about

THEODORE SAYS:
The ''hot girl'' in the lyrics here is representing the ''men's trophy'', a ''privilege to die for'' and we watch her growing and changing through the years in a state of ''voluntary absence''.

...But wait a minute, it's more tricky than that!
At the end it is about how foolish we behave infront of her as a society, how wrong we are mirroring our values through her eyes, and how easy we reveal our worst - arrogant sides between us when we want to conquere and take ''The biggest piece of the pie''...
...and that the kind of a result we get in our hands finally it's ...''nothing - it's nonsence''....

...Still a lot to learn in this life!

lyrics

WHO WANTS TO KNOW

( Music & Lyrics : Theodore Panagiotou )

...And if looks could kill
she was the perfect crime
In her little town
too many men have already died
...She could give you the blues
if you look in her eyes
'Cause her beauty it was
a promise of paradise

...Ooh, God gave enough
to sculpture all her body
...Ooh, He spends all his time
torturing people around

In a danger zone
she had to carry on
and handle life alone

REFRAIN

So , who wants to know
how this story ended ?
Everybody wants
to play a part in this

All we used to know
it‘s nothing, it‘s nonsense
On a crucial point
we all want a piece of the pie

There is no peace of mind at all
no cool decisions
The worst of ourselves we hold
by being ambitious

Who wants - who wants to know ?
Oooh, who wants to know ?
* * * *
...When she did her best
to stop this serious game
and she locked herself
into Osho‘s radical sayings
...She started to read
to play the cello and sing
and she was discrete but mean there
to protect her from everything

...Ooh, nothing has changed
Only the way the dice was rolling
...ooh, the news was the same
The people still were talking .

In this awkward zone
She had to carry on
and handle life alone

REFRAIN

Now, all she wants to know
is the gift of silence
To eat , pray and love
it doesn‘t matter how

She doesn‘t want to know
your nonsense , my nonsense
She has mastered Zen
and learnt to be stone cold

Across the Universe she flies
she knows the way now
Staring at images / her eyes
can‘t see us now

No one she really recalls
No one, nothing at all
* * * *
...So, the aftertaste
of this story told
is that we became
too attracted to fool‘s gold

...And we can‘t fulfill
our promises and our goals
'cause our theories
at any moment they could be sold

...Ooh , nothing has changed
We make deliberate mistakes
...'Cause we like to make slaves
the ones that we can charm.

In a danger zone
we have to carry on
and handle life alone

REFRAIN

'Cause all that we want
is fast a slice of heaven
to make our sorrows go
it doesn‘t matter how

Even with success
we‘re nothing , we‘re nonsense
'cause we ignore the code
of mutual respect .

Who really wants to build towards
a better future ?
In perfect arrogance we walk
and brag like roosters

Oooh ...oooh
ooooh ... oooh...
