last night was the science-fiction
movie with you and me
you in your velvet space-helmet
me in my rainbow hat

if you'd write my lines
I would gladly play father-time on your tv-show
you got the wilderniss lipstick
and I got the penmarking

you are great, yeah you're a star
someday everyone will know
who you are
everyone will know
who I am

it's morning in heaven, again
LA is lost in the clouds
so I sings goodbye skylines
and I will sadly sing you off to our next episode
I'll make the most of my time, machine
and I'll build a theremin

you'll be great, you'll be a star
someday everyone will know
who you are
everyone will know
who I am
everyone will know
who they are

may you climb high
into the sky
may ratings rise

once I learn these lines
I will madly sing lullabies
into the unborn fans
you write the bible and I'll
read it off my eyelids

and we'll be great, yeah we'll go far
someday everyone will know
who you are
everyone will know
who I am
everyone will know
who they are
who you are
everyone will know
who I am
everyone will know
who they are

last night was the science-fiction
movie with you and me
you in your velvet space-helmet
me in my rainball hat

    Thanks!

    Rainbow probably was more likely to be right, but it sounded like rainball to me.

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
