CLOSEST THING TO HEAVEN

MULAT

(words & music: Japs Sergio)

Haay… Ang buhay sa farm

Tahimik lang

Panay kuliglig sa pandinig

Krook Krook

Ang tunog parang pagkatapos

Ng baduy na joke

Krook Krook

Sayang pero kelangan ng bumalik

Sa mundong puno ng

Pasikatan.

Paastigan.

Palakasan.

Hindi ito labanan

Hindi ako si Paqman

Nakupu!

Nagkabuhol-buhol

Juskup!

And there they go

Naiwan ata’ng utak mo

‘Pag matulog na’ng mundo

‘Pag mamulat na’ng mata mo

Mauunawaan mo ako

MS. ECSTATIC

(words & music: Japs Sergio)

In comes the observer

Taking everything in stride

The world equals four corners of the mind

Keep it on the down low

Keep it hush, hush, honey

Choosing an adventure is such a rush

Ms. Ecstatic that’s how she is tonight

Unabashed

As long as it feels alright

If that’s okay with you I don’t mind

Anytime I don’t mind

In comes reality

It suddenly hit

It was too good to be true

Now you want more than I can give you

Wait a minute!

That’s out of the question

Let’s skip redemption

Ms. Ecstatic that’s how she is tonight

Unabashed

As long as it feels alright

If that’s the way with you

I do mind

ONGANO

(words & music: Japs Sergio)

Ibon lang ba’ng may laying lumipad?

Saang dakong paroon ba ang iyong lakad?

Papunta pa lang ang tanong

Pabalik na’ng sagot

Aanhin pa nga naman ang damo

Kung wala ng chichibog

Walang mahirap na gawa kung alam mo ang iyong ginagawa

Lahat natutunan ko elementary pa lang ako

Ngayon akalain mo hindi pa rin natuto

Nagmamadaling tumanda

Gusting magpa bata

Akala ko ay graduate na malayo pa pala

Oo nga ano

Kung walang mali, lahat may tama

Oo nga ano

Kung panay pagmahal, wala ng magmumura

Anong mas gusto mo?

Wala kang tulog o wala nang gising?

Anong mas gusto mo?

Mabuhay sa hirap o mamatay sa sarap?

Oo nga ano

Kung gusto mo puro luma, walang pagbabago

Oo nga ano

Kung puro tahimik wala ng mag-iingay

Walang mahirap na gawa kung alam mo ang iyong ginagawa

Oo nga ano

Kung walang mali, lahat may tama

Oo nga ano

Kung panay pagmahal, wala ng magmumura

Anong mas gusto mo?

Wala kang tulog o wala nang gising?

Anong mas gusto mo?

Mabuhay sa hirap o mamatay sa sarap?

Oo nga ano

Kung gusto mo puro luma, walang pagbabago

Oo nga ano

Kung wala ang puno, wala ang dulo

REMENIS…

(words & music: Mark Escueta)

Ano ang kulay ng paglimot?

Isasalin ko sana sa bughaw na nadarama

Naghahabi ng paghilom

Buhay natin ang tema

Alaala ang tinta

Simple lang ang buhay noon

Lahat ng bagay abot ng ‘sang kamay

Himbing natin sa gintong nakaraan

Paminsan-minsan lamang balikan

Isipin mo nalang may taong wala ng meron ka

Pero sumasabay sa ikot ng mundo

Sekreto ng buhay ay wala sa mga tala

Muli nating balikan ang simula

Sayang

Hanggang remenis nalang

Sayang

Hanggang remenis ka lang

Tama nang sisihan

Lahat nama’y nagkulang sa

Kanya-kanyang paningin

Kanya-kanyang paningin

Hawak mo na ang mahiwagang alas

Sasama ka ba o kusang aatras?

Simple lang ang buhay ngayon

Manalig ka, Diyos lang ang siyang gabay!

Gintong pangako

Sayang

Hanggang remenis nalang

Sayang

Hanggang remenis ka lang

Isipin mo nalang may taong wala ng meron ka

Pero sumasabay sa ikot ng mundo

Sekreto ng buhay, nasa tibay ng samahang

Sinimulan

Inaalagaan

Pinaninindigan

Muli nating balikan ang simula

LOCOMOCO

(words & music: Mike Elgar)

We will all  be fine

We will just follow the line

Change the train we may go faster

A better life from here on after

Service and hospitality, and always on time

Locomoco

From the slaughter house

To the place of the mouse

Please take us anywhere but

Here where a broken heart’s just

An opened mind filled with juicy lust

And medicated disgust

Locomoco

We will never stop now

We’re just enjoying the ride

You can never stop us now

We don’t care what the neighbors say

We make some noise

It’s just insane

But after all the hate we take a bow

Locomoco

Baby come on

DANGAL

(words & music: Japs Sergio)

Nagbago ang ihip ng hangin

Kumupas na ang ngiti sa paningin

Nag aalarma na ang orasan

Para saan pa? huli na

Lumipas na ang pagkakataon

Hanggang dito nalang

Hanggang dito nalang ba ako sa ‘yo?

Hay, wala naming gusting mangyari ‘to

Sariling dangal kaya bang lumunok

Baling araw malalaman din ng lahat ang lahat

Karanasang palaganapin para sa mata’t tenga

Hanggang dito nalang

Hanggang dito nalang ba ako sa ‘yo?

AMBOTSA

(words & music: Japs Sergio)

Ano ba talaga?

Kanan o biglang kaliwa?

Friends lang nga talaga

Kahit ka-holding hands under the table

Hindi ako nagpa-pa hard to get

Pero kung di mo ma-get

Let’s just forget

Ambot sa imo

Wala akong paki sa ‘yo

Ano kayang ginagawa mo?

Ayaw na nga kitang Makita

Kelan ba tayo magsasama?

‘Wag mo nakong mahalin

Pero wag naman akong limutin

Ok na eh

Ambot sa imo

Eh-yow!

Nag unsaman ka?

Ambot sa imo

Ewan ko ba sa iyo

It’s not you it’s me

I know right?

SAVE YOUR SOUL

(words & music: Mike Elgar)

A pig on the hill watching over you

How can you hide, what can you do

Don’t you know she’s using you now

And she will never stop until you die

But you can have a way out

Do what she does and pretend to cry

Smile and stare at the long lost pain

No one knows what you might gain

You know that it wouldn’t be wise

To listen to her magic lies

Don’t be fooled by her biggest thighs

She’s just an oversized squid in a disguise

Save your soul

HERE WE ARE AGAIN

(words & music: Mike Elgar)

I don’t know what to do

Is that the light, moving away from you

It’s always the same

Nothing ever changes

Am I just too tame

Is it time to grow

Or is it time to wander

How can we be so low

Here we are again

But you’re still by my side

Three sides to every story

But maybe none is right

Here we are again

Three sides to every story

But maybe none

Maybe none

Hide away, your tears

Hold on to your fears

We are stuck here

No fast forwards

One day takes a year

No one can help you

No one can save me

But you…

Here we are again

But you’re still by my side

Three sides to every story

But maybe none is right

Here we are again

Three sides to every story

But maybe none

Maybe none

Say hello to yesterday
Not forever will I stay
In your arms I lay
Blinded by the Darkness

THE SIGHT OF YOU

(words & music: Japs Sergio)

Indecisions are eating me up inside

I need a pill to expectorate my pride

What’s wrong with me?

I’m losing control

I was never good with gravity

It seems so simple yet so strenuous

I can see a thought bubble

And it goes something like

Hi! Can I be your friend just for tonight?

We don’t even need to talk

Just speak with our eyes

Just the sight of you is more than enough

The hand that moves all day

Tick, tock, tick, tock

I think I’m so out of tip-top shape

Huffin’ and puffin’ she blew my heart away

Blew my heart

Please, please, please

Feel free to burst my bubble

Can I ask for a favor?

I hope you don’t mind

Will you let me know, will you let me know?

When your status changes to

Out of a relationship
