Titre 9:  "My bond with you and your Planet: DISCO! "
(Stef Kamil Carlens)

I have a bond with fear
And with my space struck gear
I'm the caped crusader!

I've a bond with love and wisdom
I've a bond with poverty
I've a bond with the way we're cruising
Down the path of liberty

Hey now baby
You want my advice
You get on up, down, turn around, hit the
ground and come about twice!

I've a bond like a Spanish fury
I've a bond way down in Mexico
I had a bond when everybody knew that
I pulled the plugs and pulled them domino
I said come on baby
You want my advice
You better change your hairdo
Cause that bond's my vice

Here we go: Pure Sonic Disco

Last week I came to town to
Get my ass to boogie around
I saw this girl, she looked so fine
I asked: "You want a bond with me toning?"
Come on momma
You better think about it twice
Cause this her boy
This here boy's got the rolling dice

I've a bond with the weight of my mother
I've a bond with the highlight moon
I'va a bond with everybody knows that
I'm coming down to see you perocoo
Oh now baby
That's what I always say
When I go skating on thin ice
You're so marvellous!
Brand new!
Sexy!

I've a bond with the way we're chilling
I've a bond with my bottle of beer
I've a bond with all that's around me
But I don't know about this bond right here

Oh baby, let's not get too philosophical
And stay true men and human

Super trooper boogaloo
Stickin' to my body with a wizard glue
Extra mixture richochet
Is gonna get my soul through the discoday
Donkey funky slapping horn
Has made her slip on out of the clothes she worn
Inky pinky superwine
Me & my fat guitar will have a real good time

I'm gonna roller-coaster down
To her down below
I'm gonna have to dive on down
To her down below

I'm gonna have to move this party
To her down below
And see the show
At her down below

Titre 10:  "Stamina "
(Tomas de Smet - Bjorn Eriksson - Stef Kamil Carlens) 

I argued with a wounded man
He saying so
And me saying: "Oh man,
Why can't the beer in my glass
Stop to fizz
The insane hiss"
He said:
"Drink up boy,
It takes a whole lot a lot
when you're up to your neck in this"
Now there are demons all around me
Saying I should get a taste of
what freedom really is
And that I shouldn't resist
The wealth
Of this oblivion

I used to play with toyguns and toyknives
But my daddy
He never thought me how to kill
He told me how to take the blame
But my daddy
He didn't teach me how to kill
I was told to be discreet
And to be able to take an insult
But I was so discreet
nobody noticed me momma

I was told to fear
And fear alone
Would help me what to choose
I dreamed myself to solitude
And I left behind my family and my kin

I pack my bags
And I go slide back to my mother
To hide in her shack
From this a
Fighting and fussin'

I was raised on meat and alcohol
It don't do any good at all
I went clips
Eclipse
But I ain't did no
I ain't had no
I ain't coming back

It's amazing how only a little faith
Can point someone in one peculiar direction
But how much it takes for people to admit
They were wrong
And to renegotiate their intentions
Or how quickly they irritate
If you only mention
That only 2-3-5 changes
To their daily ways
Could make a whole lotta difference
In the chain of days
In time and space

I hope I won't get busted
Cause I done no wrong
But of course
You never know
What change might come
In morality
Or economy
Ecology
Sexuality
Or any other matter
On the one hand
Or on the other hand
In my land
Or your land
Makes me understand
That nobody really knows
Which way things go
And that even the river must flow
Upstream sometimes

Consumption beep-beep watusi!

Titre 11:  "50 Years in Dope Jittery "
(Stef Kamil Carlens)

There's a room where 50 years I kept it down
Now I hear out for someone to share my sounds
I hide in my perception like a god
This lack of information has to stop

The clock strikes error
Time's on hold

Take me disappearing on a shot
Have me leave my romm and keep intact
The strongest and the loudest need relief
Replace him by the ones that live in grief

Get some to me
I never had any
Can't wait no longer
My 50 years keep rolling like a train

This train has gone insane

I need some water
I'll have it now

Take me disappearing on a shot
Have me leave my romm and keep intact

I need those people
Can't live alone
My heart's all empty
My 50 years are sinking like a stone

Titre 12:  "The French Trombone"
(Bjorn Eriksson - Stef Kamil Carlens)

Everybody said it was dirty
But their truth is like a gun
I still try to get my...
Even when I'm forced to none
Dancing on their prudence shield
Stroking while I'm young
Relying on their nursery
Making it mine

Hey everybody was laughing
But I couldn' resist crying
Hey I felt sad because
They all were lying
They all crown their frowns
They all swop their alibis
I'm glad I know that I don't care

My mind is in my hands now
It's the odd cause

I remember when I was in the desert
Sucking on my French cologne
Grinding on my pillowcase
Enjoying all alone
And the air was soft and new
And the chances that I took
I wonder sometimes if without it
We still have anything to go for

The monkey's in
The monkey's sin
The monkey with the golden skin
He got news from the diamonds
The monkey's wall
The monkey's call
The monkey with the golden skull
He got news from the diamonds
Somebody told me so
I can't dance to the diamonds
I think I'll better go
My moon don't mind
It's light just grinds
The facws of the neverminds
Their got their eyes on the diamonds
The monkey's will's
The's monkey's thrill
The monkey with the golden skills
He got news from the diamonds
The monkey's - a rocket don't fly
The monkey's - a tears don't cry
He got news from the diamonds

He got news from my hometown
He says the sun don't shine
He came down with the rainfall
And left the moon behind
And that ain't right
The monkey's pride ain't right

3/ "Jintro & the great luna "
(Words By Stef Kamil Carlens) 

Jintro Sarto's got them blues again
Right in the corner of his eye
Eases his metal minding heart on cherry beer
Tellin' crap sidewalk stories
Tryin' to get back in the middle of the road
I says we're halfway there
Man, I don't care
I don't give a shit
And I never will
Jintro and the great luna
And a broken man and a wronged wife
A twisted soul
And one more call for alcohol
Mingo mango
This is the day of doom
Spit your fire
I'll go down soon
But ain't you gonna tell me what you
Want me to do about wantin' you
Oh, baby
What ya want me to do
Jintr Sarto got them blues again
Oh, baby, every morning in my head the
Skies are sad and the sun comes up
And blinds my eyes from behind
Jintro's mad, Jintro's sad
Jintro's got a broken head
Jintro's wants a cigarette
Takes his broken min to bed
Now I'm going, now I'm dead
Oh, baby, I wish we never met

4/ "Moodog"
(Words By Stef Kamil Carlens)    

I call me Moondog
Cause when the lights are low
I let the moonlight
Shine down upon my soul
And all that's gone wrong
Is told to wait 'till dawn
Don't need no burden
I gotta lay down
Low - ease my worried mind, man
Can't worry all the time, man
Put off my crazy goals
And let the moonlight flow
I met a woman
One with a higher score
She said: "now, Moondog
I gotta get some more
Cause just your moonlight
Ain't what I'm looking for"
I says now woman
You gotta lay down
Low - ease your worried mind, girl
Put off my crazy goals
And let the moonlight flow

6/ "Catchita"
(Words By Stef Kamil Carlens) 

Pictures of taboos
The roar of the pacita
Piano collects the siren
Of the hazard falsetto
Et l'odeur de la pacita
Whisper, whisper
And I don't understand
Losing you
Losing you
Please don't go
Howl to the best of la luna pacita
Moonshine
Moondog
Moonshine, moon fucks
Moon fucks; la luna pacita
We're gathered here with you, Cachita
La luna pacita
La muerte
I'll die, I'll die tonight
I'll die, the Moondog die tonight
But no, Cachita
It can't fool us
La muerte's in staggering vain
Bold and ugly
We'll just grind
Till the sunlight leaks
Out of the broken window
And fall for the roar
And flow to the roar
Of the pacita
And flow on
Flow on
And jangle
And dress
Like princes do when they dance
Dance
Dance to la muerte
In staggering vain
Bold and ugly
Dance
Like princes do when they
Die

Shake-a to the middlewave
Shake-a to the middlewave
And clinch the red lynch
To superfall in real
And real as in
Adaption
Collaption
In in in
In time
Twice
Triple
Don't stop 'till it's over
The single man
He's a con
Whisper, whisper, Cachita
Don't mean a thing
Heat Cachita
Heat give wings
Whisper, whisper
And I don't understand
I'm-a losing you

7/ "Waiting 'Til You're Gone"
(Words  by Mark Meyers)   

I can spend my time with those who wait
I can spend my time killin' time
We don't talk when you're around
I can spend my life in this crime
I'm like a statue made of ice
And she is lookin' just as good
And she is lookin' just as cruel
And it's not because of her lies
It's just in the way she does
All the things that she must do

And I'll be waiting 'til you're gone

You wanna know just what I did
I'll talk about your eyes
And I will watch you as you smile
And I'll try to keep you smilin'

I'm like a statue made of ice
And she is lookin' just as good
And she is lookin' just as cruel
And it's not because of her lies
It's just in the way she does
All the things that she must do
And she don't know what I do
But she holds it in her hand
And she throws it back at me
And it's not because of her lies
It's just in the way she does
All the things that she must do

And I'll be waiting 'til you're gone
