More or Less - Frankie Big Face
Act One: We are out and having fun
The butterflies are fluttering behind my cummerbund
Act Two: I'm really into you
And I'm getting the impression that you want me too
Before the intermission
When I try to sneak a kiss in
You alter your position
And I'm drained of my ambition
CHORUS
More or less, It's cruel to make me guess
Communication shouldn't be a Rorschach Test
And I won't lie, no I'll happily confess
That I'm finding more and more
That I want you less and less
Act Three: You try to make it up to me
Whispering sweet nothings, getting shushed by an old lady
Act Four: It's clear that you want more
Every passing minute's longer than the one before
Now the play is over
And your head is on my shoulder
But when I start my motor
You become a whistle-blower
CHORUS
Unless we change the way we do business
We're bound to slow to a halt—it's basic physics
One body in motion and the other at rest
Might induce friction but it's making me depressed
CHORUS
Nur Ein VII - More or Less

Re: Nur Ein VII - More or Less
More or Less
By Ross Durand
Do you want more or less?
Just say "when"
You can always come back and get your cup filled up again
Unless the well runs out
And the river runs dry
Because these days you never know
what will happen with those guys
Upstream
They're taking everything
Just because they can
More or less
Have you got more or less?
That's how it's got to be
Cause these days there don't seem to be
Anything in between
Them what's got shall get
Them what's not, that's us
So when the well runs dry
We're the one's who'll be making
Making all the fuss
And we'll do without, just because we must
More or less
Land of the free and the home of the brave
Everybody get out your flags and wave
Cause we're living in the new-improved US
1% More, 99% less
More or less, I'm just an average guy
With his average dreams of a piece of the pie
You know I don't really care what kind it turns out to be
Or how big the slice is
As long I get some Ice cream
One the side to make it go down smooth
Cause Mr. Pie Man, you know we know
Exactly what you do
When our cup runneth empty, our tap does, too
Less for us is more for you
More or less
And some day, you know, we all hope you get your due
More or less.
