JULL’S BOOGIE
We’ve been to Hamburg
We’ve been to Berlin
20 years we’re playin
small clubs and towns
open air in a rainstorm
under black forest clouds
It’s too late to stop now
Much too late to stop
Play me one one more song before we go
Don’t stop the show don’t stop the show
These hours we play
time stands still
that’s what we call the good life
that’s what we always will
It’s too late to stop now
It’s too late to stop
Too late to stop now
Much too late to stop
Play me one one more song before we go
Don’t stop the show don’t stop the show

PRESENT FOR A DAY
Big red box
On my table it lay
What a big surprise
Somebody gave to me
Pretty darn happy
I took it home
My telephone was ringing
And a voice it said to me
You took the red box but it’s not yours
Easy come easy go
Present for a day
Each morning you wake up
It’s the same old thing
You can’t be sure
If you wake up again
Every new morning
Is a present my friend
Gotta cherish and love it
Like a loyal fan
It’s not yours it’s not mine
Learn to accept
Present for a time
Life’s so fragile
Every minute that you breathe
Just a gift you’re given
That’s fading so fast
Open your eyes
And handle with care
The treasure you’re keeping
Soon will be past
In simple terms come what may
No more no less
Present for a day

Signs of Life

SIGNS OF LIFE
You might loose a dream
On the waters of oblivion
Little Caesar´s preparing
Temptation´s fatal plan
While the stage is gettin´ darker
The game it turns out real
Like a fool I trusted
In the phantoms of my youth
an´ with the cheers of conquering
I overshot the mark
Grew blind out in the daylight
Finally it drove me mad
Couldn´t it be
Couldn´t it be
There was a naked sign of life
I saw a naked sign of life
Now I recover from insomnia
Price of my own deeds
But illness´s slowly fading
While I walk deserted lands
Newborn Ulysses sailing
The sea of his own holocaust
Couldn´t it be
Couldn´t it be
There was a naked sign of life
I saw a naked sign of life

Thunderstorm and Me

THUNDERSTORM AND ME
Still I count from lightning
Keep my eyes closed while I hark
But it doesn’t help I’m frightened
While I sit here in the dark
There were times we were yearning
For a thunderstorm to come
Rain would clear the air and
Fair winds separating
Thunderstorm and me
Whatever the weather
Stormy days raised by daily news
All our life becomes a rainstorm
Struck by never ending blues
It hits me like lightning
I ‘d better set my sails
Find a quiet place to settle
Many miles separating
Thunderstorm and me
Unequal rivals we will always be
Unequal rivals thunderstorm and me
Drowned by useless information
I can’t find my way
Oh this flood will finally kill me
With its updates every day
These days you find me yearning
For a little peace of mind
Ain’t no place to gimme shelter
Find no hideout separating
Thunderstorm and me
Unequal rivals we will always be
Unequal rivals thunderstorm and me

Won`t be your Fool

WON’T BE YOUR FOOL
When I get home from my job I turn on the TV
Fine men on the TV screen discussin´hunger down in Africa
They got us all by cable, shoot the latest news into our veins
Bombs over the middle east, weapons against Nicaragua
I´m not a dreamer
I won´t be your fool
Will keep my eyes wide open
Not to be your fool
Time´s ticking for the late night show, pictures of the paupers in the land of the free
The unseen speaker he`s a clevershit with a voice as cold as ice
The kids are all junkies blame them all and bankers our best friends
Our news mixed up like medicine to keep us in suspense
I´m not a dreamer
I won´t be your fool
Will keep my eyes wide open
Not to be your fool

IF I COULD
Mighty clouds they move like mountains
Raise above my head up in the sky
Like a dark weight on my soul man
Never seems to pass me by
It’s so hard to keep the balance
It’s so hard to keep the faith
Inside my chest arestless heart is beating
And I will find no resting place
I don’t have no chance to change my fate
Cause from the start it has always been too late
I wish I could change the situation
If I could if I could if I only could
Me and you and you and me, girl
We don’t talk that much these days
Something’s changed and I don’t know what
You left me stranded in a maze
I don’t even have the chance to wait
Things don’t change it’s always been too late
I wish I could change the situation
If I could if I could if I only could

Stranger`s Dream

STRANGER’S DREAM
Rattlesnake speedway winds through your mind
Electric vibes shoot through the night
In the dark of night you fight yourself
In the dark what´s obvious turns into light
Empty rooms and empty hands
Mighty memory marks the unseen chain
Strange voice callin’ in a strange tongue
Strange place to be left out in the rain
And I dream a stranger’s dream
What´s it like to live a stanger’s life
Strange face in the mirror in you hand
Strange phase I´m goin´ through
In the dark of night you fight yourself
In the dark you try to break the spell
And I dream a stranger’s dream
What´s it like to live a stanger’s life

White Lies

WHITE LIES
Even a simple man has got his dreams
Even if most of you don’t know what that means
He’s been workin’ hard to make a living man
Tryin’ to hang in there best he can
He don’t need no more white lies
Don’t you tell him no more alibis
Come down here right next to me
We can drink, we can eat, we can talk if you agree
Or we can run for another pack of gold
Racing down the roads where hearts are sold
Don’t tell me you don’t know the price
Life’s too short to live on cheap white lies
Thousand times I’m told to take their advice
Thousand times persuaded but now opened up my eyes
White lies don’t help to make a living man
White lies always fool you any day you’re living man
No matter who they are no matter what they claim
You’re not a pawn in their game
No more false excuses no more cheap white lies
What it’s worth you won’t find out before you try
I don’t want to waste my time
You go your way and I go mine
I still got my dreams, I still got my dreams my friend
Hang on to my dreams, let them last until they end
Cause white lies don’t help to make a living man
White lies just fool you any day you’re living man

Sad, So Sad

SAD, SO SAD
I hestitate, I don’t act, I dream
I write, I don’t talk, I sing
Tell me why we can’t see the world
through someone elses eye
Tell me why mostly we prefer to lie
What would you say if I tell you
you’re in my dreams
Would you turn away, would you still talk to me, would you know what I mean
But to face the fact what really makes me blue
is in the end anyway it won’t bother you
Maybe it ain’t right and I’m wrong
To put my thoughts in a song
It ain’t no sin it’s not bad
But it’s sad, so sad
I think too much, what could be, but what won’t be
Wrote your name on a paper unconsiously
Tell me how I get myself up from the floor
With this vision still burning in my core
Maybe it ain’t right and I’m wrong
To put my thoughts in a song
It ain’t no sin it’s not bad
But it’s sad, so sad

PASSENGER
Like a big train rolling
Kind of train that can’t get stopped
My life seems to move
Where no passenger is getting dropped
Where’s the sense of travelling
No stop along the line
Can’t you hear the steelrails humming
While you’re running out of time
Seems like you`re lookin’ through a window
At your life passing by before your eye
Me I watch the seasons changing
Like a drifter on his way
Everybody knows this endless circle
And I admit my beard turns grey
Still the big train keeps on rolling
Kind of train that can’t get stopped
My life seems to move
Where no passenger is getting dropped
Seems like you`re lookin’ through a window
At your life passing by before your eye

LIKE RAIN
Well I love you like rain
Well I need you just like rain
Like a flower needs rain girl
Let it rain, rain, rain
Fall down on me
Well I love you just like rain
Warm rain that falls on my head girl
The kind of rain that drives you mad
Let it rain, rain, rain
Come down on me
Well I miss you like rain
Well I need you just like rain
Like a flower needs rain girl
Let it rain, rain, rain
Fall down on me

Schluff Jull Viersen, Germany
Jamrock from Germany -
"It`s true quality music!" urteilte das Magazin Relix über
ihre Songs.
Mit ihrer Mischung aus tanzbaren Grooves, riffbetonten Rocknummern und lässigem Bar-Jazz-Soul beschwören Schluff Jull auf ihren Konzerten magische Augenblicke herauf. Und das in einem Genre, für die normalerweise Bands wie Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers oder The Band die Deutungshoheit innehaben.
