UNEXPECTED
GUEST
(7" Version)
And as the clock
strikes thre
e But no afternoon tea
This is morning
All wealth yawning
And you dreamÉ
(repeat)
Oblivious to
my scheme
WhoÕll set the test
For your Unexpected Guest
And as your Unexpected
Guest
Your hospitality
Was the best
Oh Englishman
Your castle threatened
Your privacy wrecked
Your wealth lessened
And still he dreamsÉ
A midnight surprise
Only for you eyes
Your Unexpected Guest
Oh but I could
have touched your shoulder
If I were bolderÉ
The stranger in the bedroom
The air would turn colder.
DRESDEN
Dresden baby
WhereÕs the lesson to learn
No source of reference
All your evidence burnt
Ashes Ð cinders they fall
But no midnight deadlines
For your ball
Because youÕre waiting
Oh, still waiting
No witness left
The walls now deaf
No witness left
To testify
Testify
WhoÕll testify?
Against your war crimes
And theyÕre waiting
Oh, still waiting
Feeling for the cause
Hands raised please
The lemmings fall
To take the call
To sleep with ease
Stranger in danger
Calls aid to his side
He calls for a good Samaritan
A protection of pride
The war, the spoils
From cold turns to boil
And weÕre waiting
Oh still waiting.
The epitaph
The charred terrain
The board wiped clean
To try and start,
TheyÕll start again
Playing your war games
And weÕre waiting
Oh still waiting
TheyÕre feeling
For the cause
Hands raised please
The lemmings fall
To take the call
So sleep with ease
1980 Germany
1980 Germany
Time moves on
Predictions proved
Wrong Ð again
1980 Germany
And IÕm still waiting.
