Golden Earring

Nobody but you
Nobody but you
Nobody but you
You are the one I'm always thinking of
What can I do
You treat me cruel
Why don't you come and try to
When I looked at you
The night we met
I could have known
You were so sad
But now I see
Oh yeah I see
He is the one who keeps my love away
That's all
I'm telling you
Girl if you wait
You'll be as lonely as can be
But if you go
My love is strong
You forget him
And be glad
Nobody but you
Nobody but you
Nobody but you
You are the one I'm always thinking of
Nobody but you
Nobody but you
Nobody but you
Nobody but you

Please Go

Please go, before tears come from my eye
You throw my love away i wonder why
Now i am thinkin' what the reason could be
You said you've got no other love that's a lie to me
You know i really die if i should see
You're making love to men no matter who it will be
Listen baby you can imagine what happens to me now
You said you wanna be free like other people so always told me before
And if you don't wanna hurt me
Don't stay in the place where our love started
I ask you, i ask you now
Please go, before tears come from my eye
You throw my love away i wonder why
Now i am thinkin' what the reason could be
You said you've got no other love that's a lie to me
You know i really die if i should see
You're making love to men no matter who
I said please go home now before tears come from my eye
I just can't standing the lie
I said no, oh no, oh no
Please go, before tears come from my eye
You throw my love away i wonder why

She May Be

She may be
The girl you're holding tight
She's the one
I cried for every night
I warn you friend
It must be soon
And she will say goodbye
Just like mine
Your arms and veins
Will fly in the sky
One thing I know for sure
This happened once before
She'll turn her back on you
And take me in her arms again
She may be
The girl you're holding tight
She's the one
I cried for every night
Now she's the kind of girl
Who always flies around
But someday soon she'll see it
That I'm the only real love
That mine's the only real love
That mine's the only real love

Tears and Lies

Tears and lies
Show me your land
Of hope and dreams
When she cries
I know its not
The way it seems
I can go on
When I came home
Everything looked
The same old way
She was alone
Asked me again to stay
I can go on
People they said things I didnt believe
I love her, I love her so I couldnt leave
From her side
If she could only
Tell me the truth
There will be harm
I have to loose her anyway
Tears and lies
Show me your land of hope and dreams
When she cries
I know its not the way it seems
I can go on

Miracle Mirror

I've Just Lost Somebody

She came down from far away and smiled at me
In one moment I found out how love can be
Then I realized that she had gone again
Ive just lost somebody
A-ha, please let me dream

Though I know that love ever happened this way
Ill be here untill she will return one day
Here low, I am dreaming, she must appear again
Ive just lost somebody
A-ha, please let me dream

She came down from far away and smiled at me
In one moment I found out how love can be
Then I realized that she had gone again
Ive just lost somebody
A-ha, please let me dream

On the Double

Just a Little Bit

The rainbow hides no treasure, oh believe me its not true
and there aint no mixture, that will give you back your youth
No mystic machine that makes the sand turn to gold
Like there aint no magic word, that holds you back from getting old

I catch a branche and I break it in my hands
Like you broke my heart, oh I still cant understand
No mysterious mixture, can heal the wound youve made
Only time will bring peace to me, and now I just hate

Oh Ill break up and give it all up
No nore lies, no more rainbow treasures
No more fairytales, no more games for me
Its my life, my life, a pleasure

Theres just a little bit of peace in my heart
Theres just a little bit of happiness Ill part

I catch a branche.....................................

The time rolls by, the days go by
When will I learn to stop wondering why
despairing Im going down on my knees
Im begging, begging, begging, oh please

Murdock 96182

Do you remember, how she was looking,
The day, she left me on my own.
Oh lord, you know how she can rock me,
And you know she won't be coming home.
Do you remember, how she was looking?
The first time you saw her nude.
Cause nobody ever seen her peach skin,
And I just want you back, I just want you back.
So I hang on, hang on, hang on now.
Call your number any day, any hour.
Mixed up I can't face it and I'm feeling blue.
Well I'm calling Murdock 9-6182
La la, la la la, la la la laaa la la la laaa
Do you remember, I called you Queen Eliza,
and then you smiled and ran out the door.
Came back while I was sitting on the sofa
You gave me the things where I was longing for
Do you remember, how you where looking.
The day I came home and found out the score.
There will no reason that aint no use to imagine.
That I just want you back, I just want you back
So I hang on, hang on, hang on now.
Call your number any day, any hour.
Mixed up I can't face it and I'm feeling blue.
Well I'm calling Murdock 9-6182

Song Of a Devil Servant

Call my name and Ill be there
To serve your majesty everywhere
No instruction is too much for me
Execute his order, like in a bad dream

Ah, ah, ah,.........

No use to run and hide
For his eyes are open wide
and when he finds you
These eyes will burn into your soul

I sold my life, without thinkin twice
But instead of fortune he gave me lies
Im facing hell to eternity
The only way out is suicide for me

Ah, ah, ah,....................

Eight Miles High

Eight miles high
and when you touch down
Youll find that its stranger than known

Signs in the street
That say where youre going
Are somewhere, just being there own

Nowhere is, there warmth to be found
Among those, afraid of losing their ground
Rain, grey town, known for its sound
In places, small faces unbound

Round the squares, huddled in storms
Some laughing, some just shapeless forms
Sidewalks scenes, and black limousines
Some living, some standing alone

Everyday's Torture

Youre my everydays torture
Youre a burnin light
When dark times surround me
Youre my love, youre my fight

Youre my everydays torture
Thats what no one denies
My spirit, my splendour
Did I loose, tell me why

Im a man, know my destiny
but it seems, love is dead for me
Im hung up on a womans resolution
Theres nothing left but a dream, an illusion

Youre my everydays torture
Thats what no one denies
My spirit, my splendour
Did I loose, tell me why
Yeah, yeah, yeah,
free me, free me, free me

I saw you powerful, I saw you happy
But I only lived for myself
God, I need you so badly
But I expect no help

Youre my everydays torture
the gun at my head
Youre my everydays torture
the knife at my chest

Landing

When daylight and nighttime feel the same
Its time for your mind to play the game
Close all your eyes and touch the air
Reach for the hand that must be there

You can hide away from reality
and you cant escape

Yesterday I felt it
and the first thing I thought
Never let go

I held it as close as I could
When it didnt grow like it should
and then, after hours, I opened my head
Found myself back on the floor near my bed
Nothing has changed, it was all the same again

Oh, yeah,........

When daylight and nighttime feel the same
Its time for your mind to play a game
Close all your eyes and touch the air
Reach for the hand that must be there

you can hide away from reality
and you cant escape

One Huge Road

Sunshine, Im late back and happy
I wish I could stay here forever
When the suns gone
I just cant be lazy
Gotta move on, to see my baby
So I pack my things and Im going
to the highway, going on my way
Gotta move on, the road is much too long
Much too long
One huge road for me

Golden Earring

As Long As the Wind Blows

How could I tell you that I loved you
You never gave me a chance
How could I know that you put me down
You had no reason, Im on the ground

How could I know
that you were out of reach
Higher than any star, sparklin in the blue sky
Why did you make me cry
I couldnt touch you

And I dont know why, I dont know why
You hurt my soul and lettin me die
I dont know why, Its just another day to die
I sit down and cry

As long as the wind blows
As long as the wind howls
As long as the sea flows
I cant stop lovin you

Back Home

Going back right through the cities
Through the country, rivers so pretty
People wonder why Im going back home
Just the place where I belong
Back home

Well Im around the world rambler
Just a fortune gambler
Its always good to be back home

Round and round the world goes round
Got my friends in every town
From border to border every place Ive been
But Ive gotta be back if you know what I mean
Back home

Big Tree, Blue Sea

Morning sunshine, praise the earth
Fill your glass with wine and dirt
I don't mind - I'm the big tree
I don't mind - I'm the blue sea
Paper castle filled with words
Limbo policeman leads the hord
I don't mind - I'm the big tree
I don't mind - I'm the blue sea
I'm sun, I'm warm, I'm child of the moon
Ever when it's dark, I'll send the dune
Can't you hear there's fishermen laughing
The whale dips down, I hear him crying for me
I'm shade, I'm good, I'm beams in june
Ever when it's dark, I'll light your room
Don't you know the clown has feelings
He's talking revolution, secret meetings
Who's free?
Morning sunshine, praise the earth
Fill your glass with wine and dirt
I don't mind - I'm the big tree
I don't mind - I'm the blue sea

I am Going to Send My Pigeons To the Sky

Whats going on, what are we livin for
When blood sticks to all peaoples door
Whats going on, what are we livin for
Drop down the curtain, who kills the war

Im gonna send my pigeons to the sky
where they can fly, high he high
Im gonna send my pigeons to the sky
where they can fly as a sigh

Whats going on, what are we livin for
Dream on prophets,
these are dreams you ignore
Whats going on, what are we livin for
Awake from your blindness
See the score

See See

He was the only key
She was the only door
What more could they please

Her eyes are ponds of blue
His wishes all came true
What was there to loose in the midnight

See, see, see, he said
Seagulls screamin down in the morning sky
Gee, gee, gee, he said
Come on girl, lets leave this world behind

But then, after weeks
The weeks they got weak
Little did they speak about the future

Her eyes still were blue
But thoughts soon got black
Time that he went back to where he came from

See, see, see, she said
Broken dreames fill the starless night
Gee, gee, gee, she said
and her tears were sparklin bright in the mornin light

The Loner

They call me the loner cause I'm all alone
I've got nobody I even got no time
I was born in Missouri and it must have been a very bad day
For my mom and my daddy when they carried me away
They call me the loner and I live by the day
I never never think about tomorrow no place I wanna stay
They call me the loner and I went through all 50 states
I've got no friends I even got no faith
Yes I'm sad and I'm lonesome
A paradise I've never seen
To the last stop must heaven
The one place I've never been

The Wall of Dolls

This is the wall of dolls
Secret world of smalls
Look at them all my friend
You'll be on of them in the end

Frozen smiles and frowns
Lives of ups and downs
Aren't you - Aren't we all
Part of the wall of dolls

Listen to thew puppet clown
His tales might bring you down
Hang dwarfs and trolls
Hang on the wall of dolls

This is the wall of dolls
Secret world of smalls
Look at them all my friend
You'll be on of them in the end

This is the Time of the Year

This is the time of the year
that love is coming unexpectedly
Knocking on your door
Begging to come in
Baby wont you spread your wings
Wont you come on down
and follow me

And if you do, youre like an arrow
and Im your only bow
Baby, baby, and I can shoot you higher
Than you would ever go

This is the time of the year

Thinking about you baby, baby baby
I see mountains flying
I hear dark woods sighing
My love is getting higher
Wont you come on down
and follow me

This is the time of the year
and I dance with you on a silver string
and after feeling music
We both fly into the world
and Im the only man
who could ever reach you

This is the time of the year

Yellow and Blue

When I wake up early in the morning
and sometimes I really do
Then you get up and you do some yawning
That's nothing new
But then, you know I wonder
If the morning, couldn't open his eyes
to reflections from the sun in the window
Nothing to blow your mind

Morning light, oh morning sun
'cross my calendar
Morning light, oh morning sun
Was her day I will remember
I'm glad you're still there
Even though many don't care
Colours from you,
make you feel that all is new
Yellow and blue
are reflections of water and dew
and more of it all in the morning
in the morning............

Seven Tears

Don't Worry

Today I stayed home and watched the rain
Drip, drop, on my windowpane
Thought about tears from heaven
They told me when I was seven
Don't worry!
Don't worry!

There'll be sunny days
There'll be rainy days
It's all the same
Don't worry, goodnight it's gonna be alright

I went for a walk in the park
And saw an old man dying
His lunch fell on the grass
And a sparrow came flying
Don't worry!
Don't worry!
Don't worry!

The end lies in the future
I look around and see
It's happening to you
One day it'll happen to me
Don't worry!
Don't worry!

There'll be sunny days
There'll be rainy days
It's all the same
Don't worry, goodnight, sleep tight

Hope

Loosing
Got a feeling we're holding
The wrong end of the line
We're dealing day's but we ain't dealing time
Go on fake it cause you're not gonna make it tonight
Better sit back and kick your boots away
Hope for tomorrow, hope for a new day, yeah

Bleeding
Nothing quite went right after Eden
Your neighbour doesn't know
But he's a Heathen
He broke his mind on what he's been reading
He'd better sit back and kick his head away
Hope for tomorrow, hope for yesterday, yeah

And you're all alone trying to make it better
'Cos you're all alone trying to fit the pieces
And you're all alone killing leaches
And you're all alone trying to make it better
In your heart

Loosing
Feeling we're holding
The wrong end of the line
Dealing day's but we ain't dealing time
Go on fake it cause you're not gonna make it tonight
Better sit back and kick your boots away
Hope for tomorrow, hope for a new day, yeah

She Flies on Strange Wings

Lonely is the night without you
Just as lonely as the shapperd whithout sheep
And where flies the falcon in the high sweet air
Without hunting in the Sprane Valleys deer

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

She takes off when she desires
Silence grows on her lips
She can bring you so much higher
She spreads love on all her trips yeah

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

Woke up this morning
And this feeling came to my head
To fly with her from sky to sky
Cause my mind seemed to be dead

So I floated up towards her on my mutilated wings
But all the blackness sings against me now
It's the lady of the strange wings

She wears softness as a gown
She spreads magic all around
Her feathers still untouched
She takes but nothing and she gives so much

She flies on strange wings
She flies on strange winds
She brings strange things
She flies on strange wings

Silver Ships

Way beyond the horizon of the universe
A silver light shines on me
And way beyond my thoughts
What could there be
The silver light flies faster than at first

And I don't know what it will bring
And I don't know what it may be
And when it falls through the starry sky
I know it falls for me

Silver ships won't you come on down
You can land all is clear
Can't you hear I'm here

Way beyond the horizon of the universe
Space ships are speeding fast
And don't you know they have watched
us for a thousand years
And don't you know we'll die at last

No solution for Mother Earth
Only confusion for the earthly herd
And when it falls through the starry sky
Who knows what life is worth?

Silver ships won't you come on down
You can land all is clear
Can't you hear I'm here

The Road Swallowed Her Name

I'm sitting down here and I'm feeling annoyed
All those months and fun and joy
But all there's left is sorrow and pain
Where have you gone I'm going insane

And the road swallows her name
And the memory still remains
Saying love is a wonderful thing
It can't fly on a broken wing
And the road swallows her name
And the memory still remains
Saying love is a wonderful thing
It can't fly on a broken wing

It's the heartaches baby hitting again
I ain't wearing no mask to prove I'm a man
Blind folded morning day begins
Still thinking about you baby and your brown velvet skin.

And the road swallows her name
And the memory still remains
Saying love is a wonderful thing
It can't fly on a broken wing
And the road swallows her name
And the memory still remains
Saying love is a wonderful thing
It can't fly on a broken wing

I'm sitting down here and I'm feeling annoyed
All those months and fun and joy
But all there's left is sorrow and pain
Where have you gone I'm going insane

And the road swallows her name
And the memory still remains
Saying love is a wonderful thing
It can't fly on a broken wing
And the road swallows her name
And the memory still remains
Saying love is a wonderful thing
It can't fly on a broken wing

This is the Other Side of Life

Don't let your head hang down
Try to raise it up to the sky
This is life my friend
I know it ain't far from dying

Don't hide in mist all day and night
To fade your scars and pain away
The world is glass my friend
Look at the other side of life today

Don't let your head hang down
Try to raise it up to the sky
This is life my friend
I know it ain't far from dying

Don't hide in mist all day and night
To fade your scars and pain away
The world is glass my friend
Look at the other side of life today

You're Better Off Free

Don't ever look behind you when you get on your way
You better keep on rolling, could be your last day

And if you torture your brains
By thinking how far
Then lean on me and I'll pull down that bar

Oh, something gotta hold on me
That's why I'm movin'on so easily, yeah, yeah
Well maybe I'm wearring rags
But I'm on no-ones back
So do give a smile to me
Believe me you're better off free

Don't ever look behind you when you get on your way
You better think about tomorrow
Forget about today

Don't ever look behind you when you get on your way
You better keep on rolling, could be your last day

And if you torture yourself

That's why I'm movin'on so easily
Oh maybe I'm wearring rags
But I'm on no-ones back
So do give a smile to me
Believe me you're better off free

Together

A Thousand Feet Below You

I can't get through to you
Even when I do
You slip away like sand through the fingers of my hand
You've got that something on your face
You smile away the hope I embrace
Imagine you and me
Planted like two seeds
You will grow to sand
I'll eat from your hand
Satisfaction is just another word for pain
Living without it's gonna drive you insane
I kneel my love a thousand feet below you
Perform the things you want me too

All Day Watcher

Well in a few more hours, and millions of people
hate their alarm clock, even more than their wives
The day is beginning, you can tell by the sunrise
People get ready for a day in their lives
Theyre getting together, in the streets of the cities
Like lost computers of a shattered tribe
Theyre all in a hurry, to be in time
some for promotion, some to stay alive
Yeah, yeah

Im the all day watcher, thats all I do
Im the all day watcher, Im watching you

Well I shake my head and I shake my brain
And I dont understand why theyre all the same
I weigh pros and cons, against their lives and mine
But I dont know, its beyond my frame of mind
Beyond my frame of mind, yeah

Oeh, in a few more minutes, and millions of people
hear the whistle of freedom, blowing through their head
They push and they hurry and the herd starts moving
they follow the trail back home again
Where theyre taking it easy, with a box of beer
Watching the late late show on color TV
and life aint easy, when youre livin that way
But sometimes I wonder, maybe its fun everyday
Yeah, yeah

Avalanche of Love

Woman you're avalanche of love
Falling over me means I can't get you off
Woman you're avalanche of love
Loving the way you do means I'm under you're
We're getting loose tonight (we're gonna have a ball)
It's gonna be alright (we dance and rock and roll)
We'll paint the town red (we shake all night long)
Untill the night is dead (untill we can't go on
But you're making love while I'm
Somewhere waisted on the floor (with me)
Woman you're an avalanche of soul
Rolling over me you shine out heat instead of cold
Woman you're an avalanche of soul
Lovin' you the way I do is lovin' hot coal

Brother Wind

Brother what kind of wind your are
You blow all over earth
We hunger for love were tired of pain
All you bring is dirt
Brother wind bring some fresh air
For the sake of human being
People are ready for all thats good
Open those eyes
Which havent yet seen
Brother wind what kind of wind you are
You blow all through these lands
We murder for some high reason
All at your command
Brother wind it maybe right
You have us on a string
But all I know it might take a while
Its not your song were gonna sing

Buddy Joe

Let me tell you about Buddy Joe
When he came down from Mexico
With his pockets full of gold

Have you something to declare
Are you sure there is nothing there
Cuz if there is dont say
Youve not been told

Oh Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I dont really know

Well Buddy Joe searched all his life
Through Mexico all the riversides
Not for the money but for the gold
He needs to hold

Well Buddy Joe proud as he was
Could not stand all the fuss
When they got to all is gold
He was ready to go

Oh Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I dont really know

Well youll understand he did not stand a chance
Everybody was shouting commands
When Buddy Joe split in a hurry
Soon he was ready to be buried

Oh Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I dont really know

Cruisin Southern Germany

Pick pocket with a red coat on
Dishy dashing through a squirrel-farm
Police cat high heeled hat
Pointing out just where it's at
And I close my eyes to see reality
Mickey Mouse on the hillside flees
When I brush his garden with my knees
It's an oxtails symfony
Topped off with greasy macaroni
And it all seems so familiar to me
Cruisin' Southern Germany
When you get a little homesick
Miss you girl and your tv
Pump down some of that old gold comfort
Cruisin' real nice and easy
Cruisin' real nice and easy
Souther Germany
Jesus Christ looking down on the valley
Wondering why they left him lonely
Das Gasthaus and the one Mark free
Goulash in high degree
It all seems so familiar to me
Cruisin' Southern Germany

From Heaven From Hell

If theres a reason why you leave me
Then I like to hear it now
Ill simply bend my head
I wont cry out loud
I know all this time we spent together
Was not so important to you
You always knew
There would come a time
That I would sing my blues
And now youre playing with me
Like youre playing card
Im losing before you start
You know every trick
Of every game
You look right through my heart
Youre from heaven from hell from heaven
Youre from heaven from hell from heaven
Youre from heaven from hell from heaven
Youre from heaven from hell from heaven
For ever Im lost in your spell
Ooh and I would be a liar
If Im telling you
That I dont give a damn
That you dont love me like I do
Oh babe
Babe Im begging you
Im begging you down on my knees
Oh please stay some more time
Id rather be dead than free
Alright you leave me all alone
I see the curtain fall
And while you softly close the door
Its your name I call
Oh youre from heaven from hell from heaven
Youre from heaven from hell from heaven
Youre from heaven from hell from heaven
Youre from heaven from hell from heaven
For ever Im lost in your spell

Jangalene

Jangalene, youre my queen
I cant get next to your love machine
Jangalene, youre my queen
My soul cant feel, what my eyes can see

Oooooooooo, Jangalene
Oh, Oooo, Jangalene

Drivin all night in your Cadillac
Showing your beauty, youre drivin me mad
From the Sunset Strip to a Sosselito Bar
I follow you down in my second hand car
Maybe youre a dream, flashin by
But I trust my eyes, they are tellin no lies

Ooooooooooo, Jangalene
Oh, oh, oh, oh, Jangalene

Moontan

Are You Receiving Me

If your circles could be spirals
And your idolls weren't machines
If you could pick up all the signals
And flash on where you've been

Maybe you don't feel it at all
It's your own fault crawl boy, crawl!
If you could quit the miming
And try some different timing
You could get a chance to be free

Are you receiving me
It's the pilot's plea
Are you receiving me
Close to insanity
Are you receiving me
Recharge your battery
Are you receiving me
(or are you out to lunch)

If your prayers could all be answered
And you were given time to pay
The chances would be so heavy
But you'd find a better way

Candy's Going Bad

Candy took the pearls
Got ahead of the girls
Got on top and found the secret entrance
Are you satisfied?

Through neon doors
Cross killing floors
She got sucked into a champagne desert
Are you satisfied?

Daddy said: I'll break your bones
If you come home dressed in Peacock clothes
Mother said: quit the show
She didn't want the neighbours to know
Candy had to quit the show

Well, Candy didn't care
When she started her affair
With the studs and the mares of the night
Are you satisfied?

Teddy knows the rule
Of the underground school
He's got Candy wrapped round his finger
Are you satisfied?

Candy is going bad - she's got a room to let
Candy is going bad - got a pimp, named Ted
Candy is going bad - long greens where it's at
Candy's going bad - she's got stars in her head

Daddy said: I'll break your bones
If you don't get your tricks of the phone
Mother said: quit the show
I don't want the neighbours to know

Just Like Vince Taylor

She had the whole world in her dress
She put my fingers to the test
She made me grease my hair
She got me wearing leather
We danced till the music faded
We loved and the taxi waited

You turn me round and round and round
Got me doing like I never did before
You take me upside down
Bring me outside in
Got me going like I never came before
Just like Vince Taylor

You said I was your private monkey
And you smiled when I tried to be funky
And I never knew the score
Just like Vince Taylor
Still got the chains hung down my vest
Since you said I could have been the best

Radar Love

I've been driving all night, my hand's wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head, that drives me heel
It's my baby callin', says I need you here
And it's half past four and I'm shifting gear

When she's lonely and the longing gets too much
She sends a cable coming in from above
Don't need no phone at all
We've got a thing that's called: Radar love
We've got a wave in the air
Radar love

The radio's playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's: "Coming on strong"
The road's got me hypnotised
And I'm speeding into a new sunrise

When I get lonely, and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort coming in from above
Don't need no letters at all
We've got a thing that's called: Radar love
We've got a line in the sky

No more speed I'm almost there
Gotta keep cool, now gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go!
And the line of cars drove down real slow
And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee's Coming on strong
And the newsman sang his same old song
One more Radar love has gone

Suzy Lunacy

I won't forget you Suzy Lunacy
You finally got me where you wanted me
Another case for psychiatry
Signed Suzy Lunacy

I can't forget you Suzy Lunacy
For all the things you took away from me
(you're always fighting with reality)
For undermining my security
Love, Suzy Lunacy

I was looking for love
And look what I got
Plenty of aggro
And emotional shock
My knickers in a twist
And my head's on the block
That's what you give me with your mental rock

Now I'm wondering
How our thing will end
If you're so stubborn
And refused the bend
People around us just stand and mock
Trying to do the mental rock

Well, I ain't as sweet as mother says
I've played these games you lay on heads
Suzy loony you're the cream of the crop
The expert on mental rock

The Vanilla Queen

Fascinating lady
Snowflake in the sun
You made me feel so bourgeois
Oh you've captured everyone

I hear you've been a dancer
At some famous Paris show
And million dollar lovers
Neatly saw you to your door

Nineteen-fifty-seven, sweetheart of the year
Secret of your beaty
Was your moontan and your fear

And now you run this city
You're still honey to the flies
Attract the incrowd dandies
Faraway look in their eyes

You're the bright nocturnal vanilla queen
Your mask is sterile dignity
Tell my why nocturnal vanilla queen
You haunt me even in my dream

It couldn't be avoided
We were bound to meet
I knew you would drag me down
And toss me off my feet

Sweet moments of desire
Sweet moments of relief
You blew down my fences
You're nocturnal make-believe

Switch

Daddy's Gonna Save My SOul

I was born the son of a tycoon
Successor to a vast fortune
Being spoilt without concern
For the future tricks I'd turn
I found the wrong direction
Due to daddies overprotection

With people in a state of trance
There's no use for common sense
What you do is use the coin
Justify what you're destroyin'
Following the family code...
I misbehave - lose control
Cause daddies gonna save my soul

What to think of a man of means
That wheels and deals behind the scenes
I radiate potential danger
Accepted as a well known stranger
At all the jet-set parties
I'm tampering with the ladies!

With people in a state of trance
There's no use for common sense
What you do is use the coin
Justify what you're destroyin'
Following the family code...
I misbehave - lose control
Cause daddies gonna save my soul

Intro Plus Minus Absurdio

Intro/plus minus absurdio...

Kill Me Ce Soir

Remember that song called Kill me -
From Vick Timm's last elpee
Too much of a risc for a golden disc
The price he paid for money
Ce soir - ce soir assassination d'un Rock & Roll star
Ce soir - ce soir assassination d'un Rock & Roll star

Sing your song you can't go wrong
Tempted his business adviser
No need for alarm - you'll come to no harm...
He didn't mention the sniper
Ce soir - ce soir assassination d'un Rock & Roll star
Ce soir - ce soir assassination d'un Rock & Roll star

The news is read - the need is fed
One yawn ah - two yawn ah -
And back to bed
Turn off the light - and hold me tight -
C'mon - maman - bend down your head
And just sing on - immortal song
Fini - belle vie - bonne nuit!

Remember that song called Kill me
A lecture on political chicanary
Of peoples rape - recorded on tape
Brought shame to the presidency
Tonight - tonight one more point for human rights
Tonight - tonight one more point for human rights

Remember that song Kill me
Once used by a man from Gallilea
He had nothing to lose - he was King of the Jews
Secured his place in history
Ce soir ce soir assassination d'un provocateur

The news is read - the poisons' spread
One yawn ah - two yawn ah -
And back to bed
Turn off the light - and hold me tight -
C'mon - maman - bend down your head
And just sing on - immortal song
Fini - belle vie

Vick played his part - with all his heart
He wasn't prepared for the shock
When howling lead bit into hes head
A new martyr for the book of rock

Love is a Rodeo

There's no doubt you're beautiful
You're so full, you gotta be wonderful
So elastic - it's fantastic
Pure lovely - not at all like me
You roped me right into your ring
With your lassoo - with your string

Rodeo - once you think you're riding high, off you go
Idol, ideal partner in dreams
Much too perfect to be true -
Here's another one for you

You say climbing in love is better than falling
Going ahead, is better than stalling -
Amplify me - satisfy me -
You unfold me - but you never told me
How far you've gone to strike upon such technique
You're bit of a rat, but you're still unique

Romeo - once you think you're riding high - of you go
Idol - ideal partner in dreams
Much too perfect to be true
Here's another one for you

Rodeo - love is a rodeo!

The Lonesome

Here's a sad - real sad record I've gotta dedicate
To a friend out there, somewhere on a big highway
That's quite a note you wrote
Before you sneaked out with that - what's his name...?
Here's our song - yes the one
I used to play for you all day

You've gotta call and explain
Before you leave the station's range
I don't care who's listenin' in
Honey I'm against the wall
I'll adjust my programme
To the kind of fool I am
I can only hope that you're tuned in

I have no choise, baby
I sell my voice, maybe
I'm just another lonesome D.J.

Alone, with a phone and a stack of black vinyl
And I know, that home could be just as futile
Without your prescence
It wouldn't make any sense
So I beg - I never did
never realized my love for you was that immense

Let me tell you she didn't call
A FINGER to you all
I might as well have a ball - and play some ROCK & ROLL!

The Switch

So when all things come to an end
Deadly switches all close at hand
Make your dreams and duties mingle -
Laws and morals finally bend -
Holy switch will you defend?

I'm switching all the time
Switching ain't no crime
Gotta change the climate
Gotta raise my rate -
You see a boy in motion
Is never much too late

Switching's easy - oh, it's essential
And you know when you flick it
You can start a new episode -

Warm love - can costume hatred
And the truth could be a lie
Yes a man can - switch to lady
Of indiscrete last goodbyes
And a blade can switch behind you
When you expect shells from the sky -
Oh you go when it's your time

Switching down the line
Switching ain't no crime
Gotta change the climate
Gotta raise my rate -
You see a boy in motion
Is never much too late

Switching's easy - oh, it's essential
And you know when you flick it
You can start a new episode -

Switching's easy - oh, it's essential
And you know when you flick it
You can start a new episode -
Switching's easy - oh, it's essential
And you know when you flick it
You can start a new episode -

Tons of Time

There's no lock on my door
Dunno what bolts are for
Never pay no rent
All I got was heaven sent

Don't need no clocks (tick tock)
To get off my rocks
O, I've got tons of time
Living on coca and lime

You want me to be like you
The truth is, you have no clue
That this lifes' master plan
Should be enjoyed by man

When I'm on T.V.
You all think I'm a bit funny
Basical and out of time

But it's luxury
Protected from humanity
Don't cost a dime - precious time
There's no jungle blues
Once you kick off them tennis-shoes
Making up your mind in time

One day I will revive; so we can all survive
It's just a matter of time
Oh it's luxury - protected from humanity
Don't cost a dime - precious time
There's no jungle blues
Once you kick off them tennis-shoes
Making up your mind in time

The priest says I'm out of line
I'm wasting my tons of time
He say I should pray some more
But I don't know what the hell for

Trouble and Hassles

Troubles - hassles - I know you too well
Always in trouble
I smell problems - crucial - my cross gets another nail
Baby it's ordeals - between meals
Shackles - unseen - torture in 3d detail
I'm dead alive!

You're in for troubles & hassles
Once you're playing the marbles
You're in foor paying dues now - anyhow -

Im sorry - worried
Growing up and breaking down; just ain't no fun
Here come...bad reviews - that's my news
How come it's not a happy song?
When all the guys sing along
In frustration - wondring
Where on earth can you run
Once you're being fried well done

Owned by troubles & hassles
Once you're playing the marbles
In for being accused - refused

What's that troubles?
You just complain - complain
Maybe you've forgotten - before sun there's always rain
What's that hassles
It sounds so mondaine - let's raise glasses
And toast to luck once again
For all your moods in minor are an everybodies thing
Beautiful begins with be - and it's inside every being

Owned by troubles & hassles
Once you're playing the marbles
In for being abused - refused

To the Hilt

Facedancer

Not too serious
Take that frown off your face
Ill get furious
Baby Id like to see a change of looks
Gimme pleasure
You look good when you smile
(thats better)
Say actress
Dont you wanna do
The things I like best
Facedancer magic eyes
That burn with passion and fake surprise
Every time you call the tune
You get your way just a little too soon
Aggressive mask on request.
Sure to start another bad fight
On the surface tigress
But on the inside baby, youre a lullaby.
Im gonna lose you
To some photographer
Youll be abused
You know hes bound to get your act uncovered
The games brutal
Theyre low on scruples.
But Ill be waitin
Ill be here when your features are failin

Latin Lightning

Latin lightning strikes again
Wilder than a hurricane
Hes counting on the dollars of you wealthy mothers
Look at that gigolo go
Hes a devil no pity no shame
Im gonna get his picture framed

When he takes the stage its frightning
Latin lightnin
Spinnin a cyclone man alive and a kicking
High heel machine gun rap arriba!
Faster, faster
Youll be in a daze all night just watchin
(Watch out for) Latin lightnin

When Latin lightnin falls in love
Everybody knows what hes dreamin of
Casinos chateaus Havana cigars
Private jets and flashy cars
Hes ruthless the ladies claim
Im a gonna get his picture framed

Nomad

Gone - With the northern sun
Cross that far horizon
World of a thousand faces
I cant find my oases
Theres a black ice in the sky
And wells are runnin dry

Doomed to voyage till lifes end
Load up strike camp again

Gone -Along the highway ribbens
Past city dwellings
I can see how far they are
From the stickers on their cars
But Im a nomad
Cant look far ahead

Doomed to travel to lifes end
Load up strike camp again

Yeah Ive seen you down below
From my hotel window
On the run Star treks on
Weve got a dream in common
Weve got a dream!

Sleepwalkin

Last night's blind date
Hit me like a handgranate

Blew holes in my soul
I'm on a love crusade
Wore my loves like a pair of gloves
But this time I'm going straight

'Cause I never felt this strange
I'm supposed to be skilled at the game
So once again it goes to show
You'll fall into the trap of love
Before you know

Sleepwalkin',
Don't panic, We are on the Titanic
Don't you try to call my bluff
Both eyes shut travels hard enough

Sleepwalkin', don't panic
We are on the Titanic
Across the brides, 'round the poop
A fire escape, won't hesitate

She's floating there
A living jewel
A gern that makes me lose my cool
It's no surpise, I'm paralyzed
This vision got me hypnotized
Remember your princely duty
Rescue that sleeply beauty

To the Hilt

You wann try wanna fly
Right through the needles eye
Wanna be chilled wanna be thrilled
Press your luck right to the hilt
Hey boy quit that stare
Get out a grandpas rockin chair
How about raisin hell lets see if we
Outdo ourselves.
One day youll be tied and gagged
Your head upon the railroad track
The rails hummin theres a train-a-comin
Im sure your last thoughts full of regret
Before the wheels roll across your neck
Why didnt I do this?
How come I didnt do that?
I could be out there paintin towns red
Sweat
Maybe Ill wake up in bed
No boy! This is it You shouldve used
A bit more wit.
Get out there n dig in deep
Stay wide awake when youre asleep
Who wants to compromise when every
Second hour flies
Set the time on half past tilt
For making love right to the hilt
One day youll be buried
Up to your elbows in the sand.
And theres honey glowin
Down your cheeks its flowing
Youll find some time to reflect
Before the ants are crawling over your head
Why didnt I do this?!
How come I didnt do that
Is this a dream thats gone bad?
Maybe Ill just wake up in bed
To the hilt is that what you said????

Violins

And the classic ways still on play
Violins bitter sweet
String quartet pass around the hat
You broke my heart dont you hurt my head

After Violet and me saw the Paganini movie
We took a walk around the block to digest
The grand finale
A street-music man with shades and cane
Played the fiddler insane for a case load of
Spare change and the smiles of people passing
Between morning paper sins and waves of violins
It said they found him dead his bow had
Made him bad friends

Cold blooded, warm hearted violin
Hooked on high speed energy
Cold blooded, warm hearted violin
Cats gut pumpin adrenalin
Warm blooded cold hearted violins
See em live tonight in the city

And the classic way still on play
Violins better sweet
String quartet pass around the hat
You broke my heart dont you hurt my head
Ive gotta find a little peace of mind
Cause the real thing is a mean thing

I guess nobody knew the Barcelona Zoo
Has an albino monkey that can trigger the mood
And provoke monkey motions
So when the shit flies high
Through the Barcelona sky the crowd stands by
A cheering!

I can hear em playin
Kinda light n neat
All the gals re swayin
The guys are in for meat
Its all cute n rosy
Till the needle hits a crack
Listen to that screech repeatin
Watch the flags go slack
Forever

Why Me

Im standin on the clifftop watchin stormclouds grow
Its disappointment time again Ive been up here before
The wind balloons my jacket seabirds collide below
A pier stands on a hundred stilts some stranded U.F.O.

Ive stopped the car in a dead-end street
Rear view mirror nothin but empty seats.
I could brace myself smash through the concrete
Find whats behind that wall of insecurity.

From gin and jags to squalor and skag.
Selena what a drag
Once we were back to back
Almost there but white was black.

Why me? Designed to compete
Always flirtin with defeat
Why me? I knew it when we met
Hell what else could U expect
Why me? Hungry for affection
It ends with chaos and rejection.

Through the wall and over the cliff
I made the decision you took quite a risk
Selena says as she strokes my head
With luck like yours you should be dead.

Forget the past melt down my silver spoon
Selena not a minute too soon
Broke the chains of negitivity
At last I score a victory

Why me? No need to compete
Nowadays I wink at defeat
Shes me I felt it when we met
That feel cancels all regret
Still me the center of attraction
The end adds to your confusion
Im standin on the clifftop
Waving waving
(Waitin for the cops.)

Contraband

Bombay

1 - 2 - 3 - 4
Bombay seems lost in dreams
When the pipes let off steam
In a backroom - somewhere, anywhere in L.A.

Next payday comes - I'll be gone
By boats & planes - it's pre-arranged
You can't catch me - I'm on my way
Back to Bombay

Bombay - Ain't gonna leave no trace
Bombay - Gonna wash away my face
Bombay - In the Bombay river
I'm gonna settle
I'm gonna stay in Bombay!

I'm gonna trade my past for a new life at last
Sit back & have another blast - if I die
Kamasutra's the reason why
Kama Sutra I surrender

Bombay - Ain't gonna leave no trace
Bombay - Gonna wash away my face
Bombay - In the Bombay river
Bombay
I'm gonna settle
I'm gonna stay in Bombay!
Bombay

Con Man

He split the racket, to operate on his own
He set them up, stripped them & then he was gone
He's a Robin Hood of a new century
If you're rich & dumb, you bleed, boy

Con man's got a bloodhound nose for flaws
Profits from both sides of the law
I feel sympathy for his philosophy
If you're clever you can beat them all

Sister, tell your mister - to hold on to his change
Hustler, call him hustler - Con man rides again
Bandits, he's the bandits - settin' up a frame
Sister, tell your mister - to hold onto his brains!

Con man's mastermindin' on a brand new heist
Blueprintin' through the secret files
Your tune ain't gonna be so nice
When he gets through with you
There's just one thing left to do...

Cause he'll take it away
One money hungry night
Your longs 're gonna be his guidin' lights
He'll be foolin' us all if we don't watch out
Leavin' his lies - spreadin' doubts all about!

Con man's got a bloodhound nose for flaws
Profits from both sides of the law
I feel sympathy for his philosophy
If you're clever you can beat them all

Sister, tell your mister - to hold on to his change
Hustler, call him hustler - Con man rides again
Bandits, he's the bandits - settin' up a frame
Sister, tell your mister - to hold onto his brains!

Con man's mastermindin' on a brand new heist
Somebody's in for a big surprise
Your wrongs're gonna be his rights
When a pro's at a con - he's the devil's son

Cause he'll take it away, etc.
He's the devil son

Sometimes I think I'm gonna study that game
Be a Con man myself some day
Just one thing botherin' me
I might be conning myself - by the way...
It's a quarter past five, and that's no lie
I'm glad we're all still alive, goodbye now
Look out, he's spreadin' those doubts all about
He's the devil son

Faded Jeans

Eatin' t.v.dinner, with the radio on
Made me cough up this kinda song
There's a guy singin' I'd die for you...
And it sounds like he means business too
Here's me thinkin' all through the meal
Thank you for bein' so real & givin' me chills

You're the prettiest girl in the world
It's the best joke I ever heard
Young forever - never never grow old together

Gotta put on your blinkers - for a cakewalk in the sun
Like a mission impossible - like Atilla the hun
Tomorrow's got me hidin' away
Yesterday's got me on the run
& my jeans keep fadin', fadin'
& my jeans keep fadin'

Dunno where these guys do come from
That say they'll kill & die for someone
It's a fluke people, that makes me puke, yeah, yeah
& I can't believe this is the truth
Here's me tryin' to make up my mind
One says love is hard to find
Two says that it's blind

You're the prettiest girl in the world
It's the best joke I ever heard
Young forever - never never grow old together

Gotta put on your blinkers - for a cakewalk in the sun
Like a mission impossible - like Atilla the hun
Tomorrow's got me hidin' away
Yesterday's got me on the run
& my jeans keep fadin', fadin'
& my jeans keep fadin'

We're go out to yourself past, get yourself a pair of new blue jeans
Into the washin' machine, six times bleech, bleech, bleech
Mama's gonna grazy, see what you do
These pairs are brandnew
I'll say, send it with
That's my jeans keep fadin', fadin'
& my jeans keep fadin'

Fighting Windmills

I can't blame you for givin' up
Don Coyote there's no reward in
Fightin' windmills. Fightin' windmills

It's the country that I'm livin' in
You can't stop once you begin
'Cause the braves are spread real thin
Fightin' windmills. Fightin' windmills

For a change would you be so kind
To blow another narrow mind
Instead of chasin' your tails in one direction

Don Coyote here's your epitaph
Guarranteed to raise another laugh
Anything, but giving in...
Fightin' windmills, in the end...
You win, you win

I can't stop - Fightin' windmills

Mad Love's Comin

You want different positions
To keep your love-life succesful
& you want a happy ending
With lots of stud potential - reliable & perpetual
Without bein' distasteful - oh wee

My pappa says it's not the size
Nor the way it's lookin' - it's the way it moves
On stiletto shoes - papa sure improves
But I bet he's just tryin' to be commercial

So let me say somethin' simple to you
Before we get too do the do: baby I love you
That takes care of that - you can take off your hat
You & me gotta be the lucky few

There's a tourist in the city
That went and lost his lady
On purpose if you ask me...
He'll have to find a reason
To cover-up the treason
Meanwhile let's hope the night never ends
Cause mad love's comin'
I know mad love's comin'
mad love's comin'
I know mad love's comin'
mad love's comin'
I know mad love's comin'

Out on the corner - city-boy routine
Right on the border of enemy territory
This is how far you've come
This is how far you're gone
There's a fool's moon out
Siren's too loud
And it's cruel cruel - street's a mean school
Too many blows, below the belt you know...

This is how far you've come
This is how far you're gone
There's a fool's moon out - makin' me shout:

Mad love is comin' not too soon
On beds that sail outta the blue
Mad love's comin' all day through
Who's affraid that romance is doomed

Mad love's comin' - all over your walls
Into your life it creepy crawls
This is how far you've come
This is how far you're gone
There's a fool's moon out - makin' me shout

Mad love is comin' not too soon
On beds that sail outta the blue
Mad love's comin' all day through
Who's affraid that romance is doomed

Sueleen

Sueleen, tell me a secret Sueleen
You shouldn't be hidin' things away from me
Don't you know I'm king jealousy
& I can't forget the snapshots I've seen

Well the next time 'round, I'm gonna chain you down
I've had enough weekends of vacant double-beds
You better tell that mother, don't push the kid no further

One day, when you're swimmin' in the moonlight
With your beau in the Gulf of Mexico
I'll come ridin' in on the surf
& I think I'm gonna teach that pervert...

Sue me, sue me, Sueleen on me...
Baby I love you like no other
Sue me, sue me, Sueleen on me...
You always did it better
Sue me, sue me, Sueleen on me...
Don't wanna talk to no lawyer
Sue me, sue me, Sueleen on me...
Whatever they say, please don't bother

Don't scream d.i.v.o.r.c.e. Sueleen
I must have been momentarily insane
The night I raised my cane Sueleen
Little darlin' born to be driftin'

You're my livin' proof; but you're on the move
Don't you understand - that I had my revenge
The night I got that rocker
I knew I'd risk the locker & pay

For your swimmin' in the moonlight
With a beau in the Gulf of Mexico
I'm here on the floor; wondrin' who the hell
I did it for!

Sue me, sue me, Sueleen on me...
Baby I love you like no other
Sue me, sue me, Sueleen on me...
You always did it better
Sue me, sue me, Sueleen on me...
Don't wanna talk to no doctor
Sue me, sue me, Sueleen on me...
How about glueing it back together?
How about glueing it back together Sueleen?

Time's Up

We'(ve) been friends for a long term run
Shared the goods & we shared the fun
But it's true that nobody knows
& no one can tell
Why in heaven do these moments come
Yeah, who in heaven lets these moments come
When the truth gets twisted
& somebody's ringin' hell's bell

Yeah we seen some high times
And it's too bad 1's always sad
You got 10 seconds baby & then I'm gone
Gimme one reason for stayin' home

Time's up, I hope you make a million
And have a lot of pretty children
But this is my song gotta say solong

I'm always hopin' for the best in life
I try to put it right between my lines
But somehow you been missin' the clues
& you got me feelin' used

Yeah, we seen some high times
There's more to come, where they come from
You got 10 seconds baby & then I'm gone
Gimme one reason for hangin' on

Time's up, I hope you make a million
And have a lot of pretty children
And this is my song gotta say solong
Time's up, I hope you get the picture
For your case, there ain't no cure
I'll be free and you'll be fine
Time's up, I hope you make a million
And have a lot of pretty children
But this is my song gotta say solong
Time's up
So long, bye, bye
Time's up

Grab it for a Second

Against the Grain

Once I dreamed I was falling
Like a feather from a tree
The welcoming committee cheered
Must have been a sight to see
Right there in the middle
Of a sweaty night in Rome
Someone showed a million feathers
How to be a bird on their own
Though we never got to flyin'
I was woken by the phone

I can hear it calling
Get aboard the last train
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain

Once I thought I was flyin'
Had a taste of the witches seed
Got me so excited
Couldn't get back on my feet
Then without a warning
Soft whisper in my ear
If you feel like playin' honey
Let's go get out of here
But we never got to playin'
'Cause I passed out
Out of of fear

I can hear it calling
Get aboard the last train
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain
It's a one way goin' against the grain

Cell 29

He's planning a robbery
Like the common scent
5000 stories
That stand for
Yeah now he's gonna get lucky
This time he'll play it smart
By the time lucky gets lucky
This time he'll play it smart
By the time lucky gets lucky
When he steps out of the getaway car

Feeling fine rounds on cell 29
Feeling lonely in cell 29
I can't remember your face
And I face
And I face it C29
Callin' further needs
On max security
Feeling fine rounds on cell 29
I can't remember your face
And I face
And I face it C29

While I eat that food
Sleep that sleep
Miss that kiss
Feel real cheap
Swallow the pills
Forget all the thrills
No more bills
It's a crime
Cell 29

Feeling fine rounds on cell 29
Can't wait to fly out of cell 29
Miss the space and I trace Cell 29
Callin' further needs
On max security
Feeling fine around on cell 29
Feeling fine around on cell 29 cell 29

Grab it for a Second

We were rolling through the room
After feeling heartboom
Feeling next to mine
We were just eighteen
I was real and mean
But I had a soft spot for her eyes
Another memory
That's all you get to key
Another memory
That's all you get to key

I wanna grab it for a second
Wanna hold it tight
Remember what it feels like
Grab it for a second
I could have it all day and night

Yeah now were rollin' through the times
The times
Takin' and blow a bad blow
By the time we're ready
Not to be
To the end of a show
Memories, that's all you get to key
A lot of memories
That's all you get to key

I wanna grab it for a second
Wanna hold it tight
Remember what it feels like
Grab it for a second
And hold it tight
Remember what it feels like
Grab it for a second remember what I feel
I could have it all day and night

Oehoe
Oehoe
Oehoe
Oehoe

I wanna grab it for a second
Wanna hold it tight
Remember what it feels like
Grab it for a second
And hold it tight
Remember what it feels like
Grab it for a second remember what I feel
I could have it all day and night

Leather

Love at first sight
Last all night
Maybe from the moment
She'll open my thighs
It's been allright
For my gesundheit
Maybe from the moment
She'll cross my eyes
Here it comes
Here it comes
I don't know where to go
It's a sadomasochism

She hurts me with a leather
She do me no favour in between
She stole, she stole my heart and money
I got the straps on
You're having your fun
Baby from the moment you beat
my dmm
It's been allright
For my gesundheit
Baby from the moment
You'll open my eyes
Here it comes
Here it comes
I don't know where to go
It's a sadomasochism

Leather she curse with a leather
Didn't even she do me no favour
in between
She stole, she stole my dignity
Burnin' leather

Keep searchin' leather
Burnin' leather
Keep searchin' leather
Burnin' leather
Keep searchin' leather
Burnin' leather

Movin down Life

Fast flo .. paints her nails
And she looks bored
Sofar nothing scored
When she comes from people
Take it nice and slow
That's all it takes
You know

Movin' down life
Movin' with each other
Movin' down life
Movin' in another life
Movin' movin' down life

Truck stops then
Thinks everybody is a fool
That's why he dropped out of school
He drops them bennies
And he sticks to the white line
I say he's doing fine
Movin' down life
One way or another
Movin' down life
Movin' with each other
Movin' down life
Movin' in another life
Movin' movin' down life

No one knows where the river start
Or where it goes
I'm jupming in leaving my clothes
Movin' down life
One way or another
Movin' down life
Movin' on with eachother
Movin' down life
One way or another
Movin' down life
Movin' on with eachotber
Movin' down life
One way or another
Movin' down life
Movin' on with eachother

Roxanne

Lolita Roxanne, needs a man
Lolita Roxanne, needs a man
She's comin' home
Abadoned by all her friends
Critisizin, analyzin
Her frontdoor
She don't get the way
She used to get before
She can't understand it
She's always been so candy

And save that sound
From her radio in stereo
Anything that gets teared of the ground
By her frontdoor
She don't get the way
She used to get before
She can't understand it
She's always been so candy,
Roxanne
By her frontdoor

Temptin

I really like to go ahead and inviting you
Spill us some booze like a nowhere saloon
You know I like you let's drown our regrets
Pass me another of our full packet
Filled with cigarettes
Later on when the shades are gone
Ask you a question
Do I wanna stay psycho no matter
If I live or die. It sure is temptin'

I really like to schedule
Ask you to join me on a midnight cruise
Then I would like you
To relax for a second
About the life of a fairy, silvery moon
Later on when the shades are gone
I'm gonna ask you a question
Do I wanna stay psycho no matter
If I live or die
It sure is temptin'

Temptin', temptin' yes I know
Temptin', temptin' yes I know
Temptin', yes I know

I'm sure it is right

I think I could resituate
Expect more than I wanted to
Now that I got you in this perfect mood
Makin' love with you
A place in our beds
Pass me another
Of those full packet
Filled with cigarettes
Later on when the shades are gone
I'm gonna ask you a question
Do I wanna stay psycho
No matter if I live or die
It sure is temptin'
Temptin', temptin' yes I know
Temptin', yes I know
Temptin', temptin' yes I knowI'm sure it is
I'm sure it is, I'm sure it is right

That day

she left me behind
but in my mind
I hear the words
she said to me
I wonder why it had to be one day

she said she loves me
and that was easy to see
but why did she run away
I pray that she'II come back and stay one day

I was walkin' slowly
matter on my way
It seems she was lonely
I have no words to say

where has she gone
no heart has ever been hurt like this that day

U Turn Time

U turn out of the sight
U turn I don't know what it is U turn time
U turn, turn the time

Could have stopped it easily
First you adore me
Now you bore me
I'm tired of your ceremonies
Help me

And leave when
And leave when

Believe me when you leave
You'll be happy
Oooooh yeah

No Promises... No Debts

D Light

Im in bed and shes bending over in a beam of d-light
You all know the sight
Things I cant seem to forget gettin drunk and wet
In a pool of delight
She slips between the sheets and me
I cant resist I cant fight when she turns on the d-light
Achievin that feelin that makes my body glow

Turn on the d-light
Everything sugar and spice
When you turn on the d-light
Baby better keep it alive
Baby gotta keep it alive

Back in bed theres no conversation
Just the mellow sound of a sleepy town
And I cant sleep yet
Wanna make a bet
Theres a million people in the wold
Waitin for it to come around
Everybodys growin up
Everybodys talkin slow
Everybodys takin big steps where I dont know
Believe in what your dreamin
Cause there wont be anywhere else to go..

Don't Close the Door

Another rainy day another cloudy night
Tried everything just to feel all right
But it sure gets lonely
And it sure gets bad
When you feel like a prisoner of your own head

Tonight Im gonna break the spell
Walk out of this flea-bag motel, hell
Tonight Im gonna break this spell
Find me somebody who will. Get me outa here

Another sad cafпїЅ- another dead-end street
Tried everything just to catch that beat
Honey this time I wont fail
Blues gets too boring
How about lets spend the night
Make love in the morning

No no no dont close the door
No no no s not what Im waitin for

Rainy day cloudy night
Tried everything just to feel all right

Tonight Im gonna break the spell

Don't Stop the Show

Youre in for a cold shower
The mans gonna cut the power
Dont stop the show
Come on baby you can fan the fire
Let the flame burn a little higher
Dont stop the show
Yeah well in case of emergency
Im gonna send the kung-fu roadie
Dont stop the show

Time time whos got the time
Time time weve got the time
We got about an hour to get things right
Keep that rock n roll music goin
Through the long long hot night
Im ready willing and able
Im gonna spit it all over your table
Dont stop the show

Heartbeat

Its move groove move movin inside of me
With a steady beat I repeat steady beat
My little muscle man lill power plant dont step on it
Nothin to compete with that priece of meat so complete

Here comes your doctor more
Best one you can afford
The good doctors remedy
Dont need no education
Dont need no dedication
But I need my heartbeat!

After makin love next to me I can feel your heartbeat
I love that motordrive just for keepin you alive
Mines big enough and bad enough for the two of us
Its a dynamo its ruthless

Dont need no information dont need no information
But I need my heartbeat!
Dont need no imagination. Dont need justification
But I need my heartbeat!

Need Her

Im not into false feelins of self-pity
And I dont cry that much
But I feel like a cripple
Little orphan thats lost his little crutch
Isnt it true shes lyin suicidal fool
Always testin her luck
And when Im with her
I wanna be without her again
As soon as I can before I get stuck

Need her to make my life more complicated
Need her to get myself all constipated
Need her like a knife stickin in my back
Need her to get me off the right track
I need her chokin me to the death

Missles and rockets hidden in her pockets
And Im tryin to stay out a range
But she says Im an amateuristic son of a bitch
And she scores another point again
When she slams the door behind her
And I know I wont see her for at least another month or so
My blood starts boilin and I feel like screamin
That I goddamn need her so
But when Im with her
I wanna be without her again
As soon as I can
Thats the way it always goes with Anita

Save Your Skin

The pity and the pleasure and the guilt and the pain
The sun and the moon and the stars in the rain
Its all the same

Goin back to zero
The other side a life
With gasoline and neon lights
Seeping though the night
On a coulour-slide

Hand thats holdin a gun
Its the trigger happy son
Another abnormality
A wolf among the sheep

Its the good time boy, girls toy
Takin another chance
And there he goes
Do you think he knows
On and on he goes
Do you think it shows

Hold on hes coming back
Like a joker jumpin outa the deck
Hit a lotta dust. Hit it hard
Just to prove my lord he can take a lot
Dig it now you still can
Get a smoke-screen and a rifle-man
Holy Christ look at the state hes in

Save your skin take my advice
And keep the kids inside
Save your skin now you can without an alibi
Save your skin take my advice
And leave the dogs outside
Cause here he comes
Its the demon man with the fire in his eyes
Checking out your lies one by one.

Soulkitchens empty
Lotta contrast with last night
Theres broken chairs and broken glasses
Everywhere in sight
Sunlight is blindin my eyes
Minute he walks in
How ya been?

Sellin Out

She just found out what its all about
She dont wanna be another face in the crowd
Gets on her feet
Starts walkin out
Looks like shes got herself some sense of direction now
All the birds in the sky sing in harmony
Sound-track to the title-roll of a success movie
Featuring little miss make believe
Everybody wants her nobody gets her
Its part of the scheme

Theres a shade of doubt shes sellin out
Im glad that she proved the fact
Theres still some a that balls around
Im on the couch
Shes on TV
Cant help thinkin that shes laughin right back at me
Listen all listen here comes my favorite line
Ill do anything just to save that career of mine
All right I dont know what shes doin
Her feet re gettin too big for her shoes
But it sure beats the eight oclock news
Gotta admit it yeah yeah

You just found out what its all about
You dont wanna be another face in the crowd
Get on your feet
Start walkin out
Looks like you got yourself some sense of direction now
Beyond a shade of doubt
Youre sellin out
Im glad that you prove the fact
Theres still some a that balls around
Listen all listen theres a favorite lie
Ill do anything just to boost that career of mine

Snot Love in Spain

Decided it was time to take a boxcar ride
Outa the rain snow and cold
Me and a friend of mine
Guy I met somewhere down the road
Hummin all the way down to Spain on that choo choo train

Safe across the border
Abidin law and order
Lost eachother gettin high on calvados
I sorta looked up with what musta been
The face of gratitude
When she kissed me on my cheek
And winked her little voulez-vous

They trampled on my head like a dancer did somewhere in Madrid
I couldnt feel, I couldnt see
Stole my passport and left a red bandana
On the steps of the cantina
They threw me out the door
I couldnt ask for more

Snot love in Spain
Snot love in vain
Too young to explain
Love in Spain

Well I found out pretty soon
I could dig myself in down the beach poolside
Rip off a German hup two baby all right
She was a waitress
I couldnt resist
Her brother said she will make you a good wife

Well since I was from over the border
Abidin law and order
We spent the night gettin high on calvados
I looked up with what musta been
The face of solitude
When she slapped me on the face
And her brother started gettin rude

They trampled on my head etc

Tiger Bay

Tiger tiger bay watch the shadow play
Tiger tiger bay whats on the menu today
You got hungry again
Gotta make some plans every tiger needs a naked prey

Antilope on the run
Tiger got a piece of an x-ray gun
Antilope on the run
I want I want it

Freeze baby freeze
Danger on the breeze
Squeeze my knee
Hard as you can
Freeze baby freeze
Danger on the breeze
This is your man on the spot
Taking off

Tiger tiger bay catch the shadow play
Tiger tiger bay scratch bite and slay
So hungry again
Never can tell when every tiger needs a naked prey

Weekend Love

The sooner it will be the better
Gonna have to see her right away
It's been a long time since the day I met her
I can't handle being without her one more day

Gonna get the feeling that I'm going insane
Feel so stupid using these cold cliches

You better hurry up Baby, I ain't lying
We're down to nothing but a waste of time
Still remember everything she said
Make no problems, make no debts
All I want is your one day weekend love

She nips her wine without a flinching
She's in control of it all the way
Looks so good
Pretending that she's listening
By the time I fall asleep, she's gone away

She's got no mercy
On a jealous heart
And she said it all right from the start
Make no problems, make no debts
But I love that lady, I got to confess

I want more than just a one day weekend love
I want more than just a one day weekend love
All she wants is just my one day weekend love

The sooner it will be the better
Gonna have to see her right away
It's been a week now since she's been around here
Gonna get the feeling that I'm going insane
Feel so stupid using these cold cliches
I can't handle being without her one more day
And she said it all right from the start
Make no problems, make no debts
But I love that lady, I got to confess

I want more than just a one day weekend love
I want more than just a one day weekend love
All she wants is just my one day weekend love

Prisoner of the Night

Come in Outerspace

Few things really get me mad
Disappointed or truly sad
Im out on the beach lookin for a light
Shootin through the summernight
And when the sun comes up
Im going blind from stretch and strainin
My minds eye

I dont know why I keep it up
Twenty five years gone down on luck
Everybodys seen em by now
I feel like I am bein left out

Cmon in outerspace
I wanna see you too
Spendin all my money on the books
They wrote about you
Tune in outerspace
Something gotta give you face
Maybe its vanity
Dont you thing that you owe it to me

When Im at home insecure
They scrutinize me thats for sure
I take a pill and I fall asleep
Cant shake it off Im in the deep
And when The sun goes down
Im up all right from stretch and strainin
My minds eye

Cut'em Down to Size

Hes got a room at the top and a jag
At the bottom
Looks real pleased inside his boredom
Out on the stretch hes a big time roller
But the dames keep gettin colder & colder
He thinks inch by inch monopolize
But that little girl overthere
If hes got the guts if he dares
Is gonna cut em down to size

Sheilas gettin rude and hungry for
The first prize
Sheilas gettin rude and hungry
Aimin at the eyes
Shes gonna cut em down to size

Theres a whole lotta prettiness going around
So dont let one bad break bring you down
I know a guy who swears he wont find another
Girl like the one that dated him for his brother
Now shes waitin for him to apologize
She just wants to cut him down to size

Going Crazy Again

Saw a black cat in a blind alley way
The way bad luck runs it could be here any day
Landlord raises rent - just about all my
Money spent - the ladys on her way comin
But I know she cant
Ten empty bottles on the floor
Matching ten notches on someones door

Somebody better turn me in
Im going crazy again
Its outa my hands
Got nothin to lose nothin to win
Im goin insane - the whole thing is
Caving in going crazy again
Its gotta be bad timing and the way
Im livin

Everybodys tryin to act surprised
bout the way I get myself revived
Couple a stitches and a light head
Coming around the bend - ninety buck
Treatment gettin myself analyzed
Whos that snake in the corner
Talkin bout disorder - Im gonna crush
It before it gets me alive

Somebody better turn me in
Im going crazy again

I Don't Wanna Be Nobody Else

Somebody asked me funny questions
If you could do it all over again
Would you go for the same thing

And if you could be somebody else
Would you hesitate or go ahead and change

Youre not an animal
But if you could choose from all the zoos
Which beast would you be

I dont wanna be nobody else
I dont wanna be nowhere else
Cause I wouldnt be with you
And I wanna be with you

If you could be livin in a different age
A different time in history
Would you buy a time machine

And if they vote you for president
Would you go to war
A bigger war or would you make amends

Long Blond Animal

Get outa my parlor
Get out my life
Put on that crazy raincoat
Youre gonna need it tonight
Get outa my parlor
Fore I cut you with a knife
Dont want your desease
Dont need your silly jive

I was an innocent bystander
I was a middle of the road man for you
And then you took me for a ride
Showed me all the things you could do
I always listened to the goodlooking lady
A mistake I wont make no more
Cause you might be a goodlooking lady
But youre rotten to the core

Been under your influence
Under your spell too long
Now people keep me at a distance
Everything I do is wrong
My brains disintegrating
Devils singin my song
This cannot continue
This cannot go on

Youre nothin but a long blond animal

My Town

My town is sittin on the ocean
My town paradise livin

Crazy friends party every night

Give you some time
To pack a samsonite
Gotta start lookin for the signs
The signs leadin to my town

Weve got big girls sittin in the red light
Pretty girls bakin in the sunlight

To pack a samsonite

Come alive - get down to my town

Outside the city he lives in
Hes got memories of the better days
And hes floatin in his dream
But tonights the night thats gonna change

Cab at the station

Diamond time ahead - coming in the clear
Lonely hearts disappear - cause Mercys on

Of her strait jacket existance

And throws away the ribbons
Cause tonights the night thats gonna
Change her life - change the whole situation

Baby where can I take you

Who will stop the rain again
We will stop the rain and then....

Slow Down

Well, come on pretty baby, won't you walk with me?
Come on, pretty baby, won't you talk with me?
Come on pretty baby, give me one more chance.
Try to save our romance!
Slow down, baby, now you're movin' way too fast.
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin',
Ow! if you want our love to last.
Well, I used to walk you home, baby, after school,
Carry your books home, too.
But now you got a boyfriend down the street,
Baby what you're tryin' to do?
You better slow down!
Baby, now you're movin' way too fast.
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin',
Ow! if you want our love to last.
Well you know that I love you, tell the world I do.
Come on, pretty baby, why can't you be true?
I need your baby, oh so bad,
The best little woman I ever had

Cut

Baby Dynamite

With a dream in her pocket
Flightticket in hand
She's going off to the crazy land
Green pastures - like blankets unfold
Out the door & down the hall

Crazy river, with a cold shiver
Into doop water she dives
She's got herself involved
& now it's evolved
Into interstellar overdrive

Well I know she's got a talent for finding me
When she happens to be in the vicinity
She'll be on the phone
When the dancin's done
Probably all alone

My baby dynamite - your lucky stars are out tonight
And your cards are on the table
All the odds are in your favour
Dynamite - heaven says you're doin' allright
With a heart that's shaped like a diamond
You've been cut for the assignment

Don't be a moth - hidin' pain
When your wings go up in flame
Money is a rocket - blow it skyhigh
The more you get - the more you fly
Green pastures that unfold
A future carved out of solid gold...

Found in a river - hidin' a treasure
Impossible to find
And your soul's sold to the payroll
While it's tryin' to have a good time

Stayin' up - walkin' around
Talkin' muscle & makin' sounds
Like baby dynamite

Chargin Up My Batteries

Well I couldn't live if I don't see a mirracle happen
Stayin' up being here with you
And I do believe in a mistery that needs unraveling
Stayin' up being here with you, in tune.............
I'm runnin' around in circles painted on the ground

I don't know how they got us here
I don't know why it don't come clear
Confession that I have to make
Expression that I have to fake
This situation on the other hand
Is a matter I cannot comprehend
When plugs don't spark in the dark
I'm chargin' up my batteries
Gimme full capacity
Hey now any day now

It's no tragedy but I hear the good times fadin'
Like a spotlight changin' green to blue
Yes I do believe something better be happenin'
Before the night comes through
Ain't it true.......

Last of the Mohicans

The old man told me and he told me good
The old man taught me every trick in the book
And when he expired in a whispered groan
He said, go crush the empire operate alone

'Cause you're the last of the Mohicans
You're the last of the killer tribe
You better find the man who runs it
The man who's gonna set this world on fire

Behind a wall of titanium
You gotta tear it down stone by stone

In the middle of the evening
In the middle of the night
I'll come a prowlin'
I can smell his hide
Looks like a vampire in broad daylight
So I pull the trigger put an end to the fight

'Cause I'm the last of the Mohicans
I'm the last of the killer tribe
I'm gonna start multiplying
Like a fast eagle in disguise
I won't help you none
Redskin is about to track you down
I disguise protect you no
From the last flash of indigo
Here we go

Lost and Found

I am not an object
Somethin' you throw away
I am no piece of junk
That's been left on a stationary train
I want you to get a message
To the one that's gonna set me free
Tell her to hurry - tell her to recognize me
'Cause I'm beginning to believe
That forever I'll live on a shelf
Of the lost & found

Between a cane and an umbrella
A wallet and a chain of keys
My dreams are full of you
And my nights without you are empty
I'm going under - going under
Had a name - had a number
Went and lost it all instead

Now I'm beginning to believe
That I'll never get to leave this place
They called lost & found
Yeah I'm beginning to believe
That forever I'll be another case
Of the lost & found

I am not an object
A person you throw away
Some piece of junk
That's been left on a stationary train
I want you to get a message
To the one that's gonna set me free
Tell her to hurry - tell her to identify me
Yeah I'm beginning to believe
That forever I'll be another case
Of the lost & found

Secrets

Tell me what's happenin'
Curiosity doin' me in
Something strange happenin'
You keep a closed door behind you
Got a window I can't see through
Lock your mail inside a drawer
Never did me like that before

Don't tell me it's another one of your secrets

I smell conspiracy
Don't let me down
I'm on the outside baby
Waitin' for a friendly sound
Don't let me go to pieces
Celebratin' all alone
I come apart bit by bit
Add a number to your top secret list
In between hot & cold
You'll find the truth is
Working against us
I wanna know more

Don't tell me it's another one of your secrets

You make a move clandestine
Underground hide & seek
Getaway with incidents
By lack of evidence
On the verge of committing a crime
Sendin' out a private eye
Defender of innocence
Trigger of coincidence
Right between hot & cold
Right between the left and the right eye
Tonight for instance

Don't tell me it's another one of your secrets

The Devil Made Me Do It

All set - the court's in session
This judge - 's got no compassion
Witness - show me your right hand
I swear - nothin' but the truth now

I was allright till she came along
I was allright then it all went wrong

The devil made me do it
It was the act of a man possessed now
The devil made me do it
Your honour I am innocent

D.A.'s - got a mighty strong case
Lawman - saw the whole thing
Confess - Yeah I stole that furcoat
Confess - Yeah I stole a B.M.W.
Confess - I was only tryin' to keep my baby satisfied
Bullshit - That's the truth now
Bullshit - so help me God

I was allright till she came along
I was allright then it all went wrong

The devil made me do it
It was the act of a man possessed now
The devil made me do it
Your honour I am innocent

You should have seen her slide out of her neglige
Her skin was hot touch intoxicating
And if you were me you would have done the same
So spare me the gutter
Save me from the ball & chain

The devil made me do it
It was the act of a man possessed now
The devil made me do it
Your honour I am innocent

The Future

You better get out of the line of fire
If you wanna stay alive
I always knew it would take a liar
In this brave new world to survive

It's gonna happen in the future
It didn't happen in the past
It's gonna happen in the future
It didn't happen in the past

Rule and devide and control the seven seas
Your power and pride guarantee defeat
So fine your lips on mine light a dangerous flame
When love grows in exile it'll find you back again

Well they shot you down on the steps of a white house
Climbin' up to resque me
They said you made a giant step for mankind
But the plate's still empty "c'est la vie"

It's gonna happen in the future
It didn't happen in the past
It's gonna happen in the future
It didn't happen in the past

Rule and devide and control the seven seas
Your power and pride guarantee defeat
So fine your lips on mine light a dangerous flame
When love grows in exile it'll find you back again

Twilight Zone

Somewhere in al lonely hotelroom
theres a guy starting to realize
That hes eternal fate has turn it's back on him
And it's two a.m.
It's two a.m. the fear has gone
I'm sitting here waitin' the gun still warm
Maybe my connection is tired of taken chances
Yeah there's a storm on the loose sirenes in my head
I'm wrapped up in silence all circuits are dead
I cannot decode my whole life spins into a frenzy
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse
Feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go
Now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse
Feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go
Now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone
I'm falling down a spiral destination unknown
A double crossed Messenger all alone
I can't get no connection I can't get through
Where are you
Well the night weighs heavy on his guilty mind
This far from the borderline
And when the hitman comes
He knows damn well he has been cheated
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse
Feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go
Now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse
Feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go
Now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know
When the bullet hits the bone

N. E. W. S.

Clear Night Moonlight

I wanna go ahead untill I just run out of gas
We gotta beat the road with a four-wheel thunder
There's a Cadillac dealer in Kansas City counting money
And the highway patrol ain't going nowhere!

Don't say no, don't say no
Don't make me grieve
Don't say no, don't say no
You gotta feel the breeze

On a clear night moonlight
You and me and the car
Under a thousand stars
Clear night moonlight
That's all the magic we need
That's all the magic we need
So, don't you go turnin' my dream
Into a nightmare
C'mon honey, let's ride right out of here!

Imagine you and I, leavin' it all behind
Find another world beyond the turnpike
There'll be lots of people uptight
Maybe some F.B.I.
And your daddy screaming bloody murder

Don't say no, don't say no
Don't make me grieve
Don't say no, don't say no
You gotta feel the breeze

On a clear night moonlight
You and me and the car
Under a thousand stars
Clear night moonlight
That's all the magic we need
That's all the magic we need
So, don't you go turnin' my dream
Into a nightmare
C'mon honey, let's ride right out of here!

Picture the two of us baby it's a cruel summer night
We're so happy, so much in love
You remember how the story goes
At the end of the rainbow
There's a bag of gold

Clear night moonlight
You and me and the car
Under a thousand stars

Enough is Enough

Well, not too long ago
I ran into you
A pair of lonely eyes
And a pair of broken-hearted shoes
And then the other night you were as cold as snow
You kept your blue jeans on
And I never heard you leaving the room
Woke up, half-past noon
I was alone in bed
I could still smell your perfume
Drifting through the smoke signals
Of your blach cigarettes
You got a hold on me
Straight to the bathroom
When my nerves went cracking down in my knees!

Enough - enough is enough!
If it's love, nothing's tougher than love
Written on my shaving mirror
In lipstick blood color:
Amigo, leave it alone!
You've gotta leave it alone
Leave it alone!
You've gotta leave it alone

Pick up the telephone
Start investigating, you know that Cuban girl
With the Castro impersonation?
I been checking around
With the revolutionary
All I have is a mirror with a message
And a memory
You'll never understand
What comes over me
When I read her lines
Written on the face I see
Could you tell her, please

If it's love, I wanna know where she hides that love
Enough is never enough
Nothing can stop me now
No, no one can stop me now
I can't leave it alone
I can't leave it alone

Fist in Glove

In a room with artificial light
Where the curtains have all been drawn tight
Behind a table that's out of place
Same old dream is being chased
Behind these walls no sound is heard
Beyond this door it's another world

Fist in glove
Don't wanna shake the right hand, baby
Before I know what the left hand wants
Fist in glove
Don't tell me that the sign you're making
Is the same one your daddy's done

Mother, mother, your love is unsuspected
Mother, mother, your love goes undetected now
Like a fist in glove
Like a fist in glove

In this room with artificial light
No one's certain if it's day or night
Ten square feet in a worst kinda taste
All your hope inside is laid to waste
Masses in the street, counted a million
All in protest against armageddon

Fist in glove
Don't wanna shake the right hand, baby
Before I know what the left hand wants
Fist in glove
Don't tell me that the sign you're making
Is the same one your daddy's done

Mother, mother, your love is unsuspected
Mother, mother, your love goes undetected now
Like a fist in glove
Like a fist in glove

I'll Make It All Up To You

In a painting by Van Gogh
Saw a street covered with black snow
The people move in a nervous stripe
Blues, red and yellow
I read your letter for the seventh time
The ink is getting close to fade away
But it still brings the ocean back to mind
In this here desert without oases

Shouting at the man in the moon
I'll make it all up to you, make it all up to you
The rhytm and the dance of the loon
I'll make it all up to you, make it all up to you
And the night is a horoscopic sight
While the sun sets fire to the dune
I'll make it all up to you

I remember your face and your Picasso
Pale as sugar, sweet and low
Your hair in a ponytail and dyed
Eyes looking up from down below
Looking for an excuse to make it real
Cause I can see the help the way that I feel
Looking for an excuse to make it real
Cause I cannot help the way that I feel

I've been shouting at the man in the moon
I'll make it all up to you, I'll make it up to you
The rhytm and the dance of the loon
I'll make it up to you, I'll make it up to you
And the night is a horoscopic sight
While the sun sets fire to the dune
I'll make it all up to you
I'll made it all up to you

I've been shouting at the man in the moon
I'll make it all up to you, make it all up to you
The rhytm and the dance of the loon
I'll make it up to you, I'll make it all up to you
I've been shouting at the man in the moon
I'll make it all up to you, make it all up to you
I've been shouting at the man in the moon
I'll make it all up to you, I'll make it up to you
The night is a horoscopic sight
While the sun sets fire to the dune
I'll make it all up to you

It's Over Now

Can you tell me what it's all about now?
There's a rumor spreading all over town yeah
You'll never guess it or understand, baby
Start living with a new idea

It's over - close the book
Over - off the hook
It's over - like a war in peace
It's over....

Oh! I'm running from the guillotine
Carve my name in the hanging tree
Never thought that I was such a fool
But when it's over, baby
What can you do?

It's over - you better believe it
It's over - nothing can change it
It's over - can't you see
It's over....

I was only seventeen and I loved you so
I'll never loved a girl the way I loved you girl
I was only seventeen and I loved you so
I'll never loved a girl the way I loved you girl

Oh I'm heading for a dead-man's curve
Graveyard's on the next left turn
Never thought I was such a fool
But when it's over, baby
What can you do

It's over - you'd better believe it
It's over - nothing can change it
It's over - can't you see
It's over....

I was only seventeen and I loved you so
I'll never loved a girl the way I loved you girl
I was only seventeen and I loved you so
I'll never loved a girl the way I loved you girl
Over.... yeah
It's all over now

Mission Impossible

He drove his car into the city
The engine hot, the heat was on
He realized he'd come to a crossroad
And there's only one way he knows

They're not gonna get me
They're not gonna get me
And I'm never gonna be betrayed no more

Well he was back and someone had to pay for
For the time that he had done
When diamonds shine on pretty ladies
Stool-pigeon is always around

They're not gonna get me
They're not gonna get me
And I'm never gonna be betrayed no more

Step in my boots and see if you can make it
Take my chain and see if you can break it
Step in my boots and see if you can make it
Take my chain and see if you can break it
Break it, break it

Mission impossible
Chased by a low invincible
I don't mind, I don't care
I'm used to fighting my way back
(He's unaware of a)
Mission impossible
Chased by a low invincible
I don't mind, I don't care
I'm used to fighting my way back
I ain't scare

It was a fact that he was smarter than the others
He still controlled his part of town
It was an eye for an eye in the shadows
Looking down the barrel of a gun

They're not gonna get me
They're not gonna get me
And I'm never gonna be betrayed no more

Step in my boots and see if you can make it
Take my chain and see if you can break it
Step in my boots and see if you can make it
Take my chain and see if you can break it
Break it, break it

It's pitiful, shameful, all I hear and read and see
Four directions of the wind
And four way misery

Well once upon a time I was a sailorman
Curious about my destiny
So I sailed away on a ship of slaves
The rest is a two-day history
There's gotta be a lesson for you and me

From the things that we all studdy?

Let me hear you say

Work it out!

Orwell's Year

We have been waitin' for this
To put an end to all bliss
Oh there's works to be done
Oh there's work under the sun
Happy New Year!
In the back alley's
Millionaire valley's
Trafalgar Time Square and the who knows where!
Big brother's to watching you
Baby's got a computer tutor
Daddy is a trouble shooter
Fat cookie in a soylent green
From a kitchen that you've never seen
It's all shiny chrome - attaching your chromosomes
Say - count to four -
Count to 1 - 9 - 84
Welcome
Welcome to 1984

Orwell's year is here!

Yeah
It's the ministry of energy
The ministry of ecology
The university of food and economy
The ministry of war and explosions
The ministry of you and me
Minus Orwell's sanity
Welcome everybody - to be a nobody
The ministry of heavenly peace
Big brother's watching you!

Orwell's year is here!

Say you wanna hear some more
Big brother's watching you!

Something Heavy Going Down

On the streets that go by number
Still can't figure out how to get home
There is no life lines only dead lines
Sure picked a fine time to be born
First you taste it then you're wasted
By the time you're almost 16 years old
Everything used to be so simple
Like the beating of a heart
Dedicated to my little darling
Right until the day we'd part
There's fist on the door
I can hear it knocking
Gotta check it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt
There's something heavy going down
And there's more to it than a pistol and a gun
Something heavy going down
On a midnight operation when the searchlights, make your skin crawl
My reaction to the action is
I don't wanna be doing this at all
Breaking rules that are made in schools
That teach you how to be successful
Used to be so simple
Like the beating of a heart
Dedicated to my little darling
Right until the day we'd part
There's fist on the door
I can hear it knocking
Gotta check it out
Beyond a shadow of a doubt

And there's more to it than a pistol and a gun
There's something going down, something heavy going down
There's more to it than a rocket and a bomb
There's something going down, something heavy going down
And there's more to it than a pistol and a gun
There's something going down down down down yeah
Something going down

When the Lady Smiles

When the lady smiles
You know it drives me wild
Her lips are warm and resourceful
When her fingertips go drawing
Circles in the night
And the mood is soft and sensual
Then I love it, yeah, I love it
It's the answer to all my dream
Everytime it feels
Like feels bit shaking
It doesn't matter
A glass is falling, I hear it shatter
Maybe it's raining, faster and faster
Shadow dancing together
Oh I, I'm betting on the game of love
Oh I, I'm betting that love is gonna come out
When the walls no longer shout
Back at me and I'm feeling proud

When the lady smiles
She holds me in her hand
As a matter of fact
She could always let me down
But when the lady smiles
I can't resist her call
As a matter of fact I don't resist at all
'Cause I'm walking on clouds
And she is leading the way

My friends tell me
She's the beast inside your paradise
I guess you've heard it all before
A fallen angel that has got you hypnotized
And that always needs some more
And I love it, yeah I love it
She done nothing to mislead me
'Cause every time we meet
The earth is shaking
It doesn't matter
A glass is falling, I hear it shatter
Maybe it's raining, faster and faster
Shadow dancing together
Oh I, I'm betting on the game of love
Oh I, I'm betting that love is gonna come out
When the walls no longer shout
Back at me and I'm feeling proud

When the lady smiles
She holds me in her hand
As a matter of fact
She could always let me down
But when the lady smiles
I can't resist her call
As a matter of fact I don't resist at all
'Cause we're walking on clouds
And she is leading

Oh no, oh no, oh nooooooooooooo

The Hole

A Shout in the Dark

It's rainin' on a summernight
I'm gonna take a ride on a dreamboat
Don't know 'bout it's destination
Higher than the clouds & the angels
Further than a million roads forever - away
From the deathpatroll

'Cause when I close my eyes
I dream of freedom
And when I open 'em
I see a multitude of good reasons
To get the hell outa - here!

Tonight I'm breaking out
Tonight I made a vow
That any minute now
I'm gonna climb the wall of freedom on my own
Yeah - tonight I'm full of doubt
Tonight there's no more doubt
That any second now
I'm gonna face a life of treason on my own
I hear a shout in the dark
A scream in the alley
It seems like the devil runs this whole city - yeah yeah
It seems like the devil shows me no pity
I'm going home

Tried it all day lord
Time for me to kick off my working shoes
There's nothin' left to lose
Behind the tired buildings
Places that are haunting me lie lingering
Beyond the Berlin Wall
I hear it whisper I can hear it call
At night the sky for my hungry eye - hides a rainbow
Behind the concrete door

Have a Heart

He reads a book every now & then
Goes to a show every now & then
He's nothing more then he might have been
Nothin' less than an average man
He hates to lose & he loves to win
He always plays it by the rules of the game
There goes the girl he's in love with
She playes a game called hard to get -
Called hard to get -
Oh baby - you're you're so hard to get -

The only thing in the world that I'm after
Prettier than a magazine
I lie awake & I dream of our love

Have a heart for a lonely boy
He's ready for a night of joy
He's ready he's ready for a hand to hold
Have a heart for a lonely boy
He's ready for a night of joy
He's ready he's ready for a hand to hold
He's ready for a hand to hold

Wise men say the times 're changing
They say it's a sign of the times
How long will you keep me waiting
Could it be I'm the last in line
How long can the armour take it
When it's ready for you to shine
You're the girl that I'm in love with
You're playin' a game called hard to get
Called hard to get
Oh baby baby you're you're hard to get

Hey little girl - queen of fun & laughter
Can't you see me begginn' like a dog
Can't you hear me scratchin' at your door

Have a heart for a lonely boy
He's ready for a night of joy
He's ready he's ready for a hand to hold
Have a heart for a lonely boy
He's ready for a night of joy
He's ready he's ready ready ready for your hand
Have a heart for the lonely boy

Have a heart for a lonely boy
He's ready for a night of joy
He's ready he's ready for a hand to hold
Have a heart for a lonely boy
He's ready for a night of joy
He's ready he's ready for a hand to hold

Jane Jane

She weighs her words on a silver tongue
While she cradles the phone
Moves through the room
I can hear her lightin' a cigarette
But so far she said nothin' yet

Oh - they say that your love is poison
I think that it's just uncommon
Jane Jane

There's a dark side to you that turns me on
I wish I knew where it's commin' from
You're like a spanish dancer on a T.V. set
You hide a rattlesnake under your dress

They say that your love is poison
I say that it's just uncommon

Jane Jane Jane - don't make the same mistake again
Jane Jane - don't break the chain
That ties you to my heart
Jane Jane Jane listen babe
It's not a game anymore

I'm gonna throw myself in a wishing well
I'm gonna go spindizzy on a carrousel
Gonna gonna gonna drown myself in the pourin' rain
And wash up on some far away shore again

They say that your love is poison
I can't do without it darlin'
Jane Jane Jane - don't make the same mistake again
Jane Jane - don't break the chain
That ties you to my heart
Jane Jane Jane you've gotta listen to me babe Jane Jane
Oh Jane - you've gotta start makin' sense baby Jane
It's not a game it's not a game anymore........
Don't you know that we've gotta change
Jane Jane

Jump and Run

Time, time, time to change
But than you gotta sacrifice
Don't you know it's not a game
Killing your own brother

I hear footsteps on the stairs (jump and run boy)
And they're fading in the dark (don't jump and run boy)
I hear footsteps on the stairs (jump and run boy)
But they don't leave no mark (don't jump and run boy)

Jump & run
When you leave it all behind
When you recognize the truth
And you don't wanna stand aside
Yeah, yeah
When you burn your bridges down
There ain't no tomorrow
But you're looking down down into a deep hole

Gimme gimme light, gimme light, gimme light

Time, time, time may change
When the seed of the lie's been planted
I can hear the goose-step coming
Follow the leader blindfolded

I hear footsteps on the stairs (jump and run boy)
And they're fading in the dark (don't jump and run boy)
I hear footsteps on the stairs (jump and run boy)
But they don't leave no mark (don't jump and run boy)

Jump & run
When you leave it all behind
When you recognize the truth
And you don't wanna stand aside
Yeah, yeah
When you burn your bridges down
There ain't no tomorrow
But you're looking down down into a deep hole
Into a deep hole

Love in Motion

Oh-oh my love's in motion
Yeah, you've got me on the run
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby 'cross the ocean
That's where daddy points his gun

The truth comes out
Your lies 're never fast enough
The truth comes out
Like a pain in your sweet little ass dear
Take a ride on a slow train
Take a good look at your memory
Think it all over again
Make a choice & make sure you've decided

Mmm - my love's in motion
You've got me on the run
Yeah, yeah, yeah my love's in motion
Everything's upside down

Two fine hearts
They don't cheat, 'cause they're meant to last
Two fine hearts, they bleed when they're torn apart
Do not think I'm a bad boy
Maybe just a little broken toy
I've gotta thank you babe
Before I turn around - turn around

Oh-oh my love's in motion
Yeah, you've got me on the run
Oh-oh baby 'cross the ocean
That's where daddy points his gun

Yeah my love's in motion
Oh, you've got me on the run
Yeah yeah baby 'cross the ocean
That's where daddy points his gun

My love's in motion
Everything's upside down

Quiet Eyes

Tony - my head's on a pillow
Clock strikes it's the count of four
Four hours of tossin' & turnin'
In a big brass bed
I've tried all the tricks in the book now
But I just can't sleep no more
Tony, what's happenin' to me
I'm tired & I'm cold
Somehow I'm imagining things
Movin' in the shadow
And my face is a painting crying
In the heat of the sun

Let the world outside - pay it's dues
I'll never know why - no matter how high
It's a sign that's been sealed & delivered
Tony, it's lookin' into your

Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silence - & the night lasted seven years

Meanwhile I'm counting all the hours
& I've counted all the days
On the pages of a calendar
& I threw it all away
Tony I'm tryin' to make some sense baby
I'm always tryin' to get through to you
Maybe you're the last one to notice
How much I've been lovin' you

Let the world outside - pay it's dues
I'll never know why - no matter how high
It's a sign that's been sealed & delivered
Tony, it's lookin' into your

Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silence - & the night lasted seven years

Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silence - & the night lasted seven years
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silence - & the night lasted seven years

Save the Best for Later

I want you, yes I want you
How come you don't want me too
Like moonshine on silver water
The sun will shine only for me & you
I can't stop thinkin' about you
Can't stop tryin', baby to escape the blues

No don't close your eyes
You need a change of attitude
Is it possible for a girl to face the truth
It's a certified lie
Works every time
But I can't deny, that I'm crazed out on you

Well I can't buy you no roses
Can't give you anythin' you need
But I'm a landslide & I'm comin'
And well you better get yourself prepared for it
'Cause I can't stop thinking about you
Can't imagine livin' a life without you in it

No don't close your eyes
I wanna talk to you
Is it possible for a girl to face the truth
It's a certified lie
Works every time
But I can't deny, that I'm crazed out on you

Cross my heart
Cross my heart
I'm a qualified fool for you
Cross my heart
It's my dream & baby you're in it
Cross my heart

Hot sheets of satin
& a fountain of pearls in the next room
Oh it's so exaggerated
Like a Chinese wall to wall now
We'll save the best for later
Always the best for later
Just can't hide the fact
That I'm all crazed out & I can't hold back

A jewel in a crown & I'll find you one
Any wish is my command
Small-talk at the gambling table
& you'll finally understand
We'll save the best for later
Always the best for later
Oh mercy mama -
Have some mercy & some faith in me

Every night a secret sundown
Whispers it to the breeze
Nothin' special honey
Only one more basic fact
You make me talk like that

There's nothing in the world
That can stop me from savin' the best for later
There's nothing in the world
That can stop me from savin' the best for later
I'm always save the best for later
Always save the best for later

They Dance

Down in the latin quarter
Down on dead - end street
Down in the basement brother
That's where I'm bound to be
Trading payday weekly
For a welfare check
My baby's cryin' crazy
Ain't seen nothing yet

Own a cardboard shelter
With a classic view on Rio
Sellin' cigarettes to the tourists down below
Girl's a sixteen year old carnival queen
Too poor to strike a match
If you know what I mean
If you know what I mean

But they dance to that voodoo rhythm
Oh - they can't do without it
They dance it's such an old tradition
That your soul belongs
Your soul belongs to music
They dance

Not too far from the ghetto
Life has a different feel
Food has a different flavour
Boot tap a different beat
Doberman's will be watchin'
Your every single move
You know you can't trust a stranger
Baby, oh ain't that the truth
Ain't that the truth now

They dance to that voodoo rhythm
Oh - they can't do without it
They dance it's such an old tradition
That your soul belongs
Your soul belongs to music

They dance to that voodoo rhythm
Oh - they can't do without it
They dance it's such an old tradition
Their souls belongs
Their soul belongs to music

That's why they dance!

They dance to that voodoo rhythm
Oh - they can't live without it
but they dance it's such an old tradition
Their your soul belongs
Their soul belongs to music

That's why you dance!

Why Do I

We swing high - we swing low
Never worry 'bout a dull moment
You're mine & I'm yours
We fight while we know that we shouldn't

Ten dollar - ten times
On sale to the highest bidder
Ten dollar - ten times
Is the price of love considered

You're right & I'm wrong
You always knew a good thing in the first place
One sundown - one moondown
One hole in a sky - blue ceiling

Ten dollar - ten times
Everytime you hold the trigger
Ten dollar - ten times
Is the price of love

Why do I hurt you so
Why can't I just let you go
Why do I hurt you so
While I idolize you forever more

Your yes against my no
We never worry 'bout a dull moment
You're mine - I'm yours
We fight while we know we shouldn't

Ten dollar - ten times
Hurts you so

Keeper of the Flame

Can Do That

Yeah, you can do that!

Well take a look at me now here
Another sucker ruining the atmosphere
It's gotta be the story of my life
You know I'll mean from the very embryo start
I've got piles & piles & piles of goo goos
You know, how about you? How about you?
No one take notice of a little thing
Start to grow into a big thing
Bigger than anything
Well, you can join the commando's
Be just like a little Rambo
You can challenge the world
And you'll never know that a wind will blow
And it's gonna be cold
But you'll always keep on singin'
Like you've been told
You can do that, you can do that

Yeah! You can do that
With the power of your soul just go ahead!
Gotta get back on top again

Well, meanwhile - broke - busted - hungry and not trusted
Thanks for the lousy deals
You know, tell me all about it
No stop! I wanna keep my ears clean
I got goosebumps in the wrong places
Screaming - looks like the vultures are gathering
You can do that

Yeah! You can do that
With the power of your soul just go ahead!
Gotta get back on top again

Well no matter how thin that string
I wanna hold on to that thing
They say when the goin' gets tough the tough get goin'
But can you prove it baby?
The fairytale - wisdom - oxygen
Give me a breath of your precious oxygen
Precious, precious oxygen...

Yeah! You can do that
With the power of your soul just go ahead!
Gotta get back on top again

Circles

I'm up & you're kinda low
Are you provin', that you don't want me no more
Mixed up and I'm all alone
And I'm ridin' around in circles

I've been up - I've been way down low
I've been up & down that road before
I've been up & down that road before
I've been ridin' around in circles
Ridin' around in circles. Yeah, yeah!

Everyone knows the way, everybody's right
And everyone knows' where eveybody's drivin' at

I've been right, I've been wrong
I've been uptown and I've been pitifull
I've been racked, I've been sold
I've been ridin' around in circles

High - low - I've been down the streets where I once met you
I've been hot, I've been really really cold
I've been ridin' around in circles
Ridin' around in circles. Yeah, yeah!

Everyone knows the way, everybody's right
And everyone knows' where eveybody's drivin' at

Don't mind that I don't know where to go
Every night I've been dreamin' that I'm not alone
Everywhere I go...
Early in the morning, late at night
In the evening - All day by your side! Yeah!

I give up - no more
I've been up to it & I've been here before
I've been broke - for a loan
I keep ridin' around in circles

You look beautiful baby
Walkin' down the sidewalk with that chip upon your shoulder
I've bee hidin', I've been searchin'
I've been ridin' around in circles

Everyone knows the way, everybody's right
And everyone knows' where eveybody's drivin' at

You've been hidin', I've been ridin'

Distant Love

It was a night like any other night
As it moved into a new day
Came up to a crossroad
Colours turnin' to grey yeah
You had troubles way back home
So you had a good excuse
How could you resit her anyway
Her big brown eyes made you lose made you lose your mind
She knocked your defences down
All you could do was look at her
While she watced you coming down

She said pedal to the metal, just a 7 minute drive
Next thing you remember...
Is a love sentence for life
Heaven came to earth, like an angel from above
You had to slip away from it
You had to run away from her
And you knew she wouldn't let you

Two hearts on fire
One dream tangled and wired
Two bodies swaying, each one alone
To the beat of a distant love

Time can't heal the wounds of seperation
The pain just grows in your imagination
A sudden glance, a message in your notebook wakes you up
But when you call she's always off the hook
So you get yourself a ticket and you don't wanna know why
You've found out you're an expert on makin' up lies
You once traded a dream for the life you're livin' in
But you can't run away from it
You better try to forget her
And you know she won't let you

Two hearts on fire
One dream tangled and wired
Two bodies swaying, one dream never fading
Two hearts on fire
One dream tangled and wired
Two bodies swaying, one dream never fading
To the beat of a distant love

Keeper of the Flame

Mother mother, gotta understand
That mother mother we've got murder on our hands
Your sons & your daughters
Rapin' eachother on the steps of a church
They no longer depend on

The cry of a wolf in a lightnin' storm
The scream of a hawk, anxious to get airborn
The fear of a mouse crawlin' out of a hole
Just a few of many stories, waitin' to be told

Hungry for good
No boogie in the scheme
And baby the sky will never be the same
From many miles away I came
From where the gods smile upon you & play, yeah yeah
Your job may be no good, it's just a passing thing
The universe will always change
And I happen to carry a name
I am, I am - The Keeper of the flame

A message carved into an arm with a shark tooth
Ever so delicate, ever so smooth
The truth is only waitin' and it stabs a deeper wound
Than all the lies you vagabonds have whispered over you

Hey hey hey, look out for the drifter on a train
Hey hey hey, look out for a showdown in the rain
With the Keeper of the flame

Gather all you hunters, and gather all you prey
Listen to what the wind and the trees have got to say
To all you marble statues and you bricks of clay
Blow you all to kingdom come on your judgement day!

Hungry for good
No boogie in the scheme
And baby the sky will never be the same
From many miles away I came
From where the gods smile upon you & play, yeah
Your job may be no good, it's just a passing thing
The universe will always change
And I happen to carry a name
I am, I am - The Keeper of the flame

My Killer My Shadow

Any where you go - I will follow - I will follow
Everytime you call - I can hear you

My killer my shadow - where ever I go, you follow
Through the busy street - straight and narrow - wide and shallow
yeah

(Where ever you go) - you make me forget all my yesterdays
you made me care not for my toworrow
(Where ever you go) - my my my my killer
You make me understand - understand
All the way to the end - yeah!

That I'll be damned, damned, damned in Amsterdam
Yeah I'll be damned, damned, damned in Amsterdam

American poker - Russian roulette
Who's that floatin' underneath the bridge
When the lights go dim - And the crowd go home
I can feel you - I can feel you - Amsterdam
I can feel - I can feel

My killer my shadow - you make me beg, steal and borrow
(where ever you go) where ever I go
(in the moonlight) - you lead me to a certain fate
(in the nightlife) - tell me now - don't wait
(where ever you go)
(in the moonlight) - hesitate
(in the neonlight) - tell me before it's too late

Will I be damned, damned, damned in Amsterdam
Will I be damned, damned, damned in Amsterdam
Will I be damned, damned, damned in Amsterdam

(where ever you go) - killer - killer - shadow - shadow
(in the moonlight) - uh - I can feel the heat

Nighthawks

Every time when the night falls
I can feel my temperature risin'
Every time when the night calls
And the moon seems to be smilin'

Yeah! Don't talk about it
Just take your wings & fly
Yeah! Don't worry 'bout it
We're all goin' flyin' tonight

We can wing it on the wildest storm
Baby we're gonna dive in - dive in
Wow, baby like the night before
C'mon & watch the nighthawks flyin'
C'mon & watch the nighthawks flyin'

Low down city in the rain in the summertime
Don't it wanna make you cry & die before your time

Nighthawks, nighthawks

Everytime when the night falls
My baby gest sentimental
Everytime when the night calls
And the mood gets temperamental

Yeah! Don't think about it
Just shake your wings & fly
Yeah! Don't worry 'bout
No sign in your eyes of fatigue
You've been jailed before
Ride on the wind
You need more, more, more, more, more

Let me tell you that a nighthawk is cryin'
Don't cry like you know cryin'
Let me tell you that a nighthawk is dyin'
Don't die like you know dyin'

One Word

There's a heartache, come over me
Can't be imagination
I worry & I cry for you
Guess I'll have to learn to live with it

A heartache hauntin' me
Feels like electrocution
I'm hurt, you never understood
One word - one word

Who are you, sittin' on your throne?
I used to be a slave in your temple
Now you tell me that you're so alone
On the run for your life

One look through the eyes of a stranger
One night in the arms of a fool
One glance down the shaft of a goldmine
Nothin' could be better
Nothin' could be better
Do now, do now what you wanna do
Tell a lie now, tell the truth
There's gotta be more than a thousand roads to Rome
So follow your footsteps home
One word, makes all a difference in the world

One is being born
Two is what you're going for
Three is the price you pay
For what you've been lookin' for
And the word is love. Love!

One look through the eyes of a stranger
One night in the arms of a fool
One glance down the shaft of a goldmine
Nothin' could be better
Nothin' could be better
Do now, do now what you wanna do
Tell a lie now, tell the truth
There's gotta be more than a thousand roads to Rome
So follow your footsteps home

One word, makes all a difference in the world
Make one hell of a difference in the world
One word, one single word

Say My Prayer

Daylight gone, nighttime come
I hear the executioners song & I, I say my prayer
The colour of darkness, wages of sin
Crime of innocence
A case of doubt on your hands
I say my prayer

I remember when I used to run free
Without a judge - without a jury
& the world was mine - all mine
Yeah, all the little things mean a lot
When emptiness is all you've got on your mind
Doin' time. I say my prayer, say my prayer

Soul in chains, heart on ice
Freedom pays a higher price than love
I say my prayer
The colour of blindness, shade of a skin
In the eyes of a witness, makes me fold my hands
And say my prayer

I remember when I used to run free
Without a judge - without a jury
& the world was mine - all mine
Yeah, all the little things mean a lot
When emptiness is all you've got on your mind
Doin' time, doin' time

And you say your prayer, while there's nothin' left
There's nothin' more to expect
And you say your prayer to yourself and nobody else
Why don't you trust me

Daylight gone, nighttime come
I hear the executioners song & I, I say my prayer
Two steps up, nine steps down
One way ticket, ten feet underground
I say my prayer...

Too Much Woman

All your lipgloss & eye shadow
So seductive - so mature
Oh, you're such a femme fatale
Only one look
You can't touch the merchandise
Keep dreamin' of you
Thinkin' of you
Walkin' with you
Runnin' away from you
I love the way you lie to me
My sexual fantasy
My Queen believe me
I'll always be waitin' for an opportunity!

But you're too much woman, not enough girl
You'd sell your soul for a diamond & a pearl
Too much woman, not enough girl
Rather be livin' in a grown up world
Too much woman, can't you see?
You're too much woman, but not enough girl for me

Sittin' in your ivory tower
Waitin' for the man
Waitin' for the power
Lookin' at the sand in the hourglass
Listnin' to the sound of the cars go pass your window!
Baby, baby

I'll keep dreamin' of you
Thinkin' of you
Walkin' with you
Runnin' away from you

You're too much woman, not enough girl
You'd sell your soul for a diamond & a pearl
Too much woman, not enough girl
Rather be livin' in a grown up world
Too much woman, can't you see
You're too much woman, but not enough girl for me

Turn the World Around

I believe that all around
We're all waiting for a sound
That will break the barriers down
And will make us all feel better
After all the madness' gone
After all I feel it's comin'
There's a slogan on the wall
Like a finger on a trigger
There's a truth behind it all
I believe it's gettin' bigger
But it's all up to you
And it's all up to me
Yeah, it's all up to me

Your sweettalking won't turn the world around
Meet me underground turn the world around
Climb a mountain yeah, cry me an ocean too
Turn the world around, turn the world around
There's no problem baby, you're right I'm wrong
Let's strike a bargain, cause together we're strong

All your sense, all your love
Can't stop the fire from above
Don't you know?
When I go, you're gonna go too

Let's turn the world around!

Darlin' dauhter, I've been told
Gettin' younger, turnin' old
Hides a moment caught in time
In a mirror that's go blind
I can see in my minds' eye
We may get the future right
There's a slogan on the wall
Like a finger on a trigger
There's a truth behind it all
and everyday it's gettin' bigger
But it's all up to you, oh I know
And it's all up to me

Don't say impossible, when it's possible
We're responsible
Let's turn the world around
Only one light to follow
Only one dream to share
Let's strike a bargain
It's gonna get us there...

All your sense, all your love
Can't stop the fire from above
Don't you know?
When I go, you're gonna go too

The Naked Truth

Another 45 Miles

Here comes the night
A veil over the light
In the distance some shadows of the clouds in the sky
Ive got to get home, to my child, my wife

Here comes the night
Im scared to death, got to get me a ride
It looks like the road is swallowing me up
Gotta hurry home, dont dare to look back
Blueville is straight ahead

Another 45 miles to go
Another 45 miles before Im home
I wish i could pay the sun to run
Then I had some more time, with my wife, my son

Clouds in the sky
Gathering for a fight
Chasing their prey, till it cant go on
I mend my pace, cos my bride is waiting home

I Can't Sleep Without You

Silver like a fish - slapping on my tongue
You speak to me - the way you do
Hide me all summer in your arms
Hold me the way I like you to
You fill my cup 'till it's cracking up

The button that says alarm
Says I'm not supposed to
Be like a champ that's going down
Fightin' to get close to you
Everybody gets up - excited by love
This side of the ring - this side of the blood

I can't sleep without you

The referee's in black and he's in shock
The judge keeps hammerin' for some solid proof
My heart's beating like a clock
I can't sleep without you

It's like a timebomb - ready to go off
In my head and in my heart
The lights keep fadin' in the dark
Just like a nightmare that's comin' true

I can't sleep without you

I'm crazy in the city - it's just ain't fair
You send me to my corner and you're never there

I can't sleep without you

One Shot Away From Paradise

I wanna talk to you
Please let me talk to you
But you don't let me in
I wanna hold you but I don't know where to begin

One shot away from paradise
I'll be there to open your eyes

You're hidin' - hidin' in your head
Layin' on your bed
You're zoming away, got nothing to say
You're hidin' - you lock yourself away
Day after day
But don't you know I'm with you
It's hard to be with you

-Lemme tell ya-
One shot away from paradise
I'll be there to open your eyes

You're smillin' - baby you're smilin'
That's when I know you're coming home
That's when I feel I'm not alone
No no

You're crying - sometimes you're crying
That's when I know we're still alive
That's when I feel we will survive
Cause baby don't you know that

One shot away from paradise
I'll be there to open your eyes
You'll know one shot away from paradise
I'll be there when you open your eyes
We're just one shot away from paradise
I'll be waiting with my arms open wide
One shot away from paradise
I'll be there to open your eyes

Pouring My Heart Out Again

Another hour past midnight
Moonshine through the skylight
The bottle's empty and my mind is full
Of your ghost that keeps hauntin' this room

And I could spend all my life
Just sittin' here paralised
And I could spend all my life
Waitin' for you to materialise

Love was the only thing
I always felt for you
Bigger than anything
Baby I die for you

Hold me cause I think I'm falling
Like rain on a Monday morning
And when it rains I'm pourin'
my heart out again

I can't remember I can't forget
I can't see 'cause my eyes are wet
The bottle's empty and it says: you fool
How many tears do I spill for you?

And I could spend all my life
Just sittin' here paralised
And I could spend all my life
Like a thorn of glass in your eye

Love was the only thing
I always felt for you
Bigger than anything
Baby I die for you

Hold me cause I think I'm falling
Like rain on a Monday morning
And when it rains I'm pourin'
my heart out again

The Naked Truth

Used to be a young gun
Out on the hard streets
Getting high on crystal
Drinking scotch and smoking weed
Daddy's wish used to be nothing less than my command
Took a switch to my back nailed me to a cross both hands
Mama couldn't give me
The thing a young boy needs
Instead of mama suffering
She was smart enough to leave
Spend my life fighting trying to stay free
From trials and tribulations and the state penitentiary
Hustled pool really looking cool
Just making both ends meet
Untill that day I saw you walking
Down Blue Angel street
The sweetest lies are lily white coming from your lips
You brush away all my pain with a lazy finger tip hm
It moves my heart just watching
The way you walk so smooth
You save me from an evil fate
You steal away my blues
Lyin' here in your arms
I don't need more proof
Lyin' here safe and warm
It's just the naked truth
This man loves you
This man loves you
This man loves you
This man loves you
That's the naked truth
It's the naked truth
Going down that graveyard spiral
There was nothing I could do
Life treatin' me much harder
Than a mean old corkscrew
Lyin' here in your arms
I don't need more proof
Lyin' here safe and warm
It's just the naked truth
This man loves you
This man loves you
This man loves you
This man loves you
It's the
It's the naked truth
It's the naked truth

Bloody Buccaneers

Hey-la hey-la hey-lo
Hey-la hey-la hey-lo

I scratch the morning with a diamond
Bucked the storm like a whore last night
I'm going after that Spanish gallion
Skull, bones and dangerous

I got a tattoo big, always saved my life
A burnin' heart with a stabbin' knife
We swear by the bread and the wine
More serious than any divine

Hey-la hey-la hey-lo
Mexican silver, shining gold
Hey-la hey-la hey-lo
Jewels, pearls and rhum in the hold

I'm the alligator-law chewin' on your bait
Ransackin' loodin' you from stern to gate
Last night I saw you against the moon
My beautifull princess white as snow
Nothing wrong about leaning on a shoulder
When you're outta breath

Ho ho let me escort you
And take you to my cabin down below

Ah, you bring the devil out in me
Ah you make me sinn baby sinn baby
Ah, you bring the devil out in me
Again and again

Oh yeah bloody Buccaneer

The crew's plottin sharp for the prize
So I lock the door and leave a note outside
Any man break into this room
Better prepare for death and doom

I had my cutlass on her neck
Warm and white I told her
I'm a pirat from the Skeleton Isles
And I never forget the sweet things she said

Ah, you bring the devil out in me
Ah you make me sinn baby sinn baby
Ah, you bring the devil out in me
Again and again

Oh yeah bloody Buccaneer
Mexican silver, Peruvian gold

Going to the Run

I could bet on New Years-eve
He'd call me up at night
From the other side of the world
Ed was always there allright

Ed's got the looks of a moviestar
Ed's got the smile of a prince
He ride a bike instead of a car
I wanna be his friend

Dancin' in the livingroom with the ladies so nice
Like a child with the wisdomtooth, he's just a friend of mine
Ed's got the rings and the colours
Ed's got the wind in his hair
He goes riding with the brothers
He's got a fist in the air

Going to the run, run angel
Going to the run, run angel
And heaven and hell came together that night
Only for you this time
Going to the run, forever angel

One sommer at the festival
Holdin' on real tight
On the back of a Harley
He took me for a ride in the sky

Ed's got the looks of a moviestar
Ed's got the smile of a prince
He ride a bike instead of a car
I wanna be his friend

Going to the run, run angel
Going to the run, run angel
And his wings started to shine so bright
Like a fire into the night
Going to the run, forever angel
Going to the run, run angel
Forever going to the run, run angel
And heaven and hell came together that night
Only for you this time
Going to the run, run angel
Going to the run, forever angel

In A Bad Mood

I believe I'm in a bad mood, girl
And I hope it won't last too long
Last time I had a bad mood, girl
Everything turned out wrong

I'm living in a bad mood world
The heart's bleeding don't it makes you cry
Are you list'ning to the sad news, girl
It's about another mixed-up messed-up guy

He must be goin' through a bad dream, girl
He's sleepin' with his eyes open wide
He's sleepin' in a bad mood world
He's livin' and he don't know why

Sometimes I don't know what to do
I just whish I could fly, yeah

I can't give it up untill I had enough
I wanna see the truth in your eyes
Sometimes I'm tired of livin'
I can't give it up before I live it up
Fall in love for the rest of my life
Sometimes I'm tired of livin'
Sure as hell ain't ready to die

You give my heart such a hard time inside
Feelin' like a passenger on a roller-coaster ride
Through the cold, cold moonlight
Just show me where the good time's rolling
Lemme eat a slice of that pie
Show me where they go out moon-beaming
And I shoot 'em all from the sky

Sometimes I don't know what to do
I just whish I could fly, yeah

I can't give it up untill I had enough
I wanna see the truth in your eyes
Sometimes I'm tired of livin'
I can't give it up before I live it up
Fall in love for the rest of my life
Sometimes I'm tired of livin'
Sure as hell ain't ready to die

I can't give it up, don't want to give it up
I can't give it up, I don't want to give it up

I can't give it up untill I had enough
I wanna see the truth in your eyes
Sometimes I'm tired of livin'
I can't give it up before I live it up
Fall in love for the rest of my life
Sometimes I'm tired of livin'

Joe

Wake up in the morning
Glad to be alive
My head's on fire and I'm shaking
All I want is a little peace and quiet
Stop me from going crazy-yeah
Stumble to the kitchen
Flashin' back on last night
Gotta get to work
I'll never make it

I was hungry for action
I saw her standing there
Looking like a bomb in a basement

Magic in my hands

Give it all you got, give it all you got
And Joe you better stop all you're thinkin'
Stop dying to get home alive
I get home alive

Making Love to Yourself

Well I could be six feet under
I could be stone dead cold
Hangin' from the highest tree
Would you read my suicide-note?

I'm hungry for affection
Howlin' at the moon
Can't you get it inside your head
That all I want is you

All you're thinkin' of is making love to yourself
And I wonder if there's any room for somebody else
Come on, come on
Don't make me wait too long
Sometimes you know
I hate being on my own
Try to give it one more chance
Cause I wanna be a man
And when you call me up
I'll be home

Listen to this
My train roll into the station
In the middle of the night
Me and my suitcase waiting
But you're nowhere near in sight

Heartache's such a bummer
Knock-knockin' on my door
Feeling sorry for myself
I just can't take it no more

All you're thinkin' of is making love to yourself
And I wonder if there's any room for somebody else
Come on, come on
Don't make me wait too long
Sometimes you know
I hate being on my own
Try to give it one more chance
Cause I wanna be a man

Why don't you read my thoughts
Before I drown in tears
I'm thinkin' bout nothing
Nothing else but you and me

Come on, come on
Don't make me wait too long
Sometimes you know
I hate being on my own
Try to give it one more chance
Cause I wanna be a man

One Shot Away From Paradise

I wanna talk to you,
Please let me talk to you
But you don't let me in
I wanna hold you
but I don't know where to begin
One shot away from paradise
I'll be there to open your eyes
You're hidin' - hidin' in your head
Layin' on your bed
You're zoning away, got nothing to say
You're hiding, you lock yourself away
Day after day
But don't you know I'm with you
It's hard to be with you
Lemme tell ya
One shot away from paradise
I'll be there to open your eyes
You're smilin', baby you're smilin'
That's when I know you're coming home
That's when I feel I'm not alone
No no
You're crying, sometimes you're crying
That's when I know we're still alive
That's when I feel we will survive
Cause baby don't you know that
I'll be there to open your eyes
I'll be there when you open your eyes
We're just one shot away from paradise

Planet Blue

I stand in line for a piece of meat
My pocket's always empty as usually
The gates of heaven I touched for you
There's nothing more a spaceman can do

Planet Blue is my island
Mother earth I'm coming down
Travling with the speed of light oh yeah

No one loved you as much as me
Lenin, Stalin, Marx and your KGB
I have tried to break that spell
When I threw my roubles down the wishing-well

Planet Blue is my island
Mother earth I'm coming down
Travling with the speed of light oh yeah

When I get home you touch me
And make me burn every single bridge
You're in my law of gravity
& I know you'll never let me go

I'm a space-dog gone astray
A million miles & the job don't pay
I've seen a junkyard between the stars
A lotta heavy metal & it's coming our way

Planet Blue is my island
Mother earth I'm coming down
Travling with the speed of light oh yeah

When I get home you touch me
And make me burn every single bridge
You're in my law of gravity
& I know you'll never let me go

Planet Blue is my island
Mother earth I'm coming down
Travling with the speed of light oh yeah

Pourin My Heart Out Again

Another hour past midnight
Moonshine through the skylight
The bottle's empty and my mind is full
Of your ghost that keeps hauntin' this room
And I could spend all my life
Just sittin' here paralised
And I could spend all my life
Waitin' for you to materialise
Love was the only thing
I always felt for you
Bigger than anything
Baby I die for you
Hold me cause I think I'm falling
Like rain on a monday morning
And when it rains I'm pourin'
My heart out again
I can't remember I can't forget
I can't see 'cause my eyes are wet
The bottle's empty and it says: you fool
How many tears do I spill for you?
I could spend all my life
Just sittin' here paralised
I could spend all my life
Like a thorn of glass in your eye

Temporary Madness

I just won't listen to the sound of advice
Pray for me darling all through the night

Take my soul take it away from me
Take my pride, take my dignity
Weepin' like a fool in broad daylight
And I know it just ain't right

I just won't listen to the sound of advice
Pray for me darling all through the night

Temporary madness
Emotional overload
It only takes a dime to fall: thats all
Temporary madness
Emotional overload
Even when I lose control I can hear you call
Come home!

Walkin' on home my blood's on fire
I'm feelin' like my vains are runnin' dry
Jump through the mirror is what you want me to do
Stop sellin' lies baby buy me some truth

I just won't listen to the sound of advice
Pray for me darling all through the night

Temporary madness
Emotional overload
It only takes a dime to fall: thats all
Temporary madness
Emotional overload
You caught me red-handed by the balls
My back's against the wall
Go home!

When Love Turns to Pain

She's got the touch of an angel
She's got hypnotizing eyes
No sign of badness
No evidence of lies

Sometimes it feels like I'm floating on cloud nine
Like changes in the weather
She flies on different feathers
Sometimes it feels like feels like I'm slowly dying

She's got the looks of a lady
But she's lethal like a knife
She performs to perfection
And brings you back to life
She puts magic in her power
She puts heat into your blood
But somehow I can't handle it
And wonder what to do
I can dream on forever
But I want a love that's true
But somehow she has a hold on me
With a grip so tight
And I recognize the feeling
And I know... and I know that's why
There's no remedy
When love turns to pain

And I know she's got me
And man, it hurts
But the pain is sweet
You can believe my words
And my mind goes blind
And I don't give a damn
Now you think I'm crazy
So what if I am?

Yesterday I stared into the dark horizon
Now I burned my skin to your fire
It's just the kind of light I desire
Baby I can cherish all your treasures now
Your love tells me how

She's got the looks of a lady
But she's lethal like a knife
She performs to perfection
And brings you back to life
She puts magic in her power
She puts heat into your blood
But somehow I can't handle it
And wonder what to do
I can dream on forever
But I want a love that's true
But somehow she has a hold on me
With a grip so tight
And I recognize the feeling
And I know... and I know that's why
There's no remedy
When love turns to pain

Face It

Angel

Angel, fly angel fly
Angel, angeeeellll, angeeeeeelllllllll !

The one time I didn't know what to do
I had a problem with my attitude
'cos I never had, never had
the young man blues, the blues before
Well I know it means none, none to you
Everyman's gotta walk in his own shoes
ain't that hard, it sure is hard to see
Straight from the heart

Can't find nothing on my shopping list
I only keep hammerin' the nail I miss
I just cannot help, believin', that heaven, is hard on
Well I know it don't mean a damn to you
The left hand guessin' what the right'll do
Now ain't that, ain't that,
the way it is, as a matter of fact
Straight fron the heart

and I'm floating like a swan on a waterbed
drowning in a pond, in a pool of regret
tryin' to remember not to forget
how you bring me down with your kiss of death

Angel, angel, angeeeeeel

I'm entertaining all the Gods for you
Buddah and Jezus and the other one too
Now ain't that, ain't that
like apple juice, forbidden fruit
Moon jump, flyin' back to the sun
Cool burn visible for everyone
and the blood flows, don't you know
All through your body and back to your soul
Straight from the haert

and I'm floating like a swan on a waterbed
drownin' in a pond, in a pool of regret
tryin' to remember not to forget
how you bring me down, with your kiss of death

Freedom Don't Last Forever

It don't look like a happy home
For the monkey in the corner
Behind the bars inside the cage
The sadness makes me shiver
Freedom don't last forever

It's no way never near good taste
And puts my good sense to the test
Makes me wonder who's the beast
In the eyes of the audience
Freedom don't last forever

And the way love burns
Twists and turns and tears us all apart
Let me tell you my old friend
It can also break your heart!

Can't take no more
Lock the door
Leave me with my self pity
Leave me alone
With my lazy bones
And a banana on the branch of my tree
(With a dream and a memory)

Loneliness is a ghost
Trapped in a room of silence
Inside my head I hear the roar
The roar of a crazy lion
Freedom don't last forever

Hold Me Now

Dreaming bout the future and drinkin on the past
Tinkin bout the things that been forgotten
Tryin to remember and tryin to forget
That my life is empty without you
Sayonara, close your eyes now little girl
cause tomorrow is hidin a whole different world

Hold me now, you gotta guide me through the night
Hold me now, make my ice-cold blood turn warm

Talkin bout our friends in love, our friends with broken hearts
The ones I always keep forgiving
That funny angel shot a poison pointed dart
tonight I wanna keep on living
For your love, close your eyes now little girl
cause tomorrows hidin a whole different world

Hold me now, you gotta guide me trough the night
Hold me now, make my ice-cold blood turn warm

I Can't Do Without Your Kiss

Tonight when I ride outta here
Theyre gonna curse this shotgun town
Where the whisky flows like water
and the law means nothing to anyone

I am headin for a showdown, and
when the churchbell chimes nine times
Theres a crazy gamblers final bet
Makes the local undertaker smile

You wanted me to settle down
Maybe raise a family
I remember that I said:
matrimony aint for me
The only thing that you said was:
lay down your star and your gun belt,
and let me be your sweetheart,
I dont want you to get killed

I cant do without your kiss, I cant do without your kiss
Theres no doin without your kiss

A fearless outlaw always lies
sweatin in his bed
While the guns are always loaded
Under a pillow, under his head
And when the rooster calls one moment
at the final crack of dawn
Like the whistle from a long gone train
While the folks are gatherin around

I cant do without your kiss, I cant do without your kiss
Theres no doin without your kiss

and in the cathouse, when we made it
You said: Im always yours for free
After a day and night together
How in hell could I have disagreed???

I cant do without your kiss, I cant do.............

Johnny Make Believe

Waitress, more wine
We celebrate, the life and times of Johnny Make Believe
He was the greatest liar, of all mankind
The biggest drunk, you ever saw alive
He was a devil, undisguised
He will be sorely missed tonight

And the next day, will never be the same
Without the beautyful Johnny Make Believe

So lets get high, laugh till we cry
always remember, his last words:
"Farewell cruel world, all you pretty girls,
dont send me flowers, hold me in your dreams
and then the spirit in the bottle
took our Johnny for a ride
Come on waitress, pour us more wine
to drown our grief, for Johnny Make Believe

He tattooed my heart, branded my soul
He said: Go for true love, not for fools gold

Legalize Telepathy

You cook my brain in your favorite pot
You fry my eggs till theyre sizzlin hot
You like to give it everythin you got
and everythins for free, everythin for free

Make all the girls at the beauty parlor
Jump up and down and scream and holler
Just like a lapdog on a leash with a collar

Thats what youre makin me, thats what you make outta me
I aint no professor, I aint got no degree
but I sure as hell know how to read
the little notes you keep sendin
The bottom line always gets to me
What do you mean?
Legalize, legalize, legalize telepathy
Legalize, legalize, legalize telepathy

You always go whre I wanna be goin
You always know what I wanna be knowin
You always do what I wanna be doin
now aint that telepathy, with a capital E.S.P..?

Liquid Soul

Went down to the liquor store -
Had enough - but I needed more
Give me a six pack,
I got money - I got cash -
Take my life
Break the seal
Take my knife
Cut the waitin - say the word
No hesitatin - cant you see that Im hungry!

I been a dirty liar, a cold-hearted diplomat
And now I keep on tryin
Tryin hard to forget
I used to be a coward,
No Clark Gable
No stick of dynamite
No funky fire sign
This rivers runnin dry
Youll never capture
Its liquid soul!

Daylight Im angry
Lonely, but I found
Somethin solid gold
On this endless road
I like the glow
When the fire turns to coal
And I see your mystery
Send me on my way
Sometimes I wander
Sometimes I leave for good
Livin up my fantasy
Livin in a world like you
She ask me do you love me
I answer I dont know
She ask me do you love me
Yes I love you girl!
Givin up my freedom
Givin up my fantasy
Im givin up!!
Go go

Sometimes prisoner
Sometimes I feel free
Im livin up - livin up
Livin up my fantasy
Already know the answer
Information plain to see
Through the muddy water
No sticks of dynamite
No need for sacrifice
This river aint runnin dry
Youll never capture
Its liquid soul!!

Maximum Make Up

She never leaves the house
Without a royal blush
She slaps on the pancake
And it's never too much
Old - Blue Eyes on the hi-fi
Now ain't that a scream
Max - make-up for the
Beauty queen
She's got an affair with a
King size mirror
The lighting's just right
Your perfect deceiver
Cosmetics on standy fakin'
A dream - max make-up
For the B- queen.

Black stockings and pink cigarettes
Lips high-gloss-pigeon-blood red
10 inch lashes and the finishing touch
A string of pearls
And a Mickey Mouse watch!

My - my - maximum make-up
Turns me on and makes me hot
My - my - maximum make-up
Don't you ever take it off?!

At the end of the day -
When the face runs down
Finally gets tired of ...
Lookin' like a clown
Mascara smears -
Time for cold cream
Max - make-up for the B- Queen!

My - my - maximum make-up
Turns me on and makes me hot
My - my - maximum make-up
Don't you ever take it off?!

Minute By Minute

The first time I laid my eyes on you
You happened to glance the other way
But by the look of your lazy smile
I knew I had a chance some way
I knew there would be - a role for me
To play in a wild wild fantasy

Now I'm takin' it day by day
Cause you got my head spinnin' round
Minute by minute
I'm countin' the seconds down
Until the time comes
For me to hold you in my arms
Minute by minute - until we become one

Here's a man with a hole in his heart
Dyin' to get it fixed
And complications from the start
Make it an operation of high risk
I need an operation - doctor, doctor
But don't cut out my wild - wild - fantasy -

Now I'm takin' it day by day
Cause you got my head spinnin' round
Minute by minute
I'm countin' the seconds down
Until the time comes
For me to hold you in my arms
Minute by minute - until we become one

Spaceship

I remember it happened
Late one night
No moon - no stars
No sound - no light
I was young and scared
And afraid of the dark
When I saw that space ship
Shaped like a heart

The years went by
Just like a shot
I was way too busy
Growing up - I was datin' girls
So I forgot -
All about that space ship
Shaped like a heart

Well I woke up one morning
Feelin' fed up and lost
Runnin' out of luck
Desperate for love
And there she was
I kid you not -
That space ship shaped like a heart
Blindin' my eyes
Cloudin' my sight
Givin' me hope it would be all right

Space ship shaped like a heart
I saw it in your eyes
And in the way you smile
Right from the start
Space ship shaped like a heart
Don't wanna ask me why
Don't wanna say goodbye
To that heart in the sky

I was standin' by the window
We just made love
I was comin' down
>From the push and shove
And lookin' up -
I saw a spark
It was a space ship
Shaped like a heart

The Unforgettable Dream

Cmon baby write me a letter
Shut out the night
Write me a song - this wheel of fortune
We spin together - am I right, am I wrong?
Im tired - tired of believin
You dont care - you dont care ...
Come on woman - come on girl
Maybe its time to weave your spell

And I know - the unforgettable dreamline
You say it better than you know
I know the unforgettable dreamtime
You blew me feathers on the dance floor

You look amazin in the night
Sure makes me horny
The way we whisper lies in the storm
Im nothin but a beggar for your love

I couldnt care less - you couldnt care less
Were gettin careless about the time -
Lets go crazy in the night
Sure makes me horny
Lets go chase another rainbow
Cause were runnin out of time -
This night is unforgettable
The unforgettable dream
Lets go chase another rainbow -
Before we forget ....

Love Sweat

Ballad of a Thin Man

Bob Dylan

You walk into the room
With your pencil in your hand
You see somebody naked
And you say, "Who is that man?"
You try so hard
But you don't understand
Just what you'll say
When you get home

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

You raise up your head
And you ask, "Is this where it is?"
And somebody points to you and says
"It's his"
And you say, "What's mine?"
And somebody else says, "Where what is?"
And you say, "Oh my God
Am I here all alone?"

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

You hand in your ticket
And you go watch the geek
Who immediately walks up to you
When he hears you speak
And says, "How does it feel
To be such a freak?"
And you say, "Impossible"
As he hands you a bone

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

You have many contacts
Among the lumberjacks
To get you facts
When someone attacks your imagination
But nobody has any respect
Anyway they already expect you
To just give a check
To tax-deductible charity organizations

You've been with the professors
And they've all liked your looks
With great lawyers you have
Discussed lepers and crooks
You've been through all of
F. Scott Fitzgerald's books
You're very well read
It's well known

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Well, the sword swallower, he comes up to you
And then he kneels
He crosses himself
And then he clicks his high heels
And without further notice
He asks you how it feels
And he says, "Here is your throat back
Thanks for the loan"

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Now you see this one-eyed midget
Shouting the word "NOW"
And you say, "For what reason?"
And he says, "How?"
And you say, "What does this mean?"
And he screams back, "You're a cow
Give me some milk
Or else go home"

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Well, you walk into the room
Like a camel and then you frown
You put your eyes in your pocket
And your nose on the ground
There ought to be a law
Against you comin' around
You should be made
To wear earphones

Because something is happening here
But you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Collage

Joe Walsh, P. Cullie

Blue for the blue - I feel when I'm feelin' down
On the ground - feelin' down that could be most anyday
Green for the eyes - take a look around
When the sun goes down - and the sun goes down
In the strangest way -
Red for the light - gotta stop this thing
Find a song to sing that is everything
That I meant to say - meant to say -

Pray for the mice that are blind like the world
Never see the good that is done to the bad
It's too late to see
Two of us make it easier, to read the signs
Memorize the lines - you play with me
One for the road - I'll be on my way
Come another day - when the things we say
Find a way to be - way to be -

Autumn calls for a change of year
Bringin' winter near us - greens are brown
And disquise a sign -
Wintertime is a razorblade - that the devil made
It's a price we pay for the summertime
Springdays come it's hard to know
Where the rain comes from - where the children go -
It's a nursery rhyme - nursery rhyme

Darkness, Darkness

Jesse Colin Young

Darkness, Darkness, be my pillow
Take my head and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep
Darkness, darkness, hide my yearning
For the thing I cannot see
Keep my mind from constant turning
Towards the things I cannot be now
Ah yes the thing I cannot see

Darkness, darkness, long and lonesome
Is the day that brings me here
I have felt the edge of sadness
I have known the depth of fear
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with the endless night
Take away the pain of knowing
Fill the emptiness of fright now
Ah yes the emptiness of fright

Gotta See Jane

D. Taylor, R. Miller

Red light - green light speedin' through the dark night
Drivin' through the poundin' rain - I just gotta see Jane
Windshield - wiper splashin' - splashin'
Callin' out her name - Just gotta see Jane
I left her arms to find my way
To find a place for me in the world outside
The frantic pace - the constant chase
To win the race - turned my heart cold inside
I gotta find what I left behind!

Freeway - by way - tearin' up the highway
Runnin' up a world insane - Just gotta see Jane
A town of steel that isn't real - it could not feel
What's in the heart of me -
I was so alone in a world of stone
I missed her arms - that once held me
That made me see - I was the lonely one
But now & then I was runnin' scared
& I could feel the touch of time
Turn in' the wheel of life to yesterday
When love & happiness were mine
I gotta find that world of Jane & me
Like it used to be -

Jane
Her love for me I pushed aside - walked out alone
To face a world turned cold
although I tried I could not survive
The frantic pace - the constant chase
To win the race - it's not a part of me
I've gotta find what I left behind
Oh - I gotta see Jane

I'll Be Back Again

J.Lennon, P. McCartney

You know - if you break my heart I'll go -
But I'll be back again
Cause I told you once before goodbye
But I came back again

I love you so - I'm the one who wants you
Oh - oh - oh

Oh you could find better things to do
Than to break my heart again
This time I will try to show that I'm
Not trying to pretend

I thought that you would realize
That if I ran away from you
That you would want me to
But I got a big surprise oh - oh - oh
Oh - you could find better things to do
Than to break my heart again

I wanna go - But I hate to leave you
You know I hate to leave you - oh - oh - oh
Oh - you - if you break my heart I'll go
But I'll be back again

Motorbikin

Chris Spedding

Motorbikin' motorbikin' motorbikin' motorcycling
Movin' on the queens' highway lookin' like a streak of
lightnin'
Too fast to live - too young to die
I bought a new machine & they say
It takes your breath away!

Motorbikin' motorbikin' motorbikin' motorcycling
Movin' on the queens' highway lookin' like a streak of
lightnin'
Baby won't you come with me

Here I am again, I'm dressed in black
I got my baby she's ridin' up back
We're doin' about ninety - five
Oh: it's so good to be alive

Motorbikin' motorbikin' motorbikin' motorcyclin'

Move Over

Janis Joplin

You say that it's over baby, Lord,
You say that it's over now,
But still you hang around me, come on,
Won't you move over.

You know that I need a man, honey Lord,
You know that I need a man,
But when I ask you to you just tell me
That maybe you can.

Please dontcha do it to me babe, no!
Please dontcha do it to me baby,
Either take this love I offer
Or honey let me be.

I ain't quite a ready for walking, no no no no,
I ain't quite a ready for walking,
And whatcha gonna do with your life,
Life all just dangling ?

Oh yeah, make up your mind, honey,
You're playing with me, hey hey hey,
Make up your mind, darling,
You're playing with me, come on now!
Now either be my loving man,
I said-a let me honey, let me be, yeah!

You say that it's over, baby, no,
You say that it's over now,
But still you hang around me, come on
Won't you move over.

You know that I need a man, honey, I told you so.
You know that I need a man,
But when I ask you to you just tell me
That maybe you can.

Hey! Please dontcha do it to me, babe, no!
Please dontcha do it to me baby,
Either take this love I offer,
Honey let me be.

I said won't you, won't you let me be ?
Honey, you're teasing me.
Yeah, you're playing with my heart, dear,
I believe you're toying with my affections, honey.

I can't take it no more baby,
And furthermore, I don't intend to.
I'm just tired of hanging from the end of a string, honey,
You expect me to fight like a goddamned mule.
Wah, wah, wah, wah, honey...

My Little Red Book

David, Bacharach

I just got out my little red book
The minute that you said goodbye
I thumbed right through my little red book
I wasn't gonna sit & cry
And I went from A to Zee
I took out every pretty girl in town
They danced with me & as I held them

All I did was talk about you
Hear your name & I start to cry
There's just no getting over you - oh - no!

Well there ain't no girl in my little red book
Who can ever replace your charms
And each girl in my little red book
Knows you're the one I'm thinkin' of
Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
Where can love be
I need ya so much

Sail on Sailor

Almer, Kennedy, Parks

I sailed an ocean - unsettled ocean
Through restful waters and deep commotion
Often frightenend - unenlightened
Sail on sail on sailor

I wrest the waters - fight Neptunes waters
Sail through the sorrows - of life's marauders
Unrepeting - often empty
Sail on sail on sailor

Caught like a sewer rat - alone but I sail
Bought like a crust of bread
Oh - do I wail
Seldom stumble - never crumble
Try to tumble - life's a rumble
Feel the stinging - I've been given
Never ending - unrelenting
Heartbreak searing - always fearing
Never clearing - persevering
Sail on sail on sailor

I work the sea - ways
The gale swept seaways
Past shipwrecked daughters of wicked waters
Uninspired - drenched and tired
Sail on sailor -

Always needing - even bleeding
Never feeding - all my feelings -
Damn the thunder - must I blunder there's no
Wonder - all I'm under stop the crying and
the lying and the sighing and my dying
Sail on sail on sailor

This Wheel's On Fire

Bob Dylan, Rick Danko

If your mem'ry serves you well,
We were goin' to meet again and wait,
So I'm goin' to unpack all my things
And sit before it gets too late.
No man alive will come to you
With other tale to tell,
But you know that we shall meet again
If your mem'ry serves you well.
This wheel's on fire - Rolling down the road,
Best notify my next of kin - This wheel shall explode!

If your mem'ry serves you well,
I was goin' to confiscate your lace,
And wrap it up in a sailor's knot
And hide it in your case.
If I knew for sure that it was yours...
But it was oh so hard to tell.
But you knew that we would meet again
If your mem'ry serves you well.
This wheel's on fire - Rolling down the road,
Best notify my next of kin, - This wheel shall explode!

If your mem'ry serves you well,
You'll remember you're the one
That called on me to call on them
To get you your favors done.
And after ev'ry plan had failed
And there was nothing more to tell
You knew that we would meet again,
If your mem'ry serves you well.
This wheel's on fire, - Rolling down the road,
Best notify my next of kin, - This wheel shall explode!

Bob Seger

On a long and lonesome highway
east of Omaha
You can listen to the engine
moanin' out his one note song
You can think about the woman
or the girl you knew the night before
But your thoughts will soon be wandering
the way they always do
When you're ridin' sixteen hours
and there's nothin' much to do
And you don't feel much like ridin',
you just wish the trip was through

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go

Well you walk into a restaurant,
strung out from the road
And you feel the eyes upon you
as you're shakin' off the cold
You pretend it doesn't bother you

but you just want to explode
Most times you can't hear 'em talk,
other times you can
All the same old cliches,
"Is that a woman or a man?"
And you always seem outnumbered,
you don't dare make a stand

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page

Out there in the spotlight
you're a million miles away
Every ounce of energy
you try to give away
As the sweat pours out your body
like the music that you play
Later in the evening
as you lie awake in bed
With the echoes from the amplifiers
ringin' in your head
You smoke the day's last cigarette,
rememberin' what she said

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
Turn the page

Here I am
On the road again
There I am
Up on the stage
Here I go
Playin' star again
There I go
There I go

When I Was Young

E. Burdon, J. Weider, V. Briggs, D.J. McCulloch, B. A. Jenkins

The rooms were so much colder then
My father was a soldier then
And times were very hard
When I was young

I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for the girls I had a bad yen
& I had quite a ball - when I was young

When I was young it was more important
They'd more fun and they laughed much louder
Yeah! when I was young

I met my first love at thirteen
She was brown & I was pretty green
And I loved quite a lot
When I was young

My faith was so much stronger then
I believed in fellow man
& I was so much older then
When I was young.

Who Do You Love

Ellas Macdaniel

I walk 47 miles of barbed - wire
Wear a cobra snake for a neck - tie
Got a brand new house built on a hill
Made out - a - rattle snake hide
It's got a great big chimney way up on top
Made out of human skulls
So come on over here - cute little thing
And tell Barry - now - who do you love

A voodoo man - he took me by the hand
He said - wooo baby I can understand
Crushed a bone on a ju - ju
Stone rolled his eyes, and he cast a spell
Tell me who do you love - tell me yeah!!

The light was black and the night was blue
And down the alley I crept on through
A shot of a pistol - somebody screamed
You shoulda heard lust what I seen
Tell me who do you love!!

I gotta tombstone head & a grave yard mind
I'm just twenty two & I ain't stole a dime
Got the eyes of a wolf - and a gator smile
I lived long enough - and I don't mind dyin'
Who do you love??

Yeah!!

Naked II

Burning Stuntman

Specialize in danger Im from Niagara Falls
And now I sit here waitin
Like an idiot for your call

Words cannot explain
That rattlesnake in my bones
Guess its time to face the truth
I stand here licked by love
And in the name of love

I wanna go go go, like a burning stuntman

I fry exposed to fire of course
Choke up while Im breathin smoke
Come on quench the fire inside my soul
I wanna go go go

A slumbering volcano
About to explode
Puttin on a smile and then youre takin of your clothes

Words cannot explain
My hearts red pepper blue
And my blood goes boilin every time I thing of you
Im in danger how bout you

I wanna go go go, like a burning stuntman

You fry exposed to fire of course
Like a flame whisperin to a moth
Come on quench the fire inside my heart
I wanna go go go

Mood Indigo

A taste of breath
A kiss sweeter than honey
Your eyes a misty dream
A million miles away
And in my ear
You whisper my name
Just like in some old news flash
From light-years ago

Van Dykes on the slide trombone
Through the smoke of the party room
Your teeth like the Ivory Coast
Start singin my favorite song
And it happen to be mood indigo

Mood indigo. I just go weak
When I hear Mood indigo
Could last for weeks
Until I decide to wake up
Before I break up

Holdin on to my heart
Smokin them downhills
In a room number thirteen
Tryin to stretch my luck again
Down the corridor
Your footsteps echo against the wall
My date with mystery
My girl from Sin City
Tonight Im gonna sacrifice
For the first time in my life
Make it all come back to me
Like an old forgotten dream

Where Will I Be

Where will I be
When the sun wont shine anymore
Where will I be
When the moon wont smile anymore
Where will I be

Maybe theres a place to hide from the frost
A place where life can get lost
Until then the end is near
And the skies will never be clear

Where will I be
When the sun aint shining
Where will I be
When the moon aint smiling
Where will I be

Where will I be
When the children stop crying
Where will I be
When the sun comes near flying
Faster than a bird
Is this again the birth of the earth
No place to hide from the warmth
Where the rays can do no harm

Where will I be
When the sun is burning
Where will I be
When man is yearning for deliverance
Where will I be

Paradise in Distress

Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new
Penthouse in heaven
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the good old neighbourhood
On a one way trip to hell!
(Shake you sinner!)
Jesus won't drive nothin'
But a shiny white Mercedes
And all the angels gotta settle
For second hand Oldsmobiles
The virgin Mary loses faith
And starts a chain-reaction
The Lord just stands there weepin'
Bitter tears in the rain
Ain't that a shame
(Shake you sinner!)
Almost as if the bad guys
Got the good guys on the run
All in the line of expectation
In the eyes of the evil one
Like a mad bull chargin'
Through a closet
Of porcelain 'Made in China'
Saddlin' up the righteous
With nightmares full of trauma!
Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new
Penthouse in heaven
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the good old neighbourhood
Movin' on down to hell
There's no one here
There's nothin' left
No one here to kiss or bless
This damp and dark unholy mess
You could say: Paradise in distress!
(Shake you sinner)
Behind the clouds
There's a silver line
The sun just can't stop waitin'
To put a shine on a clear blue sky
And kill the pessimist in me
Meanwhile.

Apocalypse

I've been faster
Than my own shadow
I've been colder
Than a icepick you know
What really matters
Is a heart of gold
And a whole lotta money
And a fat checkbook
Been a gambler
Had nothing better to do
Been crazy for fools like you
What really matters is
Make a dream come true
I ain't playing with fire no more
Ain't gonna play with fire no more
Well I was walking down the street
In my Italian shoes
I was minding my own business
Just goin' with the flow
I could feel the hot sunshine
On my back
I started singin'
To the rythm of the city noise
Yeah yeah yeah
Well I was knockin'
Opportunity right on its head
In my silver coloured suit
And my Panama hat
Yeah, I had nothin' to fear,
I had places to go
And I swear I felt lightnin'
In my bones
I said yeah
Down, down, down the Apocalypse
Down, down, down with negative
Down, down my dice come a-rollin'
Down, down with a double-six evidence
Down deep the sound
Of my heart I believe
Tells me life's there for lovin' it!
Oh, oh yeah (through the air)
Well I'm tapdancin'
Floatin' on thin air
High on nothin'
'Xcept sweet adrenalin
And I see somethin' behind a tree
It's the mother of God
Got her eyes on me
She says yeah

Evil Love Chain

She took my money
She stole my car
Broke my heart
And smashed my guitar
She slandered my name
And laughed in my face
And on Saturday night
She went and trashed the whole place
She's drivin' me crazy
Beyond insane
She plays with my mind
As if it's a game
And most of all stranger than strange
I come beggin'
For more again and again
I can't break away
From the circle of pain
I can't break away
This evil love-chain
She's mean when she's happy
Cruel when she's sad
She finds something good
And she turns it to bad
She's young and goodlooking
And shakes the whole bed
While black magic voodoo
Lives inside her head
The girl is a menace
A danger, a threat
Can't get no worse
She's as bas as it gets
She looks like a princess
But I know instead
She's Dracula's daughter
And the angel of death

Darling

Would you recognize me
Or identify me
Try to hypnotize me
With a blindfold on
Like an animal
Like a demon
Like a criminal
Hidin' from the light
Oh my darling
Oh my darling
Just like the riptide
Escape my desire
Hear me callin'
See me crawlin'
Like a reptile in the midnight
Hungry butterfly
Cruel vampire
In the shadow
Out of sight
Sometimes all my dreams
Turn into nightmares
I need you more and more and more
Scared of dying
Bored with life
Your illusions sacrificed
Walk in silence
Through the night
Fade into the lost moonlight

Take My Hand, Close My Eyes

Why am I tonight - feelin' so low
My poor head is spinnin'
Round and round and round
Could it be that
By a total lack of love
In fact I'm busy - dyin'
Tell me where or when
Tell me now I'll go
Am I invited to your dreams
I'd like to know
Why I tremble and talk in my sleep
Maybe only time
Will take away the pain
Take my hand
Close my eyes
Lead me back into your paradise
I ain't wakin' up
I'm too tired you know
Like a drifter
By the side of a dusty road
What if you found me
In the middle of the night
Would it matter
I'm down and out allright
I'm braindead
I'm invisible
I am drownin'
In a river called 'Vertigo'
And the moonlight
Such a sad sight
Now that love
Ain't comin' 'round no more!

The Fighter

He was young when I first saw
him
(maybe) 19 or so
And I knew he would go places
Hed never dreamt hed go
There was a certain something
Impossible to hide
Dynamite in both his hands
It swept em all aside

So they nicknamed hem the killer
And he lived up to the name
The guys that tried to fight him
Never came out quite the same
And man, the crowd just loved him
In those up and coming days
Carried him on their shoulders
While they showered him with
praise

Well, they loved him like a brother
Cause he gave em all the thrills
Carin shit about no sef-defense
Only going for the kill
He took a beating now and then
But stood there young and tough
Never thought of backin up
When the going got too rough

He came down like a shockwave
The title easily won
He just tore in there man, punching
Taking two and landing one
But that avalanche of punches
Eventually took its toll
Like a constant drip of water
Wears down the hardest stone

And we all saw it comin
The inevitable fall
The night he lost his title
And the title wasnt all
He just started slippin
Down skids slicker than grease
His drawing power faded
And the hero-worship ceased

But he couldnt stop the fighting
Custom-made for the trade
While he blew away the money
On friends succes had made
I saw him fight again last night
I wish I had been spared
The sight of that poor old wreck
For whom nobody no longer cared

His eyes had lost their sparkle
His legs hado lost their spring
And it really was pathetic
The way he stumbled through the ring
While an upstart punched him dizzy
Punched him silly bell to bell
The lust mad hungry wolfpack
Rode him to a far-ye-well

Heres the same punks
Who once worshipped
His shrine when he was king
Callin him a coward
And he was groping round the ring
But he didnt seem to notice
I thought hell fight until hes dead
Hell stay in there and take it
And keep the wolf-pack fed

He gave em his youth and all his power
Now they were tearin him apart
My eyes grew dim and misty with tears
For that brave and gallant heart
Man if only I could have my way
Id know exactly what to do
Id pitch em right in there with him
One by one and two by two

Id see him bash their empty heads
Egg-like broken shells
Id jump up on my chair and yell
For blood while down they fell
Id see em beg for mercy
Groaning in the night
Whats wrong, you guys cant you take it?
Come on you scum and fight!

One Night Without You

I dont care where youve been
(last night, last night)
I dont care, but I hate to lose control
(uptight uptight)
I get emotional, bein here
Just on my own
They say alcohol and cigarettes
Are worth dyin for
Your gamble is a bet
I just cant afford
One night one night without you
Im dyin, but Im wide awake
(getting angry)
Youre a sinner
And you aint no saint for sure
(sounds like shes hardcore)
Cant live without your live
(hes innocent shes a whore)
Bein just on my own
Waitin for someone like you

Whisper in a Crowd

You cant play with feelings
The way you sometimes do
Hide your true intentions
Behind those eyes so blue
Always pretendin
Youre nobodys fool
Now until forever
The world was made for you
You cheat you lie
You hurt my pride
You fake desire
Upset my life
You fly solo
Make up your own rule
You break your word
As if I dont know
Whisper in a crowd, in a crowd
Just like a silent scream
Ah
No one will hear
Your cry of fear
Made your seven wishes
None of them came true
Like your expectations
You gotta face the truth

Deja Voodoo

In broad daylight
Your clean cut town
Has turned into a hunting ground
And Mama dont need no crystal ball
To see the weight
Thats coming down
25 hours a day
25 hours a day
In the heart of night
It howls for more
The beast that prowls
The killing floor
And Mama dont need to read the cards
To thell you times are gettin hard
25 hours a day
25 hours a day
Youve seen it before
Its been done to you
In another life, it spell taboo
Mama calls it
Mama calls it: Deja voodoo
When sweet turns to bitter
And not before
When wolves come scratchin
At your door
Thats when mamas tea cup prophecy
Will tell you how its gonna be
25 hours a day
25 hours a day
Tomorrow rips up your yesterday
While it stars in your old passion play
And mama can hear the spirits song
Singing in her head all night long
25 hours a day
25 hours a day

Bad News to Fall in Love

Dont try to put the blame on me
Every night I come stealin home
You keep thinkin Ive been drinkin
I been missin you no - no
Damn sherrif aint no friend of mine
Hand-cuffin my good times
Got no pity show no mercy
Sure makes me think of you
Hes so uptight
Downtown cant get enough
Of the way I pay for love
Cause Im ready I got plenty
Whos complainin when theres more than enough!
A deck of cards and a pair of dice
Make me feel twice as nice
The wheels spinnin and Im winnin
Til I walk through the door
Like I said before:
Its bad news to fall in love (3x)
With a mean motherfucker
Half dead til the afternoon
Wake up feelin cruel
You dont get it I just said it
Pour the booze and fetch my silver spoon
Dont mind bein critical
This love things pitiful
Why dont you let it
Fade and forget it
Im bad news for a girl like you
And Im warnin you

42nd Street

Spiralling leapers, wearing Nike sneakers
Some of them laugh, some of them sing
Some of them dont do a goddamn thing
Trip-skipping drifters, grafters and lifters
Chicks with big tits, school boys with zits
Moonlight circus of earthly delights
Pimpmobile cruising the soft, velvet night
Deals going down, midnight in town
Donw in the subways, the underground tunnels
A musician is playing, a drunk stumbles and mumbles
Out in the park its scary with frights
Somebody shot out all the streetlights
Hookers and bookies, floozies and boozers
All kinds of misfits, perverts and losers
Out of the limo that looks like a boat
The pimp steps out in a mink fur coat
Sporting a fedora, that creates its own aura
A ruby-tooth grin and a diamond stick pin
A deals going down this side of town
People walk on fleet feet
On the way down 42nd Street
Except for the bums, down for the count
That ones dead but no ones found out
And look at the bitch, with her dress up her ass!
When she moves that thing, she must move it fast
Cop with a nightstick, checking around
A neon lit junkie slides to the ground
Here comes a flasher, a jogger, a punk
Check out that guy, drunk as a skunk!
Blinking, reflection, lights melt in the rain
The sidewalks are empty, nothings the same
4 A.M. people are crashing
Where the hookers are huddled
Colored raindrops are splashing
The deals have gone down, the bimbos split town
Burned from the hustle, burned from the hype
But under the lights, Im feeling alright
On 42nd Street its just another night

Fluid Conduction

I been sleepin all day
Slummin all night
In a 44 hour sedation
Since the day you cut me outta your life
The night I killed your patience
Always try to lie to you
The truth is that I love you
Need you more than anything
Without you I discover
Im a maniac and a menace
Headin for distruction
Your lips I miss, your tears, your kiss
Your piss, your blood
The way you function
Maybe I should thank some God
For your amazing fluid condution
It was Max, the king of facts
He made me steal for your number
Promised not to tell on him
But you know me, Im a sucker

Desperately Trying to be Different

Lizzy the lizard
Met an angry young snake
With forked-tongue grace
By the name of Jake:
A yellow eyed diamond back rattler
In the chill-out room
Of the wildlife saloon
She admired his skin,
Jake said it was fake
And Liz said: who cares,
It dont really matter!
A question to raise,
Why people these days
Like slaves to the craze
Are somehow hell bent
Yet always content with fortunes spent
On desperately tryin to be different
Willy the weasel said
To Sammy the snitch
Lets go to the dogs
And bet on that bitch
The greyhound
That runs like a panther
They made a big score,
Went to the Hi-fashion store
They bought two suits of shark skin
Furs, ermine and mink
All decked out for the next chapter
Nancy the nympho
Yelled at Lola La Leech
I need a permanent wave
with lotsa bleach
I wanna look like a cheap German dancer
She could pass for a queen
In a second hand dream
Inside the gloom of the wildlife saloon
The wolfwhistles
Sounded just like laughter

Gambler's Blues

The tables smokin
I got money to burn
Get ready to spin that wheel again
I came to gamble not to dance tonight
So cut the cards and deal em nice
All or nothing roll the dice
Son of a gun theres somethin goin on
Yeah, todays my lucky day
Lady luck please come my way
I got money to burn money to burn tonight
And as the dealer calls the play
I feel the shiver comin over me
Feel it in my fingertips allright
Cards slidin faster and slicker
Than a hookers lips in the neon light
I do what I do Im a gamblin man
I gamble on life and I gamble on love
Gamble on luck from above anyway I can
Seven card stud with a full-house hand
Im a jackpot maniac, my friend
Tequila shots one more chance
For the blackjack gamblin man
The devil bets he bets on hell
And seven come eleven right
Holdin eights and aces thight
The gambler bets on heaven tonight
The devil bets he bets on hell
Goin in for the kill
Holding eights and aces tight
Its the gamblers bet tonight
On heaven tonight

The Last Blast of the Century

It's the last blast
It's the last blast of the century
The last blast
It's the last blast of the century
This is the last time
Get to hold you in my arms
This is the last time
You get to kiss this lips of mine

This is the beginning
And not the end
We're sailing together over the edge
Holding eachother's hands
This is real life
Riding the misty train
The pleasure and the pain
This is truth no make believe
Love is a friend and hate the enemy

Last blast
It's the last blast of the century
The last blast
The last blast of the century
The last blast
It's the last blast of the century
It's the last blast
It's the last blast of the century
This is the last time
Get to kiss your lipps again
This is the last time
Get to hold you in my arms

The Devil Made Us Do It

Disk 1

If You Leave Me

Baby if you leave me, I wont know what to do
So darling do believe me, oh my heart belongs to you
I know they say a lot of things
About me and what Ive done
For baby thats our love and now
my love has changed and you know how
Think what you do before you treat me cruel

Baby if you leave me

But though you still deceive me

About me and what Ive done
For baby thats our love and now

Think what you do before you treat me cruel

So please dont be so mean

Daddy Buy Me A Girl

When only a little baby, I already was rich
A wealthy mother and father, gave me all I could wish
Precious toys, things I just wanted
Crowding the park and the stably house
Girls were thinking they loved me
Affection still was for sale

The only time I adored one, thinking love was real fun
Soon it started to show, that girl just wanted my dough

Gave her rings, diamonds and mink coats
Hoping these would make her see
that I'm much more than only money
Affection wasn't for sale

Daddy buy me a girl
Please buy me a girl
You can spend all of your money
to make sure when she calls me honey
Rich or poor, all the same crazy about me

Don't Run Too Far

Baby cant you see
What youve been doing to me
I really dont understand, no no no
though you treat anyone, anyone so bad

But what I want to say
I couldnt tear myself away
From your love
Cause there is no one else
Than the lord above
But I need someone, someone
who sometimes will make me feel fine

Dont run too far
Someday youll feel sorry
Dont run too far
Theres no time to hurry
Dont be foolish
And think before its too late
And dont forget
Im not the only man you'll hate

Now I know for sure
you're tiny or you want more
It's what I always said, no no no
though you treat anyone, anyone so bad

The situation, in which I am
I have to miss you anyhow, mmm
But you dont really make me blue
Im so in love with you

Dont run too far
Someday you will feel sorry
Dont run too far
Theres no time to hurry
Dont be foolish
And think before its too late
And dont forget
Im not the only man you'll hate

Sound Of The Screaming Day

Time's fine, six o'clock and go
Now I feel alone and lucky
Get my car and drive into the fields
Where I have to work to get my money
Listen, listen oh listen
It's the sound of the screaming day
Who asks to live with you and me in any way

Sun is going up, I feel the beams on my head
The birds are whistling good morning
Near and far you can hear the sound
The sound of the working journey man
Listen, listen oh listen
It's the sound of the screaming day
Who asks to live with you and me in any way

Listen to the sound of the screaming day
Listen to the sound of the screaming day

There's a man who loves his wife
And there's a boy who uses his knife
There's a girl who milks a cow
They have to live this anyhow

Time's fine, six o'clock and go
Now I feel alone and lucky
Get my car and drive into the fields
Where I have to work to get my money
Listen, listen oh listen
It's the sound of the screaming day
Who'll ask to live with you and me in any way

Listen to the sound of the screaming day
Listen to the sound of the screaming day

There's a man who loves his wife
And there's a boy who uses his knife
There's a girl who milks a cow
They have to live this any how

La, la, la, la

Together We Live, together We Love

Where it can sing it's song of love, love
It takes along the golden key
Then you unlock the door of love
Then think of me, oh then think of me
Cause I send you this golden key

When you accept this little gift
Remember please the song of love, love
And when you're ready, then show it now
Then show it now, that you're in love, love
Then think of me, oh then think of me
Cause I send you this golden key

Together we live together we live
Together we live together we love

Holy Holy Life

In bad times when its dark and cold
You got no place to rest your soul
Theres laughter behind your backs
Then it seems the devil rules the deck

Nothin seems easy these days
Or do I see it in a different way
The world is spinnin, well thats OK
Tell me baby whats the price we pay

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Holy holy life, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is phony
The sooner or later, theyll find you dead

Why dont you take me down to a rabbit hole
Where a man of peace can hide his soul
Thinkin about pollution and a birth-control
Better talk to the rabbits, its somebody's fault

Or maybe sometimes Im pessimistic
and maybe it aint so bad, it aint so sick
I know Im not the man of constant sorrow
and tell me is it the path of evil to follow

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Holy holy life, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is phony
Or sooner or later, theyll find you dead

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad, so sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad, so so sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad
Holy, holy, holy

Stand By Me

I dont care if you need more lovin
More than I can give you everyday
I dont mind if you sleep all over town
If you only care for me, than I dont have to say
Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

I dont mind if you need more money
Go out with friends and dance all night
And give your body when youre stoned and wasted
When youre with me, I want you on my side
Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

I dont care if you drive my car
and go ridin with some rock n roll star
You wanna make love and you tell him youre free
But when were together, please stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

Instant Poetry

Washing machine, space age dream
Let me serve you, keep me clean
Rinse me plain, spin me sane
I'll trust my dirt to only you

Automobile, see me kneel
I'll scrub your back, I'll buy your meal
I'll choke your start, I'll warm your heart
I'll dream of dying just with you

See me wish from 8 to all day long
Got no time, not inclined to hum a song
Just like a robot waiting for a fuse
I'm too crazy to even have the blues

Instant, instant, instant poetry
too hot, to be continued next week
Instant, instant, instant poetry
too slow, too slow, to be tongue-in-cheek

TV syndrome, holy custom
Millions squeeze you to their bosom
You're always welcome, drive out boredom
You're one eye's all the art we need

See me wish from 8 to all day long
Got no time, not inclined to hum a song
Just like a robot waiting for a fuse
I'm too crazy to even have the blues

Instant, instant, instant poetry
too hot, to be continued next week
Instant, instant, instant poetry
too slow, too slow, to be tongue- in- cheek

Yes, We Are on Fire

Here we are, ready to run fast
And far better than anyone before
We chase the sun in the morning
We jump for gold
There are no losers in this game
Only winners participate
And you know I'm not a liar when I say

Yes we're on fire, Yes we're on fire
Yes we're on fire, Yes we're on fire

Silver, bronze and maybe gold
The blazing heat, the chilling cold
In this arena we all strive

To beat the records head up high
To break the records head up high

Yes we're on fire, Yes we're on fire
Yes we're on fire, Yes we're on fire

From javelin to boxing ring
From weightlifting to skating rink
Young and proud and passionate
Planet earth top athletes
The competition always fierce
With beating hearts and eyes so clear

To beat the records head up high
To break the records head up high

The sweat the tears, the blood we bleed
We are the living legends carving history
The flag that fills our hearts with pride
the joy that makes our spirit fly
And you know I'm not a liar when I say..

Yes we're on fire, Yes we're on fire
Yes we're on fire. Yes we're on fire
on fire, on fire, we're on fire
