without

Speed Isn’t Everything (For Noé and Valérie) I saw a boy with a funny smile Spreading a little sunshine all along his way When in the street people pass by And they do not give a shit A chromosome mixup and a bucket hat Walking around the world that he was born in Each step so pimp, each slow Making his very funny bow Just like any other little boy Bad or sad or glad or shy or strong I saw a boy with a funny smile With slow steps and a wondering mind Each step so slow, so pimp so slow Making his very funny bow A chromosome mixup and a bucket hat Walking around the world that he was born in Just like any other little boy Bad or sad or glad or shy or strong
