lyrics

ROAD MARKS (NOT HAPPY)

Road marks in my eye
Nothing but the sound of the engine
An´the car wheels on the street rollin`by
O man I feel uneasy
Don´t know if it´s gloom or yearning
That´s spreading out inside of me
The bus driver he puts on his sun glasses
And she´s reading
From the corner of my eye I cast a glance at her skin
Oh how I wish we`d be drivin`all the way Berlin
Though I don´t even know
How to bear this sticky stillness
Only half an hour till Cologne

I´m not happy
but happieness ain´t the aim of life
But what´s wrong
with cravin` to be happy now and then
before you leave
before you leave

Out of the blue a mood it falls like a shadow
It´s a state of mind I´m used to
Start a silent conversation
like talking to myself with my back against the wall
There are so many lifes that we could live
but we´re bound to one
Follow Bobby on his bloodtakes
like I did so many times since I was young
Try imagining a place he sang
where it´s always safe and warm
Songs turn out to be my best companions
Always when I feel alone
Oh man feels great don´t have to make it all the way to Berlin
cause I found some words
that seem to break the spell
at least last thirty minutes till I´m home

I´m not happy
but happieness ain´t the aim of life
But what´s wrong
with cravin` to be happy now and then
before you leave
before you leave
But what´s wrong
with cravin` to be happy now and then
before we leave
before we leave

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.
