Homerun Lyrics


-----------------------HOME------------------------


I'll Be There
*Patricia, Paddy and Maite*


Should the sky just turn to black
and all birds die and fall,
when the ghosts go marching down the streets,
marching through your walls...

...I'll be there for you, with you, my friend.
I'll be there for you, with you, my friend.
Hear my cry, hear my cry

Should a flower be stoned to death
and love is not around,
when you're hungered and your tongue is dry
but your bread is filled with worms...

...I'll be there for you, with you, my friend.
I'll be there for you, with you, my friend.
Hear my cry, hear my cry,
hear my cry, hear my cry

Should the stars decide not to shine
and the world is cold as ice,
when babies only cry...

...I'll be there for you, with you, my friend.
I'll be there for you, with you, my friend.
I'll be there for you, with you, my friends.
Hear my cry, hear my cry,
hear my cry, hear my cry



Walking
*Angelo*


I was walking one way,
was walking the other day,
I was walking, I was walking
but I was walkin' the wrong way.
I was talking one way, bla bla bla,
just the other day,
I was talking, I was talking
but I was talkin' the wrong way.

Try to watch out what you do in life,
try not to hurt anybody,
try to watch out what you do in life,
for things, they can get pretty muddy,
for things, they can get pretty muddy.

Oh, I was thinking one way
just the other day,
I was thinking, I was thinking
but I was thinkin' the wrong way.
I was singing one way,
was singing all day,
I was singing, I was singing
but I was singin' the wrong way.

Try to watch out what you do in life,
try not to hurt anybody,
try to watch out what you do in life,
for things, they can get pretty muddy,
for things, they can get pretty muddy.

Try to watch out what you do in life,
try not to hurt anybody,
try to watch out what you do in life,
for things, they can get pretty muddy.

Try to watch out what you do in life,
try not to hurt anybody,
try to watch out what you do in life,
for things, they can get pretty muddy,
for things, they can get pretty muddy.
Oh oh oh oh, things, they can get pretty muddy.



Strange World
*Patricia*


Flowers and lights are taking my feet off the ground
and I'm flying speeds completely unknown to man,
no one can help me once I'm off to dreaming time,
I've entered that world and I'm on my own and I feel it alright

But it's a strange world, strange world that I live in,
it's a strange, strange world at night

Mama Mary, what you got cooking for me this time?
I swear I saw the devil running across the room last night.
Doctors and dioxine ain't gonna medicate me,
no, darling, in your arms I'll be fine with a cup of tea.

It's a strange world; strange world that I live in,
it's a strange, strange world at night

Well, if I'm a paranoia schizophrenic being,
what about that monkey talking nonsense on TV?

It's a strange world, strange world that I live in,
it's a strange, strange world at night



What If Love
*Maite and Paddy*


It's easy when you're sorry and you're lonely

I knew a girl that, spied on her boyfriend
in case he might miss and fall, he just might miss and fall.
She said: "It's not that I don't trust him,
I've just got to be sure, I've just got to be sure."
I know this kid that signed himself into a gym;
his pals keep nagging him about his chicken chest.
"Well, you'll never get a girl that way;
you've got to pump up."

What if love isn't only about,
what if love isn't only about two people involved with themselves, honey?
What if love isn't only about,
what if love isn't only about two people involved with themselves, honey?

Tom goes to law school, his father wants him to.
"You've got to make me proud, son, you've got to fill me in,
you've got to, you've got to live the life I've never lived."
Julie's got a baby, now no one invites her to party,
kids are too inconvenient these days.
Julie don't care, she don't miss anything.

'cause if love isn't only about,
what if love isn't only about two people involved with themselves, honey?

What if love isn't only about,
what if love isn't only about two people involved with themselves, honey?

Row, row, row down the river,
row, row, row down the road,
row, row, row down the river,
row, row, row down the road,
row, row, row down the river,
row, row, row down the road…



Don't Always Want
*Angelo*


Nowadays people want more, more, but so do I.
My brother told me once: "You always want what you DON'T have,
but take a look at all the things you DO have!"
So the reason why I wrote this song was to express to you what I think is wrong.
I'd like to be just a little taller,
I'd like to be just a little prettier,
I'd like to be just a little stronger, but hey, whatever

Don't always want what you don't have
but be grateful for what you have.
Don't always want what you don't have
but be grateful for what you have.

Well, you can call me the consuminator 'cause I never stop
feeding myself with all these obstacles until I drop.
I want a house and fat car, my own sauna and a pool,
have a yacht, my own plane and finely be cool,
I'm like that kid screaming to his mama: "I want that toy"
'cause my filled room at home no longer gives me that joy
and I would not recommend myself as someone to employ 'cause I want it all.

Don't always want what you don't have
but be grateful for what you have.
Don't always want what you don't have
but be grateful for what you have.
Don't always want what you don't have
but be grateful for what you have.
Don't always want what you don't have
but be grateful for what you have.

I want the world just to leave me alone,
wanna move to New York and learn the saxophone,
I wanna jam with Miles Davis and John Coltran,
I've got so many wishes, I think I'm going insane
but what the hell am I supposed to do
'cause I'm trying real hard to undo all the emptiness inside me
which is why I want so much

Don't always want what you don't have
but be grateful for what you have.
Don't always want what you don't have
but be grateful for what you have.



Intro Carry My Soul: Mother Theresa

God speaks in the silence of the heart
and we listen…



Carry My Soul
*Jimmy and Paddy*


Nena, Nena, Nena Tereze
Nena, Nena, Nena Tereze…

Yeah, hey, ho, my name is Jimmy beep, beereeb, beeb, beeb
whatever you want to call me.
You know like the birds in the air, that's how I wanna be free, free, free,
I've been trying all my life to break free,
it's like a big bad fight that never ends, you know what I'm saying?
First I was a soldier, then I was a rebel, then a runaway
and I've been running ever since but it's like everything is in my way,
everything, even my head, my body

A drop in the sea caused a flood quenching man's drought,
you did it to me, to my thirsting heart with your tender touch.

Nena, Nena, Nena Tereze
Nena, Nena, Nena Tereze…

Yeah, like a drop in the sea, that's how I feel sometimes,
like I'm stuck in the traffic or something.
But I wasn't gonna let that be, I made a plan, I worked hard,
I had a TV, I had a car, I had a house,
I was a man with a job, you know.
You know, I had all those things, but I broke down one day
and I lost it all, I came rolling down that mountain

A pencil in the hands of almighty love where the ink won't dry
is writing the names of poor men dying in his angel's arms

Nena, Nena, Nena Tereze
Nena, Nena, Nena Tereze…

Yeah, I lost it all and like magic I was free.
When no one spoke to me, when no one cared for me,
that's the day I started singing this song and this is how it goes:

Carry my soul, carry my soul,
carry my soul, carry my soul,
carry my soul, carry my soul,
carry my soul, carry my soul…

Nena, Nena, Nena Tereze
Nena, Nena, Nena Tereze…

Yeah, that's the song of the free.
I don't want to fight no more; I feel we were made for something big…
My thirsting heart …
Just let the wind blow…
Blessed are the poor, oh, almighty love…
Yeah, let the wind blow…



Break The Walls
*Maite and Angelo*


Didn't wanna seduce you, but I did,
didn't wanna abuse you, but I did,
didn't wanna accuse you,
there's a dark side of me that doesn't wanna
Don't wanna mislead you, but I do,
don't wanna reject you, but I do,
don't wanna crush you,
there's a dark side of me, that doesn't wanna,
there's a dark side of me, so

Break the walls with your hands,
don't you know that you can,
I'll be running to you.
Break the walls with your hands,
yes I know that you can,
I'll be running to you.

Don't wanna believe you, but I do,
don't wanna need you, but I do,
don't wanna hold you
'cause there's a dark side of me that doesn't wanna,
it's a monster you see, so

Break the walls with your hands,
don't you know that you can,
I'll be running to you.
Break the walls with your hands,
yes I know that you can,
I'll be running to you.
So run, run, run, run, run,
yeah, yeah,

everybody dies, everybody cries
and that's alright, that's when we all rise
oh, oh, oh…

So break the walls with your hands,
don't you know that you can,
I'll be running to you.
Break the walls with your hands,
yes I know that you can,
I'll be running to you.

Run, run, run, run, run,
oh, I'm running to you,
run, run, run, run, run,
I'll be running, be running, be running,
I'll be running, still running to you
'cause Baby, I'm running…
I'm running…



Burning Fire
*Jimmy*


My heart is true but the road is long
and I'm a fool 'cause I do you wrong.
It's hard today to stay in line
but I'll try it all, anything you want.
You got it all, you go it all today,
you got my soul

Burning fire, burning fire, burning fire

I lost it all, so you can find it,
it's hard to breathe in this world today.
But if mercy is the key to loving
you got it all, you got it all today,
you got my soul.

Burning fire, burning fire, burning fire

So love it hides behind your silence
and yesterday is gone today,
so I will love you now like if nothing happened.



Don't Be So Unhappy
*Paddy*

 
Sadly, that's how you're feeling,
sorry, my heart was deceiving.
I want you to know our time had its reason.

Long before my love was gone
I felt that this would go wrong.

Don't be so unhappy, your life has just begun,
don't be so unhappy, there are wars that can't be won.

Daddy gave you a hard time,
forgive me for being so dumb, deaf'n'blind.
Broke, hurt, hate, habibi,
we can't erase, can't rewind.

Long before my love was gone
I felt that "us" would turn out wrong.

Don't be so unhappy, your life has just begun,
don't be so unhappy, there are wars that can't be won.
Don't be so unhappy, your life has just begun,
don't be so unhappy, there are wars that can't be won.

Long before my love was gone
I felt that things would go wrong.

Don't be so unhappy, your life has just begun,
don't be so unhappy, there are wars that can't be won.

Babylon
*Jimmy and Paddy* 


I'm the anger, yeah, that you got in your bone,
I'm the feeling, boy, you got when you're stoned,

Everybody Is Beautiful
*Paddy, Jimmy and Maite*


Everybody, everybody
Joe walks on the tip of his toes to hide his Pinocchio nose,
peeks into a window of a bar to watch them smoking cigars,
yeah, they're all smoking cigars.

Pam's got the teeth of a shark; she only smiles in the dark,
so she asked the mirror on the wall: "Am I the ugliest of all?
Am I the ugliest of all?"
And the mirror said: "Hey…

shala lala la la la lala,
shala lala la la la lala,
shala lala la la la lala,
everybody's beautiful"

Just like the beauty'n'beast most wanted dance with the least,
no need to judge or to blame 'cause we're all mentally insane,
yeah, we're all mentally insane.
But the mirror said: "Hey…

shala lala la la la lala,
shala lala la la la lala,
shala lala la la la lala,
everybody's beautiful"

Somebody get me some water,
somebody get me some water,
somebody get me some water
'cause I can sleep no further tonight…

And the mirror said: "Hey…
shala lala la la la lala,
shala lala la la la lala,
shala lala la la la lala,
everybody's beautiful"



Streets Of Love
*Jimmy*

Walk with style, take that smile, everybody's feeling happy,

Street Kid (Gucci shit)
*Patricia* 


Aaah, sugar baby, yeah
She thought she was the best thing around,
she thought she was the hottest chick in town.
So scared of getting wrinkles to fold
that pig was always digging for diamonds and gold.
She never noticed the girl in the corner,
she never noticed the girl standing there.

I'm a street kid, don't need that Gucci shit,
I'm a street kid, don't need that Gucci shit,
I'm a street kid, don't need that Gucci shit,
I'm a street kid, don't need that Gucci shit.

She thought she'd fill the rooms in her home,
she thought she had the hottest shoes in town.
But woke up and saw herself dying alone
and said: "Lord, vanity's made my soul go down, down, down".
She never noticed the girl in the corner,
she never noticed the girl standing there.

I'm a street kid, don't need that Gucci shit,
I'm a street kid, don't need that Gucci shit,
I'm a street kid, don't need that Gucci shit,
I'm a street kid, don't need those pretty dresses and all those things that I do need
She never noticed the girl in the corner,
she never noticed the girl standing there.

I'm a street kid, don't need that Gucci shit,
I'm a street kid, my Jesus, Moses and Peter and Paul,
I'm a street kid, don't need that,
I'm a street kid, don't need that Gucci shit,
I'm a street kid, deteriation of body and soul,
I'm a street kid, oh, I follow my heart and my soul,
I'm a street kid, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby,
I'm a street kid, oh, oh, oh uuh,
I'm a street kid, I'm a street kid,
I'm a street kid, I follow my heart and my soul,
I'm a street kid, all the sins I do
I love that Gucci shit…



Intro Blood: China Ketetsi

"My name is China Ketetsi
and and I was a child soldier
and I'm here in the West
like I'm just close my eyes and say I'm happy.
But it hurts, too, to share this freedom alone
while my friends are still there
told who to hate and who to love,
who to end and who to spare..."



Blood
* Jimmy* 


They drill them to the ground,
they take away their rights,
they're making martyrs out of little children.
Give a kid a gun, take away her Mum,
they teach them how to kill when they hunger.
Kill that man, kill that girl, kill anyone you want today.
Blood is on the ground, they're shooting all around,
they got an army bigger than D-day.

Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go,
blood, blood, blood everywhere we go,
blood, blood, blood everywhere we go.

We're living in a time where loving is so hard,
I can't even help my little brother,
but silence is a crime when someone needs your help,
GOD have mercy on me today.
War is money, war is power,
blood is the river of the century.
Leave them now, let them go,
set all the children free!

Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go,
blood, blood, blood everywhere we go,
blood, blood, blood everywhere we go.
This song is also dedicated to all the kids living in this society
who are being deprived of their basis rights,
the right to a peaceful home,
the right to an education,
the right to innocence,
the right to health and food,
to love and to be loved,
the right to a joyful youth.
And my heart goes out especially to my nephews

Blood, blood, blood everywhere we go,
blood, blood, blood everywhere we go,
blood, blood, blood everywhere we go.



I Wish The Very Best
*Angelo* 


You, you used to be a friend more like a brother to me,
you drifted off, you drifted off and flew away, but that's okay.
I'm sure we'll meet again some day, some day.

I wish the very best for you in life,
I hope you're happy with your wife.
I wish the very best for you in life,
I hope you're happy with your wife.

Forgive me now, forgive me for all the hurt I've done.
Forgive them all, forgive them for all the harm they've done.
Brothers that didn't get along had sons which friendship was so strong.
It drifted off; it drifted off and flew away.
A sad story doesn't have to have a sad end, until we meet again…

…I wish the very best for you in life,
I hope you're happy with your wife.
I wish the very best for you in life,
I hope you're happy with your wife.

Forgive me now, forgive me for all the hurt I've done.
Forgive them all, forgive them for all the harm they've done.

I wish the very best for you in life,
I hope you're happy with your wife.
I wish the very best for you in life,
I hope you're happy with your wife.


Flip A Coin
*Joey and Paddy*


I recall a friend of mine.
With a tear in my eye I stand here at the altar.
He's out, I'm left with a problem now,
I'm here on earth left with the pain.
Look what you've done, you should have called!

Flip a coin, flip a coin, flip a coin,
yeah, heads I win, tails you lose.
Flip a coin, flip a coin, flip a coin,
yeah, heads I win, tails you lose.

Sorry, I couldn't help,
take it back - sorry I didn't help.
Well f… you, you could have called.
What about us - what about me,
what about the years I spent pampering your ass,
running here, running there?
"Oh, I'm so great I'm so great, I'm fine, I'm fine",
you lied.
You promised to give your family a break from your blows,
look at the sad faces you've left behind now.
I let you down? No, you let ME down!
I got a family to feed, you got a little kid yourself,
you know what I mean?
You were supposed to stay;
no one gave you the right to take your life that way!

Flip a coin, flip a coin, flip a coin,
yeah, heads I win, tails you lose.
Flip a coin, flip a coin, flip a coin,
yeah, heads I win, tails you lose.

Halle halle halle halle halle halleluja

I feel hate, I feel pain, I feel cold, I feel ashamed.
Where's the father you should have been to your daughter?
Sad news, sad days, where are you now?
Talk to me, come on talk to me, I know you can hear me!
Why brother, why?

Flip a coin, flip a coin, flip a coin,
yeah, heads I win, tails you lose.
Flip a coin, flip a coin, flip a coin,
yeah, heads I win, tails you lose.

Halle halle halle halle halle halleluja

You could have gone a different way…



Edge Of Happiness
*Angelo*


I take one step forward but then I take two steps back,
what is it that, what is it that I lack?
I just can't get my head straight;
I just can't get my life straight.

One foot in heaven but I got one foot in hell,
Sometimes I just, I just can't tell.
I just can't get my head straight,
I just can't get my life straight.
This dark hole is so deep,
This dark hole is so deep

Oh oh uh ohuhoh, oh oh uh ohhhhohoh,
I feel like I'm on the edge, just about to fall down,
I feel like I'm on the edge,
the edge of happiness, the edge of happiness.

Do I need therapy or do I need a good kick in the ass?
Do I need prayer? I've got too many things to ask.
I just can't get my head straight,
I just can't get my head straight.
This dark hole is so deep,
this dark hole is so deep.

Oh oh uh ohuhoh, oh oh uh ohhhhohoh,
I feel like I'm on the edge, just about to fall down,
I feel like I'm on the edge,
the edge of happiness, the edge of happiness.
