Song Lyrics as Go Proverbs
English Lyrics
- "Going To A Go Go" by Smokey Robinson:
Well there's a brand new place I found
People coming from miles around
They come from everywhere
If you drop in there
You see everyone in town
It doesn't matter if you're black
It doesn't matter if you're white
Take a dollar fifty
A six pack of beer
And we goin' dance all night
- "I've Seen All Good People" by Yes
Move me on to any black square,
Use me any time you want,
Just remember that the goal
'Sfor us to capture all we want, anywhere,
Yea, yea, yea.
Don't surround yourself with yourself,
Move on back two squares,
Send an Instant Karma to me,
Initial it with loving care
Don't surround
Yourself. 'Cause it's time, it's time in time with your time
and its news is captured
German Lyrics
- "Orpheus and Euridike", opera by Gluck:
Ach ich habe sie verloren,
all mein Glück ist nun dahin.
Wär', ach wär' ich nie geboren,
weh, dass ich am Leben bin!
