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, when I hold you in my arms
 - you melt away smooth and nice.


Every time you’re in my arms – you melt away smooth and nice.


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.


Oh, you’re an honest girl, you see past all the shiny gold
.

You’re a real tight mamma, you and I can happily grow old
.

‘Cause I can rock you hard lover like no one ever rocked your boat.

Oh yeah!

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

And who calls that living when no girls gonna give in

To no man

Oh, to get into heaven - Don't snap for a seven

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.

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
