(Gene Simmons)
[Verse]
I'm crying, I'm dying
Deep inside I'm lying, every time I call your name
I was lonely, so lonely
You were always my one and only (ooh)
It's always the same
But it's over, it's over
And I can't help thinking it over and over
But you're not to blame
[Chorus]
You're my reason for living
You're my reason for giving
You're my reason for living
And I can't help this feeling...
[Verse]
Another day, another sorrow
And I can't help thinking there's no tomorrow...
Without you...
I can't feel the pain, and that's a start
Well the first time I saw your face
Was the last time I saw my heart
(Ooh)
[Chorus]
You're my reason for living
And I can't help this feeling...
You're my reason for living
And I can't stop believing...
No, no, no (ooh)
[Verse]
It's over, it's over
Well I can't help thinking it over and over and over and over
It's always the same
(Ooooh)
[Chorus]
You're my reason for living
You're my reason for giving
You're my reason for living
And I can't help this feeling...
(Dave Williams, Gene Simmons)
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
[Verse]
Well who else would I be (a-ha, a-ha)
If I lost this dark side of me (no, no, no, no)
You know damn well
You'll never change me
I wouldn't be any good (say what)
If you could take away all this pain
I really do think you should
[Break]
Well if you keep it strong, and I'll keep it up (yeah, yeah)
Whatever turns you on, turns you on
And if you set it straight, I will not hesitate
Whatever turns you on, turns me on
[Chorus]
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
[Verse]
So you've been walking around in an haze for days and days and days
Ever since you kicked me out of your bed you were left in some kind of haze
How can you feel how you feel how you feel and feel that you're feeling good
I know you know what I'm saying
You know I know we can keep it up all night
[Break]
And if you keep it strong, and I'll keep it up (yeah, yeah)
Whatever turns you on, (hey) turns you on
And if you set it straight, I will not hesitate
Whatever turns you on, (hey) turns me on
[Chorus]
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
So you've been walking around in an haze for days and days and days
Ever since you kicked me out of your bed you were left in some kind of haze
How can you feel how you feel how you feel and feel that you're feeling good
And if you keep it strong, and I'll keep it up (yeah, yeah)
Whatever turns you on, (hey) turns you on
And if you set it straight, I will not hesitate
Whatever turns you on, (hey) turns me on
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (whoo-ooh)
Whatever turns you on, turns me on, hey (oh yeah)
(Gene Simmons)
[Verse]
Born in the ashes of ruin at the birth of your kind
In the dawn of creation you conjured me in your mind
Love thy neighbor as you love yourself
You just can't hear the sound of your own church bells
What you reep is what you get
[Chorus]
I bring you the weapons of mass destruction
E pluribus unum
Illusion
Delusion
[Chorus]
No matter where you go there I am
Like salt on a wound you're the sacrificial lamb
You deserve everything that you get
You're guilty 'til you're proved innocent
What you see is what you get
[Chorus]
[Guitar Solo]
As I'm walkin' round one street corner
I turn to see you coming my way, I'm on fire
I look up, I see your eyes a'burning
They're burning right through my head, You're looking so good
If I'm built for speed
You're built for love
You're too much of a good thing
But It's much too good
My sweet and dirty love
You talk to me
But just the same
You brought me
Back to life again
I'm built for speed
You're built for love
You're too much of a good thing
And it's much too good
My sweet and dirty love
I can't control myself
I'm about to lose head
Can't get enough
Sweet, dirty love
And this heart of mine
Wants you all the time
This ain't no fairytale
Can't get enough
My sweet dirty love
Well if you're lookin' for the best, then baby be my guest
I'm right before your eyes and I'm tellin' you no lies
You wanted my disease, you'll have to do as I please
You'll jump off the roof if I say, I won't let you get away
It must have been the devil in me, I don't know what else it could be
Chorus:
Tunnel of love, tunnel of love, let me visit your tunnel of love
Tunnel of love, tunnel of love, I've got to visit your tunnel of love
You're just a victimless crime, it happens all the time, yeah
You'll have an overstay, and your bill is my pay
You are the lock, I am the key, you know what you do to me
chorus
You are the lock, I am the key, you know what you do to me
Before you tell me to go, I've got to let you know
How you're makin' my temperature rise
I let you use me, you tried to abuse me, you tell me you're not very nice
I'm not your social security, I'm not your star opportunity, yeah
Oh baby, you can have me absolutely, won't you give me
True confessions, true confessions, true confessions
That's all I'm askin' for, yeah
I do things to make you crazy inside
And baby that's one thing you know you can't hide
You ask me why, what's your confession
Well baby, the truth is, you're in my possession tonight
True confessions, true confessions, true confessions
That's all I'm askin' for, yeah
I'm not your social security, I'm not your star opportunity, yeah
Oh baby, you can have me absolutely, won't you give me

[Verse]
I know you're playing a game
But you're not to blame
But sometimes I feel just the same
I need a renaissance
Another chance to make new plans
But I'll go on livin' just the same (Ooooh)
[Chorus]
Now that you're gone (now that you're gone)
I'll go on living (I'll go on living)
And I'll carry on just the same...
And you're to blame
Now that you're gone (now that you're gone)
I'm just beginning to feel the pain
[Verse]
We happened much too fast
That's in the past
We may know at last
But that's a chance we'll have to take (Ooooh)
[Chorus]
Now that you're gone (now that you're gone)
I'll go on living (I'll go on living)
And I'll carry on just the same...
And you're to blame
Now that you're gone (now that you're gone)
I'm just beginning to feel the pain
Just begun (just begun) to be the one
To feel the pain
Just begun (just begun) to feel the pain
To be the one
To feel the pain
You left us when I was much too young
And I was your only son
But you left me anyway
And now my heartache's just begun
And now you're gone I'm all alone
[Chorus]
Just begun to feel the pain
To be the one to feel the pain
Just begun (now that you're gone)
To be the one (now that you're gone)
Just begun (now that you're gone)
To be the one (now that you're gone)
Now that you're gone
To be the one (now that you're gone)
Just begun (now that you're gone)
To be the one (now that you're gone)
Now that you're gone
To be the one (now that you're gone)
Now that you're gone
To be the one (now that you're gone)

[Verse]
Hey you standing over there
Come inside, and outside
Sit back, you're going for a ride
And do you know?
And do you care?
You never cared anyway, anyway
Television, inquisition, incision
[Chorus]
Round and round it goes (round and round it goes)
This carnival of souls...
[Verse]
You're born alone
You die alone
Still marching to the same old song
Well there's a price
Well there's a fee
Well at least the goddamn air is free
And do you know?
And do you care?
You never cared anyway, anyway
Television, inquisition, incision
[Chorus]
Round and round it goes...
This carnival of souls...
[Guitar Solo]
Television, inquisition, incision
[Chorus]
Round and round it goes (round and round it goes)
This carnival of souls...
You're my food, you're my water
You've got to be the Devil's daughter
Can't get near, can't get far
You've got the power, you know who you are
She's radioactive, she's very selective
She's what I need, she's so pretty indeed
She wants it all the time
An' I'm crazy, kind of hazy
I'm not sorry, got no worry
I'm not lonely, she's my only
She's got me eatin' out of her hand
She's radioactive, she's very selective
She's what I need, she's so pretty indeed
I've gotta make her mine
She's radioactive, she's very selective
She's what I need, she's so pretty indeed
I've gotta make her mine
She's radioactive, she's very selective
She's what I need, she's so pretty indeed
I've gotta make her mine
She's my little baby, she's such a lady
She knows how I feel, she knows that it's real
She wants it all the time
She's radioactive, she's very selective
She's what I need, she's so pretty indeed
I've gotta make her mine
She's my little baby, she's such a lady
She knows how I feel, she knows that it's real
This time I'll try to get it right
Just give me one more chance tonight, oh yeah
I'm tryin' hard to please you, would you believe me if I tell you
Baby won't you try, just one more chance tonight
Chorus:
Mr. Make Believe, Mr. Make Believe, let me live inside you, please
chorus
And when you tell me what you'd like, oh yeah (oh yeah)
You'll know you'll never have to fight, whoa no
I'm tryin' hard to please you, would you believe me if I tell you
Baby won't you try, just one more chance tonight, one more chance tonight
chorus
I'm tryin' hard to please you, would you believe me if I tell you
Baby won't you try, just one more chance tonight, one more chance tonight
I walk the streets by day, I never know quite what to say
It doesn't matter anyway
Man of a 1000 faces, man of a 1000 faces, man of a 1000 faces, who's the man
For years I've lived inside my dreams
Somehow I've made them real, it seems
I made my own rules, because I am a
Man of a 1000 faces, man of a 1000 faces, man of a 1000 faces, who's the man
I can put on any face, you all know me, but it's no disgrace
The king of night, he understands
Man of a 1000 faces, man of a 1000 faces, man of a 1000 faces, who's the man
Who's the man of a 1000 faces, who's the man of a 1000 faces
Who's the man of a 1000 faces, who's the man
I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man
I'm the man of a 1000 faces, I'm the man of a 1000 faces
I'm the man of a 1000 faces, I'm the man

I said
Look a me with my makeup messed
I feel so ugly I've never been kissed
Hey God can you make it all go away
[Verse]
Everyday it's the same damn thing
I wake up draggin' this ball and chain
I keep on looking for a piece of the action
But I just can't get ahead
[Chorus]
He said, if I had a gun
I'd have me some fun
I'd shoot everyone
Who pisses me off today
So don't piss me off today
Look at me I'm all screwed up
I've banged my head I'm stuck in a rut
So hey God, can you make it all go away
[Verse]
And all the crap goin' in my head
Makes me crazy, makes me see red
I keep on looking for a piece of the action
But I can't get ahead
[Chorus]
He said, if I had a gun
I'd have me some fun
I'd shoot everyone
Who pisses me off today
And he said, I want to go home
'Cause I know I can't take anymore
So don't piss me off today
I said
Look a me with my makeup messed
I feel so ugly I've never been kissed
Hey God can you make it all go away
(Gene Simmons)
[Verse]
I dream a thousand dreams
I'd wait a million lifetimes for you
If you just give a smile
I could die and be happy too
I'd wait a thousand years
I'd walk a million miles for you
And all I need is a sweet reminder
That you want me too
And when you smile that simple smile
You change my darkness to light
I might as well stop breathing
If you don't believe it's right
I'd do it all for you
If only one of my dreams come true
Cause every night would be ecstasy
If I could be with you
[Slide Solo]
Try as I might to find a way
To get you out of my mind
I just can't help myself
From crying every night
And when you smile that simple smile
You change my darkness to light
I might as well stop breathing
If you don't believe it's right
I'd do it all for you
If only one of my dreams come true
Cause every night would be exctasy
If I could be with you
Yes, every night would be exctasy
If I could be with you...
(Gene Simmons)
[Verse]
You feel that you don't belong
You can't do right and you can't do wrong
Go on singing the same old song
It's okay, it's alright
Better find yourself someone tonight
Take a good hard look inside of your heart...
Oooh, every time you try to walk away
Every time you turn and walk away
Always someone you can turn to with what you say
What you say...
[Chorus]
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
[Verse]
You tell them you don't have the faith
Knowing much too little is much too late
But it's okay and it's alright
Can't keep buyin' the same old song
And babe, you're time is going to come
Then it won't be long...
Can't you see our world is falling down
Can't you see our world is upside-down
And don't you know what goes around comes around
Comes around...
[Chorus]
Man, no more teachers, preachers gonna stop you doing that
And you finally left your conscience in your past
In your past
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
Everybody Knows
(Bag, Gene Simmons)
[Verse]
That's right
You know I kinda love ya (yeah)
All the way to the bitter end
Because you're breaking my balls
You're making me crawl
On all fours again (Aw)
[Chorus]
Yeah
I like it rough (Ha-ha)
You know I like that rough stuff
[Verse]
I don't need your affection
Let me shake and lift a leg (yeah)
Your eyes are a-gog
I'll bark like a dog
And let's roll in bed
Yeah

Aw-aw
And when I take your body
So help me God

Let me tie you up
And you make me bark like a dog (yeah)
Huh-huh

And I say, "better to see you with" (hmmm)
And you say, "what big arms you have"
And I say, "the better to hold you with"
And you say, "that's a big tongue you've got"

Frank:
"Alright kids, here's a real rock 'n roll song"
[Verse]
Frank says...
If everyone says your hair's too long
Or else it's far too short...
Don't ever afford yourself for anyone else of course
If anyone says, when you play guitar,
It's always much too loud
You can tell them to stick it
You won't get far if you're not far out
[Chorus]
My black tongue's coming right out of me
Drowning out my misery
Black tongue is coming out
My black tongue's always hanging out of me (that's right)
I'm going down in history
Guitar, one time...
[Verse]
Frank says...
If everyone says you're much too old
You're out of style...
Just tell them you're doing their sister and mommy every once in a while
And if everyone says you've got a big mouth,
You refuse to shut-up
Just tell them to kiss your behind
Just tell them to kiss your behind
[Chorus]
My black tongue's coming right out of me
Drowning out my misery
Black tongue is out
My black tongue's always hanging out of me
I'm going down in history
Guitar...
[Guitar Solo]
Black tongue is out...
Frank:
"Listen, you guys don't give a shit what we play, you just wanna make noise"
My black tongue's coming right out of me
Drowning out my misery
My black tongue's always hanging out of me
Going down in history
My black tongue's always hanging out of me
Drowning out my misery
My black tongue's always hanging out of me
Going down in history
Frank:
"Take notice of what these weirdos are saying, what they are doing. You never know, they might know something you don't know, huh?"
You think that you're so cool
That you're nobody's fool
But you've got a personality
Just like a bucket full of pee
How does it feel
To be a real asshole?
You're such a creep
You look like a sheep asshole
You know you've got no shame
And you've got such a stupid name
And one day you'll finally shut your trap
'Cause you are the cream of the crap
How does it feel
To be a real asshole?
You're such a creep
You look like a sheep asshole
Asshole asshole
You're such an asshole
You always look like an idiot
This may be news for you
You are the king of all stupidness
Maybe I'm an asshole too
Maybe I'm an asshole too
Just like you
You're such an asshole
How does it feel
To be a real asshole?
You're such a creep
You look like a sheep asshole
How does it feel
To be a real asshole?
You're such a creep
You look like a sheep asshole
You're such an asshole
Maybe I'm an asshole too
I've just begun since you've gone, to understand I'm the only one
And if you cross yourself at night
Chorus:
I'll come and see you, don't run and hide
I'm always near you, I'm always near you, near you
And if you turn out the light (turn out the light)
Don't think you'll hide behind the night (behind the night)
And if you touch me, I might
Might turn and see you, don't run and hide
I'm always near you, I'm always near you, near you
I've just begun since you've gone (since you've been gone)
To understand I'm the only one (the only one)
And if you cross yourself at night
chorus
Don't run and hide, you'll be the only one
I said don't try to hide for me and everyone
Don't try to hide, you'll be the only one
I said don't try to hide for me and everyone
Everyone, oh everyone, oh everyone
Everyone, oh everyone, aha, oh everyone
When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires will come to you
If your heart is in your dreams, nothing else is too extreme
When you wish upon a star as dreamers do
(Fate is kind, she brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of their secret longing)
Like a boat out of the blue, fate steps in and sees you thru
When you wish upon a star, your dreams come true

I'm waiting for the morning light
Then every night I wonder why
I always try to play it cool
I mean hello but say goodbye
And I can't help myself
I'm wide awake all through the night
Keep waiting for the morning light
And here I'm all alone
Sitting by the telephone
And I wonder why
I wonder why, I wonder why
I keep laughing when I wanna cry
And I wonder why
Every day seems like there's no tomorrow
And every night I wonder why
Do I always seem to say it too
When things don't always turn out right
And there you sit inside my picture frame
But it's not the same
Ever since you said goodbye
And here I'm all alone
Sitting by the telephone
And I'm wide awake
Still wide awake, all through the night
Keep waiting for the morning light
I always try to play it so cool
And I don't know why
Gotta keep on smiling
Gotta keep on laughing
When I want to cry, I do believe it
And here I'm all alone
Sitting by the telephone
And I wonder why
I wonder why, I wonder why
I keep laughing when I wanna cry
Ooh, sing it
I know it's around, I don't have any doubts about that night
I'll see you get it tonight, and if I can't I'll cry and cry
You won't see me without it and I'll see you tonite
But I know it's around, I don't have any doubts about that night
I'll see you get it tonight, and if I can't I'll cry and cry
You won't see me without it and I'll see you tonite, outside
See you tonite, outside, see you tonite

And you pick up a phone, you want me to hold
Well dry your eyes, it's alright, it's alright
Chorus:
See you, feel you in your dreams tonight
See you, feel you in your dreams tonight, dreams tonight
When you're in the room, you're home too soon, you can't get me out of your mind

I love you, you know I do, but take me home tonight
And think of me, I think of you, baby baby it's alright, it's alright yeah

When you're in the room, you're home too soon, you can't get me out of your mind

You're my food, you're my water, you've got to be the devil's daughter
Can't get near, can't get far, you've got the power, but know you are
She's radioactive (radioactive), she's very selective (radioactive)
She's what I need, she's so pretty indeed, she wants it all the time

Chorus:
I'm living in sin (at the holiday inn)
At the holiday inn, yeah (living in sin)
I'm living in sin (at the holiday inn)

Spent your money on silicone, Honey
You're somebody beautiful, look at yourself
You're somebody beautiful, like nobody else
Hey, put on those fake eyelashes
Wax away the old mustache
You're six foot four in six-inch heels
A Cupid tattoo behind your ear
You're an ingenue in a full-length mirror
A tight black dress, all the right moves
From your long blonde tresses to your sequined shoes
You're somebody beautiful, look at yourself
You're somebody beautiful
You're somebody beautiful, like nobody else
You're somebody beautiful
You're somebody beautiful, look at yourself
You're somebody beautiful
You're somebody beautiful
Downtown on Saturday night
They happen to catch you in the light
You'd like to dance but they want you to fight
They could never understand what it's like
To reach the age of twenty three
Knowing what you are, you're not supposed to be
Spent your money on silicone, Honey
Made up your mind for the very first time
You're somebody beautiful, look at yourself
You're somebody beautiful
You're somebody beautiful, like nobody else
Like a Hollywood legend or a rock 'n roll star
What you are is what you are
Standing there naked in the mirror's embrace, you say
This is my body, this is my face
Spent your money on silicone, Honey
You're somebody beautiful, look at yourself
You're somebody beautiful
You're somebody beautiful, like nobody else
You're somebody beautiful
You're somebody beautiful, look at yourself
You're somebody beautiful
