Yeah they were absolutely crap...

I'm sure the 'Erikjes' and the 'Markjes' of this world will find a way to diss this stuff.Then again; this is not for them...


Supertramp :

Surely
It's A Long Road
And I am not like other birds of prey
Words Unspoken
Maybe I'm A Beggar

I ain't got too much money, I ain't got too much sense
Long ago I had a dream but that's no recompense
My father was a blind man, my brother was a fool
My mother told me "God is love"
But hatred makes the rules

Teach me to fly
So I shan't drag my feet in the sand
Give me the sky
I would take the whole world in my hand

World, don't you tell me
I cannot last forever
Before you know I'll come and go
And make you if I can

Maybe I'm a beggar, just check your sympathy
They throw away their gentle love
And keep their pain for me

Can we be free, in a world where to love is to own?
Well when will we see, that a man must face life all alone?

Maybe I'm a beggar, just check your sympathy
They throw away their gentle love
and keep their pain for me

Teach me to fly
So I shan't drag my feet in the sand
Give me the sky
I would take the whole world in my hand

Can we be free, in a world where to love is to own?
Well when will we see, that a man must face life all alone?

Home Again

Many is the time that a dream has gone wrong
When you're with me
Many is the time when the blame went to you
Please forgive me
But the truth is my friend
That the world isn't quite as I thought it to be
Oh no, I wish I were back home again
Oh no, I wish I were back home again
Oh no, I wish I were back home again
La la la , I wish I were back home again

Nothing To Show

Nothing to show beyond the fevered head
Body so warm within his perfumed bed
Sleeping alone the shadow of a man
His will ties into an empty can
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been

Putting his hand upon a changing breast
Many the empty hopes his lips caress
Sorry to say his days are spent in vain
Chasing a dream of doom and nights ahead
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been

Shadowing nights and memories of the grave
Gentle my love and sweetness sometimes saved
Pick up these times and hide his crimes unknown
Only a fool can see his soul has grown
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been

Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been
Nothing to show for love has never been 

Shadow Song
Try Again
Surely\
Aries

I try to run in a different race
But every time I seem to lose faith
Making it is hard, but taking is easy
But I got to keep trying to lessen my pace
Oh, dubidaidai, dubidaidaidada...

I try to walk down a city street
I say hello to the people I meet
They're walking their way, thinking I'm crazy
But I have so much trouble just keeping the beat

Well my way of life is simple
'Cause I just do what I please
Whatever I was blessed with
It wasn't a life of peace
It's all right, yeah, here she comes

Oh, maybe I'm just a country boy
The city life will bring me no joy
Well it's bringing me down, it's making me lonely
You see I'm fooling with life and it ain't no toy

Well my way of life is simple
'Cause I just do what I please
And whenever I got problems
I just call upon Aries

All right yeah
Here she comes
Here she comes

 Sister Moonshine

Ooo-when I was a small boy,
Well, I could see the magic in a day,
But, now I'm just a poor boy,
Well, maybe it's the price you have to pay,
If you lock your dreams away
If no-one wants to listen.

What's the story,
I wish I'd been a minstrel,
Just think of all the maidens I could call,
Oh-I wish I'd been a gypsy,
Then maybe I could read the crystal ball,
'Cause surrounded by these walls,
Just makes me feel uneasy.

I said hey, Sister Moonshine
Won't you send me a little sun
I said hey, Sister moonshine
Who's a stranger to everyone.

So, -MAKE US ALL LAUGH-
Make us all cry
-MAKE US ALL GIVE-
Make us all try
Give us a secret, show us the light,
Well, strike up the music, light up the sky.

Mmm-If I was a lion,
Well, I could be the king off all the plains,
Mmm-If is was an eagle,
Well, maybe I could fly above the rains,
Oh, fly above the pain
But, I know I'm only foolin'

I said hey, Sister Moonshine,
Won't you send me a little sun,
I said hey, Sister Moonshine,
Who's a stranger to everyone.

So, -MAKE US ALL LAUGH-
Make us all cry,
-MAKE US ALL GIVE-
Make us all cry,
I said hey, Sister Moonshine
I said hey, Sister Moonshine,
I said hey, said hey
I said hey, I said hey Sister Moonshine.

For all those people who THINK they know Supertramp...
