-------------------------------------------------------------- ROCK 'N ROLL (...GET A JOB) Words & Music by Jéan Lötz. -------------------------------------------------------------- (Verse 1) Three boys in an old garage With brand new strings on cheap guitars Picture perfect wannabe's (Verse 2) Clinging to a fading dream While real life’s pulling out the seams I guess that’s the way it goes… (Pre Chorus) You do what you need to… Suck it up… when you have to… It’s pretty clear when they tell you… (Chorus) You know you need to get a job And leave your dreams of rock ‘n roll You gotta pay the bills, If you want to survive You, mortal soul You gotta let it go… Grow up and let go… (Verse 3) Now you thinking back, to what has been It’s ten years gone and nothing seems To make any sense (Verse 4) You hardly touch your old guitar While day job wage & mid-life scars Gets harder to defend (Pre Cho) Cuz you did what you had to… When the tide came towards you… Just as they told you… (Chorus Repeat)

-------------------------------------------------------------- SWELLENDAM Words & Music Jéan Lötz. -------------------------------------------------------------- (Verse 1) Driving out of the city Yeah I could leave this all behind For a magical place, under the southern sky I've been craving for a while (Verse 2) This is where I grew up At the foot of the mountain, at small town speed And you swore once, you'd never return But you'll miss her like a lover, who's deeds... (Pre Chorus) Once filled your senses Touched your senses Moved your senses.....aha (Chorus) She yea, she's the smell of summer She yea, she's the December sun She's got charm like no other Where you heart needs your feet to run... You're free to run (Verse 3) Old town buildings that speak through scars Always familiar faces, over drinks at the bar We can head up the mountain if you want Or take a walk in the forest and lose who we are... (Pre Chorus 2) And fill our senses Touch our senses Move the senses.....aha...move the senses... (Chorus Repeat)

Looking Back 03:34

-------------------------------------------------------------- LOOKING BACK Words & Music Jéan Lötz. -------------------------------------------------------------- (Verse 1) Remember us driftin' away, into the sun's rays We got high on all of life, and high on everything And good times always came easily / Like a friend at the front door (Verse 2) Remember the pacts we made, the drinking games we played And always way into the night, was where the conversation strayed Still so clear in my memory, like I'm still standing right there... (Chorus) Aha... / These memories find me, when I'm looking back Aha... / And I'm always smiling, when I play them back (Verse 3) Was it the night of colored lights, against the forest sky Where the music made us dance, immune to all of life We learned how to laugh and feel from the soul Our weight worth in gold... (Chorus Repeat) We can take a trip down, reliving the moments, if you wanna do that... It'll leave you smiling just take a glimpse back...

-------------------------------------------------------------- (WON"T YOU) BE MY BABY? Words & Music Jéan Lötz. -------------------------------------------------------------- (Verse 1) You were the one, I swore you were the one The first time I saw you, on the school yard You had it down, that lookin' so mysterious You wore it like you did those smoky brown eyes (Verse 2) Before long you were all that I could think about I was the dreamer having nothing quite figured out What would I say if I could somehow speak to you What if the words would disappear were I to ask you... (Chorus) Won't you be my baby , Wont' you be my girl Give it all for you Won't you be my baby , Wont' you be my girl It's all for you... (Verse 3) Sitting in my room, on the weekends, with nowhere to go Spent my hours, make believe in things I’d known It was a certain magic - all of your own That kept me awake at night... (Chorus Repeat) (Bridge) I remember you smile as you turned away Knowing I'd never see you again... My silent conversation....oh oh

Married 04:38

-------------------------------------------------------------- MARRIED Words & Music Jéan Lötz. -------------------------------------------------------------- (Verse 1) Well, you’re the one I waited my life for We’re so good together, playing house Cuz when you're choppin' veggies like some TV chef It's enough to sell me, suburban life (Verse 2) The morning traffic is hitting slow While we're trying to get to work in time But just the thought, of me, coming home to you It seems so perfect by design... (Chorus) Everybody's saying we're practically married now Cuz ever since we first met, yea, we still, hold it together Everybody's sayin' "Why don't you get married now" They say we're magic for sure, we're birds of a feather (Verse 3) Now I like it - wearing my weekend hat When Friday comes and rolls out the welcome mat Cuz when the red wines out and we celebrate Saturday comes in handy, sleeping late (Verse 4) Now you don't like going shopping, all on your own And I think up excuses not to go Cuz standing in line at the grocery store Ain't quite what I was built for...No... (Chorus Repeat)

-------------------------------------------------------------- PLAY WITH FIRE (ft Mike Brown) Words & Music Jéan Lötz. -------------------------------------------------------------- (Verse 1) Can’t keep taking for long Till the tables turn and you’re reign gets overthrown Hands tied, we’ve look upon Lesser the meat, clinging to the bone (Verse 2) You say you’re just playin’ the game You don’t write the rules, so why are you to blame But your deals with the devil, you know Is no longer a secret , only you own... (Chorus) If you play with fire (If you play…) If you play with fire (If you play…) You could get your fingers burnt… (Verse 3) You’re preaching respect By one, unto himself, excluding all the rest But do you think the effect, Could ever survive these turmoil ends? (Verse 4) As the past will suggest It’s a futile journey, seeded with regrets Too much money & greed You have blood on your hands and you're a prisoner to your needs... (Chorus Repeat)
