Power Cut Songtext
von JJ Lovegrove

I still dream of California
Peach trees, beauty queens and trailers
But guilt, it always wakes me with a pinch

I′m picking flowers, blowing wishes
Pedalling fast, surviving on lipids
A timezone change could make up for lost time

But when he lies
It's like breaking the chains on my bike
And I′m spinning, spinning
In the middle lane of my life
Why's it always me that has to be the metal in your teeth?

I want a life without a clenched fist
A family, more than passing glances
But Herodotus left his sons behind to fight


Must it always be his-story?
Dawn is finally breaking in me
And I am grabbing hold of power lines

But when he lies
It's like breaking the chains on my bike
And I′m spinning, spinning
In the middle lane of my life
Why′s it always me that has to be the metal in your teeth?

A power cut would be nice
A power cut would be nice
(When he lies)
A power cut would be nice
(And I'm spinning, spinning)
(In the middle lane of my life)

A power cut would be nice
(The metal in your teeth)
A power cut would be nice
A power cut would be nice
