Let me be your leader
Let me have control
The way I see it
It's got to be right for you
I could be your pilot
Through the stormy seas
The way you see it
It's just a case of trust in me
I could be your hero
I'll be your piece of mind
The way that I see it
It's got to be good for you
I wanna be your brother
If you need a friend
The way you see it
It's got to be right by me
Winners--losers
Takers--users
What do you see in your crystal ball for you?
Do you see an old wound fade into the blue?
I will be your lifeline
If your ship goes down
The way that I see it
You've got to have faith in me
I wanna be your partner
Through the darkest nights
The way you see it
It's always just you and me
Midnight screamers
Daytime dreamers
What do you see in your crystal ball for you?
Do you see an old wound fade into the blue?
(Charlton)
Hey, you, who are you talkin' to
Hey, boy, haven't you heard the news
No one can fight more than these boys
No one can bite more than these boys
Hey, hose, who do you want to know
Hey, punk, get off my case and go
No one can fix more than these boys
No one can kick more than these boys
The boys in the band
You can back down
Yours is no disgrace
No slack clown
It's time to close your face
Hey, now, what have you got that's new
Come on boy what are you trying to prove
No one can take more than these boys
'Cause no one can shake more than these boys
The boys in the band
You can break down
Yours is no disgrace
No slack clown
It's time that you knew your place
Come on break down
'Cause yours is no disgrace
No slack clown
It's time to close your face

I had it all
Or I thought so anyway
And then there came the day
When I knew I'd been deceived.
It was tailor made
The hole I'd dug myself
That morning they came knocking
Couldn't blame nobody else.
You make mistakes
Then you make them all again
And find yourself deserted
By the people you called friends.
All it takes
Is for one deal to go bad
You're signing your confession
As they take all that you have.
And all this years spent sitting here
Waiting to be free.
My day has come
And I can finally see.
Gloria-ah-ah-ah-ah
Gloria-ah-ah-ah-ah
Gloria-ah-ah-ah-ah.
I've dreamed of waking up beyond that wall
It looks like I might make it after all.
There's a kid in here
Reminds me of my son
I watch him with the others
When they laugh about what they've done.
So many ways
To impress one so young
The day they let him out of here
He's gonna find himself a gun.
I tried to say
Tried to make him understand
Fear is not respect
And it won't make a boy a man
Oh, you make mistakes
And you make them all again
It seems that I offended
One of those godforsaken men.
In all these years spent sitting here
The last thing that I see
Is a baby face
With a blade that's made for me.
Gloria-ah-ah-ah-ah
Gloria-ah-ah-ah-ah
Gloria-ah-ah-ah-ah.
I guess some things were never meant to be.
Gloria-ah-ah-ah-ah
Gloria-ah-ah-ah-ah
Gloria-ah-ah-ah-ah.
So open up that gate and welcome me
My spirits flown
And I'm finally free
Wake up in the morning,
Can't recall a thing you did the night before
Consider that a warning,
Pass the ammunition and praise the Lord
Play it down make a decision,
Do it know don't lose the vision
Better get in motion,
Got to get a plan before it hits the fan.
Big time poser
Real deal closer.
Used to be a pin-up,
Everybody said you were a centrefold
Better get the lead out,
All your scandals gettin' way too old
Move your shoes, head for the river
Make a stand, time to deliver
Silly little devil,
Gonna make the headlines on the evening news.
Big time poser
Real deal closer.
Do another number,
Try to get arrested when the TV's there
Call the paparazzi,
Planets getting warmer gonna ruin your hair
Look behind, check your position
Check your brakes, watch for collision
When the play is over,
Nothing really matters you drop the ball.
Big time poser
I've been walking through the old town
Looking for a place to waste some time
For the company of strangers
No one who could know what's on my mind
I'll tell myself she'll be alright
Tell myself I'm doing fine
Yes, I can shoulder the blame
I know how to take a fall.
But tonight I can't take the pain
So I'm staying here for last call
I'm still taking care of business
Giving out guarantees
But when I look at my reflection
I wonder what life done to me
And if you want to help somebody
I'm a dying breed
If you want to save somebody
I'm a dying breed.
Oh, barman, can I light up?
There's no one else in here
I've got some money in your jukebox
Can I have another beer?
When I should have been paying attention
I got lost in my weed
She was the last thing that I wanted
But now she's everything I need
And if you want to hurt somebody
I'm a dying breed
And if yon want to love somebody
I'm a dying breed
If you get me out of trouble, honey
There is something pretty freaking goin 'on in his head
A major violation goin 'on in the bed
Mental molestation of the tormented mind
The manic machinations the sonambiente kind
Skeletons hidden in the closet in the house
Of the mind of the sleep talker
Reds in the beds and Ghosts of the Past
In the mind of the sleep talker
Lies in the eyes and cries of the devils
In the mind of the sleep talker
Sleep talker
Psychosystematic black hole in the soul
In the mind of the sleep talker
Sleep talker
Something in the make up that's a little bit strange
Output may be different but the games never change
The failure of the function of the tormented mind
The manic machinations the sonambiente kind
Skeletons hidden in the closet in the house
Of the mind of the sleep talker
Reds in the beds and Ghosts of the Past
In the mind of the sleep talker
Lies in the eyes and cries of the devils
In the mind of the sleep talker
Sleep talker
Psychosystematic black hole in the soul
Of the mind of the sleep talker
We got Bloods and Cribs
The colours are flying
In the barrio, the people are dying
Thugs and drugs and carjacks too
High School kids with gang tattoos
You better watch your back boy
Gunshots crash
Because you´re under attack boy
The blue lights flash... hide your stash
The turf wars rage
El Diablo has throne
Megra turn their backs
cos we´re killing our own
You better watch your back boy
Gunshots crash
Because you´re under attack boy
The blue lights flash... show me the cash
By the shrine of Santa Maria of the four lane
Please pray for us
By the height of the walls in Arizona
Make way for us
The girls go to church
The boys go to jail
If you´re looking for blood
Just follow the trail
You better watch your back boy
Gunshots crash
Because you´re under attack boy
The blue lights flash... under the lash
By the shrine of Santa Maria of the four lane
Please pray for us
By the height of the walls in Arizona
Make way for us
You better watch your back boy
Gunshots crash
Because you´re under attack boy
The blue lights flash... under the lash
By the shrine of Santa Maria of the four lane
Please pray for us
By the height of the walls in Arizona
Trains, running through the town
Missed my turn around
Trains, got to break away
Got to leave today
There's nothin' gonna stop me
From runnin' the tracks
You never saw me comin'
And I ain't comin' back
I've always been your whippin' boy
I think it's time for a change
Strange, it's always been the same
It's never you to blame
Chains, drag me to the ground
But no one turns around
There's nothin' gonna stop me
From runnin' the tracks
You never saw me comin'
And I ain't comin' back
I've always been your whippin' boy
I think it's time for a change
Names, numbers on your wall
But I'm not gonna fall
Games, I'm tired of playin' clown
Another side show is leavin' town
There's nothin' gonna stop me
From runnin' the tracks
You never saw me comin'
And I ain't comin' back
I've always been your whippin' boy
There's nothin' gonna stop me
From runnin' the tracks
You never saw me comin'
And I ain't comin' back
I've always been your whippin' boy
I see you're trying to place me
This ain't a face you forget
I was right there on the cover
Do you remember me yet?
Better the devil you don't know
You better run for your life
‘Cause now I'm here on the outside
And you've got nowhere to hide
Well I've been watching for years now
From T-shirts and tattoos and passes for VIP's
I'm big and I'm mean and I'm horny and green
And I'm here now
Some kind of voodoo got me on the scene
I'm No Mean Monster
I'm finally free
I'm No Mean Monster
You're gonna party with me now
I'll take you out for a ride
I got one hell of a Harley
A Big old beast of a bike
I was right there on the cover
Down with the rats and the bones
And now you're gonna discover
That I won't leave you alone
No I don't know how I got here
I was a slave to the trade and I had no control
Y'all thought it was nice, when I was just merchandise
But I'm free now
Some kind of voodoo has taken its toll
I'm No Mean Monster
I'm finally free
I'm No Mean Monster
My friends call me Fred
Well I've been watching for years now
From T-shirts and tattoos and passes for VIP's
I'm big and I'm mean and I'm horny and green
And I'm here now
Some kind of voodoo got me on the scene
I'm No Mean Monster
I'm finally free
Look-a look-a yonder (3x)
Well the sun done gone
The captain can't hold her (3x)
The way I do now
Ada got a gold mine (3x)
Way above her knees
The shiv (?) is golden (3x)
Above her knees
Look-a look-a yonder (3x)
Well the sun done gone
Wohoh, Black Betty, bam-e-lam (2x)
Black Betty had a baby, bam-e-lam (2x)
Damn thing was crazy, bam-e-lam (2x)
Wohoh, Black Betty, bam-e-lam (2x)
Oh, Betty Black Betty, bam-e-lam (2x)
Black Betty had a baby, bam-e-lam (2x)
Damn thing was crazy, bam-e-lam (2x)
Black Betty didn't mind, bam-e-lam (2x)
Damn thing was blind, bam-e-lam (2x)
Wohoh, Black Betty, bam-e-lam (2x)
Black Betty, Black Betty, bam-e-lam (2x)
Jump steady Black Betty, bam-e-lam (2x)
That Monday, I was arrested
Tuesday, I locked up in jail
Wednesday baby, my trial's tested
On Thursday, nobody could blow my bail
Yes, I'm almost done (3x)
And I ain't gonna yell against no bells
On Monday, baby I went a-walking
Tuesday, I ... asked to go
On Wednesday I sat down a-talking
On Thursday she hock all a my clothes
Yes, I'm almost done (3x)
I know what I need I need you
I cant see nothin else all I can see is you
I dont care what they say about my state of mind
I know whats good for me and you are just my kind
We are animals we are animals we are animals we are
animals
I know what I want I want you
Shed your cloths forget your codes
You know this is nothing new
I smell your scent I taste your sweat
I feel this passion too
Lets trust our senses not our minds
Lets break all the rules
We are animals we are animals
We are animals we are animals
We are animals
We are animals
Come with me run with me leave this world behind
Come to me come with me I know that we will find
We are animals we are animals
We are animals we are animals
We are animals
You give without takin'
I take what I need
I need what you're givin'
You give me belief
And when I wake in the morning, baby
I feel the strength renew
To face the world on the outside maybe
'Cause on the inside is you.
It's been a long road travelled on
It's been a long road home.
I've got enough love now
I've got enough love now
I've got enough
I've got enough love
I've got enough love now.
The way that you love me
The light in your smile
All the pleasure you give me
On that extra mile
And when I think that I'm fallin', honey
You're my safety net
The world doesn't scare me no way
Can there be more love left.
It's been a long road travelled on
It's been a long road home.
I've got enough love now
I've got enough love now
I've got enough
I've got enough love
I've got enough love now.
It's been a long road travelled on
It's been a long road home.
I've got enough love now
I've got enough love now
I've got enough
I've got enough love
I've got enough love now.
I've got enough love now...
I've got enough love now...
I've got enough love now...
I've got enough love now...
I think that you just found me out
... you just found me out
I know that you just found me out
... you just found me, you just found me out
You think you know me, but what's inside?
Ain't gonna show you, so who am I?
Don't do disclosure, I never tried
Soul Train
On an easy ride
I got no secrets, I tell no lies
But you see through me, to my surprise
I never told you my powders dry
So claimed
I think that you just found me out
. you just found me out
Know that you just found me out
... you just found me, you just found me out
I think that you just found me out
. you just found me out
Know that you just found me out
... you just found me, you just found me out
I live in limbo, I've got no ties
Just look at me and you'll see no files
Oh it's all out there, there's no disguise
So Claimed
On an easy ride
Slippin' and slidin'
We all make our way
Duckin' and Divin'
All the games that people play
... you just found me out
I know that you just found me out
... you just found me, you just found me out
I think that you just found me out
... you just found me out
I know that you just found me out
... you just found me, you just found me out
I think that you just found me out
. you just found me out
Know that you just found me out
... you just found me, you just found me out
I think that you just found me out
. you just found me out
Know that you just found me out
... you just found me, you just found me out
Walking alone at night in the cold rain
Wondering if I will see you again
In some corner light
Running down the road in the warm sun
Dreaming that I am still the one
Resting by your side
Chorus:
You took the road to fortune and fame
Your name in lights
I want you to know I still feel the same
Star
I still love you
Remembering when you played me that first song
The first show that you asked me along
Just to be around
Working so hard 'till you got that first break
You said you could turn them around
Give them something new
(Chorus:)
Got that photograph of you and me
I hear your voice on my radio
Will I ever lay with you again
Nobody planned it, we just seem to drift now
I always seem to have to leave
Just as you come around
But someday soon girl I just got to see you
I just gotta find out
If we still have time
(copyright Nazareth, Tiflis Tunes, inc.-ascap)
Mist upon the hill can remember murder,
Mist upon the hill that once flowed with blood
Helped to cover up an approaching army,
Hid the killing lust in the eyes of men.
Sitting by the fire was a sentry sleeping,
Rolled up in their beds were children that play,
Unsuspecting what was to fall upon them,
None of them would see the dawn next day.
Bloody were the blades that fell on children,
Hate the blinding light tried to kill a name,
The mountains only know all the souls that died there,
Glen Coe from that day can recall the shame.
The quiet of the night never gave them warning,
The silence of the hills wouldn't let them know,
They'd never rise again on a mist-filled morning,
Black hearted woman
Can't you see your poor man is down
I can't take this baby
All the lonely nights I've been crying
Tired of all your separate ways
I can't take your evil lyin'
Black hearted woman
Trouble and pain is all you crave
Black hearted woman
Trouble and pain is all you crave
Now that I'm gone my trouble's stopped
But my truth got in my way
Yesterday I was your man
But now you don't even know my name
Yesterday I was your man
But now I don't even know your name
Got to find a new way girl
Before I get back in your game
One of these days baby
I'm gonna catch ya with your backdoor man
I said one of these days woman
You know I'll catch you with your backdoor man
Keep on down the road girl
Dreamin? i saw a spirit in the sky
I'm dreamin? dreaming away again
I felt a cold wind rushing in
And carry me up high
Far above the maddening crowd I fly
It's so exciting
Electrifying
And I can see there's no dreams
Dreamin? i saw a strange light in the sky
I'm dreamin? dreaming away again
I felt this power touching me
Reelin? in my lies
Visions came,
My heart began to rise
It's so exciting
Electrifying
I feel the sun is in my dreams
I've seen the wild side of city lights
Walked the streets where the lightning strikes
I've heard the thunder and I know
But I've never had such feelings before
In my dreams
Dreamin? away again
Dreamin? away again
Dreamin? i saw a spirit in the sky
I'm dreaming
I saw a strange light in the sky
I'm dreaming
I saw a shadow passing by
I'm dreaming
Dreamin? away again
I'm dreaming
Dreamin? away again
Dreamin? dreamin? away again
Walkin? down on main street
Well, it's not the same street like before
Those drinks that I've been drinkin? were stirred not shaken, ooh it's sore
My legs have gone all weak
It's so hard for me to speak anymore
I must get home to bed
And rest my aching head, that's for sure
Drivin? in the country
The grass is green as it was before
Rolled up on that river
Just ain't as clean that's for sure
You know my legs have gone all weak
It's so hard for me to speak anymore
I must get home to bed
And rest my aching head, that's for sure
Goin? down to main street to buy some wine
Make some love with that woman of mine
Drink some wine
Love some time
Ah- walkin? down on main street
Well it's not the same street like before
Those drinks that I've been drinkin? were stirred not shaken, ooh it's sore
You know my legs have gone all weak
It's so hard for me to speak anymore
Well I must get home to bed
Shapes of things before my eyes
Just teach me to despise
Will time make men more wise?
Here within my lonely frame
My eyes just hurt my brain
But will it seem the same?
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
Come tomorrow, may I be bolder than today?
Now the trees are almost green
But will they still be seen
When time and tide have been?
Oh, into your passing hands
Please don't destroy these lands
Don't make them desert sands
Come tomorrow, will I be older?
Come tomorrow, may be a soldier
