Jonna Wants Two Beers

(Jonna/Mimmo God/Rob N. Roll)

Christie is very angry with mom & daddy
They treat her like a child while she feels a lady
Jonna’s rock’n’ roll opened up her mind
Yeah, she wanted more, something hard to find

A small town girl, her waking dreams
A bigger place to spread her wings

Now Christie’s gone away to live in London, live in London
Jonna wants two beers to drown it all
All these years she talked about goin’ to live in London, live in London
Now I can finally sleep my headache off

Just the day before i met her friend, Kareena
She was fancy dressed and sippin’whiskey
She kissed me and turned me on, yeah, she went out of bounds
She said “I always do it when my boy’s not around”

A small town girl, her waking dreams
A bigger place to spread her wings

Kareena’s gone away to live in London, live in London
Jonna wants two beers to drown it all
All these years she talked about goin’ to live in London, live in London
Now I can finally sleep my headache off

Christie & Kareena are gone, they live in London, live in London
Jonna wants two beers to drown it all
All these years they dreamed about goin’ to live in London, live in London
Now I can finally sleep

Piracy

(Jonna)

four men, in grey uniform
entered my world at dawn
just to look through my secrets

but I laugh out loud at these powerful pigs

I smoked 90 cigarettes, in just six hours
they tried to teach their law to me
and get into my brain

but I laugh out loud at these powerful pigs
my mind’s already into the future of

wild piracy
free piracy
pirate for a living
let’s hack the world!

like marionettes, they had to find their goddamn truth
to give some sense to their boring lives
an illusion of honesty

but I laugh out loud at these powerful pigs
my mind’s already into the future of

wild piracy
free piracy
pirate for a living
let’s hack the world!

I’m so tired, all alone, “objection overruled!”
it’s the final judgment
I can’t speak but… but…

but I laugh out loud at these powerful pigs
my mind’s already into the future of

wild piracy
free piracy
pirate for a living
let’s hack the world!

House Of Rock

(Jonna/Mimmo God/Rob N. Roll)

Fall down, out of bed, a night spent on booze ‘n’ cigarettes
Not enough, I want more, I won’t wait until next weekend
This is the house with the devil’s sound
Passions write the rules, pleasure’s all around
This is the place where this band was born
We are the loudest blokes you’ve ever heard

I can’t stop this feeling – down to the bone
I can’t stop this feeling – under my skin
I can’t stop this feeling – deep in my soul
I can’t stop this feeling ‘cos I live in the

(House of rock) we are the leaders of rock’n’roll
(House of rock) we all live in the house of rock
(House of rock) we are the loudest band in Rome
(House of rock) we are the guestz in the house of rock

Party time 24/7, never know what’s gonna happen
Bottles and chains everywhere, red light action always there
Our rock ‘n’ roll is not for money
Got no class at all, it’s just for glory
I can’t go on when it’s just too much
I need a change of direction but…

I can’t stop this feeling – down to the bone
I can’t stop this feeling – under my skin
I can’t stop this feeling – deep in my soul
I can’t stop this feeling

I started at the bottom to get to the top
And I still don’t know how we get along
Hard times are gone and this song’s for you
It’s the best that I can do, after all me and you
Shared more than a room

Naked Alice

(Rob N. Roll)

MySpace addiction was my salvation
Yeah, she added me, she wanted love with no restriction

Hi-res device, broadband sensations
Oh, she likes my hardware plugged into her connections

No more lonely handjobs, goodbye to the webcam
Now that I am with my Naked Alice
Naked Alice (Naked Alice)
Naked Alice (Naked Alice)

Analog feel, digital touch
Once she’s operative you can never have too much

No power failure, no system crash
Got her open source around my joystick made of flesh

No more lonely handjobs, goodbye to the webcam
Now that I am with my Naked Alice
Naked Alice (Naked Alice)
Naked Alice (Naked Alice)

In The Blink Of An Eye

(Jonna/Mimmo God/Rob N. Roll)

Psychedelic room at the hard rock hotel
It’s scene of the crime, the beginnin’ of the end
From the dancefloor to the bar, then she took me upstairs
And still she’d hold me there, hand-cuffed and chained

She just touched my body and then crushed my soul
Now I see her, she’s still acting like before, ‘cos she’s

Always cheating, heart lies bleeding
She led me to the very end
Always cheating, heart lies bleeding
Now you know she caught me by surprise
In the blink of an eye

Just a touching glance in the heat of a summer night
Just another chance, I know it won’t come twice
She said “get ready for a night that’s never ever gonna end!”
A dream turns into nightmare, no reason to stay

She just touched my body and then crushed my soul
Now I’m free but she’s just acting like before, ‘cos she’s

Always cheating, heart lies bleeding
She led me to the very end
Always cheating, heart lies bleeding
Now you know, she caught me
Always cheating, heart lies bleeding
She put my back against the wall
Always cheating, heart lies bleeding
Now you know, she caught me by surprise
In the blink of an eye

And now I wonder who’s the next to be her prey ‘cos she’s

(Always cheating) She crushed my soul
(Heart lies bleeding) You known she’s
(Always cheating) Always cheating
(Heart lies bleeding) My back’s against the wall
You know she caught me by surprise
In the blink of an eye

Not For Money, Just For Glory
