 P.Rob Lem

Well, you know it´s sometimes hard - what to say and how to start
Like a paper blank and white - too much wine and sleepless nights
That´s the story of P.Rob Lem - lookin for what to tell them
Chasing round just like a fool - "Be ambitious!", that´s his rule
Don´t waste time - a word´s a tool
Use it, open up their minds - to make a better world

So you see him hunt the streets - for good ideas to fill his sheets
His enemy (is called) triviality - and what he hates is simplicity  
Up and down, to and fro - there must be something people want to know
Racks his brain, but nothing in - so he don´t know where to begin
Got no idea - emptyness within
A writers brain, filled with pain - until he hears a voice:

     Take a look around, you fool
    The sun is shining, the world is in bloom
    And bodies are tanned again
    Why do you care what people say
    Come on, you grouch! Enjoy the day
    Let´s have some fun again

P. Rob Lem turned around - and replied with a frown
So you think it´s better then - to write of nothing or lay down the pen
Sing "Chirpy Cheep" and "Aloha He" - Is there nothing more to say
Equal rights or humanity  - children´s labour, atrocities
Torture - war and dignity
How can you put down your thoughts - and switch off your brain?

    Take a look around, you boy
    Hear children laughing, playing with their toys
    Here in the streets again
    Palm trees grow everywhere around
    (And) here in my arms you can feel safe and sound
    Let´s have some fun again
 

Problems you can´t solve alone
Especially when you´re heart has gone
And beauty doesn´t last forever
Something must be done...


    Take a look around you man
    Letting go is important now and then
    It makes you strong again
    Gather your strength for another try
    Distract yourself and this worry will pass on by
    Let´s have some fun again
