Alphaville - Life on Mars

Tekst :

It s a god awful small affair
to the girl with the mousy hair
but her mother is yelling no
and her father has told her to go
but her friend is nowhere to be seen
as she walks through her sunken dream
to the seat with the clearest view
and she s hooked to the silver screen
but the film is a saddening bore
cause she s lived it ten times or more
she could spit at the eyes of fools
as they ask her to focus on
sailors fighting in the dancehall
oh man, look at those cavemen go
it s the freakiest show
take a look at the lawman beating up the wrong guy
wough man, wonder if he ll ever know
he s in the best selling show
is there life on mars?
it s on amerika s tortured brow
and mickey mouse has grown up a cow
now the workers have struck for fame
cause lennon s on sale again
see the mice in their million hordes
from ibiza to the norfolk broades
rule britannia is out of bounds to my mother,
my dog and clowns
but the film is a saddening bore
cause i wrote it ten times before
it s about to be writ again as i ask you to focus on
sailors...

    We come out at night

    Black and gray clouds willow in the balance as the sun falls.
    Rain plays a heart warming tune, on the pavement.
    Emotions stir.
    A feeling of warmness, compassion, fullness, I feel at home.
    Disguised by surroundings.
    As the torn and left in the gutter seek vengeance on their mistreated lives....

    Tonight

    Who you gonna run to
    Now your ass is on the line
    Who you think you re fooling
    We ain t got the time
    Don t try to tell me
    Who was wrong or right
    We don t see eye to eye
    There...

    You are my heart

    How did I ever get to here
    Why do I need you
    Why do I have to cry these tears
    Where do they lead to
    I used to be so strong alone
    When I was standing on my own
    Now I don t know...

    Before we say goodbye

    Time stands still
    As you turn away
    All my thoughts run wild
    For a word to say
    Should I reach for you
    Could it be too late
    Can we give it one more try

    Here we stand
    On the border line
    And I search my heart
    For a reason...

    Schnell schnell

    Schnell schnell, rette mich
    Hier ist es unheimlich
    Und ich verstehe nicht
    was hier mit mir und überhaupt passiert
    Schnell schnell, kann nichts mehr seh´n
    Ich weiß nicht, wo ich bin
    Ich fühl mich so alleine
    Ist niemand da, ich sehe keinen
