God, listen... (Alice Ceylon Cover)

[Lyrics by Karl Layton, the author on German Amazon, [email protected]] [verse] Fuck, God, it was really nice. A good ride through the years. A life long and full of spice. And reason to cry many tears. [scat] [verse] I loved the quiet nights. Loved the wild ones more. Drove a white BMW too fast. Press the gas, my feet became sore. But the fun never last. The cars neither, out go the lights. [chorus] Out out go the lights Good companions die Over are the wild nights The clock doesn't lie [scat, howling] [verse] Don't hold it against me, God, if don't bend my knee. Was never one for kneeling, you see. Had much fun and many a drinking spree Now probably you want to claim me soon You send this ugly bastard, the skeleton guy A fucking angel to gobble me up with a spoon The stinking angel will not be shy. [howling, scat] [verse] But fuck it God, Can we not just turn back time? I remember that crazy spot. That hut in Sosua, after a drink with alcohol and lime. [moaning] [verse] The hut had a devil painted. That guy with the tiger eyes and mouth full of gold He expected I would have fainted. Inside was your son, he said, my soul already sold [crazy laughter] [verse] But I just walked out. Fuck the devil and his sulfur stench. Held my head high and proud. No fucking devil inside, just a lonesome bench. [scat] [verse] But now that Gabriel guy or who is it, You send him soon, I can feel. Hey just give me a bit. Let me connect to that life reel. [verse] Oh let me live a bit longer. My love for you will be stronger. Just a five minutes more. More time with a girl who is not a bore. [howling] [verse] Aaaaaah or say, do you have stuff planned after this? After we receive death's kiss? I pour myself another drink. Waiting for your heavenly wink. [verse, sad voice] The walls are closing in So many dreams already in the bin. But the clock still ticks quite a bit. The fire is still lit. Soooooo see what Gabriel's got. He better have a lot. [fading out] A lot. A lot. A lot [coughing] [scat] [verse] But now that Gabriel guy or who is it, You send him soon, I can feel. Hey just give me a bit. Let me connect to that life reel. [verse] Oh let me live a bit longer. My love for you will be stronger. Just a five minutes more. More time with a girl who is not a bore. [howling] [verse] Aaaaaah or say, do you have stuff planned after this? After we receive death's kiss? I pour myself another drink. Waiting for your heavenly wink. [verse, sad voice] The walls are closing in So many dreams already in the bin. But the clock still ticks quite a bit. The fire is still lit. Soooooo see what Gabriel's got. He better have a lot. [fading out] A lot. A lot. A lot [coughing] After we receive death's kiss? I pour myself another drink. Waiting for your heavenly wink. [verse, sad voice] The walls are closing in So many dreams already in the bin. But the clock still ticks quite a bit. The fire is still lit. Soooooo see what Gabriel's got. He better have a lot.
