I'm Your Man
written by fergus o'farrell & malcolm mac clancy
I'll be your father or your knight of love Devine.
I will be your punishment and strip you in the cold moonshine.
I’ll be your memory and quietly slip away.
I’ll present you with all religion and give you a ring every day.
Cause I am your man.
I’ll be unworthy when I lick between your lips.
A slave to show you cowardice. A bold pirate and captain of ships.
I’ll be a crucifix when I nail myself to your skin.
I will beg forgiveness from God and gently cleanse your sins.
Cause I am your man.
I’ll be Lord Byron if you want to be naked and free.
I’ll be Lord Jesus if you’re caught in a storm at sea.
I will bring you peace and rid your soul of fear.
I will bring you relief if you are lost in a veil of tears.
Cause I am your man.
I will ask for nothing:
But a promise for eternity.
And a vow to grant me your body.
And a charge to rule your destiny.
La La La.

Vaj Vaj
written by fergus o'farrell & malcolm mac clancy
additional lyrics by camilla griehsel (swedish) and niwel tsumbu (lingala)
If Vaj Vaj left today.
I wonder if I’d last.
The bodies slow decay.
But you cannot stop the time nor the rain
So blue because I love you.
Horses stumbling.
I saw the carriage stall.
Where a face was turning
To hear the words that fall like the rain
So blue because I love you.
Drag drag go the waves.
Claw down a poisoned shore.
The footsteps in the sand
Are gone for evermore just like the rain
So blue because I love you.
Mysteries are silent,
Here in the air or stone.
They stare at me like precious idols
From the temple of bone
Through to the rain
So blue because I love you.
Mysterier är tysta
De finns i stenarna och i luften
Fotspåren är borta för alltid
Man kan inte stoppa tiden
Man kan inte stanna regnet
Tack älskade mamma
Jag älskar dig
Jag älskar dig
Jag älskar dig
Jag älskar dig

Something Right
written by fergus o'farrell, maurice seezer & malcolm mac clancy
I thought my problem was an empty bowl,
until my bowl was filled.
I thought my sorrow was having to move,
until my movement stilled.
I thought my fear was of the dark,
until I turned on the light.
I thought that I could do nothing wrong,
until I did something right.
I was dreaming I could touch the stars
when I fell out of my tree.
I was Always laughing at somebody else,
‘till the joke turned on me.
I thought my courage meant I’d never loose,
until I gave up the fight.
I thought that I could do nothing wrong,
until I did something right.
Do you ever feel wonder, but nothing to touch?
yet touched is all you feel.
I thought of a mountain as something to climb,
and not something to rise…. in me.
I thought the world was a shallow place,
’till I was lost at sea.
I thought my strength was in standing alone,
’till the ground gave beneath my feet.
And all my hopes were tied up in dreams…..
until the end of the night.
I thought that I could do nothing wrong, Until I did something right.
I thought that I could do nothing wrong, Until I did something right.

I Owe You Nothing

I Owe You Nothing
written by malcolm mac clancy
Dime Mama
Tell me ...
Do the words owe the melody
does the bird owe its song.
Do the waves owe the ocean,
or the moonbeams the sun.
Does the dance owe the foot.
or the foot owe the shoe.
Does the bullet owe the barrel,
or the sniper that shoots.
I owe you nothing
except everything I own
And all I see in my world.
and all that’s left unknown.
