This is all -, this will be in our new album
It's our last single called, "The Boxer"
I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles such are promises
All lies and jest
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest, mhmm
When I left my home and my family
I was no more than a boy
In the company of strangers
In the quiet of a railway station running scared
Laying low, seeking out the poorer quarters
Where the ragged people go
Looking for the places only they would know
Asking only workman's wages
I come looking for a job
But I get no offers
Just a come-on from the whores on Seventh Avenue
I do declare there were times when I was so lonesome
I took some comfort there
Now the years are rolling by me
They are rocking evenly
I am older than I once was
And younger than I'll be, that's not unusual
It isn't strange after changes upon changes
We are more or less the same
After changes we are more or less the same
Then I'm laying out my winter clothes
And wishing I was gone, going home
Where the New York City winters aren't bleeding me
Leading me, going home
In the clearing stands a boxer
And a fighter by his trade
And he carries the reminders
Of every glove that laid him down
And cut him 'til he cried out
In his anger and his shame
"I am leaving, I am leaving"
But the fighter still remains, mhmm
Rock-, Soul oder Party-Kracher, Country, Gypsy-Swing, Latin, Folk ... Mit dem wahrscheinlich buntesten Stilmix, seit es Unplugged-Trios gibt, bringt das Trio ihr Publikum zum Tanzen, Mitsingen oder auch einfach zum verzückten Zuhören und Träumen. Die drei erfahrenen Vollblutmusiker spielen bekannte internationale Songs aus der Zeit, in der Rock’n Roll noch nicht aus dem Telefon kam und man mp3 für einen neuen Roboter aus Star Trek gehalten hätte.
„Nice Surprise“ sind: Yvonne Sipek – Gesang, Small Percussion, Danijel Sipek – Bass, Stomp Box, Peter Nimtsch – Akustikgitarre, Gesang
