Summer Rain

World without a breeze
Heartbeat of the heat above the harbour
Lazy day lies dazed upon the shelf
Atomic lizards lick at the blaze of the light that is forever
No move in the solid skies
No gleaming metal out of the breathtaking blue

My golden circus girls all sailed away
The lion tamers are no longer due to play
Whoever breaks the seven seals and lets the angry angels free
I do not know
Just waiting here
For summer rain
For summer rain
Or anything else

Prophet hold your head up
Into a cluster of bees and listen
"Love of my life
Here is our honey
Yes, we can change the world, together"
And if we're still invited to walk in this party
I'd go for a saucerful of secrets or more
But the last thing I heard of was that GOD had left the lines
For a brand new universe
HE was supposed to say

My golden circus girls all sailed away
The lion tamers are no longer due to play
Whoever breaks the seven seals and lets the angry angels free
I do not care just waiting over there
For summer rain
For summer rain

What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again
Cool rain

Sister Sun

Tell me is it really true
There's something goin' on
Outside
I just can feel it
I heard it on the radio
I'm not allowed to go
Outside
I can't believe it
There's a big hole in the sky
Where the radiation's breaking through
And we just sit and stare
Like the rabbit at the snake
There's so much we could do
But we gotta do it now
'cause it's gettin' pretty late
Better hurry now

We all need the sun
We need love and light for everyone
We need our atmosphere
To live in here
We could be so strong
We overthrow the government and stop
What's goin' wrong
We're fighting for the sun

It's really hard to understand
The change of sister sun
As if your sunny smile
Would turn into a deadly one
It's not a quality of life
To love inside a mighty trap
To have that ice-cold coke beyond the radiation gap
There should be more resistance
Against industrial trusts
And if there's no solution, there should be revolution
I wonder if we start in time, we're racing with the seconds
I wonder if we've got enough to talk to stupid politicians

We all need the sun...
Hold on to revolution... We're fighting for the sun.
