Small Mind 00:45
All the empty words flying out of your mouth and into my small mind All the little birds are flying around in the little blue sky Never mind the things that they might tell you go and find your own truth

There is no more coffee left you have to go and buy some to buy coffee you need money money is bad because it's everywhere Everything is full of capital everything is full of shit everything is full of smoke and noise and my voice smoke and noise and my voice She lights a cigarette in the room where we could drink coffee now she's going to the internet that's the first thing you do in the morning Outside men are building houses that makes a lot of noise inside she's smoking a cirgarette and i'm making music yeah

Fire 04:21
I could use a little fire here I could use a little fire here You know it’s nice sitting here On the balcony with you But my feet are pretty cold And I can see you’re shivering We could use a little fire here Uh what you say? We could use a little fire here There’s a nice fire place inside I ain’t sure if you want me Ain’t sure if I want you I still assume that you’re lonely And we could do each other good So the wine keeps flowing down Down our throats Soon the bottle is empty And I don’t want to be alone I don’t want to be alone! You know it’s nice sitting here On the balcony with you But my feet are pretty cold And I can see you’re shivering We could use a little fire here Uh the crackling sound of wood We could use a little fire here And maybe a blanket

I tried to write a song yesterday and I was playing it through a couple of times 'till suddenly I knew that it was nothing new yeah it's been here before this melody that's why it's just a little disappointing this song you know it's just a little disappointing this song and you go la la-la-la yes it is yeah you go la la-la-la yes indeed I tried to talk to you yesterday yes I was and I wanted to express my deepest inner emotions but all the words i used they didn't belong to me, no they were culturally indoctrinated that's why it's just a little disappointing this language you know it's just a little disappointing this love finally it's just a little disappointing this live and you go la la-la-la la la shopping

Darlin' I'm glad that we ate something before we went to bed not only to protect myself from a huge hangover but also to get something in my tummy so that the love in there wouldn't be on its own creating a vacuum and implode And I know that I sound like a stupid singer-songwriter this time I can't be serious about using those words like love and speechless but I am speechless over you and you, you're a ghost moving through this song you're a fiction, you're a lie and I can't help myself but trying to invent you and say: why can't there be uncertainty in love you know why is there only uncertainty in words "it's time to mix things up", they say and I want to believe them but then again, they come from me and not from you no not from you not from you they don't come from you so then let's have another long island ice tea with two straws this time then our money's gone and I didn't feel so small and useless in quite an amount of time and you just keep on smiling that's so fucking wonderful and I do the same yes I do the same uh I do the same and I don't find myself feeling quite as comfortable as I supposed to feel

They gave me something to play with it was a guitar it was a guitar They gave me something to play with it was my dick it was my own dick They gave me a history of color and it was white it was asshole white So don't you ever listen to white men playing guitars They will only comfort you They're in the service of capitalist money makers And bourgeois values They might tell you to burn down these houses and they might tell you to tear down those banks They'll romanticize theft and crime because they say that the rich are the problem yeah the rich are the problem (and always were) They'll exploit the topics of poverty and war and they'll exploit the topics of enviromental damage But they will only comfort you they will only comfort you just don't you imagine what you could do if you would go out now and forget about the beer walk out to the next ATM take all the money you've got take it out there, take it out and tell everybody around you that they should do the same so we could bring that system we could bring that system down WALK OUT TO THE NEXT ATM TAKE ALL THE MONEY YOU'VE GOT TAKE IT OUT THERE TAKE IT OUT THERE AND EVERYBODY AROUNG YOU TO DO EXACTLY THE SAME WE WILL BRING THAT SYSTEM WE WILL BRING THAT SYSTEM DOWN But don't you ever listen to white men playing guitars they are cynical assholes they are certainly cowards cuz nobody who'll ever appear on a stage will ever be radical enough no they will not be radical enogh and nobody who'll ever make a film or write a book they will never be radical enough they will never be radical enough and nobody who'll ever put a work of art on display they will never be radical enough they will never be radical enough no they will never be they will never be re- they will never be red- they will never radical enough to take to take to take that system down tötö - tötö - tötö - tötö - to take, to take that system down So walk out, go out of this now why are you still listening now walk out to the next ATM take all the money you've got take it out there, take it out there and tell everybody around you that they should do the same so we could bring that system we could bring that system down WALK OUT TO THE NEXT ATM TAKE ALL THE MONEY FROM ALL THE BANK ACCOUNTS - ALL THE BANK ACCOUNTS AND SELL ALL YOUR STOCKS AND TELL YOUR FRIENDS TO DO THE SAME WE SHOULD BRING THAT SYSTEM WE SHOULD BRING THAT SYSTEM DOWN GO! OUT! TO THE NEXT ATM TAKE ALL THE MONEY YOU'VE GOT TAKE IT OUT THERE - TAKE IT OUT THERE AND EVERYBODY AROUNG YOU THAT THEY SHOULD DO THE SAME SO WE COULD BRING THAT SYSTEM SO WE COULD BRING THAT SYSTEM DOWN BUT DON'T LISTEN TO WHITE MEN WITH GUITARS THEY WILL ONLY COMFORT YOU AND THEY ARE CYNICAL ASSHOLES SO SLEEP WELL SLEEP THIGHT GOOD NIGHT GOOD NIGHT
