Dragons Nest (Music: J. Blank; Lyrics: H. Treichel, 1997)
Pillows of concrete and cushions of steel high on the towers of might
Voluptuously feeding their brood, hear them cheer
Huxley and Orwell were right
Eyes in the darkness, Big Bother stands watch
Noone is getting away
A box without hinges, key or a lid. Ignorance now takes its toll,
Ref. Wake up people
Put your (damn) courage to the test
Take a stand now.
Burn the dragons nest!
Heir to the power, creature from hell spreading its wings in the night
St. Michael’s imprisoned, God’s in a maze
Will they come back to the light?
Refrain
Solo
Refrain
What are we doing? What have we done?
What are we making? What have we known?
Daylight is dying, listen and hark.
Control to the end of the dark.
Voiceless it’s crying, wingless it flutters
Toothless it bites and mouth less it mutters.
Endzeit goes out there, cannot be seen
Big Brother stands watch to the scene.

Happy (Music: J. Blank; Lyrics: H. Treichel, 1997)
I can feel it. Love is in, love is in the air.
I can hardly touch the ground.
(Can’t you see it?)
The sun is breaking, breaking through, breaking through the clouds
And the world is full of sound
(Can’t you hear it?)
Ref. We’re so happy ‘cause we never feel the anger in our hearts, in our souls.
Got our music and our friends that’s why we never stay alone
Got a feeling things are working, things are working out.
Got the music that I love.
(Can’t you feel it?)
I’m on my way now, I’m on my way, spinning high above.
Chase the windmills, the wings of time.
(Won’t you tell me?)
Refrain
Solo
I am floating dancing on, dancing on the clouds.
Won’t you join me in kingdom-come?
(Do you want it?)
The sun is breaking, breaking through, breaking through the clouds.
And the world is full of
