Kraaiend van plezier,
En stralend van geluk,
Zou ik nooit meer op mezelf willen lijken
Ik zou trots zijn op mijn benen
Met zwaar gewichten trainen
En in gesmeerd met levertraan
Zou ik zo'n slecht figuur niet slaan
Maar ik ben zo slap als een vaatdoek
Zo week als een mossel
Zo traag als een slak

Smithereens - Twenty One Pilots[Songtekst]
You know, I've always been collected, calm and chill
And you know, I never look for conflict for the thrill
But if I'm feeling someone stepping towards you
Can't describe just what I'm feeling
For you, I'd go step to a dude much bigger than me
For you, I know, I would get messed up, weigh 153
For yShy Away - Twenty One Pilots[Songtekst]
When I get home
You better not be there
We're placing bets you won't
Shed your modesty
And the only
Thing to leave behind is your own skin
On the floor
Don't you shy away
Manifest a ceiling when you shy away
Searching for that feeling
Just like an I love you
That isn't words
Like a song he wrote

225
(Sullivan/Heaton) 1988
She stares at the screen, at the little words of green
Tries to do remember what to do next
There's a trace of frustration that crosses her face
Searching for the key she should press
And I would help her if I only know how
But these things are a mystery to me 51st State - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Look out of your windows, watch the skies
Read all the instructions with bright blue eyes
Were W.A.S.P.s, proud American sons
We know how to clean our teeth and how to strip down a gun
We're the 51st state of America
Our star-spangled Union Jack flutters so proud

BALLAD OF BODMIN PILL
(Heaton/Sullivan) 1987
Smash glass against the wall
Curse the music on the radio that the neighbours play.
Door slams, she turns her head
Watches through the window as he pulls away
Funny how your racing brain drives you so mad
When all the while you feel so numb
TBittersweet - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Once upon a time it was easy
Everything kind of fell into place
Now this feeling won't leave me
We lost the power and we lost the pace
It's staring straight between the eyes
Something isn't right
The harder we try the more we realise
Something isn't right
So bittersweet, this whole thing, sBrave New World - New Model Army[Songtekst]
The office lines are busy and the girls are working hard
Tonight they’ll be out clubbing with their boyfriends busy wishing they were

Let’s drink a toast top rosperity, tell the waiting pressmen that

BRAVE NEW WORLD 2
(Sullivan/Heaton/Harris/Joolz) 1985
The thick black smoke comes rising up, silent in these dreams
There's faces leering through the haze, that ripples in the heat
And words are just some place to hide, a wall that we can run behind
When truth is itching, twisting, turningBury The Hatchet - New Model Army[Songtekst]
BURY THE HATCHET
(Heaton/Sullivan) 1990
Bury the hatchet with a smile and a curse
The world is big enough for both of us
The pack's been shuffled now - we've got different hands
There's different enemies for both of us now
There's no one round here who remembers those times
When we were Family Life - New Model Army[Songtekst]
How did they do this to you?
How did they do this to you?
Were you the weapon that they used
As they tore apart the family
Did they bring you here as they were passing through?
How did they do this to you?
And now you don't want to go home
And now you say that you never will go home

FLYING THROUGH THE SMOKE
(Sullivan/Heaton) 1997/99
Red dots - close my eyes - tunnel vision
the cooling towers lik eCathedrals
Pitch black dark, brighter than the sun
Less than zero, more than infinity
Forever the graphics curling on the screen
Forever the numbers counting on and on

GREEN AND GREY
(Heaton/Sullivan) 1987
The time I think most clearly, the time I drift away
Is on the bus-ride that meanders up these valleys of green and grey
I get to think about what might have been and what may yet come true
And I get to pass a rainy mile thinking of you
And all the whHere Comes The War - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Today, as you listen to this song
Another 394,000 children were born into this world
They break like waves of hunger and desire upon these eroded shores
Carrying the curses of history and a history yet unwritten
The oil burns in thick black columns, the buzz saws echo through the forest floorHigher Wall - New Model Army[Songtekst]
HIGHER WALL
(Sullivan/Harris) 1987
We're out here on the borders with our favourite few possessions
Traded stories whispered round the fire
As shadows in the searchlights, mugshots in the files
Waiting in the camps behind the wire
Kick the door until it opens, what you have you cannot hold

I LOVE THE WORLD
(Sullivan/Heaton) 1988
The roll of distant thunder breaks, the afternoon of silence wakes
They hurry through from Petergate as if they know this dance
In fury blind, I drive at night across the moors, the open roads
Beneath the freezing starry skies, racing in some trance
If You Can't Save Me - New Model Army[Songtekst]
In a nowhere bar-room on the east side of the city
There was a strange smell of burning outside the street
I was giving a sermon like the son of the preacher
I was high of revolution and wild with belief
Across the table she was lighting a cigarette
And in the light fo the flame her eyes flaInheritance - New Model Army[Songtekst]

(Sullivan/Heaton) 1988
Mother, Father, I'm doing OK
On the other side of the country, far away
And though I know the things that you want to hear me say
Sometimes these things are hard

You scream and we're gone - falling out
There must have been times in the smoke and the beat on the dance-floor
When all of the doors, they were opening for you
There must have been times when you thought you were kings of Lovesongs - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Under darkening thundering towering skies
We live through these painful days
Walking like strangers in streets of damnation
Under the enemy's gaze
Well we all create monsters
Come back for their masters
The prices the Devil reclaims

MODERN TIMES
(Sullivan/Nelson) 1992
It seems strange to write about these things now
but the time has probably come when we should
accept whatever is past and gone and never will return.
Looking back to the beginning
I see a flood of painful memories
and the bitter hurt and wounded prideNo Pain - New Model Army[Songtekst]
NO PAIN
(Sullivan) 1994
Across the town on the other hill,
your lights glow from a different world.
You always found a place to hide - nails and cross to lay beside;
with all the ghosts that we denied.
Now, in rippled arcs across the sky, the great white birds of winter fly;
and the wheeNo Rest - New Model Army[Songtekst]
There is no rest for the wicked ones
Dear God what is this evil that we’ve done?
Is it that we wanted more than you gave?
Why did you put us then in this small town grave?
Humility – is that what you want?
Why did you make us then the way you did?
Yes we have pride, yes we have pride
IPoison Street - New Model Army[Songtekst]
We were singing in the rain – like we invented singing
There’s a light in the sky from a million street lights
And we danced all the steps from all those old time movies
Rolling down the hill with laughing hearts
In Poison Street they guard the gates with bitter, bitter tongues

STUPID QUESTIONS
(Sullivan) 1987
It's not a crime to be innocent, these things we have not done
But you're not some little child, spring is past and gone
Well I know my craving heart and I've seen your vicious eyes
And I think we know the truth, both you and I
Don't flutter your lashes liThe Charge - New Model Army[Songtekst]
Our history speaks in thunder from a thousand village halls
In blood and sweat and sacrifice, in honouring every call
So the forces gathered against the thorn a-piercing in their side
A brave new world is beckoning so the olden world must die.

THE HUNT
(Sullivan/Heaton) 1986
We went into town on the Tuesday night
Searching all the places that you hang about
We're looking for you
In the back street cellar dive drinking clubs
In the discotheques and the gaming pubs
We're looking for you
You will pay the price for my own sweet broVagabonds - New Model Army[Songtekst]
VAGABONDS
(Sullivan) 1987
We follow the taillights out of the city
Moving in a river of red
As the colours fade away from the dusky sunset
We roll for the darkness ahead
Ch: We are old, we are young, we are in this together
Vagabonds and children, prisoners forever

If you really want to take the time
But don't expect to get answers to anything, Eddie

Everything I have justified

Well we know what makes the flowers grow
but we don't knoiw why
and we all have the knowledge of DNA
but we still die
we perch so thin and fragile here
upon the land
and the earth that moves beneath us we don't understand

And now you wait for another time
And now you're asking me to answer to

You're always running away from your pain
