Songtext zu Überlin

[Verse 1]
Hey now, take your pills and
Hey now, make your breakfast
Hey now, comb your hair and off to work
Crash land, no illusions
No collision, no intrusion
My imagination run away
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I know, I know, I know what I am chasing
Oh, I know, I know, I know that this is changing me
 
[Chorus]
I am flying on a star into a meteor tonight
I am flying on a star, star, star
I will make it through the day and then the day becomes the night
I will make it through the night
 
[Verse 2]
Hey now, take the U-Bahn
Five stops, change the station
Hey now, don't forget that change will save you
Hey now, count a thousand-million people
That's astounding
Chasing through the city with their stars on bright
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I know, I know, I know what I am chasing
Oh, I know, I know, I know that this is changing me
 
[Chorus]
I am flying on a star into a meteor tonight
I am flying on a star, star, star
I will make it through the day and then the day becomes the night
I will make it through the night
 
[Verse 3]
I don't mind repeating
I am not complete
I have never been the gifted type
Hey, man, tell me something
Are you off to somewhere?
Do you want to go with me tonight?
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I know, I know, I know that this is changing
We walk the streets, to feel the ground I'm chasing: ÜBerlin
 
[Chorus]
I am flying on a star into a meteor tonight
I am flying on a star, star, star
I will make it through the day and then the day and then the day becomes the night
I will make it through the night

Songtext zu It Happened Today

[Verse 1]
This is not a parable
This is a terrible
This is a terrible thing
Yes, I will rhyme that after
After all I've done today
I have earned my wings
 
[Chorus]
It happened today, hooray, hooray
It happened, hip-hip-hooray
 
[Verse 2]
We'll leave the allegory
To another Bible story
Out of deference, defiance and choice
And close in on a promise after
After all I've done today
I have earned my voice
 
[Chorus]
It happened today, hooray, hooray
It happened, hip-hip-hooray
 
[Instrumental]

Songtext zu Every Day Is Yours to Win

[Verse 1]
With the walk and the talk
And the tick tock clock
With the rock and the roll
And the bridge and the toll
With the brilliance and the light
And the stink and the fight
And the road ahead of you
I cannot tell a lie
It's not all cherry pie
But it's all there waiting for you, yeah you
 
[Chorus]
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Hey yeah, I know
 
[Verse 2]
With the warp and the wooze
And the subterfuge
Does it all look bitter and blue?
Well, I'm nothing but confused
With nothing left to lose
And if you buy that, I've got a bridge, for you
 
[Chorus]
Hey yeah (Hey yeah)
Hey yeah (Hey yeah)
Hey yeah, I know
Hey yeah (Hey yeah)
Hey yeah (Hey yeah)
Hey yeah, I know
 
 
[Verse 3]
Every day is new again
Every day is yours to win
And that's how heroes are made
I wanted to win
So I said it again
That's how heroes are made
 
[Chorus]
Hey yeah (Hey yeah)
Hey yeah (Hey yeah)
Hey yeah, I know
Hey yeah (Hey yeah)
Hey yeah (Hey yeah)
Hey yeah, I know

Songtext zu Blue

[Verse 1: Michael Stipe]
Yellow circus left the stakes of broken ropes, useless mud
The ties that bind, ha ha
I can be bad poet
Street poet, shit poet
Kind poet too
Subway, almost 4AM Halloween Night
Had enough to drink to make my own party
All my fellow riders in half costume, half asleep
Half silly, gone to seed
I don't mark my time with dates, holidays, fate, wisdom, luck, karma, or whatevers
Convenient
I am made by my times
I am a creation of now
Shaken with the cracks and crevices
I'm not giving up easy
I will not fold
I don't have much
But what I have is gold
 
[Verse 2: Patti Smith & Michael Stipe]
I saw your face
I sing in platinum, I dress in brass
Good, lifting snow
I eat a zinc, let it pass
Compare a toast, I like that
I understand courage
Ever-drifting smoke
I still roll with the shout of a cab driver's attitude today
I try to see outside myself
I understand the eyes
Excuse all the highs
Sorry, I am sorry, ha ha
Boy of the moon
 
 
[Verse 3: Michael Stipe & Patti Smith]
I like you, love you, every coast of you
I'm not your face
I've seen your eddies and tides and hurricanes and cyclones
Low ebb tide and high, full moon
Up close and distant, I read you
Like the sky, the sea, the ocean, the sun, the moon
Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue
Naked and blue
Naked and blue
Breathing with you, touch, change, shift, allow air, window open, drift, drift away, into now
Revenge you
I want Whitman proud, Patti Lee proud, my brothers proud
My sisters proud, I want me, I want it all
I want sensational, irresistible
This is my time and I am thrilled to be alive
Living, blessed, I understand
Twentieth century, collapse into now
 
[Verse 4: Patti Smith and Michael Stipe]
Cinderella boy, you've lost your shoe
Cinderella boy, your coach awaits
(Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue)
A sun makes shadows all over your face
(Blue, blue, blue, blue, blue, blue)
As you sit naked and blue into me
 
 
[Outro: Michael Stipe & Mike Mills]
