Taken by Aliens

Sometimes I'm walking on my road
Wondering what's fortune owed
We don't know what the future brings
We're just arranging short term things

Like if some record label
Finds out that I'm quite able
I'd become a superstar
Admired by my fans near and far

But I guess you will agree
Famous I will never be
Fortune makes some guys lucky
But for me it could be very mucky

Like if one fine day
I'll get struck by an alien ray
And through the porthole of their spaceship
Our earth gets smaller bit by bit

(Solo)

More likely I'll be proving
That everything keeps moving
And even on a sunny day
The world's not spinning round my way

What ever happens to my life
I'll stick it out with you my wife
I'll have a hand in what I can
And all the rest is given then

All the rest is given then

I wrote this text for Achim when he was seriously sick.

This melody came on me when I was strumming around on my guitar. Jo's funny and reflective lyrics have touched me deep inside strongly. Thanks to him this song became one of my three favourites on this album. Originally I was playing another one of my old school guitar solos, but then Bernie played keyboard in that same part so masterfully that we decided to put the spotlight on him and to delete the guitar.        Achim
