Compass of Nigeria Young Man with the Sideburns, short cut jeans Sunburned skin burned by the sea Cheap sunglasses and long blond hair Anchor on a wiry arm Bootleggers, dealers, heartbreakers, and squealers Lagos harbor ‚74 Rising sun and, it’s a waiting time There’s a mission on tonight (Chorus) Diving deep down, in the African night Crossing flashlight beams Under the surface ,of the African sea Compass of Nigeria After the move in Fela Kuti’s bar Star lager, muffled light African vamps move in the flood light Sore temptation doesn’t touch Cheap cigarettes, slow talk Blood brothers for this night Moon rises over the nissen huts Smell of smoke, smell of older gods (Chorus) Diving deep down, in the African night Crossing flashlight beams Under the surface ,of the African sea Compass of Nigeria Salvage of the compass piece by piece By the divers in the night Wrap the tools in the oil soaked clothes By Lagos Island the ship does slide On the open water there’s a heavy sea Portable radio calms down the man They’re hold their peace about the campaign Back in Holland it’s Amen

Waterberg 04:44
Waterberg On a hot summer’s night You know my sheets are damp Just can’t find my sleep allright The older guys in the street You know like.. fooling around Living a modern teenage dream My sister’s just around You know. hanging out down town Feeling just like a grown up girl Like my father used to try The tears my mother cried Keeping it all together (Chorus) And all I ever wanted to be like… A grown up man inside and… Waiting for the time to come and be… Like a On a distant motorway A biker find it’s way Towards the far horizon Through the heat there is the night The sounds of summer outside Just like an endless childhood play Like an instant memory Between dream and day I could just find my friends and play Like my father used to cry The times my mother tried Keeping it all together (Chorus) Like the river flows down to the sea A grown up man to be and… Waiting for my time to come and rise.. Like a sun On a distant motorway A biker find it’s way Towards the far horizon Like my father used to try The tears my mother cried Keeping it all together Like the river flows down to the sea A grown up man to be and… Waiting for my time to come and rise.. Like a sun

Looking for my brother If you ask me where I'm going on this long dirty road. Lifes I lost, weapons were built, this story can't be told. He came out of nowhere sometimes he's like a Kobold. Emigrated suddenly now I miss his hold. Tell you: I am looking for my brother that's my skill in law. He's my buddy like no other You never saw. I am looking for my brother that's my skill in law. He's my buddy like no other You never saw. Wet busstop is killing me while I'm riding in. Black bars wait for me but I never walk in. Lord is with me beeing carried on a big big wing. Finding my brother and we are back in the ring. Tell you: I am looking for my brother that's my skill in law. He's my buddy like no other You never saw. I am looking for my brother that's my skill in law. He's my buddy like no other You never saw.

Ginger 02:30
Ginger My Name is Baker I’m guarding the maker I’m Peter I’m Edward from Lewisham London With trumpet and drumming my weightiness is clear Aplomb is essential for surviving, out on the streets When you’re out of control Range Rover riding nowhere that I’m hiding Canned beer and sundown, sunglasses and sunburn Camel cigarette in the corner of mouth Desert wind blowing my red hair with sand colides When you’re out of control I am a nightmare a well known fighter Charlie Watts is a shaker, Louis Bellson maker Double bass, double drums, double drugs I will take Having more horses than woman, my friends call it fate, When you’re out of control

Don’t Fear a Distant Sun When you know you have to hide Travelling through space and time Fire your Laser Guns at once Feel the pressure of the... Black Hole pulling on your strings A voice will ring Don’t fear a distant Sun... Through the Supernova clouds On the Radio the... Sounds of the Big Bang is pouring through With the Fear of losing you Pressure on your Wings A voice will sing Don’t fear a distant Sun... Accelerating Universe Through the wormhole it comes worse A distant Noise from far beyond Radiation from the Sun Zero Gravity A voice will sing Don’t fear a distant Sun...

Rivals 05:03
Rivals Like a Sun that seems to set in the morning. Seems the dog just raised her head and started moaning. Change the colours of my mood so often. With a teardrop try to clean my dirty shoes allright. All I wanted to avoid is that you could ever be lonely. Being always on the wrong side of the street it's so cold here. Like a horse we run allright.... Like a fire creeping through the night.. Like a secret kept inside... Never know the reason why... We don't know the reason why we're here. Creating heroes to exploit our deepest fears. Reading funny books to change our ways. Our daily bread our holy water through our Vains. All I wanted to be back into your arms but they're closed now. All you wanted me to change myself in something you wanted. Like a horse we run allright.... Like a fire creeping through the night.. Like a secret kept inside... Never know the reason why... We don't know the reason why we're here. Creating heroes to exploit our deepest fears. Reading funny books to change our ways. Our daily bread our holy water through our vains All I wanted to be back into your arms but they're closed now. All you wanted me to change myself in something you wanted. Like a horse we run allright.... Like a fire creeping through the night.. Like a secret kept inside... Never know the reason why...

This Field of Mines When we realize, it’s time take… Back what was lost… Never could decide what’s good or bad And now we’re stuck Seems that all the Dreams we had are vanished in the Hay… Swept it away… Feels like I got stones inside my Head, But it’s O.K. Our love is undressed And I could care less Feeding on the Past I guess it’s all true… but remember, We used to break down… All the Walls that lay in front of our Way We’d walk our own Road… But now it seems that have lost our way…Lost our way… Looks like all the Flowers in the Vase Will lose their leaves… Now that we’re faking up… Almost breaking up… It hurts so bad, it feels just like the Rain… And all the time the silent treatment cuts me like a Knife… Slowly just pushed inside… All the Pain of being kept away.… Just isn’t right… It’s cold in these Bones of mine I know you’re the same… Walking through this field of mines… but remember We used to tear down… All the Walls that tried to keep us inside We’d find our own way… But now we’re lost inside our small little world…small little world.
