Angel (B. Borgers - H. Deinum) album: Friction (1978)
I've ripped my favourite trousers you've stitched them too tight I need them tomorrow can you fix them tonight Sure feels good to be back home again I look like a Hobo but I'm still your loving man I can't make it by myself and I don't want nobody else I know that I promised you to be back yesterday but the car broke down in Paris and we had to stay Now I'm hungry couldn't catch no sleep How I do like to be with you between your satin sheets I can't make it by myself Angel, I don't want nobody else When you get out in this world of glass and stone I'll fight my way through the hassles and try to keep on going on Sometimes I lose, and I need someone to hold on to A man is small when he stands alone A man is small when he stands alone

Can't Decide (B. Borgers) album: Shot Into The Blue (1979)
Baby what I've got - I just don't know But it's coocking inside - and I've gotta show it makes me restless - but I don't care there's a storm coming up - I sense it everywhere what you do to me is plain to see just skin to skin it's in and out and in again this side of love I know so well But what a girl can bring it's hard to tell I can't decide - is it wrong or right Shall I run or fight - I can't decide What I'm gonna do - I cannot foresee But what you got - sure got a hook on me Feel naked like a baby - gotta keep control I don't wanna be a bird in a cage goldfish in a bowl what you do to me is plain to see skin to skin, it's in, out and in again this side of love I know so well what a girl can bring it's so hard to tell I can't decide - is it wrong or right Shall I run or fight - I can't decide

Going Nowhere (B. Borgers - P. Smeenk) albums: Sweet d'Buster (1976)/Gigs (1979)
Some write it on a paper - some write it on the wall but I won't give no message - I won't even call some say we have to change - some say we always do some say it's far too late and no-one will get through living like a gipsy - turn my head in the morning sun like a nonstop movie - people pass and people come in the heart of the city lights turn blue and the crowd moves on if I walk, if I run - I'm going nowhere While the poor man gets hungry - and the rich man gets bored I close my book and I wonder what I'm living for fools are playing guru - fakers playing rock 'n' roll but I won't let nobody dump his junk right into my bowl living like a gipsy - turn my head in the morning sun like a nonstop movie - people pass and people come in the heart of the city lights turn blue and the crowd moves on if I walk, if I run - I'm going nowhere

I walk the streets, try to get what I need high-heeled lady, she's driving me crazy started to talk to her, she didn't answer when the sun sets down, you'll find me hanging around in hard stone, hard stone hard stone jungle coming down on me In came a girl, who could've changed my world with eyes like diamonds and a voice like a pearl and I was sitting there watching her steps one by one by one towards her favourite man and I was alone again hard stone, hard stone hard stone jungle coming down on me My glass refilled and I lit a joint I hate to stay home no way to have fun need someone to talk to about the things I've done before I became another mister no-one hard stone, hard stone hard stone jungle coming down on me

Is It True (B. Borgers - H. Deinum) album: Shot Into The Blue (1979)
You stated your conception on your role on society And captured in your beauty I considered what you said to me Ain't no use explaning what you do or why you do it You can't even move a stone unless you put your heart into it Is it true - or is it fiction Is this love - or perfect timing the way you keep on running and hiding away from me I can track the homework you put in your excuse you can trick a man until he feels he's being used If you plan me to string along to add some color to your decoration I'm gonna give your progressive manners a whole new explanation Is it true - or is it fiction Is this love - or perfect timing the way you keep on running and hiding away from me it's like you're dealing and trying to get it all for free Alternative lady I don't mean maybe Stop this running and hiding away from me

Magic Moment (B. Borgers - H. Lafaille) album: Sweet d'Buster (1976)
Must have been early this morning When I woke from a dream I watch myself and I wonder About a vision that I had seen Time slipping through my hands Just like water flushing down the drain Ever since that magic moment Your finger touched my skin So I went out into the street I wrapped my jacket tight around Crossed the road to the busstop To take a ride out of town Trash on the sidewalk and the bears in the sky Everything is the same old song Ever since that magic moment You've been away too long, you've been away too long Days will go, seasons change Green leaves, turn to brown But early in the morning when I wake up Wonder when you'll be around Fantasies just like pictures from the past Are slowly fading into a dream Ever since that magic moment You came following me I just can't get you out of my mind

What goes on inside - it ain't no use to tell Everytime your name is called by someone else I just walk my way - keep it to myself Still wanna live with you Days are passing by - but the feeling stays No-one comes inside to take your place Cause you belong to me and it can't be no other way Still wanna live with you Still wanna share with you

Mean Woman (B. Borgers - P. Smeenk) album: Shot Into The Blue (1979)
No marks to measure her by the words she says My eyes walking over the clothes that she wears And I catch myself that if I only could I would've spent day and night out in her neighbourhood She's so mean - but she looks so good As I follow her footsteps and checking out her tall tales Everything everywhere is telling me I should be walking the other way When I'd be strong yes if I only could I would turn around but now I look How she's messing over people, she just ain't no good Mother nature is fooling me I can tell with both eyes closed just like my mother was telling me if you can't resist just let it go let it go boy but stay aware that when passion has gone you won't end up alone on the twilight zone

Minutes (Have Come To A Chain) (B. Borgers - W. van Hal) album: Sweet d'Buster (1976)
Many reasons for a man to quit But that's all schoolish logic 'Cause it just won't fit Sweet grapes have grown bitter Like I've never taste it before But by every reason you gave me babe I love you more and more I don't wanna live a life of a loner It gets hot in misery But I'm feeling out to lonesome As I'm looking down from the balcony Honey, now I'm awaiting For a dream to come true I'm awaiting Just couldn't find out about you I've gotta stop fooling myself 'Cause deep down in my heart I knew the truth so well All the time you being in love with someone else I was waiting (Minutes have come to a chain) Waiting (Minutes in prison and pain) You put your spell on me strong enough to keep me waiting, yeah Baby you can push me To the top of my limits And you can crush me Like a burglar with the heels of your snakeskin boots I ain't talking about the promises I'm talking about a pride Talking about being lonely In the black of the night And all my friends They keep on talking about you But they hush when I'm around I had overhear the rumours that spin all over town I was waiting For a dream to come true Waiting Just couldn't find out about you I've gotta stop fooling myself 'Cause deep down in my heart I knew the truth so well All the time you being in love with someone else I was waiting (Minutes have come to a chain) Waiting (Minutes in prison and pain) You put your spell on me Strong enough to keep me waiting, yeah

Money Song (B. Borgers) albums: Friction (1978)/Gigs (1979)
As I sit between the cowboys I fit so well They're trading images but I can't buy what they sell Look through the smoke As the music floats by People come out the backroom with a sparkle in their eye There's a difference like a day from a night Between a frown and a smile and it just ain't right it just ain't right it just ain't right The helmet guys on the motorbikes roar before take off and the girls in the leather suits look on tight to the man they love This rhythm is raging and this place is right to take a chance on gambling 'cause the stakes are high 'cause late at night I can't sleep too well there's a noise outside just like a ringing bell walking up to my window looking out it's the sound of money money talks so loud I want money to do what I wanna do Like a bee needs honey I need a treasure too

Hé Hallo! Sweet d'Buster, Sweet d'Buster Sweet d'Buster, Sweet d'Buster Houdoe! If I were to say the truth About the love I held for you My tongue would stumble My heart would jump And I'll be misunderstood And I've been trying to write it down Through my pencil on the ground So, to wait for no letter to come Here I am, and I stick around Like I told you (One way or another) I'm gonna hold you (One way or another) And unfold you (One way or another) There ain't no other way, no other way I can feel a crazy rhythm Walking up and down my spine And I tell you all my secrets If you tell me that you're be mine All the tales in the whole wide world I read it in your eyes, babe And I've been travelling a 400 miles To hear you talk, to see you smile Like I told you (One way or another) I'm gonna hold you (One way or another) And unfold you (One way or another) There ain't no other way, no other way And I've been trying to write it down Through my pencil on the ground So, to wait for no letter to come Here I am, and I stick around Like I told you (One way or another) I'm gonna hold you (One way or another) And unfold you (One way or another) There ain't no other way, no other way

When you wanna play it rough - be tough when you wanna play it cool - don't move and when you play to win, you might have to start all over again when the world knocks you down you put your feet back on the ground When you wanna hear the truth - better be good to a friend that never lies - or cheats on you and when you really wanna know - from where we came and whereto we go Take your time to lend an ear to the rhythm of your soul Many ways to get to heaven many traps to lead you astray Many roads you must walk on Until there's only room for your very own way Listen to the rhythm of - rhythm of rhythm of your soul

Smash The Mirror (R.J. Stips - A. Link) albums: Friction (1978)/Gigs (1979)
Would you like to swing on a falling star his rusty strings sound so bizarre you can hear them cry you can hear them wonder why why it ever had to come this far Long ago, that's where the story starts you followed the leads coming straight from your heart climbed all the way up to settle down no more guts for another round while your heart still felt the same Are you still sad with that mask you wear how would you feel if it wasn't there I see you do mind about your make-up you better make your mind up, now now your heart still feels the same See him ravin' like a mad man looking for the last spark in his soul in the eyes of the public reflects he's gaining weight and loosing control even a king like Elvis couldn't smash this mirror apart couldn't smash the mirror and make a new start

Reading the paper, this world is on fire but it ain't nothing to my burning desire The frontpage with the headlines and the figures in the financial news everything's an alibi, for your mind is stuck on you Biking up and down, as I look around people walk so sad with their eyes on the ground But I'm not gonna run blind-eyed bump my head on the wall if you throw me some changes I'm gonna catch them all Twentyfour hours a day need your loving all the way Don't let me stand in the cold while I'm knocking to get inside your door Stir up the fire Stir up the fire

Under City Lights (B. Borgers - H. Deinum - P. Smeenk) album: Gigs (1979)
My friends from the past turn their back on me they say I'm americanized - still they wait and meditate until their persian carpet takes off and flies I'll dash through curves - don't look back just following the signs - along this lonesome freeway to where it runs under City Lights living under City Lights - where people strain to get satified living under City Lights Well dressed girls, wired up-boys - they underscore their passions by shaking it loose on rhythmic noise - display the latest fashion and the coloured dudes - they lay it down on a timeless beat I'll roll myself another one - I'm going high on congo weed living under City Lights - where people strain to get satisfied living under City Lights

When It's Over (B. Borgers) album: Shot Into The Blue (1979)
You wake in the morning - and you draw your curtains Slipping silently through the routines of the day But this silence's been too long - I noticed something wrong You passed the impression that you had to go away When it's over - don't try to save me This precious feeling grows to pain I can't hold out - living like strangers anymore And I will face the truth - soon as you will tell me that it's over I hear the water running - while the radio's playing I lay in bed and pretend I'm still asleep girl in every situation - you avoid all conversations Even when my eyes are closed I'm looking through the shield
