We do not build speedways, but roads which correspond to the character of the German landscape.

I have long been interested in landscape history, and when younger and more robust I used to do much tramping of the English landscape in search of ancient field systems, drove roads, indications of prehistoric settlement.

Loose Change
I built a house of cards
Built a house of rain
Built a house of love
Its hard to build again
Built a road to reason
Built a road to fate
Built a road to the promised land
Right up to the gate
Loose change in my pocket
Future in my hand
Too many distractions
For me to understand
Too many distractions
Got to get back home
Get into something solid
Get out of the zone
Some roads bring renewal
Some roads hide and wait
Some roads promise everything
And steal your fuel away
Loose change in my pocket
Future in my hand
Too many distractions
For me to understand
Some roads I been flyin
Some roads I crashed
Some roads I been sleepin on
Some roads I got back
Some roads I been runnin
Some roads I was stopped
Some roads I been walkin down
Some roads I was lost

I did that all the more, if I may say so, because I was aware of the fact that there is an inclination to go to extremes in German people, and in the German character generally.

The German national character is a favorite subject of character experts, probably because the less mature a nation, the more she is an object of criticism and not of history.

A lot of the jokes had some build-up to some nasty stuff. But most of it was all character situations leading to what the ultimate payoff would be for that character.

Many who build castles in the air cannot build a hut on earth.
There is nothing in which the birds differ more from man than the way in which they can build and yet leave a landscape as it was before.

Speedway
(words & music by glazer - schlaks)
Take a ton of bolt and steel
A whole lotta sweat, a set of wheels
On the speedway
The flag is down, pistons pound
Plenty of engines ripping around .. on the speedway
Go for the money and lead the pack
Push the throttle and burn the track
Curl and swirl like you doin a dance
Speedways comin and nows your chance
On the speedway, on the speedway, on the speedway
Stoke that pedal down to the floor
As much as you give, crowd wants more
More, more, more, more, more on the speedway
On the speedway
Take a spin, hit the brakes
A young little girl .. shivers and shakes
On the speedway
Clear the way, comin through
Kiss from your baby just pushin you
On the speedway
Go for the money and lead the pack
Push the throttle and burn the track
Curl and swirl like you doin a dance
Speedways comin and nows your chance
On the speedway, on the speedway, on the speedway
Stoke that pedal down to the floor
As much as you give, crowd wants more
More, more, more, more, more on the speedway
On the speedway
On the speedway, on the speedway, on the speedway
On the speedway, on the speedway, on the speedway
On the speedway, on the speedway

Build A Fire (lenny Dee Remix)
Pulled up to rest, let the engine cool awhile.
Open the beans, gather wood for the fire.
I hum this tune, to all the girls I've known.
Should I care, about the chances I've blown?
Build a fire, they're gonna build a fire
Build a fire, they're gonna build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
When daylight breaks, I'll be down that road.
Rockman 'an me, with a lighter load.
We'll stop fo r lunch, in some taco bar.
Lee Marvin on the jukebox, 'Wanderin Star'.
Build a fire, they're gonna build a fire
Build a fire, they're gonna build a fire

A Landscape Of A Woman Sleeping Naked In Bed
a woman faces her bed
forming a landscape of
hills and shadows
a forest of long hair
contours of the body
curves of roads
without the usual cars

Nudes are the greatest to paint. Everything you can find in a landscape or a still life or anything else is there: darkness and light, character dimension, texture. I painted heads too, of course.

Our Roads On Earth
Each trip commences with a step
We all have trips to make
We traverse different roads in life
As one goes up
Another goes down
Some go through long roads
Others have shorter paths to tread
Our daily trips are divine
As we journeyed towards life trips
Some roads are bumpy
Some are smooth
Some have stamina for marathon
Some move faster in a dash
Either long or short
Trials, challenges, obstacles
Are features to wrestle with on our roads
We need to be resilent
We need to damn odds
Whatever lane of the roads we are
Steadfastness is needed
Our trips on these roads
Shall end successfully
If we hold on to God..
