Wise Boys from Dijana by Deian Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas George Mountbatten (date of birth: 19th November 1965)

Another total work of art by me, in which I mainly take the atmosphere of the first verse of my text for my song Wise Boys and express it visually, whereby I had to draw the skyline with red colored pencil, because otherwise it would have remained practically invisible in the late summer rain and the thick polluted air. I created, handsigned and dated this art drawing on 20th January 1980.
WISE BOYS [3:43 min.], words and music written and composed on 5th January 1980 by myself, Deian Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas George Mountbatten, date of birth 19th November 1965, and I performed on lead vocals and on all music instruments (drum machine and keyboards). Female vocals by Dani.
Recorded live in studio in summer 1983 by myself in my home music recording studio, L-Sound Studio, on the 1st floor at Christian-Herbst-Straße 9, 7830 Emmendingen 15 - Mundingen, Baden-Württemberg, West-Germany.
Addition update on 23rd March 2016: my new address is 27 Dale Street, North Blyth, Cambois, Blyth, Northumberland, NE24 1SB, England, Great Britain, United Kingdom.

Lyrics

Words written and sung by myself, Deian Louis Francis Albert Victor Nicholas George Mountbatten:
[My socially critical text.]
I sit and watch
those lifeless forms
growing up
to the sky.
A warm rain
is falling,
I try to keep
my walkman dry.
[Dani sings the following:] I will never ever open those grey doors, never clearing up the shelf.
In this dreamless
southern town
of coloured grey
I roam the streets
alone
as summer fades away.
[Dani:] Never clearing up the shelf.
White boys, white boys.
white boys.
Today I've lost all my ways
outside on the pavement.
Sitting on a street
with a tramp
and shake his hand.
He says to me
you are a white boy.
White boy.
You're a white boy.
White boy.
White.
I can start my search
but I cannot stop.
I can give in
but I can't give up.
All that rests
hard on my shoulders,
bringing me down.
The place that I love
will never be found.
Call me,
call me a white boy.
White boy. White.
White boy.
White boy. White boy.
White boy. White.
Today I've lost all my ways
outside on the pavement.
Sitting on the streets
with a tramp
and shake his hand.
I can start my search
but I cannot stop.
I can give in
but I can't give up.
All that rests very
hard on my shoulders,
bringing me down.
I sit and watch
these lifeless forms
growing up
to the sky.
A warm rain
is falling,
I try to keep
my walkman dry.
I sit and watch
this lifeless sky.
