No Songs Tomorrow
I had to cry today
Who would have thought
That after killing the song
I’d have been so upset
I’d have been so upset
Death’s toys make me despise
Hate myself, it’s always there
I wanted to do it
I don’t know the reason why
No songs tomorrow
No songs tomorrow
It was part of growing up
From that moment
I’ll keep my word forever
And won’t forget ever
No songs tomorrow
No songs tomorrow

Portrair
I know a small boy
With no love in his eyes
Like the love I know
But sadness and hate
He was not to know
When he goes to school
The other children will tease him
Tell their family
There’s a boy I know
Won’t fight back, cries like a baby
How many of you will say
Try and make friends with him
Bring him here to play
We’d like to meet him
Your daughter grows up
And you want her to marry
A respectable, qualified young man
He’s got a good job there
With excellent prospects
They look very nice together

Some Win This
Some win this
It isn’t what you do or say to me
I only want you for myself
And no one, and no one
Some win this
It’s only jealousy that causes me to
Hate the thought of
Someone else in my position
Some win this
Some win this
Some win this
Some win this
I’d never dreamt of pleasures
That the real thing
Would bring to me
Some win this
We’ll last the days and weeks and years
I’ve ever come to know, I know
Some win this
Some win this
Some win this
Some win this
Some win this
Some win this
Some win this
Into the valley
I will follow you and
Even if that day
Would come so
Very soon

See You
You don’t know me very well but you
You don’t know me very well but you
See you
You don’t know me very well but you
You don’t know me very well but you
See you
I’ve made my mind
Everything’s going to be
Fine the way
I take myself to bed
You don’t know me very well but you
You don’t know me very well but you
See you
You don’t know me very well but you
You don’t know me very well but you
See you
I’ve made my mind
Everything’s going to be
Fine the way
I take myself off

Psalm
Don’t need no god.
Don’t need no eternal paternal god.
Don’t need no re-assuringly protective
Good and evil in perspective god.
Don’t need no imported distorted,
Inflated updated,
Holy roller save your soul or
Anaesthetisingly opiate gods.
Don´t need no all creatures that on earth do dwell
Be good or you go to hell god.
Don’t need no Hare krishna hare krishna
Hail Mary, hail mary god.
Got no yen for zen, Baghavad-Gita or Gurdjieff.
No Mormons, Methodist, Seventh day Adventist god.
No absolutes beyond refute,
No reverential preferential judaic messianic god.
No bibles, no Mahayanas, Dalai Lharmas
Instant dharma gods.
Don’t need no spiritual suicide or
Prefrontal lobotomising god.
Don’t need no stoic sexless
Antiseptic god.
Don’t need no neon crucifix,
No jade buddhas, no vedas or Upanishads,
No camels or needles or Papal decrees.
No mail-order ikons, korans or Mandalas,
No sri Chimnoys orMeha Babas or Ayatollahs
No Guatamas, no Manitou, Ouspensky or Marx,
No yin/yang, no tao, no tarot or incense,
No sacred mushrooms,
No dianetics,
No Tibetan prayer mats,
No ‘Immortal invisible gods only wise’ –
Don’t need no televised circumcised
Incessant incandescant god.
Don’t need no god.
I need human beings.
I need some kind
Of love.
I need you.

UV POP Meerbusch, Germany
The sound of UV PØP has always been a sophisticated blend of sadness; with morose North Country sense and a humorous
confrontational sensibility.
Back again with new material and a carefully polished back catalogue there is evidence still of the melancholy that gave us all hope for today and tomorrow.
