THE DEVIL IS REAL IN YOUR MIND
(words & music: Eike Moriz 07.09.13 )
The devil is real in your mind
Oh, the devil is real in your mind
If you buy into them stories old and new
The devil is real in your mind
The devil is real in your mind
Oh, you read those stories from the liars
Well, you read those stories from the liars
Oh, if you read those stories from the liars
The devil is real in your mind
The devil is real in your mind
Oh, the teachers told me he is real
Yeah, the preachers told me he is real
If you buy into, into their fear
Oh, the devil is real in your mind
Yes, the devil is real in your mind
Oh, the devil is real in your mind, yeah!
If you read those stories from the liars
Oh, if you listen to the liars
If you read those stories from the liars
Oh, if you listen to the liars
The devil is real in your mind

TO CAPE TOWN
(words & music by Eike Moriz 2013)
You wanna see the ‚Mother City’ way down,
Buy your ticket, pack your bags and your best gowns.
Lose your frown and get down to Cape Town.
Fly over Egypt, Central Africa and Zim,
Much easier than slaving at the gym
Lose your frown and get down: To Cape Town.
Now you land and drive on the N2 in style,
You pass Kayelitsha and Guguletu in a while.
You see townships, crossing goats and racing cars,
Mountain views, mighty oceans and the brightest stars.
Sell your shares, rip up your plastic and get hip:
When you take a risk and make that south-bound trip
Lose your frown, get down to Cape Town.
Sell your shares, rip up your plastic & get hip:
When you take a risk & make that south-bound trip
Lose your frown, get down to Cape Town.
Oh, sell your shares, rip up your plastic and get hip:
When you take a risk a make that south-bound trip
And lose your frown, get down to Cape Town.
Lose your frown, get down to Cape Town.
Oh, lose your frown, get down to Cape Town.

SMOOTH & NICE
(Words & music by Eike Moriz 7.9.13)
You’re my sweet woman - I can’t believe you’re for real.
You’re my sweet mamma - I can’t believe that you’re real.
Oh, that you want me only - is a lot for me to deal!
Oh, I'm your ‘jack of all trades’ – I push your buttons right,
Oh, I am your rocket man - I’ll treat you right all night.

Oh, all my exes they are crying – cause you and I we fit so nice.
Oh, you’re the first girl in my life that does me smooth and nice.

AT LAST
(words & music by Mack Gordon & Harry Warren)
At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song.
Oh, yeah, at last the skies above are blue.
My heart was wrapped up in clovers,
The night I looked at you
I found a dream that I could speak to,
A dream that I can call my own.
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to,
A thrill that I have never known.
Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile
Oh, and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last.
I found a dream that I could speak to,
A dream that I can call my own.
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to,
A thrill, oh, that I have never known.
Oh, when you smile, you smile
Oh, and then, then the spell was cast
And here, here we are in heaven
For you are mine at last.
SEÑORITA BLUES
(words & music by Horace Silver, additional lyrics & changes by Ike Moriz - marked in bold font)
Señorita Blues is what they call her,
Way down Argentina way
Señors fallin' for her,
With the hope that she will stay
By the time that they love her,
Señorita Blues done gone away
Well she's hot and good lookin'
And she always knows just what to say
Oh, she's hot and good lookin'
And she always knows just what to say
By the time that they love her,
Oh, Señorita Blues done, gone away
Oh, she always comes out of nowhere
And once she's there, there's nowhere
To run, run, run from her.
She always comes out of nowhere
And once she's there, oh, there's just nowhere,
Nowhere, nowhere.
You can run, you can run, you can't run.
You can run, you can run, you can't run.
You can run, you can run, you can't run.
Señorita Blues.

THIS COULD BE LOVE
(words & music by Eike Moriz 09.05.2013)
There were many others
Felt something that could have been
Begged, stole and borrowed
Just saw what should have been
This time something’s wrong
This time I hear no song
This time I feel this could be real,
This could be love. (Love, Love, Love)
This could be love (Love, Love, Love)
Oh, this could be love (Love, Love, Love, ooooh-ooooh)
So many stories...
And all of them are true.
Everyone believes in their stories
Yet none of them is you.
This time it’s all new
This time the story is you
This time I feel, oh, this could be real,
This could be love (Love, Love, Love).
This could be love (Love, Love, Love)
Oh, this could be love (Love, Love, Love, ooooh-ooooh)
Oh, this could be love (Love, Love, Love)
Yeah, this could be love (Love, Love, Love)
Oh, this could be love (Love, Love, Love, ooooh-ooooh)
This could be love (Love, Love, Love)
Yes, this could be love (Love, Love, Love)
Oh yeah, this could be love (Love, Love, Love, ooooh-ooooh)

FOREVERMORE
((c)(p) 27.08.2013 words & music by Eike Moriz)
So many years, so many places,
So many tears, so many faces
And yet I made it through,
Oh, sweet love.
So many fears, so many ideas,
So much confusion, so much disillusion
And yet I made it here,
I finally came to see:
That all I ever was and all I’ll ever be is always here,
That all I ever was and all I’ll ever be is always here:
Right here, right now. Forevermore!
So many fears, so many ideas,
So much confusion and so much disillusion
And yet I made it here, I finally came to see:
That all I ever was and all I’ll ever be is always here,
That all I ever was and all I’ll ever be is always here:
Right here, right now. Forevermore!
Oh, that all I ever was and all I’ll ever be is always here,
Oh, yes, That all I ever was and all I’ll ever be is always here:
Right here, right now. Forevermore!

DISILLUSION BLUES
(Words & music by Eike Moriz)
There’s no such thing as fairness
There must be other plans for us.
No existence of justice
Our laws just build walls between us.
There’s no such thing as freedom
From the results of our deeds.
No easy way in or out of this life
No escape from our needs.
Oh, the breeze in the lumbering trees
Whispers eternal truths
Oh, I can’t deceive you or me anymore
There’s no such thing as peace
In a way we’re waging war every day.
Hatred and violence won’t ever cease
Just take a ride on the nearest highway.
There’s nothing left but surrender
Pick myself up and tie my own shoes.
Join my club of the mind bender
And sing the Disillusion Blues.
Oh, the breeze in the lumbering trees
It whispers eternal truths
Oh, I can’t deceive you or me anymore
There’s nothing left but surrender
Pick myself up and tie my own shoes.
Join my club of the mind bender
And sing the Disillusion Blues.
Oh, the breeze in the lumbering trees
Oh, it whispers eternal truths
Oh, I can’t deceive you or me anymore
There’s nothing left but surrender
Pick myself up and tie my own shoes.
Join my club of the mind bender
And sing the Disillusion Blues.
And sing the Disillusion Blues.

UNTIL THEIR LIGHTS ARE OUT (ALIEN BLUES)
((c)(p) 26.09.13 words & music by Eike Moriz)
I fell out of the sky,
At least that would make some kinda sense.
I fell into this river of lies,
Looking for someone to help me understand.
Why, people chasing their tails, day in day out,
Stepping on each other’s dreams,
Trying to buy something that can’t be bought,
Until their lights are out.
I came into this world,
Eyes wide open, observing all my space,
Every time I thought I got it, I just got my mind in a whirl,
Nothing made sense about this race.
Grabbing and hoarding stuff, day in day out,
Afraid of life and death and yet running on without pause,
Lying, stealing and killing in the name of whatever suits the cause,
Until their lights are out.
Grabbing and hoarding stuff, day in day out,
Afraid of life and death and yet running on without pause,
Lying, stealing and killing in the name of whatever suits the cause,
Until their lights are out.
Oh, yes.
Until their lights are out.

THINK I’M A MILLIONAIRE
(words & music: Eike Moriz 07.09.13)
Those model-hotties, they don't love me
They don’t mean a thing to me
Those model-hotties just don’t get me
They don’t mean a thing to me
They are the craziest women that I have ever seen.
They wear high-heeled peak-a-toes
Their whole vibe is barbie-plastic
They wear high-heeled peak-a-toes
Their whole vibe is barbie-plastic
Yet sometimes they stare me over
Think I’m a millionaire – fantastic.
Plastic girls will make you sell your grandma
Make you sell your life & soul
Those plastic girls make you sell your grandma
They’ll make you sell your life & soul
Temptress will make you do those things
That make you feel empty like a whole!
Yet sometimes there comes an angel
Who appears once in a million years
Yet sometimes there’s an angel
She appears once in a million years
That angel will simply love you
Wether you are or wether you ain’t a millionaire.
The right girl will stand by you
She will take you by the hand
Yes, the right girl simply stands by you
Holding your heart in her loving hands!
After all those years of sorrow
She won’t care if you are if you ain’t a millionaire.
THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS
(words & music: Eike Moriz 2013)
You’ve seen it all, you’ve heard it all,
You’ve felt it all, you’ve smelled it all.
You’ve seen it all, oh, you’ve touched it all,
You’ve sniffed it all, you’ve smoked it all.
BUT THESE ARE NOT YOURS, OH, THESE ARE NOT YOURS
THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS, THESE ARE NOT YOURS
All that counts in the end, my friend:
Can you extend your love to embrace us all?
Or will you fall?
You’ve seen it all, you’ve heard it all.
You’ve felt it all, you’ve smelled it all.
You’ve seen it all, you’ve touched it all.
Oh, you’ve sniffed it all and you’ve smoked it all.
BUT THESE ARE NOT YOURS, OH, THESE ARE NOT YOURS
THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS, THESE ARE NOT YOURS
But if all that you’ve learnt is only there
To make you feel better about yourself
And disregard the rest, then:
THESE ARE NOT YOURS, THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS
THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS, THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS
THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS, THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS
THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS, THESE EYES ARE NOT YOURS

IT AIN’T NECESSARILY SO

He fought big Goliath who just laid down and dieth ,
Little David might have been small, but, oh my !
Well, it ain’t necessarily so,
No, it ain’t necessarily so
The things that you’re liable to read in the bible
They ain’t necessarily so
Oh, Now Jonah, he lived in a whale
They say old Jonah, he lived in a whale
Now he made his home in that fish’s abdomen
Oh, Jonah, resided in a whale
Oh, to get into heaven - Don't snap for a seven
I'll live fresh, have my faults
Oh, I’ll take that gospel whenever it's possible with a grain of salt
Oh, they say Methuselah lived nine hundred years

And who calls that living when no girls gonna give in
To no man ,

Oh, I'll live fresh, have my faults
Oh, I’ll take that gospel whenever it's possible with a grain,
Oh, a grain of salt!
They say little Moses was found in a stream,
Little Moses, he was found in a stream,
He floated on water till ole Pharaoh's daughter
Fished him, she says, from that stream!
But it ain’t necessarily so, no, it ain’t necessarily so
They tell all your children that the devil, he’s a villain
But it ain’t necessarily so ,
No, it ain’t necessarily so
No, it ain’t, it ain't necessarily so!

HOUND DOG
(by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller)
You ain't nothing but a hound dog cryin' all the time,
You ain't nothing but a hound dog cryin' all the time.
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit and you ain't no friend of mine.
Well, they said you was high class, well, that was just a lie,
When they said you was high class, well that was just a lie.
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit and you ain't no friend of mine.
When they said you was high class, well that was just a lie,
When they said you was high class, oh, that was just a lie.

GEORGIA ON MY MIND
(by Hoagy Carmichael, STUART GORRELL)
Oh, Georgia, Georgia, the whole day through
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind.
I'm sayin’ Georgia, oh, sweet Georgia, A song of you
Comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines.
Other arms may reach out to me
Other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
Oh, the road leads back to you
Oh, Georgia, oh Georgia, No peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind
Other arms may reach out to me
Oh, other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
Oh, the road, that road that leads back to you, oh you!
Georgia, no peace, no peace I find
Just an old, an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind
Georgia on my mind
Oh, it keeps Georgia on my mind.

YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE
( by Charles Mitchell, Jimmie Davis, Oliver Hood )
You are my sunshine my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know dear how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
The other night dear as I laid sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
But when I awoke dear, oh, I was mistaken
So I hung my head and cried
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know dear how much I love you
Oh, please don't take, don't take my sunshine away
Oh, you are my sunshine my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know dear how much I love you
So, please don't take my sunshine away
Oh, please don't take my sunshine away !
