I Don't Get It

I don't get it when I'm outside and my mobile is dead
And my little toe hits on the edge of my bed
I don't get it when the laces of my shoes are untied
I just hate it when my chips aren't completely deep fried
I don't get it when there's more dip than potato crisps left
When I'm on my bike and the wind has blown off my hat
I don't get it when I caught a cold and no hanky's around
And when I bought a ticket that's nowhere to be found
I don't get it, I don't get it, I don't get it...
I don't get it when my toast landed butter-side down
And when I need to poop and no toilet's around
Not a fan of getting blisters from new my shoes
Looking at the menu asking: »what shall I choose«
I don't get why my pretzel's missing all the salt
And when I'm in the shower and the water runs cold
When there's no paper left after taking a poop
And missing a letter in my letter soup
I don't get it, I don't get it, I don't get it...

Fuck You, Destiny!

You don't need to say, I'm having trouble to obey
So fuck your cabaret, I'm gonna leave this place someday
Everyday I deal with crap which sometimes makes me almost snap
There are times I wished I'd fled but then I held the fort instead
But things are getting worse -- day by day
I need to leave right now, gonna get away somehow
Of travelling 'round the world I dream, hope to re-gain self-esteem
Being free and independent - this will be my theme
In the belly of the iron serpent, travelling far north
I'm encountering some fine men - who seem to need support
A new star they seek they tell, the old one he must excel
In their travelling hotel, they promised he could dwell
And things are working out - they hired me
»I won't disappoint - that you will see«
My new journey has begun, my old life is finally done
I'm the happiest bonobo and with joy I'm overrun
In what hell I have wound up, my excitement has been crushed
A shithole of grande degree, behind iron bars I'm stuck
I am forced to fulfil tasks, mankind's cruelty's unmasked
I demand to disappear, why do all the humans laugh
The life I dreamt to have -- that's passé
And again I get the urge - to break-away
Tell me how do I escape? Why won‘t you set me free?
I really hate my life - Fuck you, destiny!

Happiness for Everybody
02:15

Space and time will always change
They came to us one day
Progress is what remains
Even though in disarray
Shadows warped and twisted
In a rather morbid way
Jolly Ghosts are smiling in the distance
You better hide
Happiness for everybody
Happiness for everybody
The Witches Jelly has stolen your limbs
The Mosquito Mange struck hard
Obey or get detained;
The future — can’t be disarmed
Your wishes hide where the Meat Grinder sleeps
Just one step ahead
Sacrifice a life for all my dreams
You better wish

New World

I have nothing left to hope for
After I've got washed up on the shore
I'm wandering in a big skeleton
With bones covered in moss
When I'm looking through my mask
I see that nothing’s left to restore
I don’t have anything to hope for
After you have been destroyed by war
I want to fly into space
But I have to hide underground
Don't want to live in this new world
Two hundred feet beneath the town
Force answers force and war breeds war
Something - we have seen before
We're hiding like rats in our own grave
Ended up having ourselves enslaved
And we still haven’t learned a thing
Instead we keep clipping our wings
Guess, we have reaped what we have sown
We'll be always on our own
I thought I‘d nothing left to hope for
Evolution‘s been knocking on our door
The next generation of humankind
And again — we are being blind
Things we can’t see - we will smite
Moving one step closer into the light
I thought I‘d finally fly to space
And again our hope has been erased

You're a Delight

My heart went boom when you were entering the room
I've been waiting the whole week for this
Your shiny metal robe has given me new hope
I'm so happy that you exist
You're a delight
I'm gonna hold you tight
Until - we unite
I will never let you out of my sight
(I will never never never never never never never never)
Things will never change with you even when I did screw...
up - because I let you down
It almost doesn't matter when I drop you and you shatter
You don't need to frown
You're a delight
I'm gonna hold you tight
Until - we unite
I will never let you out of my sight
(I will never never never never never never never never)
You're still a delight
I'll always hold you tight
Until - we unite
I will never let you out of my sightt
(I won't ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever)

I am trapped in this hollow room
Where my past got caught
I billion miles away from home
My future falls apart
But fortune’s always been with me
Something‘s gone wrong
Now I'm starting to have trouble to breathe
That's when I realised you're almost gone
I can't breathe without you
I need you to survive
I can't breathe without you
Lost my oxygen supplies
I promise it will never happen again
I am sorry that I took you for granted
But it's getting kind of hard to catch breath
While floating around
Your friend gravity has also left
And I’m begging for you to show mercy
You’re the reason I exist
And without you, I can't be
