Shadows

I remember the gaslight
on the cobblestone path
skies were scorched and suspended
in perpetual night
I was following a shadow
at the end of the road
I was following a shadow
I was following a ghost
What has been will be again
what has been done will be done again
there’s nothing new under the sun
nothing new under the sun
I remember the alley
at the back of your house
We were spending our time
playing cat and mouse
We were chasing the shadows
at the end of the road
We were chasing the shadows
casted on the wall
What has been will be again
what has been done will be done again
there’s nothing new under the sun
nothing new under the sun

I've Been Losing

I can't believe it's happening
I thought that we were galloping
I really thought that he would win
I really thought that he would finish
I think he collapsed
You know he was queen's favorite
He landed on his stomach
Landed on his stomach
Do the jump and fall
That's alright because
I've been losing for so long
Please hold your cheer
Hold on to your seat
He landed on his stomach
I've been losing for so long

Time is an embarrassing word
When you hold on to the world
So I throw it all away
And I'm living for today
Keeps me going every day
keeps me going on
I don't have time to die
And that's why I'm alive
It puts a smile on my face to know that
there's more
more than meets the eye
No words can describe
The heart of a child
No one wants to learn
the destruction of the heart
Puts everyone in a single file
There's more
more than meets the eye
No words can describe
I don't have time to die
It puts a smile on my face to know
that there's more
than meets the eye

3.5 years
We are at the end of days
Predict winning numbers
5-44
Or should I say:
A quarter to six?
I don't like being an early bird
But I have to
I do it for you
Your efforts are fruitless
That's not what you were meant for
A prototype of Übermensch
That's not what you were meant for
Your money's no good here
And change is on its way

Traversing

Lights are low on the neon church
The air’s too thick and the ground is too shallow
See that feather fall
It starts its journey alone
There’s a path for it to follow
There’s a path for everyone
Church bells ring from the hill
And no one can see
That the world is turning
How will I get to heaven?
Through an oculus rift on the day before the Armageddon
All different kinds of ships
are sailing through the open seas
to where the ocean gets too cold
Traversing from the west to the east
And from the salvage to the beach
delivering the withhold
Walking all alone in the cold
in a coastal path
Just a shadow on the boardwalk while the sun’s going down
Let the days roll out
How did I even get here?
it feels like yesterday
When life was wasted anyway
I got something in my pocket
I really have believed that I could turn my luck around
Church bells ring from the hill
And no one can see
That the world is turning
How did we get to heaven?
Through an oculus rift on the day of the Armageddon
All different kinds of ships
are sailing through the open seas
to where the ocean gets too cold
Traversing from the west to the east
And from the salvage to the beach
delivering the withhold

Summer in the City

Good times summer in the city
I got lost inside my head
I’ll spend my summer in the city
to find my flow again
Even out the swings
Regulate your breathing
You can make much more than this
Trust your gut feeling
Lean times for imagination
I can’t go on like this
I’ll better be quite in the city
Me and my merest dreams
Don’t let your body fall
Into the rabbit hole
He has no self control and
He need’s your compassion
Lean times for imagination
Sometimes when I’m alone
I lie awake and think
That life isn’t that terrible
Even in my dreams
Don’t forget where you come from
You’ve come a long way to get where you are
Never drop an anchor
It’s never as it seems
One day you’ll be back to sleep
So don’t hurt anyone
Don’t hurt even yourself
Or other creatures
Please don’t forget where you come from
Please don't forget
Don't you forget

A New Hope

On the first day I saw
The sun shining in the east
As it rose from the sea
Deep in the valley
Lilies have banished the seeds
He’s in a palace
Overseeing
In the land of my dream
the sun shone through the leaves
In this land of this marvellous dream
I forgot not to drink from the stream
This was paradise
An endless springtime
Stems will harden and become
Something closer to a bone
In the evening I saw
a star fall from the sky
There was nobody home
Now all the creatures
Have leapt on to the shore
And all the peaches have grew thorns
What a beautiful dream it was
simply unforgettable
It was spring, now it’s Fall
Stems will harden and become
Something closer to a bone

Player Queen

My mother dandled me and sang,
'How young it is, how young!'
And made a golden cradle
That on a willow swung.
'He went away,' my mother sang,
'When I was brought to bed,'
And all the while her needle pulled
The gold and silver thread.
She pulled the thread and bit the thread
And made a golden gown,
And wept because she had dreamt that I
Was born to wear a crown.

Κάπου Αλλού (Kapou Allou)
by Bazooka
supported by 7 fans who also own “May Your Dreams Come True”
The music is fine too you know; a pinch of Queens Of The Stone Age, a spoonful of Foo Fighters, a dash of The Red Hot Chili Peppers, all topped with a spicy Greek Tzatziki sauce. I just can’t help thinking what I would have thought of it had they sung in English. It does not matter anyways, because Bazooka does not. And Κάπου Αλλού is a very interesting album for people like me that like to go on holiday in their own heads very now and again.
