If there's a reason why you leave me
Then I like to hear it now
I'll simply bend my head
I won't cry out loud

I know all this time we spent together
Was not so important to you
You always knew, there would come a time

Oh you look real good in your blue jeans and a pink sweater.
But in a cocktail dress I guess, you look even better!

I got your photograph, so your memories line up on the table.
But your gone with the wind, and I wish I was dead!
Just like Clarck Gable.......

The sun goes down for a lonely four.

Well in a few more hours, and millions of people
hate their alarm clock even more than their wives
The day is beginning, you can tell by the sunrise
People get ready for a day in their lives

They'€™re getting together in the streets of the city
Like lost computers of a shattered tribe
They're all in a hurry, to be in time

Here comes the night
A veil over the light
In the distance some shadows of the clouds in the sky
I've got to get home, to my child, my wife

Here comes the night
I'm scared to death, got to get me a ride
It looks like the road is swallowing me up

Here comes the night
A veil over the light
In the distance some shadows,
of the clouds in the sky
I've got to get home to my child, my wife
Here comes the night
I'm scared to dead, got to get me a ride
It look's like the road is swallowing me up

I've been faster, than my own shadow
I've been colder, than an ice pick you know
What really matters, is a heart of gold
And a whole lotta money, and a fat checkbook

Been a gambler, had nothing better to do
Been crazy for fools like you
What really matters is, make a dream come true

If your circles could be spirals
And your idols weren't machines
If you could pick up all the signals
And flash on where you've been

Maybe you don't feel it at all
It's your own fault, crawl boy crawl
If you could quit the miming

How could I tell you that I loved you
You never gave me a chance
How could I know that you put me down
You had no reason, I'm on the ground

How could I know that you were out of reach
Higher than any star, sparklin' in the velvet sky
Why did you make me cry, I couldn't touch you

Don't try to put the blame on me
Every night I come stealin' home
You keep thinkin' I've been drinkin'
I've been missin' you – no – no
Damn sheriff ain't no friend of mine
Hand-coffin' my good times
Got no pity, show no mercy
Sure makes me think of you

Well you walk into the room, with your pencil in your hand
You see somebody naked and you say: who's that man
You try so hard, but you don't understand
Just what you will say when you get home

Because somethin' is happenin'
You don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Well take a look at me now here
Another sucker ruining the atmosphere
Gotta be the story of my life
From the very embryo start
It's been piles and piles and piles of goo goo
How about you, how about you
No one take notice of a little thing
Start to grow into a big thing

I wanna go ahead until I just run out of gas
We gotta beat the road with four-wheel thunder
There's a Cadillac dealer in Kansas City counting money
And the highway patrol ain't going nowhere

Don't say no, don't say no, don't make me grieve
Don't say no, don't say no, you gotta feel the breeze

Blue for the blue - I feel when I'm feelin' down
On the ground - feelin' down that could be most anyday
Green for the eyes - take a look around
When the sun goes down - and the sun goes down
In the strangest way -
Red for the light - gotta stop this thing
Find a song to sing that is everything
That I meant to say - meant to say -

Pick pocket with a red coat on
Dishy dashing through a squirrel-farm
Police cat high heeled hat
Pointing out just where it's at
And I close my eyes to see reality
Mickey Mouse on the hillside flees
When I brush his garden with my knees
It's an oxtails symfony

Lizzy the lizard
Met an angry young snake
With forked-tongue grace
By the name of Jake:
A yellow eyed diamond back rattler
In the chill-out room
Of the 'wildlife saloon'
She admired his skin,

It was a night like any other night
As it moved into a new day
Came up to a crossroad
Colours turnin' to grey yeah
You had troubles way back home
So you had a good excuse
How could you resit her anyway
Her big brown eyes made you lose made you lose your mind

Eight miles high and when you touch down
You'll find that it's stranger than known
Signs in the street that say where you're going
Are somewhere just being their own

Nowhere is there warmth to be found
among those afraid of losing their ground
Rain gray town known for its sound

She took my money, she stole my car
Broke my heart and smashed my guitar
She slandered my name and laughed in my face
And on Saturday night she went and trashed the whole place

She's drivin' me crazy, beyond insane
She plays with my mind, as if it's a game
And most of all stranger than strange

Golden Earring - Going to the run

I could bet on new-years eve
He'd call me up at night
From the other side of the world
Ed was always there alright
Ed's got the looks of a movie star
Ed's got the smile of a prince

Red light, green light
Speedin' trough the dark night
Drivin' trough the poundin' rain
I gotta see Jane
Windshield, wiper splashin', splashin'
Callin' out her nameÂ
Just gotta see Jane

Dreaming 'bout the future and drinkin' on the past
Thinkin' 'bout the things that been forgotten
Tryin' to remember and tryin' to forget
That my life is empty without you
Sayonara, close your eyes now little girl
'cause tomorrow hides a whole different world

Hold me now, you gotta guide me through the night

In bad times when it's dark and cold
You got no place to rest your soul
There's laughter behind your backs
Then it seems the devil rules the deck

Nothin' seems easy these days
Or do I see it in a different way
The world is spinnin', well that's OK

* Seven tears

Loosing
Got a feeling we're holding
The wrong end of the line
We're dealing day's but we ain't dealing time
Go on fake it cause you're not gonna make it tonight
Better sit back and kick your boots away

You're tired of all your imitation friends
And your job of course is boring
And when you're at home and you sit before the fire
And you look into the flames, then you see
You gotta leave in the early morning
You wanna go there where your friends will be friends
And your job, a vacation trip
And the dark days, oh sunny moments

Silver like a fish slappin' on my tongue
Speak to me the way you do
Hide me all summer in your arms
Hold me the way I like you to
You fill my cup 'till it's crackin' up
The button that says alarm
Says me I'm not supposed to
Be like a champ that's going down

I believe I'm in a bad mood girl
And I hope it won't last too long
Last time I had a bad mood girl
Everything turned out wrong

I'm living in a bad mood world
The heart's bleeding
Don't it make you cry

Waitress, more wine
We celebrate, the life and times of Johnny Make Believe
He was the greatest liar, of all mankind
The biggest drunk, you ever saw alive
He was a devil, undisguised
He will be sorely missed tonight

And the next day, will never be the same

(G.Kooymans - Dayglow music)
oh believe me it's not true
The rainbow hides no treasure

and there ain't no mixture
that will give you back your youth
No mystic machine that makes the sand turn to gold
Like there ain't no magic word

The rainbow hides no treasure
Oh believe me it's not true
And there ain't no mixture
That will give you back your youth
No mystic machine that makes the sand turn to gold
Like there ain't no magic word
That holds you back from getting old

Mother mother, gotta understand,
That mother mother we've got murder on our hands.
Your sons & your daughters
rapin' eachother on the steps of a church,
They no longer depend on
The cry of a wolf in a lightnin' storm
The scream of a hawk,
anxious to get airborn

Anywhere you go, I will follow, I will follow
Every time you call, I can hear you
My killer my shadow, where ever I go, you follow
Through the busy street, straight and narrow, wide and shallow
Yeah
(Where ever you go) - you make me forget all my yesterdays
You made me care not for my tomorrow
(Where ever you go) - my my my my killer

From the Album:
* Eight miles high

When daylight and nighttime feel the same
It's time for your mind to play the game
Close all your eyes and touch the air
Reach for the hand that must be there
You can hide away from reality

Went down to the liquor store
I had enough, but I needed more
Give me a six-pack
I got money, I got cash yeah

Take my life, break the seal
Take my knife, cut the waitin'
Say the word, no hesitatin'

Get out of my parlour, won't you
Get out of my life
Put on that crazy raincoat
You're gonna need it tonight
Get out of my parlour
For I cut you with a knife
Don't want your disease
Don't need that silly jive

You want different positions
To keep your love-life successful
And you want a happy ending
With lots of stud potential
Reliable and perpetual
Without being distasteful, oh wee

My papa says it's not the size

from "Contraband" (p)1976

You want different positions
To keep your love life successful
And you want a happy ending
With lots of stud potential reliable and perpetual
Without being distasteful

You know the first time I saw the X-Files
I was stoned as usual
Here comes Scully walking in
Zappin' through the Cartwrights
Fox Mulder went and lost his gun
He keeps holding on to the flashlight

Shining bright on lost memories

We have been waitin' for this
To put an end to all bliss
Oh there's works to be done
Oh there's work under the sun
Happy New Year!
In the back alley's
Millionaire valley's
Trafalgar Time Square and the who knows where!

Paradise in Distress

Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new penthouse in heaven
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the good old neighbourhood on a one way trip to hell

Another hour past midnight
Moonshine through the skylight
The bottle's empty and my mind is full
of your ghost that keeps hauntin' this room

And I can spend all my life
Just sittin' here paralyzed
And I could spend all my life

Another hour past midnight
Moonshine through the skylight
The bottle's empty and my mind is full
Of your ghost that keeps hauntin' this room
And I could spend all my life
Just sittin' here paralised
And I could spend all my life
Waitin' for you to materialise

I've been drivin' all night,
My hand's wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head
That drives my heel
It's my baby callin',
Says: I need you here
And it's a half past four
And I'm shifting gear

Tell me what's happenin'
Curiosity doin' me in
Something strange happenin'
You keep a closed door behind you
Got a window I can't see through
Lock your mail inside a drawer
Never did me like that before

She just found out what it's all about
She don't wanna be another face in the crowd
Gets on her feet, starts walkin' out
Looks like she's got herself some sense of direction now
All the birds in the sky sing in harmony
Sound-track to the title-roll of a success movie
Featuring little miss make believe
Everybody wants her nobody gets her

Smoking cigarettes
Don't know what to do
I was wrong
and now you're gone
honey, oh honey, I need you
You didn't said hello
Now I know, I can't miss you
And I love you more

Tryin’ to make a livin’
Scratchin’ on my guitar
Sneakin’ through the city
in my big black car

I could ask you what you’d do if you were me
After the beep into the answering machine

Why am I tonight, feelin' so low
My poor head is spinnin' round and round and round
Could it be that, by a total lack of love
In fact I'm busy, dyin'
Tell me where or when,
Tell me how I'll go
Am I invited to your dreams,
I'd like to know

Take my soul, take it away from me
Take my pride, take my dignity
Weepin' like a fool in broad daylight
And I know it just ain't right
I just won't listen to the sound of advice
Pray for me darling all through the night

Temporary madness, emotional overload

All set, court's in session
This judge, got no compassion
Witness, show me your right hand
I swear, nothing but the truth now

I was alright till she came along
I was alright, then it all went wrong

Strong rough hands seized the shiny wood
Carried her on stage and there she stood
Every time when she performed
The audience smiled or cried
But after years of cheers and fame
Her sound got old and died

Na, na, na, na

Somewhere in a lonely hotel room
there's a guy starting to realize
that his eternal fate
has turned it's back on him.

It's 2am....

It's 2 A.M. the fear has gone

Troubles, hassles, I know you too well
Always in trouble
I smell problems, crucial
My cross gets another nail
Baby it's ordeals, between meals
Shackles, unseen, torture in 3d detail
I'm dead alive

On a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine moanin' out it's one note song
You can think about the woman, or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering, the way they always do
When you're riding sixteen hours and there's nothing there to do
And you don't feel much like riding, you just wish the trip was through

Here I am, on the road again

It's 2 A.M. the fear has gone
I'm sitting here waiting the gun still warm
Maybe my connection is tired of taking chances

Yeah there's a storm on the loose
Sirenes in my head
Wrapped in silence all circuits are dead
Cannot decode my whole life spins into a frenzy

(G.Kooymans/B.Hay)

When the lady smiles,
You know it drives me wild
Her lips are warm and resourceful
When her fingertips,
Go drawing circles in the night
Then the mood is soft and sensual, hu-u

We swing high, we swing low
Never worry bout a dull moment
You're mine, I'm yours
We fight while we know that we shouldn't
Ten dollar, ten times
On sale to the highest bidder
Ten dollar, ten times
Is the price of love considered
