mr caveman light a candle for me
so when I come around I can see (you)
you know my eyes are used to the light of day
but in your cave, without a candle
I wouldn't find my way
mr caveman what's that painting on the wall
is that a buffalo or a waterfall
i'm having trouble with that candle you lit
you're quite an artist
but i can't see shit
mr caveman i got a present for you
it's called jacuzzi now see what it's supposed to do
it's like a bathtub but when you turn it on
there will be bubbles all around you
'till the break of dawn
mr caveman i thought it perfect for you
just hit that button when you're sad and blue
recharge your batteries from time to time
that's why i think that a jacuzzi
will do just fine
chorus:
mr caveman change the world for me
be a brave man and set us free
mr caveman spin the wheel of time
show us the way man, 'cause we're too blind

heat

there's a book that's always scared me
so i put it on the shelf
it told me to fear god above
and to crucify myself
so i went into the dessert
to get some thinking done
but i couldn't stand the fucking heat
and i blamed it on the sun
at school they tell you friction
is responsible for heat
but what they didn't tell you
is that it's something we don't need
it's good to know your enemy
and baby, i know mine
it's the heat that i could do without
kill the heat and i'll feel fine
chorus:
everybody's hurting
but no one wants to bleed
it's not the cross that killed sweet jesus
it was the fucking heat

killer
03:38
|
|
||
many many years ago
in a land far away in a world we don't know
lived a man all alone on a hill
and he dreamed of a world where there's no need to kill
so one day he took a knife
he cut his own throat and ended his life
made his dream finally come true
and entered a world without me and you
we're the killers we accuse
we are the ones who steal and abuse
bring all the gallows and chairs you can find
let's get rid of ourselves leave nobody behind
chorus:
there's a killer in you there's a killer in me
there's a gun in my hand that nobody can see
i was the one who strangled your wife
watch out or i'll take your life

the river
05:46
|
|

there's a river and the water flowing gently makes me blind
there's no fish though the memory blows my mind
muddy river take me back in time i think i've lost my way
suck me down, here on earth i cannot stay

elegy

pass around that bottle, cause we all need a drink
some ships sail the ocean and other vessels sink
it's been a sad day, but this is not the end
sometimes all you need, is a bottle and a friend
i can see those dark clouds in your eyes
and i still can't believe that they're selling us these lies
but we buy them, it's cheaper in the end
sometimes all you need, is a bottle and a friend
people let me tell you there's no black and there's no white
there isn't even darkness, there isn't even light
we don't exist, we all just pretend
and that's why all you need sometimes, is a bottle and a friend
chorus:
walk around in circles, turn around in shame
i try to convince myself, you didn't die in vain

liquid laughter
05:51
|
|
||
dripping from my lips - liquid laughter
and it's dripping on my hips - and i feel better now
my soul is the ocean - and i can see it when the sun shines on the water
i'm alone, i'm alone

green green grass
04:09
|
|
||
the only goal i have my love is to die before you do
lie down on the green green grass and touch a drop of dew
feel my body fall to dust and hear the willow weep
so i don't need to be afraid to watch you fall asleep
the only goal i have my love is to die before you do
i know it sounds selfish, but what am i supposed to do
i'm just being honest, i don't wanna lie to you
i become transparent, now baby, look me through
so when you take your final rest i'll be already waiting
in heaven or in hell my love i'll be anticipating
your embrace and your smile
the two tings i like most in my whole life
i guess that's the reason why
chorus:
i couldn't stand the pain
'cause i, i'd surely go insane

mars mushrooms BY, Germany
Die intergalaktische Alliteration "mars mushrooms" experimentiert sich seit 1998 durch das Reich der vielen gezupften, geblasenen und geschlagenen Töne. Die musikalischen Wurzeln der Band liegen in der amerikanischen Jambandszene bei Bands wie Grateful Dead, Phish und Disco Biscuits. Ins Deutsche übersetzt würde man mars mushrooms wohl dem Genre des Post-Krautrock zuordnen. ... more
