Ev'rybody wants somethin' for nothin'.
Yeah, they all want it fo free.
These days, now nothin' cost ya somethin'.
No tellin' what it could be.
Never happen if ya never try.
All the nights awake and the tears we've cried
Could fill the seven seas.
So, c'mon, ev'rybody, c'mon, ev'rybody,
We got to give ourselves, got to give ourselves a hand.
And if we feel it's all a mess, yeah, yeah,
Why don't we try a little, try a little lve 'n' tenderness.
If we got more than comes around, yeah, yeah,
Why don't we care a little, share a little.
Sure to come back around. Guitar!
Lately everybody's thinkin'
Me, my, only I thinkin' for me.
Here lately, everbody's talkin', baby.
But we all know that talk is cheap.
We can make it happen if we make a try.
All the nights awake and the tears we've cried
Could fill the seven seas.
So, c'mon, ev'rybody, c'mon, ev'rybody,
We gotta give ourselves, gotta give ourselves a hand, yeah.
And before it falls apart, yeah, yeah,
Why don't we live a little, give a little, straight from the heart.
And if this old world gets ya down, yeah, yeah,
You gotta pick it up and toss it in the air, kick it all around. Kick it!
I don't even know how I wanna say, but I know what I wanna say.
Do you know where I'm comin' from?
As the bass plays on, and still the guitars strum,
While the Colonel beats the drum, so the whole band plays along,
And the whole world sings a song, yeah,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And before it falls apart, yeah, yeah,
Live a little, give a little, straight from the heart.
If this whole world gets ya down, yeah, yeah,
You gotta pick it up and toss it in the air. Kick it all around.
And if you don't like the way the music plays, the way it sounds,
Hop back in the kitchen, change it all around.
Stir it up, baby. Stir it up, baby, stir it up,
Stir it up, stir it up, stir it up,
Stir it up now, stir it up, baby.
Stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby, stir it up,
Stir it up, stir it up, stir it up, stir it up,
Stir it up now, stir it up, baby. And you know:
Nobody gets somethin' for nothin'.
Nobody's gettin' it for free. [Spoken:] But you know
These days now nothin' costs ya somethin', baby.
And-a there ain't no tellin what it could be.
So stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby.
Stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby.
Stir, stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby.
(Keith, Luccketta, Skeoch, Hannon)
Doesn't matter who gets the best of who, or who can hurt who the most, no
It never was meant for it to be that way, never should be that way at all
[Chorus:]
The way it is, that's the way that it goes, happenin' day after day, yes
That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes
Workin' in the strangest ways
Even though we could never seem to work things out
I still love you just the same, I do
I miss your smile and that sparkle in your eyes
You're so beautiful, never change!
[Chorus]
What it is, and what it was, what shall be shall be, yeah
Sometimes it happens in the strangest ways
Sometimes it's hard to believe (do you believe?)
Do you believe, can you believe?
The way it is, that's the way that it goes
Workin' in the, workin' in the strangest ways
[Solo]
Now it really don't matter who, who gets the best of who
It never did and it never will, no
It never was meant for it to be that way, why must it be that way at all?
The way it is, that's the way that it goes, happenin' day after day, yeah yeah
That's the way it is, that's the way that it goes
Workin' in the, workin' in the strangest ways
That's the way it is, that's the way it is
That's the way it is, that's the way it goes, yeah
Yeah, that's the way it is, that's the way it goes
That's the way it is, that's the way it goes
I see it happen day after day, yeah, yeah
Now I'm workin' in the strangest ways
Yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
[Solo]
Can you believe, do you believe? Do you believe, can you believe?
That's the way it is, that's the way it is, yeah yeah yeah
That's the way it is, that's the way it goes, yes it do
Alright!
Dear Mr. Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything, take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years
Dear Mr. Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything, take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy, yeah yeah
Dear Mr. Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything, take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar, make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you
When mountains crumble into the sea
There would still be you and me
Kind woman, I give you my arm
Kind woman, nothing more
Little drops of rain
Whisper of the pain
Tears and love lost in the days gone by
My love is strong
With you there is no wrong
together we shall go until we die
my my my
Inspiration's what you are to me
Inspiration-look, see
And so today, my world smiles
Your hand in mine, we walk the miles
Thanks to you, it will be done
For you to me, are the only one
What I say is
Happiness no longer sad
Happiness, I'm glad
If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you.
When the mountains crumble to the sea
There would still be you and me.
Did you think it wouldn't show, you're here with me, but I'm so alone
And now this house don't feel like home, I can't believe how much we've grown
So far apart, so far away, you just can't hide something as plain as day
I think it's safe to say, that's it's just no good
And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
I know you think you're always right, and just because, you've got God in your life
But he don't appreciate the way you lied, he can't believe how hard you tried
To take me down, to take it all, hanging around, and making sure I fall
Then say it was me to blame, and I was, for trusting someone like you anyways
And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
And I don't need you in my life, the way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done, you'll never burn me twice
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed, and what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done, do you like what you've become
Time.
You've got to wake up ev'rybody,
Seven-thirty o'clock,
It's time to go to work.
A-send the young to school,
Gonna teach them the golden rule.
Talk about things that they don't wanna know about.
Now teacher, teacher, can't you see,
I'm tired and I need some sleep.
I don't wanna hear whatcha gotta say
About arithmetic or history.
All that jive don't mean a thing to me.
It's all a waste of time.
I ain't got no time for doin' this,
Ain't got no time for doin' that,
Ain't got no time for that at all, no!
I ain't got no time for messin' 'round,
For funky bullshit goin' down.
Just time for rock-n-roll. Oh yeah.
I just got time to rock-n-roll.
Why now, must they take my favorite song,
Turn around and say it's wrong, when I know it's right?
Now, why don't they just leave it alone,
'Cause it's only rock-n-roll, but I like it!!
Now, listen Mrs. Politician,
Don't ya try to tell me how to sing my song.
Tell me, who do you think you are?!
Who do you think you are?!
I ain't got no time for messin' 'round,
For funky bullshit goin' down.
No time for that at all, no!
I ain't got no time for Uncle Sam,
Taxin' my money, tax my land.
Just time for rock-n-roll, woh yeah!
I just got time to rock-n-roll!
(Keith, Hannon)
Fallin’ rain

I ain't no program on your television screen.
They only taught me what they wanted me to be.
Heard all your so-called facts. Now hit me with the truth.
Takes a lotta nerve the way you played me for the fool.
It's my personal selection to fly in my own direction.
No time for fuckin' 'round with mediocrity.
Takes ev'rything I got just tryin' to be me.
Life's like a highway. We're all try'n' to stay on time.
Travel atcha own speed. You take your lane, I'll take mine.
Don't believe all that you hear or half of whatcha see.
'S'waste o' time to criticize. Don't de-rock me.
[Chorus:]
Don't de-rock me. Don't de-rock me.
You be you and I'll be me. Don't de-rock me.
"Backstage Betty", banana in her cherry, in the shower down on her knees.
Like to think she'll own ya if she'll do all that ya please.
Hurts like a mother bein' cursed by a punter who's five sheets to the wind.
Won't stop at nothin', claimin' to be cousin till security lets 'em in.
Now I'm no symbol of perfection, so why deal with this infection?
Tired of bein' treated like some piece of property.
Fakes, lies, patronizin' don't sit well with me.
Blastin' down the highway, try'n' to stay between the lines.
You can get to where you're go'n'. Just don't ignore the signs.
Don't de-rock me. Don't de-rock me.
Young girl sweet as candy, a-turnin' hearts to stone.
She'll catch a young man's fancy. A-love 'em, leave 'em alone.
I should-a seen it comin'. She took me for a ride.
Still feel the fire burnin'. That's why I can't...
...Stop.
Can't stop fallin'.
I can't stop.
Can't stop fallin'.
I can't stop fallin' for your love.
Can't stop fallin'. Ah.
I can't stop.
Can't stop fallin'.
I can't win.
For losin'.
I can't stop fallin' for your love.
Can't stop fallin'.
I'm a fool for you.
Lovin' after midnight, a shadow on the run.
By the time ya realize, the damage has been done.
You better keep your distance, if ya know what's good for you.
Me, I got no resistance. And that's why I can't... (To Chorus)
Yeah, I'm a fool for you.
I'm a fool for you. Ow!
Little Miss "Cotton Candy" still turnin' hearts to stone.
Candy's fine and dandy, but then, sex don't rot your teeth
I never seen it comin'. She took by surprise.
Still feed the fire burnin'. That's why I can't... (To Chorus)
Yeah, I'm a fool for you. Ooh.
I can't stop fallin' for your love.
(Verse)
If I would have known it,
was gonna come down to this.
I'd take back the first kiss,
that lead to choking on your fist.
Your heart had been broken,
mine too then you ripped it wide open.
Called up your two girlfriends,
told them hurry up and get your ass over here now!
(Bridge)
Said it won't be long 'til I wish she were dead
She had no intentions of leaving without taking everything.
First time in years, you didn't lie to me!
(Refrain)
You took my pride, my dreams, my hopes.
Even my heart when you knew it was broke.
Every single ounce of integrity,
you took all of me.
All of me.
Turned my pockets inside out,
making sure that without a doubt,
you had absolutely everything.
You took all of me.
All of me.
(Verse 2)
Watching as your leaving,
thinking that was so unbelieving.
Now I can start breathing,
but looks can be deceiving.
She is so cold hearted.
Sending me a letter regarding,
the last time we parted,
said she was only getting started.
(Bridge)
I can't believe she still wants something from me,
when she left me here with nothing at all.
How about her paying me,
for my pain and suffering?
(Refrain)
You took my pride, my dreams, my hopes.
Even my heart when you knew it was broke.
Every single ounce of my sanity,
you took all of me.
All of me.
Turned my pockets inside out,
making sure that without a doubt,
you had absolutely everything.
You took all of me.
All of me.
(Verse 3)
Now that it's all over,
I can feel the weight off of my shoulder.
Good thing you're a good liar,
you stole enough of my money to retire.
(Bridge)
I can't believe she still wants something from me,
when she left me here with nothing at all.
How about her paying me,
for my pain and suffering?
(Refrain)
You took my pride, my dreams, my hopes.
Even my heart when you knew it was broke.
Every single ounce of integrity,
you took all of me.
All of me.
Turned my pockets inside out,
making sure that without a doubt,
you had absolutely everything.
You took all of me.
All of me.
Well we had a lot of luck on Venus
We always had a ball on Mars
We meeting all the groovey people
We've rocked the Milky Way so far
We danced around with Borealice
We're space truckin' round the the stars
Come on, come on, come on
Let's go space truckin'
Come on, come on, come on
Space truckin'
Remember when we did the moonshot
And pony trekker led the way
We'd move to the canaveral moonstop
And everynaut would dance and sway
We got music in our Solar System
We're space truckin' round the stars
Come on, come on, come on
Let's go space truckin'
Come on, come on, come on
Space truckin'
The fireball that we rode was movin'
But now we've got a new machine
'Yeah yeah yeah yeah' the freaks said
Man those cats can really swing
They got music in their Solar System
They've rocked around the Milky Way
They dance around the Borealice
They're space truckin' everyday
Come on, come on, come on
Let's go space truckin'
Come on, come on, come on
Space truckin'
Come on, come on, come on
Let's go space truckin'
Come on, come on, come on
Space truckin'
Yeah yeah yeah space truckin'
Yeah yeah yeah space truckin'
Yeah yeah yeah space truckin'
Once upon a day, love walked away
Soon after, I would learn, only never to return
Feeling life was through,
like it was till you, saved me before I drowned,
put me up on dry ground
And I meant what I said, when I told you
I'll never love like this again
I wanna hold you, in my arms, wrap my legs around your pretty self
If only words could explain,
I'd sit and tell you now how I feel about everything
I'd never let you down, and you better believe, you can count on me
I couldnt ask for a better prayer
I'll never love like this again, oh no!
This love is real, so much I feel it so deep inside,
as though our hearts would syncronize
Now since you came and colored up my life
I'd never make it in black and white
although there's those shades of gray
You come around and go away
And I meant what I said, when I told you
I'll never love like this again
I wanna show you, your in my heart, in my soul, your all I want to know
If only words could explain,
I'd sit and tell you now how I feel about everything
I'd never let you down, and you better believe, you can count on me
What does it really mean
I'll never know for sure
To know what to believe
How to know what I'm feeling
I'm going to a place, I've never been before
I just can't help myself, can't help what I'm doing
SOLO
If only words could explain,
If only words could explain,
If only words could explain,
If only words could explain,
(Lennon/McCartney)
Try to see it my way
Do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on
While you see it your way
Run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone
We can work it out
We can work it out
Think of what you're saying
You can get it wrong and still you think that it's alright
Think of what I'm saying
We can work it out and get it straight, or say good night
We can work it out
We can work it out
Life is very short, and there's no time
For fussing and fighting, my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again.
Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long
We can work it out
We can work it out
Life is very short, and there's no time
For fussing and fighting, my friend
I have always thought that it's a crime
So I will ask you once again
Try to see it my way
Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong
While you see it your way
There's a chance that we may fall apart before too long
We can work it out
(Keith, Wheat)
Oh time, when it goes on and on and on again
Like a drop in the rain, like a snowflake in the sun
Fallin' out of the sky on everyone
You and me, everybody, everyone, everybody you see
We travelled so long, seemed like forever
Never mattered just as long as we're together
I've travelled alone, you know it gets so, oh, oh no
The next time, and it goes on and on and over again
Like a drop in the rain, like a snowflake in the sun
Fallin' out of the sky on everyone
You and me, everybody, everyone, everybody you see
You know I've said it before
You're the only one that could make me feel better
I'm lonely, out here on my own
[Chorus:]
Try so hard - I try so hard to believe
Try so hard - do you believe in me
Try so hard - you know I try so hard, try some more, feelin' is believin'
[Chorus]
[Solo]
Now I've travelled so far, but not forever
Doesn't matter 'cos I know we'll be together
I'm singin' this song till I see you again
[Chorus 2x]
Try so hard - yes seein' is believin'
Try so hard - but feelin' is believin'
Try so hard - seein' is believin', feelin' is believin'
Try so hard - again
Try so hard - seein', seein' and feelin' is believin'
Just In Case lyrics
Outside the sky is blue
Always try to do my part
But now it's raining in my heart
There's just so much I can do
It's really got ahold of me
It's why i feel so incomplete
If life's a broken band
Only i would understand
I'll be more than glad to join right in
If only I could pray,
I know what I would say
To whom it may concern
Just in case I dont make it to heaven
I'd like to personally thank you for givin'
Somethin' so beautiful
That makes life worth livin' ,yea
Thank you just in case I
I'm trying once again
But everytime I try to talk to you,
It's like I never seem to get through
I never have the strength to ever put my faith in you
Maybe I should just realize,
I don't deserve you in my life
They say it's in your hands,
That everythings just like you planned
It's good enough for them, so why not me
If only I could pray,
I know what I would say...
Dear god i'm talking to ya
Just in case I don't make it to heaven
I'd like to personally thank you for givin'
Somethin' so beautiful
That makes life worth livin' ,yea
Thank you just in case I
Soon enough the time will come
The hours getting late
The sun is settin' fast and
You'll be standing by the gate
I'm sure your gonna say to me..
(SON WHY), couldnt you just relate
I'll say to tell you the truth, You know I already do
In so many other ways
Just in case I don't make it to heaven
I'd like to personally thank you for givin'
Somethin' so beautiful
That makes life worth livin' ,yea
Thank you just in case I
Just in case I don't make it to heaven
I'd like to personally thank you for givin'
Somethin' so beautiful
That makes life worth livin' ,yea
Thank you just in case I.....

Ever since Chicken Little said, the sky was fallin' down upon his head
I told myself, what a wonderful world
Climb a tree, headin' straight to the pond
Get some pearly walks before they turn to frogs
I told myself, what a wonderful world
Puppy love are behind the law, before you know it it's a big old dog
Left so suddenly, where's that wonderful world?
Just a kid growin' up on a farm, hardly knew what was right from wrong
It's a jungle in this wonderful world
Ever since Johnny went to Nam, he loves his men the way he loves [his arm]
I convinced myself, it's an ugly old world
But seein' school, I was just a kid, someone had to go and shoot the president
He wasn't sleeping when he's going to bed, so they said, so now he's dead
Didn't know much but I knew it wasn't funny
Everybody's crying like they killed the Easter bunny
Nothing changes, never changes, killing in vain
Tell me what it's coming to, tell me what well we ain't gonna do
If it stays like this we'll have nothing left to lose
Saw a picture and it ain't so pretty, from the West Coast to New York City
I've seen the world, it's such a pity, we'll be here on our own
Ever since Chicken Little said, "Humpty Dumpty fell and broke his head"
I told myself, what a wonderful world
Ever since mom she reveal, the tooth ferry nor Santa Claus is real
May be so, mama, it's still a wonderful world
That may be so, mama, still it's a wonderful world
Mr. Trouble never hangs around,
When he hears this Mighty sound,
Here I come to save the day!
That means that Mighty Mouse is on the way!
Yes sir, when there is a wrong to right,
Mighty Mouse will join the fight!
On the sea or on the land,
But we wrote this one, way back in the club days matters
When this was where it's at.
You know, fuck all that 15,000, this was it, you know
And we just love it, and this is the kind of shit we was writin' on the side
'Cos we love to get down fo' boogie
Oh take it away, Frankie, baby!
I wanna ride all around, into the sun
And I won't be back 'til the morning comes
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long
I said come what come, all gather round, 'cos we're all gonna put it down
Get down fo' boogie, all night long, ow!
[Solo]
Mr. Skeoch
[Solo]
I wanna ride all around, into the sun
And I won't be back 'til the morning comes
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, down fo' boogie
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long, yes I do
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long, tell me, how 'bout you
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long
That's all folks!
Philadelphia, thank you very much for puttin' up with us tonight
Got me a woman, won't toke about it
Says she doesn't need it, she can do without it
If I try to push it, she'll say shove it!
Baby if ya tried it maybe you might like it!
Even love it!
Loosen up!
Let's toke it over!
Loosen up!
Let's toke it over!
Always got a problem, she can't lose it
She likes to drive me crazy when she chooses
Baby, if you got it you should use it
Oh, you can play with fire, but just don't abuse it
Just use it
Loosen up!
Let's toke it over!
Loosen up!
Let's toke it over!
Loosen up!
Loosen up!
Let's toke, toke, toke about it
Let's toke, toke, toke about it
Now sticks ‘n' stones'll break your bones
A little tokin' never hurt no one!
Let's toke, toke, toke about it!
Have a toke!
I'm a-tokin' witchoo
Ah, that feels better now
Let's ya feel the groove
Ah, don't stop now
Oh, keep on a-ziggin' and a-zaggin' all over the place
On the bed, on the floor
But then, who knows baby, maybe if we really like it that much
Maybe baby, we can do it some more!
Since we had a toke, no doubt about it, ha ha
Baby's feelin' better, can't live without it
Both our hearts on fire, now we're really smokin'
Mm, all we ever needed was a little tokin'!
Let's toke, toke, toke about it
C'mon! Let's toke, toke, toke about it
Now sticks ‘n' stones'll break your bones
A little tokin' never hurt no one!
Let's toke, toke, toke about it! Ow!
Have a toke!
Let's toke, toke, toke about it
C'mon! Let's toke, toke, toke about it
Let's toke, toke, toke about it
Let's toke, toke, toke, toke, toke, toke, wooh!
Toke, toke, toke, toke, toke, toke, toke, toke
Toke it, toke it, toke it, toke it, toke it, toke it, wooh!
Toke about it for a little bit!
Changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Rearrangin', can't seem to stop the hands of time
I remember, I was so young, I was much too young to see
Now I'm older, growing older, and I see things differently
Oh can't you see, it's changin' you and me
[Chorus:]
Time's makin' changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Time's rearrangin', changin' you and me
Faces, strange faces cloud my mind
Empty traces, make it hard for me to find
Somewhere in the distance, is there someone who awaits
For that moment I am taken over by the hands of fate
Can't you see, the world is changin' me
[Chorus] - yeah yeah
Nothin' ever stays the same, it's always gonna change
I'm on my way, yeah yeah
[Solo]
Changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Rearrangin', always changin', can't seem to stop the hands of time
Can't you see, it's changin' everything
[Chorus] - yeah yeah
You got a bad reputation
That's the word out on the town
It gives a certain fascination
But it can only bring you down
You better turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
Turn yourself around
You had bad breaks well that's tough luck
You play too hard too much rough stuff
You're too sly so cold
That bad reputation has made you old
Turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
I've had all I can take,
The lyin' to my face,
I'm tired of the abuse,
All the excuses that you've made.
They'll be no compromise,
I finally realize,
It's time to cut the noose,
I'm bustin' loose and start livin' my life.
(chorus)
I don't care what ya say,
Ya better get outta my way,
I'm tired of wastin' my time,
Now I'm breakin' free.
I always knew the day would come,
When everythings comin' undone,
Now I've made up my mind,
I'm breakin' free.
I'm done with swallowin' my pride,
And the truth bein' denide,
Ya know it makes me sick,
How your so quick to always critisize,
Ya never find fault in yourself,
Ya always blamin' someone else,
When ya know that it's you,
And it's true that with you it's just a living hell.
(chorus)
I don't care what ya say,
Ya better get outta my way,
I'm tired of wastin' my time,
Now I'm breakin' free.
I always knew the day would come,
When everything's comin' undone,
Now I've made up my mind,
I'm breakin' free.
Everytime I start feelin' down,
I know it's time that I turn this around,
Every time I start thinkin' what we've grown.
I can't believe that it went so bad,
All the times that ya drove me mad,
I can't believe that I stayed with you so long.
(chorus)
I don't care what ya say,
Ya better get outta my way,
I'm tired of wastin' my time,
Now I'm breakin' free.
I always knew the day would come,
Where everythings comin' undone,
Now I've made up my mind,
I'm breakin' free.
(Keith, Hannon, Skeoch, Wheat)
You don't even know, where I've been or where I'm coming from, at all
Who was the one who said nothing's impossible, who was wrong
Who was the one to even say at all, anything is possible
You ask me where I'm going, I don't even know myself
I couldn't say 'cos it's undecided on which way I should go
I don't know!
I've been invited but I just can't make it
Got too excited and I just can't take it
My fuel ignited, got too exited
I've been invited but I just can't take it no more
[Solo]
How am I to show, what I'm feeling deep down in my heart, in my soul
No other way but by a miracle - anything's not possible
I don't know where I'm goin', you don't even know yourself
You couldn't say 'cos it's undecided on which way you should go
Do you know?
I've been invited but I just can't make it
Got too excited and I just can't take it
My fuel ignited, got too exited, I took the message celebrating again
I guess it must have been at least an hour or more
I must've had myself some powerful thoughts
I've been invited but I just can't make it
Got too excited and I just can't take anymore
[Solo]
I've been invited but I just can't make it
Got too excited and I just can't take it
My fuel ignited, got too exited
I've been invited but I just can't make it - at all
Go straight to hell,
All you government personnel,
Sittin' awf'ly well
In your big, white house up on the hill.
You say now, give me a home
Where the buffalo roam,
Where the deer and antelope play.
You can bet your ass we'll blow them all away.
Fuck it up until it's bent,
Then a-wonder where it went.
Thinkin' you was a-heaven sent, ha ha ha,
You're nothin' but hell!
Who's the one that makes you happy?
Or maybe, who's the one always on your mind?
And who is the reason you're livin' for?
Who's the reason for your smile?
I feel so lonely, yet I know I'm not the only one, To ever feel this way.
I love ya so much that I think I'm goin' insane.
I'm goin' crazy, outta my head.
Goin' crazy, outta my head.
Can't think about nothin' but your good, good love,
And what you give.
Now, everyone needs somebody.
And you know, everybody needs someone.
Well, and a-yes it's true!
Everybody needs a specail kind of love,
And your the only one I'm thinkin' of.
You mean the world to me.
You are my only.
I feel so lonely, yet I know I'm not the only one, To carry on this way.
I love ya so much I lose track-a time,
Lose track of the days.
I'm goin' outta my head,
Goin' crazy outta my head.
Can't think about nothin' but your good, good love,
And what you give.
It's not whatcha got, it's a-what you give.
It ain't the life you choose, it's the life you live.
It's only what you give, only what you give, only what you give,
It's not whatcha got, a-but the life you live.
It's the life you live.
Play it pretty for the world.
You're the one that makes me happy. oh yeah baby.
And you're the one always on my mind. And yes it's true.
You are my reason, my one and only that I've been livin for
Why can't forever be... forever and nothin' more.
I feel so lonely, yet I know I'm not the only one
To ever feel this way.
I love ya so much I lose track-a-time,
Lose track of the days.
I'm goin' outta my head,
Goin' crazy, outta my head.
Can't think about nothin' but your good, sweet love,
And what you give.
It's not whatcha got, it's what you give.
It ain't the life you choose, it's the life you live.
No, no, no, no, no!
It's not whatcha got, it's a-what you give.
And it ain't what it's not, but a-what it is.
Only what you give, only what you give, It's only what you give.
It's not whatcha you got, a-but a-what you give.
It's not whatcha got, it's a-what you give. A what you give a woman.
It's ain't the life you choose, it's the life you live.
It's only what you give, only what you give, only what you give....
It's not whatch got, but a-what you give.
It's only what you give. Only what you give. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Only what you give. Only what you give.
Only what you give, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Is that good enough for the girls we run around with?
I do believe so, ohh, ooh, uh-huh.
Only what you give, what you give. Only what you give.
Yesterdaze gone.
Why did she go, where'd I go wrong?
Is it somethin' that I said
That made you walk away?
Yesterday is gone
Why did she go and leave me lost in yesterday?
It's gonna be alright.
It's gonna be O.K.
All I need is somebody to squeeze
To forget about yesterday. And I
Try (try, try) to forget her.
And I'm told
The sooner the better
Yesterdaze gone
Why did she go, where'd I go wrong?
Is it somethin' that I said
That made you walk away?
Yesterday is gone
Why did she go and leave me lost in yesterday?
Day after day,
Night after night,
I'll keep on lookin' till I find a way
To get her off my mind. And you know I
Try (try, try) to forget her.
And I'm told
The sooner the better
Yesterdaze gone
Why did she go, where'd I go wrong?
Is it somethin' that I said
That made you walk away?
Yesterday is gone
Why did she go and leave me lost in yesterday?
It's gonna be alright.
It's gonna be O.K.
All I need is somebody to squeeze
To forget about yesterday. And I
Try (try, try) to forget her.
And I'm told
The sooner the better
Yesterdaze gone
Why did she go, where'd I go wrong?
Is it somethin' that I said
That made you walk away?
Yesterday is gone
Why did she go and leave me lost in yesterday?
Why did she go and leave me lost,
Why did she go and leave me lost, lost in yesterday?
It's the same old song and dance,
You're askin' me for a second chance.
I don't care, baby, what you say,
All I wanna do is gotta get away.
Been too many times callin' out your name,
You promised me, but you never came.
Was it, baby, all a game to you? Yeah.
After all the things that I've done for you,
Say your love, your love, could not be true.
I don't need nobody like you.
So turn out the lights, the party's over.
Turn out the lights, the party's over for you.
This time is the last time, never be a next time.
Tonight I wanna dance to a brand new tune.
You know, it took so long for me to realize
You got a cheatin' heart full of dirty lies.
Now listen baby, I got news for you.
Now don'tcha come knockin' on my door.
'Cause I don't want your love no more.
I don't need nobody like you.
So turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over.
Turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over for you.
This time is the last time, never be a next time.
Tonight I wanna dance to rock and roll.
I guess it must-a been you were so caught up
That you didn't even notice we were fallin apart.
Now you played the game, now you play the fool.
I don't need nobody like you.
I don't want it. I don't need it.
No, no, nobody like you. All I got to say.
So turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over.
Turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over for you.
This time is the last time, never be a next time.
Turn out the lights, the party's over.
Turn out the lights.
Turn out the lights. (turn out the lights)
Turn out the lights, the party's over.
Turn out the lights. (turn out the lights)
Turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over.
Turn out the lights, the party's over. Yeah.
(Keith, Skeoch)
You know I'm on a slick trip, I'm always ready to kick ass
Up on the stage I'm in a rage, I'm havin' the time of my life
Yes, indeed, what a sweet, sweet life it is
Until some loco two-bit floosie with a Louie Le-Strange
Ain't good for nothin' but trouble
They're just two fools livin' up to their names
And now it's startin' to rain on my parade
You know there's nothin' like the real world to get me down
There's nothin' like the world outside that turns me upside down
It makes me feel like I'm headin' down a one-way, dead-end street
[Chorus:]
There's no way out, no way out of this living hell
No way out, no way out, unless you walk heaven's trail
No way out, no way out of this living hell, livin' hell
You know I had it made in the shade, thinkin' that it's not so bad after all
That's when I woke up, smelled the coffee, I'm back where I started again, yes
And now it's pourin' rain on my parade
No there's nothin' like the real world to get me down, no
One is there to lift you up, one to drag you down
Now, don't you see that we're heading down a one-way, dead-end street
[Chorus]
[Solo]
There's no way out, no way out of this living hell
No way out, no way out, unless you walk heaven's trail
No way out, no way out of this living hell - I guess I'll live in hell
[Chorus]
Yes, it's a beautiful thing
I met a little barroom queen down in Memphis
She tried to get me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
But I just can't seem to drink you off my mind
It's just that honky tonk woman
Hey, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's just that honky tonk woman
Hey, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
I laid a divorcee in Detroit City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
And that lady then she covered me with roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind
Son it's just that honky tonk woman
I said gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's that honky tonk woman
Oh, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's that honky tonk woman
Oh, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
It's that honky tonk woman
I said gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues
Why don't you just gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
The honky tonk blues?
The future's on it's way, the past is gone
Old and rusted, with your busted bones
Break the crystal ball, you're on your own
Wipe away the fear of the unknown
Now, here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now
Guilty of communication crimes
Was it just a binge, or was I blind
Overcoming opened up my mind
Don't let the things from the past eat you up inside
Now, here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now
Is it love that you break, or is it love that you make
Is it love we're breaking, love we're making, or love just wasting time
Now, here we go, and it's on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
For takin' a bow, into the now
Now, here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way, just living for today
It's in my sight, and the time is right
(Diamonds, Hymas)
Little Suzi's on the up, looking for a get-away
Ruby tries to bring her down, she's lookin' for another way
Little Suzi's on the up, headin' for the spotlights
Ruby finally gets up, lookin' for some quiet night
Chorus:
And the music makes her feel so hot
Ooh and she'll smile for the camera with all she's got
Don't bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far if her dreams come true
Little Suzi's on the up
Little Suzi's on the up, now suddenly it's not a game
Ruby's got to give up, 'cos Suzi's plainly set on pain
Little Suzi's on the up, cost in cost, your point is made
Ruby's gonna hang around, to make sure Suzi's okay
(chorus)
Don't bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far if her dreams come true
Little Suzi's on the up
(solo)
(chorus)
Don't you bring her down, she's a lot like you
She'll be richer by far when her dreams come true
Little Suzi's on the up, oh yes she is, ow!
Now she's on the up, little Suzi's on the up
Heading for the spotlight, oh little Suzi
Oh and the music makes her feel so hot, go little Suzi, yeah
Ohh, yeah yeah, oh yeah
I'll be lovin' you come morning, day to day, dust to dawn
Feelin' you're the reason I won't be leavin' so
Love you in the evening, supper time and afternoon
Your days of happiness beside the month of June
Ooh, don't want my yesterday, to wake me up, slap me in the face
Ooh, don't let my yesterday, wrap you up and carry you away
Ooh I need your lovin', without you baby love don't mean nothing
Oooh I need your lovin', 's got to be your lovin' or nothing
January, and in March, February, June
Any day beside of that couldn't be too soon
My life without you babe is a heart that's torn
Season of love for you, storm without a warn
Ooh, didn't want my yesterday, woke me right up, and slapped me in the face
Ooh, you let my yesterday, wrap you right up and carry you away
Ooh I need your lovin', without you baby love don't mean nothing
Oooh I need your lovin', 's got to be your lovin' or nothing
Took all my yesterdays of sorrow, and threw them all away
Took all that I could take, or could borrow
'Cos today's yesterday, today is yesterday's tomorrow - whoa!
[Solo]
Ooh, go away my yesterday, can't take that much, I'll look it in the face
Ooh, wish all my yesterdays, would've packed it up and carried it away
Ooh I need your lovin', 'cos without you baby love don't mean nothing
Oooh I need your lovin', 's got to be your lovin' or nothing - whoa!
Ooh, ooh, ooh yeah, it's your love or nothing
Wonderful lady
Such a beautiful baby
Gonna teach him what's wrong and what's right
Gonna show him direction
With love and affection
Gonna make his connection in life
But now things didn't go the way she thought they would
He think's God is the devil and evil is good
He probably wouldn't change it even if he could at all
*CHORUS*
All you know is what you feel
You got to read between the lines
What is not and what is real
You got to learn how to recognize
What you're holdin' in your hands
What you see before your eyes
If you're gonna understand
You got to learn how to recognize
Heart is in danger
Well, love is a stranger
When the fear turns the anger to rage
It's not makin' any sense
'Cause you don't know the difference
Wouldn't know it if it slapped you in the face
Now it's all mixed up
It's all a big mistake
He don't know the difference between love and hate
He probably wouldn't change it even if he could at all
*REPEAT CHORUS*
Why should I understand
When I could not comprehend what you say
Just shove it in my face
But if I cannot be made
I'm gonna understand
But now things didn't go the way she thought they would
He think's God is the devil and evil is good
Tesla-Love Song

With a snap in her style and a click in her heels.
In seconds flat my heart she could steal.
Lookin' ev'ry bit of a where it's at.
More like breakfast, lunch and dinner, as a matter of fact.
Mm. There she stood in living color, standin' all alone.
So I walked up to her, I say, "How do you do?"
And she said, "I don't".
Lady Luck took a walk.
When all I wanted was some company.
Lady Luck took a walk.
You know she walks right out on me.
Hard as it seems, but not as hard to believe.
What can it be?
I guess I'm on a losin' streak.
And I know it's true, I got a bad attitude.
But I'm down on my luck. Bitch, tell me, what's your excuse?
Tell me now.
Lady Luck took a walk.
When all I wanted was some company.
Lady Luck took a walk.
You know she walks right out on me.
Lady Luck took a walk.
When all I wanted was some company.
Lady Luck took a walk.
You know she walks right out on me.
Lady Luck (Lady Luck) took a walk. (took a walk)
What i feel is what i say,
I'm keeping it real so never mind the taste,
Cause i know there's nothing deeper than truth,
So give me the reason not the excuse,
Even the things i can hardly believe,
Is something that i can use,
I'll never be your alibi,
Or tell you what you want to hear,
Knowing that i'd rather die.
Than have my words be insincere,
I GOT NO GLORY,
So i'm gonna give it to you like it is,
If you want to hear the real story,
And not some candy coated lie
COME AND GET IT
To falsify don't make no sense,
I'd rather deal with the consequences,
Cause i know there's nothing deeper than truth,
So give me the reason not the excuse,
Even the things i can hardly believe,
Is something that i can use
I'll never need an alibi,
Don't sell it to me out of fear
I told you that i'd rather die.
Than have my words be insincere
I GOT NO GLORY,
So i'm gonna give it to you like it is,
If you want to hear the real story,
And not some candy coated lie
I GOT NO GLORY,
So i'm gonna give it to you like it is,
If you want to hear the real story,
And not some candy coated lie
Down on the corner, walkin' the streets.
She smiles for ev'ryone she meets.
He's not a man, no, he's just another trick.
She'd do it all just to get that fix.
Did you do it for love?
Did you do it in the name of love?
No, it ain't love she's gonna find.
She's got just one thing on her mind:
Money. She did, she did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.
Cold in the city with the traffic slow.
He's got nobody, no place to call home.
Takin' hard earned money from a poor, helpless soul.
Didn't do it for love.
Didn't do it in the name of love.
No, it ain't love he's out to find.
He's got just one thing on his mind:
Money. He did, he did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.
[Bridge]
And the young girl, she gets down on her knees, she's there to please.
She wants her money.
And then the young man says, "Now, put your hands in the air.
Give me what I want, Give me what I need. Now don't you see?
All I want, all I want, all I want is your money, yeah. Give it to me!"
He's got the money, left the scene of the crime.
Not a clue would he leave behind.
One's bad misfortune make for another's eats.
And now the young girl's trick's his treat.
Money. He did, he did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.
For the money. He did it, did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
Looks so good, from her head to feet
[Body English tights and] to me so so sweet
Got a perfect ten, there ain't no doubt
She's the kind of girl you dream about
[Chorus:]
You know she's got it - she's got everything
She knows you want it - oh but you'll never get a thing
Ooh what you're doin', baby what she's doin' to me
I'm head over heels, for that cover queen
Dressed to kill, this ain't no game
[Checkin' care of bitch 'cos] needs a life of fame
And everywhere she goes, she's the talk, she's the talk of the town
She keeps it clean, but still gets around
[Chorus]
Ooh, head over heels for the cover queen, ohh
[Solo]
Hey there cover queen, you know the time will come
Where you're not laughin', neither one
'Cos the pretty smile will have a brandnew face
Will come along to take your place
You know she's got it, now she's got everything
You know you want it, oh but you'll never get a thing
Ooh what you're doin', baby what she's doin' to me
I'm head over heels, head over heels, for that cover queen
[Solo]
Oh every time I look at you, all I wanna do is get next to you
I see your face in a magazine, the best lookin' bitch that I've ever seen
Every day, yeah yeah, I wait till the morning light
Ooh with a feeling, yeah yeah, something here ain't right
When I think about it now, oh baby, ooh
When I think about all the good times we had
I knew there was something wrong, there was no chance for me and you
Oh now, now I try to tell you baby, there ain't nothing we can do
'Cos I'm no good for you, oh no baby, you're no good for me
Now it's been so long, so long, since the last time I've seen your face
I tell ya, there ain't nobody baby, in this whole wide world
Who could ever take your place, no way, oh no
Now I try to tell you baby, there ain't nothing we can do
'Cos I'm no good for you, no baby, you're no good for me
Oh, what I'm tryin' to say is, we're no good together
You know we can't go on, we can't go on together, no, oh baby
Honey we can't go on, we can't go on this way, baby, oh yeah
Listen to me, oh listen to me, I got something to say, I got something to say
I say that we're no good together, we're no good together
Now what's going round, you're all over town, and you're bringin' me down
[Solo]
Oh baby, we're no good together, we're no good together
We're no good together
Oh baby baby baby babe you know it's just no good
I don't smoke marihuana, I don't take LSD
'Cos I'm a country boy from Nashville, with my boots up to my knees
I like to sit around and be lazy, I like to drink a lot of beer
'Cos I'm a country boy from Nashville, with my hair cut to my ears
I'd like to cut the balls of a long-haired hippy, and tie them up to a tree
'Cos I'm a country boy from Nashville, that's Nashville, Tennessee
Well I'm a country boy from Nashville, Tennessee, so don't, fuck, with me
That's right, they made me do it
Well a hail from Oklahoma, and I don't care who you be...
Take me across the water
?Cause I need a place to hide
You know, I done the rancher?s daughter
And I sure did hurt his pride
Well, there's a hundred miles of desert
Lies between his hide and mine
I don't need no food and no water, Lord
?Cos I'm runnin' out of time
Fightin', killin', wine and women
Gonna put me to my grave
Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin'
Nothin' left to save but my life
So I stood on a ridge and shunned religion
Thinkin' the world was mine
I made my breaks and some big mistakes
By the stealin' when I should've been buyin'
All that fightin', killin', wine and women
Gonna put me to my grave
Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin'
Nothin' left to save but my life
Life, life, life, life
So I stood on a ridge and shunned religion
Thinkin' the world was mine
I made my breaks and some big mistakes
Stealin' when I should've been buyin'
Stealin? when I should?ve been buyin?
Stealin? when I should?ve been buyin?
You know I was stealin?
When I should?ve been buyin?
Stealin? when I should?ve been buyin?
Stealin? when I should?ve been buyin?
Stealin? when I should?ve been buyin?
Stealin?, should?ve been buyin?
Stealin?, should?ve been buyin?
Stealin?, should?ve been buyin?
Stealin?, stealin?, stealin'
Stealin?, stealin'
I was stealin? when I should?ve been buyin?
Stealin? I should?ve been buyin?
Stealin? when I should?ve been buyin?
Stealin? when I should?ve been buyin?
Down to the wire, on the end of the road
Down to the wire, and the kids don't know
Mother Nature's on her knees, and we're the reason of her disease
Hangin' off the ceiling, climbing up the walls
Crawling on my hands and knees to make it through it all
Now we can change or stay the same, one's the answer and the next to blame
Solution is a world of change
If we're gonna make it through tomorrow
Down in the dirt and fallin' out on the street
Crossin' the line myself [to make it to me]
Mother Nature's still on her knees, and we're the reason of her disease
Hangin' off the ceiling, climbing up the walls
Crawling on my hands and knees to make it through it all
Now we can change or stay the same, one's the answer and the next insane
Solution is a world of change
If we're gonna make it through tomorrow
The solution is to make a change today, oh yeah
Make it, I said make it!
[Solo]
Down to the wire, on the end of the road
Down to the wire, all the kids don't know
Mother Nature's down on her knees, and we're the reason of her disease
Hangin' off the ceiling, climbing up the walls
Crawling on my hands and knees, just to make it, just to make it
Now we can change or stay the same, one's the answer and the next to blame
Solution is a world of change
If we're gonna make it through tomorrow
The solution is to make a change today, okay
If we ever make it, now will we ever make it
Through tomorrow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow
There's things that i've bought
And there's things I need
It's more than a thought,
You know you better believe
I feel it's not what you got,
But what your giving back means
So much
Lifes beautiful,
And life sucks
Hey if you like it or not
So what, that's all we got
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!
What if you got,
All of your dreams
But then what if it's not
Everything,
To you that you always thought
That it was gonna be
So What
Life's beautiful,
And life sucks
Hey if you like it or not
So what, that's all we got
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well
So What! So What!
Who cares!
Your telling everybody that the worlds unfair, well
So What! So What!
That's life
It's time to get real,
It's not paradise,well

You gotta see him, are you ready, to take me in and rock me steady
Feel the power, feel the heat, put yourself in the driver's seat
You're in the air, I feel you surround me
I'll do anything that you wanna do - come on!
[Chorus:]
Rock me, rock me (rock), rock me to the top, to the top, baby
Rock me, rock me (rock), don't ever stop, no
I'll take command, take control, now I see you comin' back for more
I see you like it, but you don't need it, oooh, you wanna feel it
I'm in the air, feel me surround me
I'll do anything that I want you to - come on!
[Chorus]
[Solo]
Rock me, rock me (rock), rock me to the top, [says you looked hot] to the top
Rock me, rock me (rock), ohh baby don't you stop
(Rock) I wanna feel the air, the air, wanna feel the air (rock)
It's the same old song and dance,
You're askin' me for a second chance.
I don't care, baby, what you say,
All I wanna do is gotta get away.
Been too many times callin' out your name,
You promised me, but you never came.
Was it, baby, all a game to you? Yeah.
After all the things that I've done for you,
Say your love, your love, could not be true.
I don't need nobody like you.
So turn out the lights, the party's over.
Turn out the lights, the party's over for you.
This time is the last time, never be a next time.
Tonight I wanna dance to a brand new tune.
You know, it took so long for me to realize
You got a cheatin' heart full of dirty lies.
Now listen baby, I got news for you.
Now don'tcha come knockin' on my door.
'Cause I don't want your love no more.
I don't need nobody like you.
So turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over.
Turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over for you.
This time is the last time, never be a next time.
Tonight I wanna dance to rock and roll.
I guess it must-a been you were so caught up
That you didn't even notice we were fallin apart.
Now you played the game, now you play the fool.
I don't need nobody like you.
I don't want it. I don't need it.
No, no, nobody like you. All I got to say.
So turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over.
Turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over for you.
This time is the last time, never be a next time.
Turn out the lights, the party's over.
Turn out the lights.
Turn out the lights. (turn out the lights)
Turn out the lights, the party's over.
Turn out the lights. (turn out the lights)
Turn out the lights, (lights out) the party's over.
(Keith, Wheat, Hannon)
Hold me close now, hold me tight, don't let go of me tonight
You're all I want, you're all I need
Hold me close now, hold me tight, and don't let go of me tonight
Sweet paradise, yeah
How I love all of those crazy little things you've said and done for me
You're the one for me
Darlin', dry your eyes, I can't stand to see you cry
Now just turn and walk away, don't look back when I say goodbye paradise
Days go by and life goes on, I feel I've been away too long
What I would give to be with you, days go by and life drags on
Feel I've been away too long, for much too long, yeah
And all the while that I'm away, don't let our love fade away
Don't you fade away
Now as sure as the sun is gonna shine, the day will come
Now I'm waitin' for the day, there'll be no more sayin' goodbye paradise
My sweet paradise, you are the reason why it tears me up inside
And I break down and cry, didn't wanna say goodbye paradise
I'm comin' home to you tonight, comin' home to you tonight
So hold on tight, tonight I'm on my way back home to paradise
I'm so lost without you, I can't live without you
I've been away too long, now, tonight I'm on my way back home to you
My my paradise, my my paradise
To hold you in my arms, you're all that I adore
To see your smilin' face as I walk through the door
I'll never say goodbye again, no
Stormy night under jet black skies, Billy pulls into town
the thunder rolled and the lightning bolts come crashin' to the ground
Cold as ice, hard as stone, as he walks into the room
With another man who was feeling the same way, all hell's breakin' loose
Bang bang, shoot 'em up, bang bang, blow you away
[Chorus:]
It's a showdown in the no man's land, for the cowboy of the modern day
Come sundown, don't be hangin' round, 'cos the cowboy'll blow you away
Al Capone and the Bad Boy Jones, on the wrong side of the law
Johnny D and his company, always first to the draw,
Gangster lean, feelin' so mean, try to take more than their share
'Cos all they saw was ruling it all, the scent of blood was in the air
[Chorus]
[Solo]
So here we are and we've come this far, but it's only getting worse
Foreign lands with their terrorist demands, only cause the good to hurt
The U.S.A., the U.S.S.R., with their six-guns to their side
I see the message, written on the wall, too much anger deep inside
Bang bang, shoot 'em up, bang bang, blow you away
[Chorus]
Just about a year ago, I set out on the road
Seekin' my fame and fortune, I'm lookin' for a pot of gold
Things got bad and things got worse
I guess you know the tune
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
I boarded on the Greyhound, and I'm walkin' there, by the road
I was just passin' through, it must be seven months or more
I ran out of time and money
It looks like the two were friends
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Man from a magazine, who said I was on my way
But somewhere I lost connection, I ran out of songs to play
I planned many times of one-night stands
It looks like my plans fell through
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
If I had a million dollars for every song I've sung
Or every time I had to play while people slapped their tongue
I know I'll catch the next train
Back to where I live
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
I'm feelin' so much better.
But not quite feelin' fine.
Now, I've got to get my shit together,
Still. Little bit closer to the line.
But I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
It's my way, it's my life.
I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
I'm doin' fine right here on borrowed time.
Needless for you to worry,
No use in losin' sleep.
Now, I really do appreciate it.
For all your concern for me.
But I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
It's my way, it's my life.
I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
I'm doin' fine right here on borrowed time.
Ridin' through stormy weather.
So high I can't look down.
Still I've got to get it together
'Cause I'm lost in the lost in found.
But I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
It's my way, it's my life.
I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
I love those lazy days and crazy nights.
Lazy days and crazy nights.
Give it to me. Lazy days and crazy nights.
Can't do without those lazy days and crazy nights.
I see him there most ev'ry day,
A lonely man and his guitar.
In his eyes, I see the pain,
All the faces and the places,
All the trouble that he'd seen.
There was a time,
There was a day,
They'd come from miles around.
They all knew his name.
But day's gone by are gone,
Now only memories remain.
Then he starts to play.
Suddenly the pain slowly fades away.
Tattered, torn and frayed,
There's a place within his heart
He'll always save for the song and emotion.
Know he's got to his dyin' day.
Song and emotion.
You can hear him play.
You can still hear him say,
Better run for cover 'cause it looks like rain again!
And now his life is but a shadow of his dreams.
The calm is over, been stormin' for years.
He turns and leans his shoulder to the wind.
Lost again!
All along, on his way to the top,
Somehow, somewhere, something was lost.
Through it all he knew his only friend was
Song and emotion.
Know he's got to his dyin' day.
Song and emotion.
Where are they now, where are those people who promised him his dreams?
Where are they now for this lonely creature on the streets?
Broken, humbled by the cold reality.
Life at the top ain't always what it seems.
Oh, better run for cover, 'cause it looks like rain again.
You best be careful of what you dream,
Of what you dream!
Song and emotion.
Song and emotion.
Song and emotion.
