No Goodbye 02:35
I can say goodbye but that's not fair enough I can save my soul but I'll probably caugh I can wave at you and stand still the cold But I can't swear the fact that I'll not become bold I fly No goodbye You too Let's go all together for climbing christmas cranes I sing you singing gifts and drove myself insane I'll remember you, will you remember me far from this icy city I hope not coz I'm fine murmuring melodies singing songs quietly I fly No goodbye You too Is that true Really true Totally Completely Endlessy

Illugagata 02:49
There's a keen boy He's a Finn shy Leaving on a rock on a messy Island Illugagata Kingdom of the straw The puffins rulled the volcano But they were fake Come rain or snow The Finns made all those birds in Illugaga Street of Desire Plump puffins empire Capturing their final breath Fascination for death Glittering wings for gloomy people Exotic beeks you're such an asshole If you miss the accessory which wil assure you The Vestmannaey's glory Lonely but passionate His fate was clear it was to be a puffin's percher ( a what?) Against all odds Obssessive flood down there in Illugagata The business was running fast Was going good thanks to the bastards who spend their wages Buying all kinds of masks And other creepy shit from Illugagata Street of Desire Plump puffins empire Capturing their final breath Fascination for death Glittering wings for gloomy people Exotic beeks you're such an asshole If you miss the accessory which wil assure you The Vestmannaey's glory One day our Finn got bored Of all that illusory reign that he made real He grabbed his full puffin outfit And went onto the roofs of Illugagata He jumped into the void vivid And ran away from cliff to cliff Direction : the ocean Not without some grief For all the good times back in Illugagata Street of Desire Plump puffins empire Capturing their final breath Fascination for death Glittering wings for gloomy people Exotic beeks you're such an asshole If you miss the accessory which wil assure you The Vestmannaey's glory

Zhunagzi 02:50
I am alone and inert showing no sign Like an infant that has not yet smile I am a stream of cream, the softness brine ANd don't try to hurt me, there's no way to collide Just call me Mo-Tzu or Zhunagzi I'm a good traveller, I leave no track or trace I drip sweet dew, beautiful words are not true The tender and the weak together at a snail's pace Empty like a bawl, humaneness' clue Just call me Mo-Tzu or Zhunagzi Dwelling in the fruit from Fludir red and juicy Hanging out amoung slugs, aphids and mosquitoes Cooking a small fish's like a jubillee Tranquillity mixed with afternoon blows Just call me Mo-Tzu or Zhunagzi

Lonely Girls 02:27
Pavla from Russia 12 tear's old dirty socks For flirt in a box She was a lonely girl In a foreign world Was a lonely girl in a worldless world Helena from Italia Tender smile Wave at you Doesn't what to say doesn't what to day Lily from North Korea Was really ready To learn old Icelandic She enters happy She turns tragic She was a lonely girl In a foreign world Was a lonely girl in a worldless world Jessy Beth from Australia Frenzied hair almost like straw Easy going and very talkative She became mute, melancholic Just because she's been put and some dark and unbreathable basement's room by some horrible and discriminative office Anyway She was a lonely girl In a foreign world Was a lonely girl in a worldless world

Là bas 03:00
Des ronds de craie se sont noyés dans la baie Près de maison le Mont Saint Michalon L'île mystagogue du temps perdu Je ne sais plus je ne suis plus là bas Là bas là bas Se souvenir et se mentir L'avenir ouvre grand ses griffes, ne laisse pas de traces Surpasser le vent qui passe et vivre C'est sûr, c'est ce qui m'attendra là bas Là bas là bas Le bruit du train et le parfum des grands vins Se rappellent à moi, je les sens je les vois Les parfums trempés des chênes, des cerisiers Ô tous les délices qu'on a, là bas Là bas là bas Je ne sais pas quand je retournerai là bas Là bas là bas là bas là bas
