if you do nothing, you make no mistake
and all this worrying never ever pays
there’s no time to sit down and cry
there’s one rule that make things allright
never brake the rule of having fun..

never brake the rule of having fun (never break the rule of having fun)
never brake the rule of having fun (never break the rule of having fun)
never brake the rule of having fun (never break the rule of having fun)
never brake the rule of having fun (never break some rule)

you say you never make ends meet
you keep tellin’ me that life’s a bitch
you can struggle and fight to make it stay away
and you can treat it nice until it treats you ok
never brake the rule of having fun...

never brake the rule of having fun (never break the rule of having fun)
never brake the rule of having fun (never break the rule of having fun)
never brake the rule of having fun (never break the rule of having fun)
never brake the rule of having fun (never break some rule)

when i go down to hell i know what to do
this burning borse me to death is something new
a genius style looking ugly is over
a smile on your face that’s what it’s all about
never brake the rule of having fun...

never brake the rule of having fun (never break the rule of having fun)
never brake the rule of having fun (never break the rule of having fun)
never brake the rule of having fun (never break the rule of having fun)
never brake the rule of having fun (never break some rule)

the sun is red and i am blue
since the day you’ve told me we were through
i’m crying - i’m thinkin of you

i hear your voice i open up my eyes
there’s no one there and i realize
i was dreamin’ - i’’m thinking of you

you were the only girl, in the whole wide world
who could make my dreams come true
now i’m sitting and crying from midnight to noon
singing the blues to the sun and to the moon

one day the sun will give up shining
the moon will be fed up
whith i’m crying
but then i’ll still be thinkin’ of you

the sun is red and i am blue
since the day you’ve told me we were through
i’m crying - i’m thinkin of you

i hear your voice i open up my eyes
there’s no one there and i realize
i was dreamin’ - i’’m thinking of you

you were the only girl, in the whole wide world
who could make my dreams come true
now i’m sitting and crying from midnight to noon
singing the blues to the sun and to the moon

one day the sun will give up shining
the moon will be fed up
whith i’m crying
but then i’ll still be thinkin’ of you

pussycat is hanging round
you wouldn’t guess what she just found
a mouse mad for her delight
got what it takes for day and night

little mouse come play with me
if you don’t want i’ll set you free
i know just what you mice guys like
to dine with you is my delight

dinner for one, dinner for one
watch out little mouse the race is on
pussycat’s gonna have a ball with you
and after that there’ll be nothing left of you

the mouse is pleased and says ’in fact’
i didn’t no i could attract
a person of your class and style
so why not dine with you and smile

but don’t you hurt me i’m so small
pussy says ’no not at all’
be my guest i’ll be your cook
just tell me that you stay for good

dinner for one, dinner for one
watch out little mouse the race is on
pussycat’s gonna have a ball with you
and after that there’ll be nothing left of you

the influence of your host
will make you what I please the most
you’re allright the way you are
but I will make you see the stars

pussy has an appetite
that sure must be satisfied
the mouse was happy ’bout these news
so they started for a honeymoon

dinner for one, dinner for one
watch out little mouse the race is on
pussycat’s gonna have a ball with you
and after that there’ll be nothing left of you

every year it is the same
i feel like i must go insane
when it’s her birthday she is blue
i remember soccer games
and i never miss a train
but for her birthdays there’s no room left in my brain

oh, i love her so
friday it’s her birthday

i got, i got no idea

now in bed
she’s so sad
oh, i love her so
friday it’s her birthday

birthday’s drawing near
i got, i got no idea

we’re so close when we’re in bed
we’re just one mind in two heads
her name is signed across my heart
when i’m wandering around
i wish we’d never be apart

now in bed
she’s so sad
oh, i love her so
friday it’s her birthday
it’s already thursday
birthday’s drawing near
i got, i got no idea

now in bed

no risk, no fun
is what my mother said

out to live my life on a saturday
beautys everywhere and one who stared at me
we ended up lying in the springtime grass (springtime grass)
safer sex is hip, rubbers what i miss but

no risk, no fun
is what my mother said

no risk, no fun
is what my mother said

i love snowboarding in the danger zones
take a chance stagediving at the Kelly Family
i ride a train, skanking on the top (on the top)
do the bungie jumping without a rubberband

no risk, no fun
is what my mother said

no risk, no fun
is what my mother said

no risk, no fun
is what my mother said

no risk, no fun

i cross the street during rush hour
strangers talk to me and i just follow
life is much to boring, mum told me all the time
now she died while doing ultimate fighting

no risk, no fun
is what my mother said

no risk, no fun
is what my mother said

no risk, no fun
is what my mother said

no risk, no risk, no risk, no risk, no risk, no risk, no fun
no risk, no risk, no risk, no risk, no risk, no risk, no fun

1, 2, 3 and 4 - i thought you’d be knocking on my door
5 and 6 - i thought it was one of your tricks
7, 8, 9 and 10 - i thought you’d coming back again
11, 12, 13 - where’s my baby
has anybody seen...

my baby? she’s been gone for a fortnight
my baby? has been gone for a fortnight
now i’m sitting here, staring at the door in the twillight

my bed is much to big
every morning i’m so sick
i grap beside me - right in the ashtray
has anybody seen...

my baby? she’s been gone for a fortnight
my baby? has been gone for a fortnight
now i’m sitting here, staring at the door in the twillight

my baby? has been gone for a fortnight
my baby has been gone for a fortnight
wrong word, wrong time, wrong place, wrong night

i hear voices at night
my neighbour’s making love to his wife
i ring on his door and ask him: where’s my baby?
mister, have you seen...

my baby? she’s been gone for a fortnight
my baby? has been gone for a fortnight
now i’m sitting here, staring at the door in the twillight

my baby has been gone for a fortnight
my baby has been gone for a fortnight
wrong word, wrong time, wrong place, wrong night

my baby has been gone for a fortnight
my baby has been gone for a fortnight
now i’m sitting here, staring at the door in the twillight

my baby has been gone for a fortnight
my baby has been gone for a fortnight
now i’m sitting here, staring at the door in the twillight

my baby has been gone for a fortnight
my baby has been gone for a fortnight
wrong word, wrong time, wrong place, wrong night

i never cared about, whether my snoring was too loud
i never sat down to piss, i never cared if you missed
birthday greetings every other year

how was i to know, that you wanted me to go
now i pack all my things and take back all your rings and go
where memories keep me warm

when the fish are jumping it ain’t got that something
no it’s never gonna be the same
grasshoppers, bees they don’t know my desease
they ignore me it’s a crying shame

when the fish are jumping it ain’t got that something
no it’s never gonna be the same
grasshoppers, bees they don’t know my desease
they ignore me it’s a crying shame

we got really close, until i broke your mothers nose
when i fell down that ledder, i was drunk that don’t matter
showin’ your father my pile of playboy zines

how was i to know, that you wanted me to go
now i pack all my things and take back all your rings and go
where memories keep me warm

when the fish are jumping it ain’t got that something
no it’s never gonna be the same
grasshoppers, bees they don’t know my desease
they ignore me it’s a crying shame

when the fish are jumping it ain’t got that something
no it’s never gonna be the same
grasshoppers, bees they don’t know my desease
they ignore me it’s a crying shame

asskicked and fooled
and severly schooled
that’s how you’d find me
if you’d bother to see me again

how was i to know, that you wanted me to go
now i pack all my things and take back all your rings and go
where memories keep me warm

when the fish are jumping it ain’t got that something

early in the morning you call me
cause you can’t wait until the sun goes down
you said you need some kissin’ and some sweet curressing
why can’t i be around?

but late at night and when the time is right
you don’t know if i’m your man or not
cause i’m willin’ and able
and you dance on the table of my favourite pub

do you, don’t you?
do you, don’t you?
want me to be with you tonight?
is it yes or no?
shall i stay or shall i go?

do you, don’t you?
do you, don’t you?
want me baby, tell me eye to eye
does it depend on your mood
after five or ten glasses of wine?

you come to see my on my job
you say you need some love right now
but i’ve got to keep working and my back is hurting
and there’s nowhere we could go

but when saturday come and i’m ready to run
you don’t know my number anymore
cause your best friend called
and you’ve gone for a ride to the shore

do you, don’t you?
do you, don’t you?
want me to be with you tonight?
is it yes or no?
shall i stay or shall i go?

do you, don’t you?
do you, don’t you?
want me baby, tell me eye to eye
does it depend on your mood
after five or ten glasses of wine?

does it depend on your mood
after five or ten glasses of wine?

some people just sit around
till they weigh 500 pounds
i’ve get a serious job
i can’t take one day off

i never had the idea
to spread chaos and fear
i’m much to busy for that
i got no time to get mad

maybe life is boring
in some corners of the world
so come on, spice up your life
rip up your neighbours with a knife

don’t call me nuts,
don’t call me crazy
i’ve got a little bit of skanking to do
i’m not to blame if you’re to lazy
if you won’t do it, i won’t do it for you

don’t call me nuts, don’t call me crazy
i’ve got a little bit of skanking to do
i’m not to blame if you’re to lazy
if you won’t do it, i won’t do it for you

some people stand on the street
till someone tells them some shit
i’ve got no time to listen
if mr. big shit appears, i’ll be missin’

and if you ask me to say:
"please, stay out of my way"
with the sick ideas that result
of fantasies, you can’t call adult

maybe life is boring
in some corners of the world
so come on, spice up your life
rip up your neighbours with a knife

don’t call me nuts, don’t call me crazy
i’ve got a little bit of skanking to do
i’m not to blame if you’re to lazy
if you won’t do it, i won’t do it for you

don’t call me nuts, don’t call me crazy
i’ve got a little bit of skanking to do
i’m not to blame if you’re to lazy
if you won’t do it, i won’t do it for you

my definition of humour
is not to spread any rumours
until people get mad
you say: i never meant that

some people call me a fool
i don’t get upset, i stay cool
i’m not much into tanks
i ride my scooter and skank

maybe life is boring
in some corners of the world
so come on, spice up your life
rip up your neighbours with a knife

don’t call me nuts, don’t call me crazy
i’ve got a little bit of skanking to do
i’m not to blame if you’re to lazy
if you won’t do it, i won’t do it for you

don’t call me nuts, don’t call me crazy
i’ve got a little bit of skanking to do
i’m not to blame if you’re to lazy
if you won’t do it, i won’t do it for you

don’t call me nuts, don’t call me crazy
i’ve got a little bit of skanking to do
i’m not to blame if you’re to lazy
if you won’t do it, i won’t do it for you

don’t call me nuts, don’t call me crazy

hey bartender
gimme a drink, i wanna drop my brain
hey bartender
i need a little something to forget my pain

my woman kicked me out just the other day
now i’m flat broke, i got no place to stay
saw me on sign, promised, beer and booze
i went inside a bar to forget all my pain and all my blues

hey bartender
another beer, i wanna drop my brain
hey bartender
i need someone to forget my pain

my doctor told me just the other day:
"is this your liver or a sort of gelee?"
that’s why i’ve got this steady burning in my guts
whether i stop drinking or not, one day, that’s for sure, i get nuts

the old fat lady on my left is looking better every gin
but she offers nothing to catch my dream
i laughed out loud and sing...

hey bartender
gimme anything to forget my life
hey bartender
looks like hell and cuts like a knife

the old fat lady on my left is looking better every gin
but she offers nothing to catch my dream
i laughed out loud and sing...

hey bartender
hey bartender
long island ice tea around with gasoline
hey bartender
promise not to keep, don’t you look so mean

hey bartender...

little bit of licking at my hips
rumbling in bed, nipple my toes
drinking champagne out of your shoes

hey girl, white beauty
hey, hey, hey, hey beauty,
look at me girl, look at my face
let’s get out to another place

wanna be your first call - take me to the dancehall
