The Cardigans Lyrics, Photos, Pictures, Paroles, Letras, Text for every songs

B i o g r a p h y (by John Bush) One of the most pleasing pop groups of the '90s, the Cardigans' sugary confections would grow annoying very quickly if they weren't backed by great musicianship and clever arrangements. The band's 1995 breakout album Life reflected the Cardigans at their most saccharine � the sunny disposition of vocalist Nina Persson being the major argument in favor � and critics inserted the group into the space age pop revivalist camp. The Cardigans later proved that they were more difficult to pigeonhole, however. Even the band's origins show that their later appearance was quite misleading; two heavy metal fanatics formed the group in October 1992 in Jonkoping, Sweden. Guitarist Peter Svensson met bassist Magnus Sveningsson in a hardcore group, though he had previously trained in music theory and jazz arranging. The two later grew tired of metal and decided to form a pop band with Nina Persson � an art-school friend who had never sung professionally � plus keyboard player Lars-Olof Johansson and drummer Bengt Lagerberg. All five Cardigans moved into a small apartment in 1993 and began recording a demo tape, which entered the possession of producer Tore Johansson later that year. He liked what he heard and invited the group to record at his Malmö studio. Signed to the dance-oriented Stockholm label, the Cardigans released Emmerdale in May 1994. The single "Rise & Shine" became a hit on Swedish radio soon after the release of the LP, and a readers poll in Sweden's Slitz magazine voted Emmerdale the best album of 1994. The Cardigans spent the last half of 1994 touring Europe and recording their second album. A satirical response to their moody debut, Life showed the band at their most upbeat, including an angelic picture of Persson in an ice-skating outfit for the cover. Released in March 1995 � with several re-recordings of songs from Emmerdale � the album eventually sold one and a half million copies worldwide and became especially popular in Japan, where it achieved platinum status. A deal with Minty Fresh gave the Cardigans an American release of Life in spring 1996, and the group played eight sold-out shows in the U.S. that summer. The American major labels began to notice the attention, and Mercury signed them soon after. First Band on the Moon, released in September 1996, de-emphasized the pure pop in favor of abstract arrangements and some rather violent themes. Nevertheless, the infectious single "Lovefool" became a radio hit by early 1997, and First Band on the Moon eventually reached gold status in America, as well as platinum certification in Japan (just three weeks after its release). Gran Turismo followed in 1998, though it lacked an obvious hit and led to a long hiatus for the band. Finally, the Cardigans returned in 2003 with Long Gone Before Daylight, marking a clear

transition with confessional material closer to the singer/songwriter tradition.

EmmerdaleSick & tiredSick, tired and homelessWith no one here to sing forTired of being weightlessFor all these looking good boys

You can always say my attic has its charmYou can always say you did no major harmYou can always that summer had its charmAnd that you did no major harmOh, spare me if you please

Sick, tired an sleeplessWith no one else to shine forSick of all my distressBut I won't show I'm still poor

Symptoms are so deepSomething here's so wrongNothing is complete

Nowhere to belongSymptoms are so deepI think I'd better stayHere on my ownSo spare me if you please

Black letter day

I did all that I should, well all that I couldBut will I be cleanI did all that I should, well all that I couldBut it isn't me

All my strength is dead and gone

Slept as long I could, as long as I shouldTo find comfort hereSlept as long I could, as long as I shouldBut I still have fear

All my strength is dead and gone...

Black letter dayAll the fun has gone awayBlack letter dayAll the joy has gone awayBlack letter dayAll my strength has gone awayBlack letter day

I drank all that I could, much more than I shouldIn simple despairI drank all that I could, much more than I shouldTo find someone thereAll my strength is dead and gone...

Black letter dayAll the fun has gone awayBlack letter dayAll the joy has gone awayBlack letter dayAll my strength has gone awayBlack letter dayOnce upon a time there was a scientist with the nose made of silverHe found that there were far too hurtless days a year that one could do withoutHe called them black letter days and the rest is silenceWell, all my strength is dead and gone...

Black letter dayAll the fun has gone awayBlack letter dayAll the joy has gone awayBlack letter dayAll my strength has gone awayBlack letter day

I hope monday will be a better day

In the afternoon Winter came by my bedroom today

Falling in rows and covering the laneMorning shone on my windows todayPassing the time I slumber awayTo kill all the day

Stumbling up at oneAnd put the kettle onBut wheres the coffee goneIn the afternoonI put the TV onBut where's the drama goneIn the afternoonAnd time is all that passes

Someone came by my bedroom todaySwaying around, then silently awaySomeone left home and my bedroom todayLeft by the time I slumbered awayTo kill all the day

Some people don't hurryDon't you worry they sayOne day I'll be olderSo much colder I sayThis fear won't appearIf I keep stumbling up at one

Over the water

Turn away the collarBecause the blowing is dryWalk away to the harbourBefore your ships will fly

Slip away and the pillowBecause it's falling off downTrot away and aroundBecause your ships are found

Somewhere over the waterNext to a harbourSomeone's eager to listen

Turn away the collarBecause the blowing is dryWalk away to the harbourBefore your ships will flySlip away and the pillowBecause it's falling off downTrot away and aroundBecause your ships are found

Somewhere over the waterNext to a harbourSomeone to be in...

After all ...

After all you were perfectly rightBut I'm scaring close to insanity

And on a night like thisNothing stays the sameNothing looks the same

After all you were perfectly rightThough our relation just split me in twoAnd on a night like thisPieces fall apartVisions fall apart

After all you were perfectly rightI have never been happy beforeAnd on a night like thisYou can hear the wordsSee behind the words

After all you were perfectly wrongThough I thought I'd found loveAnd on a night like thisNothing could be worseNothing could be worse

Cloudy sky

I'd catch some stars for youAnd just for youI'd paint the grey sky blueAnd just for youI'd catch some stars for youAnd just for youI'd paint the grey sky blueAnd just for you

So don't tell me you want the rain

From a cloudy skyTo wash away the painThat I've given you againI've always tried to findWhat satisfies your mindBut I will never knowWhere you are to goBut I want you to knowDo you want a golden ringI would buy you anything

I'd read some poems for youJust for youI hope they won't make you blueLike they used to do

So please tell me they're like the rain

From this cloudy skyTo wash away the painThat I've given you againI've always tried to findWhat satisfies your mindDon't tell me you want the rainDon't tell me you want the rain

From this cloudy skyTo wash away the painThat I've given you againI've always tried to findWhat satisfies your mindBut I will never knowWhere you are to goBut I want you to knowDo you want a golden ringI would buy you anything

Our space

My dear, please see my dearHow we invented the fearInside that spaceNo one could interfereMy dear, please see my dearHow we invented the tearsInside that spaceNo one could interfere

Rise & shine

Rise and shineRise and shine

I want to be alone for a whileI want earth to breathe to meI want the waves to grow loudI want the sun to bleed downTo bleed down

See the waves go downSee the moon aloneI raise my head and whisper

Rise and shineRise and shine my sisterRise and shineRise and shine my sisterRise and shineRise and shine my sisterRise and shineRise and shine

I want to see the wounded moonI want the sea to break throughI want it all to be gone tomorrowSo I've come to say goodbyeSay goodbye

See the waves go downSee the moon aloneI raise my head and whisperRise and shineRise and shine my sisterRise and shineRise and shine my sister...*** Thanx a lot to Lovely girl (!) who corrected a mistake ***

Celia inside

You don't want the sun to shine inSo you turn the curtains downYour eyes still don't show me a thingAnd you don't feel it's sunny outside

You don't want no joy for a whileBut you stay up late at nightIt hurts you that she's still aliveSo you'll raise flowerbeds inside

But she, she won't get bothered at allShe's just watching the water at fallSo you should give them just what they needWater and poetry'Cause she will not bother at allShe's just watching the water at fallYou should give them just what they need'Cause she will not bother at allBut you won't say you're not adoredBy her beauty, celia inside

You don't want to feel her at allBut who's that fellowman of hersWith who, your dear celia movedAnd they'll sleep happily inside

But you won't say you're not adoredBy her beauty and her purityAnd her lovely, celia inside

Sabbath bloody sabbath

You've seen life through distorted eyesYou know you had to learnThe execution of your mindYou really had to turn

The race is run the book is readThe end begins to showThe truth is out, the lies are oldBut you don't want to know

Nobody will ever let you knowWhen you ask the reasons whyThey just tell you that you're on your ownFill your head all full of lies

The people who have crippled youYou want to see them burnThe gates of life have closed on youAnd now there's just no return

Nobody will ever let you knowWhen you ask the reasons whyThey just tell you that you're on your ownFill your head all full of lies

Seems hard Seems hard to understandI think no one canNot anyone I knowNo, wait I think I knowOne who doesAt least that's what he says

And what I mean is what I sayBut I've got thoughts left anyway

Seems hard to understandI'm not sure myselfSure of what to thinkI know I should trust myselfAt least that's what he says

Seems hard to understandI think no one didNot anyone I knewWell, I thought I knewOne who didIt was only as he said...

Last song

The night she died in the rented roomAs the whole town was sleepingShe held her breath like a star in bloomCould burn down tomorrow

The summer breeze was caressing meAs I walked through the marketThe golden light of a friend besideHad died out for good

No, nothing can amaze me'Cause everything's behind meNo, nothing else can please meSince all I had has been set free

The night before in the dining roomI recall it nowShe said "I fear for you my love'Cause I'll soon be leaving"

The autumn comes just like other yearsBut I won't see the signsThe sun above's sowing magic seedsBut it wants someone back

Life

Carnival

I will never know'Cause you will never show

I hear sounds of loversBarrel organs, mothersI would like to take youDown thereJust to make you mineIn a merry-go-round

Tomorrow, she won't feel half of thisTomorrow morning is a sugar kissTomorrow, heavenly no sorrowShe will lose gravity

Beautiful one

Rise in the morning Shine til the dawning

Smooth dreams in leaves Raised in a teacup Sticked down to sleep Like an envelope Filled up with words for you

Wrapped up in curls Sweet as the summer Cheek soft as a fur Graze in a slumber Beautiful wonderboy

Soft beams from an early sun On my truly beautiful one Shimmer from a Saturday sun On my truly beautiful one

Rise in the morning Shine til the dawning

Bright up from sleepLost in the blankets

Chased in like saltRoses & candybarsCoffee & old cigars

Stretched out to breathe Down from the rooftops Sticked down to sleep Like an envelope Filled up with words for you

Soft beams from an early sun On my truly beautiful one Shimmer from a Saturday sun On my truly beautiful one

Rise in the morning Beautiful wonderboy*** Thanx a lot to Chippy for this one ***Travelling with Charley

Once he gets a mystic callJump into his motorcarOnce we're rolling down the roadHe's forgotten where to go

Travelling with CharleyMy detective darling

My agent hasn't solved a caseMy agent never finds a traceBut Charley has always styleCharley is always nice

Poor CharleyHe would be nothing without me

Once I clear his memoryBut he'll crash into a treeOnce we're getting to the placeSomeone else has solved the case

Travelling with CharleyMy detective darling

My agent hasn't solved a caseMy agent never finds a traceBut Charley has always styleCharley is always nice

Poor CharleyHe would be nothing without meBut I do love him

Now the time is hereFor Iron Man to spread fearVengeance from the graveKills the people he once saved

Nobody wants himHe just stares at the worldPlanning his vengeanceThat he will soon unfold

No, nobody wants himThey just turn their headsAnd nobody helps himNow he has his revenge

Heavy boots of leadFills his victims full of dreadRunning as fast as they canIron Man lives again!*** Thanx a lot to Lovelygirl who corrected a mistake ***

Great divide

There's a monster growing in our headsRaised up on the wicked things we've saidA great divide between us nowSomething we should know

There's something to rememberAnd something to forgetAs long as we rememberThere's something to regretSomething we should know

There's a mountain higher than we knewIt's high but such a bitter viewA great divide between us nowSomething we should know

A great divide between us nowOn different sides of a great divide

Choke

A common lineI close my eyesBut couldn't let it goThe perfect timeI dropped my guardAnd lost but won somehow

It's rather sadIt feels like we've neverMade it together since

One word aheadAnd you'd be deadI held you in my throatI stumble byAttached to youI couldn't let it go

It's rather sadIt's really sadIt feels like we've neverMade it together since

We'll never have the guts to discoverWe'll choke on it and die...

I wonder what it's likeSeeing through your eyesYou've offered me to have a tryBut I was always lateThe filters that I useGive me an an excuseI take away what's realI feel it and it blows my fuse

I hang aroundFor another roundI'm hanging aroundFor another roundI'm hanging onTo the same old songI hang aroundFor another roundUntil something stops me

I wonder what it's likeWalking by your sideTo think before I talkAnd to move at the same speed as you walkI want to have a weightTo keep me in your stateI'm watching from aboveI love it but it's not for me

I hang aroundFor another roundI'm hanging aroundFor another roundI'm hanging onTo the same old songI hang aroundFor another roundUntil something stops me

I'm glad you came around todayI sure need a good companionI'm losing it but you're the sameWithout you I move at randomAbusing you 'cause you're a friendAnd there's no Jesus here to explain

And take me higherCome take me higherCome take me high above our timeTake me higherOh take me higherCome take me high above our timeWe'll make it out of here...

Oh yeah

You justify, you're not afraidAnd I won't feel like this foreverYou wait with me, because you knowThere's so much more than this before we go

Marvel Hill

Strange to be on Marvel HillI've walked some years to findI know there is a piece to fillThe gap I have in mindNo, nothing's here, I close my eyesIt's on the other sideAnd what I've worked so hard to gainI'd gladly give away

'Cause I don't need thisI don't need itI need more

A postcard from where life's a thrillOn top of Marvel Hill

But I don't need thisI don't need itI need moreNo, I don't need thisToo good to be trueToo good to ignoreI don't need thisI need so much moreIt's too much to ask for

My Favourite Game

I don't know what you're looking forYou haven't found it baby, that's for sureYou rip me up and spread me all around

In the dust of the deed of timeAnd this is not a case of lust, you seeIt's not a matter of you versus meIt's fine the way you want me on your ownBut in the end it's always me alone

And I'm losing my favourite gameYou're losing your mind againI'm losing my babyLosing my favourite game

I only know what I've been working forAnother you so I could love you moreI really thought that I could take you thereBut my experiment is not getting us anywhereI had a vision I could turn you rightA stupid mission and a lethal fightI should have seen it when my hope was newMy heart is black and my body is blue

And I'm losing my favourite gameYou're losing your mind againI'm losing my favourite gameYou're losing your mind againI'm losing my babyLosing my favourite game

I'm losing my favourite gameYou're losing your mind againI've triedI've triedBut you're still the sameI'm losing my babyYou're losing a saviour and a saint

Junk Of The Hearts

We never chose to part

In this stupid playI never felt by heartThat I could behaveThe way the roles were made

I know that I've done you wrongBut you're hard to pleaseWhen your faith is goneAnd when you can't believeI'm on my hands and knees

( Ozzy Osbourne )

Mr. Crowley, what went on in your headMr. Crowley, did you talk with the deadYour life style to me seemed so tragicWith the thrill of it allYou fooled all the people with magicYou waited on Satan's callMr. Charming, did you think you were pureMr. Alarming, in nocturnal rapportUncovering things that were sacred manifest on this EarthConceived in the eye of a secretAnd they scattered the afterbirth

Mr. Crowley, won't you ride my white horseMr. Crowley, it's symbolic of courseApproaching a time that is classicI hear maidens callApproaching a time that is drasticStanding with their backs to the wallWas it polemically sentl wanna know what you meantI wanna knowI wanna know what you meant

The boys are back in town

( Philip Lynott of Thin Lizzy )

Guess who just got back today?Those wild-eyed boys that had been awayHaven't changed, haven't much to sayBut man, I still think those cats are great

They were asking if you were aroundHow you was, where you could be foundI told them you were living downtownDriving all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town

You know the chick that used to dance a lotEvery night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd gotMan when I tell you she was cool, she was red hotI mean she was steaming

That night over at Johnny's placeWell this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's faceMan we just fell about the place

If that chick don't want to know, forget her

Friday night they'll be dressed to killDown at Dino's bar and grillThe drink will flow and blood will spillIf the boys want to fight, you'd better let them

That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite songThe nights are getting warmer, it won't be longIt won't be long till summer comesNow that the boys are here again

The boys are back in townCarnival (Puck Version)

Carnival came by my town today Bright lights from giantwheels Fall on the alleyways And I'm here By my door Waiting for you

I will never know 'Cause you will never show Come on and love me now Come on and love me now

I will never know 'Cause you will never show Come on and love me now Come on and love me now

Come on and love me now

I here sounds of lovers Barrel organs, 'cause mothers I would like to take you Down there Just to make you mine In a merry-go-rou

I will never know 'Cause you will never show Come on and love me now Come on and love me now

You always seem to know where to find meAnd I'm still here behind youIn the corner of your eye

The thick and the gray

Your blanket of woeIs so heavy and stainedAnd it only weighs you down

Now maybe if their gods be willingThey'll give us something, fill our empty cupsSit down in the boat, don�t spill itOr we'll just have to line back up

And waitSo we waitWe waitAnd waitYes we waitAnd we waitWe will waitWe will wait'Til we...

You can hear it in the beat they march toAnd you can feel the earth shake when they start to danceYou can tell by the way they move youIt's not murder, it's an act of faith, baby

And as the world moves fasterWhiplashing us round and round

It's quite a slow disasterBut people keep on falling down

As they waitWe waitYeah!And we waitWe waitAnd we waitwe waitHallelujah!Drip drop teardropI'm gonna watch you while you get me wrongI'm gonna sing until you hate this songI'm gonna tell you in my sweetest voiceI'm gonna choose you 'cause you have no choiceThis funny thing we've gotIs never gonna stopOh no I'm gonna take you to the wildernessI'm gonna show you things you might have missedI'm gonna kiss the parts that you have lostIt's gonna cost you but you might hurt lessThis funny thing we gotIs never gonna stopThis funny thing we gotIs never gonna stopUntil drip drop teardropWill we ever learnI'm gonna work 'til we get it onI'm gonna love you 'til we get alongAnd when your ears and your eyes are soreI'm gonna love you just a little bit moreThis funny thing we gotIs never gonna stopThis funny thing we gotIs never gonna stopUntil drip drop teardropWill we everWill we everWill we ever learn Overload

Overload Oh what a match we are! As we romance along Towards the firescape Open fire Forever in your arms Splendid time we have Doing what I dread Oh my lord Can I buy some time I'm learning to dance Dum-ditty-dance I'm dancing, ok?

Overlord Lord of the underworld Full-of-wonder-girl

As we twist and twirl Hot and dry High in my cloven heels This is how real love feels As we prance and die Oh my lord Such a fancy fire As we dance You sure can dance Dance dance

You I will never forget I hope you'll remember me later We're swimming in a puddle of sweat I'm hot baby, don't burn your fingers I'm tenderly served on your plate The band must continue to play

So we dance I love to dance Baby dance with me Yeah I can dance To love is to dance Now dance me home

I need some fine wine and you, you need to be nicer

Well, here's a good man and a pretty young girl Tryin' to play together somehow I'm wasting my life, you're changing the world, I get drunk and watch your head grow It's the good times that we shared And the bad times that we'll have It's the good times And the bad times that we had

Well, it's been a long slow collision, I'm a pitbull, you're a dog, Baby you're foul in clear conditions But you're handsome in the fog

So I need some fine wine And you, you need to be nicer For the good times And the bad times that we'll have

Sometimes we talk over dinner like old friends 'Til I go and kill the bottle I go off over any old thing Break your heart and raise a glass or ten To the good times that we shared And the bad times that we'll have To the good times And the bad times that we've had

Well, it's been a long slow collision, I'm a pitbull, you're a dog,

Baby you're foul in clear conditions But you're handsome in the fog So I need some fine wine And you, you need to be nicer For the good times And the bad times we know will come, yeah

Don't blame your daughter (diamonds)

Don't blame your daughter That's just sentimental And don't blame your mum For all that you've done wrong Your daddy's is not guilty You came out a little faulty And the factory closed So you can't hold them liable You come from an island You're cutting diamonds With a rubber knife

Your autograph's is worthless So don't send me letters And don't mail me cash 'Cause your money is no good What's left in your mattress Is holes and lack of love left Some hair from a horse And none of it is yours, man You come from an island You're cutting diamonds With a rubbery knife

And the song you sing today Wasn't always in your head The words you try to say Are the ones you should've said They're glistening like diamonds Go out and find them But don't blame your daughter

Read me your tombstone Tell me you're sorry Fax me your will You owe me something still Blood is like water The bath that you poured me

Has drained and is gone Don't blame it on your son

And the song you sing today Wasn't always in your head The words you try to say Are the ones you should've said They're glistening like diamonds Go out and find them, boy!

The world is full of diamonds Go out and find them But don't blame your daughter

A black cloud's hanging over the town tonight But I don't mind I don't mind There's a cold breeze cutting through the summer air But I'm not scared I don't care 'Cause we dance the night away Let's dance the night away, yeah!

Good Morning Joan

Good morning Joan Now pick up your phone It was bad but just a dream And you are remembered Put on something pretty Go back to the city In the town the sky's just space No starlight in your face Listen to Eve She's got stuff up her sleeve To her there's no excuse You've gotta use before you get used Or talk to Louise She knows all about freezing She got lost in early May And now it's December

I'd call on you if I could If you were less like me I would

Good morning Joan Did you wake up alone

Did you dream you woke up happy With a phonebook full of names Just forget about Mary She says everything's scary She got locked inside her skin Get near her, she'll drag you in

I'd call on you if I could If you were less like me I would Save you from this if I could If I were less like you, god knows I would (Save you from this) Spare us all this shit But you're all just like me so I quit!

My name is yours Can I sleep on your floor See, my heroes changed their minds And I lost my numbers

And Then You Kissed Me II

Slowdancing tight My barren heart and I Your name used to taste so sweet Then you beat the love right out of me It's a mystery how people behave! How we long for a life as a slave When he kissed me I gladly gave in To a fight nobody could win

Man, he left me blue And if I could, I would do it too I tell you now like I told you before Love is a powerful force And it's a mystery how people behave! How we long for a life as a slave And tumble into any open arms That will only ever do you harm

Oh, you you, it's always you The best kisser that I ever knew True love is cruel love Not much to be proud of Nerve-wrecking acrobatic backwards bend All for a happy end

It's a mystery how people behave! How we worry ourselves to the grave When he kissed me I lost everything Then I got up and did it again

Oh you you, it's always you The hardest hitter that I ever knew True love is cruel love Not much to be proud of Ass-kissing mercy-missing faithless friend All for a happy endBonus TracksBonus Tracks

Go down to sleep...*** Thanx a lot to Finula for this one ***Bängen Trålar(Nationalteatern cover / The Soundtrack Of Our Lives feat. Nina Persson / Nationalsånger LP)

Om du letar efter röka när du är i GöteborgUpp vid Näckrosdammen, Vasaparken eller Femmans torgKom ihåg, skvallerbytta bingbång, sitter som på nålarEtt tu tre är bängen där och trålarOch torskar du finns ingen förmildrande omständighet

En september eftermiddag lägger man sej i AllénOch man tänder liten braja, gottar sej i solens skenMen du vet, skvallerbytta bingbång, slickar alla skålarEtt tu tre är bängen där och trålarOch torskar du finns ingen förmildrande omständighet

Om du går på en nit och sen åker du ditEn semester på vatten och brödDär är tillvaron hård, där finns samhällets vårdOch dom vårdar dej intill din dödFör sånt är systemetKolla in dom du gillar, dom tjejer och killarSom sitter i samma båtOch gå hem och tänk över, fall någon behöverPolis för att göra nåt åtSjälva pundarproblemet

För den som själv har nåt att dölja ropar på förstärkt polisPropagandaapparaten skyddar dom på alla visMiljonärerna och skattefifflarna går friaDom handlar aldrig bara för en tiaOch klasstillhörigheten är en förmildrande omständighet

Night can't come quick enoughMy faults shine in the sunA train bridge of spiesWatches all the cars collide

I roll my green sleeves over rubyI don't blame you for doing it to meReal girls don't take aimLike kings do these days

I made my mind up to be a black winged birdNever turn my head for how things wereLeave the bluest skies for boys to burn

And I'll soar on my waySad as the state of things we can't change

Now we're paper dolls all aflameIn houses that all look the sameRows of regretAn arson for a wilderness

I hide my saints in the willow trunkYou started me on this junkNow my black lungs are blueBut I'm still singing to youI'm still singing to you

I made my mind up to be a black winged birdNever turn my head for how things were

Leave the bluest skies for boys to burn*** Thanx a lot to Jose for this one ***Burning down the house( With Tom Jones )Fightin' fire with fireWatch out you might get what you're afterCool babies strange but not a strangerI'm an ordinary guyBurning down the house

Hold tightWait till the party's overHold tightWe're in for nasty weatherThere has got to be a wayBurning down the house

Here's your ticket pack your bagTime for jumpin' overboardThe transportation is hereClose enough but not too farMaybe you know where you areFightin' fire with fire

All wet hey you might need a raincoatShakedown dreams walking in broad daylightThree hundred six-ty five degreesBurning down the house

It was once upon a place sometimes I listen to myselfGonna come in first placePeople on their way to work baby what did you exceptGonna burst into flameFightin' fire with fireFightin' fire with fireBurning down the house

My house'sOut of the ordinaryThat's rightDon't wanna to hurt nobodySome things sure can sweep me off my feetBurning down the houseWatch out you might get what you're afterCool babies strange but not a strangerI'm an ordinary guyBurning down the houseThree hundred six-ty five degreesBurning down the houseFightin' fire with fireFightin' fire with fireGonna burst it withFightin' fire with fireFightin' fire with fireGonna burst it withMy houseNo visible means of support and you have not seen nothin' yetEverything's stuck togetherI don't know what you expect starring into the TV setFighting fire with fire

(BBC Radio 2 Session / Ozzy Osbourne cover / Live And Learn EP)

I feel unhappyI feel so sadI've lost the best friendThat I ever had

He was my manI loved him soBut it's too late nowI've let him go

I'm going through changesI'm going through changes

We shared the yearsWe shared each dayIn love togetherWe found a way

But soon the worldHad its evil wayMy heart was blindedAnd love went astray

I'm going through changesI'm going through changes

It took so longTo realizeAnd I can still hearHis last goodbyes And now all my daysAre filled with tears I wish I could go backAnd change these years

I'm going through changesI'm going through changes I'm going through changes*** Thanx a lot to Jose for this one ***Closing time

It's closing time, and a wellknown factIs that life is very shortIt's closing time says the bandAnd it seems that life is very shortThe baker in town was fat as a cowAt the end of the day he ate all remainsThe baker in town was murdered one dayAn order was left of 200 piesWe've all got some viceAfter closing timeSo this is it!The carnival is now heading for a new townWe hope you enjoyed the show

The party at Gordon's developed into a chaosBut the report says no one was hurtAnd we've also heard that Charley actually did solve the caseThe gruesome killing of the bakermanFinally, the clown left the circus to become a plumberHe says: "Suits me just fine, and life is very fineAnd this is closing time"It's closing time, and a well known factIs that life is very shortIt's closing time says the band,And it seems that life is very shortLa lalala lala lalalaLa lala la la laLa lalala lala lalalalaLa lala la la laLife - greatest of allLife - strongest of allBut at the same time, most delicate time could well end in a moment Das Model Sie ist ein Modell und sie sieht gut aus Ich nehme sie heut' gerne mit zu mir nach Haus Sie wirkt so kuehl, and sie kommt niemand 'ran Doch vor der Kamera da zeigt sie was sie kann

Sie trinkt im Nachtklub immer Sekt (korrekt) Und hat hier alle Maenner abgecheckt Im Scheinwerferlicht ihr junges Laecheln strahlt Sie sieht gut aus und Schoenheit wird bezahlt

Sie stellt sich zu Schau fuer das Konsumprodukt Und wird von millionen Augen angeguckt Ihr neues Titelbild ist einfach Fabelhaft Ich muss sie wiedersehen, ich weiss sie hat's geschaftThe Model

She's a model and she's looking good I'd like to take her to my place She's working coolly, she won't be touched by anyone Though, before the camera she shows what she can do

In the night club she's drinking only Champagne And has checked out every man In the floodlight her young smiles glitter She's looking good, and beauty will be paid

She exposes herself for consumer products And is being seen by millions of eyes Her new cover is simply gorgeous I must see her again, I know she's made it

Deceased( Soundtrack of "randall and hopkirk" )

I'm not here to harm youSo let me disarm you, you'll see what i meanI'm yours for you already know meStay with me and show me the way to my dreams

Together we can live a life we know is realWe move silently through my room and make me feelThat love can be a place we never have to leave

Be strong, stay with me, never disappear

Deep in my heart i see clearlyWe should be revealing our secrets todayPlease, don't just stay there, i'm waitingFor the plans you've been making to take me away

Together we can live a life we know is realWe move silently through my room and make me feelThat love can be a place we never have to leaveBe strong, stay with me, never disappear

Together we can live a life we know is realWe move silently through my room and make me feelThat love can be a place we never have to leaveBe strong, stay with me, never disappear

Together we can live a life we know is realWe move silently through my room and make me feelThat love can be a place we never have to leaveBe strong, stay with me, never disappearDead leaves and the dirty ground

( White Stripes Cover / Nathan Larson & Nina Persson - Om Gud Vill EP )

Dead leaves and the dirty groundWhen I know you're not aroundShiny tops and soda popsWhen I hear your lips make a soundWhen I hear your lips make a sound

Thirty notes in the mailboxWill tell you that I'm coming homeAnd I think I'm gonna stick aroundFor a while so you're not aloneFor a while so you're not alone

If you can hear a piano fallYou can hear me coming down the hallIf I could just hear your pretty voiceI don't think I need to see at allI don't think I need to see at all

Soft hair and a velvet tongueI want to give you what you give to meAnd every breath that is in your lungsIs a tiny little gift to meIs a tiny little gift to me

I didn't feel so bad till the sun went downThen I come homeNo one to wrap my arms aroundWrap my arms around

Well any man with a microphoneCan tell you what he loves the mostAnd you know why you love at allIf you're thinking of the holy ghost When you're thinking of the holy ghost If you're thinking of the holy ghost

Thinking of the holy ghost...Desafinado( Nina Persson )

Love is like a never-ending melody Poets have compared it to a symphony A symphony conducted by the lighting of the moon Our song of love is slightly out of tune

Once your kiss has raised me to a fever pitch But now the orchestration doesn't seem so rich It seems to me you changed the tune we used to sing Like a bossanova love should swing

We used to harmonise, two souls in perfect time Now the song is different And the words don't even rhyme 'Cause you forgot the melody our hearts would always groove And what good is a heart that is slightly out of tune?

Tune your heart to mine the way it used to be Join with me in harmony And sing a song of loving We're bound to get in tune again Before too long There'll be no desafinado When your heart belongs to me completely Then you won't be slightly out of tune You'll sing along with me *** Thanx a lot to Finula for this one ***

Deuce

I am afraid of you nowNow that you left meNothing to sayNot much nowNow that you left me

You are ahead of me nowBecause you left meWords that I saidAll yours nowUse it against me

You have erased me

*** Another great thanx to Rafet For this one ***Dirty Love( Division Of Laura Lee feat. Nina Persson / Das Not Compute LP )

Hey youAnother trip on the ghostshipAnother easy trick for a steel kiss

Hey loveDoesn't make much sense but it's all the sameDo I bore youMore dirty loveSit back and cryAs your world dies

I hate to watch you blocking all the exitsTurning in to a ghostWhat can I do to get you off the dancefloor

I hate to watch you blocking all the exitsTurning in to a ghostWhat can I do to get you off the dancefloor

Hey youA clean hit on a sinking shipAnother easy fixA final chance to really exist

Hey loveTo want more than the last kissDo I bore youMore dirty loveGo try your luck'Cause your world sucks

I hate to watch you blocking all the exitsTurning in to a ghostWhat can I do to get you off the dancefloor

And I hate to watch you blocking all the exitsTurning in to a ghostWhat can I do to get you off the dancefloor

(Live at Popstad Festival '04 / The Cardigans & Nicke Borg / Bruce Springsteen cover)

[Nicke]I had a job, I had a girlI had something going, mister, in this world I got laid off down at the lumber yardOur love went bad, times got hard Now I work down at the car washWhere all it ever does is rain Don't you feel like you're a rider on a downbound train?

[Nina]I just said, "Joe, I gotta goWe had it once, we ain't got it anymore"I packed my bags, left you behindI bought a ticket on the Central LineNights as I sleep, I hear that whistle whiningI feel your kiss in the misty rainAnd I feel like I'm a rider on a downbound train

[Nicke]Last night I heard your voiceYou were crying, crying, you were so alone

[Nina]I said my love never diedAnd I'm waiting for you at home

[Nicke]Put on my jacket, I ran through the woodsI ran till I thought my chest would explodeThere in the clearing, beyond the highwayIn the moonlight, our wedding house shone

[Nicke & Nina] I rushed through the yardI burst through the front door, my head pounding hard Up the stairs I climbedThe room was dark, our bed was empty Then I heard that long whistle whineAnd I dropped to my knees, hung my head and cried Now I swing a sledge hammer on a railroad gangKnocking down them cross ties, working in the rain Now, don't it feel like you're a rider on a downbound train?

Now, don't it feel like you're a rider on a downbound train?

Now, don't it feel (don't it feel)Like you're a rider (like you're a rider)Don't it feel like you're a riderDon't it feel like you're a rider on a downbound train?*** Thanx a lot to Jose for this one ***Hold Me (Mini Version)

(Nathan Larson & Nina Persson)

You'll take the summertimeAnd I'll take the fall What I need's a better manSomeone who's right there when I call

But what good would leaving do With all these memories of youThe woman I'm supposed to beWho you'll never see

I believeThere's only one woman who's meant for youBut I don't wanna cry Just because a man expects me to

I don't wanna say goodbyeAfter all the things that we've been throughAnd I don't wanna cryJust because a manExpects me to

You're feeling wonderfulAnd I'm feeling smallI don't understand this loveI don't understand at all

What good's believing youWhen your love is so untrueThe woman I'm supposed to beWho you'll never see

I believeThere's only one woman who's meant for you But I don't wanna cry Just because a man expects me to I don't wanna say goodbyeAfter all the things that we've been through And I don't wanna cryJust because a manExpects me to

Uh� ih� uh�Lalala�

That's me in the cornerThat's me in the spotlightLosing my religionTrying to keep up with youAnd I don't know if I can do itOh no, I've said too muchI haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughingI thought that I heard you singI think I thought I saw you try

Every whisper of every waking hourI'm choosing my confessionsTrying to keep an eye on youLike a hurt lost and blinded foolOh no, I've said too muchI set it up

Consider this, consider this

The hint of the centuryConsider thisThe slip that brought meTo my knees failedWhat if all these fantasies Come flailing aroundNow I've said too much

I thought that I heard you laughingI thought that I heard you singI think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dreamThat was just a dream

That's me in the cornerThat's me in the spotlightLosing my religionTrying to keep up with youAnd I don't know if I can do itOh no, I've said too muchI haven't said enough

He's lonely He is sitting by the mirror Still broken Undressed now Ready for a new town

He loves sundays In every place Where his circus stays He loves sundays (sundays, sundays)

He loves sundays In every place Where his circus stays He loves sundays (sundays, sundays, sundays)

They love his show Their favourite part That gives them a laugh They love his show Their favourite part Relaxes their hearts

He loves sundays In every place Where his circus stays He loves sundays (sundays, sundays)

He loves sundays In every place Where his circus stays He loves sundays (sundays, sundays)

He loves sundays He loves sundays (sundays, sundays, sundays)*** Thanx a lot to Finula for this one ***The Road

We've gone a long way So why don't we stay here? The hour is late And this ain't a bad place So why don't we stay?

The road's an old friend, we've walked it forever And wandered away

Away...

Got dirt in my eyes And ran out of water, conversations ran dry We got lost in the highway We're stuck in the north now So why don't we stay?

The road is my friend, but friends are forever And roads like to bend

Bend...

We've gone a long way...

No radio stations, No signal to send The road is my friend But this is the end

The end ...What the hell are you crying for( Nina Persson & Nathan Larson )

Why don't you ask yourself What the hell are you crying for? Are you crying 'cause i'm leaving you I don't want you anymore?

Are you crying for our broken home? The picket fence, burned down hours ago It was just a stupid bet What the hell are you crying for?

Oh can you hear the lord As you clean the kitchen floor? He is talking 'bout immortal love He says i'm coming back for sure It's a moment of pure happiness And then you stand And realize you're all alone It was just a stupid game And then you cry some more

I've been drinking all around the town instead of lovin' you They say break-ups are all the same That i won't belong to ya Wipe me from your mind

Sometimes i ask myself What the hell are we crying for? We're only in it for the thrill you know Just like we've never loved before Are we crying for our selfish souls? Our hollow plans for house All spilt on romance We're believers just the same And we will try some more We're believers in this game And we will cry some more It's an interesting game

So what the hell are we crying for? *** Thanx a lot to Finula for this one ***

*** Thanx a lot to Jose for this one ***Your Love Alone Is Not Enough(Manic Street Preachers feat. Nina Persson / Your Love Alone Is Not Enough EP)

Your love aloneIs not enough, not enough, not enoughWhen times get toughThey get tough, they get tough, they get tough

Trade all your heroes in for ghostsIn for ghosts, in for ghostsThey're always the ones that love you most Love you most, love you most

Your love aloneIs not enough, not enough, not enough

It's what you feltIt's what you said, what you said, what you said

You said the sky would fall on youFall on you, fall on you, fall on youThrough all the pain your eyes stayed blueThey stayed blue, baby blue

But your love alone won't save the worldYou knew the secret of the universeDespite it all you made it worseIt left you lonely, it left you cursed

You stole the sunStraight from my heart, from my heart, from my heartWith no excusesJust fell apart, fell apart, fell apart

No you won't make a mess of meMess of me, mess of meFor you're as blind as a man can beMan can be, man can be

I could have seen for miles and milesI could have made you feel alive (alright?)I could have placed us in exile(I could've written all your lies)I could have shown you (I could have shown you) how to cry

Your love aloneIs not enoughYou love aloneIs not enough

La la la la, la la la laI could've shown youShown you how to cry

You love aloneIs not enoughYou love alone*** Thanx a lot to Jose for this one ***You're The Storm (First Demo)
