Songtexte:

Ich bin wiederholt gefragt worden, um was es in meinen Liedertexten denn gehe. ??? Das jedesmal zu erklären liegt mir nicht, obschon ich mich in der Regel nach Kräften bemühe. Ob das "Gedankengut" bei der kommenden CD - die Aufnahmen stehen fast unmittelbar bevor - zum Nachlesen aufgeführt sein wird, kann ich jetzt ebenso wenig sagen. Sei es wie es sei: Für jene die es wirklich wissen wollen, werde ich in diesem meinem weltinternen Tagebuch in unregelmässigen Abständen einen Songtext bringen.
Angefangen mit den Songs der Mountains To Climb CD, beginne ich mit -
Entertain the Penis und dem Untertitel - Allowed to Drown in Shame, der auf der CD als eigenständiger Song daher kommt, tatsächlich aber immer der zweite Teil von Entertain the Penis gewesen ist. Um mir weitere Worte zu sparen fange ich gleich an, und somit geht das wie folgt:

*ENTERTAIN THE PENIS*
" Two pair of hooves stompin' through the dust
somewhere in Spain, where tradition lasts
a bleeding bull defends his life with rage
that so called "game" contains miserable pain.
*
It is a fact; the bull is dead
even before these sadists clap their hands
don't take me wrong; that suffering takes time
don't wanna talk about that struttin' guy.
*
don't wanna talk about that struttin' guy...
*
That fucking bullfight's only bullshit
that struttin' guy; give him an asskick
the whole tradition; wish I could shoe it away
there's other games to play.
*
It is a fact; the bull is dead
even before these sadists clap their hands
it makes me sick; to watch him die
there's other games to play!
*
there's other games to play...


*ALLOWED TO DROWN IN SHAME*
... Just do another cardgame
or drink yourself softbrained.
you could take a book and read it
or enter; entertain the penis.
yes entertain the penis
as long as it is a mans -
your allowed to drown in shame
but jump off; jump off that bullfight "game".
*
jump off the bullfight game...
off the bulldoze
jump off the bullfight game!
*
I love the leafes in the morning wind
my eyes; as sharp as they've ever been
can hear the worm digging through the earth
try to avoid what I deserve.
- what I deserve -
*
jump off the bullfight game...
*
Got a good sense of justice
I like to be close - in distance
get a grip on what's unreal
it is the worm; he makes the deal.
- worm makes the deal -
*
jump off the bullfight game... "
