Jennifer Jupiter Absolutely brilliant. Unconventional melodies and structures, great playing, full of surprises. Not to mention lots of Mats! Damn! For fans of Mats/Morgan, Zappa etc, very recommended, 5 stars.

Bridges passing by above my head It’s afternoon and it’s getting dark Sailing with my dog Mystical waves in my mind In the shadows something shines Angel eyes (Angel eyes see me) Sounds of wing flaps echoing to the moon Waves of sorrow shine in my dogs eyes Seems that we are in a silent film Raindrops on his nose falling down in to my guitar Water lilies guide our way Where to I (where to I don’t know) When are we supposed to come home again See no future in my hands today is a lovely day because it’s raining My dog is barking wild I wake up, the boat is upside down Oh my god I think we’re drowning in the air, to the moon, in the afternoon

Walking slow it’s a sunny day All my friends are put in chains They woke us up in the middle of the night I wonder why they take us so far away from home so far away from home, far away Walking slow it’s a sunny day Going to a secret place Yesterday, life was good with fun and games in the river Yesterday, life was good, so good We teach our children not to be afraid but now we’ll never hear them cry Dreaming, seeing how the elephants were dancing wild to the drums Sweat and blood and many tears Nothing to eat on this ship for weeks Down in the dark we’re dying in our chains When will this journey end what will happen to the world in the future, maybe someday we can come home again Our fathers taught us never to give up Our mothers stories turned into dreams Dreaming, seeing how the elephants were dancing wild to the drums I thought I was dead, but I survived only to become a slave full time I hope someone told me I was only dreaming

Haircut 05:22
Someone told me that my hair´s too long I should have cut it a long time ago, yeah Got to straighten up but have no time I have no time I was sweating in my raincoat missing out the sunshine I was sweating in, in the sun I didn´t notice it was snowing standing in my t-shirt I was freezing in, in my tee He told me I should write a song for you And counting 1,2,3,4 is a start Looking for another dimension will buy some extra time for me Looking for some time, extra time My long hair is getting in the way cause I can´t see you Getting in the way, I can´t see It´s gonna be 4/4 now Someone told me that my hair´s too long I should have cut it a long time ago Maybe last winter, summer, springtime only reminds me of yesterday Got to straighten up but have no time Three kids on the block and every sock is washed and I just longing for summer, winter and springtime reminds me of yesterday You have to chill, fly away to Brazil Then you go to the beach Lots of fun, time to run home again Looking for some time, extra time Looking for some time, extra time I think you know this is the end Lalalalalala

Sad City 03:21
There is a silent sadness Empty streets every store closing down Where is all the fun? Everyone moving out seeking desperately for joy and happiness in their loneliness They totally forgot where they came from what they´re doing where they heading in the future No one to ask The lights just went out you know In the old days there was friendship and inventions too Reading learning Telling stories Always helping out (Now it´s all gone and never coming back) Where are the children? Where is the playfulness? Somewhere behind the secret door someone knows what to do

What are you doing You better keep on moving to other places where you feel more safe Help you almost lost it Yes, it’s like be put in prison except you never gonna be alone again I, I want a dog a little dog Help me if you can I´m lost in this illusion that I created for years (I want a dog a little dog) I´m lost (Poodle doodle smackeli noodle) Come to me Out in the morning Smell everywhere you go inside Begging at the dinner table, voff I, I want a dog I want a dog that bites Help me if you can I´m lost (I want a dog) (Help me help me) Help him if you can He wants a little dog that bites him now Illusion This will bring me clarity

Why depressed, summertime is warmer than before Surf the wave, you don’t need no bathing suit anymore You’re sitting by the pool and you think it’s okay, where´s my drink? But your waiter is now running away to fight the fire, it’s closing in and the village might start burning down (it might start burning down) No fish is to be seen in the oceans today just plastic bags Maybe you can recycle all the shit to build some boats, from where you can observe if fish is coming back again, summertime is warmer than before Surf the wave, you don’t need no bathing suit anymore The whales and sharks are seasick Ice is melting down in front of your eyes is blinded by the sun The world is moving faster now as you can see on your phone Try to comprehend what is going on On a big scale there is an enemy Yes! Commercial industry (Commercial industry) As long as there are profits to make you are screwed, all the time Put the bandits in jail and we can sing Mother nature try to forgive us we’re absolutely sorry that summertime is warmer than before Come along, join us with your bicycle don’t be late Don’t be late
