Golden Earring - (Kill Me) Ce Soir - lyrics

Remember that song called "Kill me"
From Vick Timm's last LP
Too much of a risk
for a golden disc
The price he paid for money
Ce soir, Ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star
Sing your song, you can't go wrong
Attempted his business adviser
No need for alarm
you'll come to no harm
He didn't mention the sniper
Ce soir, Ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star
The news is read, the meaning spread
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed
Turn off the light and hold me tight
Come on maman, bend down your head
And just sing on, immortal song
Fini belle vie, bonne nuit
Remember that song called "Kill Me"
A lecture on political chicanery
of people's rape
recorded on tape
Bought shame to the presidency
Tonight, tonight
One more point for human right
Remember that song "Kill Me"
once used by a man from Galilee
He had nothin' to lose
He was king of the Jews
Secured his place in history
Ce soir, Ce soir
assassination d'un provocateur
The news is read, the voice is spread
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed
Turn off the light and hold me tight
Come on maman, bend down your head
And just sing on, immortal song
Fini belle vie
Vick played the part, with all his heart
He wasn't prepared for the shock
When howling lead
bit into his head
A new martyr for the book of rock
Ce soir, Ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star

Golden Earring - 42nd Street - lyrics

From the Album:
* Paradise in distress
Spiralling leapers, wearing Nike sneakers
Some of them laugh, some of them sing
Some of them don't do a goddamn thing
Trip-skipping drifters, grafters and lifters
Chicks with big tits, school boys with zits
Moonlight circus of earthly delights
Pimpmobile cruising the soft, velvet night
Deals going down, midnight in town
Donw in the subways, the underground tunnels
A musician is playing, a drunk stumbles and mumbles
Out in the park it's scary with frights
Somebody shot out all the streetlights
Hookers and bookies, floozies and boozers
All kinds of misfits, perverts and losers
Out of the limo that looks like a boat
The pimp steps out in a mink fur coat
Sporting a fedora, that creates its own aura
A ruby-tooth grin and a diamond stick pin
A deal's going down this side of town
People walk on fleet feet
On the way down 42nd Street
Except for the bums, down for the count
That one's dead but no one's found out
And look at the *****, with her dress up her ass!
When she moves that thing, she must move it fast
Cop with a nightstick, checking around
A neon lit junkie slides to the ground
Here comes a flasher, a jogger, a punk
Check out that guy, drunk as a skunk!
Blinking, reflection, lights melt in the rain
The sidewalks are empty, nothing's the same
4 A.M. people are crashing
Where the hookers are huddled
Colored raindrops are splashing
The deals have gone down, the bimbo's split town
Burned from the hustle, burned from the hype
But under the lights, I'm feeling alright
On 42nd Street it's just another night

Golden Earring - Against The Grain - lyrics

From the Album:
* Grab it for a second
Once I dreamed I was falling
Like a feather from a tree
The welcoming committee cheered
Must have been a sight to see
Right there in the middle
Of a sweaty night in Rome
Someone showed a million feathers
How to be a bird on their own
Though we never got to flyin'
I was woken by the phone
I can hear it calling
Get aboard the last train
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain
Once I thought I was flyin'
Had a taste of the witches seed
Got me so excited
Couldn't get back on my feet
Then without a warning
Soft whisper in my ear
If you feel like playin' honey
Let's go get out of here
But we never got to playin'
'Cause I passed out
Out of of fear
I can hear it calling
Get aboard the last train
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain

Golden Earring - All Day Watcher - lyrics

From the Album:
* Together
Well in a few more hours, and millions of people
hate their alarm clock, even more than their wives
The day is beginning, you can tell by the sunrise
People get ready for a day in their lives
They're getting together, in the streets of the cities
Like lost computers of a shattered tribe
They're all in a hurry, to be in time
some for promotion, some to stay alive
Yeah, yeah
I'm the all day watcher, that's all I do
I'm the all day watcher, I'm watching you
Well I shake my head and I shake my brain
And I don't understand why they're all the same
I weigh pro's and con's, against their lives and mine
But I don't know, it's beyond my frame of mind
Beyond my frame of mind, yeah
Oeh, in a few more minutes, and millions of people
hear the whistle of freedom, blowing through their head
They push and they hurry and the herd starts moving
they follow the trail back home again
Where they're taking it easy, with a box of beer
Watching the late late show on color TV
and life ain't easy, when you're livin' that way
But sometimes I wonder, maybe it's fun everyday
Yeah, yeah

Golden Earring - Angel - lyrics

Angel, fly angel fly
Angel, angeeeellll, angeeeeeelllllllll !
The one time I didn't know what to do
I had a problem with my attitude
‘cos I never had, never had
the young man blues, the blues before
Well I know it means none, none to you
Everyman's gotta walk in his own shoes
ain't that hard, it sure is hard to see
Straight from the heart
Can't find nothing on my shopping list
I only keep hammerin' the nail I miss
I just cannot help, believin', that heaven, is hard on
Well I know it don't mean a damn to you
The left hand guessin' what the right'll do
Now ain't that, ain't that,
the way it is, as a matter of fact
Straight fron the heart
refrain:
and I'm floating like a swan on a waterbed
drowning in a pond, in a pool of regret
tryin' to remember not to forget
how you bring me down with your kiss of death
Angel, angel, angeeeeeellllllll
I'm entertaining all the Gods for you
Buddah and Jezus and the other one too
Now ain't that, ain't that
like apple juice, forbidden fruit
Moon jump, flyin' back to the sun
Cool burn visible for everyone
and the blood flows, don't you know
All through your body and back to your soul
Straight from the haert
refrain:
and I'm floating like a swan on a waterbed
drownin' in a pond, in a pool of regret
tryin' to remember not to forget
how you bring me down, with your kiss of death

Golden Earring - Another 45 Miles - lyrics

From the Albums:
* The ***** truth
* Last blast of the century
Here comes the night
A veil over the light
In the distance some shadows of the clouds in the sky
I've got to get home, to my child, my wife
Here comes the night
I'm scared to death, got to get me a ride
It looks like the road is swallowing me up
Gotta hurry home, don't dare to look back
Blueville is straight ahead
Another 45 miles to go
Another 45 miles before I'm home
I wish i could pay the sun to run
Then I had some more time, with my wife, my son
Clouds in the sky
Gathering for a fight
Chasing their prey, till it can't go on
I mend my pace, ‘cos my bride is waiting home

Golden Earring - Albino Moon - lyrics

You look real good in your blue jeans
And a pink sweater
But in a *****tail dress I guess
You look even better
I got your photographs
And the memories lined up on the table
But you're gone with the wind
And I wish I was dead
Just like Clark Gable
The sun goes down for a lonely fool
Like darkness in the temple of doom
I need a guiding light
Tell me What am I supposed to do...
Albino Moon
Where you been tonight?
Hidin' behind a cloud
Albino Moon...
Albino Moon
What's it all about?
Hidin' behind a cloud
Albino Moon...
Am I blind or am I right
Pour your light into my room
Make my baby find her way back home real soon
Albino Moon
Put your red lips on my daydream
Imagine we're together
In the back-seat of my car
On the shiny white leather..
I got your photographs
And the memories lined up on the table
But you're gone with the wind
And I wish I was dead
Just like Clark Gable
The sun goes down for a lonely fool
Like darkness in the temple of doom
I need a guiding light
Tell me...What am I supposed to do...
Albino Moon
Where you been tonight?
Hidin' behind a cloud
Albino Moon...
Albino Moon
What's it all about?
Hidin' behind a cloud
Albino Moon...

Golden Earring - Apocalypse - lyrics

From the Album:
* Paradise in distress
I've been faster
Than my own shadow
I've been colder
Than a icepick you know
What really matters
Is a heart of gold
And a whole lotta money
And a fat checkbook
Been a gambler
Had nothing better to do
Been crazy for fools like you
What really matters is
Make a dream come true
I ain't playing with fire no more
Ain't gonna play with fire no more
Well I was walking down the street
In my Italian shoes
I was minding my own business
Just goin' with the flow
I could feel the hot sunshine
On my back
I started singin'
To the rythm of the city noise
Yeah yeah yeah
Well I was knockin'
Opportunity right on its head
In my silver coloured suit
And my Panama hat
Yeah, I had nothin' to fear,
I had places to go
And I swear I felt lightnin'
In my bones
I said yeahÂ…
Down, down, down the Apocalypse
Down, down, down with negative
Down, down my dice come a-rollin'
Down, down with a double-six evidence
Down deep the sound
Of my heart I believe
Tells me life's there for lovin' it!
Oh, oh yeahÂ… (through the air)
Well I'm tapdancin'
Floatin' on thin air
High on nothin'
'Xcept sweet adrenalin
And I see somethin' behind a tree
It's the mother of God
Got her eyes on me
She says yeahÂ…

Golden Earring - A Shout In The Dark - lyrics

From the Album:
* The hole
It's rainin' on a summernight
I'm gonna take a ride on a dreamboat
Don't know 'bout it's destination
Higher than the clouds

Golden Earring - A Sound I Never Heard - lyrics

I'm kicking down the road
I got a top hat on
With my head in overload
I heard a radio song
There was something in the air
I think I know it well
Watchin' everybody stare
You know I never tell
You knocked me to the floor
With a sound I never heard (2x)
I was walking down the street
Saw you sneakin' out your house
Know who you're gonna meet
In the criminal hour
Saw you slip right through the door
You whispered just a word
Then you knocked me to the floor
With a sound I've never heard
