TOTAL FOOTBALL
I used to think:
“with Rinus Michels by our side…
- I used to think -
we’ll give the sun a knowing wink”
I used to think:
“we’ll light the gloaming before we sink”
free, unique and collective, never seen before…
Forget the “Method”, the “4-2-4”, the “WM”…;
we showed the world the beauty and our swing.
‘Cause we were watching the sun,
watching the sun,
rapture and swoon…;
you may regret we finished oh so soon...
But this tarnished 70’s reverb
charms and beguiles even you
and it makes me proud and I love you,
when you ask me:
“play me total football”
It goes like this: the fourteen leads, the fullbacks rise,
the forwards come back,
the keeper will weep for his pain
We were watching the sun,
watching the sun,
rapture and swoon…;
you may regret we finished oh so soon...
But this tarnished 70’s reverb
charms and beguiles even you
and it makes me proud and I love you,
when you ask me:
“play me total football”

WHEN SILVIA DIES
Sat on the grave of my old band
a bunch of daisies in my hand
I brush the marble and I give her a shy smile and a song
She stands severe, she stands alone
she just texted “STAR SIGN" on her phone
she looks at me as I write "DONE"
And if a double-decker bus
fatally crashes in to us
if Silvia died, the world itself
would close its eyes
Did "Summer dress" cry at the funeral
did "Epic deeva" feel unwell,
did "Motorcity" get a tattoo with her name and a heart?
"When Silvia dies" went to a club, to see that punk rock band and drink,
she screwed that handsome waiter...
to whom will I sing when Silvia dies?
if Silvia died, the world itself
would rest its eyes

In my mind there is a maze
in my heart there is a place
of which i'm singing in my song
it's the place where I belong
Even when I'm feeling down
(meaning: down and down and down)
it's the only place in town
I want to stay
THE OLD LADY UPSTAIRS
