Etikett: Before & Afterwards

Lars sjunger och är medskyldig till text.

Under the nightsky, a thousand miles from here,
you kiss good-bye, from your eye falls a tear.
It’s a lack of reason – it’s the spring-season.
Your hormones are out of control.
I tell you that this girl is no good, because

she is public domain,
she will do it again.
You shouldn’t trust her a single moment.
She has a price for love.
You want to be above her.
She is public domain.

Safety-rules are broken all the time,
when you and her together commit the crime.
You think you don’t care for share-ware,
but deep inside you feel betrayed.
Behind her curtain you are certain she is not alone.

Lie on me! Lie on me again – rely on me!

She is public domain,
she will do it again,
but I don’t trust her a single moment.
She has a price for love.
I want to be above her too ’cause she’s public domain.

Can you compete?

Beat this! – Do you think you can compete with me?
Beat this! – mmm, your sweet defeat!

I’m eating your self-confidence
in a dusty corner of my mind.
I know you won’t see through me,
’cause to this, you are blind.
Don’t try to explain the pain you feel
 – the wheels are spinning too fast.
Prepare to care for a different party
for things you did in the past.

Offensive words conceal the fact,
that you are in command.
I’m searching for the things in life,
that I know you can stand.
A stab in your back, I track you down
 – no use to run away.
Get used to juice in the early morning
 – I am here to stay.

 Beat this beat!

Avslutas med superpampiga stråkar (1994).

Feel the calmness in movement!

Please lead me
into the secret spaces
of our senses,
colours melt logic collapse.

Follow me! – let’s dive into the ocean.
Follow me! – let’s fly over the fields.

Contrasts dim.
Contours are getting softer.
The world rotate
for my eyes. Control is gone.

Take my hand.
There are so much we don’t know.
Come let’s explore
fields of joy – oceans of tears.

Medkompositör Jonas Axelsson. Duett med Lena Wickström, som även putsade på texten. Utgiven på samlings-CD:n Electric sunset. Inspelad i Button-studion.

In the dance-hall: Stroboscope, red, blue, yellow lights.
The queen of the floor, will she be mine, just for tonight?

My pretty face and my body
dressed up in lace
bring animal instincts to your life.
Let them take over!
So come with me.

I want you near me, I want you to hear me
saying the words just for tonight.
We’ll break conventions of the fourth dimension
 – eternal love, just for tonight.

I, I keep my word, I never lie
for a short while.
Your total emotions will be mine.
I will be yours.
Trust me! It’ll be so fine just for tonight.

I am not concerned of who you are,
but I demand
that you make my wildest dreams come true.
I’ll be your guide, hiding nothing.

Just for tonight – come with me tonight! Tonight – forever. Kiss me, but don’t miss me tomorrow. I want you near me, I want you here. I want you to remove my fear.

Per Frumerie sjöng denna miljöaktivistiska låt.

Imagine the wastelands barren and black.
Our earth cannot stand it
 – the toxic attack. A fraction is killed
 every moment.

Where once there grew flowers is covered with dust.
The trust for mankind is broken.
The cooling-towers are left here to rust.
The crust is forever infected.

So look what you are doing before it’s too late.
Mind your steps for tomorrow!
I can’t say I’m better, I just contemplate,
but I feel some kind of sorrow.

Do something soon or I will escape
this raped and suffering planet.
The yellow moon is where I will shape
a better and personal future.
