De teksten van de nummers op de EP vind je hier:
Kings of Town
It took me two years to get up on my feet again
But now it’ll take a lifetime to bring me down
It took you your fears to realize you’re here again
But now you’ve found your way back into town
Now that the empty streets are run by ice and snow
Maybe now it’s time for us to go
To go outside and have some fun and bring that big bad wolf along
There’s not a single reason to be afraid
Of the hard times that are coming rapidly our way
Now that we’re the owners of our fate
Now that the empty streets are run by ice and snow
Maybe now it’s time for us to go
And I say, Oh oh oh
It’s nice to know you’re on my side
Oh oh oh, In this universal fight
Nothing’s gonna stop us now, we will get there anyhow
You should just remember we’re the kings of town
So dress up to the nines and hang out your colored flags
Get out on the streets when we march in
Make sure you wear your finest diamonds tucked up in your hair
And listen to the music of the Fins
Now that the crowded streets are run by us alone
Maybe now it’s time for us to go
And I say, Oh oh oh
It’s nice to know you’re on my side
Oh oh oh, In this universal fight
Nothing’s gonna stop us now, we will get there anyhow
You should just remember we’re the kings of town
Let´s play outside and have some fun and bring that big bad wolf along
There’s not a single reason to be afraid
And I say, Oh oh oh
It’s nice to know you’re on my side
Oh oh oh, In this universal fight
Nothing’s gonna stop us now, we will get there anyhow
You should just remember we’re the kings of town
Oh we´re the kings of town
Oh we´re the kings of town
All day long
All day long you can turn away from the sun
You can stay inside and wait for the night until dawn
All day long you can think of what has to be done
And sure it is easy to ignore what you’ve got ‘till it’s gone
So please go outside where the sun awaits your skin
And the birds await your ears for you to hear them sing
Go to the beach where your friends await your stories
And their jokes await your laughter and the fire needs your songs
All day long you should live by the rules of that poem you got
From that girl in the bar who knew it by heart but forgot
The name of the guy who wrote it but I didn’t care a lot
He said count your blessings and never the things that you haven’t got
He said please go outside where the sun awaits your skin
And the birds need your ears for you to hear them sing
And go to the beach where your friends await your stories
And their jokes await your laughter and the fire needs your songs
Just For Tonight
So this is the closest I can get
Without making a move that I’m gonna regret
But you’re making it so hard with looking at me like that
I might just take you in my arms
And drag you to my bed
But would you let me
Or would you slap me in my face
Would you let me take you home
And have you in every single dirty way I want
Oh would you have me just for tonight
So this was the closest I could be
Without taking the risk that you would notice me
Now I’ve gone to far as you can clearly see
What is on my mind oh please babe set me free
But would you let me
Or would you slap me in my face
Would you let me take you home
And have you in every single dirty way I want
Oh would you have me just for tonight
Even with my hands (above your head)
Yesterday is gone and I can hardly think of a way to tell you
But tomorrow’s here and I stand by your side to live it with you
Rain was falling down on your head
And I tried to hold my hands above your head
But even with my hands, even with my hands
Even with my hands above your head
Rain would still fall down, rain would still fall down
Rain would still fall…
Oh I wish my hands were bigger,
Oh I wish my hands were bigger
For you
So here we stand, together hand in hand, and I know
You’ll make it on your own wherever you will go
Rain was falling down on your head
And I tried to hold my hands above your head
But even with my hands, even with my hands
Even with my hands above your head
Rain would still fall down, rain would still fall down
Rain would still fall…
Oh I wish my hands were bigger,
Oh I wish my hands were bigger
For you
