Well she’s betting on two horses, two horses in a race Which one will make it to the end She’s betting on two horses, and they’re not feeling fine They turn their heads ‘cause they don’t understand And they say baby, what do you want And they say honey, what do you want Well she’s betting on two horses, I wonder if it’s fair I wonder how they feel She’s betting on two horses, is she playing truth or dare? These horses, they both want their share And they say baby, what do you want And they say honey, what do you want She’s betting on two horses Once they were free Now they are both living in misery She’s betting on two horses And one of them is me She doesn’t even know how crazy I can be And I said baby, what do you want! And I said honey, what do you want!

The Knight 03:38
Once upon a time, there was a boy Who had many dreams, but (had) never had a goal Until one day he left everything behind He had a quest, he would become a knight He himself was made of the right stuff His heart was true, his spirit brave He didn’t know fear simply because He knew he didn’t have a thing to lose He didn’t have a horse for he’d been living in the city his entire life But he could count on his boots, they never failed him, So he went on the march On his belt he had a sword that he’d once found on a flea market downtown Where he was searching for himself, his destiny, back in his days of doubt He didn’t have a property for he had sold his flat some time ago So he could keep travelling on and on, the road was his home now He’d never had a ladylove, his constant search had never left his side, Not until the day on which he knew what he could be, he was a knight, and finally free

Mother is sleeping With her eyes wide open Reading pulp fiction from the local book store Mother’s a guardian No one shall pass her Even when she’s fast asleep Don’t try to wake her She might be angry Shut all the lights and hurry up Mother is Sleeping Don’t try to wake her Mother is Sleeping Leave her alone Mother is waiting ‘till we all go upstairs She’s annoying people but she doesn’t know why No movies will be watched No food will be eaten The eye of mother sees everything Mother is Sleeping Don’t try to wake her Mother is Sleeping Leave her alone

Somewhere 03:54
Let me tell you Something new Where are you I feel you You’re out there Somewhere You’re far away I’m here to stay I wanna go dancing in the sun Go running in the woods and have some fun I wanna be with you everywhere you’re going I don’t know you But I’ve looked into Your eyes I’m paralyzed You’re magical Unbelievable What can I say? I dream away I wanna go dancing in the sun Go running in the woods and have some fun I wanna be with you everywhere you’re going You and me and the world around Two souls, lost and found The stars will shine upon us, yeah yeah yeah yeah ! I’m lonely It’s just me What can I say? I dream away Where are you? I feel you You’re out there Somewhere

Burn 03:05
Burn Every page I wanna turn Just to see The smoke I used to be Move on Spinning circles ‘round the sun Rise The fighting spirit never dies Sometimes I lose I lose Hope But give me enough rope ‘cause in the end After going down I will ascend When the road Becomes too heavy on the road I know Pain will bring relief in letting go Always In thoughts In thoughts I live

The Road 05:11
He knew one day he’d pack his junk There were too many people in this concrete trunk While he just felt on his own He knew exactly what he left behind, Thousands of people with a worried mind Some place he‘d never felt at home I’ve been on the road for miles and miles I’ve been on the road yeah I’ve been on the road for miles and miles And I still haven’t found what I’m looking for For some reason he had nothing to lose And a man, his life should be his to choose So he chose, that he had had enough It wasn’t hard for him to turn his back Leave his house and get the sack It was time for life he had been dreaming of I’ve been on the road for miles and miles I’ve been on the road yeah I’ve been on the road for miles and miles And I still haven’t found what I’m looking for

Grab a chair and drink with us For we have much to tell Come and gather all around Listen to our stories Waiter, fill our mugs again For we have much to tell We eat and drink and we are merry In the Flaming Barrel Welcome to the flaming barrel! Stick around before you travel! This is where we sing our songs and Where we feel at home! Travellers from far and wide All come to rest their bones All your troubles disappear In the flaming barrel We will dance and we will sing Until the night is gone Everything you need is here In the Flaming Barrel
