ANY TIME
(LINDER / STAUDINGER)
Any time
We take the chances, baby
Any time
You take my hand, baby
You come along dear
With your devil shining eyes
Stretch out your arms at me
Make me lost in your smile
Any time
You reach out for me
Any time
You´re so hot I see
Making love with you is like
Climb a mountain high
Sweat shimmers on our skins
In the candle light
Your skin´s so soft and warm
As smooth as it can be
Whenever you are in my arms
I dig in you
And you dig in me
Just a moment
Just a moment of love
Nothing else can ever be like that
Making love, making love just love
Is kind of a celebration act
Your skin´s so soft and warm
As smooth as it can be
Whenever you are in my arms
I dig in you
And you dig in me
Just a moment
Just a moment of love
Nothing else can ever be like that
Making love, making love just love
Is kind of a celebration act
SMALL TALK
(LINDER)
Small talk small talk
Small small
Small talk small talk
I´m standing around
the bench
Bubble my words
They don’t make no sense
Well I´m
Tryin´ to fill
The lack of friends
That meaningless gossip
It never ends
Small talk small talk
Small small
Small talk small talk
Hey,
I won´t talk no more
Hey hey,
I won´t talk no more
No
I won´t talk no more,
no more, no more
I said
No, no
I won´t talk
I don´t wanna talk no more
Small talk small talk
Small small
Small talk small talk
HOW CAN I KNOW
(LINDER / STAUDINGER)
Yeah sometimes
It´s not that easy
Bad bad vibes
Fillin´ the air
Unspoken words
A sigh of despair
Lifted shoulders
Aren´t really fair
How can I know
What´s in your head
How can I know
If you don´t tell
Unheard voices
Hangin´ in the air
Downcast eyes
Lookin´ nowhere
What did I do
What did I do
To bring you down
You know how much
I love you
So what´s your doubts
How can I know
What´s in your head
How can I know
If you don´t tell
How can I know
Why you´re looking so sad
So sad, girl
How can I know
It´s driving me mad
BOOGALOO
(CUTIC / LINDER / STAUDINGER)
Gimme that fever
Boogaloo time, yeah
Gimme that fever
Boogaloo time, yeah
Down near Verona
I´ve seen the
Number-one boogie act
There was a dancer
At least three times my weight
Like a bull in
A bull in a rodeo
When he starts movin´
He never stops
Three-fifty pound
Arollin´ and ashakin´
Slightly ´bove the ground
I thought the stage´s abreakin´
Like a bull in
A bull in a rodeo
When he starts movin´
He never stops
He turned me on man
I couldn´t do a thing but dance
But he kept movin´
The time I was half dead
Like a bull in
A bull in a rodeo
When he starts movin´
He never stops
BURN THE UNIFORMS
(CUTIC / STAUDINGER)
I had a dream
Last night
Someone came
Said “it´s alright”
He said all soldiers
Of all armies
Lay down their arms
They stop to fight
I had a dream
The mighty in the world
They can say
What they want
Tell their armies
To go for war
Their orders
Won´t be heard
Burn the uniforms
all soldiers
Burn the uniforms
Burn the uniforms
I had a dream
All the missiles
Disappeared
Over night
Not one contract
Must be signed
To make an end
To all of the fights
I had a dream
The mighty in the world
They can say
What they want
Tell their armies
To go for war
Their orders
Won´t be heard
Burn the uniforms
All soldiers
Burn the uniforms
You won´t need
them anymore
Burn the uniforms
Let them go
Go up in smoke
Burn the uniforms
Burn the uniforms
MORNING SUN
(LINDER/STAUDINGER)
Woke up with troubles
In my head
Out in the streets
No one to meet
All I´m doing
Is wait for the day
Yesterdays problems
Are fading away
In the morning sun
In the morning sun
Hey, hey
In the morning sun
Life has just begun
Hey, hey
In the morning sun
Life has just begun
Down at the beach
The tide´s rolling in
Tasting the breeze
I forget everything
For a change
The dogs don´t bark
A sleepy town
Tries a new start
Hey, hey
In the morning sun
In the morning sun
WASTING TIME
(LINDER / STAUDINGER)
Wasting time
Hanging round in bars
Drinking wine
I never get enough
Getting high
Listening to the sound
Signs are high
I know I´m wasting time
Come on, Sam
Let´s get out of here
I feel it´s high time
Hey, ey, buddy
Don´t you feel
The same as me
We´re only wasting time
Lean on me
That I can lean on you
Give me strength
I´ll do the same for you
Hold on, Sam
We´d better leave now
Before we skate
Down on that
marble ground
Come on, Sam
Let´s get out of here
I feel it´s high time
Hey ey, buddy
Don´t you feel
The same as me
We´re only wasting time
EVOLUTION
(LINDER / STAUDINGER)
I hang around
Wasting my time
Bubbling words
Of small talk
For sure I wanted
To change so much
Not only burn the uniforms
I came back home
From far away
I knew
Something was wrong
My friends
What´d happened to them
But it was just the time
Going on
Sometimes I´m
Nothing but happy
Being me
Being alive
Then there´s times
When I´m all down
Heartsick paralyzed
But when I get up
And see the light
Of the morning sun
I know that
Any time
I am on my way
Going on, going on
It´s just part
in the evolution
all I do
all I say
a tiny part
in the evolution
but I know
I´m on my way
I´ve been in love
So deeply
With fever, you know
But golden chains
Are not made for me
How could you know
Sometimes I fell
So important
Think I´ve got
Something to say
Then I come down
Feet on the ground
And my size fades away
Fades away, fades away
It´s just part
In the evolution
All I do all I say
A tiny part
In the evolution
But I know
I´m on my way
It´s just part
In the evolution
And still I´m on my way

Frankie stopped to sing
And Mike don´t wanna play
Luzy never rings
And Phil he went away
Mark has changed his number
No connection on the phone
TIFI changed the drummer
Louis is far from home
Harry´s got no job
I meet him here and there
Sam´s now in the jungle
And I, I´m in great despair
What happened to them
While I´ve been away
Charlie stopped his studies
He´s working in a bar
Sue is ever smiling
I think she´s deep in love
Joe told he is married
A child in his arms
Robbie started gambling
Lost, lost his brandnew car
Pete is in the army
Wearing a uniform
Bernie´s got no money
Tell me
Tell me what went wrong
What happened to them
While I´ve been away
