<strong>Every</strong> <strong>Dog</strong> <strong>Has</strong> <strong>Its</strong> <strong>Day</strong><br />

Thunder roars and sky is grey<br />

Still you’re hoping to escape<br />

Out of sight and out of mind<br />

May be your goal, but will fail<br />

Only answer for what you say<br />

Not for what they understand<br />

Not for what they see in you<br />

Only you will know your way<br />

REFR<br />

<strong>Every</strong> dog has its day<br />

This day is yours<br />

<strong>Every</strong> dog has its day<br />

Lady Luck may come your way<br />

If opportunity knocks<br />

What will you do when the light’s on you<br />

No chance to get off<br />

Cause when the people claim your soul<br />

Then you’ll be carried away<br />

The mirror showing someone else<br />

You give up, and close your face<br />

REFR<br />

<strong>Every</strong> dog has its day...<br />

Thunder roars and sky is grey<br />

and you’re hoping to escape<br />

Out of sight and out of mind<br />

May be your goal, but will fail<br />

Only answer for what you say<br />

Not for what they understand<br />

Not for what they see in you<br />

Only you will know your way<br />

REFR<br />

<strong>Every</strong> dog has its day...


On My Mind<br />

What I’ve done now my Angel,<br />

You only can blame it on me<br />

The final solution,<br />

The only way to be free<br />

Forever I will ride<br />

Somewhere up in the sky<br />

Don’t wonder why<br />

Just cry a little while, my Angel<br />

This time my love, it is your time to wait<br />

For your tears to get dried<br />

And think it all over and mayby one day,<br />

You will realize<br />

I’m happy I did it at last<br />

Although when I think of our past<br />

You know sometimes,<br />

I wish I still was alive<br />

Help me ny Angel, it’s cold here<br />

And I don’t wanna be free<br />

I love you I do, through it all<br />

And I don’t want your cheek to be wet<br />

But sometimes it comes running<br />

<strong>Every</strong> time as one day dies<br />

The wish, that I,<br />

could follow<br />

You are on my mind<br />

You are on my mind


Here I Stand<br />

Just a simple guy<br />

Trying so hard to be useful<br />

But he’s just getting annoyed<br />

Says: If the joy of work<br />

Is the one joy we’ve been given<br />

Then I have surely been blessed with joy<br />

And the everyday girl<br />

Longing all year for the summer<br />

But each day is just fall<br />

Says: If the rising sun<br />

Is the one true hope we’ve been given<br />

Then the sunset defies it all<br />

Lyrics: Lars Göransson<br />

And there you go,<br />

Searching for my faults and fallacies<br />

You think: This forgives it all<br />

And I remain,<br />

A victim of my hopes and yearnings<br />

I think: She doesn’t hear me call<br />

– hear me call<br />

It’s a working life<br />

Even though some nights are starstruck<br />

Most days are gloomy and grey<br />

And they have a choice<br />

The road leads strictly one way<br />

No matter what they want, or say<br />

And here I stand<br />

Waiting for you to fulfil your promises<br />

You say: I promised nothing at all<br />

And there you are,<br />

Browsing through your calendar<br />

I say: There is no time left,<br />

– no time at all


Angel Eyes<br />

Getting close,<br />

But then worlds drift apart<br />

Negotiations<br />

To the rhythm of my heart<br />

You want, and I say that I will not obey<br />

We´re following a one way street<br />

Although we never<br />

Planned or wished for things this way<br />

REFR<br />

Bridge<br />

And then I see your angel eyes<br />

with tears of deep bereavement<br />

(Yes I see your) angel eyes<br />

always wanting something more<br />

The end may justify the means<br />

But when things aren´t what they seem<br />

The mirror cracks from edge to edge<br />

We´re back on square one, once again<br />

Lyrics: Lars Göransson<br />

The unloved child<br />

<strong>Has</strong> grown into a tyrant<br />

A trying love<br />

Just for perseverance<br />

You want, and I say that I will not obey<br />

We´re following a one way street<br />

Although we never<br />

Planned or wished for things this way<br />

REFR<br />

Bridge<br />

REFR<br />

And then I see your angel eyes...<br />

The end may justify the means...<br />

And then I see your angel eyes...


Out Of This World<br />

This is the strangest story, you have ever heard<br />

I was married to a woman, from out of this world<br />

When I was tired and wanted, to sleep at night<br />

She kept me awake and took me for a flight<br />

To another dimension<br />

She was an ordinary woman as far as I could see<br />

Warm and tender and she cared about me<br />

She was my everything, the light of my life<br />

And for some reason, I thought she was my wife<br />

And that was her intention<br />

REFR<br />

I ride throught the starlight<br />

there´s nothing left but dust<br />

my mind is wild and burning<br />

Here´s no one I can trust<br />

Lyrics: Kée Tengblad<br />

Music: Kée Tengblad<br />

And then one early morning, there´s a knock on my door<br />

When I open it up I´m sluggered down to the floor<br />

Through my bleeding lips I try to whisper ”Why?”<br />

They say ”Shut up sucker, we´re the FBI<br />

And we´ll grab that alien<br />

But she said ”Sorry boys, this is a magic knife”<br />

Before your stupid eyes I´m gonna take my own life”<br />

And to me she said ”Don´t feel any fear”<br />

”I will live in your dreams but I cannot stay here<br />

I will love you forever”<br />

REFR<br />

I ride throught the starlight...<br />

I´ve got to keep on moving, try to get away from here<br />

My future´s behind me but I don´t feel any fear<br />

When I close my eyes I see her fade away<br />

She´s somewhere up in the skies, I couldn´t follow her way<br />

To that other dimension<br />

REFR<br />

I ride throught the starlight...


Darkness At Dawn<br />

Come here baby, sit by my side<br />

My mind is open and the sky is so wide<br />

Talk to me Darling, I hear what you say<br />

I´m willing to listen and I promise to Stay.<br />

I´ve been down, to the bottom line<br />

Been searchin´for truth, I couldn´t find<br />

Nobody decent, could tell it to me<br />

Run for your life or stay here with me<br />

REFR<br />

REFR<br />

Fall down mountains<br />

Fall to the sea<br />

It really doesn´t matter if you fall on me<br />

Come on hurricane<br />

Let your wind blow<br />

Erase my brain from everything I know<br />

Fall down mountains...<br />

Lyrics: Kée Tengblad<br />

Music: Kée Tengblad<br />

© 2013, Tengblad<br />

Been down to the bottom line<br />

I´ve been searchin´for truth, I couldn´t find<br />

No one who could tell it to me<br />

So run for your life or just stay with me


Roll The Dice<br />

Among the very many, that your eyes may have seen<br />

Among the few that your heart did desire<br />

In the parlour of your future dreams so many things did shine<br />

But you closed your eyes and dreamed another dream<br />

With pockets full of dreams and dust, and with idle hands<br />

You claim you had no other road to take<br />

But when you contemplate on where you are<br />

and what you could have been<br />

You know your wise decisions were a fake<br />

So whichever road you choose to take<br />

and whichever field you play<br />

Then know that all you do is roll the dice<br />

You’ll get where your supposed to anyway<br />

Lyrics: Lars Göransson<br />

Music: Lars Göransson<br />

Faith and hope and love are there for you<br />

And we hold all these three to be true<br />

So know that all you do is roll the dice<br />

You’ll get where your supposed to anyway – any day<br />

With pockets full of dreams and dust, and with idle hands<br />

You claim you had no other road to take<br />

But accept that all your hopes and choices all were made in vain<br />

What you get will equal just the love you make


Bothering Me<br />

Took a ride on a runaway train<br />

Don’t know why, was I insane<br />

Took a ride with a rusty car<br />

The ride soon ended but I sure got far<br />

REFR<br />

Don’t know what’s bothering me<br />

Don’t know what’s bothering me<br />

Met some friends in a crowded bar<br />

One wen crazy, gave me a scar<br />

Had a drink with a fluffy dame<br />

The night was warm, but I lacked a flame<br />

REFR<br />

Bridge<br />

Don’t know what’s bothering me<br />

Don’t know what’s bothering me<br />

Well – it’s You<br />

Yes – it’s you<br />

You, the one that is bothering me<br />

Yes, it’s you – the one that is bothering me<br />

Coming home to an unmade bed<br />

Did you ever hear what I said<br />

Coming home to a bitter strife<br />

Still asking: Is this my life?<br />

Coda<br />

You know what’s bothering me<br />

Yes, you know what’s bothering me<br />

You, the one that is bothering me<br />

Yes, it’s you - the one that is bothering me


Blue<br />

Tears of rage, running softly down my cheek<br />

Falling gently to the floor<br />

Always knew it would be more<br />

Of this<br />

Tears of grief, pouring sadly from my eyes<br />

Silently and no wind cries<br />

Washes hardly all your lies<br />

Away<br />

REFR<br />

When I fell down<br />

There was nothing you could do<br />

Tears from a clown<br />

Always feeling blue<br />

Lyrics: Kée Tengblad<br />

Music: Kée Tengblad<br />

Tears of joy, moving quickly across your mind<br />

Don´t do this and don´t do that<br />

Straighten up and don´t look back<br />

For more<br />

REFR<br />

When I fell down...<br />

Tears of rage, running softly down my cheek<br />

Falling gently to the floor<br />

Always knew it would be more<br />

Of this<br />

REFR<br />

When I fell down


Let Me Be<br />

In the light of a summer night<br />

I was flying a free mans kite<br />

But illusive, so illusive was your love<br />

I was missing the thrill<br />

Now all I have is time to kill<br />

Where are you heading – what are we aiming for<br />

REFR<br />

Let me be<br />

Dissolve our ties<br />

Leave in peace,<br />

Without lies<br />

My circles are mine<br />

Don’t disturb them, or change my line<br />

So frail, so fragile am I<br />

See your mind as a shrine<br />

You do that, and you’ll see mine<br />

So frail, so fragile are we<br />

Old Friends<br />

Old friends<br />

Our days passed so quickly<br />

Good friends<br />

Years went so fast<br />

All our hopes for a better day<br />

In a blink became yesterday<br />

In the end, even old friends must part<br />

We’re friends<br />

Trusting and knowing<br />

We’re friends<br />

Feeling secure<br />

With your back up against the wall<br />

Wish that together we could fall<br />

But in the end, even old friends must part<br />

Lyrics: Lars Göransson<br />

Bridge<br />

Bridge<br />

I have no wish to jump the gun<br />

Would stop the cogwheel of time<br />

(if I only could)<br />

But there is nowhere that we can run<br />

When it’s your bells that toll<br />

In the end, even old friends must part<br />

I have no wish to jump the gun...<br />

Farewell<br />

Our days passed so quickly<br />

Farewell<br />

Years went so fast<br />

All our hopes for a better day<br />

In a blink became yesterday<br />

In the end, even old friends must part


Lost (In A Bad Dream Of Mine)<br />

I stumbled<br />

I stumbled and fell<br />

On thoughts that<br />

Came right out of hell<br />

So I´m worried<br />

Don’t know what to do<br />

I´m lost in a bad dream of mine<br />

My nights are<br />

So desperate and dark<br />

My days go<br />

Without a spark<br />

So I´m troubled<br />

Don’t know what to do<br />

I´m lost in a bad dream of mine<br />

Lyrics: Lars Göransson<br />

Music: Carl-Johan Melin<br />

Bridge<br />

Looking over my shoulder<br />

seeing days and people gone by<br />

They carry the answer<br />

to this riddle: who am I<br />

My life goes<br />

I´m stuck in my past<br />

I´ll carry it<br />

As long as I´ll last<br />

So I´m worried<br />

Don’t know what to do<br />

I´m lost in a bad dream of mine<br />

Bridge<br />

Coda<br />

Looking over my shoulder...<br />

I stumbled<br />

I stumbled and fell<br />

On thoughts that<br />

Came right out of hell<br />

Thoughts that came right out of hell


You’re Fired<br />

You may think you’re cool<br />

When your drooling with greed, all over my books<br />

But you´re just a monkey in a suit, with too much cologne,<br />

A red tapist that´s really a crook<br />

You´re an upstart who even managed to<br />

Fuck up your own name....<br />

– You’re fired!<br />

You came with a fancy style<br />

With your nose in the air and claimed you could run the show<br />

But you were a Babbitt at best,<br />

A rat like the rest, behind the facade a John Doe<br />

No smug attitude or cheating lies<br />

Will get you out of this....<br />

– You´re fired!<br />

Lyrics: Lars Göransson<br />

Music: Carl-Johan Melin<br />

© 2013, Melin, Göransson<br />

Bridge<br />

This will hurt you more than it will hurt me<br />

You can rest assured<br />

I am so pleased to be able to tell you this:<br />

– You´re fired!<br />

I see your your cunning ways<br />

And slippery smile, your insolence is a disgrace<br />

And for your guile statements, your low down ways<br />

They will splash back in your face<br />

There is no sweet talk to help you now,<br />

Never more at my side...<br />

– You´re fired!<br />

Bridge<br />

This will hurt you more than it will hurt me...
