”The Beautiful Occupation” Melodie de: Travis Don’t just stand there watching it happening I can’t stand it Don’t feel it Something telling me Don’t wanna go out this way But have a nice day Then read it in the headlines Watch it on the TV Put it in the background Stick it in the back Stick it in the back For the beautiful occupation The beautiful occupation You don’t need an invitation To drop in upon a nation I’m too cynical I’m just sitting here I’m just wasting my time Half a million civilians gonna die today But look the wrong way Then read it in the headlines Watch it on the TV Put it in the background Stick it in the back Stick it in the back For the beautiful occupation The beautiful occupation You don’t need an invitation To drop in upon a nation Don’t just stand there […]
Travis – ”Why does it always rain on me”
„Why Does It Always Rain On Me?” Melodie de: Travis I can’t sleep tonight Everybody saying everything’s alright Still I can’t close my eyes I’m seeing a tunnel at the end of all these lights Sunny days Where have you gone? I get the strangest feeling you belong Why does it always rain on me? Is it because I lied when I was seventeen? Why does it always rain on me? Even when the sun is shining I can’t avoid the lightning I can’t stand myself I’m being held up by an invisible man Still life on a shelf when I got my mind on something else Sunny days Where have you gone? I get the strangest feeling you belong Why does it always rain on me? Is it because I lied when I was seventeen? Why does it always rain on me? Even when the sun is shining I […]

Travis – ”Selfish Jean”
Cheers Thanks for everything You hung me up by my heart You’re just so selfish, Jean Yes, you are Hey you Threw it all away By holding everything in Hey Jean, don’t rock the boat When you can’t swim Well a perfect understanding of the finer things in life A quite alarming knack of knowing when to twist the knife Ahhh ahhh, selfish Jean Here’s to you Who had everything And left it out on the shelf There’s no one else to blame Except yourself Well, a perfect combination of good etiquette and charm You keep the chocolate biscuits wired to a car alarm Ahhh ahhh, selfish Jean But I’m standing on my own And this house is not a home So sad to see you go Things are high Things are low And it’s good to know you know If you got no where to go Well you could […]
Travis – ”Closer”
”I’ve had enough, of this parade. I’m thinking of, the words to say. We open up, unfinished parts, Broken up, its so mellow.

Keep waking up (waking up), without you here (without you here). Another day (another day), another year (another year). I seek the truth (seek the truth), we set apart (we set apart) Thinking of a second chance (a second chance). And when I see you then I know it will be next to me And when I need you then I know you will be there with me Ill never leave […]
