You made me cry
When you said good-bye.
Ain't that a shame!
My tears fell like rain.
Ain't that a shame!
You're the one to blame!
You broke my heart
When you said we'll part.
Ain't that a shame!
My tears fell like rain.
Ain't that a shame!
You're the one to blame!
Oh well, good-bye,
Although I'll cry.
Ain't that a shame!
My tears fell like rain.
Ain't that a shame!
It's not the way you look no-no
It's not the way you walk
Your eyes are somethin' good
You know they're clear and bright
It's not the color of your hair
Big eyes
I keep falling for those
Big eyes
They keep calling my name
You're such a losin' cause
Who says you write the laws
Why don't you go get lost
Who says you write the laws
Go on get out of here
(Repeat 2 twice)
(Repeat 3)
(Repeat 1)
(Repeat 2)
Big eyes
Big eyes
Big eyes
Big eyes
(Repeat 2 twice)

When it's turning upside down
When all I see is rain
When I think the night won't end
I just think of you
And I can see the sun again
Chorus
* Wherever would I be without you, tell me
If I didn't have you
Whatever would I do now baby
Whatever would I be without you
I'd be nowhere I'd be nowhere
When the dreams I dream
All seem a million miles away
When I'm sure I'll never win
When it's looking like I've left my faith
I just look at you baby
And I got reason to believe again
* Repeat
Without you to love me
I'd just be wasting time
And goin' out of my mind
You think that it's funny
You think I'm a fool
It's nothin' I needed
Just somethin' to do
Out of touch out of time
It's not easy to find, well
These two hearts are
Broken before they start, so
Chorus
* Walk away walk away
I don't mind I don't mind
Don't act like you're worried
I'm feelin' no pain
You got what you needed
You fun little game
Stoned and confused
I know
It ain't easy
To hold on
We've been hidin'
Pretendin' cheatin' and lyin'
* Repeat x2
Don't know what to thank
Who to blame
We were lovers just the same, well
Startin' Stoppin'
Over and over and over
* Repeat x3
Girl it's all right if it's one of those nights and you need me
Swallow your pride there's nothing to hide, Do you need me?
Such a long long time I've been waiting for a sign Say you need me
I've been dreaming of the day when I hear you say, say you need me
Pre-Chorus
I believe in you, you believe in me but I can't feel it in my heart
So what's wrong with you, what's the matter with me
And how come we're so far apart
Chorus
I can stand a little hurt and I can stand a lot of pain
We can work it out all right if you need me
Can we be serious can you and I keep a secret?
Hold it inside between you and I, Can you keep it?
Been thinking of a way just to get you to say, say you need me
Such a long, long time I've been waiting for a sign, say you need me
Pre-Chorus
I believe in you you believe in me but I can't feel it in my heart
So what's wrong with you, what's the matter with me
And how come we're so far apart
Chorus

We can work it out all right if you need me
And I just wanna let you know that we don¡¯t have to let it go
You know we can work it out all right if you need me
Oh Oh

Back against the wall
But you know the weekend's on it's way

I see some trouble comin' into view
Don't you know that I'm doin' alright on my own
Chorus
*I can't understand it
What's a matter with you oh oh
I can't understand it
What a poor man to do ... oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Walking down the hall
Please stop in anytime of day
Let's do more than talk
About the weekend games we play
I set my sights on you
Let's make tonight a deep interview
Don't you know that I'm doin' alright on my own
* Repeat
I ain't out to destroy you, oh
I'm comin' out to enjoy you, oh
It's just a case of paranoia in my brain
I've got my eyes on you
I've got my gun loaded just for two
If you knew my feelings
I'm tellin' the truth
* Repeat x2
Hey little ladies
There's some cool young dude
Just standin' in line
Waitin' for you
There's a girl in the corner
With a jacked up dress
She's got legs for miles but
But her face looks a mess
Chorus
There's always something for everyone
But a love can be suicide
Oh yeah
It's just what you've been waiting for
And I know it can't be denied
Can't stop fallin' into love
What's my heart been dreamin' up
Who's that falling' into love
Is it you I'm thinkin' of
Hey rock 'n rollers
What's a happenin' with you
You've got the itch
Well I've got it too
It's hard to be a winner every time
But I know you take it, you can make it all right
It's time that you just can't hide
But I can't control myself
Oh no no no
I know what you've been waitin' for
'Cause love can't be denied Yeah oo
Chorus
Can't stop fallin' into love
What's my heart been dreamin' up
Who's that falling' into love

There's always somethin' for everyone
And I know what you mean in my eyes
I just can't control myself
And I fall for it every time Oh yeah
Chorus
Can't stop fallin' into love
What's my heart been dreamin' up
Who's that falling' into love
Is it you I'm thinkin' of
Chorus
Can't stop fallin' into love
What's my heart been dreamin' up
Who's that falling' into love
Is it you I'm thinkin' of
Cant stop fallin' into love oo
What's my heart been dreamin' up
No matter what I think or do or say Hey
You've got me all woundup and ready to go
Every night when I see your eyes
You look like no other
Even though the world has all kinds
You can find friends and lovers
Where have you been all my life?
Why did you wait son long? (Wait so long)
I've been lookin' every night
I'll be with you from now on
Hey, hey, hey
You've got me all wound up and ready to go
Hey, hey, hey
You've got me all wound up and ready to go
If you feel left out in the crowd
You are not the only
You can go where the music is loud
And you won't be so lonely
Hello, hello
Is there anyone?
You don't know
How I've searched, searched the world for you
Hello, hello
Is there any place
A thousand hearts, a million miles of dreams and thoughts of you

Words and Music by Rick Nielsen
Going to write a three act play
So I can be with you
Produce, direct, and also act
But who will I cast as you?
I'm gonna find her, I'm gonna find her
It won't be easy but I don't care
I'll go to London, New York or Hollywood
I'll search the world for a girl
I want you
I don't want nobody else
I want you
I should have known it all along
I want you
Just tell me when and where
I want you
Why don't you just give me a call?
She went West so religiously
She took a vow
Not to return until she learned
What to do and how
I'm gonna find her, I'm gonna find her
It won't be easy but I don't care
I'll go to London, New York or Hollywood
I'll search the world for a girl
Exactly like you
Uh huh, I'd rather have you, oh yeah
I want you
I don't want nobody else
I want you
I should have known it all along
I want you
Right now, I need you right now
I want you
Oh come on little girl
I want you
Just tell me where and when
I want you
Why don't you just give me a call?
I want you
I don't want nobody else
I want you
I should have known it all along
I want you
Just tell me when and where
I want you
Why don't you just give me a call?
I want you, I want you, you you you
(Repeat to Coda)
If I could have what I want I'll just want what I've got
I told myself a million times that's the truth but it's not.
I could give you some lessons on how to cry all night
I know the hurting's only started and it might never stop
[Oh Angeline] you want some help from me now
Now since he left you alone.
Don't say it ain't so, [you betray people here]
It's not so long ago that
You were everything to me
You were everything to me
I don't know why but your pain
Is such a pleasure to see
So baby tell me everything.
So pardon me if I don't cry 'cause your love is on the shelf
After all, you're so good at looking out for yourself
You might hate me for saying so but that's all right
You can hate the whole world but it ain't gonna help.
[Oh, Angeline] you're only wasting your time
Looking for my sympathy
I hope you're satisfied ' cause I only wanna laugh
When I hear you cry
You were everything to me
You were everything to me
Now he's done it to you
Like you did it to me
So baby tell me everything
I guess you never thought that you'd be falling in love
You've lost everything that you're dreaming of
I can't let you go without letting you know
You were everything to me
You were everything to me
I don't know why but your pain
Is such a pleasure to see
So baby tell me everything
Baby tell me everything (everything to me)
Baby tell me everything
Someone did it to you like you did it to me
So baby tell me everything.
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
All mine, all mine
You can drink my whiskey
Get high all night
Play my guitar
Well, that's all right
Give you my money never get it back
Take what you want as a matter of fact
You can have anything, anything except
My girlfriends, my girlfriends
That's where I draw the line
My girlfriends, my girlfriends
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine
Oh yea
Promise her cocaine
Reds, whites and blues
If I catch you doin' that shit
I know you're gonna lose
Like a copy cat killer
Lacks originality
Yea, a lousy cliff irving
Tryin' to plagiarize me, hey
My girlfriends, my girlfriends
That's where I draw the line
My girlfriends, my girlfriends
All mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine
Well, one of these days, and it won't be long
Ain't the same old line from a Rock 'n' Roll song
If long tall Sally ever talked like that
You can take what you want as a matter of fact
You can have everything, anything except
My girlfriends, my girlfriends
Well, that's where I draw the line
My girlfriends, my girlfriends
She's mine, all mine, all mine, all mine, all mine
Don't try, steal my girlfriends
Ooh, I love her a lot, yea yea yea
My girlfriends, my girlfriends
It's all that I got
It's all that I got
It's all that I got, oh yea, oh yea
My girlfriends, my girlfriends
Don't try to steal my girlfriends
Don't steal my girlfriends
I love her a lot, yea
TIME WILL LET YOU KNOW
(Robin Zander/Brian O. Who)
LOOK AT YOU AND LOOK AT ME
NOW WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE
WE'RE SO AFRAID OF SOMETHING NEW
YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE
YOU TURN AROUND AND THEN IT'S GONE
YOU CAN'T BE SURE IF IT'S THE SAME OLD SONG
WE'RE SO AFRAID OF EVERYONE
AFRAID OF THE SUN
PLEASE LET THIS BE LOVE
A LOVE THAT IS SO TRUE
IT'S ALL UP TO ME
IT'S ALL UP TO YOU
TIME WILL LET YOU KNOW
WHATEVER WILL BE
WHATEVER YOU DO
TIME WILL LET YOU KNOW
YOU SEE YOUR FOLKS AND ALL THEIR FRIENDS
AIN'T IT FUNNY HOW THE STORY ENDS
YOU WONDER WHY YOU'RE HANGING ON
WHEN IT'S GONE
PLEASE LET THIS BE LOVE
A LOVE THAT IS SO TRUE
IT'S ALL UP TO ME
IT'S ALL UP TO YOU
TIME WILL LET YOU KNOW
WHATEVER WILL BE
WHATEVER YOU DO
TIME WILL LET YOU KNOW
REPEAT CHORUS
LOOK AT YOU AND LOOK AT ME
NOW WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE
WE'RE SO AFRAID OF SOMETHING NEW
YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE
We go back a long long way
And it seems like yesterdaay
When the words are spoken
Or whispered in your ear
Things have changed since we first met
You alone are more than I expect
But the good outweighs the bad
By 110 per cent
You take me to the top
You're everything I've got
You catch me if I'm falling
Oh all the way
You take me to the top
You catch me if I'm falling oh
Some things go in circles
Something's in the air
You know just what I'm feeling
You can make the difference
You know I really care
You take me to the top
You're everything I've got
You catch me if I'm falling Oh all the way
You take me to the top
You catch me if I'm falling
Oh ah ah Oh
If I could dream a dream
With a happy end
You'd be in it every night
Again and again
Right here by my side
You'd never go away
But I'm awake
I sing I say
You take me to the top
You're everything I've got
You catch me if I'm falling
Oh all the way
You take me to the top
No one believes me
Someone conceived me
A fluke in the night of obscurity
Played by millions simulcast by a few
A city no lights such a great view
It's all very strange it's the name of the game
(Chorus 1)
It's all the same it's never gonna change
It's the name of the game
Over and over and over again
Time after time after time
Over and over and over again
Love is the name of the game
Come around and see me analyze or analogy
I'll give you a clue what you really need
If things get bad then things can get worse
Remember ";Surrender"; remember the verse
It's all very strange it's the name of the game
It's all the same it's never gonna change
It's the name of the game
Over and over and over again
Time after time after time
Over and over and over again
Love is the name of the game
I say hold on tight
Say hey you're doin' it right
As I wish for a full dream flight
Night after night I'm a knight
Over and over and over and over
and over and over again
Time after time after time
Over and over and over and over
Love is the name of the game
And then it came to me
It's just a game to me
I could paint your picture in the sky tonight
Your lipstick on the moon it shines so bright
Baby it's full and white
Honey it's full tonight
(Chorus 1)
So kiss me red
Kiss me rogue
Kiss me rough
Kiss me smooth
Oh..
I could paint your picture in my room tonight
Your body's on my mind it's clear and bright
Oh but you're far away
And what I wouldn't pay
(Chorus 2)
To kiss you red
Kiss you rogue
Kiss you rough
Kiss you smooth
Oh..
It's black out
And I'm alone in the dark
But light a candle to replace your heart
What I wouldn't give to have you here in my bed
So kiss me red
Kiss me rogue
Kiss me rough
Kiss me smooth
Oh..
To kiss you red
Kiss you rogue
Kiss you rough
Kiss you smooth
Oh..
So kiss me red
Kiss me rogue
Kiss me rough
Kiss me smooth
Oh..
To kiss you red
Kiss you rogue
Kiss you rough
Kiss you smooth
Oh..
So kiss me red
Kiss me rogue
Kiss me rough
Kiss me smooth

I want be man
I want be man
I want be man
I want be man
I don't like living inside
This metal plastic shell
It's no way to treat your help
They'll tell you go to hell
I want be man
I want be man
I want be man
I want be man
Faster master
I've got better things which I can do
Hey I don't like livin' in this fleshy human shell
As much as I abuse it, it's really gone to hell
I want be man
I want be man
I want be man
I want be man
I'd rather be a robot
So I don't have to think
'Cause then I could be programmed
Where I don't have to dream
I'd rather be a man
Instead of a machine
Flesh and blood life and death
It's a mystery
Nothing to be programmed
Nothing is for sure
And least there's a reason
A reason for my life
I want be man
You want be me
I wanna live in your body (hey)
(Repeat to Coda)
Some people are very hard to shake awake
Some things are hard to define
Some lazy people've got haze on the brain
No motivation vacations holidays
You say you wanna change the world upside down
(Bridge)
Gotta go all the way
Start today
It's up to you to get it right
Gotta try gotta try
(Chorus)
It's up to you to get things started
It's up to you no no not half hearted
Take each and every day as if it is your last
It's up to you you've things to do
It's up to you
Some have an attitude of fool all the rest
Take it all have a ball don't accept second best
So Hollywood but it's really anywhere
I've got a feeling it's something in the air
It's much the same across the worls all around
It won't change much without our feet on the ground
(Bridge)
Gotta go all the way
Start today
It's up to you to get it right
Gotta try gotta try
(Chorus)
It's up to you to get things started
It's up to you no no not half hearted
Take each and every day as if it is your last
It's up to you you've things to do
It's up to you
Hands off attitude
What's that gonna prove
If you pass the test
Don't look back
Settle for the best Forget all the rest
Take it all have a ball
You deserve the best
It's up to you to get things started
It's up to you no no not half hearted
Take each and every day as if it is your last
It's up to you you've things to do

It's up to you to get things started
It's up to you no no not half hearted
Take each and every day as if it is your last
It's up to you you've things to do
Lonely days and lonely nights
Seeming so much longer with the phone lines
Torn between decisions wrong or right
Ooh I wish I knew the stars tonight
'Cause you could look around and see
The moving pictures of my mind's eye
(Chorus)
It's only love¡it's a miracle
It's a wonder
It's only love¡it's a miracle
There we meet at some forgotten point
On the streets of New York or was it London town
Maybe we were daydreaming out loud
Or maybe we nowhere
It doesn't matter now 'cause
You mean more to me than any hope or any dream
I know now
It's only love¡it's a miracle
It's a wonder
It's only love¡it's a miracle
When I say I miss you then I mean that I need you
When I say I need you then I mean that I miss you now
It's only love¡it's a miracle
It's a wonder
It's only love¡it's a miracle
It's only love¡it's a miracle
It's a wonder
It's only love¡it's a miracle
It's only love¡it's a miracle
It's a wonder
Some girls do Some girls don't
Don't mean type Don't mean smoke
Lay me down Can't seem to sleep
My mind's been thinkin' real deep
(Bridge 1)
All my thoughts are runnin wild Out of control-outta my mind
(Chorus)
'Cause good girls go to heaven Bad girls go everywhere
If I had my choice of women
I'd pick the ones that'd go anywhere
All good girls they go to heaven
All bad girls go everywhere they like
Late at night When she comes out
The lady moves Prowls the town
A perfect match Of looks and charm
Where she goes It's light and dark
She's so hot I burn my tongue When I kiss her lips she turns me on
Good girls go to heaven
Bad girls go everywhere
If I had my choice of women
I'd pick the ones that'd go anywhere
All good girls they go to heaven
All bad girls go everywhere they like
(Solo)
Made my choice made it well Had my pick of heaven or
Good girls go to heaven Bad girls go everywhere
If I had my choice of women I'd pick the ones that'd go anywhere
All good girls they go to heaven All bad girls go everywhere they like
Good girls they've got manners Bad girls got what matters
Good girls leave at home Bad girls come with the singer
Good girls go to heaven Bad girls go everywhere that they like
Sometimes I can tell early in the day
Sometimes I can sense in an uncanny way
When things aren't going right
It looks like just another lonely night
Wake me when it's over shake me when it's done
Maybe when the sun comes up I'll find a place to run
So don't lay there like a fool
'Cause all you have to do is call me
(Chorus)
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say you're lonely tonight
'Travel 'round the world seen a million girls
I know I've been around nothin' gets me down
'Cause there's someone out there just like you
Someone's out there just like me too
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say you're lonely tonight
Baby don't let it don't let it get ya
Just say the word and I'll be your cover
I'm gonna try to get there today
Call me and tell me
You don't need another day
Lonely night (Lonely tonight
Sometimes I can tell you don't have to say
Sometimes I can sense in an uncanny war
When things aren't going right
It looks like just another lonely
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight
Say you're lonely tonight
Well are you alone tonight
Or are you lonely tonight

You make my dreams come true
Tryin' to beat the clock
It never stops tickin' the time away
Tryin' to beat the clock it
Never stops, never stops night or day
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
And my dreams come true
Time is runnin' out of control, ooh
You make my dreams come true

Saturday at midnight
See you at the red light
Don't wanna be alone
Saturday at midnight
I can't wait for a call
It's just not my style
Been alone too long
But in a little while
When night closes in
And lights are gettin' bright
Makes it all worthwhile
Makes it all worthwhile tonight
Saturday at midnight
See you at the red light (bad scene, man)
Don't wanna be alone
Saturday at midnight
I work hard every day
Every day of my life
My reward is to make a better life
'Cause I live for the weekend
And what I wanna do
Is search for that someone
So my dreams come true
Saturday at midnight
See you at the red light (bad scene, man)
Don't wanna be alone
Saturday at midnight
There's a lot of things
That seem to go round
Like the world and the love and the fun
There's a lot of things
That seem to go round
But the girls and the love I get none
Saturday at midnight (I don't want to go home)
Saturday at midnight
I can't wait for a call
It's just not my style
Been alone too long
But in a little while
When night closes in
And lights are gettin' bright
Makes it all worthwhile
Makes it all worthwhile tonight
Saturday at midnight (Ha, ha, ha)
See you at the red light (bad scene, man)
Don't wanna be alone

I gave you just about the best years of my life
I might be lax on my views of the world
I can't explain the politics of your affairs
But there is one thing that I know and say each day
Oo la la la, oh oo la la la
Oo la la la, oh oo la la la
Life ain't so easy
I know you've heard it all before
When you stop movin'
There's always something more
Closed up in front of you
And closin' up in back
Don't you stop givin' up
When now you should attack, attack
Oo la la la, oh oo la la la
Oo la la la, oh oo la la la
Don't have a clue to know what's going on
You say you need some time to live alone
Tell me you're sorry so you say

Reputation is a fragile thing
Fame and money don't mean much to me
Oh, don't go change to prove the point
It doesn't matter, oh no
We've had our problems and we've had our fun
Did a lot of livin' on the run
Oh don't go cover up the truth
Cause we're together, oh yeah
One on one, one on one
It's you and me against the world
It's one on one
Head is spinning and your mouth is dry
Happiness you couldn't find or buy
Oh, ever want something so bad you could taste it?
Made the deadline and you passed the test
Sabotage seems safer than success
Put it off until tomorrow
I've hear it all before
But it's one on one, one on one
It's you and me against the world
It's one on one
I need some time to think the whole thing over
You say you want to save the world alone
I want to taste and test the waters with you
It's not so easy when you're on your own
Don't lie to me is all I ask of you
No excuses I just want the truth
Reputation is a fragile thing
I know you know it, well it's
One on one, one on one
It's you and me against the world
It's one on one
One on one, one on one
It's you and me against the world
It's one on one

You say jump, I said how high
You say no, I don't ask why
You treat me like a fool, like you do
Kick me when I'm down and out
Out with you I wish I was
Instead I'm sittin' all alone tonight, well
You've got a one track mind
Wish you could just read mine
I hope you will in time
You say jump, I said how high
Love you but I don't know why
Don't say no, not tonight
You call me or I'll call you
Just as long as we get through
I'll do anything for you tonight
Second verse
All dressed up no place to go
I say yes and you say no
What's goin' on
I really want to know
You've got a one track mind

You say jump, I said how high
Love you but I don't know why
Don't say no, not tonight
You call me or I'll call you
Just as long as we get through

I've loved you from the start
You only broke my heart
I think I'm losing my mind
I've felt this way for years
I'm the one who really cares
Don't leave me here on my own
You say jump, I said how high
Love you but I don't know why
Don't say no, not tonight
I've loved you from the start
You only broke my heart

Kick me when I'm down and out

Hey wait a minute
You're a little lost
Things keep on changing
And so does the cost
Of doin' business with yourself

I won't take no for an answer
I won't take no, no, no, no

Leave me alone
Today kids don't grow up
They just grow alone

Oh, a language all our own
We always knew the latest dances
But we liked old-fashioned love
Now something seems the matter

What I want to believe
Nobody needs
To do my thinkin' for me
I know the score, I'm always out of line
It's as if I was born in the wrong place in time
And nobody understands just what's in my mind
But when I face the light
Somehow it all seems right
(Don't) You know it feels like
Heaven's falling
Down on me
And I can hear the
Angels calling
Calling me
Speak your mind
You know you've got the right
You're not afraid
You're goin' with me tonight
Everybody stops, they whisper and stare
";Cause tonight we're free to do
The things they wouldn't dare
But they will never know
The little secrets we share
And when you squeeze my hand
I know you understand
(Don't) You know it feels like
Heaven's falling
Down on me
And I can hear the
Angels calling
Calling me
In a world only for lovers and fools
Schemers and dreamers
Who don't follow the rules
We gotta run
Our legs are still young
We gotta run
Until our heaven comes
And when we face the light
Somehow it all seems right
(Don't) You know it feels like
Heaven's falling
Down on me

Didn't do it, I'm no enemy

Oh no
Don't you make our love a crime
Please don't make our love a crime
If you do we'll all regret it in time
So don't you make our love a crime

I'm still alive and breathin' free
I wanna be punished with you

You gave me a fatal bite
I wanna spend my time with you, you, you

Look at me, I appear in the night
Look at me, I'm made up of lights
Look at me, I am really a sight
A sight to behold
To hold with your eyes
Look at me, I can move like you
Look at me, I can zoom in on you
Look at me, I can...and scream
I can make you laugh, I can make you scream
3-D, the more you look
The more you'll see
3-D, the more you
The closer I'll see you
Look at me, I'm out of control
Look at me
You can look down my throat
Look at me, but can't out just me
I'm mind, I'm matter on the video screen
Look at me, ooh, the reds and greens
Look at me, all the colors so real
Look at me, I'll make you laugh
And I'll make you scream
I'm mind, I'm matter on the video screen

She said that she's got something else on her mind
I'm spending my money, but I'm wasting time
It looks to me like the end of the line
Well, she plays both sides and she's making me choose
It's heads, she wins, and tails I lose
Each time I call, it's another excuse
I thought I was finally doin' everything right
Now it looks like I'm the one left lonely tonight
I picked the wrong side of love
And I wound up on the losin' end
The wrong side of love
Now I'm starting all over again
She makes me feel like I'm out of control
She comes on hot but she turns ice cold
Her light says stop when I'm ready to go
She set me up, now she's puttin' me down
Sometimes I feel like a face in the crowd
One day I'm in, the next day I'm out
I picked the wrong side of love
Right place, wrong time
The wrong side of love
Well honey, point me in the right direction
I picked the wrong side of love
Is there a bad side to love?
I picked the wrong side of love
The wrong side of love
You push hard, you stop my circulation
I know you really need a physical relation
We may not be a perfect combination
You need your love, I need my mental stimulation
If I'm not there, defend my reputation
Well, that don't mean that there's a real negotiation
Take a longer look, this could be provincy invasion
What makes you think you've got that fascination?
I need space, oh, oh
Come back some other time and place
I need some more space
I need some
I know you're burnin' with anticipation
Hold on, here comes your education
Make sure it's love not just infatuation
Tell me why you always lead me to that destination
No mercy
In the midnight hush, the restless hours between dark and light
In dreams we come together underneath the cover of the night
You're holding out, but I'm holding on
Can't wait until your resistance is gone
No mercy, accept no defeat
No mercy, 'til you're here with me
Now the pressure's on
You can run away but you can't hide
You might as well surrender, the walls are closing in on every side
I'm getting closer, now, there's no escape
Victory is written all over my face
No mercy, I won't give in No!
No mercy, 'til you let me in
I won't take no for an answer
I won't let go
No mercy, until you let me in
No mercy, no, I'll never give in
No mercy, I won't let you go No!
No mercy, and I want you to know, oh
No mercy
I don't need no money, honey
Fortune and fame
'Cause I got all the riches, baby
That one man can claim
So take off your coat and close the door
Forget about your pride
I'm not afraid of falling down
Or staying up all night
You're gonna see it my way now
Don't try to bring me down
My life's a circus, an insane chain of circumstances
I never had a lot to lose
I never let it slow me down
I never had a lot of love now, honey
Never had a lot to lose
I can't explain the time it takes
To make you understand
I know you'll get to like it
If you only get the chance
I hope I get some time tonight
To see you comin' 'round
What can I give you in return
For one night on the town
(CHORUS)
But not till daylight, not till daylight, not to daylight
daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight, daylight
I tried to tell you
It's a pain you can't hide
My life's a circus
An isane chain of circumstances
I never had a lot of love
I never had too much money
I never let it slow me down now, honey
I never had a lot to lose

It wasn't easy- it was hard as hell
You didn't get luck in a wishin' well
Never worked so hard- had so much pain
Wouldn't change for anything
Learned love from a movie screen
He was tough, she was wild at fifteen
Quit school and had no dreams
Wasn't going very far
Then he got religion and she got a god
It's on her back and it's in his job
And it costs lots of money, honey- oh, no
Breakdown nearly every day
Shoulda known- couldn't get away
Got lucky with the girl next door
She was lonely and didn't care
She was young, she was dark, she was fair
Wrapped herself around you with her stare
You'd explode if she would touch you there
Touch you there- touch you there
Tonight, tonight-tonight-tonight
You're on top of the world
On top of the world and you can't
Get any higher
You're on top of the world
You're on top of the world tonight

one minute the back side of midnight it's me Captain Gonzo ready to roll hot wax anything you want to hear
all night its a balmy 73 degrees in Fog City, 71 in the Valley 80 in Santa Cruz (?), but remember if you snooze you lose
I'm gonna hang with you, i'll crank it on...so let me know what you want to hear phone lines are open now
you say it you KNOW i'm gonna play it and be ready to win when i tell you to call in and whatever you do
remember the phrase that pays puts your brain on vacation and let your toes take over keep your pedal to the metal
I'll be back in sixty seconds, in the meantime go with it, go for it, go nuts, go completely wild.....

Well I saw you today and realized
How I missed my peace of mind
I feel your breath in my ear
But late at night it's you I always think about
That little girl inside of you I once knew
I should have known better
Still the smell of you was on my face
But you were too busy
To notice me last night
Now I can't take it alone
I can't make it alone
I can't take it
I can't make it alone
Oh no, oo, oh no
Then I tell myself I'll put you down
Don't wanna see your face around
Don't call me up anymore
When I hear your voice it's in my ear
You're kissin' on the phone
It makes it all come clear
Now I can't take it alone
I can't make it alone
I can't take it
I can't make it alone
Oh no, oh, oh no

It's the way of the world...
Remember you were in school and I followed you home.
I remember, didn't think I existed but we're comin' together right now.
I've been runnin', I've been hidin', it's the way of the world.
You say it's over, but the world keeps turnin' 'round.
Remember, I knew I'd be good for you.
No one better remember, really meant what I said, wanna be your lover right now.
I've been runnin', I've been hidin', it's the way of the world.
You say it's over, but the world keeps turnin' 'round.
World goes round, life goes on, and on, and on.
You say it's over, but the world keeps turnin' round.
It's the way of the world.
Remember, you were at work and then Friday at five, I remember, felt like a pawn, was I dead or alive?
I remember, thought no one could hear me, I was goin' insane.
I remember, it was a real fine line, now you've changed my life around.
I've been runnin', I've been hidin', it's the way of the world.
You say it's over, but the world keeps turnin' 'round.
World goes round, life goes on, and on, and on.
World goes 'round, (I've been runnin')
World is round (I've been hidin')
Life goes on and on and on ((It's the way of the world).
(Repeat to fade)
Well you know I can be found
Sitting all alone
If you can't come around
At least please telephone
But don't be cruel
To a heart that's true
Baby, if I made you mad
For something I might have said
Please forget the past
The future's bright ahead
But don't be cruel
To a heart that's true
I don't want no other love
Baby, it's just you I'm thinkin' of
Don't stop thinkin' of me
Don't make me feel this way
Come on over and love me
You know I want you to stay
But don't be cruel
To a heart that's true
Let's walk up to the preacher
Let's say ";Hey, I do";
And then I know you'll want me
And you'll know I want you too
(CHORUS)
Why should we be apart?
Words and Music by Antoine Domino and Dave Bartholomew
You made me cry when you said good-bye.
Ain't that a shame...my tears fall like rain
Ain't that a shame...you're the one to blame.
You broke my heart, now we're apart.
Ain't that a shame...my tears fall like rain
Ain't that a shame...you're the one to blame.
Ah, yes you are,
Farewell, good-bye, although I'll cry.
Ain't that a shame...my tears fall like rain
Ain't that a shame...you're the one to blame.
Ah!
You made me cry when you said good-bye.
Ain't that a shame...my tears fall like rain
Ain't that a shame...you're the one to blame.

All right, I saw the writing on the wall.
All night, I saw the writing on the wall,
I saw the writing on the wall.
Lo and behold, heard it on the radio.
It was a long time comin', but it sounds so sweet, Come on, man, get off my back.
All right, I saw the writing on the wall.
All night, I saw the writing on the wall,
I saw the writing on the wall.
In the Midwest and in the East.
Canada, Southwest, around the world,
L.A., Tokyo, sounds so sweet,
Come on honey, get on your feet.
All right, I saw the writing on the wall.

It was a long time comin', but it sounds so sweet, Come on, man, get off my back.
Saw it at the airport, it was on T.V.
Read it in a magazine, runnin' down the street.
Makes no sense, but I hope it's gonna last,
the next big thing, I really gotta laugh.
Worked and slaved and played like hell,
Everybody's goin' crazy, you're the last to know.
Can't explain it, still a joke to me,
Maybe I'm naive, 'cause it's so plain to see.
It's right in front of your face, man.
It's right in front of your face, man.
Played like hell, whoa!
Played like hell, whoa!
I can hear you laughing
You're a million miles away or you're here
I will never leave you
But I'm a million miles away and I'm near
I'm the thoughts you're thinking
But you're a lifetime away from your home or you're here
I, I can see you crying
You're a million miles away or you're here
Look at me like I look at you
Think of me like I think of you
Speak to me like I spoke to you
Dream of me, how I dream of you
I can hear you thinking
You're a million thoughts away
I'm the dreams you're dreaming
I'm a million dreams away or I'm near
We can go down slowly like the rain
I could leave and be with you again, oh

Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Ambition? Ha!
If all I've heard is true,
There's nothin' much I can do
To change the world, it's irreversible.
But in what it lacks,
It's got a taste that smacks of somethin' irresistable.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Submission? Yes!
Now I won't name names, and a secret's a secret,
But a hint's a hint or a clue.
You really wanna know, you really wanna go,
There's only two things you got to do.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.
Gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell, gonna raise hell.

Tell you a story not a little white lie
Wasn't Long Tall Sally it was no surprise
That's right - tell me that's right
A tough act to follow not too good in your shoes
A whole lotta shakin' was terrible news
That night - tell me that's right
The band was singin' and playin' a tune
Love comes a-tumblin' down, oh yeah yeah
All shook up and bent out of shape
Wasn't Johnny B. Goode but it sounded great
That night - tell me that's right
From the cabaret to the highway of hell
Had a monkey on his back it was easy to tell
That night - tell me that's right
The band was singin' and playin' a tune
Love comes a-tumblin' down oh yeah yeah
The band was singin' and playin' a tune
Love comes a-tumblin' down oh yeah!
(V.O.) I'm wishing to live longer aided by the supreme healing force of music
It most definitely overcomes all weakening aspects of the body
I've felt quite lost and distraught without those wonderful vinyl productions
I'm convinced it's an addiction, too. I feel just great again
[Band, get ready]
When you see the train come
Then you'll know what to do
A tough act to follow not too good in your shoes
That's right - tell me that's right
[Love came] a-stumblin' and a-tumblin' down
Not a pretty picture when the body was found
That night - tell me that's right
The band was singin' and playin' a tune
(Love comes a-tumblin')
Tough act to follow not too good in your shoes
(Love comes a-tumblin')
You see the train come you know what to do

For eternal youth from those Swiss docs.
He's thirty but he feels like sixteen

I am what I am (just a little bit of information)
I do it alone (you just give me idle conversation)

It's been a long time, baby
It's been a long time comin'
I don't like it
It's been on my mind, baby
It's not the same anymore
Let's face it, we've changed, yeah yeah
Don't stand there laughin'
'Cause I'm here cryin'
Don't have no pity, baby
'Cause my sun's never shinin'
And don't think I ever think about you with another man
And don't think I care about you, honey
You just don't understand
That's why I say
Can't stop it but I'm gonna try
Can't stop it but I'm gonna try
Can't stop it but I'm gonna try

It's been a long time, baby
It's been a long time comin'
I don't like it
It's been on my mind, baby
It's not the same anymore
Let's face it, we've changed, yeah yeah
Here comes that feelin'
That feelin' never stops
From the first time that I met you
Till the last time that we talked
And some days I don't think I'll make it through
I'd feel better if you felt it too
But don't have no pity, pity baby
You just don't understand
That's why I say
Can't stop it but I'm gonna try
Can't stop it but I'm gonna try

I don't like it
It's been on my mind, baby
It's not the same anymore
Let's face it, we've changed, yeah yeah
High priest of rhythmic noise
Living inside of me
I have been goin' round in circles
And I've considered first degree
Just a singer in a mind choir
Lives on harmony
If the song don't change the choir won't sing
Won't sing the same song forever
It's such a pity
What's a poor boy to do?
It's such a pity
What's a poor boy to do?
You look strange, that's what I like
You look strange like me
Fit to be tied, a little bedtime story
Next position, please
Just a singer in a mind choir
Lives on harmony
If the song don't change the choir won't sing
Won't sing the same song forever
It's such a pity what's a poor boy to do?
It's such a pity what's a poor boy to do?
It's such a pity what's a poor boy to do?
When the high priest of rhythmic noise is in there with you
Don't give up, get out, get down
(Forever is a long long time)
Don't stand up, shut up, sit down
(You're strange, that's what I like)
Don't make a move till you hear that sound
(I'm just a singer in a mind choir)
Don't give up, get out, get down
(High priest of rhythmic noise)
Just a singer in a mind choir
And live on old harmony
If the songs don't change the choir won't sing
Won't sing the symphony
Forever is a long long time
If you get the third degree
I'm a [Incomprehensible] little tiny plastic pills
From my little plastic brain
It's such a pity what's a poor boy to do?
It's such a pity what's a poor boy to do?
It's such a pity what's a poor boy to do?
When the high priest of rhythmic noise is inside of you
Don't give up, get out, get down
(Forever is a long long time)
Don't stand up, shut up, sit down
(You're strange, that's what I like)
Don't make a move till you hear that sound
(I'm just a singer in a mind choir)
Don't give up, get out, get down
(High priest of rhythmic noise)
Don't give up, get out, get down
(Forever is a long long time)
Don't stand up, shut up, sit down
(You're strange, that's what I like)
Don't make a move till you hear that sound
(I'm just a singer in a mind choir)
Don't give up, get out, get down

Hush little darling, don't you cry
Daddy's comin' home, comin' home tonight
No bed of roses for your head, for you
You see no future, it's all in the past
This is a nightmare, won't be your last
It's hard to admit, it's hard to admit, you're that blind
Mommy and Daddy don't see eye to eye
Mommy and Daddy don't see when we cry
Mommy and Daddy they don't understand
What's wrong with this picture, is right in their hands?
Sleeping with an angel
Woke up with a monster
Sleeping with an angel
Woke up with a monster
Hush little darling, don't be long
Momma's little angel can't do nothin' wrong
No bed of roses in your head, for you
Who'll dry your tears when you cry?
Daddy's comin' home just in time
Will he be the one to make it, to help make it right?
'Cause Mommy and Daddy don't see eye to eye
Mommy and Daddy make each other cry
Sleeping with an angel
Woke up with a monster
Sleeping with an angel
Woke up with a monster
Not sleeping with an angel
Not sleeping with an angel

If the light is out and been sitting pretty
Scream that pitiful scream
When the light is out will be blown and willing
Better watch were I lean
When you gaze into a crystal ball
You’ll see nothing’s gonna change at all
You’ll see nothing’s gonna happen over night
So please
When the lights are out
When I hear you sigh
Let me feel your warm breath on my neck
It makes me hit the sky
When the lights are out
When I hear you sigh
Let me feel your warm breath on my neck
It makes me hit the sky
When your will is burned you can blow me over
Blow me beautiful blow
If a nail is stuck you can turn me under
Wind up ready go
When you gaze into a crystal ball
You’ll see nothing’s gonna change at all
You’ll see nothing’s gonna happen over night
So please
When the lights are out
When I hear you sigh
Let me feel your warm breath on my neck
It makes me hit the sky
When the lights are out
When I hear you sigh
Let me feel your warm breath on my neck
It makes me hit the sky
When the lights are out
When you gaze into a crystal ball
You’ll see nothing’s gonna change at all
You’ll see nothing’s gonna happen over night
So please
When the lights are out
When I hear you sigh
Let me feel your warm breath on my neck
It makes me hit the sky
……………….
When the lights are out
You didn't know what you were lookin' for
Till you heard the voices in your ear
Hey, it's me again
Plain, you see again
Please, can I see you every day?
I'm a fool again
I fell in love with you again
Please, can I see you every day?
You didn't know what you were lookin' for
Till you heard the voices in your ear
You didn't know what you were lookin' for
Till you heard the voices in your ear
Words don't come out right
I tried to say it, oh, so right
I hope you understand my meaning
Hey, it's me again
I'm so in love with you again
Please, can I see you every day?
You didn't know what you were lookin' for
Till you heard the voices in your ear
You didn't know what you were lookin' for
Till you heard the voices in your ear
I remember every word you said
I remember voices in my head
I remember every word you said
(I hear your voice)
Your voices
Cool voices
Warm voices
It was just what I needed to
(Words don't seem right)
Cool voices
Warm voices
Your voices
But it's just what I needed for
(Love is the word)
Warm voices
Your voices
Cool voices
It was just what I needed to
(I hear your voice)
Your voices
Cool voices
Warm voices
It was just what I needed to
Just what I needed to, just what I needed

Till you heard the voices in your ear
You didn't know what you were lookin' for
Till you heard the voices in your ear
You didn't know what you were lookin' for
Another night slowly closes in
And I feel so lonely
Touching heat freezing on my skin
I pretend you still hold me
I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep
I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you
I can't believe you're gone
You were the first, you'll be the last
Wherever you go, I'll be with you
Whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon
Remember after the fire, after all the rain
I will be the flame, I will be the flame
Watching shadows move across the wall
It feels so frightening
I wanna run to you, I wanna call
But I've been hit by lightening
Just can't stand up for fallin' apart
Can't see through this veil across my heart, over you
You'll always be the one
You were the first, you'll be the last
Wherever you go, I'll be with you
Whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon
Remember after the fire, after all the rain
I will be the flame, I will be the flame
I'm going crazy, I'm losing sleep
I'm in too far, I'm in way too deep over you
You'll always be the one
You were the first, you'll be the last
Wherever you go, I'll be with you
Whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon
Remember after the fire, after all the rain
I will be the flame, I will be the flame
Whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Wherever you go, I'll be with you
And whatever you want, I'll give it to you
Pay some attention

Stiff competition, if I go up you take me higher
Stiff competition, and when I'm down you take me higher
Stiff competition all over the world
I screw you, you screw me, they screw us
Here we go again
Alright, we had so much fun
When we're together
When we're together
When we're together, now
I looked hard in your eyes
Oh, was it love at first sight?
It took me minutes, you're still waiting
Waiting for your turn
Your turn, it won't be long
Stiff competition, I worked hard every day of my life
Stiff competition, get it up, you take me higher
Stiff competition all over the world
The more I get, the more I like it
The bigger they are, the harder they fall again
Alright, we had so much fun
When we're together

I looked hard in your eyes
Oh, was it love at first sight?
It took me minutes, you're still waiting
Waiting for your turn
Your turn, it won't be long
Ahh, oh, no
Stiff competition

Take want you want
Giving back a steely stare
Eyes black as night
Feel a shiver in the air
Sorry boy
Sorry boy
Time everlasting
As a mother's blood runs cold
Blast everyone
There's no forgiveness
When your soul is sold
Sorry boy
Sorry boy
Sorry boy
No one will be there
To pick you up if you should fall
Burned every bridge
Your only friends
The shadow on the wall
Sorry boy
Sorry boy
Sorry boy
Sorry boy
Sorry boy
Sorry boy

If I had my mother, she would never lose her grace

Oh, if I had a mom
If I had a love, I would shelter it from a broken heart
If I had a heart, I'd surrender it to my love

If I had my dad, he'd be so kind
If I had a dad, he would tell me I was good
Now woman
The scent of a woman
A man don't add up to much, next to a woman
A man can't ever forget the taste of a woman
A man is half the test, a man is half the best
A man can't understand the reasons why
A man's just a day in the life of a woman
Just a few minutes a night to a woman
See what a woman can do to the man inside of you
It's more than the sum of the sun and the moon
Well a man is a man is a hell of a man
A man ain't a man in a one night stand
A man just don't stack up next to a woman
A man can't see what a woman can do
A man is no man hiding next to you
A man don't add up to much next to a woman
Ooh the scent of a woman
The world would never be, except for a woman
It's hard for a man to see what makes a woman
Even harder to impress, 'cause she expects the best
She never makes it easy to pass the test
Well a man is a man is a hell of a man
A man ain't a man in a one night stand
A man just won't stack up next to a woman
A man can't do what a woman can do
A man is not a man lying next to you
And man will just give up next to a woman
Oh yeah here she comes now
(Here she comes now, she comes now, here she comes now)
Here she comes now
(Here she comes now, she comes now, here she comes now)
Well a man is a man is a hell of a man
A man ain't a man in a one night stand
A man just won't stack up next to a woman, no no no
A man can't do what a woman can do
A man is a man if he can get to you
All a man wants to do is get to a woman, yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
No one's going to give it away.
They make it hard for the people today.
To get what you want, you've got to do it yourself.
Don't be afraid to drive the nail in the wood.
Or drink the bottle if it tastes so good.
You'll go the distance. You never thought that you could.
Reach out and take it.
Reach out and ta-ta take it.
Reach out and take it.
Reach out and ta-ta-ta take it.
Reach out and take it. Oh, yeah!
Cough up the cash when you go over and over.
Before the old one's gone, you've got a new owner.
You need assistance when your head's in the clouds.
You could live easy if life stood still.
You could be faking and breaking and taking it all.
But then you know you're gonna fall.
Reach out and take it.
Reach out and ta-ta take it.
Reach out and take it.
Reach out and ta-ta-ta take it.
Reach out and take it.
Don't have to take it so hard.
Don't have to take it so, so hard.
Don't have to take it so hard.
Don't have to take it so HARD!
( solos )
Reach out and take it.
Reach out and ta-ta take it.
Reach out and take it.
Reach out and ta-ta-ta take it.
Reach out and take it.
Reach out. Reach out.
Take what you want.
Reach out. Reach out.
If I ever get back home again
If I ever get back to you

Maybe I'm just colorblind I can see just fine
Sorry I'm just blind around you
All I want is you, all I want is you
If I ever get back home tonight

Sorry I'm just blind around you
All I want is you, all I want is you
Oh, oh, oh, oh Candy why did you do it?

You won't be comin', you won't be comin' around no more
You, you won't be comin' around no more, oh no
Oh Candy why did you do it?
Jump in my love car, don't have to go very far
Just far enough to show you a thing or two
I can really swing the best of everything
And I want to have a thing with you
High roller, what I buy is mine
And I always get the things that I choose
My, my, my, such a high high high roller
I know he's gone away and left you
I'll take real good care of you
I'm in the mood for love, you're all, I'm thinking of
I'll make you feel alright, when we're alone
I can really swing, the best of everything
And I want to have a thing with you
High roller, what I buy is mine

Like the girls and the love I get numb
Lovin', lovin', I never seem to get it
But my mind is always thinkin' 'bout lovin'
Lovin', lovin', I never seem to get it
I took your photographs, I threw them all away
I put your calls on hold 'cause I got nothin' to say
Hangin' on to you, that was my first mistake
Yeah, yeah
But some things you can never let go
Some things you can never let go
You took the credit cards, you took the bank account
You took my sanity, you've got me all drawn out
I'd give it all away to get you off my mind
Yeah, yeah
But some things you can never let go
Some things you should never let 'em show
Some things you can never let go
Let go, let go
Don't keep draggin' it out
Let go, let go
You're no good for me now
How much more can I take?
I can't spend my whole life in the dark
Now you gotta let go of my heart
I took your photographs, I threw them all aside
Forget your so called friends, I kissed 'em all goodbye
If I walk away, would you be satisfied?
Yeah, yeah

Why do you do what you do to me?
Why can't you say what you wanna say?
Is it not worth investigating?

Why do you go when you wanna stay?
How will I know what you mean to say?
Undoubtedly I'm all over you
It's not that easy, baby
It's not that hard to tell

Would you like to, would you like to
Thank you very much
I got a one track mind
I got a twisted heart
I need a lesson in love
I'm right on time
For tonight's the night
I need your love
Ooh yeah
Caught in the act
Had no alibi
No reason why I let you down
Stabbed in the back
Though it hurt I let you go
Will you take me back
What was right or wrong
It's alright to put the blame on me
For after all blame it on my last affair
It's alright, it takes two to make it love
Love can be just a four letter word
A four letter word
Got a one track mind
Got a twisted heart
Need a lesson in love
I'm right on time
For tonight's the night
I need your love
Day turns to night
I was wrong an' you were right
I felt Mr. Hyde not the D.J.
Sometimes I'm not myself
Must be somebody else
To jeopardize your love
What went wrong or why?
It's alright to put the blame on me
For after all blame it on my last affair
It's alright, it takes two to make it love
Love can be just a four letter word
Got a one track mind
Got a twisted heart
Nothing less
Nothing less
It just fits
Never quits
Nothing feels
Feels so great
You amaze me
Everyday you make me crazy
It’s a chance
Tommy lied
Kiss comes first
Feels so right
In this life
In my world
You amaze me
Everyday you make me crazy
Everyday you make me crazy
Everyway you amaze me
Everyway you amaze me
Everyday you make me crazy
Everyday you make me crazy
Ooh ooo ooo
Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head
I'm gonna live on a mountain
Way down under in Australia
It's either that or suicide
It's such a strange strain on you
Ooh, I got a mind
Over you it's not the first time
Ooh, I got a mind
Rainbow's crawlin' on a midday sun
But I've been lucky you're the only one
Sunday's callin', you're the number one
It's such a strange strain on you
Ooh, you think of Jesus Christ
You walk on water but don't bet your life
All you walk is a fine line
It's such a strange strain on you
Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head
Too many people want to save the world
Another problem, is a boy or girl?
Some say, "The weekend is the only world"
It's such a strange strain on you
Ooh, I've got a mind
Over you, it's not the first time
All you walk is a fine line
It's such a strange strain on you
Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head
Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head
Downed, downed out of my head
'Round, 'round out of my head
Downed, downed out of my head
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm begging you to beg me
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'll shine up the old brown shoes
Put on a brand-new shirt
I'll get home early from work
If you say that you love me
Didn't I, didn't I
Didn't I see you crying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I
Didn't I see you crying
Feeling all alone without a friend
You know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I
Didn't I see you crying
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm begging you to beg me
I'll shine up the old brown shoes
Put on a brand-new shirt
I'll get home early from work
If you say that you love me
Didn't I, didn't I
Didn't I see you crying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I
Didn't I see you crying
Feeling all alone without a friend
You know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I
Didn't I see you crying
Feeling all alone without a friend
You know you feel like dying
Oh, didn't I, didn't I
Didn't I see you crying
I want you to want me
I need you to need me
I'd love you to love me
I'm begging you to beg me
I want you to want me
I want you to want me
I want you to want me
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
So you want to believe
Everything that you read
And you think that you're makin' the grade
(And) just when you're getting it made
You're still in love with her
She'd love you to kiss her
Hopin' you'll miss her
By takin' your mind off the load
Just when you're ready to go
You turn your back on her
You just got your mind on the things ahead
At last you're gonna be free
You'll only miss her
Just after you kiss her
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
So you turn on the smiles
'Cause you think of the time
And nobody knows who you are
You don't think you'll get very far
I don't even know your name
At last they accept you
In case you go next year
And ask you to reach for the sky
And just when you're ready to die
They turn their back on you
So they put you on ice
In survival hotel
And wish you would die from the cold
When all you want is a night alone
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing the night away
Dancing, and the song you sing
Dancing, every move you make
Dancing, makes my body go
Dancing, right across the floor
Dancing
Dancing
Every day is a darker day
It’s always gonna be that way
One step closer to mine
I know it’s not respectable
But it is the best of all
One step closer
Relax your mind
It really dosn't matter if the Heavens is
gonna rain or shine
You’re better of blind
If the lover don’t find
Makes you one step closer to mine
Closer
One step closer
One step closer
Relax your mind
It really dosn't matter if the Heavens is
gonna rain or shine
You’re better of blind
If the lover don’t find
Clock strikes ten it's a Saturday night
Got money in my pocket and it feels allright
Not stayin' home gonna stay out late
Gotta hear some rockin' music and it feels just great
Clock strikes twelve on a Saturday night
All the creeps are sleepin' all the cools in sight
All the kings and queens, they're out tonight
Lookin' for some action 'til I feel allright
Imagine what we're doin' tonight
You really got me goin' tonight
Imagine what we're doin' tonight
I'm crazy for some action tonight
Clock strikes two out all night
All my money's spent but that's allright
Not goin' home gonna stay out late
Get ready for some action want some action tonight
(Repeat 3)
Clock stikes four I want some more
Everybody's layin' on the floor
Not goin' home gonna stay out late
Gotta hear that rockin' music it feels allright
(Repeat 3)
Gonna get down
Gonna get on down
Gonna get down
Gonna get on down
(Repeat 6 three times)
(drum solo)
It was a masquerade at Mardi Gras
That was the only trip that I recall
Every time I turned around at all
There was you
Some days are easier said than done
Always expecting something's wrong
I'd rather live alone than drag this on
Take your time, please lay your hands on me
Don't wanna be alone, oh no
A mask behind the face and then you're gone
Oh yeah, comes a time when you're better off alone, you're on your own
I've got a kaleidoscope of memories
Visions of you locked up inside of me
Can't you see
We once collided like a broken wheel
So undecided what was real
Maybe a crash somehow has sex appeal
Whatever turns you on
Take your time, please lay your hands on me
Don't wanna be alone, oh no
A mask behind a face and then you're gone
Oh yeah, comes a time when you're better off alone
One down, one to go
Oh no, playin' in a carnival your time is gone
One down, one to go
Oh no, playin' in a carnival, you're all alone
One down, one to go
Goin' to a party,
Meet me on after school.
Well we're goin to a place
Where the jive is really cool.
And if the band stops a playin'
There's a jukebox down the hall.
And with your blue dress on, your folks all gone.
You're sure to give the guys a ball.
CHORUS:
Get that real guitar boy shakin',
I'm a California man,
Dance right on till the floors are breakin'
I'm a California man.
Well I rocked my mamma so bad
This a woman's she’s a making me mad.
Well I don't care if her legs start aching,
I'm a California man.
(from 2nd chorus on repeat last line 2x)
I'm a California man.
Oh my legs start to shiver
When I hear you call my name.
Well, my knees keep a knockin,
And my bow tie's bustin' out
When my feet start to fly,
An' my jeans slung way down low.
You know I’m back on my heels and it's making me feel
Like the king of rock n' roll
Chorus
Solo
Repeat 1st Verse
Ooh what you fell into
It's really nothin' new
Well it's the same thing every day
I'm in the wrong place at the wrong time
With what I do and say
I've tried and tried to right my wrongs
And turn 'em all around
Turn 'em around, turn 'em around, turn 'em around
Chorus
*busted
Busted for what I did
I didn't think it so wrong
Busted
Busted for what I did
I didn't think it so wrong
Busted
Busted for what I did
I didn't think it so wrong
I didn't, I didn't think it so wrong, well
Well I made a big mistake
But baby that's the breaks
I can't erase what's done is done
Don't have the best of luck
I think enuff's enuff
And my mind is on the run
Time to go, time to show
We'll turn it around
Turn it around, turn it around, turn it around
* repeat
Now I'm faced with another mistake
Every step I take, and every move I make
Face to face, another disgrace
Face to face, but that's the breaks
Wouldn't trade place
To see the look on your face
Tell me where you've been
You've got to keep it in
And baby, please don't give it up
I'm gonna be with you
Deep inside of you
I'll never give you up
I've tried and tried
To be so strong
An turn it all around
Turn it around, turn it around, turn it around
* repeat x3
Busted
Every night
Caught up on the same old dream
I hear your broken heart
Crumbling down and haunting me
And everyday
Try to tell myself it ain't so hard
But then I hear your name
And it feels like a grip around my heart
'till I change the way you feel
'till I change the world
So help me girl
I'll show you wounds can heal
Chorus
* tell 'ya what I'm gonna do
I'll be comin' back for you
I'll move the mountains
Part the sea
Anything for you
I'll be back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
Forget that girl
She could never take your place
It's hard enough
When you look at me that way
I know I was caught red-handed
I wouldn't blame you if you twist the knife
I swear I've come to my senses
Tell me what to do
Anyday I'll make it right
I've got to change the way you feel
If I have to I'll change the world
So help me girl
I'll beg borrow and steal
If that's what it takes
* repeat
Back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
At 't-till make you believe me
I'm prepared to make any sacrifice
The shadow of our love keeps gettin' bigger
Without your love I'll sure die
Chorus
Tell you what I'm gonna do
I keep comin' back for you
I'll move the mountains
Part the sea
Anything for you
I'll be back 'n blue back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
So help me girl
Beg borrow and steal
If that's what it takes
I'll be back 'n blue back 'n blue
I'm prepared to make any sacrifice
Back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
More and more I been thinkin' 'bout love
Love ain't all I been thinkin' of
Some people do and some people don't
Some people will and say, "They won't"
But my baby loves to rock
And my baby loves to roll
My baby loves to all night long
My baby loves to rock
More and more I'm thinkin' 'bout s-s-sex
The more I think the better it gets
More and more I'm thinkin' bout s-s-sex
The more I think the worse it gets
But my baby loves to rock
And my baby loves to roll
My baby loves to all night long
My baby loves to rock
She loves to rock
She loves to rock
She loves to rock
But my baby loves to rock
And my baby loves to roll
My baby loves to all night long
My baby loves to rock
She loves to rock
She loves to rock
She loves to rock
In the mornin', in the evenin'
In the summer, in the winter
In my car, in the night, in an airplane
Not in Russia, rock
She loves to rock, she loves to rock
She loves to rock, she loves to rock
She loves to rock
More and more I been thinkin' 'bout love
I hear voices inside my head
All of them just wanna talk to you
I can feel your imagination
Running wild deep inside, you know, it's true
This won't be a test of your religion
You won't have to bang the bedroom walls
Can you really hold and keep a secret?
I'll be right here anytime at all
Anytime you wanna call, call
Anytime you wanna come, come over
Anytime you wanna come, call
Anytime you wanna call, come over
'Cause I need your love, I need your love
'Cause I need your love, I need your love
Well, no one thinks that love lasts forever
More than just a lonely day and night
Never thought about the perfect answer
But I've got a place where you can hide
I can feel your lips all around me
A wet kiss waiting to explode
Anytime you wanna call, call
Anytime you wanna come, come over
Anytime you wanna come, call
Anytime you wanna call, come over
'Cause I need your love, I need your love
'Cause I need your love, I need your love
'Cause I need your love, everyone inside my head wants to talk to you
'Cause I need your love, I need your love, I need your love
'Cause I need your love, 'cause I need your love, I need your love
Everyone inside my head wants to talk to you, 'cause I need your love
I can't eat, I can't sleep, gotta leave, nowhere to go, hidin' out
Oh no, it's what I want, what you gonna do now?
You're the world's greatest lover in my world
You're the world's greatest lover in my world
In my heart, in my world
There is no one else
In the whole wide world
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

And think of home
As I sit and write this letter
And think of home
In my heart, in my world
There is music that I've never heard
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
In my world, in my world
Like I've never heard in my world

You're the world's greatest lover in my world
In my heart, in my world
There is music that I've never heard

Words could never say it
Words could never say it
I know now you're gone
And I can't go on
Where could you be tonight?
I'm sayin' I'm sorry
Baby I'm sorry
'Cause without your love in my life I'll die
I was wrong
I was so wrong
And I'm so scared
What can I do now?
When I close my eyes
All I see is you
Now words could never say it
Words could never say it
If theres a reason why
Say it's a lie
Words could never say it
How I feel now
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
We made it now
We made it love
We made such fools of ourselves
We made it up now
You made it up oh yeah
You know you made it hard
We made it fast
I always thought that it would last
We took a bow
We did it all oh yeah
No words couldn't say
Could never say
Could only play
Someone could say
Would only playing with themselves
Words could never say
How I feel now
Some how
I've got to find a way
'Cause when I dream at night all I see is you
You're wantin' me
And me havin' you
Now words could never say it
Words could never say it
Every time I try
I get lost inside
Now words could never say
How will it feel now
Now that you're gone
Now that you're gone
Words could never say
Words could never say

Wild thing...you make my heart sing...you make everything
Groovy

(repeat chorus)
Wild thing, I think you move me
But I wanna know for sure
So come on, hold me tight
You move me

Don't wanna see you again
You're takin' a little too much
Maybe it's my fault, okay
You've taken away too much
Swimmin' in sorrow all day
Well, fakin' it doesn't do much
Maybe you've fallen from grace
It's takin' a little too much
I couldn't be you, my friend
You're makin' a lie of your love
My love, come out now
You're takin' a little too much, too much
I, I swear, you had it all
Diamonds and pearls in time
You've taken all mine
Now, I couldn't be you my friend
You've taken a little too much
Don't wanna hold you again
Fall for the tricks in your touch
No one can charm like you can
You're makin' a lie of our love
My love, come on, come on
You're takin' a little too much, too much
You'll be there without a care
I'll go alone
I'll fall into life all over again
In time I will find a girl
Who knows just how to be kind
Some days the power's so bright
My love, I can't find no easy way out
I, I swear a lot, a voice tells me to stop
Something inside screamed out
To get my life back again
Don't wanna see you, my friend
You've taken a little too much
Maybe it's my fault, okay
You've taken away too much
I couldn't be you my friend
'Cause none of your riches mean much
I couldn't stand to pretend
You're makin' a lie of our love
My love, come on, come on
You're takin' a little too much, too much
La, la, la
La, la, la
Mother told me, yes, she told me I'd meet girls like you
She also told me, "Stay away, you'll never know what you'll catch"
Well just the other day I heard a soldier falling off
Some Indonesian junk that's going round
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay
Father says, "Your mother's right, she's really up on things
Before we married, Mommy served in the WACS in the Philippines"
Now, I had heard the WACS recruited old maids for the war
But mommy isn't one of those, I've known her all these years
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay
Whatever happened to all this season's losers of the year?
Every time I got to thinking, where'd they disappear?
When I woke up, Mom and Dad were rolling on the couch
Rolling numbers, rock and rolling, got my Kiss records out
Mommy's alright, Daddy's alright, they just seem a little weird
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away, ay, ay, ay
Away, away
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away
Surrender, surrender, but don't give yourself away
My darling little one can you hear me
I’ll know in my heart when you need me
I’ll always be there when you want me to
Take a look around the world it’s a wonder
Look up to the sky that you’re under
There’s so much to life, there’s so much to do
When I see you smile my love
I just can’t hide my love
When you call out my name
When we know how we feel
Well it seem like a dream and I just can’t believe it’s real
Imagine you and me now and ever
Whatever will be I surrender
I’ll always be there if you want me to
When I look into your eyes it’s a wonder
A wonderful spell that I am under
We’re not just dream meant for me and you
When I see you smile my love
I just can’t hide my love
When you call out my name
When you know how we feel
Well it seem like a dream and I just can’t believe it’s real
Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid to cry
I’ll dry your tears, everything will be alright
When I see you smile my love
I just can’t hide my love
When you call out my name
When you know how we feel
Well it seem like a dream and I just can’t believe it’s real
Take a look around the world it’s a wonder
Look up to the sky that you’re under
When I'm down I make a call
Got the number written on the wall
First it's busy then I try again
Oh, who's she talking to, could it be him?
I got the number and it starts to ring
I get excited and I start to dream
I start to fantasize of memory lane
Then she answers and she says right way
She says
"I'm home on my own, home all alone"
So I got off the phone
(She's tight)
She's ahead of her time
(She's tight)
She's one of a kind
(She's tight)
She's a talented girl
(She's tight)
She's got her head down tight
I have something got to say to you
Amnesia and my train of thought
On the tip, tip of my tongue
I had a vision when I was young
You floated in, we floated up
Through the window and down the hall
I had a smoke and went upstairs
Turned the door and opened the key
She spoke
"I'm on my own, home all alone"
So I got off the phone
(She's tight)
She's ahead of her time
(She's tight)
She's one of a kind
(She's tight)
She's a talented girl
(She's tight)
She's got her head down tight
(She's tight)
She's giving me the go
(She's tight)
She's giving me the high sign
(She's tight)
We'll turn off the lights
(She's tight)
Pull down the shades
(She's nice, she's tight)
Turn on the camera
(She's nice, she's tight)
And getting ready for action
(She's nice, she's tight)
(She's nice, she's tight)
Turn off the radio
(She's nice, she's tight)
(She's nice, she's tight)
Turn on the video
(She's nice, she's tight)
She's giving me the go
(She's nice, she's tight)
She's giving me the high sign
(She's nice, she's tight)
We'll turn off the lights
(She's nice, she's tight)
Pull down the shades
(She's nice, she's tight)
Turn on the camera
(She's nice, she's tight)
And getting ready for action
(She's nice, she's tight)
Turn off the radio
How does it feel to be better?
How does it feel to be on your own?
Oh, tell me why did you take the time
And tell me that you came to say goodbye
Everybody wants to laugh when you feel bad
Seems like the only way when the nights won't pass
When you're so sad, if you can't go back
And you can't look down
How does it feel to be better?
How does it feel to be on your own?
Oh, tell me why did you take the time
And tell me that you came to say goodbye
Goodbye
Everything comes to mind, it's a breakdown
The way things seem to slide, it's a free fall
When you're so sad, if you can't go back
And you can't look down
How does it feel to be better?
How does it feel to be on your own?
Oh, tell me why did you take the time
Walk away, tell those lies
And why did you waste your time
To tell me that you came to say goodbye?
Come to me, I'm your boogie man
Come to me, let me take your hand
Smile, you waited for some floor
Come to me, understand
Baby, don't you want some more?
I've got what you need, what you're dyin' for?
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Dance with me, I'm the rhythm king
Dance with me and shake that thing
Babe, I feel like I could die
'Cause I've never been so high, higher than the sky
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, ride the pony
Ride the pony, yea satisfy your funk
Move a little closer
What's holding that thing together?
Let me scoot between your thighs
I've got a pistol in my pocket
Just waitin' for you, hey
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, ride the pony
You got to ride the pony, yea satisfy your funk
Dance with me, I'm the rhythm king
Dance with me, I'll do most anything
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, yea ride the pony
Ride the pony, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, yea satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, ride the pony
Yea, satisfy your funk
Ride the pony, ride the pony
Yea, you got to ride the pony
Romance in a rearview mirror
I'm movin', I'm feelin' like I'm rollin' on my own
(What could be better?)
Then somewhere drivin' my car, the radio turn it on
(What could be better?)
I check around in traffic from my point of view
(What could be better?)
Then I saw her in the mirror
Maybe the same thing has happened to you
It was romance in a rearview mirror
Romance after just one look
Romance in a rearview mirror
I didn't know her but it didn't matter
Romance in a rearview mirror
Just by chance I still can't believe
That it's true love reflected sight
It's a rearview mirror romance tonight
She pulled up close, first glance I saw her eyes
(What could be better?)
I couldn't stop starin' at her she didn't realize
(What could be better?)
Then looked up in the mirror, smile on her face
(What could be better?)
There she goes, heaven knows
Maybe the same thing has happened to you
It was romance in a rearview mirror
Romance after just one look
Romance in a rearview mirror
I didn't know her but it didn't matter
Romance in a rearview mirror
Just by chance I still can't believe
That it's true love reflected sight
It's a rearview mirror romance tonight
There she goes, heaven knows
I wanna meet her all alone
Romance in a rearview mirror
Romance in a rearview mirror
Romance after just one look

Need your love, need your love, need your love, need your love
Fell apart, broke my heart, need your love, need your love
If I could go around the world
I couldn't find another girl, need your love
Need your love, need your love, need your love, need your love
You make me lonely
Why should you care
I give you everything
That's hardly fair
I give you lovin'
It's what you need
I give you everything
Everything in me
It might surprise you
But that's not the reason
Need your love, need your love, need your love, need your love
Fell apart, broke my heart, need your love, need your love

Pour out your heart the feelings never fade away
So where are you now I loved you more than I can say
You wouldn't see, couldn't touch, can't believe it's true
Your love feels like home
You're my obsession
You're my obsession
You're my obsession
All the things we did, what's left is just a photograph
Everything I held, so close was never meant to last
You're in my heart, it's never gonna fade away
Your love feels like home
You're my obsession
You're my obsession
You're my obsession
If I could find all the dreams I've made
I'd turn the clock back to yesterday
To hold onto what I got with you
Shine bright like all the stars
Unlock every dream I've made
I'd turn tomorrow into yesterday
I'd turn tomorrow into yesterday
All the things we did
What's left is just a photograph
You wouldn't see, couldn't touch, can't believe it's true
Your love feels like home
You're my obsession
You're my obsession
You're my obsession
You're my obsession
You're my obsession
You're my obsession
Have you changed your world?
You changed your view
'Cause what you see is all black and blue
Bad on the left, brown on the right
Nothin' seems to fit on a New York night
Have you heard the news?
Are you talkin' to me?
I said "Hey there, baby, do you like what you see?"
Read about it, it never fails
We don't doubt it, it's in the mail
So you wanna be in my gang
You'd better think it through
Yea, you wanna be in my gang
You have to pay your dues
We sleep at night on a bed of nails
All I know, baby's got some thrill
White on the left, black on the right
Nothing seems to fit on a New York night
Have you heard the news?
Are you talking to me?
I said "Hey there, baby, do you like what you see?"
Read about it, it never fails
We don't doubt it, it's in the mail
So you wanna be in my gang
You'd better think it through
Yea, you wanna be in my gang
You got to pay your dues
Yea, you pay the bill, pay the price, pay the pipe bill, brown disguise
If you wanna be in my gang
If you wanna be in my gang
Change your world
Change your view
But tap it now to make it blue
If you think the one you chose
You've just been swayin' between the windows
Read about it, it never fails
We don't doubt it, it's in the mail
So you wanna be in my gang
You'd better think it through
Yea, you wanna be in my gang
You got to pay your dues
Yea, you play the bill, pay the price, pay the pipe bill, brown disguise
If you wanna be in my gang
If you wanna be in my gang
If you wanna be in my gang
Strange
How funny things can be
Strange
The things you said to me
Strange
I could have laughed until I cried
Strange
I could have took you for my bride
Here she comes, miss tomorrow
Here she comes
(Here she comes)
Miss tomorrow
Here she comes, miss tomorrow
Here she comes
(Here she comes)
Miss tomorrow
Cold
You left me froze to the bone
Cold
Your lips were like kissing stone
Love
You said that love is all you need
Cold
You taught The Beatles let it bleed
Here she comes, miss tomorrow
Here she comes
(Here she comes)
Miss tomorrow
Here she comes, miss tomorrow
Here she comes
(Here she comes)
Here comes the miracle
The one we've been waiting for
Here comes the miracle
It's time to open up the door
Oh, the miracle
My heart is beating fast
I can't seem to it slow down
It's too late to turn back
But it's not to late to turn the world round
Here comes the miracle
The one we've been waiting for, oh Lord
It's time to open up the door
Why am I shivering?
I can see him fading fast
For the first time I believe
That I can finally let go of the past
Here comes the miracle
The one we've been waiting for, oh Lord
Here comes the miracle
It's time to open up the door
Here comes the miracle
Here comes the miracle
Here comes the miracle
Here comes the miracle
Here comes the miracle
It's time to open up

There is somewhere, someplace
In this world I want to take you
Look out little girl, little girl
I am one boy, one boy in a thousand
That wants to make you
Look out little girl, little girl, little girl look out
If you're hiding and I'm hiding
From some bum that wants to get you
Look out little girl, little girl
If you're lonely and I'm lonely
And I'm near you I can hear you
Look out little girl, little girl, little girl look out
Sea over yonder when the rights are read your name-ah
You search for the riddle to the clue the river she came
Look out on the land to the south
To the east three said-ah
Cancel Colorado in the march
By request
Don't go on the look out of a whim
Well, I've been around here for way too long
It's really time to go
But there's reasons for my madness
Though it doesn't show
I sit and wait and contemplate
What am I gonna say
When the telephone rings I hear her voice
She speaks that special way
Alright now, little sister
Wait all night for the call
She's alright with me
She's so hot, she's on fire
Ooh, little sister
Fills me up with desire
Ooh, little sister
Sun goes down when she gets up
I don't think I can get enough
Little sister, little sister
Little sister, little sister
Something's flowing through my veins
What it is, I don't know
It's a three alarm fire in my heart
Hope it doesn't show
Call the doctor, call the judge
Justice of the peace
Pluck this flower in full bloom
This relative's no niece
Alright now, little sister
Wait all night for the call
She's alright with me
She's so hot, she's on fire
Ooh, little sister
Fills me up with desire
Ooh, little sister
Sun goes down when she gets up
I don't think I can get enough
Little sister, little sister
Little sister, little sister
I'm at the crossroads waiting for a call
Back against the wall again
But I'm not just expecting anyone
When I get the call that says it all
She says, "Yeah, Robin, I'll be right over"
She's so hot, she's on fire
Ooh, little sister
Fills me up with desire
Ooh, little sister
Sun goes down when she gets up
I don't think I can get enough
Little sister, little sister
Little sister, little sister
Ooh, I like it when you talk dirty to me
She's so hot, she's on fire
Ooh, little sister
Fills me up with desire
Ooh, little sister
Sun goes down when she gets up
I don't think I can get enough
Little sister, little sister
Little sister, little sister
She's so hot, she's on fire
Ooh, little sister
Fills me up with desire
Ooh, little sister
Sun goes down when she gets up
I don't think I can get enough
Little sister, little sister
Invaders of the heart
Are messin' with my mind
Invaders of the heart
Can make your heart blind
Invaders of the heart
Are drivin' me insane
Invaders of the heart
Are playin' with my brain
I can't see anymore
Now I've gotten tunnel vision
I can't be anyone
I just got no direction
I can't see anything
But I don't need glasses on
I can't think anymore
I'm just a nervous wreck
Invaders of the heart
Are messin' with my mind
Invaders of the heart
Can make your heart blind
Invaders of the heart
Are drivin' me insane
Invaders of the heart
Are playin' with my brain
I can't see anymore
Always buckle under pressure
I can't be anyone
The slightest thing will set me off
I can't feel anything
I'm on pins and I'm on needles
I can't think anymore
I've lost my appetite
Invaders of the heart
Are messin' with my mind
Invaders of the heart
Can make your heart blind
Invaders of the heart
Are drivin' me insane
Invaders of the heart
Are playin' with my brain

Make your heart blind

You can never come down, you can never come down
You can never come down, you can never come down
Down inside, you're getting nervous
Have you seen her face
She's got a face that would stop a clock
And with that face I surely won't stop
To look her in the eyes
But her money's green
Like tea and so's her teeth
But she's still so close to my reach
If I call, if I call at all
Any time at all
Any time at all
Any time at all
Any time at all
So the story goes
I think I'll take her for a ride
With this moneybag by my side
A gigolo is the only way to go
And so I show my face
And I can't even fake a smile
But I'm laughing inside all the while
This little girl, she's a joke, she's a joke, she's a joke
Any time at all
Any time at all
Any time at all
Any time at all
He's a whore
(I'd do anything for money)
He's a whore
(Look at the things that I write)
He's a whore
(Ooh, the stories I can tell)
He's a whore
(In the morning as well as night)
I'm a whore
(He'll do anything for money)
I'm a whore
(Look at the clothes that he wears)
I'm a whore
(He'll do anything for money)
I'm a whore
Ans so the story goes
I think I'll take her for a ride
With this moneybag by my side
Well, the streets are all crowded
Lots of people around
And there's music playing
But I can't hear a sound
Just the sound of the rain
Falling silently down
Livin' ain't been livin'
Since you put me down
Yeah, life goes on around me every day
But it might as well be
Half a million miles away
It's like a ghost town without your love
Like a ghost town without your love
Like a ghost town, baby, can't you see?
It's a ghost town, until you come back to me
Oo, oo, till you come back to me
Well, I wish I still had you
Had you here next to me
Baby, where did you go?
Baby, why did you leave?
Oh, the world, it keeps turnin'
But it don't turn for me
Without you in my life
My life ain't no place to be
There's only lonely days and empty nights
Ain't the same without you, baby
Nothing's feelin' right
Nothing?s feelin' right
It's like a ghost town without your love
Like a ghost town without your love
Like a ghost town, baby, can't you see?
It's a ghost town, until you come back to me
Oo oo, till you come back to me
Darlin', I wanna leave this town
Don't wanna be around
I'm gonna leave this town
It's like a ghost town
It?s like a ghost town without your love
Like a ghost town without your love
Like a ghost town, baby, can't you see?
A ghost town, until you come back to me
Oo oo, till you come back to me
It?s like a ghost town
It?s a ghost town
Hey hey, it?s like a ghost town, can?t you see?
It?s like a ghost town
'Til you come, till you come back to me
Everybody Knows
Caught in the storm
Lost in the sea
Damned for the crew and me
The captain he cries so many tears
Lost ‘till eternity
And the bough, she’ll break
From the pounding waves
All aboard abandon the ship
Everybody Knows
All ashore are drowned in the seas
As your lives will pass before your eyes
Caught in the act as a matter of fact
Her pants down to her knees
Saved by the bell
Oh bloody hell
Take your positions please
And for those who sail
Through the pounding gale
All aboard abandon the ship
Everybody Knows
All ashore are drowned in the seas
As your lives will pass before your eyes
Tell me over and over, baby well it’s alright
And tell me it’s not over
And we’ll go on and on and on
All aboard abandon the ship
Everybody Knows
All ashore are drowned in the seas
As your lives will pass before your eyes
Everybody knows
That’s the way things go
All the ties that bind
Heaven knows they’ll flash before your eyes
Everybody knows
That’s the way things go

When I was a little boy
I dreamed of playing with bigger toys
I just knew what I just knew
What else was I supposed to do?
Scream, dream, scream, dream
Scream, dream, scream, dream
Scream, dream
Another notch on the bedpost
Another notch on your gun
Put your lips on the list of life
Another notch on your gun
Years gone by and now I'm eight
The girl next door, I can't tolerate
She found a patient, oh, I give in
She's the nurse with the medicine
Scream, dream, scream, dream
Scream, dream, scream, dream
Scream, dream
Another notch on the bedpost
Another notch on your gun
Put your lips on the list of life
You had it all but you're not the only one
You're not the only boy
Violins, I can hear you call
I found out you don't care at all
Violins, tell me, what to do
All I want is to play with you
The day that I turned twenty-one
Thought I was the biggest gun
Lusted from your face to view
What else was I supposed to do?
Scream, dream, scream, dream
Scream, dream, scream, dream
Scream, dream
Another notch on the bedpost
Another notch on your gun
Put your lips on the list of life
You had it all but you're not the only boy
You're not the only one
Violins, I can hear you call
I found out you don't care at all
Violins, tell me, what to do
The dream police, they live inside of my head
The dream police, they come to me in my bed
The dream police, they're coming to arrest me, oh no
You know that talk is cheap
And those rumors ain't nice
And when I fall asleep
I don't think I'll survive the night, the night
'Cause they're waiting for me
They're looking for me
Every single night they're driving me insane
Those men inside my brain
The dream police, they live inside of my head
(Live inside of my head)
The dream police, they come to me in my bed
(Come to me in my bed)
The dream police, they're coming to arrest me, oh no
Well, I can't tell lies
'Cause they're listening to me
And when I fall asleep
Bet they're spying on me tonight, tonight
'Cause they're waiting for me
They're looking for me
Every single night they're driving me insane
Those men inside my brain
I try to sleep, they're wide awake, they won't let me alone
They don't get paid to take vacations or let me alone
They spy on me, I try to hide, they won't let me alone
They persecute me, they're the judge and jury all in one
'Cause they're waiting for me
They're looking for me
Every single night they're driving me insane
Those men inside my brain
The dream police, they live inside of my head
The dream police, they come to me in my bed
The dream police, they're coming to arrest me
The dream police
The dream police
The dream police
The dream police
I've been waitin' every night after school
For five long years, five long years
I'll keep waitin' there for five nights a week
'Cause I am no fool
Ooh rockin' and a rollin'
Reelin' till the break of
Ooh reelin' and a rockin'
Rolling till the school breaks down
I'm thirty but I feel like sixteen
I might even know your daddy
I'm dirty but my body is clean
I might even be your daddy
Ooh reelin' and a rockin'
Rollin' till the break of
Ooh reelin' and a rockin'
Rolling till the school breaks
I like you, will you like me? Yes
Sorry but I'll have to grab you

Sorry but I'll have to have you
I like you, will you like me? Yes?
Sorry but I'll have to grab you
You look better completely undressed
Sorry but I'll have to have you
I'm thirty but I feel like sixteen
How would you like some of candy?
I'm thinkin' more than a kiss
With me, spank me, grab me
Run out of money and runnin' out of luck
Run into problems I never, never thought of
It seems like I didn't run out of my dreams
But we've got each other and tonight we're gonna leave
To the borderline
Leave all our troubles behind
At the borderline
Forget all our troubles tonight
A broken promise is a broken dream
We've all had so many, too many for me
Impossible to have freedom when things aren't free
But we've got each other and tonight we're gonna leave
To the borderline
Leave all our troubles behind
At the borderline
Forget all our troubles and hide
To the borderline
Leave our troubles tonight
At the borderline
Forget all our troubles
Leavin' all our troubles
At the borderline
I wanna go, I wanna go
I wanna go, oh, I'll go anywhere
I wanna go, I wanna go away from here
Is all I really care
Runnin' away from the girl of my dreams
Runnin' away from the life of broken dreams
To the borderline
Leavin' all our troubles behind
At the borderline
Forget all our troubles tonight
To the borderline
Leave all our troubles behind
At the borderline
Forget all our troubles
Leavin' all our troubles
At the borderline
At the borderline
At the borderline
At the borderline
At the borderline
[Incomprehensible]
When the moon came up
And the sun went down
All I could see was a national frown
Pounded from flesh
And harder than steel
Pretty in pink that's just how I feel
Leave me alone 'cuz I'm my best friend
If you wanna be with me, I'll be there till the end
Till the end of time and time ,again
Just leave me alone 'cuz I'm my best friend
Yeah, yeah
'Cuz I'm my best friend
'Cuz I'm my best friend
All I got is might and will
If all I got is might and will
I can't slow down, 'cuz down we'll go
Where I step you don't wanna know
Round and round and round, we'll go
Where I step is where I wanna go
Go, go, go, go
Go, go, go
Where I wanna be is where I wanna go
Lofty thoughts and high ideals
Lofty skirts is what appeals
This baby is no baby Ruth
He was too smart for her
She was so damned cute
I'm sick and tired, I can't be late
I'm so damn mad, I can't keep straight
Time and time and time again
Leave me alone 'cuz I'm my best friend, yeah
Leave me alone 'cuz I'm my best friend, yeah
I'm my best friend, yeah
I'm my best friend, yeah
I'm my best friend, yeah
I'm my best friend, yeah
I'm my best friend, yeah
I'm my best friend, yeah
Words and Music by Rick Nielsen
You talk too much
You talk too much
You talk too much to me
Dear father, don't mother me
Dear mother, don't bother me
If I ever needed your advice, oh
I would have called you on the telephone
I've been wrong maybe once or twice
And that's when I was listenin' to you
You talk too much
You talk too much
You talk too much to me
Dear preacher, you won't reach me
Dear teacher, don't preach to me
If I ever needed your advice, oh
I would have called you on the telephone
I've only been wrong maybe once or twice
And that's when I was listenin' to you
Oh, shut up!
You talk too much
You talk too much
You talk too much, oh yeah
Should have never happened that way
I made a mistake that changed forever
I don't know what I'm supposed to say
but like cheap trick I surrender
When I laid my eyes on you I knew
that this was forever
how could I have been such a stupid fool
I'm not so clever
I forgot what happened that day
wish I could go back and make it better
I had my guard up there's nothing you could say
the white flags up now I surrender
When I laid my eyes on you I knew
that this was forever
how could I have been such a stupid fool
I'm not so clever
What a train wreck another bad day
I'm drinking myself through a week long bender
I don't know what I'm supposed to say
but like cheap trick I surrender
