nothing happened
nothing happened for a long while
hello this is peter piek
and i like to tell you another dream
but it was'nt a good dream
i was sitting in a chair apathically staring
at one point on the air
nothing happened
nothing happened for a long while
then a girl came to me
she talked to me but i could'nt understand a word she said
she was out of focus
and well she was quite unpracticall for my dream
all this emptiness i had before
this point in the air
she destroyed it all
nothing happened
nothing happened for a long while
at this time i felt
that i was dreaming
and i began of wondering how
to make my dreamworld better
indeed o like to sleep
could someone wake me up
wake me up!
solo
nothing happened
nothing happened for a long while

While The Sun
02:49
|

while the sun is burning away
while the sun is burning away
people starve of hunger
one by two seconds
you kill, i kill, we kill
it's a cruel world for many of us
tell me why - why are people cruel
while the sun is burning away
while the sun is burning away
there are too many people
who've got to take their meal
out of the dustbin
share your affluence
make trade fair
while the sun is burning away
while the sun is burning away
look they invest our money
look they invest our money
look they invest our money
worldovershootday
look they invest our money
look they invest our money
look they invest our money
worldovershootday
while the sun is burning away
while the sun is burning away

everybody feels the rain
everybody feels the rain now
i really hope it's all the same
i hope its all the same now
looks like i'm going alone
i have to go with all my pain now
the day hides thes sun - well
today we wash our souls
i watch a mirror turn to sea
trees are shining golden
looks like i'm going alone
i have to go with all my pain now
looks like i'm going alone
it's an end and a new beginnig
everybody hears the rain
now we close our eyes
we're swimming in a lake now
everybody hears the rain
everybody hears the rain fall
now we close our eyes
we're swimming in a lake now
now i know
that i love her
in a white room
without a door - oh
please take me too
the start
looks like i'm going alone
i have to go with all my pain now
looks like i'm going alone
now listen to the rain drops fall

people we aren't free enough
people we aren't free enough
it's hard to make a change
smoking dream pipes
trying to find a piece of mind
everybody should have a face
in such a big place
walking in another world
all night long
and i'm so down today
and i'm longing for more music
and i don't believe in magic
people we aren't free enough
the morning brings the day
came in trouble with friends
won't find many more in live
somethimes our path will end
i have to go away
i'm sad and i'm happy too
good luck to all of you
and i'm so down today
and i'm longing for more music
and i don't believe in magic
and i'm so down today
and i'm longing for more music
and i don't believe in magic

a confrontation with myself
at a place where time
is culminating around space
and both are resolving
on a mountian without a peek
there every cut means a new begining
a confrontation with myself
what is fortune? - it is usually a moment
the capability of feeling by means of suffering
turns permanent happiness into unhappiness?
feel the ground the earth with your senses
and with your sex
and recognize that you and me
WE ARE ONE!!!!
time will come that we shall return
into her lap
death is ceasing each second
and is reincarnating each second newly
i'm laying dowm naked
my chest on the earth
when will you discover - me?
i'm deeply blue in my soul
when will i discover you
what is fortune? - it is usually a moment
the capability of feeling by means of suffering
turns permanent happiness into unhappiness?
feel the ground the earth with your senses
and with your sex
too many choices make me unhappy
i don't want to see anyone than you and me
and we would start together
would it be the same?
our children - our artwork
i'm deeply blue in my soul
when will you discover me
what is fortune? - it is usually a moment
the capability of feeling by means of suffering
turns permanent happiness into unhappiness?
feel the ground the earth with your senses
and with your sex

in your eyes
a flower is bloom
in your eyes
i walk trough the town

i'm walking and see them
i can't believe that it's happening now
your eyes are green and somethimes blue
eyes are always true

Peter Pieks 1st Dream
04:05
|
|||
Peter Piek's 1st written down dream
there is something in the air - kid
but i can't tell what it means - no
paranoia we can't play down
and we drift away
i woke up this morning
tried to sleep again
and to continue my dream
there were some unknown people
in a dusty landscape
sitting around a wooden table
they brought me a silver plate
with a thousand delicious mouthfuls
i said: 'thank you. but who's that daugther?'
back in the dawn
we took a sailing boat
and we sailed away
yeah! - we sailed away-
she said her name is ariane
and we sailed away
yeah! - we sailed away
a pirate ship under full sail with three gigantic pylons
"ariane what's going on here?" i whispered
steering wheel and ropes went on his own - no seaman - was on the ship
"where are the shoco-cookies peter?"
(solo)
"we are going in the right direction"
a skeleton came out of his cabin - oouuh
"welcome on my ship. I'm the captain!" he said
and he smelled like dead
and he told us what to do, ariane
she took my hand
and we jumped overboard
we were gliding in the air for a few seconds - splash
a red robin sang us a song - it was very rhythmic
"ariane what's going on here?" i whispered
the robin hung on thin ropes - it was a puppet
"where is the puppet-player peter?"

Time To Fly Away
03:26
|
|||
time to fly away
it's time
that we live again today
cause the morning
that is waking up in us is
red
let's dream about the seas
that we will get to know
we're not afraid
it's time to go
it's time to play
it's time to fly away
come on - lets dream together
and take me for a ride
there is much more
allthough you are everything
than you - let us dream
let us dream
we're going with the wind
the day has already
given us a lot
it's time to go
it's time to play
it's time to fly away
come on - lets dream together
and take me for a ride

You Know How I Feel
02:56
|

you know how i feel
swimming in the midsummerrain
floating across the rainbow
dancing as i want to dance
kissing because i like kissing
a warm drink in winter
see you lauhing and see you laughing
we have been dead
now we are alive
you know how i feel
your eyes are gleaming
and your smell is so good
the moon moves along to cover the sun
we have been dead
now we are alive
you know how i feel

peewee princess of the Dau & Deh
peewee princess crow up in the land of Dau & Deh
she was lovely and petite
always looked frail
she had black eyes like two deep lakes
and she was highly musical
again she could conjure
she always could differ good and bad before
she was so sensitive and wise
that her great people never suffered hunger
cos she could feel it all
and her realm was full of painted colours
as the macigians here from the beautifull princess
they wanted to wrest the mistery of here macig
but she took the Dau & Deh with her
in her heart and left her land
but she took the Dau & Deh with her
in her heart and left her land
she donatetd the Dau & Deh to the entire world
and the universe
today hardly no one knows
the Dau & Deh today
and no one knows the peewee princess
but someone who takes care
feels the Dau & Deh still today
in a big world
feels the Dau & Deh still today
in a big world
they are there and protect it all
this is how Sobolewski's farytail ends
but just let me tell you one more thing
in a far day when many words are silent
something strange will happen
by Peter Piek
Die kleine Prinzessin
Die kleine Prinzessin wuchs im Land des Dau und De auf.
Sie war hübsch und zierlich, ja fast zerbrechlich anzuschauen, hatte schwarze Augen wie zwei tiefe Seen und war sehr musikalisch.
Außerdem konnte sie zaubern: Sie konnte immer Gut und Böse vorher unterscheiden.
Sie war so sensibel und benervt, daß ihr großes Volk nie Hunger litt, weil sie alles fühlen konnte.
Und ihr Reich war voller bunter Farben.
Als die Magier von der schönen Prinzessin hörten, wollten sie ihr das Geheimnis ihres Zaubers entreißen.
Als das die kleine Prinzessin fühlte, denn sie konnte alles fühlen, nahm sie das Dau und De in ihrem Herzen mit und verließ ihr Land.
Weil die Prinzessin nicht nur schön, sondern auch klug war, schenkte sie das Dau und De der ganzen Welt und dem Universum.
Die Magier wurden so also von der Prinzessin ohne zu kämpfen schon vorher besiegt.
Nun lebt die hübsche Prinzessin lange und glücklich und unerkannt an einem anderen Ort.
Kaum einer kennt heute noch das Dau und De.
Und die kleine Prinzessin kennt auch keiner.
Wer sich aber die Mühe gibt, fühlt das Dau und De noch heute in der großen Welt.
Sie sind immer da und beschützen alles.
So endet mein kleines Märchen.
An einem fernen Tag, wenn viele Worte schweigen, wird etwas Seltsames geschehen.
(Klaus Sobolewski, 21.06.2006)

the peanut conversation blues song
here i swim
with this fine guitar
playin' - the blues again
i've come back to my roots
i've come back to my roots yeah!
here i swim
in this old old river
drifting along downstream
i'm down on my knees yeah!
i'm down on my knees
solo
here i'm laying in the water
don't know what to do
i try to search for stones
but i can not breathe
i drink some water make some bubbles
and when the night comes
i have a look at the stars
one day i meet a peanut
and we have a little conversation
'what do you do here? you can not swim'
'you are a peanut! get out of here
to where you once belonged.'
here i'm diving with all these fish
sometimes they talk to me
they say: 'why do you breathe air?'
and i say: 'i don't know'
and i say: 'i don't know'
