The Ballad Of Jerry
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
Sad was the day
and sharp was the noise
when the hang out kid saw
that his punishment came
He spent too much time
in praying for joy
It's all about a boy
First came the flashes
followed by crashes
when jealousy rose
in the form of a pistol
Just ashes of wishes
remained in his dishes
It's all about a boy
Jerry can dance,finally
Left all his plans
so far behind
Jerry can dance
it's plain to see
For the last time tonight
Between the sky
and the planks of the scaffold
when the wind it kneels down
and says: God bless you boy
His prayer for bliss
it had been raffled
it's all about a boy
Jerry can dance, finally
Left all his plans so far behind
Jerry can dance it's plain to see
Fot the last time tonight
Jery can dance finally
Left all his plans so far behind
Jerry can dance,
it's hellish to see
For the last time tonight
What have you done sonny-boy
now you're dancing there
on your own
You've got your rope
you're jerking alone
Straight To Your Heaven
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
The steam is rising off the river
the night takes a big bite from the moon
The passion's burning in fever
and an angel's warming dope in a silver spoon
Go straight to your heaven...
Tonight the gallows birds are happy
whistling the devil's weary blues
They don't need a goddamned penny
they're just twisting away in pointed shoes
Go straight to your heaven...
Fish headed guys came off a picture
Bosch with his dreampipe blessed them all
They're dancing tango with a vulture
gay spirits riding for a fall
Go straight to your heaven...
Lord came down with some angels
Up there He was sad and bored
He drank a coctail with a stranger
and then hit the road in the Devil's ford
Go straight to your heaven...
As Perfect Strangers
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
All over the world
the time is the same the time
when we are changing
New ways to find
old ones to blame
just save a smoke for the morning
I could cry, cry for the Savior
for I hope every evening t
hat my flame sleeps away
and the whole wide world
is an ashtray for me in the morning
As perfect strangers
I wear down the world
meeting bad angels
down on the earth
Under the sky the scene is the same
we sin and then comes the praying
Wounded girls wounded games
they try to keep on playing
I had a tale and I had a partner
but now they're gone with the night train
There must be a wind up or down under
that shows me the right way
As perfect strangers
I wear down the world
meeting bad angels
down on the earth
Fellows, it seems
I'm losing the flame
and running out of dreams
with the morning train
Party In My Bones
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
I'm shuffling down on the street
this cold night laid me bare
I'm going down with the stream
into the city's blare
Passing by the hooker's row tempting lips,
oh burning curse
Hey babe save yourself for tomorrow
keep your passion in your purse
Came on! I can hear those crazy tones
If I can't find a party,
I'll have a party in my bones
I'm spinning round and round
around my tattooed bones
The dreams are razed to the ground
and covered with heavy stones
Passing by the junky's square
it feels so dizzy, feels so gay
A giddy sniff from the air
and I'm dating fairies right away
Come on! I can hear those crazy tones
If I can't find a party,
I'll have a party in my bones
I'm falling outta my skin
into the midnight glass
The shade of human sin
is walking on magic grass
Bright morning makes me sober
Twilight's gone it seems so dull
I fall prey to the brandy soaked suburb
Hey, pour some brandy in my skull!
Come on! I can hear those crazy tones
If I can't find a party,
I'll have a party in my bones
Touch Of Fall
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
November cold rain
shadows and fears
blows out my brain
shedding my tears
All those bad years
just pain in my feet
The sound of your words
a pain in my ears
Shalalilappara
Shalalilappadoo
I'm rambling around
I've gotta find you
Deep in the redness
I rested my head
right on your shoulder
and sang
Oh, Ma Cherie
let me do it one more time
I have a glory
when you're mine
Red yellow leaves
covered the town
No one believes
they all fell down
An old one legged priest
tolling the bell
He takes one more drink
then falls into hell
Shalalilappara
Shalalilappadoo
There's nothing to find
There's nothing to loose
Honey I want you
to bring me a beer
It ain't no use
to scream
Oh, Ma Cherie
let me do it one more time
I have a glory
when you're mine
I put out my last butt
I feel nothing at all
I'll drink my last shot
then I've gotta go
When I feel run down
I'll finish the show
then disappear down
in Mexico
Shalalilappara
Shalalilappadoo
When you’re around
Then I’ve gotta move
You give me the feeling
it's a walk on the moon
and I dance on the ceiling
with you
Oh, Ma Cherie
let me do it one more time
I have a glory
when you're mine
If You Pay, I Sing
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
Jesus made a miracle
Jesus made a miracle
Jesus made my bottle walk
My day has come,
I've gotta go
but I still have
a song to show
a song that makes
your bottle go
I've gotta fly
when a banjo rings
But my maker gave me
hands not wings
So I've gotta fly with drinks
It's easier than
you would think
to sip the drink
just sip the drink
If you pay
I try to sing anything
I'll try to drink anything
Fever
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
When the clocks strike
at last you gotta be in fever
I've gotta leave home too
when the last train's gone
We slide in the tattered town
and we float on the edge of time
Screaming eyes and glowing fever
When the ghost of the town
rolls around in fever
And the sky spreads a hundred thousand tears
A dealer's mumbling
a prayer bells are jangling a hell off a lay
When bells ring out you find me in fever
Well, just keep on movin
the full moon tells you where to go
Well, just keep on moving
'cause the devil's never gonna say:
you're wrong
There's a poet with his poem
what a poor boy!
He's stumbling with his muse right beside
He offers his poem some wine
his eyes have infernal shine
this fallen minstrel singing of fever
Heaving sin in my skin is shaking in fever
The fall in your arms gets hot
it's sweating love
We drift on the breath of the night
A million sighs in the pale yellow light
the need is begging for fever
Well, just keep on moving
The full moon tells you where to go
Well, just keep on moving
'cause the devil's never gonna say:
You're wrong
At The Table Of Gloom
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
Silver rain's falling over the town
Looks like the angels are pissing on the sly
Lost at the counter, silently raped by the time
I'm a stranger in the jungle and the bells ring in the sky
My darling came but she just slowly passed by
She left on the window a misty, pale good bye
Now I'm just wondering what is left to be mine
I'm a pauper in the jungle and the belss cry in the sky
Please! What's going on here
Langour weaves all over the room
What's real in the web of grey fear?
I'm just a man at the table of gloom
A rusty shape is playing a broken guitar
He looks like an angel who came down here to die
On the edge of nothing, where the dawn meets the night
I'm a jester in the jungle, and the belss scream in the sky
A numbing chain ties me down to the ground
I feel like a lame bird who's still trying to fly
Just like the wind blows sleepy leaves through the town
I'm chased by a nightmare that belss fall from the sky
Please! What's going on here
Langour weaves all over the room
What's real in the web of grey fear?
I'm just a man at the table of gloom
Make It Double
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
It's time to het a bit crazy
This night is a devilish child
Come Lady, come get dizzy Hey!
Come with me honey rip this night
It's time to jump in a limousine
This time is brimming with life
It's a rush, you better get more kerosine
Come with me for a burning ride
Hey brother make it double! '
Cause who knows how long your can
Please don't ever mind the trouble just like me
This time I feel like Willy
Willy Shabby was a fatalist boy
When the end came he wasn't shilly shally
Hey! Come with me Willy boy just once more
Its time, go cross the river
Cross the Styx with the ferrymen's ship
The other world is just another bummer
If you pay at the devil's inn leave a tip
Hey brother make it double
'Cause who knows how long you can
Please don't ever mind the trouble
live a life that's worth to spend
You just never know what's coming
Squeeze out every drop you can
If the bad fate cuts your running
you'll always have your rest
Just A Dream
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
I was down in the Hell's Ditch
along with my fears where time fell asleep
and it's dreaming I saw a girl wrapped up in tears
It was you, once again you
I reached out my hand straight to you...
Just a dream...
I met ramblers and gamblers hunters and prey
The aimlessly roamed in the jungle
Begging was useless even to pray
but you could walk on the waves
under the skies and over the shades
Come Lady, come Come be real
Come Lady, come through the dreams to me
Down in the town where the damned people live
I heard soft moans and loud screaming
There was a sound that come to my ears
it was you, once again you
I reached out my hands straight to you...
Just a dream...
Now I'm just stuck to the counter without any dreams
Time is awake in the morning
I can see you down on the street and it's you,
oh the real you selling your charms deep in the blue
Come Lady, come come call in here
Come Lady, come
We'll blow away this dream...
Eugene's Cool Blues
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
Check it out here comes Eugene
with a hash smile on his face
He rolls around in his blue jeans
with a tooth brush in his guitar case
When I go with him,
then I don't know where I'm going.
Check it out here comes the evil
With him you could sing a song
Hey man, here comes the evil
I'm sure you could make a hell of a row
When I go with him,
then I don't know where I'm going.
Hey man, says the evil
I'm taking home my trusty steed
Hey man, says the evil stay high,
say hi to the night for me
When I go with him,
then I don't know where I'm going.
Check it out here comes Eugene
in a funky plastic form
Check it out here comes Eugene
and he's dying for a liquor store
When I go with him,
then I don't know where I'm going.
Hey man, waddaya say
we drink a couple of hot shots of whatever.
Hey, and get a handle on that chick problem of yours.
Just sink me "Bottle up & Go".
Hey man, don't worry, the night will take care of you.
Finale
Music: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius Lyrics: Kiss Tibor & Varga Livius
You can be cautious
or just a rebel
Until the day the Lord
kicks your bell
Angel or devil
who can unravel
So just blow it all to hell
You can be lovely
You can be ugly
It aint no matter
if you sing or bark
'Cos where we all go
Just poison ivy
will grow wild on your heart
