Milk & Honey

Milk & Honey was written by Thomas. The lyrics were a collaborative effort between Thomas, Peter and Arnim, whom came up with the majority of the chorus.

It the first single for Boombox; the first new Beatsteaks song in 3 years! Prior to it's release, they put up the song's music sheets on their website for free download. A contest was held of who could play the song before even hearing it. The band's favourite version would end up on the CD single for the song. A lot of people, including bands like Donots, participated. 

It has been played at most concerts since it's release.

Some People may run

While others have fun

Tryin’ to grab what they can

So I lie in the grass

I had too much and too fast

But the best of all times

Waiting out the days to go by

And waters run dry

But I’ve made up my mind


It´s calling me, call me anytime

It´s coming up each and every line

Keep calling me, call me anytime

Who-oh here is the song

For those who never ever

Sit back and recover

Here is the one

For those who never shiver

The cool cats I adore


Some people wear gloves

Carrying their portions of love

Until death comes from above

Now for dreams and for plans

You try as hard as you land

But I’ve made up my mind


It´s calling me, call me anytime

It´s coming up each and every line

Keep calling me, call me anytime


Who-oh here is the song

For those who never ever

Sit back and recover

Here is the one

For those who never shiver

The cool cats I adore

The cool cats I adore

The cool cats I adore
