anbei die Lyrics und Credits zu: SEA CHANGE !!!

01 . The Golden Age 4.35 Put your hands on the wheel / Let the golden age
begin / Let the window down / Feel the moonlight on your skin / Let the
desert wind cool your aching head / Let the weight of the world drift away
instead / These days I barely get by / I don’t even try / It’s a treacherous
road with a desolated view / There’s distant lights but here they’re far and
few / And the sun don’t shine even when its day / You gotta drive all night
just to feel like you’re ok / These days I barely get by / I don’t even try
> Beck – vocals, acoustic guitar, synth, glockenspiel / Justin – electric
bass / Roger – synth, wurlitzer, glockenspiel / Smokey – electric guitar /
Joey – drums, percussion

02 . Paper Tiger 4.36 Just like a paper tiger / Torn apart by idle hands /
Through the helter skelter morning / Fix yourself while you still can / No
more ashes to ashes / No more cinders from the sky / let All the laws of
creation / Tell a dead man how to die / Oh deserts down below us / And
storms up above / Like a stray dog gone defective / Like a paper tiger in
the sun / Looking through a broken diamond / To make the past what it should
be / Through the ruins and the weather / Capsized boats in the sea / Oh
deserts down below us / And storms up above / Like a stray dog gone
defective / Like a paper tiger in the sun / We’re just holding on to nothing
/ To see how long nothing lasts / Oh deserts down below us / And storms up
above / Like a stray dog gone defective / Like a paper tiger in the sun >
Beck – vocals / James Gadson – drums / Justin – electric bass / Jason
Faulkner – electric guitar / David Campbell – string arrangement &
conducting / Joey – perc / Nigel – keys, perc

03 . guess i’m doing fine 4.49 There’s a blue bird at my window / I can’t
hear the songs he sings / All the jewels in heaven / They don’t look the
same to me / I just wade the tides that turned / Till I learn to leave the
past behind / It’s only lies that I’m living / It’s only tears that I’m
crying / It’s only you that I’m losing / Guess I’m doing fine / All the
battlements are empty / And the moon is laying low / Yellow roses in the
graveyard / Got no time to watch them grow / Now I bade a friend farewell /
I can do whatever pleases me / It’s only lies that I’m living / It’s only
tears that I’m crying / It’s only you that I’m losing / Guess I’m doing fine
/ Press my face up to the window / To see how warm it is inside / See the
things that I’ve been missing / Missing all this time / It’s only lies that
I’m living / It’s only tears that I’m crying / It’s only you that I’m losing
/ Guess I’m doing fine > Beck – vocals, acoustic guitar, synth, harmonica,
background vocals / Justin – electric bass, background vocals / Roger –
piano, clavinet, background vocals / Smokey – electric guitar / Joey –
drums, percussion, background vocals / Nigel – synth

04 . lonesome tears 5.38 Lonesome tears / I can’t cry them anymore / I
can’t think of what they’re for / Oh they ruin me every time / But I’ll try
to leave behind some days / these tears just can’t erase / I don’t need them
anymore / How could this love / Ever turning / Never turn its eye on me /
How could this love / Ever changing / Never change the way I feel / Lazy sun
your eyes catch the light / with promises that might / come true for awhile
/ Oh I’ll ride farther than I should / harder than I could / just to meet
you there / How could this love / Ever turning / Never turn its eye on me /
How could this love / Ever changing / Never change the way I feel > Beck –
vocals, keyboards / Justin – electric bass, electric guitar / Smokey –
acoustic guitar / David Campbell – string arrangement & conducting / Joey –
percussion / James Gadson Drums / Nigel – Keys

05 . lost cause 3.47 Your sorry eyes cut through the bone / They make it
hard to leave you alone / Leave you here wearing your wounds / Waving your
guns at somebody new / Baby you’re lost / Baby you’re lost / Baby you’re a
lost cause / There’s too many people you used to know / They see you coming
/ they see you go / They know your secrets and you know theirs / This town
is crazy / nobody cares / Baby you’re lost / Baby you’re lost / Baby you’re
a lost cause / I’m tired of fighting / I’m tired of fighting / Fighting for
a lost cause / There’s a place where you are going / You ain’t never been
before / No one left to watch your back now / No one standing at your door /
Ain’t that’s what you thought love was for / Baby you’re lost / Baby you’re
lost / Baby you’re a lost cause / I’m tired of fighting / I’m tired of
fighting / Fighting for a lost cause > Beck – vocals, acoustic guitar,

06 . end of the day 5.03 Seen the end of the day come too soon / Not a lot
to say / Not a lot to do / You played the game / You owe nothing to yourself
/ Rest today for tomorrow you can’t tell / You can’t tell / Seen the end of
the day come too late / Seen the love you had turning into hate / Had to act
like I didn’t even care / but I did so I got stranded standing there /
standing there / It’s nothing that I haven’t seen before / but it still
kills me like it did before / Seen the end of the day come too soon / like
the prison dogs they sent out after you / You owe nothing to the past but
wasted time / to serve a sentence that was only in your mind / In your mind
/ It’s nothing that I haven’t seen before / but it still kills me like it
did before > Beck – vocals, acoustic guitar / Justin – electric bass / Roger
– clavinet / Smokey – acoustic slide guitar / James – drums / Joey –
percussion / Nigel – Keyboards

07 . it’s all in your mind 3.05 Well its all in your mind / Its all in
your mind / Well it’s all in your mind / And I wanted to be / I wanted to be
/ Wanted to be your good friend / Well I cannot believe / you got a devil up
your sleeve / and he’s talking to me / and I cannot believe / And I wanted
to be / I wanted to be your good friend / You’re all scared and stiff / a
sick stolen gift / And the people you’re with / they’re all scared and stiff
/ And I wanted to be / Wanted to be your good friend > Beck – vocals,
acoustic guitar, electric guitar, wurlitzer, synth / Justin – upright bass /
Roger – wurlitzer, synth / Smokey – acoustic guitar, electric guitar / Joey

08 . round the bend 5.15 We don’t have to worry / Life goes where it does
/ faster than a bullet / from an empty gun / Turn yourself over / Loose
change we could spend / Grinding down diamonds / round round round the bend
/ People pushing harder / up against themselves / make their daggers sharper
/ than their faces tell / Babe, its your time now / Loose change we could
spend / Where we are going / round round round the bend > Beck – vocals,
acoustic guitar, string arrangement / Justin – upright bass / David Campbell
– string arrangement & conducting / Nigel – String treatment

09 . already dead 2.59 Time wears away / all the pleasures of the day /
all the
treasures you could hold / Days turn to sand / losing strength in every hand
/ they can’t hold you anymore / Already dead to me now / ‚cuz it feels like
I’m watching something die / Love looks away / in the harsh light of the day
/ On the edge of nothing more / days fade to black / in the light of what
they lack / Nothing’s measured by what it needs / Already dead to me now /
‚cuz it feels like I’m watching something dyin‘ > Beck – vocals, acoustic
guitar / Justin – electric bass / Smokey – acoustic guitar / James – drums

10 . sunday sun 4.44 Haven’t got a lot to learn / And my eyes they stray
again / looking for a satellite / in the rays of heaven again / There’s no
other ending / Sunday sun / yesterday is ending / Sunday sun / Jealous minds
walk in a line / and their faces jade the strain / stranded in infinity
rooms / and they’re safe from any harm / There’s no other ending / Sunday
sun / yesterdays are mending / Sunday sun > Beck – vocals, acoustic guitar,

11 . little one 4.27 Go to sleep / we’re so tired now / altogether in a
snake pit of souls / New days / to throw your chains away / to try to hang
your hopes on the wind / Little one / just a little way / today all we need
is waiting / Night rise / like the evening prize / in a turnstile backwards
we fly / Cold bones / tied together by / black ropes we pulled from a swing
/ Little one / just a little way / today all of the dreams are waking /
Can’t stand on crooked legs / I’m cross-eyed to the wall / in these harbor
lights / satellites explode / Drown drown / sailors run aground / in a sea
change nothing is safe / Strange waves / push us every way / In a stolen
boat we’ll float away / Little one / hold on, hold on / all of the dreams
are wasting > Beck – vocals, background vocals, acoustic guitar, electric
guitar, percussion / Justin – electric bass, background vocals, percussion /
Roger – piano, background vocals, percussion / Jason – electric guitar,
background vocals, percusion / Joey – drums, background vocals, percussion

12 . side of the road 3.24 Something better than this / Someplace I’d like
to go / to let all I’ve learned / tell me what I know / about the kind of
life / I never thought I’d live / Till the ugly truth / showed me what it
did / Let it pass / on the side of the road / What a friend could tell me
now / On a borrowed dime / in different light / you might see what / the
other side looks like / In a random room / behind an iron door / kick an
empty can / across an empty floor / Let it pass / on the side of the road /
What a friend could tell me now > Beck – vocals, acoustic guitar / Justin –
upright bass / Roger – Wurlitzer / Smokey – acoustic slide guitar / Joey –
