Desert Song 04:26
Somewhere out in the desert I'm trying to find myself with some thorn-up paper I'm writing a letter to hell Well I feel so humble on the old man's river I would give my last crumble for a cocaine shiver I choose the white love above the brown sugar Somewhere out in the distance I saw a shimmering light I hope you'll be my best friend and let me inside I choose the white love above the brown sugar Show me the way to your galaxy show me the shiny stars I hope I won't get addicted to the speed of racing car I choose the white love above the brown sugar

Plastic Girl 04:32
Skinny bones on the catwalk trying to please you and me Sniffing cocaine in the backstage They look so nice from outer space So if I would ever have the chance To start a new romance With pictures of a fashion magazine or with some beauty queen I guess I would say thank you no but maybe that's not true Cause if we are really honest we like woman like you Plastic girl, please don't melt down Plastic woman, you gonna melt down Plastic woman with plastic faces Plastic woman with plastic braces Plastic woman with plastic aces C'mon, Glamour-glimmer-beauty sinner Giving us platonic love Touched from the man above us with his golden glove
3.
Mother 05:15
Mother, will you let me starve tonight Mother, I can't choose between wrong and right Mother, will you be my guide tonight Ooh well, do not cry because I see some angels by my side Mother, sorry that I ain't that strong Mother, I like places where I do not belong Ooh well, I got a beautiful brother so you have to carry on All the love I felt in my short life is gonna keep me warm in my deep and lonely grave Thank you for your rescue mother so many times from the city
4.
Intermezzo 01:42
There's a blue light burning, above your bedroom door, a sign to stay out to visit the liquor store Awake you young girl, from your beautiful sleep there's a friend of mine you got to meet See the holy crucifix hanging around my neck to protect like Joan of Arc of a lightning spark Baby blue what am I suppose to do to chance that costume of you Please take my beautiful hand show me the promised land and let me hear your brand new sound breath it in breath it out hit me hard I won't shout
5.
I do believe in all the things that seem to have no reason So give me something to rely on I do believe in you cause I can hurt with no reason Don't ask me why, I would deny and lie Just like the catholic church the holy pope and their followers See them living in fear the urge to disappear Set the world on fire I do believe in all the things that seem to have no reason So give me something to rely on Just like the law in this town the king and his crown and all the uniformed man They choose and abuse, have nothing to loose Set the world on fire, have mercy on the liar
6.
Why don't you give me 4 gallons of gasoline And I will burn for you like a forest fire Why don't you give me a overdose of that nicotine I'll be addicted to you until the morning hour So please forgive me for the man I use to be Wrong identity, no dignity, that self fulfilling prophecy Why don't you take me oooh, to that promised open field and stab that wooden stick into my heart and twist it all around tonight She's a queen of the night so let light shine on your face Queen-queen Queen of the night Shine your light and be our guide So you can take us to a save house where the children can grow up I gonna take you down to the waterline I gonna feed you there with some liquor and some love
7.
400.000 people out on the street carrying white flags to protect your liberty Dancing and feasting Love and victory Are you gonna join them or are you one of us Are you gonna join them Take a step in our bus Ride on driver, ride on driver man Out in the desert with my 400.000 friends Some of them where naked drawing pictures in the sand Eating peyote united hand in hand Are you gonna join them or are you one of us Are you gonna join them Take a step in our bus Ride on driver, ride on driverman This is my new kingdom where I dreamed about With orange coloured skies An existence without your lies
8.
I still can't believe that you aren't there But everybody knows, we'll see each other someday somewhere It gives me the strength to go, don't care to whom I belong cause when you were around you were more beautiful than the most beautiful sound... Well I'm on the highway, you built on your hands and knees Prepared me for the danger, warned me for falling trees You ware underestimated, the gloom you spreaded was divine Everything you touched sacred, you keep them alive You made people believe in their dreams... Well I'm still on that highway crawling on my hands and knees Searching for the danger, searching to be free You ware underestimated, the gloom you spreaded was divine Everything you touched sacred you keep them alive You made people believe in their dreams You showed them things, beautiful things they would have never seen... You made people believe just like every queen should be...

about

DOLLARQUEEN Belgium

The Belgian Bruges based band Dollarqueen brings you a shimmering sound that is often described as bluesy, psychedelic, dirty road movie rock drenched with influences from the sixties and seventies. At times their music is rock solid, scorching hard and then subtly melancholic. It often covers the backside of the coin, the harsh reality of unrequited desires. ... more
