Wolf Is Good 01:02
Wolf is good Sun ain't wrong Will you join me in song No beers left Friend on right On a farm late at night

Where the hell are you going With that smile on your face Piping down to the station With no money for a sleeping place And what the hell are you doing With that suitcase in your hand Full of thoughts and memories That you promised to forget Where the fuck did that bird fly in from That built a nest up in your brain Turning every mournful stanza Into a happy refrain Like when I found you one of these mornings Sad like a rootless tree Just to frolic around in the evening Blaring out that you're free Aren't the worst things in life those that you keep nearby Weighing you down Keeping you from flying high And aren't the best things in life those that you throw away Only to retrieve them the very next day Maybe just go tomorrow To the top of Mount Killimanjaro For there to throw your sorrow Into the snow

Igalore 02:58
There obviously ain't no space for A girl with your taste no more in this place What's more Down at the lemon store Fulfillment in store for you They got it on stock it's true Abundant as apple juice Oh igalore The apathy reel entertains you A girl with your face aflame Attracted by sundry games A database knows your dreams You put them through search machines They got us on tape it seems We're outdated like paper reams Oh igalore

Three fingers for a life I spent standing on my head I waste sitting on my left Thinking of the past Two fingers in my fainted heart Stabbed like engine parts That flew apart From a dashing car We flew apart like retarded birds With hearts way too hot to feel the sun With laughs way too loud to hear the swarm Non-magnetic fools Who don't know what they do Unbridled were our hearts And ravenously hungry Underfed with a lack Of imagination Abandoned are our houses now As no one decided To live in the shithole That we loved We flew apart like retarded birds With hearts way too hot to feel the sun With laughs way too loud to hear the swarm Non-magnetic fools Who don't know what they do One finger in the wind Dry as a bone One finger in the wind No cars are heading home

River pours in at the sill To dust under carpeted ills All this treasure we’ve found in our mouths Missing stairs underneath an attic you just have to reach 
All this beauty we’ve found in our minds Richer than kings Finer than thieves hiding aces up their sleeves 
In our palace of simple things Dreaming no longer a cell
 All this shelter we’ve found in ourselves Richer than kings
 Finer than thieves hiding aces up their sleeves
 In a judiciary of amputees
 Picture their face caked in paint and pain
 Flashing paychecks in the rain
 Outside our palace of simple things

Some Italian guy is standing in front Of some Italian cafe He's whistling at the girls Some Italian girls are walking down Some Italian streets They're clicking their heels But I don't care Cause the only thing I want is you All along the waterside are sitting men Staring at the sea I guess since time began It seems like its the only way to stand the heat Staring at the sea Or staring at your feet But I don't care Cause the only thing I need is you I don't care How long it will take till we Meet again But I don't care Cause the only thing I want is you I don't care How long it will take till we Meet again Start again Once again

Seagull 03:29
If I were a seagull I would exchange my wings for gills and fins To swim with the little Fishes to their coral reef And while they'd eat their plankton and seaweed I'd start eating them tailfin first How delicious would that be Did you really think that just cause I had gills and fins I'd stop eating fish Or what Don't you see my beak and feathers If I were a seagull I'd name my kids Steven All three of them. And they'd be masters of karate Make underwater movies with elements of other martial arts And on the set of the blockbuster movies There'd obviously be fish groupies The Stevens invite them back to their trailer For some kinky seagull loving And eat them What led you to believe that I would stop eating fish Just cause I make underwater movies for fish And other underwater animals like octopi I still got webbed feet like a seagull We are two seagulls What led you to believe That just because we have gills and fins We'd stop eating fishes
8.
Feebler 02:17
You lie up in your room with the blanket drawn Over the window to keep out the dawn And the day wearies on Your eyes want no light to disturb the repose They take as the illness steadily grows And for me the day wearies on Your mind turns persistently in clarity Lent by the fever You rummage purposefully or so it seems to me Through old impressions Much as I rummage through the objects on the floor And desk in your room Trying to construct a coherent story Maybe life is a fever burning in god’s brain And he creates us inadvertently As thoughts pass in pain As the fever falls slowly his thoughts begin to fade As god regains health we become feebler Feeble, like notes lingering in an empty violin case that I found Feeble, like the knees of the convalescent and of first lovers Feeble, like your attempts to logically explain you and I

Wolfsgut 00:47
10.
Do you get up in the morning Do you put my hoodie on Do you get lost in the panels After you get there on your own And are you the John to my Yoko Is there much sense in asking at all Is it like dicing up sharks using chainsaws Or more like looking at flies on the wall Or a to-do list you just want to grow I'm your fly on the wall With a glass eye and a head full When I get up in the morning I mean if I should get up at all I always get lost in the panels You've drawn in my head when you talk And you may be the Hobbes to my Calvin But there still ain't no sense in a name And as the dorsal fins cut through the sidewalks The blue light is framing your flight I see your feet falling in the blue light I'm your fly on the wall With a glass eye and a head full There's a fly on your wall It means nothing at all If I'm your fly on the wall And I mean nothing at all Then I don't mind at all At least I can see you at all Did you get up in the morning Did you put my hoodie on

That ain't right We gotta button our lips We gotta hem up our dreams And wade around in this shit And that ain't right We gotta tighten the belt Around the waist of good taste And march in this clientele And as if that ain't enough We gotta shorten our leaves We're supposed to hand in our weekends At the end of the week And that ain't right That ain't you Spending thousands on rags And looking the mannequin From your hair to your tags That ain't me A kid who gives a fuck what you think About what he needs to buy To be a lucrative toy And everybody's selling some shit you need To use the shit that everybody else is selling If might made right We might have a chance Pf selling them back the lies that fucked with our heads But they own the right To decide who is right And we're all equal before the law Yeah equal like piles of shit on the lawn And that ain't right And everybody's selling some shit you need To use the shit that everybody else is selling

Water 04:00
Water is a feeling I never want to lose Water makes me believe I'm made of water too
13.
Eddie 02:20
Oh Eddie With a smile you came to me Oh Eddie Watching ants beneath the trees Oh Eddie Come play firemen with me Tatu tata Life is only make believe Oh Eddie At the playground you're a thief Stealing and shaking sand Let's pretend were in a racket band Oh Eddie

Nestling 01:23
And at the end of the night Step out of the dark boy The time is right Forget about the fears and the tears you cried at night There's a newborn in the nest That only needs your very best

about

The band's first full-length album was recorded in August 2013 at an old farm in Waltersdorf, Germany among rolling hills near the Czech border, just a few days before Klaus Fischer left the band to spend a year in Canada. A few songs – "Igalore" (Lüneburg, Germany), "Nestling" and "Three Fingers" (Toronto, Canada) – were recorded later to complete the album.
