You've got me runnin' round in circles
Tied my little brothers to a railroad track
In the black of the night you sit and pant
Crammed them all together in a plastic bag
You're a night prowler, you're a night howler, yeh
Trash can murders
In the black of night
Trash can murders
When will it be alright
Walk the streets and you're dressed in black
You tied their hands behind their backs
That's cold yeh, ya know it's true
Just wait and see what happens to you
You're a night prowler, you're a night howler, yehTrash can murders
In the black of night
Trash can murders
When will it be alright
I can hear him scream, it's midnight
In the alley like a Chinese cat
I've got a hatchet gonna take your life
Oh yeh, tell me, what ya think of that
I'm a night prowler, I'm a night howler yeh
Trash can murders
In the black of night
Trash can murders
When will it be alright
(Joan Jett)
I think the Russian's got a weather machine
I think they're planning a takeover scheme
Doin' a good job on our countryside
They want to be our friends, but it's an obvious lie
They buried New York and they drowned L.A.
Sometimes I wonder if I'll see the next day
I know the Russian's are behind this shit
No ones goin' to know it until it's too late
Takeover they're taking over
How long till they get everyone
Takeover they're taking over
How can we be so dumb They asked us for our help to rip China down
They want to rule every city want to rule every town
I can't stand the thought of what might happen to us
I get so confused I don't know who I can trust
Takeover they're taking over
How long till they get everyone
Takeover they're taking over
How can we be so dumb
(Joan Jett)
You know that I'm not an angel
I told you when you walked in the door
You know that you make me happy
Better than the time before
Take it or leave it
Do whatever you want
Take it or leave it
Do whatever you want to me
You know that you're just a playmate
What are you trying to gain
Lead me into the darkness
To Play our little nightime games
Take it or leave it
Do whatever you want
Take it or leave it
Do whatever you want to meYou say you wanna be with me
I see it in you
It's only a one night stand
And then we're through
You know that it makes me sad
To see how you feel for me
I gotta start movin' on
Someone else is waitin' for me
Take it or leave it
Do whatever you want
Take it or leave it
Do whatever you want to me
(Kim Fowley/Ronnie Lee)
Wild in the streets, barely alive
Mama's always telling me stay inside
Don't you hang around with those young boys
Soon you'll be lovin' them
They're all night toys
I wanna be where the boys are
I wanna fight how the boys fight
I wanna love how the boys love
I wanna be where the boys are
Hot love hear, I got the drive
Neighbours been bugging me I gotta hide
I am the bitch with the hot guitar
I am the air, the sun and starsI wanna be where the boys are
I wanna fight how the boys fight
I wanna love how the boys love
I wanna be where the boys are
Wild in the streets, barely alive
Mama's always telling me stay inside
Don't you hang around with those young boys
Soon they'll be loving you with all their joy
I wanna be where the boys are
I wanna fight how the boys fight
I wanna love how the boys love
I wanna be where the boys are
(Earl Slick/Tonio K)
Let's talk about women
Let's talk about love

And the comin' I've done
I live for the weekend
It's part of the script
You pray for an angel
Well, hey this is it
You can dress me in ribbons
You can tie me in knots

Provocative shots

And if I don't like it

I want something bad and nice - hot love
I want it nice from paradise - your love
All night long I'm chasing fast - true love
Make me scream, make it fast
We lovers never say goodbye
We lovers never die
We stop and go so quietly
Cold lovers fade away
I'm the one for you
You know what I say is true
I won't cry to tell you why
I know that you love me too
You do a 1, 2, 3, 4
Oh yeah come on nowI want a kiss wet and real - strong love
I wanna tell you how I feel - right now
All night long it rained and rained - my love
Make me scream hey what's your name?
We lovers never say goodbye
We lovers never die
We stop and go so quietly
Cold lovers fade away
(C. Currie/K. Fowley/Steven T.)
Out here in the smokey places
Looking into those empty faces
Short wave says we made the dial
I'm wired for ten million miles
Making midnight music
Singing rock and roll songs
Living midnight music
Just to get along
Back here in this cold hotel
I'm bored but you can tell
Your smile said we did OK
I'm glad we had a chance to play
Making midnight music
Singing rock and roll songs
Living midnight music
Just to get alongFrom the plane I see the back roads
Your twilight cities your super towns
From the stage I see the drifters
Lost souls who ain't been found
Out there in the five buck seats
We live inside your own heartbeats
We share the falls you take
Everything feels like it's just bout to break
Making midnight music
Singing rock and roll songs
Living midnight music
Just to get along
(Kim Fowley/Lita Ford)
I got myself a bad lover
His name is Johnny Guitar lookout
Go for it Johnny
All night long
Go for it Johnny
That's where I'm coming from
My fingers roll his body
Making him scream
And I'm lost in a metal dreamGo for it Johnny
All night long
Go for it Johnny
That's where I'm coming from
Hot hands on his wet neck
I'm a hunter he's my gun
Go for it Johnny
All night long
Go for it Johnny
That's where I'm coming from
(Lita Ford)
I can't stand it
I got to break lose somehow
When this boat starts rockin'
And people keep knockin' on my door
I want to run run run run away from here
I want to run run run run away from here
I want to run away from here
Little lost girls
Little lost girls in the night
Little lost girls
Little lost girls in the night
You make my heart sting
Burning like it's on fire
You've got me wanting
More from you in every way
I want to run run run run away from here
I want to run run run run away from here
I want to run away from here Little lost girls
Little lost girls in the night
Little lost girls
Little lost girls in the night
When I see you each day

But you follow me round
Like like a shadow upon the ground
I want to run run run run away from here
I want to run run run run away from here
I want to run away from here
Little lost girls
Little lost girls in the night
Little lost girls
Little lost girls in the night

Each night alone I dream
That I'm a rebel roller queen
I'll be a star that shines

Thousands cheered as you appeared
The band was playing
We drove away that Saturday
I wanted you knew where you were staying
Backstage lied about my age
Didn't care that you were older
Stop look listen to my heartbeat
Stop look listen to my heartbeat
Here you are a superstar
But I sing and play in my own way
You got your fans and I got mine
But I need your love that's the bottom line
I sing lead and so do you
Get together what will we do?Stop look listen to my heartbeat
Stop look listen to my heartbeat
Danced all night till the room was light
You said goodbye I wondered why
Radio played you couldn't stay
You'd miss your plane in the morning rain
Here I am in the limousine
Once again the lonely queen
Stop look listen to my heartbeat
Stop look listen to my heartbeat
(K. Fowley/J. Jett/K. Krome/S. West)
Turn up that radio
Hear the rock and roll
Malibu shines like summer gold
Wild beaches
In the salty wind
California summers never end
California - you're so nice

In their super cars
All night parties and loud guitars
Hot hot neighbourhoods
Its the silver sound
Wicked Hollywood goes round and round
California - you're so nice
California - your paradise

Clean rock n roll

Come on let's have a good time
In the dark of the night
We hunt for fun
Chasing after the moonlight
Hiding from the sun
American nights
You kids are so strange

Our magic is young
Cause we just begun
We light up the sky
Always on the run
We live in the streets
In the alleys of screams
Cause we're the queens of noise
The answer to your dreams
American nights
You kids are so strange

Mother and father came from New York City
Working their life away
Know they'll give me anything
That a little girl needs to make my life pretty
Seen you before but you're making me sore
But I'm trying not to make a sound
Couldn't help notice you were wanting me
You said I can help you make your life pretty
Oh, baby I'm a million, oh yeah
Oh, baby I'm a million You like to mess around with your favorite guns
I hope you blow yourself to hell
Cause I've the need honey I got the greed
Just to make my life a little more pretty
Oh, baby I'm a million, oh yeah
Oh, baby I'm a million
(Steve Jones)
Ooh,
Well, he's all geared up, walkin' down the street
I can see the slime, drippin' down his sleeve
Well, you can't refuse and you just can't choose what he's gonna do
Well, you can't refuse and you just can't choose what he's gonna do
Ooh,
Well, it's late at night, and I'm all alone
I can hear the boots gettin' near her home
Well, you can't refuse and you just can't choose what he's gonna do
Well, you can't refuse and you just can't choose what he's gonna do
Scratch, scratch, he's clawing at the door
Whoa, no, I can't take it anymore
Crack, crack I'm feeling so sore,
I never should have asked for black leather
Black leather, black leather, black leather
You can try to hide, you know you won't get far
You let him in, and you'll start again
Well, you can't refuse and you just can't choose what he's gonna do
Well, you can't refuse and you just can't choose what he's gonna do
Scratch, scratch, she's clawing at the door
Whoa, no, I can't take it anymore
Crack, crack I'm feeling so sore,
I never should asked for black leather
Black leather, black leather, black leather
(John Lennon/Paul McCartney)
Let me take you down, 'cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real, and nothing to get hungabout
Strawberry Fields forever
Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone but it all works out, it doesn't matter much to me
Let me take you down, 'cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real, and nothing to get hungabout
Strawberry Fields forever
No one I think is in my tree, I mean it must be high or low
That is you can't you know tune in but it's all right, that is I think it's not too bad
Let me take you down, 'cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real, and nothing to get hungabout
Strawberry Fields forever
Always, no sometimes, think it's me, but you know I know when it's a dream
I think I know I mean a ";Yes"; but it's all wrong, that is I think I disagree
Let me take you down, 'cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields
Nothing is real, and nothing to get hungabout
Strawberry Fields forever
Strawberry Fields forever
Strawberry Fields forever
(Joan Jett)

I met you last nite, it was really alright
We got along
We partied awhile, you gave me the smile
Nothin' went wrong
Hold me close, hold me really tight
Go ahead, make me feel alright
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need to make it
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need ooooh!
The very next day, you saw us play
It was really a kick
Drippin' in sweat, I got very wet, honey
You did the trick
Hold me close, hold me really tight
Go ahead, make me feel alrightDon't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need to make it
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need ooooh!

You're just what I need to make it
Don't go away, I'm so happy
You're just what I need ooooh!

Good mornin' sunshine feels like Hollywood
Got lipstick traces of famous Hollywood
And in my school I'm like the legend of Hollywood
Mama says I'm much too good for the neighborhood
Hollywood wish I could
They say I'm too young to dream
But I see your treasures in my magazines
Hollywood wish I could
Good evening moonlight feels like Hollywood
Got the kinda face that would be loved in Hollywood
On my television I get news from Hollywood
Daddy says I'm much too good for the neighborhood
Hollywood wish I could
They say I'm too young to dream
But I see your treasures in my magazines
Hollywood wish I could Don't want the heartbreak and the pain
Nor the fortune and the fame
All my friends are still in school
The ones I've lost say I'm a fool
Yes, I'm a fool, I'm a fool
Hollywood wish I could
They say I'm too young to dream
But I see your treasures in my magazines
Hollywood wish I could
Hollywood wish I could
They say I'm too young to dream
But I see your treasures in my magazines
Hollywood wish I could
Hollywood I wish I could
They say I'm too young to dream
But I see your treasures in my magazines
Hollywood wish I could

With every beat of my heart its getting dark
There's something in the air
The doors aren't locked, you know it's not
But I just know you're somewhere
Hands on the table, are they empty got a fable
Is it true?
Say he's coming no one said a word
They've gotten through
Its such a crush, its getting hot
Temperature's rising it's getting hot
Shot a single word for telling true
I can hear him pant
I wanna leave but I just can't breathe free
If they begin their chantIts such a crush, its getting hot
Temperature's rising it's getting hot
Church is breaking my body's shaking
I just can't tell
He's coming back my head is black
He must be under a spell
Its such a crush, its getting hot
Temperature's rising it's getting hot
(J. Jett/K. Fowley)

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darlin' it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darlin' it feels like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Little darlin' the smiles returning to their faces
Little darlin' it seems like years since it's been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes
Little darlin' I feel the ice is slowly meltin'
Little darlin' it seems like years since it's been clear
Here come the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it's all right
Here come the sun, here comes the sun
It's all right, it's all right

There she stood in the street
Smiling from her head to her feet
I said hey what is this
Now maybe baby
Maybe she's in need for a kiss
I said Hey, what's your name babe
Maybe we can see things at same
Now don't you wait or hesitate
Let's move before they raise the parking rate!
All right now
Baby it's all right now
All right now
Baby it's all right now I took her home to my place
Watching every move on her face
She said look what's your game
Are you trying to put me in shame
I said slow don't talk so fast
Don't you think that love can last
She said love Lord above
Now you're tryin' to trick me in love
All right now
Baby it's all right now
All right now
Baby it's all right now
All right now
Baby it's all right now
All right now
Baby it's all right now

Let me out of your iron grip
I don't want your lover's tips
I don't need your interrogations
Don't ask me 'bout my other relations
You're too possessive for me
So leave me alone
Get off my back, go on home
You're too possessive for me
So get out of my life
Get off my back, I ain't your wife
I come in late an' you throw a fit
You sit me down and give me some lip
Well I don't have to waste my time
A wimp like you ain't worth a dime You're too possessive for me
So leave me alone
Get off my back, go on home
You're too possessive for me
So get out of my life
Get off my back, I ain't your wife
No way, baby
Go away an' don't come back
I don't want my mirror cracked
Go and find somebody new
Got no time to mess with you
You're too possessive for me
So leave me alone
Get off my back, go on home
You're too possessive for me
So get out of my life
Get off my back, I ain't your wife
No way, baby
(Joan Jett/Kim Fowley)
Blue skinned sleeping boys
Man you're lookin' wasted
Greasy wheels, streets of steel
No tellin' what ya tasted
Good guys bad guys
Doesn't really matter
Punch drunk, high on junk
Sad you are so shattered
Wasted lives of wasted drives
Wasted days an' wasted nights
Wasted this an' wasted that
Wasted is where you're at
Torpedoes in tuxedos
Got iron in their hands
Cotton sound, lost an' found
Is in every crazy man
Lonely rain, bad cocaine
Doesn't really matter
China white, don't treat ya right
Sad you are so shatteredWasted lives of wasted drives
Wasted days an' wasted nights
Wasted this an' wasted that
Wasted is where you're at
Madhouse melodies
Got beach rats on the run
Golden tractors, low plus factors
Silver bullets, rubber gun
Redneck rocker, or devil daughter
Doesn't really matter
Cheap dope, ya can't cope
Sad you are so shattered
Wasted lives of wasted drives
Wasted days an' wasted nights
Wasted this an' wasted that
Wasted is where you're at
(Joan Jett/Kari Krome/Kim Fowley)
Shades of gray don't fade away
They're waitin' for the night
Goin' out is what we're about
We're waitin' for the night
Friends and foes movin' fast and movin' slow
We're waitin' for the night
Hangin' around so astounded
Waitin' for the night
Waitin' for the night
Waitin' for the night
Days are taken
Waitin' for the night
At the hall havin' a ball
Waitin' for the night
Don't care, don't care at all
Cause we've seen, we've seen it all
Waitin' for the night
Waitin' for the night
Waitin' for the night
Days are taken
Waitin' for the night
(Joan Jett)
Don't wanna leave you again baby
But ya know I have to someday
Don't wanna be alone again baby
But I know we found our own way
We hold ourselves together
It's a bond that can never be broken
I know we'll last forever
But there's something that I just gotta say
Wait for me my lover
Wait for me no other
Stay with me, oh please
Wait for me
You know it's really hard on me
To have to turn an' wave good-bye
An' I know it's hard on you too
All those lonely nites we cry butWait for me my lover
Wait for me no other
Stay with me, oh please
Wait for me
You know I get so scared inside
When I come back you won't want me
But then you tell me I'm your only one
I guess it's just my insecurity but
Wait for me my lover
Wait for me no other
Stay with me, oh please
Wait for me
(Kim Fowley/Joan Jett)
Used to be the trouble maker
Hated homework, was a sweet heartbreaker
But now I have my dream
I'm so rowdy for eighteen
Never read a single book
Hated homework and the dirty looks
Now I live my life
There's a lot I seen at eighteen
School days, school days
I'm older, now what will I find
School day, school days
Starting to slip I'm losin' my mind
Used to be the wild one
Hated class only lived for fun
I'm mean an' got my schemes
At the crazy age of eighteen Never made the honor roll
Hated rules what I was told
Now I am almost free
It's a dangerous scene when you're eighteen
School days, school days
I'm older, now what will I find
School day, school days
Starting to slip I'm losin' my mind
(Joan Jett/Inger Asten)
Little Sister on your rollerskates
It's Friday nite an' you got a date
Right in front of the Watergate.
But now he's gone 'cause you're too late
It's too late to be a kid in love
It's too late to be a kid in love
We're the kids in hate
Little sister you're sure lookin' great
You hope someday you'll be playmate
Well why did you wait
The chance is gone an' now you're too lateIt's too late to be a kid in love
It's too late to be a kid in love
We're the kids in hate
Little sister don't you be so straight
Let your old folks call ya jailbait
This mean world it belongs to us
It can be yours so don't hesitate
It's too late to be a kid in love
It's too late to be a kid in love
We're the kids in hate
(Joan Jett)
In the dead of the night I slip away
Lookin' for some heavy action
No matter what it is, I get that little itch
My body needs satisfaction
Gotta get out tonite
The wild one is callin' me
Gotta get out tonite
Out on the town is where I'll be alright
My folks think I'm bad and you know
They're probably right
But I don't listen to a thing they say
But I don't listen to a thing they say
Cause They're always uptightMy fantasy is strong, it really turns me on
I'm gettin' oh so wet
When will I discover my red hot lover
The one I'll never forget
Gotta get out tonite
The wild one is callin' me
Gotta get out tonite
Out on the town is where I'll be alright
(Lita Ford)
Night visions of fantasies
Are laying in bed with me
In the dark I can see you smiling
You touch my body and set my soul on fire
Oh yeh
I can see morning light
The sun is rising, shining in your eyes
Suddenly you're gone
And I'm left here all alone
Oh yeh
Am I dreaming?
Were you really here?
Is it just a fantasy?
Or am I dreaming
Oh yehAm I dreaming?
Were you really here?
Is it just a fantasy?
Or am I dreaming
Oh yeh
I know you're here
I can feel your presence
And that sound you're making
It's getting me so hot
Oh yeh
Am I dreaming?
Were you really here?
Is it just a fantasy?
Or am I dreaming
Oh yeh
(S. Anderson/C. Currie/K. Fowley/J. Jett)
I'm a blond bombshell and I wear it well
You're momma says you go straight to hell
I'm sweet sixteen and a rebel queen
I look real hot in my tight blue jeans
Dead end kids in the danger zone
All of you are drunk or stoned
Dead end kids you're not alone
You sleep in the street when you're not at home
Long hot summers make you wanna fight
The roar of the city lasts all night
You like drugs you like brew
You won't believe what I can do to you
Dead end kids in the danger zone
All of you are drunk or stoned
Dead end kids you're not alone
You sleep in the street when you're not at home
I got away clean with my fake ID
No more school or mommy for me
Stealing cars and breaking hearts
Pills and thrills and acting smart
Dead end kids in the danger zone
All of you are drunk or stoned
Dead end kids you're not alone
You sleep in the street when you're not at home
In the naked city
Spaces ain't that pretty
As I was getting dusted
I happened to get busted
Oh yes I was arrested
Oh god how I protested
They beat me with a board
It hurt just like a sword
They kicked me in the eye
My brain began to fry
This is like a movie
I know I'm gonna scream
All the pain that I feel
Makes me feel mean
It's so sad and crazy here
I think I'm gonna cry
If I don't wake up from this dream
I think I'm gonna........die
Where am !?
Your in a cheap run down teenage jail thats where
Oh my god!
Yeah blondie your gonna be here till your 18 so get used to it
Behind the bars, there's a superstar
Who never had a chance
She could sing, she could dance
You don't sing and dance in juvie honey
Behind the walls, they've seen it all
Gotta have, gotta have
Justice, justice
Don't want your law and order
Justice, justice
Or world wide disorder
What you in for?
Wouldn't you like to know.
Behind the fence, there is no defense
There's murder, rape and bribery
In and out, burglary
You don't look so tough
Oh I been around
On the planet sorrow, there is no tommorrow
Gonna get.....
Justice, justice
Don't want your law and order
Justice, justice
Or world wide disorder
You can't turn off the tears
They crawl in juvenile hall
Cruel reform schools
They don't smile, they got no bail or jury trial
Joan, lets break out tonite
Ok Cherie, whats the plan?
You grab the guard, in the prison yard
Get his keys and gun, we'll run
My old man's waiting outside in a van
Is he handsome?
You'll see
Cause you know, we gotta be free
Justice, justice
Don't want your law and order
Justice, justice
Or world wide disorder
We'll go far through the prison yard
You and me, we will be free
Just be safe, don't be late
If you see the guard don't hesitate
But Joan I'm getting tired
I've run out of fire
I can't go any farther
But Cherie you must try harder
Joan, I'm down, my ankle
I can't go on, but I can't leave you
What do I do?
Save yourself, you know what you gotta do
OH MY GOD
(B. Bizeau)
With a pinch of rock and a dose of roll
I can warm you up if you get too cold
I can bring you up when you're going down
I can smash your head all over this town
You gave me the answer
Now I got the answer, oh yeah
Cause we're the queens of noise
Come and get it boys
Queens of noise
Not just one of your toys
Queens of noiseI remember you at our second show
You were holding on and you wouldn't let go
And I bet you'll always be that way
Whenever you see us start to play
You gave me the answer
Now I got the answer, oh yeah
Cause we're the queens of noise
Come and get it boys
Queens of noise
Not just one of your toys
Queens of noise
(Lita Ford/Kim Fowley/Jackie Fox)
No one here gets out alive
Pushing power in overdrive
Cobra kings wet and wild
Love the devil thats in your smile
Let me tell yuo what we been doing
Neon angels on the road to ruin
Let me tell you what we been doing
Neon angels on the road to ruin
Everybody who's ever on fire
Now's the time for our desireLet me tell yuo what we been doing
Neon angels on the road to ruin
Let me tell you what we been doing
Neon angels on the road to ruin
Highways hard in this modern world
Battered boys and shattered girls
Leather bombers that rule the streets
Setting fires and living heat
Let me tell yuo what we been doing
Neon angels on the road to ruin
Let me tell you what we been doing
Neon angels on the road to ruin
(Danielle Fay/Bob Willingham)

We speak in codes and no one knows
Cause we're living a double life
Kept inside our love dreams hide
Cause we're living a double life
Secrets
We're got dreams
Mysteries
And crazy schemes
Secrets
We've got dreams
Secrets
Can't be seen
Out on the street the shadows meet
Cause we're living a double life
We can't tell it fits so well
Thats we're living a double life Secrets
We're got dreams
Mysteries
And crazy schemes
Secrets
We've got dreams
Secrets
Can't be seen
Shhh someones coming

(Jett)
Before I was in
A rock n' roll band
I couldn't get the time of day
Now I'm doin' everything I can
I thought I had it made
Strangers drop in
And pretend they're friends
People I don't even know
I want you, I need you
It's so hard to tell
And what you're really feelin'
Won't show
Don't abuse me
Now you listen to what I say
If you're tryin' to use me
Why don't you just go away
You took me around
An' you showed me the town
I thought you were kind of nice
But if someone stepped in
With more to show
You'd drop me without thinkin' twice
You tie yourself to my apron strings
Thinkin' your friends will be impressed
You get your way by bribin' me
Tellin' me I'm the bestDon't abuse me
Now you listen to what I say
If you're tryin' to use me
Why don't you just go away
Who can I trust an' where can I go
To find someone who truly wants me
Take me for what I am
That's the way it's gotta be
Rock n' roll love you want so bad
Tellin' everybody you're mine
But we both know deep down inside
You're just diggin' for every dime
(Joan Jett)
Don't turn away, I know you feel it
If you want me love, you don't have to steal it
Your eyes they beg
The tears you fashion up
Gonna get involved in the nature of love
C'mon, C'mon
You know you make me want you
C'mon, oh c'mon
It's getting late, we made a start now
I can't talk about that love anyhow
Your eyes are wide, your body's shakin'
I got the hives my soul is achin'C'mon, C'mon
You know you make me want you
C'mon, oh c'mon
Hot throat, to race this love I have
You're one of a kind, don't want no other
Love is your thing you keep my style
Clean me out with an easy smile
C'mon, C'mon
You know you make me want you
C'mon, oh c'mon
(J. Jett/K. Fowley)
You didn't care you went and broke my heart
I'll get ya back you know it's gonna start
You gave me pain thats whatcha done to me
When I get through you'll be sorry you met me
You'll wish you were never born
Blackmail, blackmail
I'll make you pay
For the life that you tore
Blackmail
Black

It took so long and I waited my turn

Blackmail, blackmail

For the life that you tore
Blackmail
Black
Mail

Now you listen to what I'm about to say
Or you won't live to see the light of day, you know
(Joan Jett)
You know when you're close you really turn me on
Thats why I want you so bad when your gone, yeah

Please stay with me and don't you leave me alone
You drive me wild

Love like this just can't be bought
You drive me wild

Uh huh
You drive me wild
You know I need you
(M. Anthony/K. Krome)
When the moon is out it starts to shine
Thunder crashes want to make you mine
The sky lights up in my mind
Fireworks between us you'll find
And its thunder
The spell that I'm under
It's thunder
I see lightning crash
And its thunder
Oh how our love flashes
It's thunder
Don't need no other feeling
All the others their just the same
But oh my baby your a hurricane
Let me be your battered angel
So you can be my tattered devilAnd its thunder
The spell that I'm under
It's thunder
I see lightning crash
And its thunder
Oh how our love flashes
It's thunder
Don't need no other feeling
Your my teenage fire
That's in my heart
Now our flaming love is gonna start
Oh its gonna start
(L. Reed)
Ginni said when she was five years old
You know there's nothing going down at all
She turned on that radio
And there was nothing happenin' at all
She turned on that LA station
Couldn't believe what she heard at all
She started dancing to that fine fine music
Her life was saved by rock and roll
Despite all the complications
You could just dance to that rock and roll station
And it was alright
It was alright
It was alright
It was alright, you betcha Ginni said when she was five years old
You know our parents will be the death of us all
Two TV sets and two cadillac cars
Well they don't mean nothin' at all
She turned on that LA station
Couldn't believe what she heard at all
She started dancin' to that fine fine music
Her life was saved by rock and roll
Despite all the complications
You could just dance to that rock and roll station
And it was alright
It was alright
It was alright
It was alright, you betcha
(Kim Fowley)
I don't like to live alone
Out on the avenue
I can't go back to being straight
I've seen the gutter view
Is it day or night?
Porcupine kiss, novacaine lips
Is it day or night?
White flowers weep
In their warm dust sleep
And its dog eat dog tonightBack door to insanity
Was ripped from their throats
Street wise hustlers and six string masters
Look cold in their over coats
Is it day or night?
Porcupine kiss, novacaine lips
Is it day or night?
White flowers weep
In their warm dust sleep
And its dog eat dog tonight
(K. Fowley/S. West/M. Steele)
Bodies without minds
I hear you're the one with the bleeding heart
Blue and bittersweet
You tear my dreams apart
Cause I was born to be bad
I'm not sad
But I'm glad I did it
Born to be bad
I'm not sad why don't you all get with it
The damned don't cry
Cry out when they're betrayed
Bodies slam they scream
As the keynotes fade
Cause I was born to be bad
I'm not sad
But I'm glad I did it
Born to be bad
I'm not sad why don't you all get with it
I called my mother from Hollywood the other day
And I said ";Mom, I just called to tell ya I joined a rock and roll band
And I won't be coming home no more";
You know what she did?
She started crying and weeping and wimpering like all mothers do
She woke up my father and told him about it and he said
";There ain't a damn thing we can do, thats the way she is
She was just born to be bad";
I want you to bring me his ears
To satisfy my mad desires
And if he bites the dust
We'll just have to miss my fire
Cause I was born to be bad
I'm not sad
But I'm glad I did it
Born to be bad
I'm not sad why don't you all get with it
