Hush 01:47
Words thrill a drill in the dream of the slumbering nation. They can get us killed in the mid of the communication. Your mouth keeps a tiger soon you will be murdered by season. They can get us killed for a wit, not for a reason.. not for a reason .. not for a reason ... so don't say a word .. so don't make a wish ..

-- (CURSE OF) THE DOWNTOWN DOGS -- Here come the nightmares from a crowded city square (They’re hiding in the dark... They’re sleeping in the park...) I say, "Do you have a light?" "Well I’m out of cigarette" "Look at the man in the cab, I bet, he has what we need, but we have to make him dead!" (..Bang!) Rich-man‘s making money, he’s busy in the day... Poor boy‘s buying fast-love, Messing up, driving thru’ the nite... I see snow,, it’s falling down the city, This city will burn (2x)... I hear poor boy’s crying for dignity... Oh, anybody want to take him home? I’m not complaining ‘bout the weather in the sky. It’s just a vision of future,, of a Bloody Sunday Oh, Sir or Madame would you hear this lullaby and pay attention to the bridge ? (It will turn your dreams into nightmares...) It’s just the curse of the downtown dogs... We’ll catch you when you leap ... We'll watch you while you sleep ... Your money’s safe in the Bank When there’s a thief in the nite, the dogs are ready to fight! Here come the nightmares from a crowded city square, A killer... a robber... a ripper... a burglar... just name it! We have it, there..

Game Over 02:21
-- GAME OVER -- When I Say, "Yes... yes... yes...". Oh, you say, "No... no... no...". So I Say, "come on... come on... come on... since the time is running out..." So I say, "Why-why-why" But you say, "I Don't know" Maybe love is just a game... maybe love is such a game... Come on, baby love me now... come on, baby show me how to play my part I’m ready to drop You break my heart... Please stop!!!! The game is over now... It's about the time, start over now Why don't we say goodbye, before we say hello to a brand new day... on brand new way... I think I’m ready to lose you now! When I count, "One and two and three" And you say, "Four - five - six" I see you want to make a trick’ And I say: "Boy, you make me sickkk!" So I say, "Bye... bye... bye..." But you say, "Please don’t go" Maybe love is just a game (Such a silly-silly game) Come on - come on... love me now... Show me - show me... show me how? What is right? ...and what is wrong? Yes I’m right… yes I’m wrong!

-- THE STICKERMAN -- This is the story of Mawan The Stickerman. He has a lot of words, but he don’t know how to say it right.. He gave his plastic love, now he lives with his empty heart He sleeps in Laguna, for he wakes in New York City .. This is a confession of Lady-molition-man He has a lot of girls, but he don’t know how to treat them right Erase the memory.. rewind the movie , my friend.. Life is a drama, and you’re the actor my friend.. Mawan The Stickerman.. Love is like a gum.. you can chew it, and then spit it out, when it’s bitter Mawan The Stickerman.. Love is like a game You can play.. but you’re out when it’s over Love is a story.. someday it will end.. go to sleep.. don’t you worry, my friend Love is a memory.. someday you’ll forget her.. go to sleep.. don’t you worry, my friend

Maze 03:36
-- MAZE -- The goal of the game is to find a way out without being caught by the enemy... The mission is a fiction if you fail to get out without being tracked by the agony... Oh, you can stop and make a hop and you will try another way... You can run, and you can hide but you will die another day... A maze is a race in a space... It's a maze.... (3x) The goal of the game is to find a way out without being caught by the enemy ... -- music -- The goal of the game is to find a way out without being caught by the enemy ... The mission is a fiction if you fail to get out without being tracked by the agony ... Oh, you can stop, and make a hop and you will try another way ... You can run, and you can hide but you will die another day ... A maze is a race in a space... it's a maze.... (3x) If life is a game, then love is the maze We got to get out of this deadly place... If life is a game, then love is the maze We got to get out of this deadly place ...
