SIDE A

Cycle of the 5th
Instrumental

Seven Eleven
music/words: Carsten Bohn

let me take you home with me tonite
I'm the kind of guy to treat you right
we can spend a night or two insane
but after all the game and statement
would be invane

love is on the doorstep of our time
beauty inspiration of your mime
you're smiling like a christmas cake
your makeup is a complete fake
get the question, see the point
and Susi roll another joint
and help me out of my loneliness
'cause most of my time is a wasted mess

six bars lonely
i'm only
filling up the holes

here's another chance to picture time
i don't mean the bloody bombs and crime
think about the words that are used by others
the politicians,priests and gods and others

love is on the doorstep of our time
beauty inspiration of your mime
you're smiling like a christmas cake
your makeup is a complete fake
get the question, see the point
and Susi roll another joint
and help me out of my loneliness
'cause most of my time is a wasted mess

six bars lonely
i'm only
filling up the holes

would you take me home with you tonite
you're the kind of girl to treat me right
we can spend a night or two insane
but after all the game and statement
would be invane

Amptown City Dues
music/words:carsten bohn

well here we go again
and i'm riding on a train
and i'm leaving all my troubles behind
well i'm miles ahead
with my mind still in bed
i think i'll get myself together in time

well 'em amptown city dues
they got to be paid today
well buddy said they can' afford
to wait another day

we're no good for contracts
just wasting time
easy rollin' baby isn't worth a simple dime
they ask me for conceptions
but what can i say
all i wanna do i get on the road and play

'cause 'em amptown city dues
they got to be paid today
well buddy said they can' afford
to wait another day

can i rent another
electric super phasing chorus small stone ?
'cause i might meet a guitarist
who's a thousand miles from home
peter and burkhardt
they said it's okay
even if i can't afford
to pay todaychorus'cause 'em amptown city dues
they got to be paid today
well buddy said they can' afford
to wait another day

well i will find a way
to get our music through to you
even if i have
a million crazy things to do
cryin' out loud
sometimes we shout
simply trying to tell you
what our love is all about

'cause 'em amptown city dues
they got to be paid today
well buddy said they can' afford
to wait another day

Do Me No Paradise
music/words: Carsten Bohn

i don't get what you just told me
and i don't think that you can hold me back
from thinking that you're telling lies
i don't believe this world is a paradise

i have seen you in your good days
and i heard you say that bad days
come and go
like waves inside your weiry mind
yes i believe you've seen
the better times

i don't get what you just told me
and i don't think that you can hold me back
from thinking that you're telling lies
i don't believe this world is a paradise

Tabu La Rasa
Instrumental
SIDE B

Excuse My Weakness
music/words: carsten bohn

hello darkness
here am i am again
hello sweetness
in your taste
to please the men
i'm willing to be with you
from here to " begin the sin "

freeway-roller
travellin' on the line
's trying to reach the point
of the impression
"i feel fine"
and i'ld like to turn the road
to a different view

i'm feelin' kinda empty
when you're gone
yes i'm feeling kind of lonely
when i'm on my own
and i hate the date
with a playmate
hanging on phoney lines
no name or game can please me
and i'm not feeling fine
i'm feelin' kinda empty
when you're gone
yes i'm feeling kind of lonely
when i'm on my own
and i hate the date
with a playmate
hanging on a phoney line

and i'm
sittin' on a hot bag
trying to cool it down
i'm thinking of you're hot legs
from heaven to the ground

whenever i'm with you
i begin to loose control
there's no logic for the moment
ain't story to be told
no word has found the sense
for this way to feel
writing songs like this
is a special thing to do
'cause you're inspired my by the feeling
or whatelse would you do
and i like to turn the road
to a different view

chorus...

i'm feelin' kinda empty
when you're gone
yes i'm feeling kind of lonely
when i'm on my own
and i hate the date
with a playmate
hanging on phoney lines
no name or game can please me
and i'm not feeling fine
i'm feelin' kinda empty
when you're gone
yes i'm feeling kind of lonely
when i'm on my own
and i hate the date
with a playmate
hanging on a phoney line

Disco Cisco
music/words: Carsten Bohn

well you know it was a friday night
or was it saturday evening ?
when all the other guys in town
get hot on the sleeves

they change from work to pleasure
trying to catch that girl of their dream
the power and temptation
of the brother bee gees

sliding thorugh the night
hooked on the illusion
dancing off their asses
with a light confusion

virgin on the billboard
brought you up to a thousand degrees
the power and temptation
and the brother bee gees
they're singing you should stay alive
as if you wanted to die
(oh no,i don't want to die )
just a couple of months ago
they told you "robin fly"

sliding thorugh the night
hooked on the illusion
dancing off their asses
with a light confusion


i'm not going out tonite
i don't wanna see the light
i've got other things to do
i'm not going out tonite
i don't wanna see the light
maybe you can do it too ?

Mary Truebadur
music/words: carsten bohn

mary i love you more
than i ever loved a woman before
and it feels like i am fallling into a dream

i used to laugh at crazy lovers
but loving you recovers
hidden memories from the shade
and i know it's not too late

i will love you til my day is done
i will love you til my race is run
even if there's no reply
and i'm here sitting wondering why
there's no reason that can make me change

you asked me for a letter
but i feel i can do better
than writing simple words
onto a line
i wrote this song for you instead
wishing you where here in bed
making love together
til we fade
i know it's not too late

i will love you til my day is done
i will love you til my race is run
even if there's no reply
and i'm here sitting wondering why
there's no reason that can make me change

you said i have to go my way
but i might be coming back someday
oh my love i hope it will be soon
'cause when i see your picture on the wall
i feel the love i can't recall to hate
i know it's not too late

i will love you til my day is done
i will love you til my race is run
even if there's no reply
and i'm here sitting wondering why
there's no reason that can make me change

Mother Goose Shoes
music/words:carsten bohn

ride on
carry on
you are the sense of your lifetime
ride on
carry on
there's no one else to say it's the right time
shine on
carry on
don't leave no space for a bad dime
but i heard them say
that guys like me
won't have a chance to win
is it true that some of us
cannot feel the romance
to show the grin ?
