    Thanks To Betti Bauer for the great job on the Official Website (www.truebeliever.de)
    Not to forget Gunther and Oliver and Bunnymom, who also have fansites - plus all Russian Sites with those funny backwards letters that I hope are complimentary, and the ones that are so far back in YAHOO that i'll probably never see 'em

    Very Special Thanks To Tanja Riedl, who does tons of stuff behind the scenes, and Leolina Lowe (same reason).

    Above and beyond section Albi, Leo "The Wheel" Wieland, Hans, Martin Hammerle and Winnie B., Pascal, S & J for being there, Dave and GB and the rest - you know who you are

    This is the first Part of a Trilogy, entitled "Go Out Dancing", (I know, but that's why it's progrock.) Part II of G.O.D., "Levittown", is in production (Nov. 2004), and Part III "Out In The Rain" is mostly written ...

    Recorded between 1992 and 2003 in Tutzing (Germany), finning (germany), and Mallorca (Spain) at SHORTY RECORDERS, which moves around some





    1. My Radio Talks To Me

      Detroit 1939
      Berlin 1939
      The family sits around the radio, Sunday evening
      Like all the other families
      And they wait
      'Cause father has a message for us tonight
      And we can't miss it...

      My radio talks
      My radio talks
      My radio talks to me

      My hiding place is twelve by nine
      Naugahyde and Knotty Pine
      I hurry home at quitting time
      So I won't miss him

      Fathers's on the air tonight
      The message will be shared tonight
      Draw the curtain, dim the light
      Sit back and listen

      'Cause he wants what I want, I want what you want
      We want whatever he tells us is best for us
      Yes I believe it now

      He wants what I want, I want what you want
      We want whatever he tells us is best for us
      Yes I believe it now
      My radio talks to me

      My radio talks
      My radio talks
      My radio talks to me
      My radio talks to me
      My radio talks to me
      Yes I believe it now

      And he says we must be diligent
      With open eyes and vigilant
      And recognize the strangers sent among us (among us)

      Blasphemy and heresy
      Wheels within conspiracies
      And things that we can't see that he sees for us (that he sees for us)

      She wants what I want, I want what you want
      We want whatever he tells us is best for us (best for us)
      She wants what I want, I want what you want
      We want whatever he tells us is best for us
      (Yes I believe it now)
      My radio talks to me

      (She wants what I want, I want what you want
      We want whatever he tells us is best for us)

      Voices will set me free
      Voices will set me free
      Voices will set me free

      My radio talks
      My radio talks
      My radio talks to me
      My radio talks to me ...

    2. Join The Parade

      (instrumental)

    3. Good Little Soldiers

      There are many roads to travel
      And many deeds to do
      Knots to be unraveled
      'Fore the darkness falls on you

      And the pieces of the puzzle
      Fall right into place
      In the ashes and the rubble
      Lies a picture of his face

      And he's talking to you and me
      Hear what he wants us to be
      Good little soldiers
      Good little soldiers

      There are many ways of hating
      And many things to hate
      And it feels like we've been waiting
      For a voice to set us straight

      'Cause we need a common devil
      An enemy for all
      Foreign looking and dishevelled
      Not like us at all

      And he's talking to you and me
      Hear what he wants us to be
      Good little soldiers
      Good little soldiers

      Good little soldiers
      Good little soldiers
      Good little soldiers
      Good little soldiers

    4. Work (Will Make You Free)

      Four 'clock on a cold, wet winter morning
      Tires screech to a halt
      Footsteps pound up the stairs
      Tthe door flies off it's hinges and it's your turn
      Don't pack much, you won't need it
      Hurry up now you'll miss your train.

      Work will make you free, work will make you free

      I was sitting there minding my own damn business
      When a hammer on the door got me on my feet
      There were men out in the landing, there were men out on the stairs
      There men winding down into the street
      They had on brown shirts, brown ties, black boots
      Overside the leader stepped on up to me
      He said I got a piece of paper here with your name on it
      From the highest of authority

      And he said work will make you free, work will make you free

      Well I'm stuck out in a box car
      Stranded out in nowhere, feels like I can hardly breathe
      Well it's the middle of the winter and they gave me these pajamas
      But I think I'm just about to freeze
      They didn't give it any time I didn't get to pack up what was mine
      Didn't tell nobody where I'd be, but your guess is as good as mine, but I bet
      We're going where the sign says - work will make you free

      They said work will make you free, work will make you free
      Work, work will make you free
      Work, work will make you free

      They said work will make you free, work will make you free
      Work, work will make you free
      Work, work will make you free

      And I said, will I ever play the violin again
      And they said, yes you can still do that

      A little night music out in the snow
      Makes the hours go and go and go
      And work will make you free

      Are you ready girls?

      Work, work will make you free
      Work, work will make you free
      Work, work will make you free
      Work, work will make you free

      They said work will make you free, work will make you free
      Work, work will make you free
      Work, work will make you free

      If I didn't know where I was before, at least I know now ...

    5. The Judge And The Jury

      This land is your land, this land is my land,
      From California to the New York Islands
      From the Redwood Forest, to the Gulf Stream waters
      This land belongs to you and me...

      All right
      Yeah

      They are the judge and the jury
      Yeah the ones who will decide
      Who gets burned out in a hurry
      Who can stay and must fly
      You will find them out in Michigan
      Find them in Berlin
      You will find them everywhere
      There's people wearing different skin

      Judge and the jury, yeah!

      This land is my land
      But that's where the music stops
      What about this land is your land
      It must have fell off and got lost
      They sing this land is my land
      Sing it loud and clear, well
      This land is your land
      As long as you're from here, all right

      Judge and the Jury, oh yeah!

      You can meet in secret twice a week
      And shave off all your hair
      You can dress up like it's trick or treat
      Get a big tattoo somewhere
      But if you think that makes you a mover
      If you think that makes you strong
      We got a jailhouse full of losers
      Who found out before too long

      They ain't the Judge and the Jury

      This land is my land
      But that's where the music stops
      What about this land is your land
      It must have fell off and got lost
      They sing
      This land is my land
      Sing it loud and clear well
      This land is your land
      As long as you're from here, all right

      You better not let the sun go down on you in this town boy.
      You'd better make tracks and haul ass out of here!

      The Judge and the Jury, oh yeah!

      They say
      This land is my land
      But that's where the music stops
      What about this land is your land
      It must have fell off and got lost
      They sing
      This land is my land
      Sing it loud and clear well
      This land is your land
      As long as you're from here, all right

      The Judge and the Jury, oh yeah!
      The Judge and the Jury, oh yeah!

      This land is my land
      This land is my land
      This land is my land
      This land is my land

    6. The Other Side Of The Mountain

      (A new world order
      A helicopter, a black helicopter
      In whisper mode
      CIA, Waco, wacko
      Oklahoma City and the boys from the other side of the mountain)

      Got a little black book, built an equalizer
      Right in my kitchen out of scratch
      All that it took was fertilizer,
      And a U-Haul and a match
      And when it it went bang, bang
      Just like advertised
      I went and made another batch

      We'll fight the next one
      With steel knives and hand guns
      From the other side of the mountain
      Where the true believers run
      On the other side of the mountain
      We'll be ready when the next one comes
      All right

      Charlie you bring the gasoline
      I'll bring the gauze slips
      We'll have ourselves a little party tonight
      Down with the machine
      Down with the bosses
      Down with anybody who ain't white

      We'll fight the next one
      With steel knives and hand guns
      From the other side of the mountain
      Where the true believers run
      On the other side of the mountain
      We'll be ready when the next one comes
      All right

      The other side of the mountain
      The other side of the hill

      We'll fight the next one
      With steel knives and hand guns
      From the other side of the mountain
      Where the true believers run
      On the other side of the mountain
      We'll be ready when the next one comes
      All right

      The other side of the mountain
      The other side of the hill

      The other side the mountain
      The other side the mountain

    7. Waiting For The Winter

      Warsaw, Autumn 1943
      Not many of us left
      And winter's coming
      I can smell it in the air
      And with winter the End,
      The game is over

      He's a world away from mother now
      In this land of smoke and steel
      He lies listening for another sound
      And he's eaten his last meal

      And he knows that winter is coming
      And he knows he won't survive
      But he's tired of endless running
      He won't hide...

      And for those who still lie hidden
      He's afraid he can't provide
      And he hopes they will forgive him
      By and by...

      And he's waiting for the winter
      And he's waiting for the winter

      He was born here in this city
      He thought he knew these people well
      'Till the one who shows no pity
      Took the world under his spell

      And he knows that winter is coming
      As it's always come before
      As he reads the yellow letter
      Painted on his door

      And the letter stands for everything
      Yeah the letter says it all
      How far can one people sink '
      And how far can they fall?

      He's waiting for the winter
      Waiting for the winter

      He's waiting for the winter
      Waiting for the winter
      Waiting for the winter

      He's waiting for the winter
      Waiting for the winter
      Waiting for the winter

    8. Believe It

      In a room that has no windows
      In a house that has no heat
      Wait's the lone, supreme commander
      From the boys from Charlie-Street
      And he waits for inspiration
      Yeah he's waiting for a sign
      When the sun goes down this evening
      Him and the boys are gonna shine

      And you know this man is deadly
      Though he looks like you and me
      You would never turn around and stare
      If you met him on the street
      But he's eaten up with anger
      And he's all fired up with hate
      We'd gotta recognize the enemy
      Before it's too late

      Believe it, you better believe it now
      Ready or not, well here they come
      Just like 1931

      He's got bottles full of gasoline
      Got a knife stuck in his boot
      And he stands up like a ramrod
      When he throws you that salute
      He believes this is his destiny
      He believes this is his fate
      He believes that he born about 50 years too late

      And he does not have a future
      And he does not have a job
      But he feels like part of something
      When he's running with the mob
      And he thinks he's talking politics
      Like the big boys on the news
      But he's only talking terror
      Burn it down, yeah light the fuse

      Believe it, you better believe it now
      Ready or not, well here they come
      Just like 1931

      It's about a kind of, it's about when you cross the line
      When you have a fantasy and pursue it
      And it becomes the experience, and you can't handle the experience

      Believe it
      Ready or not, well here they come
      Just like 1931

      Take a look around,
      You gotta take a look around,
      You gotta take a look around
      You better believe it
      You gotta take a look around
      You better believe it now

      Ready or not, well here they come
      Just like 1931

      You better believe it, you better believe it now

      Ready or not, well here they come
      Just like 1931

      You better believe it, you better believe it now

    9. The Things They Never Told Me

      (The things they never told me
      Yeah the things I never knew
      The things I always thought
      But never had the nerve to do
      The things they didn't tell me
      Like how good it feels
      They didn't have to sell me
      I salute and click my heels)

      Well there's something going on here
      Yeah there's something in the air
      And all of us belong here we've got uniforms to wear
      They call it revolution, but I call it good clean fun
      And I make my contribution and they let me wear a gun

      It don't get no better than this
      Where have they been all my life
      I've got my jack boots and my fist
      I've got my matches and my knife

      I do the things they never told me
      Yeah the things I never knew
      The things I always thought
      But never had the nerve to do
      I do the things they didn't tell me
      Like how good it feels
      They didn't have to sell me
      I salute and click my heels

      And times were really hard and there was nothing left to eat
      I went looking for a job, I walked the soles right off my feet
      I did not see the lies, you know I didn't know who to blame
      Till he opened up my eyes, you know he called them out by name

      Don't get no better than this
      Where have they been all my life
      I've got my jack boots and my fist
      I've got my matches and my knife

      I do the thing they never told me

      I like the things they never told me
      The things they never told me
      I do the things they never told me
      The things they never told me

      The things they never taught me
      Yeah the things I never knew
      The things I always thought
      But never had the nerve to do
      Things they didn't tell me
      Like how good it feels
      To feel an old man's glasses
      Shatter underneath your heels

    10. Where Does It Go

      If your watching if your part of it
      If your close enough to see it, you're in it
      There's no line drawn, dividing the two
      And if you don't know where you come from
      You don't know where you're going... do you?
      And things that might have happened back in the dark recesses of history
      Can't happen again... can they?

      There showing the colors black, white and red
      They want to play baseball on you head
      And if you sit at home with the shades drawn
      They'll never go away, they'll never be gone

      There's a hundred thousand people on the street tonight
      There's a million more who wait behind the scenes
      I see a house divided hanging by a thread tonight
      And a people who remember where they've been

      But where does it go?
      Where does it go?
      Where will he lead?
      What have we learned?
      Yeah, where does this all go?
      What does it take?
      How long will we bleed?
      How many will burn?

      I saw a crowd of skins push a kid around
      One over the head, left him on the ground
      There was crowd of people, stood and cheered
      Then they melted away, just disappeared

      There's a hundred thousand people on the street tonight
      There's a million more who wait behind the scenes
      I see a house divided hanging by a thread tonight
      And a people who remember where they've been

      But where does it go?
      Where does this all go?

      And they don't like him and they don't like you
      Don't like the Muslim, don't like the Jew
      Don't like the people from over there
      And they don't like me at all... look at all that hair
      Where does it go?
      Yeah, where does it go?

      But where does it go?
      Where does this all go?

      Where does it go?

      Where does it go?
      Where will it lead?
      What have we learned?
      What does it take?
      How long will we bleed?
      How many will burn?
      Yeah, where does this all go?

      Where does it go?
      Where will it lead?
      What have we learned?
      Yeah, where does this all go?
      What does it take?
      How long will we bleed?
      How many will burn?

      Where does it go?
      Where does it lead?
      What have we learned?
      What does it take?
      How long will we bleed?
      How many will burn?
