1.	Fashion Police (Version 2012) 04:03	lyrics
The Fashion Police placed under arrest everyone I know Put a price on your head, they're coming to town just to get you Don't let them fool you with a nickname and a tattoo They just keep digging for more oil and less ideas They lie about their past, make up pretty stories to be noticed The taste in their mouth has the flavor of their last spring break They keep pretending to be someone they will never be Keep giving pleasure to that uninspired society yeah, yeah, uh uh yeah, uh uh yeah The Fashion Police placed under arrest everyone I know All singing, all dancing, dress them up like hipsters from head to toe Teach them how to deliver the goods to the industry Always pretending to be someone they will never be More oil, More oil More oil, More oil More oil, More oil More oil, More oil More oil, More oil More oil, More oil

3.	A Pleasant Evening (Version 2012) 02:41	lyrics
It was built in the sexties, it’s not far away from town A fireplace for a pleasant evening, come into my stomping ground If privacy is your thing, this is the perfect place A fireplace for a pleasant evening, I can’t wait to see your face There’s an attic and a basement, let me show you around the house Come on, you need to see the garden, there’s a pool to fool around I told you the view was outstanding, the moon is far above the hills You were born in the 80’s, I hope you’ll go for thrills and chills How could I have known, that your one and only plan was a safety zone called retirement.
4.	How Far Away Is The Moon From The Sun? (Version 2012) 03:07	lyrics
If you want to see the desert in the sun, The blood red of the sky, the orange of the sand Nothing else but dust on this bed of iron, still another gold rush is starting on How far away is your moon from the sun? Where will all your money go once your feeding the ground? You said the world was flat like animals were dumb, Now you string along with the bees on the run In for a penny, in for a pound, Rocky mountains are your back up plan So if you long to be there, boarding is at gate 751 Two moons under the moonlight Empty seas and crystal walls Pioneers of Martian Life Life is always greener on the other side How far away is your moon from the sun? Tell me how blue is your sea? How yellow is your sun? How far away is your moon from the sun? Where will all your money go once you’re feeding the ground? How far away is your moon from the sun? I hope your trip will be worthwhile, to the back of beyond Two moons under the moonlight Empty seas and purple grass Pioneers of Martian Life Life is always greener on the other side
5.	Go to Bombay! (Version 2012) 03:24	lyrics
I really hope you go there, before you turn 45 You got a head and heartache for quite some time It will get better some day with someone else along the way Been there, done that, when your hideaway is your flat It’s time to go outside but take it slow Time to see the world, time to grow ‘cause you’re sad all together lonely for diner, home alone for the summer Now it’s time for us to say goodbye, Go to Bombay or Shangai! and then come back to yourself and to your soul Traveling into your true soul Now it’s time for us to let you go, go, go until you know, know, know … You’ll go out dancing until the sun is shining then you’ll have breakfast by the pier, sleep all day until the next evening Join the navy, be a sailor, see the world around the corner The waves will wash away the pain, wash away the grief and the grievance Oh you’ll get to meet all kind of freaks What got you down is just boredom ‘cause you, you’ve got a heart made for loving You’ve got eyes screaming “I need adventure!” and a face made for dreaming Then you’ll come back, feeling sad all together missing the arms of your lover, still lonely for supper Although you had a special time, both in UK and Shangaï It’s time to come back to yourself and your household
6.	Mixing You With Champagne (Version 2012) 03:39	info
7.	Back to The 50's (Version 2012) 03:04	lyrics
You turned fifteen in your twenties, when most become adult at about that same age That’s when you operated your first suicide mission, sending your first missiles to yourself Your strategy : a never ending crisis Weapons used : endless dismissal Diplomatic immunity has not yet reached your galaxy Then, as the great depression started, you took the road with your backpack of mess And that’s when i met you, fighting like a teenager out of time But life is already spent before we know what it's about I wanted to see you win over that cold war with yourself The world is an unperfect place and all the best girls were taken A serious threat to peace you are a serious threat to peace You’re getting older as you speak getting older as you speak But one day you’ll find out that this was just a bad episode from your life, one of these jobs everyone gets before getting the role of their lives
8.	Side by Side (Version 2012) 02:15	lyrics
We don't really know what we're looking for, we're afraid to fail, not afraid to fall And as we keep you up,we'll bring you down We live each day like it's our last and slowly drift away from what we call our past And every night, we go to sleep in different arms for them to keep ourselves away from memories, from the ones we love and from the things we did And side by side, we sleep around, we drift away all over town.
9.	The Cantina of Despair (Version 2012) 02:03	lyrics
"Earn your daily bread", they say "Drinks and treats will come your way" There's bread and butter in the air, in the Cantina of Despair Will work for food in my own time : as late as possible So much to do, so little time before I get too old Grow and bloom my little thoughts! My heavenly brainchild! There's bread and butter in the air, in the Cantina of Despair "Their food program is out of place for souls over 21 grams Slaving away too many years is not the norm for a gourmet of life" Grow and bloom my little thoughts! Grow and bloom my heavenly brainchild!
10.	The Cult of Less (Version 2012) 04:01	lyrics
Get in! It’s a crypt and it’s a joint, It’s life without a map The meal is on the house, the password is “neon” It’s located by the sea, it’s hidden in the woods It’s right over the hill, all roads lead to Rome Get in when you’re over and done with standard living in your town called Nadasville, The cult of less It is based upon a very simple scheme The cult of less is nothing more than the new deal cause less is more than the shadow of happiness brought to you by color paper printed money The cult of less is here to stay cause obviously money cannot buy everything Right on, they’re just a bunch of kids, but kids make a dangerous crowd Honest as the day is long, they say no to overtime And often they go out, and sometimes they have fun Drinking like it is their job, embracing oblivion (The cult of less) It is based upon a very simple scheme The cult of less is nothing more than the new deal cause less is more than the shadow of happiness brought to you by color paper printed money They will carve your name in wood and take your breath away Make an upgrade on your karma, with pleasure make you stay It’s a crypt and it’s a joint, it’s life without a map The meal is on the house, the password is neon (eon, eon, eon) The cult of less is here to stay ‘cause obviously money can’t buy everything
