(M. Monroe & A. McCoy)
Exiled in my bedroom
Feel jackhammers in my head
A Southern Russian chill comes over me
Well, I might have just mistaken you for
Somebody who cares
If that's the case, excuse me and let me live
Let me live
* Everything I wanted
Everything I needed
I just went and got me scored
Everything I got and
Anything I tried
But I just wound up needing more *
I FEEL THE EARTH MOVE
UNDER MY FEET
I SEE THE STARS RULE
THE CIRCLE'S COMPLETE
YOU MAKE THE EARTH MOVE
UNDER MY FEET AND MY HEART BEAT
The last thing I remember
Was the first thing on my mind
Your eyes shone like two diamonds
And so did mine
- Another lifetime
* Everything I wanted
Everything I needed
I just went and got me scored
Everything I got and
Anything I tried
But I just wound up feeling floored *
I FEEL THE EARTH MOVE
UNDER MY FEET
I SEE THE STARS RULE
THE CIRCLE'S COMPLETE
YOU MAKE THE EARTH MOVE
UNDER MY FEET AND MY HEART BEAT
*guitar*
I FEEL THE EARTH MOVE
UNDER MY FEET
I SEE THE STARS RULE
THE CIRCLE'S COMPLETE
YOU MAKE THE EARTH MOVE
UNDER MY FEET
YOU MAKE THE EARTH MOVE
Well I?m looking at her
From a rock ?n? roll tower
With the windows, its eyes
And its black stained sides
That can?t be climbed
They?re as slick as wet glass
And the gate lets the force out
But through none shall pass
But when I?m with you
It?s just me in my time
Guess I?ve taken some form
Who knows which time around
One of the reasons
Is to unite me with you
I?m sure of that, baby
If a heart tells the truth
Heart tells the truth
Is it the winged bull
Or the horns of old pan?
There?s Ra unto Isis
There?s woman to man
Sun and the moon
Minus and plus
Zero equals two
In love and in us
Wings of fire
Me in my time
Taking this form
Making this sound
It?s all of the reasons
That unite me with you
I?m sure of that, baby
If a heart tells the truth
Heart tells the truth
Heart tells the truth
Heart tells the truth
Heart tells the truth
Heart tells the truth
Heart tells the truth
Well I woke up screaming 'cos I heard, the telephone ringing
And I told myself that this must be, the end of the beginning
There must be a little more life somewhere else
I heard me saying myself, Take a little more time for feelings inside of your heart
And the crowd gets bigger as the world keeps rolling around
And around and around, Everywhere I go all the people there scream and shout
But somewhere there must be an end, There must be gates that no one can bend
So I'm taking my time making up my mind about our love
I'm willing to cross the ocean, I'm willing to break the ice
I'm willing to break emotions, To make things right
Make everything all right, Well I woke up screaming
I heard the telephone ringing, It was you, I tell you that I love you
I love you, I love you, my baby
I'm willing to climb the mountain, And dive into the deepest sea
I'm willing to give a chance for something real, I'm willing to cross the ocean
I'm willing to break the ice, I'm willing to break emotions
I saw you looking at me in the eye, I was hypnotized, so surprised
A memory from another time, Hit me from behind, where could I hide
Don't touch me, don't ask me, If I remember how I met you
I left you, oh please don't remind me, Forget me, don't kiss me
Don't touch me again, I can't forget, can't forget, can't forget you
And in my mind I think of old times, Sometimes at night I cry till it's light
This jealousy is burning these tears I see, Are slowly killing me, slowly killing me
Now that I've had to face what I've lost, It's time to pay the price for my lies
And in my mind I think of old times, I can't forget your whispers in the dark
Knockin' on my shoulder's some liquor stinkin' jerk
To bother me
Even Rock 'n' Rollers need some peace and quiet
And their privacy
God knows this is not a friend
Just someone tryin' to use me in the end
It's just my situation, my frustration tries to get
The best of me
WHO ARE YOU AND WHATCHA WANT?
WHO ARE YOU AND WHATCHA WANT?
Money can buy freedom but no love, maybe some
False security
You can try to work me, you can't hurt me
You can't fake sincerity
No need to live up to what you expect
Of course I'll give you equal respect
But I don't waste my time with no slime
I don't burn my bridges - maybe just one lane
WHO ARE YOU AND WHATCHA WANT?
WHO ARE YOU AND WHATCHA WANT?
Locked up with a complete stranger
In a bathroom, lost in an eight-ball
With great plans for the world's salvation
Everything I see
I haven't seen this way before
It's not just you and me
Others do agree for sure
Everyone I know
Is so afraid and quite confused
What becomes of us
Should be known to me and you
All that we have found
The infrastructure's breaking down
I see no saviour coming 'round
The final days have come and gone
And more lies become exposed
Beyond the ones we already know - no nice surprise
WATCH THIS - YOU THINK YOU'VE SEEN IT ALL
WATCH THIS - THE BEST IS YET TO COME
SOME REAL FUN
WATCH THIS - I WATCH IT ALL FLOW BY
AND LET NOTHING PHASE ME OUT
Everything's a mess
But my mind is pure and clean
I can only guess
Have they brainwashed, programmed me?
Almost everyone
Is scared of what they might become
Some already have
Made a nightmare from a dream
All that we have found
The infrastructure's breaking down
But all this chaos calms me down
Disorder comes as safe and sound
I'm detached from the outcome
But I still believe in miracles - some nice surprise
WATCH THIS - YOU THINK YOU'VE SEEN IT ALL
WATCH THIS - THE BEST IS YET TO COME
SOME REAL FUN
WATCH THIS - I WATCH IT ALL FLOW BY
There's a place up ahead and I'm goin'
Just as fast as my feet can fly
Come away, come away, if you're goin'
Leave the sinkin' ship behind
Come on the risin' wind
We're goin' up around the bend
Bring a song and a smile for the banjo
Better get while the gettin's good
Hitch a ride to the end of the highway
Where the neons turn to wood
Come on the risin' wind
We're goin' up around the bend, yeah
You can ponder perpetual motion
Fix your mind on a crystal day
Always time for a good conversation
There's an ear for what you say
Come on the risin' wind
We're goin' up around the bend, yeah
For your love, I'd give anything
For your time,...the stars above
And if I ever get you,
I'll never let you go...Oh! No!
Don't deny...
You have seen me before
Realize, look me in the eye, just a while
I've got love, I won't hide it
Now, when I finally found it
Hey you! Hey you! Where did you come from?
A supermarket corridor?
Hey you! Hey you! What's going on?
When I turned my head away...
She had gone the other way
Oh where! Over there! She walks again.
I had to be her boyfriend
Hey you! It's true, baby there I stood
When I looked her in the eye,
She gave me a sweet smile
For your love, I'd give anything
For your time,...the stars above
And if I ever get you,
I'll never let you go...
Don't deny...
You have seen me before
Realize, look me in the eye, just a while
I've got love, I won't hide it
Now, when I finally found it
I've seen you many times before
For each time, you give mean more
I'd like to be always yours
So it's up to you! Please take me home
with you! Oh Wooh!
For your love, I'd give anything
For your time,...the stars above
And if I ever get you,
I'll never let you go...Oh! Oh!
Well you, you're the sweetest thing for you,
I'd give anything
If you're a dream, then let me sleep forever,
Until I get you (Until I get you)
Until I get you (Until I get you)
Until, I get you ooo (Until I get you)
Until, I get you (Until I get you) Baby!
Until I get you (Until I get you)
Until I get you (Until I get you)
I'll be dreaming of you every night...
Beneath the streets, in the cars, on the trains
Or in the underground, I'll be waiting
You can spare a dime or you're gonna be mine
And we're going dancing tonight
In the tunnels, underground
The subway rats run all around and hungry
So come and hide, step inside
We're going on a midnight ride
On the subway, underground
It gets a little rough, this ain't no tunnel of love
Hurricanes running through my veins
I know that you're lost and alone
And I feel no pain
In my sea of drains
In my, my underwater world
Welcome to the ocean
Welcome to the sea, yeah
Welcome to the jungle
Deep inside of me, yeah
Sink or swim, you dive right in
And you know this ain't no place to mess around in
In my swamp, underground
The quicksand slowly sucks you down
Down here, I call the shots, like it or not
What you got I'm getting
You have to come down to my slum
Well, welcome chum, now sit down and shut up
So welcome to the ocean
Welcome to the sea, yeah
Welcome to the jungle
Deep inside of me, yeah
I lay you wide open
For all the world to see, yeah
My, my, my underwater world
The telephone is ringing
You got me on the run
I'm driving in my car now
Anticipating fun
I'm driving right up to you, babe
I guess that you couldn't see, yeah, yeah
But you under my wheels
Why don't you let me be?
'Cause when you call me on the telephone
Saying take me to the show
And then I say, honey, I just can't go
Old lady's sick and I can't leave her home
The telephone is ringing
You got me on the run
I'm driving in my car now
I got you under my wheels
I got you under my wheels
I got you under my wheels, yeah, yeah
I got you under my wheels, yeah, yeah
I got you under my wheels
The telephone is ringing
You got me on the run
I'm driving in my car now
Anticipating fun
I'm driving right up to you, babe
I guess you that couldn't see, yeah, yeah
But you was under my wheels, honey
Why don't you let me be? Yeah, yeah
I got you under my wheels
I got you under my wheels
Well, I have to move in order to groove, I wanna dance, prance step by step now
On the move, Put on my blue suede shoes and dance to this blues
I'm only two steps from the move, now
I'm two steps from the move, I'm two steps from the move, I'm two steps from the move
I keep the nation under a groove
Tryin' to cool down is no use, So I float right down the road
I close the door and it grows and it grows
The music's slowly dying and I'm jumping outta my jeans
I jump into the bed, you're there already waiting for me
Ain't this a perfect way, to spend the night
There ain't no better way, of killing time, than loving you
Be sure of that I do
It's reached top speed, and I'm getting inside of you
This is hot stuff mama, taste it, It sure tastes good
Oh yes, it does, it's maybe cold outside, but in you the fire is burning
And when you bite me babe, love is hurting
Tragedy life reminds me bout, a symphony on the radio
First a little bit too fast, and then a little bit much too slow
Tragedy life reminds me bout, a symphony I heard today
First a little bit too fast and then a little bit much too slow for me
I wake up in the morning and I feel, the pain in my head
If it's rest I need I'd rather be dead, no destination in this life I live
People tell me I'm too high when I'm around, And when I'm not I'm closer to the ground
Well, I do anything whenever I want, And I want to do it here and now
I'm on a one-way street, I can't retreat, 'Cos my mind and I play hide and seek
They want to make a problem out of me, 'Cos they want their own problems unseen
My mind's a gallery of memories, I reflect the history
I'm the sort of case of the human race, That people find hard to face
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec, I'm the Cosmic Ted spaced out of my head
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec, And I'm equal to anyone I've met
I'm the second door on the third floor, If you've got the key then please unlock me
But hey, don't talk to me, I'm not what you see, I'm not here today, I'm miles away
It's twice as much reality when you're, Face to face with history
Yeah its been a long trip, it made me flip
now i'm crawling on your bedroom floor
now i'm climbing up your bathroom wall
and i search i search in this shit i search for the eternal party
is it in my head or is it in my bed?
baby, please baby, I said baby is it here or is it there?
what? the second door on the the third floor
tell me more
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec, I'm the Cosmic Ted spaced out of my head
I'm the living wreck, I live in Tooting Bec, And I'm equal to anyone I've met
and I'm better than anyone you've met! I sing la la la la la la la la la
well i just got back from the outer space, they call me the
Flashing Psychedelic Kid
cos i'm spaced out of my head
you know it feels so good when i reappear, and its so sad
to see yourself disappear, i disappear, when i disappear
Aboard a train, I met a dame
She was a hipster
Man a real gone dame
She wasn't pretty
For New York City
As we strut down on that Ol' Fairlane
With a heave and a ho
Well, I just couldn't let her go
Get along
Sweet little woman, get along
On your way, get along
Sweet little woman, get along on your way
With a heave and a ho
Well, I just couldn't let her go

The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
With a heave and a ho
I just couldn't let her go
I made a stop 'round Albuquerque
She must'a thought, I was real gone jerk
Got off the train at El Paso
A' looking so good I couldn't let her go
Get along
Sweet little woman, get along
Well, the train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
The train kept a rollin' all night long
With a heave and a ho
All these broken dreams
have made me see
That I'm strung out somebody rescue me
Well, do I have to tell you that I love you
Do I have to tell you that I care
Do I have to tell you that I need you to be there
Cause' in the middle of the night
When I'm much too weak to fight
You know you're such a welcome sight
In the middle of the night, yeah!
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Yeah, I talk so bad and I act so mean
On the boulevard of broken dreams
I gotta get back on my feet
And was it only yesterday

Or was it just a while ago
and do I have to tell you, you're my lover
Do I have to tell you, I'm you're slave
and do we have to dance until
you're dancing on my grave
And my lips are turning white
And my jaw is getting tight
And the sun is burning bright
In the middle of the night, yeah!
On the boulevard of broken dreams
She'll eat your heart and she'll eat your face
On the boulevard of broken dreams
I gotta get back on my feet
Do I have to tell you that I need you
Do I have to show you that I care
Do I have to love and steal to have you
Do I have sell myself somewhere

You'll be my queen, I'll be your slave
We're gonna stay away forever
Until we're dancing on my grave
On the boulevard of broken dreams
Boulevard of broken dreams
Boulevard of broken dreams
Boulevard of broken dreams
Boulevard of broken dreams
Me and Jimmy we went out on the streets
There was no place for us in the society
Still selling stolen bikes in the backyards
Smashed windows and fights in the bar
They tried to catch us but we went too far
We had whiskey in a jar and there never was no reason why
'Cause we were wild and free, yeah, yeah, yeah
We gotta break out of our cage
And get to know how it feels
Wild and free, yeah, yeah, yeah
How we ran on the roofs at night
Just Jimmy and me some people are losing and crying
They only care about living and dying
Talk about this whole damn world and still come up laughin'
They called us bums wearin' filthy rags
We used to steal old ladies' bags
Teenangels outsiders, we were the naughty boys
Wild and free, yeah, yeah, yeah
When Jimmy drove off the street
And died in his Cadillac
Well, he was wild and free, yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, me and the boys we're off the track
And never lookin' back
Wild and free, yeah, yeah, yeah
We gotta get out of this place
And get to know how it feels
Really wild and free, yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, much to fast to live a long life much too young to die
We we're laughin' and singing and doing all the things
That we used to do before
We we're laughin' and singing and doing all the things
That we used to do before
We we're laughin' and singing and doing all the things
That we used to do before
We we're laughin' and singing and doing all the things
She would come to me from down in the city offering her love on a plate,
I said I don't want no city emotions where I'm from love is cold, so cold
So she'd leave back for the central, just to never return, Stayed in my sweet suburbia home
Although suburb is cold, so cold, Give me sex, (they) give me drugs
(They) give me all the love they've got, They give me money, they give me shelter
(They) give me everything they've got, Yeah, yeah, I don't want no city emotions, no, no
cos where i'm from love is cold, I don't want to leave for the city
The suburbs is my home, yeah, yeah, Sometimes day's as dark as night
the Suburban natives fight, They got no urban desires
They burn in the suburban fire, My roots is home in the blocks
The roots of the Hanoi Rocks, Suburban winds in the night
Make us know we're alive, oh we're alive, That's what I need
We're gonna snort it clean tonight, i'm smoking
So so give me, give me, Give me sex and give me drugs
Give me all the love that you've got
Give me your money, give me your home
Sweet Seventeen, Your face is from a beauty magazine, yeah , Yes it is
Sweet Seventeen, Your body's an oasis for sex dreams, yeah
It's sometimes hard to understand what you mean
That's when you think nothing matters to me
but I'm tryin' so hard to understand, It's not that easy being your man
You know that I know you'll leave me soon
And I know that you know I been thinkin' of it, too
Sweet Seventeen , It hurts me whenever you are gone
Sweet Seventeen, You really know how to turn me on, turn me on, girl
Alright, Please stop cryin' , 'Cause the whole worlds cryin' with you
Please stop cryin', 'Cause the whole worlds cryin' with you
Oh yes, the whole worlds cryin' with you

I don't ever wanna lose you after all these years
It took a long time to find out who you are, It took even longer to get this far
'Cause there's been bad times, too, Aside of the laughter, yeah
But I hope and think we make it somehow
We're gonna make it, make it if we really try
Make it if we really try, oh, Blow your horn Mike
I went from London to Paris and then All the way to Bombay, yeah
And strange things would happen to me every day
One night I went out dancing, in a beer barrel by the bay
Kids were dancing in a strange new way
They sang, what we want we can't get, So we just try to forget
It's a mean old world, And we need something to get away with
We get the shakes, shakes, 'til all is a blur
We get the shakes, shakes, our brains in a whirl
Every boy and girl is shaking around the world
Now I'm a shaking missionary, Got to get my message through, yeah
Whatever it takes I'm gonna give them, shakes to all of you
You'll be shaking in Detroit city, and on the beach of Waikiki
I'm gonna drive you nuts, 'til you're shaking your butts, along with me
'Cos what you want you can't get, So you must try to forget
Well it's a mean old world, And you need something to get away with
You got to shake, shake, 'til all is a blur
You got to shake, shake, Your brain is a whirl
I hear you calling, calling me on your telephone, yeah!
Saying you don't want to sleep alone...
'Cause you're so scared in the middle of the night...
all night...
I hear you dreaming, dreaming that I will be leaving,
but that ain't what I believe in
It's just a distant, that's growing near, in near
It's just the magic in your eyes...
. Keeps me awake all night...
I've been sailing down the tears for so many years
ain't that enough to prove that I care...
You know I need you, and I'm aware of that you need me too....
We're playing this game, by our own rules
and there's no one to stand in between...in between
It's just the magic in your eyes....
Keeps me awake all night...
I've been sailing down the tears for so many years,
ain't that enough to prove that I care...
I'll keep sailing down...Oh yeah!
Sailing down the tears...
Yeah you know I need you
And I'm aware of that you need me too..
We're playing this game, by our own rules
and there's no one to stand in between
You say you love me, because that is the way
you must feel...
I'll satisfy your every need...
And that's the way it's meant to be, to be...
It's just the magic in your eyes....
Keeps me awake all night...
I've been sailing down the tears for so many years,
ain't that enough to prove that I care...
It's just the magic in your eyes....
Keeps me awake all night...
I've been sailing down the tears for so many years,
I'm heading right to nowhere, 'Cos nowhere's where I'm from
I just passed your trail, Here and today, you were lucky to be in my way
Bring me wine women and whiskey, I'll chase it all down with rum
Once you're turned on, I'll be long gone, 'Cos the road I'm on is endless and long
I'm the rebel on the run, my baby, Rebel on the run, my girl Got you under my gun
My future's buried behind me, I've only got my guns to guide me
Maybe to heaven, maybe to hell, I tell you, only the time will tell
Got you under my gun, my gun, Don't ask what I search for
You never should of an outlaw, I'm a refugee and I always will be
'Til I find what I once lost in me, I've spent my life rambling
made myliving out of gambling, May sound romantic, but it's bitter and tragic
Dead or alive for any prize, I said dead or alive into the night
You need someone to point your finger at
Well yeah, I'm your man, I'm everything you lack
Someone to kick around when I'm down
Maybe steal my credit where success is found
Yeah, one once might've had a hit
But that's yesterday's news, now no one gives a shit
In the void of my depression time
I fought my way back to a better life
BUT I'M SO JADED, DREAMS FADED
IT'S HARDER THAN YOU THINK
LOVED, HATED, FRUSTRATED
I'M THE MISSING LINK
RADIO AND MTV â YOU NEED PEOPLE LIKE ME
I never did pussy-foot around
Or trade King for a day for a lifetime clown
I don't look back or before I leap
I get my kicks and I take the heat
All the same

IT'S HARDER THAN YOU THINK
LOVED, HATED, FRUSTRATED

RADIO AND MTV â YOU NEED PEOPLE LIKE ME!
I SAID, RADIO AND MTV - YOU NEED PEOPLE LIKE ME!
I'm gonna take a holiday, Be somewhere far away, I won't be back for awhile
For a long long time, I wanna get away from the west
To the place that I like best, And where the nights are long
And the girls are pretty
I'm goin' to rock till I drop, Around the clock, And never ever gonna stop
Gonna send you a postcard from Hanoi, I won't be comin' back
So beware, my baby, (Well) I am ten thousand miles away
The Chinese girls make me happy, its enough if i tell 'em
I'm not from the U.S.A., And they believe every word I say
Hanoi rocks every morning, At night I'll fall asleep
To the smell of romance, As I see my geisha girl dance
Round and round the world goes around, I used to believe I was such a happy guy
Now I've found my place on earth, Leavin for Europe just can't be worth
Baby, baby, won't you take my hand, To aikido garden
Well you understand, Propaganda surrounds us
but never mind what they say, I ain't goin' back home, I ain't goin' back home
Chinese guys make me happy, But its enough if i tell 'em
I'm not from the U.S.A., And they believe every word I say
There is no holiday, 'Cause holiday is every day
now, she's fast, she's bad and she's Italian, she makes 100 miles per hour, oh yeah
as we cross the city lights, she takes me higher, she's the hottest one i've ever had, she's just like fire
she rocks around the clock, her motor never stops, till the sun comes up yeah
her engine cries all night with passion and desire, so you turn her on and refuel her with fire
she's got me in a trance, and i'm just getting higher
oil and gasoline, oil and gasoline, that's all she needs to give me head
oil and gasoline, oil and gasoline, to keep our love burning bright, all through the night
oil and gasoline, oil and gasoline, thats all she needs to take her through the night
oil and gasoline, oil and gasoline, to keep her engine burning bright
oil and gasoline, oil and gasoline, she's fast, she's bad, oh yeah

lovers on the highway, lovers on the highway
oil and gasoline, she loves oil and gasoline, oil and gasoline, loves oil and gasoline
she loves oil and gasoline, she wants oil and gasoline, yeah
I love my freedom
And speaking out of my mind
I can see how that could get somebody down
Tho' you can't always see them
You can feel their vicious vibes
They somehow seem to find their way around
And you'll never see me fail
And you can't make me disappear
BEEN OBSCURED BY TOO MUCH DARKNESS
OVERCOME WITH SO MUCH SADNESS
BUT I'M STILL SHINING BRIGHT AS EVER
Nobody can touch me
It's a Universal Law
My kind of spirit just can't be controlled
I can only win
Even if I lose
I always find out something I can use
No use tryin' to stop me now
To overshadow me somehow
BEEN OBSCURED BY TOO MUCH DARKNESS
OVERCOME WITH SO MUCH SADNESS
BUT I'M STILL SHINING BRIGHT AS EVER
The best kept secret in Rock'n'Roll
Harder they come harder they fall
They couldn't mess with my gang
Can't suss our lingo and our slang
They couldn't mess with my gang
My gang's a Rock'n'Roll band
BEEN OBSCURED BY TOO MUCH DARKNESS
OVERCOME WITH SO MUCH SADNESS
Police brutality's scaring half the nation
Juvenile delinquents spread fear in central station
There's no law or order, law or order
Maybe it's total control, oh, I don't know
But they can bend it and shape it and a little bit break it
To make it easier to follow
Criminal activities late at night in the subway
Newspaper headlines all across the nation
There's no law or order, law or order
Every thing's out of control, well, I don't know
But they can bend it and shape it and a little bit break it
To make it easier to follow
Hey, Johnny, where are you going with that gun in your hand?
Don't you understand, they'll just kick you down to the floor
They won't give you another chance, you're all alone
And they're a million, they'll just lock you in for evermore, y'know
Well, the only choice you got boy, is to be nasty
Hate everybody and everybody will hate you
You can bet on that 'cos you know, you can't fight the justice
But the justice can fight you, even if it wasn't you, it's you, Johnny
There's no law or order, there's no law or order
There's no law or order anymore
But they can bend it and shape it and a little bit break it
To make it easier to follow
Yes, they can bend it and shape it and a little bit, break it
The rules cannot be hollowed
There's no law or order
There's no law or order
There's no law or order anymore
There's no law or order
There's no law or order
There's no law or order anymore
Took myself outta New York City
But New York won't leave me alone
I found everything I needed there
In a Deli right down the street
It's always in my blood
The last place I felt at home
Chewing up the great Big Apple
You learn to love the smell of the streets
THERE'S ROCK 'N' ROLL IN NEW YORK CITY
AND LOTS OF THINGS TO GET ON DOWN
LIFE CAN GET HARD IN NEW YORK CITY
BUT I'LL BE BACK TO ROCK THAT TOWN
JUST STICK AROUND
Either I had nails for breakfast
Or the day just wasn't right
Face to face with sheer brutality
Concrete cold reality
Part of me just couldn't stay
Part of me just can't break away
Survivin' New York City
Is an impressive fact indeed
THERE'S ROCK 'N' ROLL IN NEW YORK CITY
AND LOTS OF THINGS TO GET ON DOWN
LIFE CAN GET HARD IN NEW YORK CITY
BUT I'LL BE BACK TO ROCK THAT TOWN
Well, I have a Saturday night drive in a subway train
A lotta speed inside my brain
Shakin' brakin' it loose, the best that I can do
I gotta get out, gotta get out now
I wanna hear my wheels scream and shout
Get out of the subway, get my wheels on the street
And start motorvatin'
Runnin' all alone in a lowdown street
S-s-searchin' for my medicine
And a little satisfaction from a woman is all I need
I gotta pull myself together, hey hey hey, hear me say
I gotta drive rite into the fire and
I'm burning, burning, burning, I'm motorvatin'
I got skintight jeans and high-heel shoes
A leather jacket and nothin' to lose
Gonna rock the nation down the filling station
Don't try to get a ride in my Cadillac
You don't look good enough for that
Sure I am a loner but I'm never alone, I get by on my own
I gotta pull myself together, hey hey hey, hear me say
I gotta drive rite into the fire and
I'm burning, burning, burning, I'm motorvatin'
We gotta pull ourselves together, hey hey hey, is what I say
We gotta pull ourselves together, hey hey hey, now hear me say
We gotta drive rite into the fire and start
Burning, burning, burning, we're motorvatin'
We gotta pull ourselves together, hey hey hey, is what I say
We gotta pull ourselves together, hey hey hey, hear me say
Took too much of this, had too much of that
But with you I never got enough
I thought there'd never be love in my life and that's sad
'Cause when I think what I could've had, it makes me feel so bad
I smoked a lot of sky, drank a lot of rain
Anything to ease my pain
But now your touch is all it would take
And that's a shame 'cause I can never come home again
And you're a million miles away
I'll never get a chance to hold you
So my message is the wind
I pray that it gets through to you
Loving you was so easy
And leaving you was so very hard
And now I live in this ocean of blue
In a corner of a prison yard, I should have listened to you
Now you're a million miles away
I'll never get a chance to hold you
Please don't be thinking of me
Please don't be thinking of me
Please don't be thinking of me
The beat is getting stronger
I can't take it any longer
Every time I try to sleep I wake up to
This beat inside of me
You can't ignore this beat
You have to get up on your dancing feet
You will have no time to eat
The beat is so much stronger than me,
Oh, yes it is
I observe and I learn
Today I have been reversed
And it seems to me now like I'm the
Center of the universe
hey! look at me!
People ask me if I am going insane
But I say it's just this missile in my vein
It comes on hard, there's no stop no start
And it kicks so strong, the kick goes on
Over and over 'til you can't belong,
It's an endless song
One, two, three, it goes on
Ooo Mental Beat, Ooo Mental Beat
Your hero is a zero
And you're just another weirdo
It comes on like a bomber, a long distance drummer
If you can't hear the beat you must be deaf
Hanoi Roxx has got the beat
Boy, they never seem to sleep!
And the only explanation is that
There is no protection
Against the Mental Beat
Dreaming men are haunted men, So please don't ask me to dream of you
I never learned how to pretend, I don't believe, that dreams come true
There ain't no refuge for the restless mind , Oh, No, Love and lunacy are intertwined
Oh yeah, I can't stand your love for me and all that it entails
Cos I am menaced by Nightingales, Cos I am menaced by Nightingales, Cos I am menaced by Nightingales
You Think I'm lonely, You think it's sad
You think your love could rescue me, But I've tried love and it's always been bad
It steals your strength and your sanity, there ain't no refuge for my restless mind, Oh, no
and love and lunacy are intertwined, So I reject your love for me and all that it entails
Cos I am menaced by Nightingales, I am menaced by Nightingales, I am menaced by Nightingales
So I reject your love for me, and all that it entails
I wanna stay in the sun
I gotta have my fun
When the work is done down
The Malibu Beach
And when the winter is gone
I won't stay for long
Just turn the radio on down
The Malibu Beach
I'll find a sweet, sweet girl
A sea pearl, she'll make me burn that naughty girl
I'll find a skinhead girl that Brixton pearl
Ooh, down the Malibu Beach
I'll find a sweet, sweet girl
A sea pearl, she'll make me burn that naughty girl
I'll find a skinhead girl that Brixton pearl
Ooh, down the Malibu Beach
I'll find a sweet, sweet girl
A sea pearl, she'll make me burn that naughty girl
I'll find a skinhead girl that Brixton pearl
Ooh, down the Malibu, down the Malibu
Down the Malibu Beach
Gonna take a holiday down Malibu Beach
i'm gonna take a ride on a magic carpet, gonna fly back to you
i'm travelling in time through black and stormy skies
my mission is a mystery, i'm recreating history
i'm following the stars across the misty hills and the sea
its a long way into your heart, when a million miles keep us apart
i'm on the edge of ecstacy, my carpet is my dream mobile
i do it over, do it over, do it over, one more time
and i make it better, make it better, make it better, day by day
when the paradise is burning, the heaven comes tumbling down...on me
my carpet is my deam mobile, it takes me away, takes me away
no one's seen what i have seen and no ones been where i have been
i do it over, do it over, do it over, one more time
and i make it better, make it better, make it better, day by day
magic carpet ride, magic carpet ride, magic carpet ride
***Andy mumbles something here***
i do it over, do it over, do it over, one more time
and i make it better, make it better, make it better, day by day
magic carpet ride, magic carpet ride
i'm on a magic carpet ride, magic carpet ride, magic carpet ride
(Well) my baby's hot
I mean the way she rocks
Gives her old folks a shock
The way she burns her wheels
Down her home town streets
My my my my my little motorcycle baby
My baby is mean
She's the fastest chick
That I've ever seen
Though she's only sixteen
She knows how to use her machine
And she's so mean
She's sweet sixteen, a leather queen
You should see her streakin' down the street
All the boys are jealous
But they don't dare to tell it
To my my my my little motorcycle baby
On a Saturday night
She goes out for a fight
She beats them black and blue
I don't mean she's cool
But she's so cruel
And she's no fool
No one can stop her
And no one can rock like my little motorcycle baby
my little motorcycle baby
my little motorcycle baby
Baby, baby, baby, ride on, ride on
Could've given her time,
The best years of my life
Wanna give her everything money can buy
could've given her love and a whole lot more
could've givne her everything money can buy
My baby is hot, I mean the way she rocks
Gives her old folks a shock
The way she burns her wheels down her hometown street
My, my my my my my my my my little motorcycle baby
I'M LUCKY, LUCKY, LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO FRIENDS AND LOVE
I'M LUCKY, OH SO LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO PUSH AND SHOVE
I can walk under ladders brave
No black cat ever crossed my trail
No kind of curse could get to me
Only good's gonna come my way
I was born in a video arcade
Graduated to a poolhall shark
Then I was off betting on horse races
Always been a winner, always been a star
I'M LUCKY, LUCKY, LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO FRIENDS AND LOVE
I'M LUCKY, OH SO LUCKY
SOMEONE LOVES ME UP ABOVE
I was lucky for quite a while
But then again I only played with dimes
Mistaken once, but never twice
I never lose when I roll the dice
I'm blessed, but I'm a mess
My best friend could be the Roulette
Some sink and some grow wings
You know, we all got the answers deep within
I'M LUCKY, LUCKY, LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO FRIENDS AND LOVE
I'M LUCKY, OH SO LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO PUSH AND SHOVE
I'm lucky, so lucky
Lucky when it comes to friends and love
Someone really loves me up above
Yeah!
I'M LUCKY, LUCKY, LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO FRIENDS AND LOVE
WE'RE LUCKY, OH SO LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO PUSH AND SHOVE
We're lucky, so lucky
Lucky when it comes to friends and love
Someone really loves me up above
I'm lucky!
Oh, the street is cold
I'm all alone
I've got some money
Don't know what to spend it on
So I take a bus
I see her face
Where did she go?
She was here just a moment ago
I've got love, love so strange
And now my life must be rearranged
So down the subway
The lights kind of make me know
What to do? Yes, they do, oh no
Kill city kills, kills me slowly
Kill city kills, breaks me down
Kill city kills, kills me now, ho no, oh no
I've got love, love so strange
And now my life must be rearranged
So down the subway
The lights kind of make me know
What to do? Yes, they do, oh no
Kill city kills, kills me slowly
Kill city kills, breaks me down
Kill city kills, kills me now, ho no, oh no
Kill city kills, kills me slowly
Kill city kills, breaks me down
I can't get, get any closer, you're so distant, so far away
Am I losing you?
This fix of love will cool you down for a while
I know how bad it was before
You told me we can make it somehow if we really try
But where's the love, where's all the money we saved
Love's floating to the beat on the forty second street
The money killed the love we tried so hard to keep
Remember how love was wild
Remember how love was real
Love's hot, love's an injection
(Yeah, yeah)
Love's hot, love's an injection
(Yeah, yeah)
Love's hot, love's an injection
(Yeah, yeah)
Love's hot, love's an injection
Now that we're out of control, gimme a try, one more try
Am I too young for you?
The city streets look so cold , so don't throw me out
I know things will turn out good
They'll be just like they were before
If we really try, really try
Love's floating to the beat on the forty second street
The money killed the love we tried so hard to keep
Remember how love was wild
Remember how love was real
Don't throw me out
Don't throw me out
Don't throw me out, no
Remember how love was wild
Remember how love was real
Love's hot, love's an injection
(Yeah, yeah)
Love's hot, love's an injection
(Yeah, yeah)
Love's hot, love's an injection
(Yeah, yeah)
Love's hot, love's an injection
(Yeah, yeah)
Love's hot, love's an injection
(Yeah, yeah)
Love's hot, love's an injection
(Yeah, yeah)

I don't care about none
I just wanna drink my ripple wine
I wanna have my good time fun
Have my good time fun, oh yeah, ooh
Oh yeah, when I die don't bother me
Well, don't bury me at all
Just place my livin' lovin' laughin' bones
In a jar of alcohol, a jar of alcohol
I can see by the way you walk
You've never been with a man before
And I can see by the way that you look at me
That you'd sort of like to try it with me
I've got some news for you
Baby, I think your time has come
Hot, hot news for you honey
This time I won't let you run
One of these nights
One of these hot summer nights
I will be calling on you
Will you come?
I'll send my message in perfumed letters
You can't resist me
The damage has to be done
You've got to come right in
You better come right in
And I'll come deep in
Where no one's ever been
Come right in
You better come right in
I'll come deep in
Where no one's ever been
Lonely days, lonely nights
Made me think I'll never ever survive
I've got to get you for any price
I can't get you off my mind
How hard I try
I'll be your guardian angel
I'll never let you down
I maybe a total stranger
But I'll get you in the long run
Baby, come right in
You better come right in
And I'll come deep in
Where no one's ever been
Come right in
Baby, come right in
And I'll come deep in
Where no one's ever been
If you try me once
You'll come running for more
If you try m once
You'll come running for more
If you try him once
You'll come running for more
One of these nights
One of these crazy, crazy nights
I'll lick the sweet summer sweat
From your hips
You may not like it yet
But I bet you'll get wet
It'll be worth every tear you've shed
You've got to come right in
You better come right in
And I'll come deep in
Where no one's ever been
Come right in
You better come right in
And I'll come deep in
Where no one's ever been
Come right in
Baby, come right in
And I'll come deep in
Where no one's ever been
Come right in
In the year '79
Wham, bam, bam, bam
Wham, bam, bam, bam
Wham, bam, bam, bam
Well, it's '79 No '58
'79 No '58, '79 No '58
Anymore, no more
'79 No '58, '79 No '58
'79 No '58, '79 No '58
Anymore, no more
It's too late, much too late
Wham, bam, bam, bam
Anymore, no more
In the real dark night of the soul
It's always 3 a.m.
It's always darkest before the dawn
It never dawned on me
At my weakest I'm pretending to be strong
Sometimes the demons are too hard to control
IN MY DARKEST MOMENT
SOMETHING TAKES ME OVER, MAKES ME TURN A COLD SHOULDER
IN MY DARKEST MOMENT
I NEED A REVELATION, DIVINE ILLUMINATION TO COME MY WAY
Just when I thought I was me
It just wasn't me talkin'
And the last one that I'd ever wanna hurt
Stood right in my way
Hating is easy and loving takes real character
Love ain't in fashion in this hard stone cold hearted world
IN MY DARKEST MOMENT
SOMETHING TAKES ME OVER AND I DON'T KNOW WHY
IN MY DARKEST MOMENT
I PRAY FOR REVELATION, DIVINE ILLUMINATION TO COME MY WAY
(The pain, the grief, the agony...)
IN MY DARKEST MOMENT
SOMETHING TAKES ME OVER, MAKES ME TURN A COLD SHOULDER
IN MY DARKEST MOMENT
IN MY BLACKEST HOUR I NEED SOMEONE TO COME AND HELP TO LIGHT MY WAY
Rosalita, now our summer's gone and you've left me all alone
You know I never expected, no I never suspected that
You came to me to steal my love away
You said I've always been a dreamer
'Cos dreaming is all I've ever done
Just like our summer, I thought it would last forever
But as the autumn came, you had gone away
All the promises you broke meant more to me than gold
Now I'm all alone in the heartbreak zone
And the winter will be cold without you
You said I was a born loser
'Cos losing is all I've ever done
Like when I lost you, it proved that all you said was true
And now without you I feel I'm being used
All the promises you broke meant more to me than gold
And now I'm all alone in the heartbreak zone
And the winter will be cold without you my Rosalita
All there is left is a photograph
You smile and the ice cream's meltin' down your pants
And I keep living on, you're in the past, it's been so long
Since the Ice Cream Summer, it's forgotten now it's gone
Now you're just a memory, don't mean nothing more to me
A photo among others of my old friends and my lovers
And the winter is gone, a new summer's coming on
Oh, hold on, we're gonna make this a big one
I'm checking out my native city
I can feel the blood in my veins
And my nerves are weak and my heart is just
About to, to collapse
Oh, I'm kind of desperate, something must happen
I'll leave for a chance right now
And I'll leave for a rock 'n' roll ride
So come on, don't stop
I want you, it's too fast, yea
I want you, I'm feelin' just fine
I want you, to kill this pressure
It's getting much too high
You asked me how long I've played electric guitar
And you asked for my autograph
And you asked if I mix up my whiskey with water
I tell you be sure
I am kind of desperate, something must happen
I'll leave for a chance right now
And I'll leave for a rock 'n' roll ride
So come on, don't stop, so come on
I want you, it's too fast, yea
I want you, I'm feelin' just fine
I want you, to kill this pressure
It's getting much too high
I want you, it's too fast now
I want you, feelin' just fine
I want you, to kill this pressure
It's getting much too high, much too high
I want you, it's too fast, yea
I want you, feelin' just fine
I want you, to kill this pressure
Well I love you, I really do, And baby when I look at you
I know love is true, You know about my past
You know my habit, You know that love can't last
Until we've had it
I badly need it
You know about my past, You know my habit
You know that love can't last, Until we've had it
Well I love you, well I love you, Well I love you, well I love you
Outta my mind on a Saturday night
Nineteen seventy is rollin' in sight
Radio burnin' up above
Beautiful baby, be my love
Alright till I blow away
Alright till I blow away
I feel alright, I feel alright
I feel alright
Baby, oh baby, burn my heart
Baby, oh baby, burn my heart
Fall apart, babe, fall apart
Baby, oh baby, burn my heart
Alright till I blow away
Alright till I blow away
I feel alright, I feel alright
I feel alright
Outta my mind on a Saturday night
Nineteen seventy is rollin' in sight
Radio burnin' up above
Beautiful baby, be my love
Alright till I blow away
Alright till I blow away
I feel alright, I feel alright
So many things that mean a lot
So many things that I never got
You can look boy but you can't touch
What I don't have seems to mean so much
A beat up Chevy or a Mercedes Benz
Should make no difference in the end
But I get mad, baby real upset
'Cos what I want I can never get
They're just like cattle walkin' down the street
Some get so fat while others never eat
I may be shut out but I ain't finished yet
My mind is blank, I take another drink
I'm not destroyed but I'm right on the brink
I sit and count them shot by shot
The little things that I never got
Those uptown ladies on 5th Avenue
It's like I hate 'em but I want 'em too
I may be shut out but I ain't finished yet
I don't get it, I don't get it at all
I don't get it, I don't get it at all
Why I can't get it, why it's a thing I'll never get
I said, I can't get it, why it's a thing I'll never get
I don't get it, I don't get it at all
I don't get it, I don't get it at all
Why I can't get it, why it's a thing I'll never get
I said, I can't get it, why it's a thing I'll never get
I can't get it, I can't get it
I can't get it, I can't get it
Oh you don't understand, you just sit through my head
I can't get it, I can't get it, I know
A yacht, a Rolls and a private jet
A dirty blonde in a red Corvette
Wife and kids and a house and a pet
All the times I spent suffering in school
Y'know, thinking I was so super cool
And baby, all the teachers gave me so much grief
I wanna blow 'em up just to get some relief
Sister, sister, they call me a parasite
Sister, sister, they wanna bury me alive
All day, all week, all term long
They'd dump on me, hoping I'd be gone
Time made me realize, why should I be victimized?
So I took control and decided to teach
I wanna teach high school, high school, yeah
Listen, I tell the little buggers what to wear
You know, I show 'em how to set and dye their hair
And baby, there'll be no costumes at our swimming pool
There'll be no ugly girls at my high school
Sister, sister, they call me a parasite
Sister, sister, they wanna bury me alive
All day, all week, all term long
They'd dump on me, hoping I'd be gone
Girls who are very bright must stay in class all night
And practice their Biology
I love to teach high school, high school
I need to teach high school, high school, yeah
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Time made me realize, that I could brutalize
And get revenge with impunity
If I could teach high school
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, how I love anatomy
2 plus 2 and 3 plus 3, students have a ball with me
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, how I love anatomy
2 plus 2 and 3 plus 3, students have a ball with me
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, how I love anatomy
2 plus 2 and 3 plus 3, students have a ball with me
A, B, C, D, E, F, G, how I love anatomy
2 plus 2 and 3 plus 3, students have a ball with me
I'm just a white boy,
lived like a gypsy all my life
One in a billion born with a baby-face like mine
Got these boots made for rockin', kickin' ass and steppin' over lines
Passed down to me from my daddy's daddy's dad
In my family tree the fruit is bitter, bold and bad
Got real deep roots, these gypsy boots of mine
Struttin' the fine line, steel-toes sharp just like my mind
My reputation preceeds me, I always get what's mine in time
You can't spike me with the evil seed of doubt
You can't tell me what my life could be about
'Less you've walked in these gypsy boots of mine
These gypsy boots, they don't wear down
It's in my blood, I roam around and around...
I'm the original rock'n'roll cliché,
Gypsy pirate cowboy
You wouldn't last a minute in my boots
'Cos baby, I'm the real McCoy
Can't decide if it's a blessing or a curse
Can't see how it could be getting any worse
Can't shake loose these gypsy blues of mine
All tied down to these gypsy boots sublime
My little lover's gonna be another
Copy of Raquel Welch
I'll build her a house and a maid named Jill
And spend tha rest of my life down in Beverly Hills
I'll never have to feed her
And she'll stay pretty all the time
Oh, yes she will
I love the way she's gonna rock and roll
From the early morning 'til late at night
Non stop rock 'n' bop and she'll never ever die
When I want money she can go to work
As a roadie for Adam Ant
And if he comes on strong he'll in for a shock
'Cos she'll open his face and clean his clock
I'll never have to feed her
And she'll stay pretty all the time
Oh yeah
I love the way she's gonna rock and roll
From the early morning 'til late at night
Non stop rock 'n' bop and she'll never ever die
Rock 'n' roll
My little girl, the best in the world
Softer than steel, she's alarmingly real
My mechanical girl, my satanical pearl
You're the best in the world
Wild thing, I think I love you
My little lover's gonna be another
Copy of Raquel Welch
I'll build her a house and a maid named Jill
And spend tha rest of my life down in Beverly Hills
I'll never have to clean her
And she'll stay pretty all the time
Oh yeah
I love the way she's gonna rock and roll
From the early morning 'til late at night
Please operator, please operator
This is the first time I'm with a woman
Well, years can change
And we become much older
Oh, but we don't always realize
And it becomes harder and harder
Soon I'll be too old to be a debutante
I'm hangin' up my telephone
How come you don't ever come?
How come you don't ever come?
I'm hangin' up my telephone
How come you don't ever come?
Tonight will be the first time ever
That I'll fall in love with the things we can do
Tonight will be the first time ever
That I'll get to know the things we can do
We'll take a break, our line's engaged
No one can stop me now
Well, comin' in, it thrills me so
Never ever let me go, never let me go
Go, go, go, year can change
And we get older and older
Soon I'll be too old to be a debutante
And it becomes harder and harder
Don't leave me hangin' on the telephone
Please, don't leave me hangin' on my telephone
How come you don't ever come?
How come you don't ever come?
Oh yeah, please operator
I've been drinkin' quite a lot lately
Been thinkin' of the times when you made a star
Times do change and we must rearrange our lives with it
I'd like to send you a postcard but still
Don't know your address, don't remember your name
It's funny how your face is still in my eyes, hidden by a tear
I do believe in that one day you'll rise again
I'll always keep on believing, it gives me strength to carry on
The nights are wearing me down
And it's hard getting through the day
'Cause I need you right now
And right now you're so far away
I guess that I should have known
That I'd end up this way
But I swear I'll come home
And then nothing will drag me away
Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
If you leave me you will kill me now
Now that so much time has passed
I know that this love of ours will last forever
'Cause we feel it, keep it, hold it and believe it
You need me like I need you
I know you do, I'm sure you do
The lights are slowly going down
On Lexington Avenue
And me, I'm all alone feeling the tears
Falling down from my eyes
A subway train is passing by
Driving into the darkness
I jump inside 'cause I ain't got
Nowhere to sleep tonight
Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
If you leave me you will kill me now
I was forcing myself just to walk through the day
When all I really wanted to do was curl up in a corner and cry
Nothing had any meaning and I just think
Let's give it another day and see if anything happens
Then you came along like my own ray of sunshine
And made me feel warm, safe and alive again
Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
If you leave me you will kill me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
Don't you ever leave me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
If you leave me you will kill me now
Don't you ever leave me, baby
don't you ever leave me baby, don't you ever leave me now
don't you ever leave me baby, if you leave me you will kill me now
the lights are slowly going down, out on Times Avenue
and me, i'm all alone, watching the rain falling down on my face
a crowd of people passing by, i don't think they recognize me
they fade away into the night, thats when i think about you
don't you ever leave me baby, don't you ever leave me now
don't you ever leave me baby, if you leave me you will kill me now
i start living in the memory of you, i start living in the memory of you
i start living in the memory of you , and the memory of all them things
that you and me used to do, yeah, and there's one more thing i wanna tell you
i wanna tell you how much i really love you, and i really do
the lights are slowly going down, out on Times Avenue
and me, i'm all alone, watching the tears falling down on my face
a subway train is passing by, driving into the night
i jump inside cause i ain't got nowhere to sleep, that's when i think about you
don't you ever leave me baby, don't you ever leave me now
don't you ever leave me baby, if you leave me you will kill me now
i start living in the memory of you, i start living in the memory of you, i start living in the memory of you
and all them funny things, that you and me used to do
you remember, you remember all them things, that you and me used to do
don't forget, don't bloody never forget, don't you ever leave me baby
don't you ever leave me now, don't you ever leave me baby
if you leave me you will kill me now
i start living in the memory of you, i start living in the memory of you, i start living in the memory of you
and the sweet taste of your lips, and the sweet taste of your body
Well, she used to be an ordinary cowgirl
She could handle her daddy's gun when she was young
And I never believed she'd turn out to be an outlaw
Now she is the rebel on the run
Now she's a stranger, always in danger
A black angel on the run
But I'm gonna get her, I won't let her disappear out of my life
Like she's always done before
Got a shotgun by her side, gunpowder in the fires and boy, as she rides
She just eliminates troubles times with her knives
She's a suffragette and she'll always be a refugee
Seems like she's always been the black sheep of her family
Now she's a stranger, always in danger
A black angel on the run
But I'll never get her, will I ever learn?
She'll repeat the lines I've heard so many times before
She says, "Don't follow me, I'm lost too
Don't follow me, I'm lost too
Don't follow me, I'm lost too
Baby, I'm lost just like you
Yeah, I'm lost just like you
Don't follow me now, yeah"
I recall she got lost already at the age of seventeen
Her daddy told, she was always in the wrong company
She was my teenage love, the queen of the big, big rodeo
And I remember what she was always tellin' to me
Yeah, yeah, and I remember what she was always tellin' to me
Oh, she said, "Don't follow me, I'm lost too
Don't follow me, I'm lost too
Don't follow me, I'm lost too

Times, they've been changin' lately as you can see
Time's been changin' both you and me
You say you'll leave me, leave me for good
Maybe you're right, baby, maybe you should
Devil woman rides on the wind, she'll leave you in the wings
Evil woman, my dreams are now reality
You just ain't no good for me, woman
You just ain't no good for me, girl
Times, they are harder than they were before
It's time for you to close the door
'Cause you hurt me real bad
You made me cry, boy, you made me sad
Devil woman rides on the wind, she'll leave you in the wings
Evil woman, my dreams are now reality
You just ain't no good for me, woman
You just ain't no good for me, girl
You just ain't no good for me, woman
You just ain't no good for me, girl, oh, devil woman
Devil woman rides on the wind, she'll leave you in the wings
Evil woman, my dreams are now reality
Visions from the sky came falling on me
Asked, "Is this a nightmare that I see?"
Saw my woman with another man, saw our love slidin' through my hands
I know you were lonely till you found yourself with us
Now we're the only company you need to find comfort
In the night bank robbery is your life
We gave you a knife, we gave you a Smith & Wesson
We gave you ourselves to trust on, women get out of our way
'Cause if you stay you gotta pray for your lives
We came today to check out the situation
But we'll be back soon in full attack
Tonight we'll drink till dawn as we sing our outlaw songs
Ten thousand heartaches, baby
Ten thousand heartaches now
Ten thousand heartaches, baby
Could never break this cowboy heart of mine
We kill the men and rape all the women
Sometimes we even shoot down the children
Outlaws don't feel no pity and outlaws is what we are
We both come floating down the street
We shoot down anyone we see
Outlaws don't feel no pity because of what we are
Desperados
Ten thousand heartaches, baby
Ten thousand heartaches now
Ten thousand heartaches, baby
Could never break this cowboy heart of mine
We are the desperados
We brought the death to El Dorado
We are the desperados
We're like tornadoes
Ten thousand heartaches, baby
Ten thousand heartaches now
Ten thousand heartaches, baby
Could never break this cowboy heart of mine
This town won't ever rise up again and you'll never see us again
And the woman who tried to break my heart
Now her head and body are apart
The tales we tell for generations to come about the fires
And somewhere in the night you can still hear the melody
But it's the memory that's scaring you
Ten thousand heartaches, baby
Ten thousand heartaches now
Ten thousand heartaches, baby
Goodbye
So now you're leaving
I hope you're feeling
Real good about it
And will not doubt it
When you're without me
And the pain hits back
No more
No more new music
No more tapes I'll make
To help share this lonely heartache
If that's you want
It's only you I want
As it's only human
If your mind should change
You find out about your friends
When you're out on the leap
It's hard to socialize when of you is all they speak
Can't find no place to hide
When trying to be discreet
With my designs on you
So wrong... But
It just feels so right
When we hold tight
Everything is alright
And this with all my might
I try believing
If that's deceiving
Then I'd rather lie
You could go surfing on the tears that I have cried
No matter how I try I can't say the last goodbye
The love in my heart can't deny
To hide my designs on you
No harm
I meant for no one
And I don't owe one
To myself or no one
I'm on my own now
You might be alone now
Well, I'm still here with
No one in the world likes me
No one gets it right with me
No one knows what I'm about
That's why I just scream and shout
No one stands up for the real me
YOU DON'T TAKE ME SERIOUS
SAY I'M JUST DELIRIOUS
I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE
I'M JUST IMPOSSIBLE
I'M JUST DELIRIOUS
Well I hope someone up there loves me
Don't know where I've been lately
Close my eyes and I see red
Was it something I just said
Maybe I'm going out of my head
YOU DON'T TAKE ME SERIOUS
SAY I'M JUST DELIRIOUS
I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE
I'M JUST IMPOSSIBLE
I'M JUST DELIRIOUS
No one knows what I'm about
That's why I just scream and shout
I'm going out of my head
YOU DON'T TAKE ME SERIOUS
SAY I'M JUST DELIRIOUS
I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE
I'M JUST IMPOSSIBLE
(P. Lynott & J. Bain)
Dear Miss Lonely Hearts
I had to write this letter
To tell you how I came to meet her
She was sweet but I dated her sister
That's how I made my mistake
And I can't forget her
I felt depressed
'Til a friend of mine suggested
That I write to this address
So unless you can find a cure
For my loneliness
It will presist
It will presist
LONELY BOY
LOOKING FOR ANOTHER
LONELY GIRL
TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER
LONELY HEARTS
TURN TO EACH OTHER
LONELY SOULS
Dear Lonely Boy
I doubt if my reply will bring much joy
It seems from your letter that you lied
Or strongly implied
That you were satisfied
To take her sister by your side
I became distressed
At your total lack of tactfulness
So at best all I can suggest
Is that you resist and you put an end
To such thoughts of silliness
LONELY BOY
LOOKING FOR ANOTHER
LONELY GIRL
TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER
LONELY HEARTS
TURN TO EACH OTHER
LONELY SOULS
*guitar*
Dear Miss Lonely Hearts
I've got problems
You're the only one that I know that can solve them
I love a girl but I'm dating her sister
If I presist in my pursuit I will kiss her
Dear Lonely Girl
I doubt if this reply is gonna bring much joy
But you must not trust this boy
You must not lust this boy
Resist and do not kiss this boy
LONELY BOY
LOOKING FOR ANOTHER
LONELY GIRL
TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER
LONELY HEARTS
TURN TO EACH OTHER
LONELY SOULS
LONELY SOULS...
Friday is the 13th to 24th
It's not so long to go
Though my face don't show
My temperature it's gettin' too low
I've seen it all in a dream
I know just how it's gonna feel
Like not to be alive anymore
I'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
Tell me, will you remember me that day
When you've found a new one
Who's better than I ever was?
I'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
Please give all my things away
They'll make great Xmas presents for you
And for all my friends
It hurts so inside to see you with another
From the edge of a cloud
Whatever happened to the promises that you gave
Before the angels took me away
So, here I'm all dressed in white
While you're drinking up my best red wine
And you don't realize that
I'm with you all the time
I'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
Tell me, will you remember me that day
When you've found a new one
Who's better than I ever was?
I'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
Please give all my things away
They'll make great Xmas presents for you
And for all my friends
It's getting so lonely without you
And I'm sure, I am jealous too
To see another man in my bed
Be sure I can't get no rest
Before you're up there with me
Come up, come up, come up, come up
I've been dead since Xmas now anyway
So, leave the flowers on my grave
There's sure a way you could join me
Any day around now, honey
You'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
You'll lay beside me in our family grave
We'll be making love eternally
In a spiritual way
We'll be dead by Xmas now anyway
We'll sell everything away
[Incomprehensible]
Dead by Xmas, dead and gone
Xmas is forever
Dead by Xmas, dead and gone
London is gray but it's great in it's way
If you're just barreling through
You find a first class boiler
And she boils your cares away
Well, life is a gas but the laughs never last
So you add a handful of blues
Now, that's a first class ticket if you wanna get away
'Cos if you hang around the grays and browns
They'll just bring you down
Well, it's a useless rap you got to cut the crap
Go directly to the things that matter to you
Have to cut corners or fade away, have to cut corners or fade away
Going through channels in ties and gray flannels
Just slows everything down
And when I want a thing, I want it right away
Going straight for the heart, tears your wardrobe apart
But it wears the other guy down
I don't wanna hurt you, I don't wanna see you cry, I don't wanna hurt you once more, I don't wanna leave now
I don't want no sight for sore eyes, Gone sore of all the tears that we cryed
hey come here with the guitar! OK!
Recall the times we met, so wild and free, we had our ups and we had our downs
and the sweet sweet Rock'n'Roll playing on the Radio
We grew up and learned the rules, you gotta fight to win otherwise you'll lose
oh Cheyenne you imprisoned me in liberty, never ever showed me no sympathy
Remember that nite, how you made me cry, I almost lost my mind, when it appeared
that the winner was you, and the loser was me, that nite, that endless lonely nite
I just can't think of you, with another man, oh Cheyenne you must understand
But now:, Stay right where you are, I'll pick you up anyway, any day around I'll be with you
you don't have to worry, no you don't have to worry, baby don't you worry
you don't have to worry no more
You told me that I'm to sensitive, but I didn't ask for sympathy, all I wanted was to love you softly
with the sweet sweet Rock'n'Roll, playing on the Radio
I tried hard to fight my feelings down, I tried to hide 'em inside, tried to push your love away
but you must have seen the fire burn in my eyes it's still burning
It's hard to believe, we lived it through, I can't believe we can't relive it, but if you see me walking down the street
I was feeling hungry, I didn't have no money, no
But I was like you'd say, "Off the hook"
And sometimes it hit me quite hard
I started searching for, for what I don't know
I suppose I started searching, searching for money and fame
Yes, I wild, wild, wild, wild through the night
Sometimes blind, blind, blind until it was light
But it was my life
I got prostituted, I just had to get some money, y'know
But let me tell you the more I got the faster it went
Sometimes there's the danger of not getting paid
But sometimes I was out all night offering the service I gave
Yes, I was, yes, I was wild, wild, wild, wild through the night
Sometimes blind, blind, blind until it was light
Cafe Avenue, I'm comin' back to you once more
To see the same old fools and freaks
Sitting at the same old tables
Cafe Avenue, I'm comin' back to you once more
You still remember how bad, things were once before
It makes no difference how you are, it makes no difference how you look
In the Cafe Avenue
But now, I've found a shelter
And things have turned out much better, yeah
Oh, let me tell you, nowadays it's so easy to look back
Sometimes there's the danger of not getting paid
Sometimes I was out all night offering the service I gave
Cafe Avenue, I'm comin' back to you once more
To see the same old fools and freaks
Sitting at the same old tables, yeah
Cafe Avenue, I'm comin' back to you once more
You still remember how bad, bad things were once before
It makes no difference how you are, it makes no difference how you look
Me boiler's walking down the street
High heels, lips of a beauty queen
When I look her in the eyes
I never tell no lies
No, no, no, no, no
Life took a sudden turn
When she made my poor heart burn
I used to be a lonely bloke
I thought romance was a joke
Yeah, yeah, ye, ye, yeah
She's me boiler and I love her so
Never ever gonna let her go
I'm her boy and her toy's in my pants
Ronettes are on the radio
And we always sing along
She's the first bird on me list
She makes me have one off the wrist
Yeah, yeah, ye, ye, yeah
When me boiler starts to scream and shout
I whisper "Doll do leave it out"
I have a booze-up with me mates
And I don't come home 'till late
Me boiler and me
Me boiler and me
Me boiler and me
(M. Monroe & A. McCoy)
Now that I'm alright
Why don't ya hang out with me tonight?
Now that I see straight
I know tomorrow's a much better day
Now that we're back down on the ground
Where's all the fairweather hangers around?
Now that my life is sweet as wine
So exquisite, indeed divine
* Well the bitch's still bitchin'
The hooker keeps-a-hookin'
The hustler keeps-a-hustlin'
And the cops are out to bust 'em
But me, I've regained my will to live
A clean life with you my friend *
LOVE'S A BETTER HIGH
LIFE'S A BETTER HIGH
LOVING LIFE'S THE BETTER HIGH!
Oh honey, you're so sweet
How come it took us so long to meet
So very special indeed
You're the one that I'll never leave
Forget my notorious past
What doesn't kill you makes you last
As love will last for you and me
So very true to the point of extreme
* Well the bitch's still bitchin'
The hooker keeps-a-hookin'
The hustler keeps-a-hustlin'
And the cops are out to bust 'em
But me, I've regained my will to live
A clean life with you my friend *
LOVE'S A BETTER HIGH
LIFE'S A BETTER HIGH
LOVING LIFE'S THE BETTER HIGH!
Hey, let's get out tonight
Let's celebrate our life in love
Such a great gift from above
Now and forever in the kingdom of love
Well, I met her yesterday
She just came into my way
And I was so surprised
She told me that she loved me
Always would be true to me
Never tell no lies to me
She said her love was free
And I thought that I might
Just take a chance on her
Try hard to get into her
You know what I did?
I told her that I love her
Told her that I care
I said I'd be free to ride
And to do it anywhere
Never want no love affair
I just like the clothes you wear
There's one thing I gotta do
Before I kiss you
(I wanna beer and a cigarette)
I've got to get myself an ice cold beer
(I wanna beer and a cigarette)
And I need a cigarette, well I
I didn't come here for no fix, I just need a beer
(I wanna beer and a cigarette)
Oh babe, I got to get myself
(I need a beer and a cigarette)
Lord, there's only two things on my mind
(I wanna beer and a cigarette)
Too much ain't enough
(I need a beer and a cigarette)
Late at night as I lay down to sleep
I think of all the secrets people keep
like how I feel for you
Do you feel it too
or is it something we have to resume
We're just two people watching time fly by
In a world in its obvious decline
But we are young and strong
We can carry on
Find a little Paradise of our own
'COS NO ONE SAVES THE DAY
IT'S NO ONE ELSE'S FAULT
IF YOU'RE A DAY LATE OR A DOLLAR SHORT
Just think about how lovely life could be
Excluding all the man-made misery
If we're too far behind
And really out of time
Is there another world they plan to find?
TOO MANY DREAMS OF YOUTH
THAT WE NEVER CAUGHT
JUST A DAY LATE OR A DOLLAR SHORT
We're all just lonely people
Only dyin' to fall in love
FEELINGS THAT WE THOUGHT
DREAMS WE NEVER CAUGHT
JUST A DAY LATE OR A DOLLAR SHORT
THE LONELINESS, THE BLUES
FEELING SO DISTRAUGHT
WHEN YOU'RE A DAY LATE OR A DOLLAR SHORT
TOO MANY DREAMS OF YOUTH
THAT WE NEVER CAUGHT
JUST A DAY LATE OR A DOLLAR SHORT
AND NO ONE SAVES THE DAY
IT'S NO ONE ELSE'S FAULT
Oh, yeah
Well, I don't care about the victory
If I can still have your company
I don't need a golden diamond ring
As long as you still let me in
I never dream of being a millionaire
Money can't buy a love affair
True love is such a rarity
It lives all through eternity
The nights we share, it seems they'll never end
Oh Lord above, she must be heaven sent
I know you and you know me
That's the way it was meant to be
I know you and you know me
I know that you will always stand by me
If I'm down in the hole
Or out in the streets
Nothing else matters baby
If it's you and me
I pick up my guitar and I start to sing
About all the troubles that I've been in
Now the clouds have finally disappeared
Go straight ahead the road is clear
It ain't so easy baby, when you're all alone
Now I'm glad I kept on rolling on
I know you and you know me
That's the way it was meant to be
I know you and you know me
I know that you will always stand by me
If I'm down in the hole
Or out in the streets
Nothing else matters baby
If it's you and me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's beating faster and faster
And it doesn't seem to stop
Well, I'm so crazy about you
When I look in your eyes, I realize
The kind of love that never dies
Girl I love you, I really do
My heart will always be true to you
Oh, don't be a fool, we're gonna prove
With real love, we can never loose, never loose
I know you, and you know me
That's the way it was meant to be
I know you, and you know me
I know that you will always stand by me
If I'm down in the hole
Or out in the streets
Nothing else matters baby
If it's you and me
Yeah, yeah
I know you and you know me
That's the way it was meant to be
I know you and you know me
And that's the way it's always going to be
Accidents happens about everyday but
That day special followed by a heat wave
Rush hour just began, I ran for my life, I can't afford
To miss the bus or I'll go and miss all the fuss
'Cos this time it's a must
I'm gonna meet the boys and Suzy
I just can't miss her tonight
Tonight I'm so hot, gee, I'm so hot
Well, is she tight?
Is she in need of a lover like me?
Oh, there she is now
I gotta go and give her a great big kiss
And now that I'm in her I don't wanna lose her
These moments are takin' me to heaven
But they don't seem to take her anywhere at all
I wonder what is wrong, please, tell me what is wrong
Remember all them nights, we wrote on the walls
That 'Punks never die', hot love in the nights
The days we spent underground
Accidents happens about everyday
But that day special 'cos Peter was taken away
And Suzy, she moved to another town
So here I'm all alone in the summer heat
Looking at this empty street, all here's left
Is writings on the walls, I wonder were all the
I'm in a problem, can't find a solution
Problem, give me the solution,Problem, I'm causing confusion, Problem
Energy pushing in my blood,I could kill myself but I haven't got the guts,Oh no
Well it's a Saturday night,I got nothin' to lose,
I'm all out of money,I'm all out of booze
I'm walking down the street, I'm in the need of blues
Problem child, and I'm wild, I'm in the need to break all the rules
Alright
I don't need no diamond rings
I don't need no Cadillac car
I just wanna drink my ripple wine
Down in the Lightnin' Bar
Well some men value fortune and fame
I don't care about none
I just wanna drink my ripple wine
I wanna have my good time fun
Have my good time fun
Oh yeah, ooh
Oh yeah when I die don't bother me
Well don't bury me at all
Just place my livin' lovin' laughin' bones
In a jar of alcohol
A jar of alcohol
Everybody now
In the Lightnin' Bar
pipeline is an instrumental song
All right now, Well ain't no dime, being down
Who would ever try to put me down
When I'm walking, walking with my angel
'Cause every guy I see, Is wishin' that he were me
Now when I'm walking, walking with my angel
When we're rollin' hand in hand, I'm as happy as can be
'Cause she's the prettiest girl in town
And everyone can see she belongs to me
And I feel so proud, It's as good as walking on a cloud
(Now) When I'm walking, walking with my angel
Monster time again
You see people on the streets
The talk of the town
Wherever you go to
They come to your home
They operate you by the telephone, you know
Coca cola propaganda
Religion, a cult they're telling you
They're telling you it's the only truth
Oh yes they do
You try to escape
But there's nowhere to hide
So you turn on your tv screen
It's black and white, politics all night
But who really pays the bill?
Nothing new going on inside of you
You see people on the streets
The talk of the town wherever you go to
There's not a place to run to
They never let you go
I'm not sorry 'bout the things that I've done to you
I'm not sorry, I never felt this good
All I wanted was to get to you
And hurt you for a while
I'm a trespasser in your company
Looks like it's me who fill your thoughts and your diary
Just as fast as my moment comes
I'll turn out to be a memory
The day I came was the day I left
Now you're just like all the rest
I only take I take the best
Like you used to be, now you're left in lunacy
I'm just a visitor, visitor, visitor, visitor...
I'm not sorry 'bout the things that I've done to you
I'm not sorry, I never felt this good
All I wanted was to get to you
And hurt you for a while
My romance, you're in a trance
I'll destroy all of your plans
Just as fast as my moment comes
I'll turn out to be a memory
The day I came was the day I left
Now you're just like all the rest
I only take I take the best
Like you used to be, now you're left in lunacy
You look like a village girl to me
But you stepped into my life from a magazine
You were like a village girl to me
But you walked into my life off the record machine
Oh village girl, village girl
Yes, you sure make me hot
You can't imagine all the things I'd do
If I'd only get a night to share with you
If I call you, tell me would you come, Baby
Would you try me and check out
How good, how good I really am
You became a legend in my life
When I saw you in a picture topless, you were topless, Mama
Oh yes, your music means a lot to me
But your face and your body, they drive me crazy
The only love that exists to me is sex
And thats what i'd like to share with you
My imagination always runs away with you
When i'm with any of my girlfriends i imagine i'm with you
And the morning after when I had left yeah
The only thing between us two would be the memory
Instrumental
I'll be a taxi driver for you, honey, Take you anywhere you want to
I'll be a taxi driver for you, honey, Take you anywhere you want to
Just call on me, I'll take you anywhere you want to
I'm a milkman for you, babe, I'll milk you anytime you want to
I'll be a milkman for you, babe, I'll milk you anytime you want to
Just call on me, And you can milk me if you want to
(Just) Call me on the telephone, (Oh, baby) I wasn't at home
Sometimes you reach me, sometimes you don't, Sometimes when I'm all alone
Call me up, I'll take you anywhere you want to
Call me on the telephone, Pity for you sister, I wasn't at home
Sometimes you'll reach me, sometimes you don't, Sometimes when I'm all alone
Just call me on the telephone, I wasn't at home
Sometimes you reach me, sometimes you don't, Sometimes when I'm all alone
It was a Monday morning, When the blues came falling on me
It was a Monday morning, When the blues came falling on me
Now it's Saturday evening, And still got a hold on me
It was a Monday morning, When my baby left me
It was a Monday morning, When my baby left me
now she's walking down the street, And stopping every man she meets
Now I'm sitting at the table, With a breakfast made for two
Sitting at the table, With a breakfast made for two
This is an instrumental piece.
Hey little girl won't you come along, yeah, well, I'm gonna take you to where I come from, yeah
It's a place with no heart, a place without pity, it's a place that's called the Mystery City
Hey!, We're gonna take a ride to the Mystery City, We're not coming back so buy a one-way ticket oh yeah!
We're leaving right now for the Mystery City, Got no heart, don't want no pity
Hey little girl, you'll love it there, Just backcomb your hair, let's get outta here
We can't stay here, baby this is nowhere, New boys waiting for you everywhere there
There's a lonestar queen, a lonestar queen, She's waiting for me
There's a lonestar queen, a lonestar queen, She's waiting for me
down in Mystery City, Down in Mystery City, down in Mystery City
I know you'd call this a paradise, dear, People judge you by the clothes you wear
Well, it's a wham bam gangbang everynight here, I tell you everywhere else is just nowhere!
There's a lonestar queen, a lonestar queen, She's waiting for me down in Mystery City
Oh, there's a million girls waiting for me, Down in Mystery City, I don't care
Took too much of this, had too much of that
But with you I never got enough
I thought there'd never be love in my life and that's sad
'Cause when I think what I could've had, it makes me feel so bad
I smoked a lot of sky, drank a lot of rain
Anything to ease my pain
But now your touch is all it would take
And that's a shame 'cause I can never come home again
And you're a million miles away
I'll never get a chance to hold you
So my message is the wind
I pray that it gets through to you
Loving you was so easy
And leaving you was so very hard
And now I live in this ocean of blue
In a corner of a prison yard, I should have listened to you
Now you're a million miles away
I'll never get a chance to hold you
Please don't be thinking of me
Please don't be thinking of me
Please don't be thinking of me
Accidents happens about everyday
But that day special followed by a heat wave
Rush hour just began I ran for my life
I can't afford to miss the bus
Or I'll go and miss all the fuss
Cos this time it's a must
I'm gonna meet the boys and Suzy
I just can't miss her tonight
Tonight I'm so hot - Gee! I'm so hot
Well, is she tight
Is she in need of a lover like me?
Oh, there she is now!
I gotta go - and give her a great big kiss
And now that I'm in her I don't wanna lose her
These moments are takin' me to heaven
But they don't seem to take her anywhere at all
I wonder what is wrong
Please, tell me what is wrong!
Remember all them nites we wrote on the walls that "Punks never die!"
Hot love in the nights, the days we spent undrground
Accidents happens about everyday
But that day special 'cos Peter was taken a way and Suzy
She moved to another town
So here I'm all alone in the summer heat
Looking at this empty street
All here's left is writings on the walls
I wonder were all the 11th street kidz are today
Where have they all gone?
