Carnival
Here we are at the carnival
We’re closer than ever
Introducing new party songs
Getting pixelised forever
Here we are at the carnival
Skipping of the danger
Some of you who got away
Will surely miss the adventure
Don’t need a person to replace
Don’t need words to describe
Don’t need the whole universe to bribe
Even though there’s nothing new
There’s still old magic worth a try
What no money can buy
Here we go at the carnival
Sounds like we’re too clever
Introducing new party songs
Getting pixelised forever
Pick your own carnival
Don’t place a bet on the stranger
Revoking corners do not get old
It’s unpredictably painted…mind you
Don’t let the fire burn your lips
Don’t get cheated by the ego trips
They’re only dragging you away
Even though there’s nothing new
There’s still old magic worth a try
What no money can buy
Meet me at the carnival
We’re closer than ever
Play one of your party songs
And let’s get pixelised forever

There Are Moments

There are moments
There are moments in life
When you think..am I a mad or what?
There are moments in life
When you can’t put up with it, but you don’t wanna stop
There are moments in life
When one is one and two is two for sure
There are moments in life
When you say: ‘stop, I don’t need it anymore!’
And even when you know it’s all over
and you still pick up the phone
and nothing seems to be alright
there are moments to dance a waltz alone
Zhel, Brixton, 2000
