you think you’re denying me of something
well i’ve got plenty
you’re the one who’s missing out
but you won’t notice
’til after five years
if you’ll live that long
you’ll wake up
all loveless
i dare you
to take me on
i dare you
to show me your palms
i’m so bored with cowards
that say they want
then they can’t handle
you can’t handle love
you can’t handle love
you just can’t handle
i dare you
to take me on
i dare you
to show me your palms
what’s so scary ?
not a threat in sight
you just can’t handle
you can’t handle love
you can’t handle love, baby
you can’t handle love
it’s obvious
you can’t handle
i dare you
to take me on
i dare you
to show me your palms
i’m so bored of cowards
that say they want
then they can’t handle
you can’t handle love, baby
you can’t handle love,
it’s obvious
you can’t handle
i dare you, i dare you
i dare you, i dare you
a day called zero
is the day we’ll all relax
mountains will tumble
with a long and heavy thump
dust spreads on the sky
so the sun will grow pale
oil tanks tear open
and the city livens up
a day called zero
will be such a busy day
whistling marches?
i’ll hoover my past away
controlling a bulldozer
i will improve my town
stacking concrete slabs
me and you my pluto
will you be with me on that day?
we’ll be watching and smiling
at last it’s over
nothing stops us now
come and enter
me let’s multiply
on a day called zero
i can not live
peacefully without you
for even a moment
i miss you terribly
when you’re away
he’s away
this ain’t right
i’m alone
i’m taking an aeroplane
across the world
to follow my heart.
how come
out of all the people in the world
only one
can make me complete
one word, one word on the phone
makes me happy
one touch, but one touch directly
makes me ecstatic
he’s away
this ain’t right
i’m alone
i’m taking an aeroplane
across the world
to follow my heart
wo-oo-ooh hoh!
i have walked this earth
and watched people
it doesnt scare me at all
i can be sinsere
and say i like them
it doesnt scare me at all
an-bithelafter-mer
an-yeah-hoh-oh
an-be-ja-a-a-ha-ha
you can’t say no to hope
can’t say no to happiness
i want to go on a mountain-top
with a radio and good batteries
and play a joyous tune and
free the human race
from suffering
it doesnt scare me at all
i’m no fucking buddhist
but this is enlightenment
the less room you give me
the more space i’ve got
it doesnt scare me at all
an-chamel-after
an-yeah-hoh-oh
an-be-ja-a-a-ha-ha
you can’t say no to hope
can’t say no to happiness
it doesnt scare me at all
i want to be on a mountain-top
with a radio and good batteries
and play a joyous tune and
free the
a-human race
from suffering
it doesnt scare me at all
this is an alarm-call
so wake-up, wake-up now
woo-oo-ooh!
today has never happened
and it doesnt frighten me
it doesnt scare me at all
an-bithel-after
an-yeah-hoh-oh
an-che-ja-a-a-ha-ha
you can’t say no to hope
you can’t say no to happiness
wo-oo-ooh!
it doesnt scare me at all, wo-oo-ooh! ….
