HURRICANE BAR (2004)

CUT THE ROPE

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

Bad boy Jimmy says where it’s at?
Down the hallway of kids playing flipper with the Jax
And the tax for the trench coat I bought
Measures up for the fines that we paid today
And for those who couldn’t run away
Well they got beaten up and thrown in jail

And we never cut the hope
‘Cause we never cut the rope

Here’s your money for all that I’ve done
E’s and lizards broken pistols and the promise about the sun
Get it on! All this brag about us
Measures up for the shit that we wrote today
And for those who couldn’t get away
Well they got beaten up and thrown in jail

And we never cut the hope
‘Cause we never cut the rope

No the bastard’s on their way
They have been reading too much crappy but then again
I ain’t that lucky bloke they’ve read about
I am a lone star, cut it again...

Bad boy Jimmy says how do you do?
Down the hallway of kids playing poker with the fools
And they loose every dime they’ve got
But it’s good for us ‘cause we got paid today
And the brothers that couldn’t get away
Well they got beaten up and thrown in jail

And we never cut the hope
‘Cause we never cut the rope…

GOD KNOWS

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

Well I turned left just like you told me to
I get excited by the moves you do
I’m on a mission and I’m gonna get away
Well I saw her standing all colored in red
I felt the blues just by the things she said
I want my mission so I can escape today

God knows - I ain’t sleeping but I want my line
God knows - I ain’t happy so I want it bad tonight
Oh brother can you help me out
God knows - I’ve got nothing so accept my time
God knows - it ain’t easy to behave in this spotlight
Oh brother can you help me out…

Well I turned the page from number three to four
You had nothing on you by my bedroom door
You had your mission now I’m gonna get away
When this is over and our souls are saved
When I am buried when I’ve got my own cave
I’ve done my mission so I won’t be here today

God knows - I ain’t sleeping…

I turned right just like I thought you would
I got excited like you said I would
I’m on a mission and I’m getting blown away
Well I saw her standing all colored in red
I felt the blues just by the things she said
I want my mission so I can escape today

God knows - I ain’t sleeping…

CLEAN TOWN

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

You wanna worship its feelings 
The one who’s squeezing the shame from every man
And if mama says it’s dinner time 
If she ruins your love, run away 


So you live in a prison 
So you’re wasting your life 
On a system you never will understand 
Are you the one I dreamed of - man!

Clean town if you want to get away
You pack your cases and you hope for a better day
Mama’s alright she said she didn’t want your love
Clean town if you want to get away
You pack your cases and you hope for a better day
Joni’s alright she said she didn’t want your love

Won’t you walk down the main street
Take the bridge over never ending rails
And even if you’re falling down That’s
an open door to the outside world

So you live in a bubble…

Clean town if you want to get away…

You can drive to the east coast
Disappear for a while 
Put the band-echo on, then we’ll give him a ride
Are you the one I dreamed of - man!

Clean town if you want to get away…

Won’t you get away…

DOWN IN THE PAST

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

Well I don’t wanna hang around with you
I’ve got my motor baby and I’m gonna see you through
You think I wanna be alone with you
It doesn’t matter baby cause you’re overreacted too

But since you’re down there
Where will I just be 
I’m getting fine girl, dressing up for stormy weather

So touch me down in the past where my mother will last
And it’s true that I’m in for a punch and a blast
Yeah down in the past where my mother will last
And she will make sure that you remember

Well I don’t wanna slide away with you
I’ve got ten little soldiers pointing at you
Honey you just left me for a new one
It doesn’t matter baby cause your hair is ugly too
 

But since you’re down there, where will I just be
I’m getting fine girl, dressing up for stormy weather
 

So touch me downin the past…


Well I don’t wanna hang around with you
I’ve got my motor baby and I’m gonna see you through
You think I wanna be alone with you
It doesn’t matter baby cause you’re overreacted too

So touch me down in the past…

That you remember… Come on…

YOU CAN´T STEAL MY LOVE

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

I was walking down the street 
With my chains tied up to my feet 
I leaned instead of jiggie with the sidewalk
Now this street tells the same old boring tale
That has failed in so many ways of life
To trust its stories you’ve got to be dull as them

And all the love I’ve got in here you’ve just killed
You peasants didn’t even care
The love I had in store you raped for more 
And all the dreams I had in here you’ve just stolen
You peasants didn’t even care 
But the dreams I had for her you cannot touch, my golden hand 
‘Cause it’s guarded by your promises

I met her in a crowded room
Where the bookshelves help you and knowledge takes your hand
I watched her beauty from an armchair
I said “Hey girl have you seen that film
With those kids in New York in the eighties - oh, you have
Well, can I watch it with you anyway”

And all the love I’ve got in here…

Congratulation Mr. Major 
You savior, betrayer, you stinking master of trusts
How does it feel to ride all those horses
You cannot touch our hearts when we’re in bloom
I assume that we’ll win over the heads again
We conceal none, you’ll feel none
That’s what I promise

And all the love we’ve got in store, you can’t kill
You peasants! We won it all
And the love I have for her you cannot touch, my golden hand
‘Cause it’s guarded by your filthy promises
And all the love I’ve got in here…

Honey I love you, like the summer falls and the winter crawls
You’re above and beyond me…

ADDED FAMILY

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

There’s a town I know where all who enter mutter
And the head has bought a crown that doesn’t fit
So when coffeeshops and supermarkets burn down I know
They have only the sun for witness and believer
That’s a shame 
‘Cause the starshave closed their eyes so they won’t

See Jim light his management 
And watch Dan lose his tournament 
And poor Dolores’ hardcore stars 
They tried to rule but ran to far 
And Jimmy fucked the glam for fun 
As he screwed his chicks he’s done  
And all you dandies thought you won  
Now look who’s made it again 

There are bootlegs being released but nothing happens
There are father figures wearing shirts of you
And the church of Sweden loves your dirty makeup
‘Cause your dyed hair makes reflections in their souls
It’s a sin 
Now my team has closed their eyes so they won’t

See Jim light his management 
And watch Dan lose his tournament 
And poor Dolores’ hardcore stars 
They tried to rule but ran to far
And cocaine snorting she-male-bands 
No lust in you stands a chance  
To the killer-seeds we spread 

Now open your mouth if you dare

ANNIE´S ANGLE

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

I was a stoned drunk silhouette of my past
I lost my nerves when he took me on
He was this high-healed smooth talking middleclass bastard
Who tried to stab me for where I was from
And though his words was covered in yesterday´s mud
The boys around him laughed his way
But on the parking lot where I was born
He didn’t come to play
No he didn’t dare to stay

You think you’re better than us 
You think you’re better than who 
You think you’re better than Annie’s angle 
You think you’re down with the people who laugh when you frown
And then move from ground to ground
You think you’re better than us
You think you’re better than who
You think you’re talking to Annie’s angle
You think you’re down with the people who laugh when you frown
And then move from ground to ground

Such a pit no one’s hurt from your punch
Must be a drag to look so debased
On the other side you’ve still got your kids to die for
So why take it all out on me 
That angry look doesn’t suite your face
You’ve got your medals in a box 
And on the telly there’s this leader saying –
Blame it on the boss 
You’ve got to blame it on the boss 

You think you’re better…

IF I LEAVE YOU

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

Burning your fiddle that’s an easy job
If you set the twilight reeling 
I’ve got 15 cents is that alright with you 
No you didn’t want that, bad 

And your dad is rich but your brother’s poor 
And your children sing come on, come on 
Join my circle now make me a man
But alwaysremember this

If I leave you (and I think I’m gonna leave you soon) 
At the wrong time (don’t think that I will come back soon) 
If I leave you (and I think I’m gonna leave you soon) 
At the wrong time (don’t think that I will come back)

Driving your car at Baker Street 
It’s a sin to go on uppers 
You’ve got a new TV and a heart of gold 
But you’re not allowed to smile

And your dad is rich...

If I leave you (and I think I’m gonna leave you soon) 
At the wrong time (don’t think that I will come back soon) 
If I leave you (and I think I’m gonna leave you soon) 
At the wrong time (don’t think that I will come back, come back to you)
If I leave you (and I think I’m gonna leave you soon)
At the wrong time (I’ve got nothing left to come back to)
If I leave you (and Ithink I’m gonna leave you soon)
At the wrong time (I’ve got nothing left to  come back to)
If I leave you (I don’t wanna be a part of you)
If I leave you (no, I don’t wanna be a part of you) 
If I leave you (I don’t wanna be a part of you)
Your Mama will die at the wrong time

RINGING BELLS

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

Stick around your neck and see what it can bring
Lonely stands the butcher on the ground
Little angel fly, fly among the stars
Jupiter will comfort you with love

So who are you gonna follow 
Are you going out somewhere 
Can it be the new thing money enough 
Where’s that hat you loved once 
Let us spoil it for a day 
Bring ‘em in she said just for a day 
Just for a day

On the way to you between busy moon 
Crash beneath a window left in bloom 
The days are few my friend and winter comes again 
Clap, clap and the boy is to lose 

So who are you gonna follow…

Bring ‘em in she said I said
Just bring ‘em in she said

Ringing bells in Saxton and Oakland bringing you home…

THIS DREAM IS OVER

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

Baby, why’d you leave me on the airport 
With my fingers put together 
While I was praying for your lover 
I wasn’t keen on love at the moment 
I didn’t even like your modesty hairstyle 
But then I froze when you left me for another

Don’t tell me this dream is over 
And don’t stop telling me your love 
Don’t tell me this dream is over 
And don’t stop burning my eyes my bird of blue

Well I waited on the corner of your street 
Cause you’re a street cat and I’m a mad dog 
And this night is ours whether you want it or you don’t 
Well I picked you flowers and wrote you a poem 
About a guy who owned the world but no women 
Maybe you’ll see, maybe someday that I might end you 
I’ll do you ill

Don’t tell me this dream is over...

I can’t live without you breath by my past, babe 
I can’t breathe without your life by my future 
I can’t see clear without your teardrops in my eyes

Don’t tell me this dream is over... 
Don’t tell me this dream is over 
Please don’t tell me this dream is over now

 
 
 

WHITE WALL

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

Yellow burning thing, it´s a dirty sin I know 
I´m on the pavement of my own mind, it´s silly 
Silly as the weather in June, March or December 
Silly as a man can be, and I´m down, yes I´m down

And I sang my la la teacher my la la teacher for you (I´m coming on the window) 
My la la teacher my la la teacher for you (I´m coming on the window again) 
And I watched my little baby from the seaside

Do you remember, the days when we were young 
All tied up by a teacher´s hand 
I was too shy and they said you´re too dry but I didn´t notice 
Flowers were hot in the cold winter night and so was I, yeah so was I

And I sang my la la teacher, my la la teacher for you (I´m coming on the window) 
My la la teacher, my la la teacher for you (I´m coming on the window again) 
And I watched my little baby from the seaside 
Yeah I watched my little baby from the seaside 
I watched my baby from the seaside

Though it´s been far away I´m gonna help you out 
Though it´s been far away I´m gonna help you out 
Though it´s been far away yes it´s been far away

And I sang my La la teacher, my la la teacher for you....

I watched my little baby from the seaside..

ALL MY SENSES

 Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

Pull the trigger, breakdown in a love affair
When I said I didn’t care, you started searching for tomorrow
Pull the trigger, my girl you’re running all alone
I said I was back home, but I’m far away

And there ain’t no point in the words I write
There ain’t no way to know me
But it sure felt right when I saw your eyes
But now they feel like, oh yeah they feel like Mondays

And all my senses seem to shine through the day
Seem to shine through the day, honey that’s okay
Yes all my senses seem to shine in the night
Seem to shine in the night, honey that’s alright

In your heart girl, I see a jealous butterfly
You wanted me high, love, but I’m sober still
In your heart girl, there’s nothing left but misery
Come dance while I’m getting free, I’m gonna lie again

Cause there ain’t no point in the words I write
There ain’t no way to get me
But I sure was high when I saw your smile
But now you´re always, oh yes you’re always gone girl 

And all my senses seem to shine through the day… 

And all my senses seem to be in this song
Thinking all day long, honey what went wrong
Tell me what went wrong 
Tell me what went wrong

 

 

KINGDOM AND GLORY

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

It feels like I´m water 
What do you mean son? 
It feels like I´m crying flesh 
It looks like tears have dropped on Messiah 
And all of the flood can fit into your screen 
It must be the soil I was using 
To stop ghosts from feeding my brain 
Lost in the woods where my generation grows 
And where they write

That every kid owns every house 
Well it´s gonna be different now that I´m gone 
And the tilted bodyguards took your wife and your dog 
Life is better now when you own every tree on every yard 
Well it´s gonna be different now that I´m gone 
To shoot some aliens for kingdom and glory 
For welfare and for life itself

Take me away son, wash all the years son 
Away with the tears of my youth 
Today I´m sober, today I´m clean 
Today I feel like I´m stuck in between

It must be the soil you were using... 
That every kid owns every house... 
Birthdays are your days 
The first days of your days 
We´re gonna be having some fun 
That every kid owns every house.. 
That every kid owns every house..

NEXT TO BE LOWERED

Dixgård/Norén © 2004 EMI Music Publishing

He went twenty thousand light-years from home 
And agreed he’ll be the next to be lowered 
And though he knew that life ain’t just a good start 
The advance did break him 
Filling textures on some tear-weathered note 
And on purpose he just spelled them all wrong 
And though he knew that life ain’t just a good start 
He didn’t even count with

The wild must be drawn into paper at once 
And if you got money then share it too 
The race will begin when it’s finished of course 
And if there’s some money then share it too 
And if there’s some money then share it too

You’re the oldest star ever to fall 
Yet you didn’t you have failed to be sold 
And though you know that life ain’t just a good start

The wild must be drawn into paper at once                                                                  

And if you got money then share it too                                                                         

The race will begin when it’s finished of course 

And if there’s some money then share it too 
And if there’s some money then share it too
