"Schieß den Bock" was created in chinese whisper. we agreed that I write the first verse,, I only told Tonia the last harmony, tempo, and the last word of the verse..
We are then extended to the last line, ´cause it was too difficult and so Tonia wrote the chorus.
I have already played "Schieß den Bock" live - great fun. More of that!
Tonia Reeh is a musical force of nature. I have always adored her playing skills, she is uncompromising, their lyrics are literally on the razor's edge, her compositions are complex and disturbing with incredible pop moments.
We know each other from the early days of my time in Berlin, about 1995/6.
In 2012, we went on tour for my last album “Sweet Silence”. We played double bills:
she played drums and keyboard bass (simultaneously!) with my live set, I accompanied her in turn on keyboard, drums and vocals
Tonia Reeh´s last album "Fight of the stupid" is a milestone, a grand wonderful piano album. I accompanied her with Rudi Fischerlehner on two concerts in Berlin on keyboards / vocals and vibes.
Lyrics
Du willst alles und noch ein bisschen mehr
Ich genauso
Komm wir jagen hinterher
Ich schiess den Bock
Du lachst Dich tot
Über Stein und Stock
Von hier nach dort
Ich will alles und noch ein bisschen mehr
Du genauso
Komm wir jagen hinterher
Du schläfst nicht ein
Es tropft und tropft
Auf den heissen Stein
Mit müdem Kopf
Yeah, yeah yeah
She wakes me up
Yeah, yeah yeah
She makes me up
Yeah, yeah yeah
She hits the road
Yeah, yeah yeah
She´s got the guts
Du hast alles und noch ein bisschen mehr
Wir genauso
Komm wir feiern hinterher
Ein Satz, ein Blick
Ein Weg, der Ort
Und nun der Trick
Jetzt ist sofort
Yeah, yeah yeah
She wakes me up
Yeah, yeah yeah
She makes me up
Yeah, yeah yeah
She hits the road
Yeah, yeah yeah
She´s got the guts
