House With no Door - Life for Sale


There's a house with no door and I'm living there


at nights it gets so cold and the days are hard to bear inside.


There's a house with no roof, so the rain creeps in,


falling through my head as I try to think out time

I don't know you, you say you know me, there's so much that I am unsure of ...


There's a house with no bell, but then nobody calls;


I sometimes find it hard to tell if any are alive at all outside...



There's a house with no sound; yes, it's quiet there, there's not much point in words if there's no-one to share in time.




I've learned my lines, I am ready to tell whoever will finally come in


 
There's a house with no door


and there's no living there: one day it became a wall well I didn't really care at the time.


There's a house with no light,


all the windows are sealed,


overtaxed and strained NOW NOTHING IS REVEALED BUT TIME









There's a house with no door and I'm living there

at nights it gets so cold
and the days are hard to bear inside.
There's a house with no roof, so the rain creeps in,
falling through my head as I try to think out time.
I don't know you, you say you know me,
that may be so,
there's so much that I am unsure of ...
You call my name, but it sounds unreal,
I forget how I feel, my body's rejecting the cure.
There's a house with no bell, but then nobody calls;
I sometimes find it hard to tell
if any are alive at all outside.
There's a house with no sound; yes, it's quiet there
there's not much point in words
if there's no-one to share in time.
I've learned my lines, I know them so well,
I am ready to tell
whoever will finally come in
Of the line in my mind that's cold in the night,
it doesn't seem right
when there's that little dark figure running ...
There's a house with no door
and there's no living there:
one day it became a wall ...
well I didn't really care at the time.
There's a house with no light,
all the windows are sealed,
overtaxed and strained NOW NOTHING IS REVEALED BUT TIME
I don't know you, you say you know me,
that may be so,
there's so much that I am unsure of ...
You call my name, but it sounds unreal,
I forget how I feel,
my body's rejecting the cure .....
Won't somebody help me ......?

Photographs were taken in BUCHAREST & TIMISOARA
and reveals my feelings about cities.
The first one is outside the box.(from Thasos)

What If God Was One Of Us - People



What if God was one of us?


Just a slob like one of us 

 Just a stranger on the bus



 Trying to make his way home



 If God had a face what would it look like?



 And would you want to see if seeing meant that you would have to believe

 in things like heaven

and in Jesus and the saints and all the prophets


Nobody calling on the phone


 Back up to heaven all alone

Van Der Graaf Generator - House With No Door lyrics



Nu-i nimic, e-n regulă,
mai aşteptăm două sute de ani,

ce-o să fie, un biet accident istoric,
o socoteală matematică greşită,
suntem în Estul Europei, nu uitaţi.
Ruşii, da, Maghiarii, da,
Polonezii, da, Bulgarii, da,
noi, nu, noi nu, noi nu progresăm,
că se interpretează,
când nu voiau vecinii,
noi nu puteam, n-aveam voie,
când vor vecinii,
nu vrem noi, n-avem nevoie,
asta e, aşa suntem noi, ai dracului,
daţi în Paşte, asta e, daţi în Paşte,
nu-i nimic, e-n regulă,
mai vedem noi, mai vedem,
aveţi răbdare, nu bateţi din picioare,
nu vă pripiţi
noi regresăm cu plăcere,
noi regresăm cu talent,
noi nu ne luăm după nimeni
decât când regresează.
Două sute de ani! Atât!
Aveţi răbdare, nu chemaţi salvarea,
nu exageraţi, nu cricniţi,
regresaţi cu noi!

Înapoi, marş!

Adrian Păunescu Regresăm
