"how does it feel to be the master's right hand nose How does it feel to be lieutenant How does it feel to be stood on someone's toes With a leech bleeding you for rent, When you say you want a bit more rank You wanna be a big wheel You can feel magnified if you hide in your pride... but it's not real"

lyrics

The last laugh (w & m: mats regen) if you hurt someone you love and not one of your words could ever make amends if your best was not enough and as always you know there won’t be a second chance if a raincloud spits you out and it seems that your clothes will never get dry again then this time your life has struck you hard but the last laugh will be yours if the girl you still love too much is gonna marry this man and will bear him his daughters if the friend you entrusted your dreams sold them for ten pence the pound to the slaughters if your nights are much too cold and no blanket could stop your heart from trembling then, my friend, this life has struck you down but the last laugh will be yours and if there’s no one by your side who can tell you a joke that makes you smile again then this time your life has struck you down but the last laugh will be yours

TRACK 11 - Everything's Made For Love (Gene Austin) 04:45
lyrics
buy track
Oh, you passed your baby days still you've got those baby ways You're as bashful every time when I'm with you oh you're fond of me, you say still you keep me far away oh why can't we love just like other sweethearts, too? What have we got lips for? What have we got arms for? Why do we have stars above? Oh you know- I know: Everything's made for love What have we got eyes for? What do we sigh sighs for? Why do we say:“Dovey Dove“? Oh you know- I know: Everything's made for love What is the dark for? What is the park for? And our shady lanes? Why is the cosy corner so rosy every time it rains? What have I got you for? What have you got me for? What are we both thinking of? For You know- I know: Everything's made for love Why do we have preachers? Why do we have teachers? Why do we have weddings, too? For You know- I know: Everything's made for love What is the gold band for? What is the best man for? Why do we all say: "I do" ? For You know- I know: Everything's made for love What are men slayed for? What are they saved for? And when Cupid calls why do we go and spend all of our dough to see Niagara Falls Why do we keep crying? Why do we keep sighing? Why do we say:“Dovey Dove“? For You know- I know: Everything's made for love What is the dark for? What is the park for? And why our shady lane? Why is the cosy corner so rosy every time the rain stops falling? What have I got you for? What have you got me for? What are we both thinking of? For You know- I know: Everything's made for love

about

plus one original song.

Original artists include
Roland Satterwhite, Ian Fisher, Breaking The Bell Jar, Jona Byron, Roy Harper, Broadcast, The Divine Comedy & The Aristocats.

The CD was meant as a special gift for my friends and wonderful fans, so I decided only to release it in a very small number of 50.

THEY ARE ALL SOLD OUT NOW.

The complete album is available for download here again after ten years.

So now - take your chance again. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

some years ago this odd but gentle troubadour and storyteller who is aka "our blanket skies" went out for a long walk and didn't even write a postcard. For once he wrote a few new tunes in the meanwhile and is looking forward to present them to you as soon as he's finished the dishes. ... more
