Intro
All my friends are married,
the rest are dead.
Refrain
Hey, I want you to know
that I’m glad I had you by my side
when I needed it the most
Hey you I want you to know
that I’ll be there for you,
just give me a sign and I will come for you
Just give me a sign, just give me a sign
Verse 1
It was a Friday in September around four o’clock
when they finally reached me on my phone
We were looking for him since 8 a.m.
and wondered where he might have gone
Ramona was the first, to get the news
and she texted me:
“Please answer your phone and call me back!
It’s an emergency!”
Verse 2
In moments like this, when all is dark
we can see the light around the corner.
When we find ourselves, in the arms of our friends
and cry on their shoulders.
Through grief we reach acceptance and our hearts will fill with love
and even though we truly miss our friend.
Life goes on and some of us got married and we’re all happy in the end.
Outro
Why, tell me why?
Why didn’t you talk to us?

Verse 1
There were moments in my life, when all fell apart
And I didn’t have no sense of satisfaction in the dark
But in a moment of devotion and reflection it hit me
That there is life and there is love and there is you and there is me
Chorus
When you wake up and you open your eyes
And you feel grateful to be alive
Carry on, the world’s in your hand
Don’t waste no time my friend
Verse 2
I was tired of my self-pitty, that I’ve built over time
I had to take responsibility for this life that I call mine
I remembered this old saying, my dear friend used to sing
How “all we’ve got is time” and how we waste it constantly
Verse 3
That’s exactly the moment when I promised to myself
To focus on the good things and moments in my life
Like you, my love, my friends and family
And all the tiny little things that matters most to me
Chorus
Bridge
There is an infinite number of possibilities
Of “what ifs” and “what whens” and uncertainties
But I don’t let myself go down this road again
I hold the outcome and the future of my life in my own hands
Whatever has happened in the past
Whatever will be will be
The only thing that matters is now
The future is you, the future is me

Why So Serious?

Verse
How are you, how do you do?
(You) put your faith in crossed fingers and horse shoes
Since the day, you were born
Why so serious, why so serious?
Refrain
Never be ashamed of a scar
It (only) means, that you’ve become stronger
We stopped looking for monsters
under our own bed
Because they are inside our head

Verse 1
They called us “Hatemakers” , “the Hardworkers” and many names more
There were times when we didn’t know what we’ve been called before
But time will heal all wounds, as they say and so we take it
We’ve been and will forever be “Hendricks the Hatmaker”
Verse 2
We travelled to the north, played in a smuggler’s forest
We spent nights and nights in smelly pubs and danced with some pirates.
We woke up and went on, as long as one of us could drive
We loved what we did, this band it was our life.
Refrain
So raise your glasses and join us to sing along
Let’s sing for what’s behind and what’s still to come
So raise your glasses, may you be happy or sad.
Here’s to all the living and the dead!
Verse 3
Moments become memories, and memories remain
So I swear from today until I die.
I will always remember you my friend, you’re in my heart
and tears will be washed with a smile
Outro
Here’s to the memories, here’s to all the songs
to the evenings we spent, and to the stories we told
Here’s to all the friends we found on the road
and here’s to you, my friend!

Hendricks the Hatmaker Switzerland
Hendricks the Hatmaker, that’s Nicolas, Stefan and Ramona, combine the three musical genres of “Gin”, “Millinery” and „Butt-
Kicking”.
Guitars, drums, bass, and even from time-to-time an acoustic instrument, complement each other almost as perfectly as cucumber and tonic water.
They now continue with their plan to take over the world as a classic punk-power-trio.
