So that's the horns
And it's about to get funky y'all...Welcome To The Trip..ow!!
Don't you drag it if you love me
Call me
Give your body what it needs to
Show me
That you want me too
That you will be good
That you know this tune
Take me to the Moon
Call me (ring, ring) x 4
Call me
There's no room for your confusion
Call me
I can be more than (an) illusion
And show you
That I need you too
And I think I could
Make you happy soon
Take you to the Moon
Call me (ring, ring) x 4
Call me
Do your reggae thing, Mr Salmon.....
Oh yeah!
Chorus:
(Take the) Red car
I'm ready to drive it now
(Take the) Red car
I'll follow the road to you
(Come on) Red car
Talking about tonight
(Take the) Red car x2
Don't you remember
When we were very young?
Your mother never showed up
But your papa did a couple of times
You shared the same blue eyes
And you both broke my heart
Chorus
Baby, baby, tell me
Why we never kissed under the sun?
I want you, want you so much now
I never, never knew someone so fine
Oh, that's fine too....
Keep it going...uh!
And again now! Oh, yeah, oh...
Life was so easy
Our love was real and strong, oh yeah
They said: "Is she now the man?"
Stupidity from those that we left behind
We shared the same feelings
How come that can't be right
Chorus
She used to be the one
That kissed me every night
She used to be my baby
She used to be my morning sun
And now I feel she's lonely
And now I feel she's far
She used to be my baby
But I made her run tonight
Chorus
Now she is not my sweet baby
No, no, she's not, my, my baby x2
She used to be my lover
She used to be my friend
She used to be the woman walking always by my hand
She used to be my secret
She used to be my dream
She used to be my the first one when I needed company
(Now I want her company)
Chorus
Why am I still thinking of you?
Maybe we both know
How come you seem now so far?
I've never said goodbye
I don't care about our life
I don't care about the friends that we have lost
I don't care about you anymore
I don't care about you anymore
Why am I still feeling the same?
Maybe we both know
Is this the thing that you want?
This kind of: "Well....you know.."
I don't care about the sadness
I don't care about the places where we lived
I don't care about you anymore
I don't care about you anymore
Why am I still waiting for a call?
The phone is on the wall
Why don't you go and do something
Or is your fear so big?
I don't care about the money
I don't care about the tears that we both spent
I don't care about you anymore
I don't care about you anymore
You were standing
I offered you a seat
Didn't you see me
Or didn't want to see?
Life goes on a bus
How come you don't care? x2
Outside is raining
Umbrellas on the floor
A child is crying
That wasn't in your book
Life rides on a bus
How come you don't care? x2
If I had a pillow
I would fall sleep here right now
If I was a good boy
Running back to mum
If I was somewhere else again
(Life goes on a, life goes on a bus)
Right here, right now I
Find strangers everywhere
I wan't to be nice
Or am I very scared?
Life goes on a bus
How come you don't care?x2
Eternité du silence
Dans ma tête ś entêtent
De voluptueuses volutes indécentes
Près de moi une vieille dame toujours séduisante
Frissonne sous les coups de langue
De son fougueux amant
Les mots parfois parlent peu à l'esprit
C'est l'horizon qui nous lie
Volutes...voluptueuses volutes
J'en ai rêvé souvent
Au hasard d'une route ,un chemin
C'est aujourd'hui l'heure enfin
Ou l'éternité se conjugue au présent
Ici et maintenant
Maintenant...
Si tu me vois enfin...
She's lonely
She's all alone
And yet she has too much to live again
She's pretty
She's wonderful
But yet she has to learn to love herself
She's lonely
She's lonely
She's broken
But in one piece
She has to paint the picture with her hands
She dances
But does not move
Her life should be a concert every day
She's lonely
She's lonely
She's lonely
She's all alone
And yet she has a brand new open door
She's lonely
She's all alone
And yet she has to learn to live again
She's lonely
She's lonely
Something inside of my shoe
Makes me feel so sad
There we go, I guess I'm falling
I took a picture last night
Now I don't see the point
But take a look: she looks so pretty
Chorus
Falling tears from my eyes
I think this love was true
Baby, is Sunday
Will you come for your things
Or will you pick me up?
We could talk; we never did it
Just pretending that we
Were living just a lie
Since you've gone
I want to fix these...
Chorus
Who's living under my skin?
If both were just a lie
Tell me why do I still love you
What's running wild just so fast
'cause when I look it's gone
What's the time? I think I'm older
Chorus
I wonder how did we stop the war
There's a blue sky and kisses under the sun
It must be magic, magic it must be
I wear the clothes that you left behind
They suit me fine (like) another glass of wine
It must feel (like) magic, (like) magic it must feel
Magic, magic, it must feel
I'm not your son, you are not a friend of mine
Still through all we're living with one mind
It must be magic, magic it must be
Grab my hand, cry baby, I don't care
I know we're happy and it seems we're never late, oh no!
It must feel (like) magic, (like) magic it must feel
Magic, magic, it must feel
I can't believe that you are finally coming
You should know you'll find me here ready for you
My love, from now on
I can't be sad
I should be glad
To have another song to sing to
You and I will be practising soon
How to stay always in tune
And I will, and you will, 'cause we will
Play every day
And I will, and you will
'cause I can't believe that you are finally coming so soon...
about
On this collection of songs, I went back to my personal catalogue of original material and joined forces with friends from all over the world (Spain, Chile, Brasil, UK & France) to create an eclectic album full of all time references from The Beatles, 70's rock, 80's funk-pop, jazz and reggae to classic songwriting. This work tries to emulate old LP releases where all songs were contained in 40 minutes or less and the focus rested on song crafting rather than the pristine production of the current "digital" times. Nevertheless it was recorded using digital technology and it is the first album in the history of music to feature a dog as a sound engineer. Seriously.
MUSIC features the singles: "Red Car", "Magic" & "Life On A Bus"
The tracks “Magic”, “Sunday” & “She’s Lonely” were Commended Entries at the UK SONGWRITING CONTEST in 2015 on the Rock, Singer-Songwriter & Acoustic & Folk categories respectively.
