THE PATIENT I don't like my thoughts – don't trust my gods But won't lay down my horn and wait for a miracle Can't trust my ears – why trust my fears Why not erase this day and act... ...Like a patient – sweet and patient like the morning dew Quiet and silent sweet and violent like the sea Things turn solemn calm and awesome when I am with you You're the change – sudden and strange – the water Don't like my thoughts – don't like my frauds But won't lay down my horn and wait for a miracle I got up and worked like an animal Didn't care if I end up chemical Displayed my flesh to the canibals Can't fight my faults – why bribe my thoughts Why not cool down my soul and act... ...Like a patient – sweet and patient like the morning dew Quiet and silent blue and violent like the sea I feel sorry for my sorrows when I am with you You're the change – sudden and strange – the water I got up and worked like an animal Didn't care if I end up chemical Displayed my flesh to the canibals To shut up or to act like a radical To be a rock or to be compatible Poor boys end up dramatical Don't like my thoughts – don't trust my gods But won't lay down my horn and wait for a miracle No game no shame – no flash no flame Let me lay down my head and feel... ...Like a patient – sweet and patient like the morning dew Quiet and silent sweet and violent like the sea I feel solemn calm and awesome when I am with you You're the change – sudden and strange – the water You're the change – solemn and strange – the water You're the change – awesome and strange – the water Sudden and strange – the water Sudden and strange – the water Sudden and strange – the water Sudden and strange...

GET RID Again and again you wake me up in the middle of the night Don’t know how I’ll ever find some sleep I toss and turn and press a pillow on my head But the sound is getting through to me Every beat on your drum feels like a bomb in my brain I’d love to throw ’em right back to your door But instead I dial your number and again and again and again I ring your bell But tonight it’s even louder than all the nights before Get rid, get rid, get rid, get rid of your little drum kit I better try to think big and I think I try to cool down As I’m searching for distraction and some patience But I can’t relax my muscles ’coz I’m blinded by sweat I start to understand the wars between the nations So you don’t hear what I’m saying, stop playing, start praying I’m running out of the place I can’t stand it no more ’Coz every beat on your drum is like a kick in my face And all the neighbours are waiting here outside of your door Get rid, get rid, get rid, get rid of your little drum kit Alright my friend, come on, enough is enough We come to see you, eye to eye, will you still be tough? But as we enter the place, there’s no one home There’s just a tiny little drum set, all alone But still there’s noise, there’s a heavy boom boom We realize it’s coming out of your sleeping room And as we turn on the light it’s the end of the fight ’Coz it’s the end of the night and we all sing Get rid, get rid, get rid of your little drum kit (Music & words: Hattler & Kraus.

SAD NEWS I'm not the one, not the one you've been looking for You didn't wait for the face o'mine but you expect a sign So you open your home though I didn't even touch your door And I never did before Just standing here no fear but if you wish I take shape Out of a shapeless atmosphere And I start to exist as a substitute of truth Don't let me in coz I'm bringing sad news It's not the other, it's you or not just the others But you and the others - it's us too If we isolate it's too late coz we wait for the things to come But we are the ones to do the first step To be ahead of the ones who still wanna wait Until it might be too late - to face the truth It could even be a start if I'm bringing sad news You're not the one who's been born without expectations You're longing for love and wisdom, an incomplete system Violent but taught to fight temptations Aggressive, obedient, obsessed like nations But we are the ones to do the first step To be ahead of the ones who still wanna wait But it's never too late to face the truth It could even be a start if I'm bringing sad news (Music & words: Hattler & Kraus.

BELLE AFFAIRE Come on - yeah - come on in come on out It's never too late for the perfect date Come on and have a look at us two Even if you don't care It's a trumpet and a bass - quelle belle affaire (Music & words: Hattler & Kraus. Published by Wintrup Musikverlage)

WHATCHAGONNADO Whatchagonnado if the sky turns blue When you leave the ways that you always walked on So what you gonna do if all your dreams come true Though you never knew what the hell to do Whatchagonnado if the sky turns blue When you leave the ways that you always walked on So what you gonna do if all your dreams come true Though you never knew what the hell to do Whatcha gonna say if the world turned grey And all the things don't work that you always worked on So what to do if dreams won't come true Though you always knew what the hell to do Whatcha gonna say if the world turned grey And all the things don't work that you always worked on So what to do if dreams won't come true Though you always thought you knew what the hell to do (Music & words: Hattler & Kraus.
