D-A-D LYRICS

1. Sleeping My Day Away

Mumbling goodmorning and raising my head
A breath kiss to my pillow pet
I take a look at the turns and stay in bed
Open my eyes when the have died
I turned the world and I slept allright
Now my mare is over I zip my jeans tight
Oh lord won't you bless this night...

From the pale lips of a youth who lay
I'm sleeping my away
And when the night comes to the city I say:
I'm sleeping my away
Yeah! With my pale lips in the pillow I say:
I'm sleeping my away
After dark is the game I play
I'm sleeping my away I'm sleeping my away

When my dreams begin I'd be proud to be letting you in
With a smile on my face I guide our dreamboat in
So if you wanna travel along with me
You better sleep tight the rest of the
You see I could be a sleeper it's not rest I lack
'Coz I hit the sack when the suns coming back

From the pale lips of a youth who lay
I'm sleeping my away
And when the night comes to the city I say:
I'm sleeping my away
Yeah! With my pale lips in the pillow I say:
I'm sleeping my away
That after dark – is the game I play
I'm sleeping my , I'm sleeping my , I'm sleeping my
I'm sleeping my away
I'm sleeping my away
Yeah! Now I've turned the world around yeah! I did it again
I'm sleeping my away
And now I have to wear my shades down sleepers lane
I'm sleeping my away
Yeah! All the good have gone to bed again
I'm sleeping my away
'Coz the devil's at work inside my brain
I'm sleeping my away I'm sleeping my away
I'm sleeping my away I'm sleeping my away away...

2. Jihad

From the steamin Mekong delta
To the shores of Tonkin bay
Bombs of yellied gasoline
Is making night as bright as day
And the mogul's hard tank masters
Adore their new grenades
And the D.A.D. find their 9" shells
Are great for border raids

Yeah! I'm superfurious
I've done it again
I reach 50 when I count to 10
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left
For the pilgrims
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left
For the pilgrims

And you can shake your fist at the T.V. set
And you can slam your hand in the table
And you can cry and curse
Through tightlocked teeth
Just as hard as you are able
But you can't run away from trouble
'Coz there ain't no place that far
No fuel left for the pilgrims
Yeah! That's just the way we are

'Coz I'm superfurious I've done it again
I reach 50 when I count to 10
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left for the pilgrims
Jihad, I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left for the pilgrims

This is tower again, do you read me? You can get the girls and the videomachine but the fuel you asked for... You cannot have!

What?! Blow me to heaven!!
Jihad I'm getting so mad I'm getting so mad
..Who's mad I'm mad, so mad
Jihad I'm getting mad
And there's no fuel left for the pilgrims.

3. Point Of View

Yeah, you like a man when his mind is strong
When his ego's so high he couldn't be wrong
And you like a man when he's right at the top
When his ego is growing and it don't seem to stop

See I'd like to share your point of view
As long as it's my view too
Can't win on a compromise I'd rather lose on my own
'Coz I l kind of good when I'm all alone

And you play the games by the book and the rules
See I play'em backwards – let's see who lose
Yeah, you don't go for the man, you go for his balls
So let's see who stands and see who falls...

Yeah, I'd like to share your point of view
As long as it's my view too
Can't win on a compromise I'd rather lose on my own
'Coz I l kind of good when I'm all alone
And if I take a stand it will be my own
And take it yeah! Yeah!!

Shhhhhh... Take a look in these eyes
Do they look sincere?. Do you read my lips
Do I make it clear? Bye bye so long,
I don't want you here...

Yeah, I tried to share your points of view
If not all then maybe just a few
I couldn't win on a compromise
I'd rather lose on my own
'Coz I l kind of good when I'm all alone
And if I take a stand it'll be my own
Get out of my heart.
And my mind..
And my home...

4. Rim Of Hell

I'll start your day with a shock
See one of these days 'bout 12 o'clock
The world will turn into a little rock
And it's going to fall down with the sound of a knock
See I'm one of these guys who's nice to know
'cause I know a place to go
It's just down the generation gap
I'll take you there in a red hot cab
And if you want I mean you really really want
I'll show you my hometown and it's down
Yeah, you can tell by the smell
So close you can hear them yell

They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Oh Lord, let me live to tell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell

And meet your host lift your glass of a toast
Don't be afraid of the colours he wear
Look around: all your friends are here
Now don't say you've had enough, stay a while, stay tough!
Grab his horns like you just don't care
We'll eat his fire and drink what's there, yeah!
'cause if you want (I'll take you down down)
I mean you really really want (I'll show you my hometown)
Let's stay until the end, the very end!
And to be saved by the bell
So close we almost feel

They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Yeah, you can tell by the smell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
To the edge and back and to the edge again
Too hot for the D.J. and too hot for his friends

C'mon party!

They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Yeah! They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Oh Lord, let me live to tell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell
Please, I can't stand the smell
They throw the best damn parties at the rim of Hell

7. Girl Nation

I had a ticket to fly so I boarded a plane
When a combat dressed stewardesse shouted my name

It's minimum mercy coz they found my file

Yeah! I've a found place where girls eat men
Now I'm back in girl nation again
Girl nation Female civilization
Girl nation Female civilization

It's a female tale it's hard to use words
But I'm landed and stranded among oysters and birds
Bush and dangerous curves boys get what they deserves
Wild sisters dancing all night Round that totem
With a knife to my throat Round that totem
Yeah! They're chanting the oath
Singing 'bout mama all through the night round that totem of the red light
In girl nation Female civilization
Girl nation Female civilization
In girl nation by interstellar navigation
And sweet female persuasion
Globetrotting to ladyland Back where time began

One wild second then I was down
One full circle they stood all around
Counting my bones waiting to be dead
When a soft loving hand lifted my head
Tender lips kissing my chin, whispering:
- Honey, where have you been?
In girl nation Totem of the red light
Female civilization
In girl nation Totem of the red light
It's a female civilization Girl nation
Totem of the red light
By interstellar navigation and sweet female persuasion
Globetrotting through ladyland – back where time began
In girl nation ...

8. Lords Of The Atlas

In my travelling heart, there's an urge to see
Foreign lands and alien birds, new stories that noone heard
To stick a pin in the globe and to believe and hope
There's a whole new world to unravel
As far as a boyscout can travel..
Company of adventurers On the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness Around the world and back
Cardcarrying members Lords of the atlas

To see God standing on a local hill
And to know there's forests unthrod still
Don't look back when you climb the stairs
I'm travelling on mental fares
Going through the eternal cloudland
To the ends of the world..
And after 2000 steps of climbing...
- I know it was the whole trip worth!
Company of adventurers On the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness Around the world and back
Cardcarrying members Lords of the atlas
- We're the lords Yeah, we're the lords of the atlas

Sitting crosslegged on a persian rug
Addicted to a 1000 drugs
Our flags nailed onto a mast
Captain says: Forward .!

Company of adventurers On the secret track
Caesars of the wilderness Around the world and back
Cardcarrying members Lords of the atlas

9. Overmuch

Yeah! I heard a phone ring from deep down within
A friendly voice whistling under my skin
Yeay! I have to stop my enterprise below
But I'm not so sure the guy will let me go...

And I walk out that door that's what the door is for
In the night I'm way out of sight
But in the I keep getting in the way Yeah!!

12. Ill Will

What we need isn't systems
Or some regulating plans
But bigger guns to shoot with
And a bigger type of man
Ill Will
For good or ill my iron will
Is unrivalled still Evil ill thrill
This is the curse to me and my friends
Ill will No patterns No sense

I hate mental exercise
Thinking gives me pain
I know don't turn out
That way
But here we go again:
Ill Will
For good or ill my iron will
Is unrivalled still Evil ill thrill
This is the curse to me and my friends
Ill will No patterns No sense

Rock'n'Roll!
Yeah! Ill will!!!
