ONE OF THESE DAYS 

Smoky rooms, city noises
Traffic lights and a lot of different voices
A breeze in the trees
Evening sun... oh yes it's Saturday
Sweet summer music very fine
Too many shiny lips
Drinking too much wine
Flying dresses red and blue
Seem to walk in circles
Like tigers in high heeled shoes

It's too damn hot
I wish I'd fit my shoes
My hands are sweaty
And my belt is too tight
Ooh!
Reminds me of a chocolate I ate last night
It was hard to fight
Packed train bad news surrounds me
Testing my nerves

It's one of these days
Thunder is coming
Rain will soon start to fall
It's one of these days
Light-years of waiting
It seems like forever before you call

Steamy chat
Six White Russians
And a Pink Pussycat
Stumbling on the dance floor
Tripping on my tongue
Asking for more
Staring in another pair of eyes
And another Brazilian Sunrise

And another one
Oops, I spilt some on my T-shirt
Do I look desperate?

It's one of these days
Love seems to try me
Finding myself laughing too loud
Oh it's one of these days
I smile like a fool
Sensual feelings make me wanna shout

It's one of these days
The birds in the trees seem to sing more
And everything around me seems to shine
Oh, it's one of these days
Bright days are coming
And all the good looking men are mine

It's one of these days
Love seems to try me
Finding myself laughing too loud
it's one of these days
The birds in the trees seem to sing more
And everything around me seems to shine
It's one of these days
Bright days are coming
Wow, And all the good looking men are mine
Oh, it's one of these days
Love seems to try me
And everything around me seems to shine

PRESSING 

Rolling off my side to start the day
Spoon in my hand to scrape my milk away
Forward pressing
For the reason I am dressing
And the answers for the times I stopped to pray

Searching for an ear to ease my mind
And eyes that see enough to lead the blind
Am I pretending?
These words we share in mending
Since when did listening become a crime?

Ooh
Why, when I need some
It seems it never comes
It will be my self that I lose
If it's still myself that I choose

Justifying time i've spent alone
To turn this empty house into a home
Now undressing
The reason I was pressing
Was to find another piece to help me grow

One more smile
One more day
I've silently grown wiser for this time
One more smile
One more day
One more time
You and me!
We will see
You and me

RAINY DAY IN THE SUN 

Leave them all outside today
Let them all laugh, it's OK
They'll think you hide
Now is not the time to play
You lost something
Just start looking

It's another rainy day... for you
Another rainy day in the sun

Please don't avoid gravity
Let it pull you down
Don't waste your time laughing it off
Or try to unfold that frown

Rainy day in the sun
Rainy day
Another rainy day for you
Another rainy day in the sun

They say they're young,
wild and free
While their castles collapse in the sea
It's not what it seems
Let them all be
You'll soon find yellow and white
When you're done with blue days
Coming out of it takes a little while
You'll know when

I need rainy days
I need rainy days
I need rainy days
Even in the sun

SAD SONG (LIVE VERSION) 

Does it have to be a sad song?
Isn't it a shame?
The ones I try the hardest with
Never stay the same

And I just can't decide if it's good or bad
The times I hold the dearest are the times we never had

We've yet to have

We've yet to have

And isn't it a sad song,
It's some jazz
How perfectly we fit today,
What yesterday we passed

And I just can't consider another in your place
Holding another hand, seeing another face

We've only had

We've only had

So I guess it's a sad song
And it's a shame, oh it's a shame
'Cause I think we made a love song
And I know you feel the same

So I guess it's a sad song
And it's a shame
'Cause I think we made a love song
And I know you feel the same

It is a goodbye song
It is time for the blues
Stomp away through shallow puddles
In your water walking shoes

We only had one exquisite corpse
Over ginger and Pim's,
And the kind of back scratching
That doesn't brake skin

But we will have, oh I know it!
We will have, oh I know it!

So I guess it's a sad song
And it's a shame, oh it's a shame
'Cause I think we made a love song
And I know you feel the same

So I guess it's a sad song
And it's a shame
'Cause I think we made a love song
And I know you feel the same

We will have, I know it!
We will have, oh

SEEDS 

I'm thinking too far ahead
But 'now' is gone while you say it
You're not perfect
But I'm no perfectionist

When I come home
There are twelve in my shoes
One in my bra
The one I kept for you

Seeds seeds

They spin in twisters in the streets
On shiny days
Like they want to tell me
Something
But I'm in a hurry
And I pretend I don't see these

Seeds
In the streets
Seeds
Seeds Seeds

Plant a seed
Keep thinking you did
And it will grow
Real slow
Forget
And before you know
It's a... Tree

SHYNESS 

Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you

I bought a cocktail dress
But there was no occasion to wear it so
I threw a party myself

I invited al these people
And you never grow to old to dream
So I invited you too
I invited you too

You where talking to girls I wish I hadn't invited
You where cool and funny I could tell
Your laughter was the only thing I could hear
But I just couldn't come near

Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you

Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you

Oh what a disaster where did the purple drinks come
from
I was making confessions about things no-one needs to
know
Besides I ate all the candy, and burned a hole in my
dress
To heaven excuse I started cleaning the kitchen
I felt like crying but I was my party so I had to keep
smiling

Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you

Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
I wanted you, you, you

Oh you came my way
I couldn't believe it, you came my way
You said 'do you need someone to help you drying'

Shyness is when you turn your head away
From something you want
And I wanted you, you, you
I wanted you

SOMEDAYS 

Somedays are very lovely
People talking happily
Nice words surrounding me
The air is clean and the trees are waving at me
They appreciate my thoughts
Sunshine, soft and easy
All the colours slide trough my windows
And brighten my walls
And oh, I feel alive

Somedays give me that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing
Somedays give that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing

Wednesday was indescribable
I was shaking so many famous hands
And smiling faces made all kinds of compliments
'mmm Thank you'
That night was pretty groovy
Oh, the wine and the shoes
Made me lalalalovelife
And made me forget my nine to five

Somedays give me that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing
Somedays give that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing
Somedays give me that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing
Somedays give that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing

Somedays drain my energy
Oh no there is no remedy
I just have to find the right melody
So maybe you can sing with me

Aaahh
Somedays give me that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing
Somedays give that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing
Somedays give me that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing
Somedays Somedays
Somedays give that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing
Somedays give that feeling
Jumping dancing laughing singing

Oooohhoohoohoohpaapaaparapapaj aparapatieiteieiejabadoedabeda da

STRONGER 

Black days,
The shower is still at the height you left it
I haven't moved
And the room is only getting bigger
Time chews on my bones
Got to get out of here right now
I'm meant for more important things

I'm getting stronger every day
But it's easy cause I never been this weak
I'm getting stronger every day, every day

I brush the words out of my tong but the stories still
remain
They keep reminding me and show the road behind me
And cut them up in my dreams into pieces
Can't find the crossroad where it all went wrong, where
it all went wrong

I'm getting stronger every day
But it's easy cause I never been this weak
I'm getting stronger every day, every day
X2

I've got memories, they aren't remedy
And if you've evil thoughts, I still got your key
I'll save my energy, I'll be stronger than before
I'll get up and open some new door

I'm getting stronger every day, every day
I'm getting stronger every day, every day
I'm getting stronger every day
But it's easy cause I never been this weak
I'm getting stronger every day
I'm getting stronger every day
But it's easy cause I never been this weak
I'm getting stronger every day, every day

SWIMMER 

You want to pull me in
But I'm not a swimmer
I wish I could jump in
But the water is too dark

You do things without thinking
You still can
You change direction easily
With your eyes half closed
I look out the rear view
At the trees on the side of the road

You do things without thinking
You still can

We'll find a pace to walk in
When I've touched the ground
If you could let me know
When you're slowing down

You're running
Running wild
In the city's manic night
I am waiting
Waiting still
For soothing morning light

You do things without thinking
You still can

We'll find a pace to walk in
When I've touched the ground
If you could let me know
When you're slowing down

I'm not a swimmer
I'm not a swimmer
I'm not a swimmer

TRIED TO BE 

I tried to be new
I tried to be original
But I'm still invisible

I tried to be free
Infinite independent
But I don't seem to go anywhere

What is the solution?
I don't know what it is
Should I look for more, or is this all there is?
I don't know, I don't know

I tried to be you
Pretty smart and confident
But nothing I do looks like you

I tried to be me
Oh I tried to be real
But nothing I say or do
Comes close to what I really am

Please tell me...

I guess so...
