I’ve Been On The Borderline
Hey hey my my
I’ve been on the borderline
MDMA
Crystals that will make me fine
Cocaine monkey
It will never go away
Smoked tweed, lush fish
Colored balloons on drift
How do you see me?
How do you know me?
Green chair, yellow hair
Hello, do I know you name?
Please sir, help me
I’ve been here for three long days
Oh black skin night
Where have you taken me?
Shantytown girl
Shadows of your darkest dreams
How do you see me?
How do you know me?
Hey hey my my
I’ve been on the borderline
Red, pink, black, bliss
One more kiss, just one more kiss
Cream hole, snowflakes
Blisters inside your jeans
Bam bam soldier boy
I sure would like to see you again

Having You On My Mind
On any day
At any time
I will be
Having you on my mind
Honey I love you
Like the clouds love their rain
But I let you fall
I just wish I could pick you up again
On any day
When the sun don’t shine
I will be
Having you on my mind
Baby I love you
Like the sailor loves the wind
But you fell overboard
I just hope you can swim back home again
On any day
In a dream of mine
I will be
Having you on my mind
Baby I love you
Like the poet loves his pain
But the words turned to dust
I just wish I can write to you again
On any day
When I’m drinking my mind
I will be
Having you on my mind
Baby I love you
Like the boxer loves the ring
But I lost the round
I just hope I can win back you again
On any day
In the hardest of times
I will be
Having you on my mind
Baby I love you
Like the drifter loves his cane
But the mountain road was lost
I just hope we can find our way again

You are my little bird
You sing those sweet tunes
into my ear
Like a mockingbird
You are little baby
You’ve got your new shoes on
You clip-clopping the street
Like an old Victorian storm
We are the couple of the day
But our moments under your sheets
was never about pleasure
But of your conquer and my defeat
The taste of bittersweet, they say
And one day the battlefield changed
Our army fell apart
My shield shining in the sun
But it could not protect my heart
From the bullet of your gun
All I have left of you now
Is the aching
I don’t know how I can walk through life
Without thinking
About you and your soul
Baby I get down on my knees
I’m praying
That the wound will finally heal
And we'll be forgiven
For wasting so much time

Rwanda
We go out at night
To see the city lights
Wandering the broken streets
In the wet, still, dripping heat
We come out a night
Go down to the river side
Where the ships lay still
for the morning tide
Won’t you be
My Rwanda
I see you down by the water
Won’t you be
My Kolonko
I see you down by the brothel
We come out at night
To see the city lights
Follow the river tide
Down to the green line
We come out at night
Live amongst the fireflies
By the sleeping trees
Slowly swaying in pride
Won’t you be
My Rwanda
I see you down by the water
Won’t you be
My Kolonko
I see you down by the brothel

Bad Man

I am a bad man
I hurt those around me
I do as I please
Love is just a word
I don't know what it means
I am a bad man
It's a lonely place
to be without friends
I have myself
It is hard in the end
I am a bad man
