Zooropa
Vorsprung durch Technik
Zooropa
Be all that you can be
Be a winner, eat to get thinner
Zooropa
A bluer kind of white
Zooropa
It could be yours tonight
We're mild and green and squeaky clean
Zooropa
Better by design
Zooropa
Fly the friendly skies
Through applience of science we've got that ring of confidence
And I have no compass and I have no map
And I have no reasons, no resons to get back
And I have no religion and I don't know what's what
And I don't know the limit, the limit of what we got
Zooropa
Don't worry baby, it'll be alright
Zooropa
You've got the right shoes to get you through the night
Zooropa
It's cold outside but brightly lit
Zooropa
Skip the subway, let's go to the overground
Get your head out of the mud baby
Put flowers in the mud, baby, overground
No particular place names, no particular song
I've been hiding, what am I hiding from
Zooropa
Don't worry baby, it's gonna be alright
Zooropa
Uncertainty can be a guiding light
Zooropa
I hear voices, ridiculous voices in the slipstream
Zooropa
Let's go, let's go overground
Take your head out of the mud baby
She's gonna dream up the world she wants to live in
She's gonna dream out loud
Dream out loud
Dream out loud
Babyface (U2) - 4:00
Catching your bright blue eyes in the freeze frame
I've seen them so many times
I feel like I must be your best friend
You're looking fine, so fine, oh my
Dressed up like a lovely day
Babyface, babyface
Slow down child, let me untie your lace
Babyface, babyface
Cover girl with natural grace
How could beauty be so kind to an ordinary guy
Coming home late at night to turn you on
Checking out every frame
I got slow motion on my side
Turning around and around
With the sound and colour under my control
Round and around, going down
Dressed up like a lovely day
Babyface, babyface
Tinfoil hair all tied up in lace
Babyface, babyface
Bittersweet girl, won't you give me a taste
How could beauty be so kind to an ordinary guy
Babyface, babyface
Slow down child, let me untie your lace
Babyface, babyface
Open that door, let me unpack my case
Babyface, babyface
You're everywhere child, you're all over the place
Babyface, babyface
You're coming to me from outterspace
How could beauty be so kind to an ordinary guy
Numb (U2) - 4:18
Don't move
Don't talk out of time
Don't think
Don't worry
Everything's just fine
Just fine

Lemon (U2) - 6:56
Lemon, see through in the sunlight
She wore lemon but never in the daylight
She’s gonna make you cry
She’s gonna make you whisper and moan
When you’re dry she draws her water from the stone
And I feel like I’m slowly, slowly, slowly slipping under
And I feel like I’m holding onto nothing
She wore lemon to colour in the cold, grey night
She had heaven and she held on so tight
A man makes a picture, a moving picture
Through light projected he can see himself up close
A man captures colour, a man likes to stare
He turns his money into light to look for her
And I feel like I’m drifting, drifting, drifting from the shore
And I feel like I’m swimming out to her
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Lemon, see through in the sunlight
A man builds a city with banks and cathedrals
A man melts the sands so he can see the world outside
You’re gonna meet her there
A man makes a car
She’s your destination
And builds a road to run them on
You gotta get to her
A man dreams of leaving
She’s imagination
But he always stays behind
And these are the days when our work has come asunder
And these are the days when we look for something other
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
Midnight is where the day begins
A man makes a picture, a moving picture
Through light projected he can see himself up close
You’re gonna meet her there
A man captures colour
She’s your destination
A man likes to stare
There’s no sleeping there
He turns his money into light to look for her
She’s imagination
Lemon
She is the dreamer, she’s imagination
She had heaven
Through the light projected he can see himself up close
She wore lemon
Stay (Faraway, So Close!) (U2) - 4:58
Green light, 7-Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
The wheels are turning but you're upside down
You say when he hits you you don't mind
Because when he hurts you you feel alive
Oh now, is that what it is
Red light, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay up to watch the adverts
You could lip-synch to the talk shows
And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk it's not to me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing
If I could stay, then the night would give you up
Stay, and the day would keep its trust
Stay, and the night would be enough
Faraway, so close up with the static and the radio
With satellite television you can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast and Berlin
And if you listen I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you
If I could stay then the night would give you up
Stay then the day would keep its trust
Stay with the demons you drowned
Stay with the spirit I found
Stay and the night would be enough
Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there's no one around
Just the bang and the clatter as an angel runs to ground
Just the bang and the clatter as an angel hits the ground
Daddy's Gonna Pay for Your Crashed Car (U2) - 5:19
Daddy’s Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car
You're a precious stone
You're out on your own
You know everyone in the world
But you feel alone
Daddy won't let you weep
Daddy won't let you ache
Daddy gives you as much as you can take
A-ha sha-la, a-ha sha-la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
A little uptight
You're a baby's fist
Butterfly kisses up and down your wrist
When you see daddy coming
You're licking your lip
Nails bitten down to the quick
A-ha sha-la, a-ha sha-la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
You've got a head full of traffic
You're a siren's song
You cry for mama
And daddy's right along
He gives you the keys to a flaming car
Daddy's with you wherever you are
Daddy's a comfort
Daddy's your best friend
Daddy'll hold your hand right up to the end
A-ha sha-la, a-ha sha-la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday's alright
Some Days Are Better Than Others (U2) - 4:15
Some days are dry
Some days are leaky
Some days come clean
Other days are sneaky
Some days take less but most days take more
Some slip through your fingers and onto the floor
Some days your quick but most days you're speedy
Some days you use more force than is necessary
Some days just drop in on us
Some days are better than others
Some days it all adds up and what you've got is enough
Some days are better than others
Some days are slippy
Other days sloppy
Some days you can't stand the sight of a puppy
Your skin is white but you think you're a brother
Some days are better than others
Some days you wake up with her complaining
Some sunny days you wish it was raining
Some days are sulky
Some days have a grin
Some days have bouncers and won't let you in
Some days you hear a voice taking you to another place
Some days are better than others
Some days are honest
Some days are not
Some days you're thankful for what you've got
Some days you wake up in the army
And some days it's the enemy
Some days you work
Most days you're lazy
Some days you feel like a bit of a baby
Looking for Jesus and His mother
Some days are better than others
Some days you feel ahead
You're making sense of what she said
Some days are better than others
Some days you hear a voice taking you to another place
Some days are better than others
The First Time (U2) - 3:45
I have a lover, a lover like no other
She got soul soul soul, sweet soul
And she teach me how to sing
Shows me colours when there's none to see
Gives me hope when I can't believe
But for the first time I feel love
I have a brother when I'm a brother in need
I spend my whole time running
He spends his running after me
I feel myself goin' down
I just call and he comes around
But for the first time I feel love
My father is a rich man, he wears a rich man's cloak
Gave me the keys to his kingdom coming
Gave me a cup of gold
He said 'I have many mansions
And there are many rooms to see'
But I left by the back door
And I threw away the key
And I threw away the key
Yeah, I threw away the key
Yeah, I threw away the key
For the first time
For the first time
For the first time I feel love
Dirty Day (Bono, Edge) - 5:24
I don't know you and
You don't know the half of it
I had a staring role
I was the bad guy who walked out
They say be careful where you aim
Because where you aim you just might hit
You can hold onto something so tight
You've already lost it
Dragging me down
That's not the way it used to be
You can't even remember what I'm trying to forget
It was a dirty day
A dirty day
You want explainations
I don't even understand
If you need someone to blame
Throw a rock in the air
You're bound to hit someone guilty
From father to son
In one life has begun
A work that's never done
Father to son
And love, it won't last kissin' time
And love, it won't last kissin' time
And love, it won't last kissin' time
Get it right
There's no blood thicker than ink
Hear what I say
Nothing's a simple as you think
Wake up
Somethings you can't get around
I'm in you
Moreso when they put me in the ground
Hank says
The days, days, days
Run away like horses over the hill
The days, days, days
Run away like horses over the hill
The days, days, days
Run away like horses over the hill
The days, days, days
Run away like horses over the hill
The days, days, days
Run away like horses over the hill
The days, days, days
Run away like horses over the hill
The days, days, days
Run away like horses over the hill
The days, days, days
Run away like horses over the hill
The Wanderer (Bono, Clayton, Edge, Mullen) - 4:44
I went out walking through streets paved with gold
Lifted some stones
Saw the skin and bones of a city without a soul
I went out walking under an atomic sky
Where the ground won't turn and the rain
It burns like the tears when I said goodbye
Yeah I went with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering
I went drifting through the capitals of tin
Where men can't walk or freely talk
And sons turn their fathers in
I stopped outside a church house
Where the citizens like to sit
They say they want the kingdom
But they don't want God in it
I went out riding down that old eight lane
I passed by a thousand signs
Looking for my own name
I went with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you
I went out there in search of experience
To taste and to touch and to feel
As much as a man can before he repents
I went out searching, looking for one good man
A spirit who would not bend or break
Who would sit at his father's right hand
I went out walking with a bible and a gun
The word of God lay heavy on my heart
I was sure I was the one
Now Jesus, don't you wait up
Jesus I'll be home soon
Yeah, I went out for the papers
Told her I'd be back by noon
Yeah, I left with nothing
But the thought you'd be there too
Looking for you
Yeah, I left with nothing
Nothing but the thought of you
I went wandering
