A Little Like Peer Gynt

Welcome to our little theater, Welcome to our little show
Please put to sleep your handy phones, I know it's hard to let them go
Throw away your preconceptions about who this Peer is supposed to be
Because I think you'll find, whether you like or not, this Peer's a bit like you and me
If you've traveled around in circles and you've wondered where it ends
If you've gone so fast you've blurred the lines between the real and the pretend
If you've climbed up to great heights then fallen back down when you're spent
Then you might have to admit you are a little like Peer Gynt

WHILE MY HEART IS STILL BEATIN'
NOTHIN'S GONNA CHANGE THE WAY I PLAY MY GAME
TELL ME EVERY WOMAN IS EVIL, TELL ME UGLY IS THE NEW BEAUTIFUL
STILL I'M GONNA PLAY MY GAME THE SAME
'CAUSE WHEN YOU BELIEVE IN YOURSELF YOU CAN DO ANYTHING
NOBODY'S GONNA TELL ME WHAT I CANNOT DO OR DRINK OR SING
I'VE ALWAYS BEEN A DREAMER
AND DREAMS CAN'T BE ENSLAVED
YES I'VE ALWAYS BEEN A DREAMER AND
I'LL LIVE MY DREAMS MY OWN WAY X3
ALL THE WAY TO MY GRAVE
WHILE MY HEART IS STILL BEATIN'
I WILL FLOAT LIKE A FEATHER ON HISTORY'S TIDE
WHILE MY HEART IS STILL BEATIN'
I WILL BE BOUND TO NO MAN, BOUND TO NO BRIDE
(CHS REPEAT)

I know you've heard it before, I do not care,
I need More More More More More More More
I need to see you strip I need to take a trip
I need More More More More More More More
Just like a plant needs Sun I need my fun fun fun
I need More More More More More More More
I need sex sex sex I need six six six
I need More More More More More More More
Like the Moon needs the stars I need me something from Mars
I need More More More More More More More
Like a baby on a tit or Lady Gaga needs a hit
I need More More More More More More More
Like a bird needs seed or like a hippy needs weed
I need More More More More More More More
I know I'll reach the top because I cannot stop
I need More More More More More More More
Like the bee needs the sting I need to be your King
I need More More More More More More More
I need to fill my glass, I'd like to kick your ass
I need More More More More More More More
And you might think it funny but I need even more money
I need More More More More More More More
More drugs, more games, more power, more Fame!
I need More More More More More More More

WHEN WE FINALLY ASCEND TO THAT ULTIMATE BIRD'S EYE VIEW
AND WE'RE LOOKING DOWN ON ALL THE THINGS WE DID AND ALL WE ONLY DREAMT WE'D DO
I KNOW THAT I WONT HAVE REGRETS
YOU CAN BET THAT I WONT HAVE REGRETS
Ingrid:
YOU, YOU ARE, YOU KNOW YOU ARE THE ONLY SHOE THAT FITS ME
THE ONLY ONE THAT GETS ME
Solveig:
CRAZY CRAZY WHAT IS GOING ON HERE
I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS
KIND OF MADNESS
COULD IT BE THAT THIS WAS MEANT TO BE
THIS CRAZY MAN FOR CRAZY ME
Mutter:
YOU, YOU ARE, YOU KNOW YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE
THAT LIGHTS MY SKY MY ONLY SON
All
YOU, YOU ARE, YOU KNOW YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE
THAT FITS ME
THE ONLY ONE THAT GETS ME

IF YOU'RE ROUGH, THEN YOU'RE ROUGH
IF YOU'RE NOT HARD THEN DON'T ACT TOUGH
YOU'RE A JOKER? HAVE A LAUGH
TO THYSELF, BE ENOUGH
TO THYSELF, BE ENOUGH (X4)
(Instrumental break)
YOU MUST ACCEPT WHERE YOU ARE AT
YOU'RE STILL THE SAME UNDER EACH HAT
A RAT OF ANY OTHER COLOR IS A RAT
AND THAT IS THAT
TO THYSELF, BE ENOUGH (X4)
(Instrumental break)
IF YOU'RE BIG YOU ARE A WHALE
IF YOU'RE SLOW YOU ARE A SNAIL
THE BRIDE WILL HAVE TO HAVE A VEIL
AND IF YOU'RE TROLL YOU'LL HAVE A TAIL
SIE DU SELBST DIR GENUG (X4)

Is all that we are just the sum of all we've been
A collection of impressions of all that we have seen
Inside you there's a piece of every place you ever went
And if you've got pieces from everywhere then you're a bit like old Peer Gynt
-
Our kings and stars and presidents
All struggle with these elements
Status, age and arrogance
The meaning of their existence
And the question of our existence
Negro slaves to Carolina
Heathen images to China
Use them and abuse them
For money and to see what happens
Here you have gone too far sir
Here you have gone too far sir
Punishments and Lullabies
A kiss, a fist between the eyes
Punishments and Lullabies
A kiss, a fist between the eyes
Now are you ready for your meltdown?
Are you ready for your meltdown?
