Stupid sales manager, I hate you with your brown shoes, green suit and fast car
And all the stupid managers, you don't give a damn,
you don't see I'm working so hard
the doctor says that I may get a burnout
doctor doctor doctor says that I may get a burnout
Center of the universe, you think you are a big shot,
but all you do is blowing hot air
You’re such a stupid manager, ‘cause I’m breaking down, you know, and you
really don’t care
the doctor says that I will get a burnout
doctor doctor doctor says that I will get a burnout
the doctor says that I may have a burnout
doctor doctor doctor says I surely got a burnout

Heroes

She wakes up in the middle of the night so many times that I lost count
She doesn’t complain, still looking good in the morning to be found
And laughing and doing her best to get around
And I know that she’s happy with every human sound
As he sits in the right seat of the car he’s getting a call
Gotta hurry to get on time to help a guy about to fall
It’s a fireman doing his job in a burning mall
He wants to protect them all, rescue them all
She’s a hero
He’s a hero
They’re all heroes
And they never let you down
Every day he’s going to his job and gives his best
Never knew that his working environment was a test
He stood alone, never had a moment of rest
A burnout as a result the ultimate quest
She’s a hero
He’s a hero
They’re all heroes
And they never let you down

Little Miss Difficulty

Little Miss Difficulty the brightest little woman that I ever did see
Little Miss Difficulty your mind has grown but your heart ain’t free
Little Miss Difficulty how can you stand on your own two feet
Ain’t no sunshine when your days begin
When you feel the love around, you don’t let it in
Little Miss Difficulty you never seem to miss out on your misery
Little Miss Difficulty though you try to cease the opportunities
Little Miss Difficulty making a mountain out of a molehill is your specialty
Ain’t no sunshine when your days begin
When you feel the love around, you don’t let it in
When you feel the love, come on and let it in
Love what is Rethink your thoughts and change, and
Love what is, love what is,
Rethink your thoughts and change the world
Little Miss Difficulty we hope there was a manual with your release
Little Miss Difficulty you’re constantly debating, are you ever at ease
Little Miss Difficulty it’s time somebody told you ‘bout the birds and bees
Ain’t no sunshine when your days begin
When you feel the love around, you don’t let it in
When you feel the love, come on and let it in
Love what is Rethink your thoughts and change, and
Love what is, love what is,
Rethink your thoughts and change the world

Light in the morning
05:06
|

|
You chose to go away, so you told me on a rainy saturday
Quit your job and pack your bags, 'cause I'm taking you to the USA
So I quit my job and I packed my bags, told the kids about our plans
You chose to go away, exactly five years ago today
You made the walls fall down on me when you left your love, your kids, your family
And only now I've come to terms and forever I will stand
I didn't know then, but I know it now, that, everything comes to an end
'cause you were looking for the light in the morning,
Light in the morning
Light in the morning
if love shines a light, why couldn't I be the light in the morning
When you chose to go away, oh I couldn't help but feeling so betrayed
Because once we had it good, but then you left me, oh I wish I understood
But you refused to take my hand, I will never understand
I didn't know then, but I know it now, that, everything comes to an end
'cause you were looking for the light in the morning,
Light in the morning
Light in the morning
if love shines a light, why couldn't I be the light in the morning
why couldn't I be the light?
In your darkest night, in your darkest hour,
oh baby I had the power to show you the light in the morning
And only now I've come to terms, and forever I will stand
I didn't know then, but I know it now, that, everything comes to an end

You don't listen to me
06:09
|

|
Hold on the mirror, put up a smile
That’s all you have to do
Talk to my finger, because my hand
Is not good enough for you
You‘ve got your grey hair, but no respect
So spray and paint it blond or black
Look at the blackboard, in front of you
It says please don’t call me back
It says please don’t call me back
And I know, whatever I’m gonna say
You don’t listen to me anyway
I’m a member, I serve the queen
And all I say is true
Drinking whiskey, not shaken pure
Nothing changed, nothing new
Nothing changed, nothing new
And I know, whatever I’m gonna say
You don’t listen to me anyway
Republicans choosing red
Democrats voting right
And no one who regrets
Well it’s time for a fight
Watch the tele, the volume up
The president is on the screen
Soon everything’s better, hear my words
And his face turns green
Yes his face turns green
And I know, whatever I’m gonna say
You don’t listen to me anyway

Abusing people's faith
04:40
|
|||
|
So many borders on this globe
Drawn on maps, fading hope
And if you look behind those walls
You understand, those silent calls
Abusing people’s faith
Growing large, growing hate, there’s no room for fair debate
Abusing people’s faith
They don’t tell, they don’t show
There’s only one thing they know, they don’t know
There’s a woman in the sand
And all the men, a stone in each hand
And the crowd watching the game
No escape, a blasting flame
Abusing people’s faith
Growing large, growing hate, there’s no room for fair debate
Abusing people’s faith
They don’t tell, they don’t show, there’s only one thing they know

Today is not a good day
04:28
|

You are smart you are beautiful you're funny and you're kind, and I'm missing you
Somehow lately you always seem to be on my mind, do you miss me too?
But today is not a good day
When I met you I just couldn't believe my eyes, such a pretty face
You started talking, words like honey, I was caught by surprise, something is taking place
But today is not a good day,
'cause yesterday our ships sailed away, and now
I miss you
I am walking in the shadow of a wandering star, looking for some peace
In the land of the lost I will be winning the war, of lost opportunities
But today is not a good day,
'cause yesterday your ship sailed away, and now
I miss you
I don't know where to go when it's late at night
I don't know where I'm going when it's late at night
I don't wanna go to the wrong side of town, gotta stay in my own neighbourhood
I miss you

I want to write you a card
Cause it’s been so long, make a brand new start
Curious how you look today
I wonder why you closed that door
Leave it all behind, because you seemed so sure
And I believed you’re going all the way
You’re dreaming now in an empty bed
Maybe wonder what, he might have said
Or is it all just peace in your head
And you’re still in shape the strength to win
Many miles ahead, like it’s always been
Everything has been said
Has been said, been said
You leave behind an uncertain future
You leave behind all that you know
Found new space, so where do you go
Will you miss it tomorrow
Will you miss it
You settle down forgotten fast
Because your brain decides who stays in the cast
singing lyrics of the past
and every day new pics are made
the old once gone you don’t know the date
and in the end it all will fade
It all will fade, just fade
You leave behind an uncertain future
You leave behind all that you know
Found new space, so where do you go
Will you miss it tomorrow
Will you miss it

Woman in blue
03:36

I can't imagine anyone more beautiful, than you tonight
I can't imagine anyone more beautiful, than you look tonight
I must be the luckiest man, because I am
near you, I could almost hold you
I can't imagine anyone more beautiful, and wearing blue
I can't imagine anyone more beautiful, than you dressed in blue
I must be the happiest man, because I am
Dancing, dancing right beside you
Oh I'm dancing, look how I'm dancing
I heard somebody say, “who's the woman in blue dancing beside you, you lucky fool”
You're the woman in blue, shining beside me
Your beauty enlights me, your looks seem to guide me
'cause you're beautiful
I can't imagine anyone more beautiful, than you tonight
I can't imagine anyone more beautiful, than you look tonight
I must be the luckiest man, because I am
near you, I could almost hold you
Ooh, woman in blue

I'm in love again
03:34
|
|||
|
All this time I felt the rhythm but the words won’t rhyme
When I’m with you I can only mime
Oh what a feeling it’s just like I’m in love again
On my own all I do is hang my head and moan
When I’m not with you I’m a rolling stone
Oh I really hate to be alone
I’m in love again
I’m in love again, but not for the first time
I’m in love again, but not for the first time
No no no, not for the first time, no no no, not for the first time
Can’t you see that I would fly if not for gravity
All the stars they seem to shine on me
Oh you saved my life from misery
I’m in love again

Bye bye burnout
03:45
|

You know it started with irritation
Until we parted
And now I’m filled with inspiration (on the 14th floor)
I am so thrilled
No one controls, no one controls, no one controls me
I set my mind, I set my mind, I set my mind free
I do what I wanna do now, bye bye burnout
I’m going downtown with motivation
The final countdown
Talked to my jobcoach
Reintegration (on the 14th floor) is my new approach
No one controls, no one controls, no one controls me
I set my mind, I set my mind, I set my mind free
I do what I wanna do now, bye bye burnout
No stupid sales manager controls you (bye bye bye bye burnout)
No one is messing with your mind (bye bye burnout)
I just live my life
My way
No one controls, no one controls, no one controls me
I set my mind, I set my mind, I set my mind free
I do what I wanna do now, bye bye burnout
