New Flat
(Hofstede)
East west home's best
There's no place like home
No letters in the box
No voices on the phone
Elevator up and down
Floor one to ten
When I'm almost on the street
I go up again
New flat!
Big table small bed
New kitchen too
Neighbours I've never met
And I don't need you
Home's where the heart is
This heart of stone
Litter in the box
Noises on the phone
New flat big table and a small bed
New flat black white yellow blue red
New flat skyline I'm looking at
New flat neighbours I've never met
There's a suitcase filled with
Interesting papers nervous little
Drawings of the many big inventions
That I've made
East west home's best
Don't be my guest
I wanna be alone
Cos' there's no place like home
Holiday on Ice
(Hofstede)
She's so innocent
He's so different
On this mountain in Switzerland
She knows nothing 'bout boys
He had too much choice
On this mountain in Switzerland
The instructor is a handsome man
He's going up and down again
Oh no I oh no no I
She knows nothing 'bout boys
He had too many toys
On this mountain in Switzerland
He's so different
She's so innocent
On this mountain in Switzerland
She's a typist she's a tourist
Like an iceberg never been kissed
Oh no no I oh no no I
Don't wanna spend my holiday on ice
She's so different
He's so innocent
On this mountain in Switzerland
He knows nothing 'bout boys
She had too much choice
On this mountain in Switzerland
The vulcano's covered up with snow
It's twenty-five below zero
Oh no I oh no no I
Don't wanna spend my holiday on ice
Saragossa
(Peters)
Saragossa mating season
Got to go to-day
It's my nature versus reason
Somehow I can't stay
I am an eel somewhere
Out in the ocean
Finding it's way on his own
Fresh water salt water
Gulf streams and cold water
Only one sea is my home
Saragossa mating season
Got to go to-day
It's my nature versus reason
Somehow I can't stay
Office at Night
(Hofstede)
In the office at night
Someone switched off the light
Young man standing by the window
Looking down on the street below
In the office at night
And the light falls through
The windows on the sidewalks
And the light falls through
The windows on the sidewalks
On the corner at night
There's a bar with some tables
Near the window
Coloured squares where the
Nighthawks meet
Creeping out of the dark street
On the corner at night
And the light falls through
The windows on the sidewalks
And the light falls through
The windows on the sidewalks
Uncle on Mars
(Hofstede)
I said it's incredible
You said it's not true at all
Car hits car kills car hits car kills
I said it's a miracle
You said it's incredible
Car hits car kills car hits car kills
My uncle went to Mars he is out there
Looking at the stars uncle on Mars
My uncle went to Mars he is out there
Looking at the stars uncle on Mars
I said it's incredible
You said it's not true at all
Car hits bikes and family targets
I said it's a miracle
You said it's not true at all
Car hits car kills car hits car kills
My uncle went to Mars he is out there
Looking at the stars uncle on Mars
My uncle went to Mars he is out there
Looking at the stars uncle on Mars
Breakfast in those strange hotels
No one listens no one tells
Running in dark cinemas
Looking for the exit
Statue
(Peters)
He doesn't talk much
He doesn't move about either
No one likes him
No one dares to come nearer
It started harmlessly
Heavy on every knee
Couldn't tell from the start
He was a piece of art
He's becoming
He's becoming a statue
Not a bit like
Bit like me and you
He is very
Very much his own man
Look his face!
He's a made out of stone man
It started harmlessly
Heavy on every knee
Couldn't tell from the start
He was a piece of art
We think he's becoming
He's becoming a statue
A statue
Tell me Harry
Harry is that you ?
His First Object
(Hofstede)
Fresh shirts in the drawer
Fast train to the city
His first object
Had to protect
Locked behind doors
His first object
Fresh shirts in the drawer
Fast train to the city
Different Kitchen
(Hofstede)
He is standing in the living room
She is sitting on the bedroom floor
They are talking to each other on the babyphone
He lights another cigaret
She is re-arranging pillows on the bed
Kids in the kitchen rain outside she wants a
Different house different garden different table
Different chair different make-up different dress
Different kitchen different
He likes the girls young and rich
Taking showers in their sunny homes
Wet footprints towels lipstick
He spends his weekends at the zoo
Elephant snake monkey
Kids in the car and rain outside he wants a
Different girl different car different suit
Different watch different heart different beat
Different girl she's different different
Different house different garden
Different girl different suit
Different nose different food
Different elbow different smile
Different T-shirt different oo
Different clothes different feet
Different eyes different job
Different money different life
Different room different wife
Different table different chair
Different car different flat
Different heart different home
Different kitchen different
Safety in Numbers
(Peters)
No one can harm me
This is my army
No one can hurt me
No one deserts me
I'm walking up front you're lagging behind
I want action don't need peace of mind
You stay on your own and say we are wrong
You're strange and you're restless you keep looking on
I'm in the crowd I'm never alone
We're carrying sticks and we're carrying stones
You say we are scared I know you are too
Why don't you join us there's a place for you
Join us now why don't you join us
Now why don't you join us
Say why don't you join
I'm walking up front you're lagging behind
I want action don't need peace of mind
You stay on your own and say we are wrong
You're strange and you're restless you keep looking on
You seem to believe the things that you read
Why don't you give up it's all that you need
We only believe the things that we do
Why don't you join us there's a place for you
Join us!!
Now why don't you join us
Now why don't you join us
Say why don't you join

Zebra
(Peters)
Wait! Cross now!
Wait! Cross now!
Wait! Cross now!
Wait! Cross now!
Here I am on the zebra
Here I am on the zebra
Laughing cars traffic war
Grinnin' grilles iron smiles
Traffic war laughing cars
Iron smiles grinnin' grilles
Here I am on the zebra (repeat)
Look left look right
Look right look out!!
Not a traffic light in sight
Rubber Gloves
(Peters)
She was a chanceless contender in the Deborah Harry
Look alike contest a long time ago
He was an upcoming doctor wearing rubber gloves
That is the reason he was stealing the show
She looking at him
She looked at him and thought of something to say
He looked at her
He looked at her and she was looking away
Will they meet in time? Will they meet in time?
He'd love to take her home and tell her
'Bout the romantic disease he had got
She didn't know she didn't believe him
There is no reason there is no plot
Will they meet in time?
Will they meet in time?
Reason and rhyme
She's still a chanceless contender in the Deborah Harry
Look alike contest who lost in the end
He's still an upcoming doctor wearing rubber gloves
That is the reason she refused him her hand
Will they meet in time?
Will they meet in time?
A chanceless contender in the Deborah Harry
Look alike contest who lost in the end
Bite Better Bark
(Hofstede)
They hide in the curtain
They smell I'm not certain
In the night
Domestic animals bite
They scratch they've got nails
In the dark
Domestic animals bark
His bite is better than his bark
When you meet him in the dark
His bite is better than his bark
He's a comfort for the ladies
He's a danger for the babies
In the dark
Domestic animals bark
They hide in the curtain
They smell I'm not certain
In the night
Domestic animals bite
His bite is better than his bark
When you meet him in the dark
His bite is better than his bark
His bite is better
His bite is better
His bite is better than his bark
