The years have been pouring lately
In this happy little dreary life
Though hopes have never been so
likely
It seems to pass so fast since you're
my wife
We know it happens all the time
People drowned in existence
Or those who ain't got a dime
All things gathered to put some
distance
But still I..
I love the way you turn me on
Those tiny wrinkles of your own
Have never been so lovely oh!
You turn me on!
Our ways have slowly parted
Our thoughts and goals have changed
Some days we're living un-hearted
It's so easy for someone to be
misjudged
Yet no-one is really to blame
Let’s stick to the feelings we share
Think of the strength of our flame
Like in the shining of your hair
Cause still I
Still love the way you turn me on
Those tiny wrinkles of your own
have never been so lovely oh!
You (still) turn me on!
{Bridge}
Ah, Oh
Every morning (when) we wake up
I feel that I need you a lot
And even when we hurry up
I can’t help thinking (that) you are so
hot
Yeah still I..
I love the way you turn me on
Those tiny wrinkles of your own
Have never been so lovely oh!
You (still) turn me on!
I love the way you turn me on
Those tiny wrinkles of your own
Have never been so lovely oh!
You (still) turn me on!
I love the way you turn me on
Those tiny wrinkles of your own
Have never been so lovely oh!
You’ll always turn me on!

The Last Kind On Earth
04:04
|

What a strange feeling
To be the last kind on earth
Don’t feel like of the greatest
worth
But ain’t nothing we cannot
reverse
Everytime I’m passing by
All I see is a desert street
It makes me feel bittersweet
No kids playing outside
Neither a ball nor a bike
Just hear the rusty swing grind
And every time the same state of
mind
The drones circling in the sky
People hiding from the Spy
Some renegades are still at large
I‘ve been coming back for
decades
Still shocked by those barricades
They’re checking everyone’s
badge
And now there is no turning back
What a strange feeling
To be the last kind on earth
Don’t feel like of the greatest
worth
The world has been falling..
Apart and no-one’s giving birth
It feel’s like it’s being a curse
But ain’t nothing we cannot
reverse
Remember how it used to be
Back when we still believed we
were free
Working, driving, sleeping, buying
Children raised by several
screens
Parents fed up with the screams
Ignoring they’d be the first to
die...and
Yet we didn’t change anything
What a strange feeling
To be the last kind on earth
Don’t feel like of the greatest
worth
The world has been falling...
Apart and no-one’s giving birth
It feel’s like it’s being a curse
But ain’t nothing we cannot
reverse

Time
04:27

Time, I need time
To catch up on my life
Rest, I need rest,
‘Cause I’m not at my best
Everyday is a nightmare
Running everywhere
But still nobody cares
And the cycle goes on, on, on ,
on...
Time after time,
I’ve turned myself so lonely
Love, I need love
To feel how it’s like
‘Cause together is better
For little I know
Having someone to share with
Every bit of time
But the fact is I ain’t got much time
I’ve had enough of
That, flat, sad, plain and simple life
If only I could
Travel back to my early ...
[Chorus]
...Years
I’d take that other chance
I wouldn’t waste my time
I’d fly instead of walk
I’d laugh instead of cry
And I would kiss you just at once
Time, round the clock
Keeps ticking in my vein
My fate is under lock
I keep struggling in vain
Time leads us to nowhere
Yet leaves us behind
I won’t keep running much longer
Think I’m gonna give up
But the fact is I ain’t got much time
I’ve had enough of
That, flat, sad, plain and simple life
If only I could
Travel back to my early ...
...Years
I’d take that other chance
I wouldn’t waste my time
I’d fly instead of walk
I’d laugh instead of cry
And I would kiss you just at once

Seeds of Trouble
04:15
|

When I was around ten
I found myself speed racing
Against schoolmates
Always pushed the limits
Cause I could not stand loosing
Just not on a barrow
But I would end up second
So I just started cheating
To force my fate
It got into a rumble
And soon the story spread all
Around the borough
Wherever I go
I sow seeds of trouble
I’m perceived like a hobo
I’m chased like the devil
I found a job in Fargo
Garden for some widow
But wherever I go
I sow seeds of trouble
And wait ‘till they grow
Somewhere along the road
I met some girl so pretty
I couldn’t be wrong
She was only sixteen
So fun and always witty
We soon got along
We stole a car in Nashville
Drove along random roads
All night ’till the dawn
Woke up behind a straw bale
Thought I’d find her naked
Only she was gone
Wherever I go
I sow seeds of trouble
I’m perceived like a hobo
I’m chased like the devil
I lost my job in Fargo
Cause I’d robbed that old widow
Yeah wherever I go
I sow seeds of trouble
And wait ‘till they grow
Wait ‘till they grow
Wait ‘till they grow (to repeat..)
[Pont]
Wait ‘till they grow
My seeds of trouble

Indescribable
04:25

Her head on your shoulder
Always you’d hold her
The way that you feel about her
Those moments together
Playing like kids
Like time never happened in our
world
The things that you’ve told her
Never could blame her
You can’t keep her from becoming
older
She looks like her mother
Year after year
I can't get used to this idea
Oh
What you feel
is almost indescribable
What you feel
is beyond everything
[Harmonica solo]
The first time she’ll leave us
The void that she’ll leave us
It's time for her to live her own way
Whenever it gets colder
You’ll give her shelter
The home that she grew in will
always be hers
Oh
What you feel
is almost indescribable
What you feel
is beyond everything
Don't know who's the strongest
Surely the youngest
Have times changed for better
for a woman
For now she's your daughter
But one day or another
Hopefully she'll become a mother
Oh
She will feel
The almost indescribable
She will feel
Beyond everything

The Perfect Picture
04:14
|
|||
Something I’ve learned, frankly
speaking
Is how life can totally suck
No matter how hard you’re working
You won't be able to force your luck
Maybe you think that's worth the tryin’
I don't want to argue with you
But if you believe that life is charming
Well I'd say it's a naive view
So don't waste your time looking to
the future
Just live the great adventure
Don't always try to get the perfect
picture
Just let live your real nature
Wether you speak of wealth or loving
Nothing’s really worth it
They both will play with what you're
feeling
You ain't gonna do nothing about it
So don't waste your time looking to
the future
Just live the great adventure
Don't always try to get the perfect
picture
Just let live your real nature
[ Whistle]
Make your choices, don't think of what
you're leaving
Get rid of all your worries
Do what it takes, just live and stop
dreamin
There are just no boundaries
So don't waste your time looking to
the future
Just live the great adventure
Don't always try to get the perfect
picture
Just let live your real nature
There is no such place as paradise
Don’t try to make up for your sins
Forget the things that you may
jeopardize
Thrill is where it all begins
So don't waste your time looking to
the future
Just live the great adventure
Don't always try to get the perfect
picture
Just let live your real nature

Know Who You Are
04:19
|
|||
Don't you think it is awkward
To feel you don't belong in this world
Maybe you just took the wrong card
And you’re a looser in the end
You can’t keep looking backward
Like your past was a dreamworld
You still think of it so hard
But time you won’t ever suspend
When after all these years
You still don’t know who you are
I think it's time to make amends
For once think of those who care
I'm not talking about your friends
Only the people whose life you share
When after all these years
You still don’t know who you are
After all the things
That you’ve done wrong
And after all the people
You’ve done harm
Yeah after all those moments
That you’ve spend
Wondering about yourself
You still don’t know who you are
I won't stand it much longer
So now pull yourself together
You won't get any answer
Except destroy one another
When after all these years
You still don’t know who you are
When after all these years
You still don’t know who you are
After all the things
That you’ve done wrong
And after all the people
You’ve done harm
Yeah after all those moments
That you’ve spend
Wondering about yourself
You still don’t know who you are

Still So Young
03:37
|
|||
Well there must have been
A time a little better
When no-one had to fear
This show of terror
I see a brighter future
When I look in that mirror
Science and knowledge
May not lead to wisdom
But no true religion
Should keep us from freedom
They've gone over the edge
They’re not true believers
Who put that dark thoughts in
your head
You’re still so young
You should rather try and fall
asleep instead
Fierce adoration
Without meaning
Leads to destruction
Of every feeling
And every human
Would live for nothing
I knew you’d find out
Sooner or later
There is no doubt
This world’s not perfect
But all is about
Our love ever after
Let those thoughts out of your
head
You’re still so young
You should rather try and fall
asleep instead

The Fabulous Awkward Boys Toulouse, France
Always looking for an elegant folk song-writing, the Fabulous Awkward Boys are singular by the impregnation in their music of the numerous influences which nourish them since their meeting. Blues, country, brit-pop, or indie rock are recurrent in their albums, with an omnipresent perfume of Americana without one being able to really say where this music comes from..UK? US? It is Made in France. ... more
