Kyrie eleison [Lord, have mercy]

Wish upon a star to find out how
I woke up in the morning papers somehow
I couldn´t understand where I was going
I didn´t know what I was doing or why
It hurt to say goodbye to move on
So many miles of falldown, I know it´s cruel
That I was in the house of old mick arrow
When he didn´t know what he was doing

Gloria in excelsis Deo [Glory to God in heaven] Credo [I believe] Sanctus [holy]
(Wash your mouth now for the king of the star)
All the layers of universal form, I kick them like a bubble of soap
And I show it all, I should have gone there long before
What´s a big car to the king of a star?

And the trees have lost their leaves once more the autumn I adore
The fall of my life approaches faster than the storm
(I was told I´m the king of a star)
And the dream´s run for too long; the Perfect Song "in a year or four"
We´ve been in our real home and never left at all
What´s a star? I´m the king of a star!

I know it´s cold here, I know it´s deep
But it´s so really good for you that I could weep
And dive into the ocean of love
I know it´s cold here, I know it´s cruel
And it´s not easy for you not to play nice and cool
But we could dance, dance upon the ocean of love

Gloria in excelsis Deo [Glory to God in heaven] Credo [I believe] Sanctus [holy]
(Wash your mouth now for the king of the star)
Ordinary dreams and the author of schemes, please forgive me if I say no more
(even though) I could call the good Lord and wake up and fall no more
Bring me down now to the king of the star

And the trees have lost their leaves once more the autumn I adore
The fall of my life approaches faster than the storm
(I was told I´m the king of a star)
And the dream´s run for too long; the Perfect Song "in a year or four"
We´ve been in our real home and never left at all
What´s a star? I´m the king of a star!

What a life! sign papers, act straight, be prepared, Never miss a chance
Online, smile if you must, trust no one, fight age, wrinkles everywhere

I can´t open the dog for you, I can´t open the dog for you
But I can show you the way to the river where you have to drink on your own
And dance upon the ocean of life

Ita, missa est [mass is ended]
