13.06.99 Leipzig, Germany, middle of ´Light of Day´
‘‘Leipzig !....(?)...but everywhere I’ve gone, I’ve
seen people downhearted, disspirited, disgusted, confused....lost in the wilderness....lost
in loneliness....lost in bitterness....lost in fatalism....lost in cynicism....they´ve
been analyzed, downsized, stigmatised, fractionalised, retropsychedelicized
but I´m here tonight to let you know that if your soul´s got bad
credit, it´s good here....if your heart´s running on empty, come
on, we´re gonna fill it up....if your spirit´s bankrupt, gonna lift
that debt up off you, lift that debt up off you, lift that debt up off you and
set you free in the morning....how am I gonna do that ?....how am I gonna do
that ?....how am I gonna do that ?....I´m gonna resuscitate you, re-educate
you, regenerate you, reconfiscate you, reindoctrinate you, rededicate you, reliberate
you with the power, the promise, the power, the promise, the power, the promise,
the power, the promise, the majesty, the mystery…with the ministry of
rock and roll !….now, I can´t promise you life everlasting....but
I can promise you life....right now ! …..and all you´ve got to do
is say ‘I’….”
