Coffee Shop Psycho
02:58
|
|||
|
He sits in the corner never looking up
Hand twitches by the side of an old tea cup
He looks all alone but there’s a beast below
And he’s coming up for another show
All that he wanted was a nice cup of tea
But the world turned against him, didn’t hear his plea
The milk was sour the water warm, the sugar bowl was dry
It could have been so simple but now they’re all gonna die
He’s a coffee shop psycho
The bistro butcherer
The caffeine cut throat
The mess hall murderer
But if you see him coming
Looking for a brew
Don’t mess with his oolong
Or he will mess with you
COFFEE SHOP PSYCHO

The Traveller
04:56

|
Take me away oh, any place but here
Want to be a traveller, I want to buccaneer
I’ll disappear over night, I’ll creep into the dark
Dance through until morning comes, where you will steal my heart
No strings to keep me here, nowhere to call my own
It’s now all crystal clear, time to tread the path unknown
I’ll disappear over night, I’ll creep into the dark
Dance through until morning comes, where you will steal my heart
I’m the traveller, not a passenger
I’m the traveller, not a passenger
I’m the traveller, not a passenger
I’m the traveller, not a passenger

Funky Pumpkins
03:10
|
|||
|
You all heard the tale of that Cinderella chick
Well I’ll tell you something that the stories missed
Our main lady wasn’t so meek and shy
She was pretty shady, and liked to drink and drive
That girl had one funky pumpkin
Liked to race in her funky pumpkin
Got chased in her funky pumpkin
And hightailed it into the night
Prince Charming left behind as she felt wind whippin' in her hair
Glass slipper never mind, not when she’s in the driving chair
No wicked Step Mother when Cinder’s behind the wheel
Just burning rubber and tired screaming at her heels

No Sugar
03:03
|
|||
|
When you hear exotic sounds, does it make you move around
Do you tap your feet, or start to dance
Did this happen suddenly, is it taking over me
Why not take this chance
Cause I, no I don’t need no sugar, no
Cause the music, is sweet enough

Mischief
03:04
|
|||
|
You can hold on, till the end of time
We dance in the fire, we never get tired, we don’t go slow
Our chariot awaits, and where it takes us no-body knows

|
Said are you ready
Are you ready to twist
Now put your hands up
If you want to enlist
This time it’s for real, not like the last
So come on, on your feet
Charging to the Balkan Blast
Now come on soldiers
Keep your heads up high
Just take a hold of
Your hearts and stand by
We’re ready to march now
We’ll go in fast
Already on our feet
Charging to the Balkan Blast
The Balkan Blast
Get…. Get…. Ready

Pants Party
03:37
|
|||
|
If you are very shy
Come and join us, come and join us, come and drop by
Or if you can’t wait on stand-by
Got it all here, seen it all here, come and drop by
It’s about time…
Fellas got their speedos on, looking just like Donkey Kong
Oh won’t you sing along, at the pants party
Ladies don your brassieres, G-strings, stockings, we don’t care
Any kind of underwear at the pants party
It’s not about who is who,
Or what you’re wearing, no one’s caring, shake your caboose
We’re all here to let lose,
So jump on board, you’ll never get bored, there’s no excuse

Goulash
04:19
|
|||
|
When the music is dropping and filling up your mind
There’s no time for stopping, it’s time to unwind
When the world starts to shake and shimmer in your eyes
No there’s no time to waste, it’s time to claim your prize
Come get hypnotised, come get hypnotised
Time to join the riff-raff, it’s time to join the rabble
Let the spell take over, with it’s razzle-dazzle
The mob is taking control, there’s no time for bed
There’s magic in the music, you can sleep when you’re dead
Let your feet gravitate, as you move across the floor
No this party can’t wait, it’s time to declare war
Oh, oh, let the beat take you higher, shakes you to your soul
Yes tonight will inspire to enter the unknown
Come get in the zone, come get in the zone

Seven Seas
05:04
|
|||
|
Once a wise man, said to me
Don’t you worry, one day you’ll be free
Then he took my hand and led me to the sea
Now I live my life, guided by the breeze
Some say mad
Some say easy
But I say floating
Never queasy
Keep the dance right
Come and tease me
And we’ll go all night
Until we’re free
Come all you sailors
And all you ravers
You trail blazers
Come and dance with me
We’ll jump on this ship
Before it leaves quick
You’ll learn some new tricks as we
Sail the seven seas, the seven seas

Lockdown
04:24
|
|||
|
Welcome to the guard house, please enjoy your stay
Because there ain’t no way out, so come and join the fray
This is our fortress, oh our very own retreat
Feel free to confess but you won’t escape the beat
We’re on lockdown
Don’t panic now, we’re in control
You’ll soon come around, to living in the dark
Cause when the lights do come on
That’s when, we party hard
Oh this, is our fortress, oh our very own retreat
Feel free to undress but you can’t escape the heat

Gaz, having finally got this in the CD player, what an absolute stunner of an album, a glorious document of the hardest year in history, emotions, tears, mass singalongs, “The Old Normal”, one of my absolute key songs of last year and, topping them all, “Rule”, Gaz does full tilt screaming metal and it’s f’ing glorious!
