Long Live The Good Old Days LP


Cry


Do you want to know a secret?

Turn off your mind, relax, and float downstream

You're colorful like a rainbow

You pull me closer and closer and closer

To the darkness that everyone will one day witness

When the rusty veins can let the syringe through

It feels like snow falling in the summertime


An angel lost his wings and fell

From the dark sky down to six feet under

I didn't kill myself but I died

So cry as much as you want

But make sure that when you stop crying

Never cry again for the same reason


I can't believe that you took my limited kindness for weakness

That's why you shouldn't have cried

Because weren't we all born to live and let die?


An angel lost his wings and fell

From the dark sky down to six feet under

I didn't kill myself but I died

So cry as much as you want

But make sure that when you stop crying

Never cry again for the same reason


Love Me Slowly


Ten pm, hour when clubs open

Your heart is broken

I enter a new world

And you'll stay in the underworld

I can't turn away now

And I don't want to

I'll leave at two


Is it now unholy?

Love me slowly, love me slowly, love me slowly, slowly, slowly


I am a-gonna dance to Elvis Presley

The record player's playing

Get that jealousy and keep on praying

I'll go out and make a beehive updo

I won't love you or say I do

So call me later or never

But always remember that I'll survive


Is it now unholy?

Love me slowly, love me slowly, love me slowly, slowly, slowly


Hoping I won't become a corpse, it's late

I died last night, drowned in the lake

Kisses on my lips, bloody beach

I cannot see the light but I smell bleach

I cannot lie because I'm yours

You killed me, of course


Is it now unholy?

Love me slowly, love me slowly, love me slowly, slowly, slowly


I will never see freedom again

Come on and I'll break the chain

You will never let me go out of the grave

You kept telling me to behave

I wanna escape or run away but it broke

I can smell fuel oil and smoke


Is it now unholy?

Love me slowly, love me slowly, love me slowly, slowly, slowly


NYC

One minute left before before the alarm rings

In this city we'll soon all be kings

Living here is such a delight

It's almost six am and I didn't sleep last night

Head always raised looking up


Because I'm living in New York City, yeah, yeah, yeah

New, New York City, yeah, yeah

I'm living in New York City, yeah


While his guitars gently weep

Last night I couldn't fall asleep

I wanted to see the sun rise

I'm wide awake, didn't close my eyes

The noise of taxis and people talking loudly

Americans bragging proudly about their country

Skyscrapers doing shadows

Dirty papers falling on the floor like arrows

The gigantic screens glue to the buildings


I walk in these streets, while he sings

Who doesn't wanna live here?

The future shall never disappear


One minute left before before the alarm rings

In this city we'll soon all be kings

Living here is such a delight

It's almost six am and I didn't sleep last night

Head always raised looking up


Because I'm living in New York City, yeah, yeah, yeah

New, New York City, yeah, yeah

I'm living in New York City, yeah


Happily Ever After


Of course it's the wrong love (lovely)

Of course I should try again tomorrow (sorrow)

It's what everyone keeps saying to me (sorry)

But I can't help but think of you (too)


It's not in hell that I'll find my happily ever after, happily ever after

I thought you were my true love (lit it)

But I was wrong, so deeply wrong, and I regret it

It's not in hell that I'll find my happily ever after, happily ever after


You can cry me a river too

But I'll never shed another tear for you

I'll watch the blue moon while I'll still be standing along

It's not another love song, nor another sad song

Let's not make it about love again, you're the snake

Within without you my life is less opaque


It's not in hell that I'll find my happily ever after, happily ever after

I thought you were my true love (lit it)

But I was wrong, so deeply wrong, and I regret it

It's not in hell that I'll find my happily ever after, happily ever after

Feelings come and go just like a river, like a tree

You love to hate me, you live for draining the life out of me

Run away, I won't mind the lonesomeness, das uns

I need what only you can provide: your absence

We loved each other but life goes on like my whole rubbered soul

Life is made like that and no one can change that

Not even you, not even me, no, there's no one who can change that

I hate your love, I hate your smile yet I see it every time

Your handsome smile, it happens all the time

And when you smirk I always instantly feel weak

I trip then fall in love of your golden cage, antique

I can't get enough when you act though

I ought to be strong, tick the bow, that's done


Conquest


Listen to my beats, tell me this again, lovely

I shan't stop, trust me, I won't do this to you


It won't be like this all the time

Saturday evenings so sublime


Are you going to love until the night stops?

Are you going to love me until the sun shows up?


Oh, my conquest, oh, my conquest

My conquest, my conquest


Listen to my lips, tell me this please, lovely

I shan't stop, trust me, I won't do this to you


It won't be like this all the time

Will always try to make it rhyme


Are you going to love until the night stops?

Are you going to love me until the sun shows up?


Oh, my conquest, oh, my conquest

My conquest, my conquest


I Need To Know


Do you know something 'bout me?

Do you feel something for me that you keep for you?

Are you able to stay away from me?

How long will you do it?

What do you feel 'bout me?


God, I need to know, I need to know

Now, now, now, now, now, now, now

God, I need to know, I need to know

Now, now, now, now, now, now, now


Do you feel something 'bout love?

Do you care if I tell you that I love you?

Are you able to stay away from me?

How long will you do it?

What do you feel 'bout me?


God, I need to know, I need to know

Now, now, now, now, now, now, now

God, I need to know, I need to know

Now, now, now, now, now, now, now


The Ballad Of You


Remember when you left me

I switched to wine and forgot all about tea

I deserted at the mall at two in the morning

Looking like a crazy mall rat mourning

And that shop when you bought me that golden gown

I felt as royal as Her Majesty the Queen with this crown

That I wore at the gala, and that store that I broke in

For a bunch of tulips like the other day, drinking gin


I know I did bad things but you did some too

I'm done with being blue

I can't be the one who's punished

I can't be the only one who's punished


You said you loved me but then you left me

Without anything but at least I'm free

I thought you loved me but I was wrong

But I was so deeply wrong about you and this song


If you'd know what I feel about you

Well, you'd know that I still love you

If you'd know what I feel about you

Well, you'd know that I still love you


Moon And Back


It's been thirteen weeks I haven't seen you

The last time we saw each other was at the airport at night

You decided to send me a continent away

Probably thinking that'll deal with everything

But oh boy, were you wrong


Do you miss me the same way that I miss you?

Probably not


Because my love for you has gone through highs and lows

It is a rollercoaster but I still love you to the moon and back

It is a rollercoaster but I still love you to the moon and back


Ninety days have passed since we last saw each other

But I still haven't forgotten you and your little lies

Telling me everything's gonna be alright, it's not

Because you're not by my side

You're an ocean away and thousands of miles away from me


Do you miss me the same way that I miss you?

Probably not


Because my love for you has gone through highs and lows

It is a rollercoaster but I still love you to the moon and back

It is a rollercoaster but I still love you to the moon and back


Every day I think about you

Just let me buy that plane ticket

I can pack my luggage right now if you say so

And I'll be home in less than a day

I've never loved and missed and hated someone that much

At the same time in my entire life

I miss your voice, your smile lightening a whole room when you enter it

And our never lasting hugs and home


Do you miss me the same way that I miss you?

Probably not


Because my love for you has gone through highs and lows

It is a rollercoaster but I still love you to the moon and back

It is a rollercoaster but I still love you to the moon and back


I miss you, I love you forever

Hopefully I'll come back at the end of the summer

And you'll say, welcome home, Satine


Love


He bought me pink flowers on his way back from work

Even though he was tired from a hard day's night

And working eight days a week he still remembered to get me something

His smile lightened up the whole room when he said these are for you

We then listened to our favorite tracks from the sixties and seventies

We joked about the flour on the floor and that we were awful cooks

But still found it funny, laughed happily


All of this got me thinking that love is a wonderful thing

Especially when you're loved back

By the same person you dream about every night

Love is a wonderful thing especially when you hold hands

With diamond rings on them


We were walking hand in hand in the sunny and green meadow

You tied your laces or so I thought, one knee, a satin box and a question later

Will you marry me, my love?

Happy tears fell on my face like a river, I kissed you and said yes


All of this got me thinking that love is a wonderful thing

Especially when you're loved back

By the same person you dream about every night

Love is a wonderful thing especially when you hold hands

With diamond rings on them


Smoking Kills Yet I'm Still Alive (RED Main Theme)


Walking away in a dark street of Detroit

Smoking a cigarette in my bloodied hand

Dead men tell no tales, my middle name is danger

Our kiss will kill you thanks to the poison on my red lips

First I drink, then I smoke, I'm a killer queen

They call me Sexy Sadie


People tell me, haven't you heard?

Smoking kills, so I answer

Is that so? Yet I'm still alive

They tell me not for long

I say that's the whole bloody point

So go to hell and I'll meet you halfway, babe

Smoking kills yet I am still alive

Smoking kills yet I am still alive


I'm your own mafia don, happiness is a warm gun

I'll grab my gun, I'll point it towards you

You'll sweat, beg and bang, I shot you down

If you speak behind my back

You're in the right place, behind me

I'm aware I smoke more than I breath

My red high heels sounding like gunshots

As I pound up the marble staircase

In the dark corridors of my old castle

Wrote a letter, greetings from hell, live and let die


People tell me, haven't you heard?

Smoking kills, so I answer

Is that so? Yet I'm still alive

They tell me not for long

I say that's the whole bloody point

So go to hell and I'll meet you halfway, babe

Smoking kills yet I am still alive

Smoking kills yet I am still alive

Don't Cry


Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him

Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him

Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him, for him


I walked under the rain

It was this who took me back to reality

I was feeling alive with him

But it's him who broke me

We've spent moments better than incredible


I enjoyed without knowing that it's gonna stop

Now I know that every good thing have to stop

I liked this life, the shock has been distressing

But it's always like that, so


Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him

Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him

Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him, for him


Don't cry 'cause he knows that, don't cry 'cause he knows that

Don't cry 'cause he knows that, that


Lying alone on my bed

I'm thinking about every thing

That you made to me

That you made me suffer

This isn't a coincidence if you chose me


I enjoyed without knowing that it's gonna stop

Now I know that every good thing have to stop

I liked this life, the shock has been distressing

But it's always like that, so


Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him

Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him

Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him, for him


Don't cry 'cause he knows that, don't cry 'cause he knows that

Don't cry 'cause he knows that, that


I loved, I loved him, I loved him, god, I loved him

He broke me, he broke me, he broke me, god, he broke me


Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him

Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him

Don't cry, don't cry, baby, don't cry, don't cry for him, for him


Don't cry 'cause he knows that, don't cry 'cause he knows that

Don't cry 'cause he knows that, that


Sunset On The Beach


Summertime and the living's easy

Watermelons, cigs and coke tasting juicy on the beach

Listening to the best summer records we could find

The Beach Boys playing on the stereo, oh, oh, oh, oh


This wasn't gonna last

Fall will come, let's not lie

We weren't gonna last

Summer has to end

The sun will become dark

Tears will fall like the hot summer rain


We both knew that the story

Of the sunset on the beach with my lover was a short story

And I wasn't on it, and I didn't know it that you gave all you could

We were a lost hope, we were hopeless

And I'a-ma write some records describing our broken love

Always remembering the sunset on the beach with my lover

Oh, my lover


Fish are jumping and the cotton is high

Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring

Listening to the best summer tracks we could find

California Dreamin' playing on the stereo, oh, oh, oh, oh


This wasn't gonna last

Fall will come, let's not lie

We weren't gonna last

Summer has to end

The sun will become dark

Tears will fall like the hot summer rain


We both knew that the story

Of the sunset on the beach with my lover was a short story

And I wasn't on it, and I didn't know it that you gave all you could

We were a lost hope, we were hopeless

And I'a-ma write some records describing our broken love

Always remembering the sunset on the beach with my lover

Oh, my lover


Palm Trees (Blue Heart)


Under the palm trees you stole my heart

My blue, blue heart under the palm trees


Little thief wanting more

What can I offer you what's more than what I gave you?

'Cause I gave you all I had

You selfishly took all my love and dreams away

Under the hot sun and the palm trees

How can I ever forgive you?

I'm grieving our lost love

How can I ever see you again after all this time

And not fall at your knees begin you to let us another chance?


Under the palm trees you stole my heart

My blue, blue heart under the palm trees

But it all happened under the palm trees

The palm trees witnessed my heart getting broken

My tears rolling on my cheeks

Under the palm trees, they know it all too well

No remorse, the palm trees


Under the palm trees you stole my heart

My blue, blue heart under the palm trees, the palm trees


Salted Tears


Sand under the Blue Suede Shoes

Your ocean eyes looking through my soul

Dust in the air, sand in our hair, hot summer wind blowing

Makeup like back in the late sixties, being hippie

Vintage Polaroids taken on the beach yesterday

We're in our own summer universe in our beach house


Let's go swimming hand in hand

Into the blue electric water in the summer together

Hoping that I will never be crying salted tears

From the ocean because of you

Holiday, celebrate


I hope that nothing will tear us apart

We won't be young forever so let's enjoy the night together

Running in the sand heading to the waves holding hands

Sipping a daiquiri while watching the orange sun

Set on the electric ocean


Let's go swimming hand in hand

Into the blue electric water in the summer together

Hoping that I will never be crying salted tears

From the ocean because of you


Summer vacation has never been so hot

We're burning like the hot summer sun

With you and blurred summer kisses

Oh, the good times seem so good, so good

Home is so far away, we'll never go back on that plane

The corals deep down in the ocean

It's a wonderful daydream in reality


Let's go swimming hand in hand

Into the blue electric water in the summer together

Hoping that I will never be crying salted tears

From the ocean because of you


Euphoria


It's Saturday and late in the evening

Took a magic pill and suddenly I was sleeping

On a psychedelic plane like Alice and Lucy

My hand still clutching a rocks glass with whiskey


Sugar pie, honey bunch

Come trip with me while I'm drinking a scotch on the rocks

And living euphoric sunny dreams with you as we fly as high as hawks


Come and take a shower with an umbrella

Read the Psychedelic Experience novella

Wake up Her Majesty the Queen Cleopatra

And steal all her jewels but be careful with Karma

Sugar pie, honey bunch

Come trip with me while I'm drinking a scotch on the rocks

And living euphoric sunny dreams with you as we fly as high as hawks


Cali


I was driving to California when I heard your song on the radio

I felt a sudden urge of euphoria when I heard your song on the radio

I was driving to California, Cali, dreaming of it every night


It was a lovely evening with a charming dancer or should I say stranger

Don't pretend that you're my knight with an armor on your white horse

If we were playing chess it'd be checkmate

I think you can tell a lot about a person based on their cocktail of choice

I just went through hell and back and you expect me to behave like an angel?


I was driving to California when I heard your song on the radio

I felt a sudden urge of euphoria when I heard your song on the radio

I was driving to California, Cali, dreaming of it every night


My lord, you'll never guess what I heard

If I were a bird, I would be a royal eagle

I'll call you angel, it has a ring on it, don't you think?

I ain't a Bourbon fan but I'll order a No Man's Land


I was driving to California when I heard your song on the radio

I felt a sudden urge of euphoria when I heard your song on the radio

I was driving to California, Cali, dreaming of it every night


Island


Are you feeling drunken butterflies too?

I'm asking you even if I know you do

I can remember you promised me forever, you swore it, that's clever

Fourth of July, youth, freedom, liberty, sweet honey


Wild drunken nights, we're only eighteen

We're stranded on a deserted island

I realized near the tropical forest

That we're just the example of being besotted in love

Not as innocent and pure as a dove

Summer, summer, summer, summer


I ain't dancing to the music, I'm dancing barefoot to you at summertime

The nightclub is crowded tonight yet everything else is blurry

Your fragrance smells like a rainforest, green, humid and wet

Overcome with the overwhelming heat, stumbling away in the dark street

On a Saturday night, the lights dimmed

The music is nothing but a whisper


Wild drunken nights, we're only eighteen

We're stranded on a deserted island

I realized near the tropical forest

That we're just the example of being besotted in love

Not as innocent and pure as a dove

Summer, summer, summer, summer


Texan Cowboy


Road tripping in the seventies

The summer heat of Texas is making you

Sweat more than a sinner in a church

Old tight to your brown leather

After driving days on the road again

We finally arrived in a lost Texas town

Home sweet ranch, we're worn slap out


Bless your heart, honey

Heavens to my Texan Cowboy

He's nice to everyone 'cause he knows

God don't like ugly


He said hold your horses and let me love you

I reckon that's the moment I knew I loved him

Let's cut a rug tonight at the bar

Listening to loud country music

Even if we don't have no chance to do it well

Ya can't carry a tune in a bucket


Bless your heart, honey

Heavens to my Texan Cowboy

He's nice to everyone 'cause he knows

God don't like ugly


Time Machine


Go back in the roaring twenties

Listen to jack bands and swing drinking and smoking in a cabaret

Or the great fifties

Jailhouse Rock's playing, everyone's clapping and dancing

Welcome to the swinging sixties

You couldn't help falling in love with the Fab Four

Smart John, cute Paul, quiet George, funny Ringo

Now, travel to the seventies

Woodstock's long gone now and disco's arrived

Bohemian Rhapsody and Dancing Queen playing

Last arrival is the eighties

Everybody wanted to rule the world like Tears For Fears at that time


Even Hollywood's dead

I can't promise you and won't even try

To do better than Marilyn or Elvis

But here's what I can offer you

A sung love letter to the past

Love, Satine


Vegas


High rollers in sight (royal flush)

Let's hit the jackpot, baby

We're staying here the whole night

And the morning too (four of a kind)

Get your poker face out (straight)

Living in the seventies (flush)

Life's easy with you, my dear


Never leaving the good old days

Elvis is singing live tonight

At The International Hotel

Bought tickets, let's get the party started

Nevada dreaming (straight flush)

High rollers everywhere in sight

Tuxedo and red gown (three of a kind)

We just hit the jackpot, baby


Staying alive just for the night

And the morning too (full house)

Get your poker face out (high card)

We're living in the seventies (pair)

Life's easy with you (two pair)

I feel burning flames in my heart

When I see you smiling at me


Set the mood, the twenties and swing

If you've nothing, you've nothing to lose

Darling, play autumn in the four seasons

I will live fast then die young

And leave a good-looking corpse

Drinking French champagne and Italian red wine

One for the money, two for the show


Hit the road Jack, and don't you come back no more

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas


Universe


Live from Venus and Mars

Please give a warm welcome to Satine Queeni


Stargazing while flying away like a bee

You're my own daydream wannabe

Get me on my brand new shiny starship

I'm not shy when it comes to feeling out of place

Drops of a thin rain falling on us

The sky is crying, it's so gloomy

We were watching the glittering starlight

And the stars blinking in the dark sky

There's no such thing as a light

Stars are millions of blazing diamonds

It felt like an eternity but the watch only

Ticked a few times and showed seconds

It made me understand something

We shall all become a phoenix

In the universe


God Bless The Good Old Days


You pull me in closer

Allowing me to rest my head

On your chest where I can hear

The steady beat of your heart

It's so comforting, it's my personal lullaby

Keep it classy in Hollywood's good old days

The glamor of the seaside of the West Coast


Can I go back in time to Hollywood's golden days

And live there forever like a frozen clock?

God bless the good old days

My body is a map of Los Angeles

Love makes us stupid but my lover isn't

If I can dream about you and about us

Then we can love each other forevermore


Keep it classy in Hollywood's good old days

The glamor of the seaside of the West Coast


Can I go back in time to Hollywood's golden days

And live there forever like a frozen clock?

God bless the good old days


Chant Hare Krishna, Hare Hare Krishna


B&W TV


You entered the room without even knocking

I didn't know you even had the key

You said, well I paid for it

Darling, you broke my heart and yet

The tiniest part of me wonders if maybe it's for the best

My goodness, you're the greatest

I care about you more than you care about yourself

I have no sense of self-preservation


And I wish I was the pretty girl on the black and white TV

Oh, darling, do I wish I was the perfect girl

On the black and white TV, yes, yes, yes, I do


As you'll grow up, you'll realize that monsters are not under your bed

But instead, they're on it

I know I have to be as bad as you in order to survive against you

So I expected the unexpected

Always trying to find beauty in brokenness, miserably failed at it


And I wish I was the pretty girl on the black and white TV

Oh, darling, do I wish I was the perfect girl

On the black and white TV, yes, yes, yes, I do


Someone asked me what it's like to be angry against the world

It's horrendous

All skills learned through heartbreak and survival

This lie does not sound like the truth so hush little baby don't you cry

Closed mouths will never get fed

Sometimes they all look at me I feel like their their sworn enemy


And I wish I was the pretty girl on the black and white TV

Oh, darling, do I wish I was the perfect girl

On the black and white TV, yes, yes, yes, I do


To The Movies


Late night drive-in movies with you, yes sir, I can boogie

Sitting on your red Chevrolet in the July heat in Hollywoodland

Watching Monroe, Taylor, Hayworth, Dean, Hepburn and Bardot

You could have been Scott Fitzgerald's inspiration for The Great Gatsby


Let's go hand in hand to the movies tonight

It's a love letter to Los Angeles

It's a love letter to the good old days


Waiting for you at the Long Beach Airport

Driving on the West Coast down to San Diego and the Golden State Highway

I've been to Broadway, it was magical on a late Friday

You're so popular, they made you at Madame Tussauds, Hollywood


Let's go hand in hand to the movies tonight

It's a love letter to Los Angeles

It's a love letter to the good old days


Past Life


Elvis, convince me I'm dreaming as I put my head on your shoulder

If you were to leave this wonderful world before I do

I'll go cry on your grave

And put with a shivering hand nine daisies

As white as the cold snow and yellow as the sun


We were meant to be together

But unfortunately only in a past life


If you swear to stand by me, I'll swear to stand by your body

Even if the time's gone, I'll be all alone, the clock is ticking

Enjoy while you still can without crying

Frank and Nancy come back in time

Johnny Cash is crying

It's better if we walk the line together in our own ring of fire


My darling, before you go

Hold me in your comforting arms at least one last time

Dear friend, I learned that good things always end

Sometimes I can't help but feel like a motherless child

The good old days were wild


Tell me, old master, how I can go back in time and be your muse?

Paint me, my dress, my hair, my nostalgia, my sadness and everything else

Clock still ticking, take my breath and tears for fears away

There's only one way for two lovers

And I'm scared of how it's going to end


Everyday is mirthless, I'm petrified

It makes me breathless wherein I'll die after you


Whisper sweet words to me

Kiss me, goodbye, baby

Sweet dreams, honey

I fall asleep and dream, on a land

Of you holding my hand


We were meant to be together

But unfortunately only in a past life


Pattie (The Muse)


In the heart of London town

Where the streets are paved with sound

There's a girl with eyes so bright

She's the star in the night

With flowers in her hair

And love in every stare

She danced beneath the psychedelic sky

Her name's on every tongue

In every song that's sung

She's the muse of every chord

In every story ever told


Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la

Pattie, oh, Pattie

With your laughter like a symphony

You dance in the moonlight

Captivating all who see

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la


With a smile that lights the sky

And a grace that can't be denied

She's the one that stole their hearts

With her love, she played her part

From the days of swinging sixties

To the heights of fame and glory

She walked with legends hand in hand

In the world of rock 'n' roll, she'd stand


Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la

Pattie, oh, Pattie

With your laughter like a symphony

You dance in the moonlight

Captivating all who see

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la


Peace & Love


One, two, three, four

In 1967, the Beatles sang all you need is love

In 1969, John was singing about peace and love

In 1973, George was singing about love and peace on earth

The same year, John was singing make love not war

I know you've heard it before

Chanting the mantra, peace on earth

Imagine all the people living life in peace

Jai Guru Deva Om


This is my peace song, our love song

Spread it to everybody


War is over if you want it

If I can dream like Elvis about peace

What the world needs now is love, sweet love

Kennedy once said

Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind

Oh, what's going on?

Put flowers in your guns

Let's all just believe in Flower Power

The only free thing in the world is love, love, love


This is my peace song, our love song

Spread it to everybody


Come Josephine In My Flying Machine (*Alfred Bryan)


Oh! Say! Let us fly, dear

Where, kid? To the sky, dear

Oh you flying machine

Jump in, Miss Josephine

Ship ahoy! Oh joy, what a feeling

Where, boy? In the ceiling

Ho, High, Hoopla we fly

To the sky so high


Come Josephine in my flying machine

Going up she goes! Up she goes!

Balance yourself like a bird on a beam

In the air she goes! There she goes!

Up, up, a little bit higher

Oh! My! The moon is on fire

Come Josephine in my flying machine

Going up, all on, Goodbye!


One, two, now we're off, dear

Say you pretty soft, dear

Whoa! dear don't hit the moon

No, dear, not yet, but soon

You for me, Oh Gee! you're a fly kid

Not me! I'm a sky kid

See I'm up in the air

About you for fair


Come Josephine in my flying machine,

Going up she goes! Up she goes!

Balance yourself like a bird on a beam

In the air she goes! There she goes!

Up, up, a little bit higher

Oh! My! The moon is on fire

Come Josephine in my flying machine

Going up, all on, Goodbye!


Les Lacs Du Connemara - Connemara Lakes (*Jacques Revaux, Michel Sardou, Pierre Delanoë)


French Version


Terre brûlée au vent

Des landes de pierres

Autour des lacs, c'est pour les vivants

Un peu d'enfer, le Connemara

Des nuages noirs qui viennent du nord

Colorent la terre, les lacs, les rivières

C'est le décor du Connemara

Au printemps suivant, le ciel irlandais était en paix

Maureen a plongé nue dans un lac du Connemara

Sean Kelly s'est dit "je suis catholique", Maureen aussi

L'église en granit de Limerick, Maureen a dit "oui"

De Tipperary, Barry-Connelly et de Galway

Ils sont arrivés dans le comté du Connemara

Y avait les Connors, les O'Connolly, les Flaherty du Ring of Kerry

Et de quoi boire trois jours et deux nuits

Là-bas, au Connemara

On sait tout le prix du silence

Là-bas, au Connemara

On dit que la vie, c'est une folie

Et que la folie, ça se danse

Terre brûlée au vent

Des landes de pierres

Autour des lacs, c'est pour les vivants

Un peu d'enfer, le Connemara

Des nuages noirs qui viennent du nord

Colorent la terre, les lacs, les rivières

C'est le décor du Connemara

On y vit encore au temps des Gaëls et de Cromwell

Au rythme des pluies et du soleil

Aux pas des chevaux

On y croit encore aux monstres des lacs

Qu'on voit nager certains soirs d'été

Et replonger pour l'éternité

On y voit encore

Des hommes d'ailleurs venus chercher

Le repos de l'âme et pour le cœur, un goût de meilleur

L'on y croit encore

Que le jour viendra, il est tout près

Où les Irlandais feront la paix autour de la Croix

Là-bas, au Connemara

On sait tout le prix de la guerre

Là-bas, au Connemara

On n'accepte pas

La paix des Gallois

Ni celle des rois d'Angleterre


English Version


Earth scorched in the wind

Stone moors

Around the lakes, it's for the living

A bit of hell, Connemara

Black clouds coming from the north

Color the earth, the lakes, the rivers

This is the setting of Connemara

The following spring the Irish skies were at peace

Maureen dived naked in a Connemara lake

Sean Kelly said "I'm Catholic", Maureen too

Limerick granite church, Maureen said 'yes'

From Tipperary, Barry-Connelly and Galway

They arrived in Connemara County

There were the Connors, the O'Connollys, the Flahertys of the Ring of Kerry

And enough to drink for three days and two nights

Over there in Connemara

We know the price of silence

Over there in Connemara

They say life is madness

And madness can be danced

Earth scorched in the wind

Stone moors

Around the lakes, it's for the living

A bit of hell, Connemara

Black clouds coming from the north

Color the earth, the lakes, the rivers

This is the setting of Connemara

We still live there in the time of the Gaels and Cromwell

To the rhythm of the rains and the sun

In the footsteps of the horses

We still believe in lake monsters

That we see swimming on certain summer evenings

And dive again for eternity

We still see

Men from elsewhere came to seek

Rest for the soul and for the heart, a taste of better

We still believe in it

That the day will come, it's very close

Where the Irish will make peace around the Cross

Over there in Connemara

We know the full price of war

Over there in Connemara

We do not accept

The peace of the Welsh

Nor that of the kings of England
