Bad Mood

bad mood
you ask me what is wrong with me
is there anything you can do
I tell you: go, fuck yourself
I'm not in need for you
I don't want you to cheer me up
or to comfort me
and don't you dare hold me tight
fuck off and let it be
it's just a bad bad mood I am in
it's just a bad bad mood I am in
if you don't lose that worried look
I will be sick on you
go find yourself another toy
'cos you don't have a clue

Good for Nothing

good for nothing
I don't know how are eggs to cook
I don't know how to read a book
and I can't play piano - no!
I cannot do the washing up
I always break the plates and cups
and I can't work the hoover - no!
my mother said: you're good for nothing, boy
my father said: you're good for nothing, girl
and I know that I'm good for nothing
but I don't care, no I don't care
I don't know what is two and four
I don't know who the Tories are
and I can't do a pull-up - no!
I don't know how to drive a car
I don't know who did win the war
I don't know who Beethoven was
My teacher said: you're good for nothing, boy
my tutor said: you're good for nothing, girl
and I know that I'm good for nothing
but I don't care, no I don't care
I don't know what a blow job is
and I don't know how to kiss
and I don't like to hold your hand
I don't really like romance
and I don't know how to dance
and I can't promise to be true
My girlfriend said: you're good for nothing, boy
my boyfriend said: you're good for nothing, girl
and I know that I'm good for nothing
but I don't care, no I don't care

She's A Psycho
01:59
|

she's a psycho
she's a psycho, she's a nutter
she is not in her right mind
she often feels unloved and really sad
sometimes she can hardly bear it
but she would never tell
if she showed her true feelings who would care?
she's an a-student
she's a beauty queen
all the boys around would crawl for her
she's a psycho, she's a nutter
she is not in her right mind
sometimes she doesn't know where she could run
her friends could not imagine
what's going on inside
when she's around it's always so much fun
she's an a-student ...
she just talks about her happy world
her perfect happy life
and at night she lies awake and cries
she's an a-student ...

The Kids

the kids
why are the kids these days so stupid
why are the kids these days so dumb
why are the kids these days so selfish
and why are they so ignorant?
why are the kids these days so evil
why are the kids these days so cruel
why are the kids these days so thoughtless
and why do they think that's cool?
maybe it's just me getting old ...
why are the kids these days so simple
why can't they tell of what they thought
why are the kids these days so helpless
and what are they really taught?
why are the kids these days so boring
why are the kids these days not free
why aren't the kids these days creative
and where is their fantasy?
maybe it's just me getting old ...
oh these kids ... are not like i was ...
and the world ... is falling to pieces ...
what do you think? ... is it just me? ...
or are the kids different today?
guess it's just me getting old ...

你是我的雷蒙斯

你是我的雷蒙斯
生活的变化快
没有你的节奏快
享受享受无聊的生活
听见电话里充满了快乐
快快打开收音机
收收收了兴奋的消息
让这新一代的故事延续
潮流潮流在欺骗自己
你是我的雷蒙斯
你是我的雷蒙斯
你是我的雷蒙斯
你是我的雷蒙斯

In A Box
01:32
|

in a box
you just want me to be happy
you just want my best
that's why you keep me in a box
tell me what to do
tell me where to go and how to be
you just want me to be happy
you just want my best
that's why you shut me up
and turn me 'round
make me stop and run
if you just want me to be happy
and you want my best
you would let me go
let me try
let me fail and let me win

Modern City Outlaw

modern city outlaw
modern boy and modern girl
lost in modern city world
modern city - modern city outlaw
he wants to be a pirate but he cannot swim
she wants to be a mermaid but she cannot sing
he wants to be a gangster but he has no scar
she wants to be a cowgirl but the west is far
he raised another credit but he still is skinned
she think's she's a big fish and just is tinned
he thinks he is in heaven but it's just a bar
she wants to try the drive-in but she has no car
modern city - modern city outlaw

Last Survivor
02:01
|

last survivor
you ring my bell, you want me to come out
you say that I can't spend my nights at home
you invite me to your parties and you call me on the phone
because you think I must be sad alone
let me be the shipwrecked guy
on an island of my own
let me be the last survivor
you're telling me I'm missing all the fun
and sure, I know exactly what you mean
you know I'd love to but my cat she cannot sleep
you know she's always making such a scene

Words
01:13
|

words
you don't go to demonstrations
violence is not your mean
fight and struggle with police men
isn't quite of what you dream
hear the other people fight
for your right - that's alright
while you're sitting in your bedroom
where it's safer than outside
with the guitar in your hand
you do your part to safe your land
and your songs will change the world
cos you know how much words hurt
words hurt - you're a singer, you're no fighter
people say you're so political
people say you are so critical
but you never raise your hand
you're just a singer in a band
words hurt ...

Rewind The Tape
01:58
|

rewind the tape
you're chatting, shouting, gossiping
and you don't even breathe
I cannot listen anymore
can you stop it, please?
can't shut you up
can't turn you down
you just won't stop this crap
so I put on my headphones
and I turn the volume up
because I just need music
my chance to escape
and if you talk for hours
I just rewind the tape
you're teaching, preaching, lecturing
you want to make me see
but that's not what I want to know
that's not where I wanna be
you're moaning, groaning and complaining
your whole world is grey
there is no sunshine in your life
no matter what I say
you'll see I just need music ...
you're lying, crying, promising
you don't want me to go
I don't believe you anymore
this time I just say no
and now I just need music ...

Too Much
02:13
|

too much
today i'm not after communication
today i'm not after company
i long for a little moderation
some laissez-faire, a little quiet and peace
today i'm sitting in my corner
deprived of my sense of what is true
a little lost and pretty worn-out
today i'm not of use to you
cos it's too much, too much ...
it's much too much today for me
today i don't know what to tell you
when you ask what's going on
it's pretty hard to describe the feeling
when nothing's really going wrong
it's just too much, too much ....

Not The Ones Berlin, Germany
NOT THE ONES aus Ost-Berlin spielen simplen 77-Punk mit Ohrwurmmelodien.
Dem Titel der ersten LP entsprechend
versuchen NOT THE ONES seit Jahren, mit ihrer Musik schlechte Laune zu verbreiten, doch Publikum & Kritiker sprechen stets von Gute-Laune-Musik.
Bei Wanda Records heißt es: „Charmant-britische Guitar Punk-Nummern in Richtung Alternative TV & Adverts, versetzt mit Boys/Lurkers-Melodien.“
