Oh.....Baby it's you!
Who is it who
Who is it who
Who is it who
Who is it
What is it
What is it
What is it
What is it
Oh...Oh baby it's you!
Watch out now baby 'cause I'm in love with you
Watch out now baby 'cause I'm in love with you
And if you don't love me I don't know what I'm going to do!
Who, who, who is it
Who, who, who is it
Who, who, who is it
Who, who, who is it
Who, who, who is it
Who, who, who is it
Who, who, who is it

Warning sign, warning sign,
I see it but I pay it no mind.
Hear my voice, hear my voice,
It's saying something and I hope you're concentrating
I've got money now, I've got money now,
C'mon baby, c'mon baby.
Warning sign of things to come (take it over, take it over)
Someone's talking on my telephone (when we're older,
when we're older)
Hear my voice, move my hair.
I move it around a lot, but I don't care. (what I remember)
Warning sign, warning sign,
Look at my hair, I like the design.
It's the truth, it's the truth.
Your glassy eyes and your open mouth
Take it easy, take it easy,
It's a natural thing and you have to relax,
I've got money now, I've got money now.
C'mon baby, C'mon baby.
Warning sign, of things to come (turn me over, turn me over)
Love is here but I guess it's gone now (hurry up babe,
hurry up babe),
Hear my voice, move my hair.
I move it around a lot, but I don't care.
Do you remember
What it is that you remember
Baby remember
It's not, yesterday, anymore
I go visiting and I talk loud
I try to make myself clear
In front of a face that's nearer
Than it's ever been before
Not this close before
Nearer than before
Not this close before
It is, is a million years ago
I hear music and it sounds like bells
I feel like my head is high
I wish I could meet, every one
Meet them all over again
Bring them up to my room
Meet them all over again
Everyone's up in my room
And now, now I'm busy, busy again
I feel like sitting down but
I'm still thinking, thinking about my friends
In my garden moments
But now I'm speaking out
Speaking about my friends
Now I'm speaking out
In a world
where people have problems
In this world
where decisions are a way of life
Other people's problems they overwhelm my mind
They say compassion is a virtue, but I don't have the time
So many people...have their problems
I'm not interested...in their problems
I guess I've...experienced some problems
But now I've...made some decisions
Takes a lot of time to push away the nonsense
Take my compassion...Push it as far as it goes
My interest level's dropping, my interest level is dropping
I've heard all I want to, I don't want to hear any more
What are you, in love with your problems?
I think you take it...a little too far
It's...not so cool to have so many problems
But don't expect me to explain your indecisions
Go...talk to your analyst, isn't that what they're paid for
You walk, you talk...You still function like you used to
It's not a question...Of your personality or style
Be a little more selfish, it might do you some good
In a world where people have problems
In this world where decisions are a way of life
Other people's problems, they overwhelm my mind
They say compassion is a virtue, but I don't have the time
Can we run that again
Is that a woman's voice I hear?
I said, ";Let's wait and see. I'll see for myself";
That's a phrase I repeat
To myself
Made a reference to me and
that's myself too
What progress I have made the first week
First Week
First Week
First Week
Every sentence I use
Refer to women and their names
I heard the voice first last week
I heard it myself
Made a reference to me
That's myself
This report's incomplete
I see for myself
Every appointment has been moved to last week
Last Week
Last Week
Last Weekoh...
ah...
oh...
I heard the voice first last week
I heard it myself
Made a reference to me
And that's myself
This report's incomplete
I see for myself
Every appointment has been been moved to last week
Last Week

Here where you are standing
The dinosaurs did a dance
The indians told a story
Now it has come to pass
The Indians had a legend
The Spaniards lived for gold
The white man came and killed them
But they haven't really gone
We live in the city of dreams
We drive on the highway of fire
Should we awake
And find it gone
Remember this, our favorite town
From germany and Europe
And Southern U.S.A.
They made this little town here
That we live in to this day
The children of the white man
Saw Indians on TV
And heard about the legend
How their city was a dream
We live in the city of dreams
We drive on the highway of fire
Should we awake
And find it gone
Remember this, our favorite town
The Civil War is over
And World War One and Two
If we can live together
The dream it might come true
Underneath the concrete
The dream is still alive
A hundred million lifetimes
A world that never dies
We live in the city of dreams
We drive on the highway of fire
Should we awake
And find it gone
Let's go
I'm painting, I'm painting again
I'm painting, I'm painting again
I'm cleaning, I'm cleaning again
I'm cleaning, I'm cleaning my brain
Pretty soon now, I will be bitter
Pretty soon now, will be a quitter
Pretty soon now, I will be bitter
You can't see it 'til it's finished
I don't have to prove that I am creative
I don't have to prove that I am creative
All my pictures are confused
Last time she jumped out the window
well
she only turned and smiled.
You might think she would say something
but you'd have to wait a while
Well
the lady don't mind; no
the lady don't mind.
She just turns her head and disappears
I kinda like that style.
Little boat that floats on a river
it's drifling through a haze.
She floats by whenever she wants to and there she goes again.
Well
it's no trouble at all; no
no trouble at all.
Well
what she does is all right with me
and I kinda like that style.
Come on
come on
I go up and down
I like this curious feeling.
I know
I see
it's like make believe ;
Cover your ears so you can hear what I'm saying.
I'm not lost but I don't know where I am; I got a question.
All right
all right
this is what we like
Who knows
who knows what I'm thinking?
She says love ist not what she's after
but everybody knows.
Each time she looks in the mirror
but she lets her feelings show.
Well
the lady don't mind; no
the lady don't mind. . . .
Oh-oh
oh-oh
here we go again
I don't know
don't know what I'm sayin'.
Hey man
hey man
I sure don't feel the same
She likes to say what she's feeling.
did I get a big surprise? I know you think so.
Come on
come on
she says anything
Who knows
The girls don't want to play like that,
They just want to talk to the boys.
The just want to do what is in their hearts,
And the girls want to be with the girls.
(CHORUS)
And the boys say, ";What do you mean?";
And the boys say, ";What do you mean?";
Well there is just no love,
When there's boys and girls.
And the girls want to be with the girls,
And the girls want to be with the girls.
Girls want things that make common sense,
The best for all concerned.
They don't want to have to go out of their way,
And the girls want to be with the girls.
(CHORUS)And the boys say, ";What do you mean?";
And the boys say, ";What do you mean?";
Well there is just no love,
When there's boys and girls.
And the girls want to be with the girls,
And the girls want to be with the girls.
Girls are getting into abstract analysis,
They want to make intuitive leap.
They are making plans that have far reaching effects.
And the girls want to be with the girls.
(CHORUS)
And the boys say, ";What do you mean?";
And the boys say, ";What do you mean?";
Well there is just no love,
When there's boys and girls.
And the girls want to be with the girls.
And the girls want to be with the girls.
He would see faces in movies, on T.V., in magazines, and in books....
He thought that some of these faces might be right for him....And
that through the years, by keeping an ideal facial structure fixed in his
mind....Or somewhere in the back of his mind....That he might, by
force of will, cause his face to approach those of his ideal....The
change would be very subtle....It might take ten years or so....
Gradually his face would change it's shape....A more hooked nose...
Wider, thinner lips....Beady eyes....A larger forehead.
He imagined that this was an ability he shared with most other
people....They had also molded their faces according to some
ideal....Maybe they imagined that their new face would better
suit their personality....Or maybe they imagined that their
personality would be forced to change to fit the new appear-
ance....This is why first impressions are often correct...
Although some people might have made mistakes....They may have
arrived at an appearance that bears no relationship to them....
They may have picked an ideal appearance based on some childish
whim, or momentary impulse....Some may have gotten half-way
there, and then changed their minds.
He wonders if he too might have made a similar mistake.
All the way home from Baltimore
We couldn't find a seat
Conductor says he's sorry for
The blisters on our feet
Comes a-riding in a bus
The high and the low
Mommy, daddy, you and I
Going on a trip
And we're not going home
Mommy, daddy, you and I
Driving, keep driving
Driving, driving all night
Sleeping on my daddy's shoulder
Drinking from a paper cup
And I'm wearing my grandfather's clothes
And they say that up North it gets cold
Crawling out of bed one night
Walking in my sleep
We're not the only family
To take this little trip
Driving all the way up
It's 30 below
Mommy, daddy, you and I
Even little kids
Getting ready to go
Mommy, daddy,you and I
Chilly, Chilly-Willy
It's colder the further we go
Some are born to take advantage
But saying it don't make it so
So hold me and don't let me go
'Cause the sidewalks are covered with snowHe's speaking English now
And he's smoothing out his clothes
He's Mr. Button Down
He's leaving home
Making changes day by day
And we still ain't got no plan
How we gonna make our way
In this foreign land?
Well we'll keep driving, keep driving
Driving with all of our might
Changing, still changing
Changing the water of life
Keep that little man a shining
See how the tail can wag the dog
And we're all riding in this old bus
And the driver is singing to us
And we're wearing out grandfather's clothes
'Cause we heard that up North it gets cold
Fooled around enough with numbers
Let's not be ourselves today
Is it just my imagination
Is it just someone's fave
Pleasantly out of proportion
It's hard to hold on to the ground
Now I didn't come to run
And this is everything
And gravity lets you down
I get wild, wizing up
I just can't let go
I get wild when I get ready
I can hardly talk
Living lights
Special lights
Yellow turns blue
I get wild It's automatic
I can hardly move
Go ahead and pull the curtains
Check to see if I'm still here
Let me lose my perspective
Something worth waiting for
Somewhere in South Carolina
And gravity don't mean a thing
And all around the world
Each and ev'ryone
Playing with a heart of steel
I get up climbing out
How did I get home?
I'll survive the situation
Somebody shut the door
Beautiful
Beautiful
Climbing up the wall
I get by on automatic
No surprise at all No one here can recognize you
Here is ev'rything that you like
Feelings without explanations
Somethings are hard to describe
The sound of a cigarette burning
A place there where ev'rything spins
And the sounds inside your mind
Is playing all the time
Playing with a heart of steel
I get wild, wizing up
I just can't let go
I get wild when I get ready
I can hardly talk
Red 'n' white black to gold
Yellow turns blue
I get wild It's automatic
I can hardly move
I get up pushing up
How did I get home?
I'll survive the situation
Somebody shut the door
Shut the door
Shut the door
Climbing up the wall
I get by on automatic
No surprise at all
You got the CBS...!
And the ABC...!
You got Time and Newsweek!
Well, they're the same to me!

When you were little
You dreamed you were big
You must have been something
A real tiny kid
You wish you were me
I wish I was you
Now don't you wake up
The dream will come true
Every dream has a name
And names tell your story
This song is your dream
You're the dream operator
It's bigger than life
You know it's all me
My face is a book
But it's not what it seems
Three angels above
The whole human race
They dream us to life
They dream me a face
And every dream tells it all
And this dream is your story
You dreamed me a heart
You're the dream operatorShake-it-up dream
Hi-di-ho dream
Fix-it-up dream
Look at me dream
I've been waiting so long
Now I am your dream
Hard to forget
Hard to go on
When you fall asleep
You're out on your own
Let go of your life
Grab on to my hand
Here in the clouds
Where we'll understand
And you dreamed it all
And this is your story
Do you know who you are?
You're the dream operator
And you dreamed it all
And this is your story
Do you know who you are?
You're the dream operator
Mommy, Daddy, come and look at me now
I'm a big man in a great big town
Years ago who would believe it's true
Goes to show what a little faith can do
I was complaining, I was down in the dumps
I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up
I slipped, and I got pulled
Pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up
I slipped, and I got pulled,
Pulled up, I slipped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up pull me up pull me up...
Pulled me up up up up up up up up
I drift away to another land
Sleeping dreaming such a simple thing
I think of things that I might be
I see my name go down in historyI was complaining, I was down in the dumps
I feel so string now 'cause you pulled me up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up
I slipped, and I got pulled,
pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up
I tripped, and I got pulled
Pulled up, I slipped, and then you pulled
you pulled me up! Pulled me up up, Pulled me up...
Pulled me up up up up up up up up
I got up
'cause you pulled me up
I stood up
'cause you pulled me up
I got up
And that was because you pulled me up
I got up
In a little while you pulled me up
Pull me up up up up, up up up up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up!
I cast a shadow on the living-room wall
Dark and savage with a profile so sharp
Keep that wonderful food on the table
There's really no hurry I'll eat in a while
I was complaining, I was down in the dumps
I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up!
I slipped, and I got pulled
Pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up
I slipped, and I got pulled
Pulled Up, I slipped,
And then you pulled, you pulled me up!
Pull me up...Pull me up...Watch out!
Pull me up up up up up up up up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up!
I see the clouds that move across the sky
I see the wind that moves the clouds away
It moves the clouds over by the building
I pick the building that I want to live in
I smell the pine trees and the peaches in the woods
I see the pinecones that fall by the highway
That's the highway that goes to the building
I pick the building that I want to live in
It's over there, it's over there
My building has every convenience
It's gonna make life easy for me
It's gonna be easy to get things done
I will relax alone with my loved ones
Loved ones, loved ones visit the building,
take the highway, park and come up and see me
I'll be working, working but if you come visit
I'll put down what I'm doing, my friends are important
Don't you worry 'bout me
I wouldn't worry about me
Don't you worry 'bout me
Don't you worry 'bout me
I see the states, across this big nation
I see the laws made in Washington, D.C.
I think of the ones I consider my favorites
I think of the people that are working for me
Some civil servants are just like my loved ones
They work so hard and they try to be strong
I'm a lucky guy to live in my building
They own the buildings to help them along
It's over there, it's over there
My building has every convenience
It's gonna make life easy for me
It's gonna be easy to get things done
I will relax along with my loved ones
Loved ones, loved ones visit the building
Take the highway, park and come up and see me
I'll be working, working but if you come visit
I'll put down what I'm doing, my friends are important
I wouldn't worry 'bout
I wouldn't worry about me
Don't you worry 'bout me
Hello again
Yes indeed my friend
I can tell
Goin' get together again
I could be right
I could b ewrong
I feel nice when I sing this song
And I don't mind
Whatever happens is fine
Baby likes to keep on playing . . .
What do I know, what do I know?
Wilder than the place we live in . . .
I'll take you there, I'll take you there
I don't mind some slight disorder . . .
Pull up the roots pull up the roots
And I know ev'ry living creature . .
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots
And I know you
I understand what you do
Yes, indeed
I put the hat on my head
Come outa your mess
Bring yourself in
I feel nice when I start to sing
And I can see
Ev'ryone else is like me
Towns that dissapeared completely . . .
Pull up the roost, pull up the roots
Miles and miles of endless highway . . .
Pull up the roost, pull up the roots
Colored lights and shiney curtains . . .
I'll take you there, I'll take you there
Ev'rything has been forgiven . . .
Pull up the roost, pull up the roots
Well I have a good time . . . when I go out of my mind
And it's a wonderful place . . . and I can't wait to be there
And I hear beautiful sounds . . . coming outa the ground
Gonna take us a while . . . but we'll go hundreds of times
Baby likes to keep on playing . . .
What d'you know? what d'you I know?
Wilder than the place we live in . . .
I'll take you there, I'll take you there
And I don't mind some slight disorder . . .
Pull up the roots pull up the roots
And no more time for talkin' it over . . .
Pull up the roots, pull up the roots
Well I have a good time . . . when I go out of my mind
And it's a wonderful place . . . and I can't wait to be there
And I hear beautiful sounds . . . coming outa the ground
Someone musta been high . . . but I guess it's alright
I . . . Who took the money?
Who took the money away?
I . . . It's always showtime
Here at the edge of the stage
I, I, I, wake up and wonder
What was the place, what was the name?
We wanna wait, but here we go again...
I . . . takes over slowly
But doesn't last very long
I . . . no need to worry
Evr'ything's under control
O - U - T But no hard feelings
What do you know? Take you away
We're being taken for a ride again
I got a girlfriend that's better than that
She has the smoke in her eyes
She's moving up, going right through my house
She's ginna give me surprise
Better than this, know that It's right
I think you can if you like
I git a girlfriend with bows in her hair
And nothing is better than that
Down, down in the basement
We hear the sound of machines
I, I, I'm driving in circles
Come to my senses sometimes
Why, why, why, why start it over?
Nothing was lost, everthing's free
I don't care how impossible it seems
Somebody calls you but you cannot hear
Get closer to be far away
Only one look and that's all that we need
Maybe that's all that it takes
All that it takes, all that it takes
All that it takes, all that it takes
I got a girlfriend that's betther than that
And she goes wherever she likes. (there she goes...)
I got a girlfriend that's better than that
Now everyone's getting involved
She's moving up going right through my heart
We might not ever get caught
Going right through (try to stay cool) going through, staying cool
I got a girlfriend that's better than that
And nothing is better than you
I got a girlfriend thats better that this
And you don't remember at all
As we get older and stop making sense
You won't find her waiting long
Stop making sense, stop making sense...stop making sense, making sense
I got a girlfriend that's better than that
And nothing is better that this
( is it? )
Here we stand
Like an Adam and an Eve
Waterfalls
The Garden of Eden
Two fools in love
So beautiful and strong
The birds in the trees
Are smiling upon them
From the age of the dinosaurs
Cars have run on gasoline
Where, where have they gone?
Now, it's nothing but flowers
There was a factory
Now there are mountains and rivers
you got it, you got it
We caught a rattlesnake
Now we got something for dinner
we got it, we got it
There was a shopping mall
Now it's all covered with flowers
you've got it, you've got it
If this is paradise
I wish I had a lawnmower
you've got it, you've got it
Years ago
I was an angry young man
I'd pretend
That I was a billboard
Standing tall
By the side of the road
I fell in love
With a beautiful highway
This used to be real estate
Now it's only fields and trees
Where, where is the town
Now, it's nothing but flowers
The highways and cars
Were sacrificed for agriculture
I thought that we'd start over
But I guess I was wrong
Once there were parking lots
Now it's a peaceful oasis
you got it, you got it
This was a Pizza Hut
Now it's all covered with daisies
you got it, you got it
I miss the honky tonks,
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
you got it, you got it
And as things fell apart
Nobody paid much attention
you got it, you got it
I dream of cherry pies,
Candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies
you got it, you got it
We used to microwave
Now we just eat nuts and berries
you got it, you got it
This was a discount store,
Now it's turned into a cornfield
you got it, you got it
Don't leave me stranded here
It's just a look, and it makes the boys quiver
Yes, it's the look, and now they remember
Had they forgotten... what this all means?
I think they want to forget
And they hope that this time
(Chorus)
I won't look, I've got other things to do now
I forgot what it was, I've got to get to work now
(And they) set an example for us (I see it!)
It can happen to me too
(And it) didn't make any difference to us (But I)
Forgot the trouble, that's the trouble
Forgot the trouble, that's the trouble
Forgot the trouble, that's the trouble
Forgot the trouble, that's the trouble
With our love,
With our love,
With our love
They hear the words, such as "You're really special"
(And they) can't face that feeling
(And they) can't really tell
I look out the window
(And I) I call that education
(And I) see all my friends standing out there
(And I) I call that education (sophistication)
(Repeat chorus)
Had they forgotten... what this all means?
Things come and go (and I see 'em)
And I won't be neglected (not this time!)
IFE DURING WARTIME
Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons
packed up and ready to go
Heard of some gravesites, out by the highway
a place where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire, off in the distance
I'm getting used to it now
Lived in a brownstone, lived in the ghetto
I've lived all over this town
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
this ain't no fooling around
No time for dancing, or lovey dovey
I ain't got time for that now
Transmit the message, to the receiver
hope for an answer some day
I got three passports, couple of visas
don't even know my real name
High on a hillside, trucks are loading
everything's ready to roll
I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nightime
I might not ever get home
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
this ain't no fooling around
This ain't no mudd club, or C. B. G. B.
I ain't got time for that now
Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, P. A.?
You oughta know not to stand by the window
somebody might see you up there
I got some groceries, some peanut butter
to last a couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers
ain't got no headphones
ain't got no records to play
Why stay in college? Why go to night school?
Gonna be different this time?
Can't write a letter, can't send a postcard
I can't write nothing at all
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
this ain't no fooling around
I'd love you hold you, I'd like to kiss you
I ain't got no time for that now
Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock
we blended in with the crowd
We got computers, we're tapping phone lines
I know that ain't allowed
We dress like students, we dress like housewives
or in a suit and a tie
I changed my hairstyle so many times now
don't know what I look like!
You make me shiver, I feel so tender
we make a pretty good team
Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving
you ought to get you some sleep
Get you instructions, follow directions
then you should change your address
Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day
whatever you think is best
Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks?
They won't help me survive
My chest is aching, burns like a furnace
the burning keeps me alive
Try to stay healthy, physical fitness
don't want to catch no disease
Try to be careful, don't take no chances
you better watch what you say
I'm wearin'
Fur pajamas
I ride a
Hot potato
It's ticklin' my fancy
Speak up, I can't hear you
Here on this mountaintop
Oh oh oh
I got some wild, wild life
I got some news to tell you
Oh oh
About some wild, wild life
Here comes the doctor in charge
Oh oh oh
She's got some wild, wild life
Ain't that the way you like it?
Oh oh
Living wild, wild life
I wrestle with your conscience
You wrestle with your partner
Sittin' on a window sill, but he
Spends his time behind closed doors
Check out Mr. Businessman
Oh oh oh
He bought some wild, wild life
On the way to the stock exchange
Oh oh oh
He got some wild, wild life
Break it up when he opens the door
Oh oh oh
He doin' wild, wild life
I know that's the way you like it
Oh oh
Living wild, wild
Peace of mind
It's a piece of cake
Thought control
You get on board anytime you like
Like sittin' on
Pins and needles
Things fall apart
It's scientific
Sleepin' on the interstate
Oh oh oh
Gettin' wild, wild life
Checkin' in, a checkin' out
Oh oh oh
I got a wild, wild life
Spendin' all of my money and time
Oh oh oh
Done too much wild, wild
We wanna go, where we go, where we go
Oh oh oh
I doin' wild, wild life
I know it, that's how we start
Oh oh
Got some wild, wild life
Take a picture, here in the daylight
Oh, oh
And it's some wild, wild life
You've grown so tall, you've grown so fast
Oh oh oh
Wild, wild
I know that's the way you like it
Oh, oh
Living wild wild wild wild life
Shoulders and knees
Elbows and waist
How can you be in two places at once?
You twist yourself all ot of shape
Whoop, there it is, do it again
The world is fiction
Special effects
You can't believe what's coming next
Sparks of light
Balls of fire
Whoop, what are we living for?
Coming once
He's coming strong
He don't believe he could ever be wrong
He come to run
I came to stand
Pick it up, do it again
I got my __
Im on TV
Wait a second, wait and see
A big __
A funny sound
I'm writing 'bout the, book I read
I have to sing about the, book I read
I'm embarrassed to admit it
Hit the soft spot in my heart
When I found out you wrote the
Book I read so
Take my shoulders as they touch your arms and I
Feel unconscious but I feel alright the
Book I read was in your eyes, ooh
Ohh, I'm living in the future
I feel wonderful
I'm tippin' over backwards
I'm so ambitious
I'm looking back I'm
Running a race and you're the book I read so
Feel my fingers as they touch your arms
I'm spinning around but I feel alright
The book I read was in your eyes, ooh
Na na na
Na na na
Na na na
Oh I'm, I'm living in the future
I feel wonderful
I'm tippin' over backwards
I'm so ambitious
I'm looking back I'm
Running a race and you're the book I read so
Feel my fingers as they touch your arms I'm
Spinning around and I feel alright
The book I read was in your eyes ooh
Na na na
Na na na
Now that I can release my tensions
Let me make clear my best intentions
Girls ask and I, define decision
Boys ask and I, describe their function
Oh, the boys want to talk
Like to talk about those problems
And the girls, say they're concerned
And they are concerned with these decisions
And it's all hard logic
To follow and the girls get lost
And the boys, say they're concerned
But they are concerned with these decisions
I wanna talk
I wanna talk as much as I want
I'm gonna give
I'm gonna give the problem to you
I wanna talk
I wanna talk as much as I want
I'm gonna give
I'm gonna give the problem to you
Decide, decide, make up your mind
Decide, decide, I told you what to say
Confuse, confuse, describe what I found
Confuse, confuse, I told you what to say
Oh, the girls still want to talk
Like to talk about those problems
And the boys, say they're concerned
But they are concerned with these decisions
And it's all hard logic
I know and the girls get lost
And the boys, say they're concerned
But they are concerned with these decisions
I wanna talk
I wanna talk as much as I want
I'm gonna give
I'm gonna give the problem to you
I wanna talk
I wanna talk as much as I want
I'm gonna give
I'm gonna give the problem to you
Decide, decide, make up your mind
Decide, decide, I told you what to say
Confuse, confuse, describe what I found
Falling, falling
Gonna drop like a stone
I'm fallin' through the atmosphere
On a warm afternoon
If lovers discover
That everyone dies
So don't tell me, please hold me
It's a dangerous life
Daddy dear
Let's get outta here
I'm scared
Ten o'clock
Nighttime in New York
It's weird
If you're looking for trouble, well
That's what you will find
Mom & Pop
They will fuck you up
For sure
Love so deep
Kills you in your sleep
It's true
Love keeps us together
And love will keep us alive
And we are criminals that never
Broke no laws
And all we needed was a net
To break our fall
They're searchin' for diamonds
They're grabbin' at straws
Sex 'n sin
Sax 'n violins
It's hell
Wooden heads
Furniture with legs
For sale
Love keeps us together
And love will drive us insane
And we are criminals that never
(Shove them there they are)
Broke no laws
(Shove them there they are)
And all we needed was a net
(Shove them there they are)
To break our fall
(Shove them there they are)
(Shove them)
Shove them there they are
Shove them there they are
Shove them
(Hmm)
Shove them there they are
Shove them there they are

Going home

Back where I belong

Rays of light
(Shove them there they are)
(Hmm)
They will turn the light
(Shove them there they are)
(Hmm)
To day
(Shove them)
(Hmm)
Birds travel together
Birds follow the sun
(Shove them there they are)
And I am watching as the birds go flying home
Shove them there they are
Shove them there they are
Shove them there they are
Shove them
(Hmm)
Shove them there they are
Shove them there they are
Shove them there they are

Hold the paper up to the light
Some rays pass right through
Expose yourself out there for a minute
Some rays pass right through
Take a little rest when the rays pass through
Take a little time off when the rays pass through
Go ahead, mix it up, go ahead and tie it up
A long distance telephone call
Hold on to that paper
Hold on to that paper
Hold on 'cause it's been taken care of
Hold on to that paper
See if you can fit it on the paper
See if you can get it on the paper
See if you can fit it on the paper
See if you can get it on the paper
Had a love affair but it was only paper
Some rays they pass right through
Had a lot of fun, could have been a lot better
Some rays they pass right through
Take a little consideration, take every combination
Take a few weeks off, make it tighter, tighter
If you know it was never, it was never written down
Still might be a chance that it might work out
Hold on to that paper
Hold on to that paper
Hold on 'cause it'll be taken care of
Hold on to that paper
Don't think I can fit it on the paper
Don't think I can get it on the paper
Go ahead and rip up, rip up the paper
Flying saucers, levitation, yo, I could do that
Get ready for heavy duty, go on, give it a chance
Give it a chance, give it a chance
I saw your hair start to curl, so get up
Write it down, you better wait for a while
So take your hands out of your pockets
Get your face adjusted, I heard it, somebody lied
And I'm staring out the window
Gonna let this thing continue, in its natural time
Roundheads, squareheads, get settled in
You can hear my belly rumble
There's a voice that starts to mumble
Woo, it's startin' to sing
Protons, neutrons, I ate a rock from the moon
Got shocked once, got shocked twice
Let's see what it can do
Man in the moon, the moon in the man
I got a rock in my throat, upside, upside down
My tummy start to talk, what it say?
Gonna rock it 'til I shock it
Gonna kick it 'til I drop it
Woo, love at first sight
You can kick it, you can poke it, ooh
I think you broke it, what about that?
Skin from a snake, blood from a stone
You know, that ain't no lie
I got hundreds of expressions
Try to make a good impression
Woo, right between the eye
I don't mind, let me go
[Incomprehensible], I don't know
Let me be, why not stay?
I feel numb, let me play
I got a wild imagination
Talkin' transubstantiation
Any version will do
I got mass communication
I'm the human corporation
I ate a rock from the moon
Moon in the rock, rock in the moon
There's a moon in my throat
You might think I'm wasting time
You might laugh but not for long
Hey! I'm workin' it out, work it out
I don't mind, let me go
Sounds inside, I don't know
Let me be, why not stay?
"Damn that television, what a bad picture
Don't get upset, it's not a major disaster
There's nothing on tonight," he said
"I don't know what's the matter
Nothing's ever on", She said
"So I don't know why you bother"
We've heard this little scene
We've heard it many times
People fighting over little things
And wasting precious time
They might be better off I think
The way it seems to me
Making up their own shows
Which might be better than TV
Judy's in the bedroom
Inventing situations
Bob is on the street today
Scouting up locations
They've enlisted all their family
They've enlisted all their friends
It helped saved their relationship
And made it work again
Their show gets real high ratings
They think they have a hit
There might even be a spin off
But they're not sure 'bout that
They ever watch TV again
It'd be too soon for them
Bob never yells about the picture now
He's having too much fun
Judy's in the bedroom
Inventing situations
Bob is on the street today
He's scouting up locations
They've enlisted all their family
They've enlisted all their friends
It helped save their relationship
And made it work again
So think about this little scene
Apply it to your life
If your work isn't what you love
Then something isn't right
Just look at Bob and Judy
They're happy as can be
Inventing situations
Putting them on TV
Judy's in the bedroom
Inventing situations
Bob is on the street today
He's having a vacation
They've enlisting all their family
They've enlisted all their friends
It helped save the relationship
Electric guitar gets run over
By a car on the highway
This is a crime against the state
This is the meaning of life
Tune this electric guitar
Tune this electric guitar
To tune this electric guitar
Tune this electric guitar
Electric guitar is brought in to a court of law
The judge and the jury
Twelve members of the jury
All listening to records
Is this is a crime against the state?
This is the verdict they reach
Never listen to electric guitar
Never listen to electric guitar
Never listen to electric guitar
Never listen to electric guitar
Electric guitar is copied
The copy sounds better
Call this the law of justice
Call this freedom and liberty
I thought I perjure myself
Right in front of the jury
Is this a crime against the state?
No, this is the verdict they reach
Someone controls electric guitar
Someone controls electric guitar
Someone controls electric guitar
Get them out
Watch out, you might get what you're after
Cool babies, strange but not a stranger
I'm an ordinary guy
Burning down the house
Hold tight, wait 'til the party's over
Hold tight, we're in for nasty weather
There has, got to be a way
Burning down the house
Here's your ticket pack your bags
Time for jumpin' overboard
Transportation isn't here
Close enough but not too far,
Maybe you know where you are
Fightin' fire with fire, huah
All wet, hey you might need a raincoat
Shakedown, dreams walking in broad daylight
Three hundred, sixty five degrees
Burning down the house
It was once upon a place sometimes, I listen to myself
Gonna come in first place
People on their way to work say baby what did you expect
Gonna burst into flame
Go ahead
Burning down the house
My house, is out of the ordinary
That's right, don't want to hurt nobody
Some things, sure can sweep me off my feet
Burning down the house
No visible means of support and you have not seen nothin' yet
Everything's stuck together
I don't know what you expect staring into the TV set
Fightin' fire with fire, huah
Burning down the house
Burning down the house
Hit me in the face
I run faster
Faster, faster, faster
Faster, faster into the air
I say to myself
What is happening to my skin?
Where is that protection that I needed?
Air can hurt you too, air can hurt you too
Some people say not to worry about the air
Some people never had experience with
It can break your heart
So remember, remember
Remember, remember, remember
When the weather gets rough
You'll say to yourself
What is happening to my skin?
Where is that protection that I needed?
Air can hurt you too, air can hurt you too
Some people say not to worry about the air
Some people never had experience with
Well, I know what it is
But I don't know where it is, where it is
Well, I know where it is
But I don't know what it looks like, what it looks like
Well, I know what it looks like
But I don't know where she comes from
Well, I know where she comes from
But I don't know what's her name
And she said
This is a perfect world
Riding on an incline
I'm staring in your face
You'll photograph mine
And I've been walking, talking
Believing the things that are true
And I've been finding the difference
Between right and wrong, bad and good
See me put things together
Put them back where they belong
Am I just like the others?
Have I always been singing the same song
She said
This is a perfect world
Riding on an incline
I'm staring in your face
You'll photograph mine
Somebody said that it happens all over the world
I do believe that it's true and the sun's coming up
And we're doing all the things that we should
Doesn't everybody here believe in the things we do?
And she said
This is a perfect world
Riding on an incline
I'm staring in your face
You'll photograph mine
It's a strange situation, what's wrong with you?
Baby, baby, baby
What you doing in my house?
And it's all true there's nothing wrong with you
And I said
This is a perfect world
Riding on an incline
I'm staring in your face
I'm hanging round the airport
I'm waiting for the plane
Mmmmm - something sweet and sticky
Runnin'down my hand
Popsicle of love
Gimme gimme gimme one of those
(It's summertime, boy!)
coconut delight
Honey honey honey don't let go
(It's summertime, love)
Mmm - a kinky little sister
Mmm - a-wearin' rubber gloves
A sexual health emergency
A copulation fantasy
You and me, ecstasy
Hate to be reality
Popsicle of love
Gimme gimme gimme one of those (hoo!)
(It's summertime, boy!)
I'm taking off my clothes
Honey honey honey don't let go
(It's summertime, love)
Ask - it shall be given
Pay - and ye shall receive
Cigarettes and pantyhose
Hit me in the funnybone
Hynie hole Tootsie roll
Jelly roll Time to go
Popsicle of love
Gimme gimme gimme one of those
(It's summertime, boy!)
coconut delight
Honey honey honey don't let go
(It's summertime, love)
I'm throwing up my hands
Buddy buddy - what's wrong with you
(t's summertime, boy!)
I'm blowing up my mind
Lemme lemme see what I can do
Sometimes the world has a load of questions
Seems like the world knows nothing at all
The world is near but it's out of reach
Some people touch it but they can't hold on
She is moving to describe the world
She has messages for everyone
She is moving by remote control
Hands that guide her are invisible
The world has a way of looking at people
Sometimes we feel that the world is wrong
She loves the world and all the people in it
She shakes 'em up when she starts to walk
She is only partly human being
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
She defines the possibilities
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Holding on for an eternity
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Gone, ending without finishing
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
World moves on a woman's hips
World moves and it swivels and bops
World moves on a woman's hips
World moves and it bounces and hops
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
She's gonna
Hold it, move it
Hold it, move it
Hold it, move it
Hold it, move it
A world of light, she's gonna open our eyes up
She is moving to describe the world
Night must fall now darker, darker
She has messages for everyone
Night must fall now darker, darker
She is moving by remote control
Night must fall now darker, darker
Hands that move her are invisible
Night must fall now darker, darker
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so

Night must fall now darker, darker
Divine, to define, she is moving to define, so say so, so say so
Night must fall now darker, darker
A terrible signal
Too weak to even recognize
A gentle collapsing
The removal of the insides
I'm touched by your pleas
I value these moments
We're older than we realize
In someone's eyes
A frequent returning
And leaving unnoticed
A condition of mercy
A change in the weather
A view to remember
The center is missing
They question how the future lies
In someone's eyes
A gentle collapsing
Of every surface
We travel on the quiet road
Big and I'm bad and I want you to know
I hang around where the grass is greener
Totally naked, baby, totally nude
'Cause if I want to, who's gonna stop me?
I'm absolutely free living in the trees
The birdies and the bees 'cause I'm a nature boy
Locked up inside, you can't tell me where it's at
Open up, open up, open the door
Rocks and trees and physical culture
Some days you hide, I guess you wonder where you are
Nature boy, nature man, take me along
We got a life that's undiscovered
We threw it all away, throw it all away
Rolling every way it's irresponsible
So civilized, I guess you wonder where you are
Nature boy, nature man, take me along
Deep in the woods we're undiscovered
I'm a little fish and you're the river
Living in a boat that's underwater
We can tip, tip, tip it over
You can push, push, make it better now
Wake your daddy up, it's a quarter to five
Our little boat has lost its rudder
Dive to the bottom and we never come up
A polka party for Bob and Martha
I'm absolutely free living in the trees
The birdies and the bees 'cause I'm a nature boy
Think what you like, this is really where it's at
Open up, open up, open the door
We don't need clothes and we don't need money
So civilized, I guess you wonder where you are
Nature boy, nature man, take me along
Home is where I want to be
Pick me up and turn me round
I feel numb - burn with a weak heart
(So I) guess I must be having fun
The less we say about it the better
Make it up as we go along
Feet on the ground
Head in the sky
It's ok I know nothing's wrong . . nothing
Hi yo I got plenty of time
Hi yo you got light in your eyes
And you're standing here beside me
I love the passing of time
Never for money
Always for love
Cover up + say goodnight . . . say goodnight
Home - is where I want to be
But I guess I'm already there
I come home - -she lifted up her wings
Guess that this must be the place
I can't tell one from another
Did I find you, or you find me?
There was a time Before we were born
If someone asks, this where I'll be . . . where I'll be
Hi yo We drift in and out
Hi yo sing into my mouth
Out of all tose kinds of people
You got a face with a view
I'm just an animal looking for a home
Share the same space for a minute or two
And you love me till my heart stops
Love me till I'm dead
Eyes that light up, eyes look through you
Cover up the blank spots
Found out this morning
There?s a circus coming to town
They drive in Cadillacs
Using walkie-talkies and the Secret Service
Their big top, imitation of life
All the flags and microphones
Have to cover our eyes
We play the sideshows
And we like the tunnel of love
When we ride the ferris wheel
We?re little children again
When they?re asking for volunteers
We?ll be the first ones aboard
When the ringmaster calls our names
Be the first ones to go to sleep
Stealing all our dreams
Dreams for sale
They sell ?em back to you
On with the show
Start the parade
We sand along
Sweep us away
It?s political party time
Going down, going down, going down
And the celebrities all come out
Coming down, coming down, coming
Sun is going down
And the dogs are starting to howl
We stay out after dark
Eating cotton candy and the music?s playing
How we all laughed
We split our sides
The cameras flashed
We almost died
Rain?s gonna pour on down, falling out of the sky
Coming down, coming down
And the celebrities all run out, and the rain?s
Coming down, coming down
Gonna rain, gonna rain, gonna rain
Gonna rain, gonna rain, rain, rain, rain
And now I wonder who?s boss
I see the shapes,
I remember from maps.
I see the shoreline.
I see the whitecaps.
A baseball diamond, nice weather down there.
I see the school and the houses where the kids are.
Places to park by the fac'tries and buildings.
Restaunts and bar for later in the evening.
Then we come to the farmlands, and the undeveloped areas.
And I have learned how these things work together.
I see the parkway that passes through them all.
And I have learned how to look at these things and I say,
(CHORUS)
I wouldn't live there if you paid me.
I couldn't live like that, no siree!
I couldn't do the things the way those people do.
I couldn't live there if you paid me to.
I guess it's healthy, I guess the air is clean.
I guess those people have fun with their neighbors and friends.
Look at that kitchen and all of that food.
Look at them eat it' guess it tastes real good.
They grow it in the farmlands
And they take it to the stores
They put it in the car trunk
And they bring it back home
And I say ...
(CHORUS)
I say, I wouldn't live there if you paid me.
I couldn't live like that, no siree!
I couldn't do the things the way those people do.
I wouldn't live there if you paid me to.
I'm tired of looking out the windows of the airplane
I'm tired of travelling, I want to be somewhere.
It's not even worth talking
About those people down there.
Goo Goo Ga Ga Ga
I'm looking and I'm dreaming for the first time
And I'm inside and I'm outside at the same time
And everything is real
Do I like the way I feel?
When the world crashes into my living room
Television made me what I am
People like to put the television down
But we are just good friends, I'm a television man
I knew a girl, she was a macho man
And I it's alright, I wasn't fooled for long
This is the place for me
I'm the king, and you're the queen
When the world crashes into my living room
Television made me what I am
People like to put the television down
But we are just good friends, I'm a television man
Take a walk in the beautiful garden
Everyone would like to say hello
It doesn't matter what you say
Come and take us away
The world crashes in, into my living room
The world crashes in, into my living room
The world crashes in, into my living room
The world crashes in, into my living room
And we are still good friends
(Television man)
I'm watching everything
(Television man)
I'm a television man
(Television man)
I'm watching everything
(Television man)
Television man and I'm gonna say
We are still good friends and I'm trying to be
Watchin' everything and I gotta say
We are still good friends you know the way it is
Television man I've got what you need
We are still good friends I know the way you are
Television man I know what you're tryin' to be
Watchin' everything and I gotta say
I don't know why I love her like I do
All the changes you put me through
Take my money, my cigarettes
I haven't seen the worst of it yet
I wanna know that you'll tell me
I love to stay
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Take me to the river, dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down
I don't know why you treat me so bad
Think of all the things we could have had
Love is an ocean that I can't forget
My sweet sixteen I would never regret
I wanna know that you'll tell me
I love to stay
Take me to the river, drop me in the water
Push me in the river, dip me in the water
Washing me down, washing me
Hug me, squeeze me, love me, tease me
Till I can't, till I can't, till I can't take no more of it
Take me to the water, drop me in the river
Push me in the water, drop me in the river
Washing me down, washing me down
I don't know why I love you like I do
All the troubles you put me through
Sixteen candles there on my wall
And here am I the biggest fool of them all
I wanna know that you'll tell me
I love to stay
Take me to the river and drop me in the water
Dip me in the river, drop me in the water
Washing me down, washing me down.
Now lemme tell you a story
The devil he has a plan
A bag a' bones in his pocket
Got anything you want
No dust and no rocks
The whole thing is over
All these beauties in solid motion
All those beauties, gonna swallow you up
Hi hi hi hi hi,
One time too many
Too far to go
I- We come to take you home
And when they split those atoms
It's hotter than the sun
Blood is a special substance
They gonna pray for that man
So wake up young lovers
The whole thing is over
Watch but touch monkeys
All that blood, gonna swallow you whole
Hi hi hi hi hi
What's that? Who's driving?
Where we goin'? Who knows?
I- We come to take you home
How many people do you think I am
Pretend I am somebody else
You can pretend I'm and old millionaire
A millionaire washing his hands
Rattle the bones, dreams that stick out
A medical chart on the wall
Soft violence and hands touch your throat
Ev'ryone wants to explode
And when your hands get dirty
Nobody knows you at all
Don't have a window to slip out of
Lights on, nobody home
Click click- see ya later
Beta beta- no time to rest
Pika pika- risky business
All that blood, will never cover that mess.
Hi hi hi hi hi
So soft hard feelings
What's that, who's driving
No tricks lets go
I- We come to take you home
I- We come to take you home
Hi hi hi hi hi
Mommy had. A little baby.
There he is. Fast asleep.
He's just. A little plaything.
Why not. Wake him up?
Cute. Cute. Little baby.
Little pee pee. Little toes.
Now he's comin' to me.
Crawl across. The kitchen floor.
Baby, baby, please let me hold him
I wanna make him stay up all night
Sister, sister, he's just a plaything
We wanna make him stay up all night
Yeah we do
See him drink. From a bottle.
See him eat. From a plate.
Cute. Cute. As a button.
Don't you wanna make him. Stay up late.
And we're having fun. With no money.
Little smile. On his face.
Don't cha' love. The little baby.
Don't you want to make him. Stay up late.
CHORUS
Here we go (all night long)
Sister, sister (all night long)
In the playpen...woo...(all night long)
Little baby goes, ha! (all night long)
I know you want to leave me...
Why don't. We pretend.
There you go. Little man.
Cute. Cute. Why not?
Late at night. Wake him up.
CHORUS
Here we go (all night long)
Sister, sister...woo...
(with the television on)
Little baby goes...woo! (all night long)
Hey, hey, baby! (all night long)
And he looks so cute (all night long)
What about the time?
You were rollin' over
Fall on your face
You must be having fun
Walk lightly
Think of a time
You'd best believe
This think is real
Put away that gun
This part is simple
Try to recognize
What is in you mind
God help us
Help us loose our minds
These slippery people
Help us understand
What's the matter with him? He's alright
How do you know? The lord won't mind
Don't play no games, he's alright
Love from the bottom to the top
Turn like a wheel, he's alright
See for yourself, the Lord won't mind
We're gonna move right now
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel
I remember when
Sittin' in the tub
Pulled out the plug
The water was runnin' out
Cool down
Stop actin' crazy
They're gonna leave
And we'll be on our own
Seven times five
They were living creatures
Watch 'em come to life
Right before your eyes
Backslidin'
How do you do?
These slippery people
Gonna see you through
What's the matter with him? He's alright
How do you know? The lord won't mind
Don't play no games, he's alright
Love from the bottom to the top
Turn like a wheel, he's alright
See for yourself, the Lord won't mind
We're gonna move right now
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel
What's the matter with him? He's alright
How do you know? The lord won't mind
Don't play no games, he's alright
Love from the bottom to the top
Turn like a wheel, he's alright
See for yourself, the Lord won't mind
We're gonna move right now
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel
What's the matter with him? He's alright
How do you know? The lord won't mind
Don't play no games, he's alright
Love from the bottom to the top
Turn like a wheel, he's alright
See for yourself, the Lord won't mind
We're gonna move right now
Turn like a wheel inside a wheel
He's alright
Love from the bottom
Alright
Love from the bottom to the top
Alright
The love from the bottom
Right now
'Round and 'round and we won't let go
And where we stop no one knows
Uh huh, uh huh
Down and down in a spin we turn
Looking like we'll never learn
Uh huh, uh huh
Think about what everyone is saying
Ruby dear, oh don't you hear?
Late at night when the radio is playing
Ruby dear, so looky here
Oh this record's broken
It slips a beat
And all those watermelons
Have gone to seed
Nothing lives in this dirty little river
No one here will shed a tear
It dried up but it couldn't run forever
Ruby dear that's what we hear
I still like the ocean
Down by the sea
They left that door wide open
It tempted me
Hounding me from the bedroom to the kitchen
Ruby dear, I'm still not here
Now they throw the fox amongst the chickens
It's too deep, I'll drown in my sleep
Angels and prostitutes
They might look the same
And if to Hell we're going
I'll see you there
'Round and 'round and we won't let go
And where we stop no one knows
Uh huh, uh huh
Down the street where the bonfires glow
Looking like they lost control
Uh huh, uh huh
Settle down in that rocking chair
Breathing in that rotten air
Uh huh, uh huh
Johnny Jones fell fast asleep
Down a hole where the rocks are steep
Well
we know where we're goin'
but we don't know where we've been.
And we know what we're knowing'
but we can't say what we've seen.
And we're not little children
and we know what we want.
And the future is certain
give us time to work it out.
We're on a road to nowhere
come on inside.
Takin' that ride to nowhere
we'll take that ride.
I'm feelin' okay this mornin'
and you know.
We're on the road to paradise
here we go
here we go.
We're on a road to nowhere
come on inside.
Takin' that ride to nowhere
we'll take that ride.
Maybe you wonder where you are
I don't care.
Here is where times is on our side
take you there
take you there.
We're on a road to nowhere -
We're on a road to nowhere -
We're on a road to nowhere -
There's a city in my mind
come along and take that ride
and it's all right
baby
it's all right.
And it's very far away
but it's growing day by day
and it's all right
baby
it's all right.
Would you like to come along
you can help me sing this song
and it's all right
baby
it's all right.
They can tell you what to do
but they'll make a foo lof you
and it's all right
baby
it's all right.
There's a city in my mind
come along and take that ride
We're on a road to nowhere - We're on a road to nowhere -
Baby your mind is a radio
Got a reciever inside my head
Baby I'm tuned to your wavelength
Lemme tell you what it says
Baby, transmitter
Oh! picking up something good
Hey, radio head
The sound of a brand-new world
So look at my fingers vibrate
From their tip down down to my toes
Now I'm recieving your signal
We're gonna leave the land of noise
Transmitter
Oh! picking up something good
Hey, radio head
The sound of a brand-new world

I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous and I can't relax
I can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire
Don't touch me I'm a real live wire
Psycho killer
Qu'est que c'est
Fa-fa-far better
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, away
Oh, psycho killer
Qu'est que c'est

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, away
Oh aey, aey, aey, aey, aey
You start a conversation you can't even finish it
You're talkin' a lot, but you're not sayin' anything
When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed
Say something once, why say it again?
Psycho killer
Qu'est que c'est
Fa-fa-far better
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, away
Oh, psycho killer
Qu'est que c'est

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, away

Ce qu'elle a dit, ce soir la
Realisant mon espoir
Je me lance, vers la gloire, okay
Aey, aey, aey, aey, aey, aey, aey, aey
We are vain and we are blind
I hate people when they're not polite
Psycho killer
Qu'est que c'est
Fa-fa-far better
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, away
Oh oh, psycho killer
Qu'est que c'est

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, away

Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempo

It might hmm mmm mm mm, might rain money

Now I'm gonna call, gonna call on Legba
Get yourself a sign, get your love and desire
Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempo

Singin' Papa Legba, come and open the gate
Papa Legba to the city of camps
Now we're your children, come and ride your horse
In the night, in the night, come and ride your horse
There is a queen of six and sevens and nines
Dust in your garden, poison in your mind
There is a king that will steal your soul
Don't let him catch you don't let him get control
Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempo
Rompiendo la monotonia del tiempo
Papa Legba come and open the gate
Papa Legba to the city of camps
Now we're your children, come and ride your horse
In the night, in the night, come and ride your horse
In the night in the night come and ride your horse
In the night in the night come and ride your horse
In the night in the night come and ride your horse
You may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
And you may find yourself in another part of the world
And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
You may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
You may ask yourself, "Well, how did I get here?"
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
And you may ask yourself, "How do I work this?"
And you may ask yourself, "Where is that large automobile?"
And you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful house"
And you may tell yourself, "This is not my beautiful wife"
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Water dissolving and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Under the water, carry the water
Remove the water from the bottom of the ocean
Water dissolving and water removing
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, into the silent water
Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Leting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
You may ask yourself, "What is that beautiful house?"
You may ask yourself, "Where does that highway go to?"
You may ask yourself, "Am I right, am I wrong?"
You may say to yourself, "My God! What have I done?"
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, into the silent water
Under the rocks and stones, there is water underground
Letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground
Into the blue again, after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, look where my hand was
Time isn't holding up, time isn't after us
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was
Same as it ever was, hey let's all twist our thumbs
Here comes the twister
Letting the days go by
Letting the days go by
Once in a lifetime
Let the water hold me down
Mr. Jones
Put a wiggle in your stride
Loosen up
I believe he'll be alright
Changing clothes
Now he's got ventilated slacks
Bouncing off the walls
Mr. Jones is back!
Bulge out
And wind your waist
Tight pants
Got curly hair
Drinking cold beer
From metal cans
Moonshine
And Handi-Wipes!
Mr. Jones is back in town
it's his lucky day
Hold up your hands and shout
Jones is on his way
Pitter pat
Mr. Jones is back in town
Aces high
Now his pants are falling down
He looks so fine
In those patent leather shoes
Mr. Jones, you look tired
I believe you'll be alright
Sales men
Conventioneers
Some rock stars
With tambourines
Short skirts
And skinny legs
Selling bibles
And real estate
It's a big day for Mr. Jones
He is not so square
Mr. Jones will stick around
He's everybody's friend
Fast cars
And motorbikes
I'm sure glad
He's on our side
The Jones Gang
Down at the bar
Watch out, this time
They've gone too far
They call for Mr. Jones
They put him in charge
Mr. Jones will help us out
He's a lucky guy
It is Mr. Jones' Birthday party
For another year
In his hotel room Party favors
Do you remember anyone here?
No you don't remember anything at all
I'm sleeping, I'm flat on my back
Never woke up, had no regrets
There's a party in my mind...And it never stops
There's a party up there all the time...They'll
party till they drop
Other people can go home...Other peoplle they can split
I'll be here all the time...I can never quit
Take a walk through the land of shadows
Take a walk through the peaceful meadows
Try not to look so disappointed
It isn't what you hoped for, is it?
There's a party in my mind...And I hope it never stops
I'm stuck here in this seat...I might not stand up
Other people can go home...Everyone else will split
I'll be here all the time...I can never quit
Everything is very quiet
Everyone has gone to sleep
I'm wide awake on memories
There memories can't wait.

Air...Air
Hit me in the face
I run faster
Faster into the air
(I say to myself)
What is happening to my skin?
Where is that protection that I needed?
Air can hurt you too
Air can hurt you too
Some people say not to worry about the air
Some people never had experience with...
Air...Air
It can break your heart
So remember when the weather gets rough
(You'll say to yourself)
What is happening to my skin?
Where is that protection that I needed?
Air can hurt you too
Air can hurt you too
Some people say not to worry about the air
Some people don't know shit about the...
Everybody, get in now
Nothing can come between us
Nothing gets you down
Nothing strikes your fancy
Nothing turns you on
Somebody is waiting in the hallway
Somebody is falling down the stairs
Set someone free, break someone's heart
Stand up, help us out
Everything is divided
Nothing is complete
Everything looks impressive
And do not be deceived
You don't have to wait for more instructions
No one makes a monkey out of me
We lie on our backs, feet in the air
Rest and relaxation, rocket to my brain
Snap into position
Bounce till you ache
You step out of line and
And you end up in jail
Bring me a doctor
I have a hole in my head
But they are just people
And I'm not afraid
Doctor, doctor
We have nothing in our pockets
We continue
But we have nothing left to offer
Faces pressed against the window
Hey, they are just my friends
Check this out, don't be so slick
Break our backs, it goes like this
We are born without eyesight
We are born without sin
And our mama protects us
From the cold and the rain
We're in no hurry
Sugar and spice
We sing in the darkness
And we open our eyes, open up
Oh, I can't believe it
And people are strange
Our president's crazy
And did you hear what he said?
Business and pleasure
Lie right to your face
Divide it in sections
And then give it away
[Incomprehensible] there are no big secrets
And don't believe what you read
We have great big bodies
We got great big heads
Run, run, run, run it all together
Check it out still don't make no sense
Makin' flippy floppy, tryin' to do my best
One, two
One, two, three, four
I was born in a house with the television always on
Guess I grew up too fast and I forgot my name
We're in cities at night and we've got time on our hands
So leave the driving to us and it's the real thing
And you're rolling in the blender with me
And I can love you like a color TV
And now love is here, c'mon and try it
I got love for sale, got love for sale
And now love is here, c'mon and try it
I got love for sale, got love for sale
You can put your lipstick all over my designer jeans
I'll be a video for you, if you turn my dial
You can cash my check if you go down to the bank, down at the bank
You get two for one, for a limited time, a limited time
Push my button, the toast pop's up
Love and money, gettin' all mixed up
Oh now love is here, c'mon and try it
I got love for sale, got love for sale
And now love is here, c'mon and try it
Got love for sale, I got love for sale
Oh love is here, c'mon and try it
Love for sale, I got love for sale
Oh now love is here, c'mon and try it
Oh I got love for sale, I got love here for sale
Oh now love is here, c'mon and try it
I got love for sale, I got love, love
Love, love, love, love, love, love
When my love
Stands next to your love,
I can't define love
When it's not love.
It's not love.
It's not love.
Which is my face,
Which is a building,
Which is on fire.
When my love
Stands next to your love,
I can't define love
When it's not love.
It's not love.
It's not love.
Which is my face,
Which is a building,
Which is on fire.
I've got two loves
I've got two loves
And they go tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, like little birds
They're my two loves...
Count them one, two loves...
Count them one, two loves.
Which is my face
Which is a building
Which is on fire
It's not love.
It's not love.
Which is my face,
Which is a building,
Mojique sees his village from a nearby hill
Mojique thinks of days before Americans came
He serves the foreigners in growing numbers
He sees the foreigners in fancy houses
He dreams of days that he can still remember now
Mojique holds a package in his quivering hands
Mojique sends the package to the American man
Softly he glides along the streets and alleys
Up comes the wind that makes them run for cover
He feels the time is surely now or never more
The wind in my heart, the wind in my heart
The dust in my head, the dust in my head
The wind in my heart, the wind in my heart
Come to drive them away, drive them away
The wind in my heart, the wind in my heart
The dust in my head, the dust in my head
The wind in my heart, the wind in my heart
Come to drive them away, drive them away
And Mojique buys his equipment in the market place
Mojique plants devices through the free trade zone
He feels the wind is lifting up his people
He calls the wind to guide him on his mission
He knows his friend the wind is always standing by
Mojique smells the wind that, that comes from far away
Mojique waits for news in a quiet place
He feels the presence of the wind beside him
He feels the power of the past behind him
He has the knowledge of the wind to guide him on
The wind in my heart, the wind in my heart
The dust in my head, the dust in my head
The wind in my heart, the wind in my heart
Come to drive them away, drive them away
The wind in my heart, the wind in my heart
The dust in my head, the dust in my head
The wind in my heart, the wind in my heart
I have tried marijuana
I get nervous every time
There will come a knockin' at the door
Why is everybody makin' eyes at me?
I don't want to know
Excuse and pardon me
Stay for a while
Maybe we'll never
meet again
I can see my lifetime piling up
I can see the days turn into nights
I can see the people on the street
Open those windows up
A hundred floors below me
Pilin' those houses up
Pilin' them higher, higher, higher
I can feel them swayin' back and forth
Building it higher, higher
This tower's learning over
I got bad coordination
Stuck a pencil in my eye
I can hardly wait to get back home
Why is everybody gettin' paranoid?
I's only havin' fun
Scum-bags and superstars
Tell me your names
I'll make a bet, you're
both the same
I can see my lifetime pilin' up
Reaching from my bedroom to the stars
I can see the house where I was born
When I was growin' up - they say that
I could never keep my trousers up
I remember days and crazy nights
Are there any pirates on this ship?
And if they sober up - they'll have us
Home by morning
Cry, cry, cry
It's just you and I
Like an automobile
with no one at the wheel
Spinning out of control
We're all over the road
In our sexy machine
All the passengers scream
Scream, scream!
I can see my lifetime pilin' up
I can see it smashin' into yours
It was not an accident at all
Open your window up - I hear you laughin'
Goin' one, two, three, four, five
Goin' from the bottom to the top
Maybe I'm holding on too tight
And now I'm growin' up
I got a funny feeling
Pilin' those houses up
Pilin' them higher, higher, higher
Building that highway to the stars
And turning the music up - Hey!
I . . . Who took the money?
Who took the money away?
I . . . It's always showtime
Here at the edge of the stage
I, I, I, wake up and wonder
What was the place, what was the name?
We wanna wait, but here we go again...
I . . . takes over slowly
But doesn't last very long
I . . . no need to worry
Evr'ything's under control
O - U - T But no hard feelings
What do you know? Take you away
We're being taken for a ride again
I got a girlfriend that's better than that
She has the smoke in her eyes
She's moving up, going right through my house
She's ginna give me surprise
Better than this, know that It's right
I think you can if you like
I git a girlfriend with bows in her hair
And nothing is better than that
Down, down in the basement
We hear the sound of machines
I, I, I'm driving in circles
Come to my senses sometimes
Why, why, why, why start it over?
Nothing was lost, everthing's free
I don't care how impossible it seems
Somebody calls you but you cannot hear
Get closer to be far away
Only one look and that's all that we need
Maybe that's all that it takes
All that it takes, all that it takes
All that it takes, all that it takes
I got a girlfriend that's betther than that
And she goes wherever she likes. (there she goes...)
I got a girlfriend that's better than that
Now everyone's getting involved
She's moving up going right through my heart
We might not ever get caught
Going right through (try to stay cool) going through, staying cool
I got a girlfriend that's better than that
And nothing is better than you
I got a girlfriend thats better that this
And you don't remember at all
As we get older and stop making sense
You won't find her waiting long
Stop making sense, stop making sense...stop making sense, making sense
I got a girlfriend that's better than that
And nothing is better that this
Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons
Packed up and ready to go
Heard of some gravesides, out by the highway
A place where nobody knows
The sound of gunfire off in the distance
I'm getting used to it now
Lived on brownstone, lived in the ghetto
I've lived all over this town
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
This ain't no fooling around
No time for dancing or lovey dovey
I ain't got time for that now
Transmit the message to the receiver
Hope for an answer some day
I got three passports, couple of visas
You don't even know my real name
High on a hillside, the trucks are loading
Everything's ready to roll
I sleep in the daytime, I work in the nighttime
I might not ever get home
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco
This ain't no fooling around
This ain't no mudd club, or C.B.G.B.
I ain't got time for that now
Heard about Houston? Heard about Detroit?
Heard about Pittsburgh, P A?
You oughta know not to stand by the window
Somebody see you up there
I got some groceries, some peanut butter
To last a couple of days
But I ain't got no speakers, ain't got no headphones
Ain't got no records to play
Why stay in college? Why go to night school?
Gonna be different this time?
Can't write a letter, can't send no postcard
I ain't got no time for that now
Trouble in transit, got through the roadblock
We blended in with the crowd
We got computers, we're tapping phone lines
I know that all ain't allowed
We dress like students, we dress like housewives
Or in a suit and a tie
I changed my hairstyle so many times now
I don't know what I look like
You make me shiver, I feel so tender
We make a pretty good team
Don't get exhausted, I'll do some driving
You ought to get you some sleep
Burned all my notebooks, what good are notebooks?
They won't help me survive
My chest is aching, burns like a furnace
The burning keeps me alive
Get your instructions, follow directions
Then you should change your address
Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day
Whatever you think is best
Try to stay healthy, physical fitness
Don't wanna catch no disease
Try to be careful, don't take no chances

I wish you wouldn't say that
I thought I'd have to come right over
I thought I made it clear enough
I guess I'll have to make it clearer
Say something to change your mind
Bring me back the way I used to be
If it takes forever that's all right
Say the words that I've been trying to hear
I wish you didn't tell her
I thought O'd have to come right over
I thought I'd have to make it clearer
Now Jimmy's coming over
There are places that I won't forget
And I guess I'm never going back
Guess it's information that I lack
I've told lies without a hint or regret
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
I wish you wouldn't say that
For a long time I felt without style or grace
Wearing shoes with no socks in cold weather
I knew my heart was in the right place
I knew I'd be able to do these things
And as we watch him digging his own grave
It is important to know that was where he's at
He can't afford to stop, that is what he believe
He'll keep on digging for a thousand years
I'm walking a line, I'm thinking about empty motion
I'm walking a line, just barely enough to be living
Get out of the way, no time to begin
This isn't the time, so nothing was done
Not talking about, not many at all
I'm turning around, no trouble at all
You notice there's nothing around you, around you
I'm walking a line, divide and dissolve
Never get to say much, never get to talk
Tell us a little bit, but not too much
Right about then, is where she give up
She has closed her eyes, she has give up hope
I'm walking a line, I hate to be dreaming in motion
I'm walking a line, just barely enough to be living
Get out of the way, no time to begin
This isn't the time, so nothing was done
Not talking about, not many at all
I'm turning around, no trouble at all
I'm keeping my fingers behind me, behind me
I'm walking a line, divide and dissolve
I'm walking a line, visiting houses in motion
I'm walking a line, just barely enough to be living
Get out of the way, no time to begin
This isn't the time, so nothing was done
Not talking about, not many at all
I'm turning around, no trouble at all
Two different houses surround you, 'round you
Everyone is trying to get to the bar
The name of the bar
The bar is called heaven
The band in heaven
They play my favourite song
Play it one more time
Play it all night long
Oh heaven
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing
Nothing ever happens
Heaven
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing
Nothing ever happens
There is a party
Everyone is there
Everyone will leave at exactly the same time
When this party's over
It will start again
It will not be any different
It will be exactly the same
Oh heaven
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing
Nothing ever happens
When this kiss is over
It will start again
It will not be any different
It will be exactly the same
It's hard to imagine
That nothing at all
Could be so exciting
Could be this much fun
Oh heaven
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing
Nothing ever happens
Heaven
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing
In my sensations, I believe that
I was born with the things that I know
I want to talk like every
Before I decide what to do
And I fell all over
And I couldn't stand up
I can't be critical
I can't, won't stop
Such a happy day for me
Bring a happy day to me
Send a happy day to me
And a happy day
Came to me, come to me, here it come
I'm only looking
Feel like my heart has a will of its own
I feel, feel nice inside
Right here and now it's summer again
The story I told
The story I made up
I was foolin' around but I
I can't stop
Such a happy day for me
Bring a happy day to me
Send a happy day to me
And a happy day
Come to me, come to me, here it come
This boy is in motion
Some density moved right beside me
I want my sentence
Right here but now I'm far away
A sign was given but
Many years have passed
It cost a little bit to love you
But I won't, can't stop
Such a happy day for me
Bring a happy day to me
Send a happy day to me
And a happy day
Gangster of love
Gangster of love
You with the cocktail in your hand
You in your red Mercedes Benz
Goin' in one ear and out the other
cover up the pain with laughter, baby
Hey Al Capone
Is that who you think you are?
All the girls
All around the world
Well, they wanna shake your hand
It won't be long
You'll need an alibi
A little bird
Told me what he'd heard
Is it really true?
Gangster of love
Gangster of love
They're gonna take you for a ride
And hit you right between the eyes
You can hear the pretty music playin' well
listen to the words, they're saying,
you can hear them calling', hear them calling'
Hey, Al Capone
You'll need a bodyguard
Just like that
You'll be laid out flat
With a broken heart
I shot you down
Who's gonna help you now?
Valentine's day
Better hope and pray
They'll be tearing you apart
Gangster of love, Gangster of love
Gangster of love, Gangster of love
I hear conversations
In restaurants and bars
I read all the papers
And what they say is wrong
It's such a fine, fine line
such a fine, fine line
Gangster of love
Gangster of love
Gangster of love
Gangster of love
Gangster of love
Gangster of love
And all I see is little dots
Some are smeared, some are spots
Feel like a murder but that's alright
Somebody said there's too much light
Pull down that shade and it's alright
It'll be over in a minute or two
I'm charged up, don't put me down
Don't feel like talking, don't mess around
I feel mean, but I feel okay
I'm charged up, electricity
Is that what you calling
The boys are making a big mess
This makes the girls all start to laugh
I don't know what they're talking about
The boys are worried, the girls are shocked
They pick the sound and let it drop
Nobody knows what they're talking about
I'm charged up, [Incomprehensible]
Don't tell the truth, I just tell lies
I'm picking up, but I left off
I'm charged up, it's pretty intense
I'm charged up, don't put me down
Don't feel like talking, don't mess around
And I feel mean, I feel okay
I'm charged up, electricity
And all I see is little dots
Some are smeared and some are spots
Feels like a murder but that's alright
Somebody said, there's too much light
Pull down the shade and it's alright
It will be over in a minute or two
I'm charged up, don't put me down
Don't feel like talking, don't mess around
I feel mean, I feel okay
I'm charged up, electricity
The boys are making a big mess
This makes the girls all start to laugh
I don't know what they're talking about
The boys are worried, the girls are shocked
They pick the sound and let it drop
Nobody know what they're talking about
I'm charged up, I'm kinda wooden
I'm barely moving, I study motion
I study myself, I fooled myself
I'm charged up, it's pretty intense
I'm charged up, don't put me down
Don't feel like talking, don't mess around
And I feel mean, I feel okay
Lost my shape-Trying to act casual!
Can't stop-I might end up in the hospital
I'm changing my shape-I feel like an accident
They're back!-To explain their experience
Isn't it weird/Looks too obscure to me
Wasting away/And that was their policy
I'm ready to leave-I push the fact in front of me
Facts lost-Facts are never what they seem to be
Nothing there!-No information left of any kind
Lifting my head-Looking for danger signs
There was a line/There was a formula
Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us
There was a line/There was a forula
Sharp as a knife/Facts cut a hole in us
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes
Lifting my head/looking around inside
The island of doubt-It's like the taste of medicine
Working by hindsight-Got the message from the oxygen
Making a list-Find the cost of opportunity
Doing it right-Facts are useless in emergencies
The feeling returns/Whenever we close out eyes
Lifting my head/Looking around inside.
Facts are simple and facts are straight
Facts are lazy and facts are late
Facts all come with points of view
Facts don't do what I want them to
Facts just twist the truth around
Facts are living turned inside out
Facts are getting the best of them
Facts are nothing on the face of things
Facts don't stain the furniture
Facts go out and slam the door
Facts are written all over your face
Facts continue to change their shape
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...I'm still waiting...
Day by day whistle while you work
Our backs are breaking up from hollow earth
From end to end the noise begins
In the human battle stations
And the big one's coming in
Work, work, work, work, work till holes are filled
Work, work, work, work bags of bone and skin
Lovers hold hands tossing their heads
Tangled in hair, tied to earth with skin and glue
But their skin is the same as yours
Coming in for the world to see
They can sit at the table, too
The same blood as you and me
Speak very softly, hold my hand
Someone is sleeping in my bed
Priests pass by, worms crawl in
One dreams to be, one dream for all
His skin is the same as yours
Is he not made the same as you?
And some have fallen down
And blood spilled on the ground
Work, work, work till his life is done
The old man is at our door
And he's knocking, knocking as his neighbors weep
Each day repeats, are we nothing in your eyes?
Someone answer, someone answer
This rusted garden gate can barely even stand
Their work is over now and rest will be at hand
Is their skin not the same as yours?
Can they sit at the table to drink
Cool water, cool water
And his lungs are filled with rain
Think of London, small city
Dark, dark in the daytime
People sleep, sleep in the daytime
If they want to, if they want to
I'm checking them out, I'm checking them out
I got it figured out, I got it figured out
Good points some bad points
But it all works out, I'm a little freaked out
Find a city, find myself a city to live in
I will find a city, find myself a city to live in
Lot of rich people in Birmingham
Lot of ghosts in a lot of houses
Look over there! Dry ice factory
Good place to get some thinking done
I'm checking them out, I'm checking them out
I got it figured out, I got it figured out
Good points some bad points
But it all works out, I'm a little freaked out
Find a city, find myself a city to live in
I will find a city, find myself a city to live in
I'm checking them out, I'm checking them out
I got it figured out, I got it figured out
Good points some bad points
But it all works out, sometimes I'm a little freaked out
Find a city, find myself a city to live in
I will find a city, find myself a city to live in
I forget to mention, forget to mention Memphis
Home of Elvis and the ancient Greeks
Do I smell? I smell home cooking
It's only the river, it's only the river
I'm checking them out, I'm checking them out
I got it figured out, I got it figured out
Good points some bad points
But it all works out, I'm a little freaked out
Find a city, find myself a city to live in
I will find a city, find myself a city to live in
Find a city, find myself a city to live in
I will find a city, find myself a city to live in
Take a look at these hands
Take a look at these hands
The hand speaks, the hand of a government man
Well I'm a tumbler born under punches, I'm so thin
All I want is to breathe
(I'm too thin)
Won't you breathe with me?
Find a little space, so we move in-between
(In-between it)
And keep one step ahead, of yourself
Don't you miss it, don't you miss it
Some of you people just about missed it
Last time to make plans
And I'm a tumbler, I'm a government man
Never seen anything like that before
Falling bodies tumble 'cross the floor
(Well I'm a tumbler)
When you get to where you wanna be
(Thank you! Thank you!)
When you get to where you wanna be
(Well, don't even mention it)
Oh, take a look at these hands, they're passing in-between us
Take a look at these hands
Take a look at these hands, you don't have to mention it
No thanks, I'm a government man
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on where the hand has been
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on
(I got time)
And the heat goes on
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
And the heat goes on, where the hand has been
And the heat goes on and the heat goes on
I'm not a drowning man
And I'm not a burning building! I'm a tumbler
Drowning cannot hurt a man
Fire cannot hurt a man, not the government man
All I want is to breathe
(Thank you, thank you)
Won't you breathe with me?
Find a little space so we move in-between
(I'm so thin)
And keep one step ahead of yourself
(I'm catching up with myself)
All I want is to breathe
Won't you breathe with me?
(Hands of a government man)
Find a little space so we move in-between
And keep one step ahead of yourself
(Don't you miss it! Don't you miss it!)
All I want is to breathe
Signs
Signs are lost
Signs disappeared
Turn invisible
Got no sign
Somebody got busted
Got a face of stone
And a ghostwritten biography
Dogs start to run in,
Hungry for some food
Dogs start a-twitching
And they're looking at you
It was light
By five
Torn all apart
All in the name of democracy
He's hurt
He's dying
Claimed he was a terrorist
Claimed to avert a catastrophe
Someone should'a told him
That the buck stops here
No one ever said
That he was involved with thieves
And they're blind, blind
blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
blind, blind
blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
No sense of harmony, No sense of
time, Don't mention harmony, Say:
What is it? What is it? What is it? Give
a little shock, and he raises his hand
Somebody shouts out, says: What is
it? What is it? What is it?
He was shot down in the night! Peop-
ple ride by but his body's still alive
The girl in the window what has she
done? She looks down at me ...
says: "I don't want to die!"
And I'm blind, blind
blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
blind, blind
blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
Somebody could have told us where they go
Crawling all around looking for foot, foot, footprints
Now tell me what the Hell have we become?
Some dirty little bastards What the Hell is going on?u
No sense of harmony, No sense of
time, Don't mention harmony, Say:
What is it? What is it? What is it? Give
a little shock, and he raises his hand
Somebody shouts out, says: What is
it? What is it? What is it?
He was shot down in the night! Peop-
ple ride by but his body's still alive
The girl in the window what has she
done? She looks down at me ...
says: "I don't want to die!"
They're blind and they're blind
blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
blind, blind
blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
blind, blind
blind, blind, blind, blind, blind
blind, blind
Naa naa naa
There was a man
Who grew too big
It didn't matter what he did
The girls would always run away
When everybody laughs at you
It can be humiliating
Billy likes a cute little girl
They are lovers, we can tell
Kisses on the mouth
Holding hands and all
Look into their eyes
Sneakin' off together
Runnin' to the woods
Swimmin' in the river
Cookin' up some food
Makin' up religions
Droppin' out of school
Laughin' through the summertime
Never meant to hurt nobody
Angel of God
Take me along
Happy days
Quiet life
We are not alone
He bought a gun
And she fixed her dress
I'm not afraid of Jesus Christ
Who cares about the price we pay
It's our little secret
And we're never, never, never going
Angel of God
Take me along
Happy days
Quiet life
I'm mad and that's a fact
I found out animals don't help
Animals think they're pretty smart
Shit on the ground, see in the dark
They wander around like a crazy dog
Make a mistake in the parking lot
Always bumping into things
Always let you down, down, down, down
Eh, eh, eh, eh
Animals think they understand
Most of them are a big mistake
Animals want to change my life
I will ignore, I don't know such place
They're never there when you need them
They're never there when you call them
They're never there when you need them
They're never there when you call them down
Down, down, down
I know the animals are laughing at us
Don't even know what a joke is
I won't follow animal's advice
I don't care if they're laughing at us
They're never there when you need them
They're never there when you call them
They're never there when you need them
They're never there when you call them down
Down, down
Eh, eh, eh
They say they don't need money
They're living on nuts and berries
They say animals don't worry
They're living on nuts and berries
You know animals are hairy?
They say animals don't worry
They think they know what's best
They're making a fool of us
They ought to be more careful
They're setting a bad example
They say animals don't worry
They're living on nuts and berries
They're setting a bad example
They ought to be more careful
You know animals are hairy?
They're living on nuts and berries
They want to know what's best
They're making a fool of us
They ought to be more careful
They're setting a bad example
They like to laugh at people
They're setting a bad example
They have untroubled lives
They think every thing's nice
They say they don't need money
They say animals don't worry
They're living on nuts and berries
You know animals are hairy?
They think they know what's best
They're making a fool of us
They like to laugh at people
They're making a bad example
They say they don't need money
You know animals are hairy?
They're living on nuts and berries
They say they don't need money
And she was lying in the grass
and she could hear the highway breathing.
And she could see a nearby factory
She's making sure she is not dreaming.
See the lights of a neighbor's house
now she's starting to rise.
Take a minute to concentrate and she opens up her eyes.
The world was moving
she was right there with it and she was -
The world was moving
she was floatin' above it and she was - and she was.
And she was drifting through the backyard
And she was taking off her dress.
And she was moving very slowly
rising up above the earth.
Moving into the universe and she's drifting this way and that.
Not touching the ground at all and she's up above the yard.
The world was moving
she was right there with it and she was -
The world was moving
she was floatin' above it and she was -
And she was glad about it
no doubt about it
She isn't sure about what she's done
No time to think about what to tell them
No time to think about what she's done and she was -
And she was looking at herself
and things were looking like a movie.
She had a pleasant elevation
she's moving out in all directions.
The world was moving
she was right there with it and she was -
The world was moving
she was floatin' above it and she was -
Joining the world of missing persons and she was -
Missing enough to feel alright and she was - and she was -
And she was - and she was - and she was -
Just beginning to take that love away
Just beginning to take that love away
In a minute I'll wash that love away
Even now we remember what we used to say
Takes a minute to wash that love away
Take a clean break wash that love away
Even now we remember what we used to say
Even now we remember what we used to say
We'll be together if we cut that love away
It's a matter of degrees and that's true, that's true
And it's taken to extremes and that's why we
Work so hard to take that love away
Take that love away, take that love away, take that love away
Just beginning to take that love away
Just beginning to take that love away
In a minute I'll wash that love away
Even now we remember what we used to say
Even now we remember what we used to say
We'll be together if we cut that love away
It's a matter of degrees and that's true, that's true
This is his perspective and it's taken to extremes and
That's why we work so hard to take that love away
Okay! Pretty
What is brand new, exactly I think of you
You'll touch me in a minute
But that's not what I want to do
We are two strangers
We might never have met
We can talk forever
I understand what you said
But I'm not in love, what does it take to fall in love?
Do people really fall in love?
You know it
Is there a time for this? Is this responsibility?
Girl time, boy time
Is that the difference between you and me?
I won't ask any questions
Who needs to make a new start
I choose to believe you
I said before that I can't
'Cause I'm not in love, what does it take to fall in love?
Do people really fall in love?
Feelings
Take it easy, baby
Don't let your feelings get in the way
I believe someday we'll live in a world without love
I can answer your questions
If you won't twist what I say
Please respect my opinions
They will be respected someday
But I don't need love, there'll come a day when we won't need love
Mommy, Daddy, come and look at me now
I'm a big man in a great big town
Years ago who would believe it's true
Goes to show what a little faith can do
I was complaining, I was down in the dumps
I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up
I slipped, and I got pulled
Pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up
I slipped, and I got pulled,
Pulled up, I slipped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up pull me up pull me up...
Pulled me up up up up up up up up
I drift away to another land
Sleeping dreaming such a simple thing
I think of things that I might be
I see my name go down in history
I was complaining, I was down in the dumps
I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up
I slipped, and I got pulled,
pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up
I tripped, and I got pulled
Pulled up, I slipped, and then you pulled
you pulled me up! Pulled me up up, Pulled me up...
Pulled me up up up up up up up up
I got up
'cause you pulled me up
I stood up
'cause you pulled me up
I got up
And that was because you pulled me up
I got up
In a little while you pulled me up
Pull me up up up up, up up up up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up!
I cast a shadow on the living-room wall
Dark and savage with a profile so sharp
Keep that wonderful food on the table
There's really no hurry I'll eat in a while
I was complaining, I was down in the dumps
I feel so strong now 'cause you pulled me up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up!
I slipped, and I got pulled
Pulled up, I tripped, and then you pulled,
you pulled me up
I slipped, and I got pulled
Pulled Up, I slipped,
And then you pulled, you pulled me up!
Pull me up... Pull me up... Watch out!
Pull me up up up up up up up up!
Pull me up up up up up up up up!
She had such tiny tears
Just like a Barbie doll
She likes to shop at Sears
And visit shopping malls
Now she's a big mamma
Tell poppa
Cry, cry, cry, cry
Old Money
Old money doesn't matter now
Have mercy
Mercy, mercy, daddy's going fishing now
He put the bait onto his line
And he's winding out his reel
Fish are swimming in the pond
Let 'em sail away
He's got his eye on you
He knows just what she wants
The fish is gonna bite
She is his latest catch
'Cause he's a Big Daddy
Oh, mammy
Cry, cry, cry, cry
Big Daddy
Oh, daddy's scraping bottom now
Oh, momma
Daddy, daddy, daddy does the talking now
Mesmerized like horny toads
By shiny things like jewels and gold
Throwing all their pearls to swine
Let 'em sail away
You lucky dog
You'll be on Easy Street
Drinking champagne
She gets all that she wants
His heart's desire
No more worries anymore
Like a fairy tale
Anything that she likes
I seen you do the dog
I seen you getting down
A swimming back and forth
When daddy's not around
Big Daddy
Oh, she's pretty as a picture now
Oh, momma
Oh, what a little martyr now
He knows how to drive 'em wild
What do you'd think she'd see
Saying "This is mine and this is hers.
Now take that stuff away"
Best left unspoken
One and one is two
The velvet lies sing softly
Each with a golden spoon
And she passed her time in the wind and the rain
Got a one way ticket on a Southbound train
Said baby, baby, wants to have a good time
And Big Daddy laughed
And Big Daddy smiled
Like dynamite
One fine day she'll explode
Who's laughing now?
No one sees anymore
Sneak in and out
Don't get caught running 'round
Swim back and forth
Wait, wait for the moment to come
stand up, stand up and take my hand
believe, believe in mystery
love love love love is simple as 1-2-3
I'm a know-it-all, i'm smartest man around
that's right, you learn real fast through the smartest girl in town
here come a riddle, here come a clue
if you were really smart, you'd know what to do
when...
Jump back, sit back, get back, relax
it's ok
i've called in sick i won't go to

jet pilot gone out of control, ship captain on the ground
stock broker make a bad investment when love has come to town
Where, where is my common sense?

love, love love love is simple as 1-2-3
Here come a riddle, here come a clue
if you were really smart, you'd know what to do when i say
why am i going out of my head, whenever you're around?
Can we run that again

She's my neighbor, fill my cup
I'll bet you, baby, she can fill it up
She'll put the sugar on my tongue
Will she gimme, gimme, gimme some?
Is she gonna put sugar on my tongue?
Is she gonna gimme, gimme, gimme some?
She'll put it right there on my tongue
Put it right there on my tongue
Sweet, sweet, lover, lover
Never, never, never find another
To put sugar on my tongue
Gimme, gimme, gimme some
Is she gonna put sugar on my tongue?
Is she gonna gimme, gimme, gimme some?
She'll put it right there on my tongue
Put it right there on my tongue
I've been waiting years and years
Finally I see that you appear
My friends are here, and they ask of me
"Is this the time that we're gonna see her
Put the sugar on your tongue?"
Is she gonna put sugar on my tongue?
Is she gonna put sugar on my tongue?
Is she gonna gimme, gimme some?
She'll put it right there on my tongue
Put it right there on my tongue
Sugar, sugar on my tongue
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I think that we can signify our love now
Ooh girl, you can initiate an impulse of love
Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry
Move a muscle, move a muscle, move a muscle
Make a motion, make a motion, make a motion
Pull it tighter, pull it tighter, pull it tighter
Double beatin', double beatin', double beatin'
Double beatin', double beatin', double beatin'
Palpitation, palpitation, palpitation
Stay hungry, stay hungry, stay hungry
Here's that rhythm again
Here's my shoulder blade
Here's the sound I made
Here's the picture I saved
Time won't change you, money won't change you
I haven't got the faintest idea
Everything seems to be up in the air at this point
I need something to change your mind
I need something to change your mind
I need something to change your mind
I need something to change your mind
Drugs won't change you, religion won't change you
I haven't got the faintest idea
Everything seems to be up in the air at this time
I need something to change your mind, mind
I need something to change your mind, mind
I need something to change your mind, mind
I need something to change your mind, mind
Science won't change you, looks like I can't change you
I try to talk to you to make things clear
But you're not even listening to me
And it comes directly from my heart to you
I need something to change your mind, mind
I need something to change your mind, mind
I need something to change your mind, mind
Ohhh dear
What if everything they say is true?
Ohhh, ohhh dear
Then there won't be anything for me and you
Well
Even if we have to start all over again
What will be the point in being a fool again?
Even if, even if we have to start all over again
Oh what will be, what will be, what will be
The point in being a fool again?
Oh oh oh... no no no
I made a decision
Revised it again
I saw what it meant to both my parents and friends
And I couldn't do it if I had tried
I couldn't hide my feelings inside
I say that's not my way, that's not my way
That's not like me, that's not like me
That's not my way, that's not my way
That's not like me, that's not like me
I couldn't do it, I couldn't do it
Ohh and I tried, I tried and I tried
I say that's not like me, that's not like me
That's not my way, that's not my way
I couldn't do it, I couldn't do it
I couldn't try, try try try
That's not my way, that's not my way
That ain't my way
If I feel it in my heart
There's a word for it
Words don't mean a thing
There's name for it
Names make all the difference in the world
Some things can never be spoken
Some things cannot be pronounced
That word does not exist in any language
It will never be uttered by a human mouth
Let X make a statement
Let breath pass through those cracked lips
That man was my hero
Now that word has been taken from us
Some things can never be spoken
Some things cannot be pronounced
That word does not exist in any language
It will never be uttered by a human mouth
Give me back my name, give me back my name
Something has been changed in my life
Something has been changed in my life
Something must be returned to us
Something must be returned to us
That word does not exist in any language
It will never be uttered by a human mouth
Give me back my name, give me back my name
Something has been changed in my life
Something has been changed in my life
Something must be returned to us
I will fight, will fight with my heart
I will fight, will fight with understanding
In my mind the weather never changes
Skill overcomes unfavorable conditions
A straight line exists between me and the good thing
I have found the line and its direction is known to me
Absolute trust keeps me going in the right direction
Any intrusion is met with a heart full of the good thing
Try to compare what I am presenting
You will meet with much frustration
Try to find... similar situation
You will always find the same solution
As the heart finds the good thing, the feeling is multiplied
Add the will to the strength, and it equals conviction
As we economize, efficiency is multiplied
To the extent I am determined the result is the good thing
So I say:
I have adopted this and made it my own
Girls don't want to play like that
Just want to talk to the boys
Just want to do what is in their hearts
And the girls want to be with the girls
And the boys say, "What do you mean?"
Yes, the boys say, "What do you mean?"
Well, there's just no love
When there's boys and girls
And the girls want to be with the girls
Yes, the girls want to be with the girls
Girls want things that make common sense
The best for all concerned
Don't want to have to go out of their way
And the girls want to be with the girls
And the boys say, "What do you mean?"
Yes, the boys say, "What do you mean?"
Well, there's just no love
When there's boys and girls
And the girls want to be with the girls
Yes, the girls want to be with the girls
Girls are getting into abstract analysis
Wouldn't like to make that intuitive leap
They're making plans that have far reaching effects
And the girls want to be with the girls
And the boys say, "What do you mean?"
Yes, the boys say, "What do you mean?"
Well, there's just no love
When there's boys and girls
And the girls want to be with the girls
Mon key see and mon key do

The facts of life
The facts of life
A masterpiece
Biology
Smokey water
Air conditioned
Boys 'n' girls
And automation
Chromosomes
Designer jeans
Chimpanzees
And human beings
Machines of love
Machines of love
Strong in body, strong in mind
A love machine with the facts of life
The facts of life
The facts of life
So much sex 'n' violence
Must be a bad design
We're stupid to be fighting
Every night
The monsters we create
They welcome us aboard
The best in advertising
From coast to coast
The girls and boys combine
Like monkeys in the zoo
The clouds have silver linings
Looks pretty good
People fall in love like in fairy tales
I'm not sure I like, what they can do
I'm afraid that God has no master plan
He only takes -- what he can use
Factory life, ice cream & pie
Factory life
Someday we'll live on Venus
And men will walk on Mars
But we will still be monkeys
Down deep inside
If chimpanzees are smart
Then we will close our eyes
And let our instincts guide us
A woman made a man
A man he made a house
And when they lay together
Little creatures all come out
Well, I've seen sex and I think it's alright
It makes those little creatures come to life
I can laugh or I can turn away
Well, I've seen sex and I think it's okay
We are creatures, creatures of love
We are creatures, creatures of love
From the sleep of reason, a life is born
We are creatures of love, we are creatures of love
It's okay to be afraid
When the blue spark hits your brain
We can love one another
I've been told that it's okay
Doctor, doctor, tell me what I am
Am I one of those human beings
Well I can laugh or I can learn to think
So help me now to find out what I feel
We are creatures, creatures of love
We are creatures, creatures of love
We've been here forever, before you were born
We are creatures of love, we are creatures of love
A man can drive a car
And a woman can be a boss
I'm a monkey and a flower
I'm everything at once
Well, a woman and a man can be together
If they decide to, they'll make little creatures
Watch 'em now!
Little creature of love
With two arms and two legs
From a moment of passion
Now they cover the bed
We are creatures of love, we are creatures of love
We are creatures, creatures of love
We are creatures, creatures of love
From the sleep of reason a life is born
He would see faces in movies, on T.V., in magazines, and in books...
He thought that some of these faces might be right for him... And
that through the years, by keeping an ideal facial structure fixed in his
mind... Or somewhere in the back of his mind... That he might, by
force of will, cause his face to approach those of his ideal... The
change would be very subtle... It might take ten years or so...
Gradually his face would change its shape... A more hooked nose...
Wider, thinner lips... Beady eyes... A larger forehead.
He imagined that this was an ability he shared with most other
people... They had also molded their faces according to some
ideal... Maybe they imagined that their new face would better
suit their personality... Or maybe they imagined that their
personality would be forced to change to fit the new appear-
ance... This is why first impressions are often correct...
Although some people might have made mistakes... They may have
arrived at an appearance that bears no relationship to them...
They may have picked an ideal appearance based on some childish
whim, or momentary impulse... Some may have gotten half-way
there, and then changed their minds.
Oh, oh, baby you can walk, you can talk just like me
You can walk, you can talk just like me
You can look, tell me what you see
You can look, you won't see nothing like me
If you look around the world
Oh, baby you can walk, you can talk just like me
With a little practice you can walk like, talk just like me
If that's what you wanna do
Well you can look, you'll walk in circles around me
But first, I'll walk in circles around you
But first, I'll walk around the world
I'm walking 'round the world
I... you can
I'll walk in circles around you
I... I am just a number
I... hang on to what I got
You... say what you want to
I... I...I... I just try to stay alive
I... put myself together
People say, get away, somebody will turn you in
Life, life without surrender
Togetherness... ecstasy is what I need
I can laugh, but I should cry
When love and understanding are the ultimate crimes
(And I said) Walk it down. Talk it down.
(oh, oh, oh) Sympathy. Luxury.
Somebody will take you there.
Walk it down. Talk it down.
(oh, oh, oh) Sympathy. Luxury.
Somebody will take you there.
She... says she remembers.
Time... long time ago.
We... belong together.
I... I...I... I turn up the radio
Lies, lies and propaganda
I... gonna tell you what I need
Life, life, without surrender
Togetherness... ecstasy is what I need
I got yours and you got mine
And I can swim, but I should fly
CHORUS
Ain't no crime to believe
I took my money, I bet my life
What you see is what you get
But it sure ain't what we need.
In 1950 when I was born
Papa couldn't afford to buy us much
He said be proud of what you are
There's something special 'bout people like us
People like us
(Who will answer the telephone)
People like us
(Growing as big as a house)
People like us
(Gonna make it because)
We don't want freedom
We don't want justice
We just want someone to love.
Someone to love.
I was called upon in the 3rd grade class
I gave my answer and it caused a fuss
I'm not the same as ev'ryone else
And times were hard for people like us
People like us
(Who will answer the telephone)
People like us
(Growing as big as a house)
People like us
(Gonna make it because)
We don't want freedom
We don't want justice
We just want someone to love.
Someone to love.
What good is freedom?
God laughs at people like us
I see it coming
Like a light coming down from above
The clouds roll by and the moon comes up
How long must we live in the heat of the sun
Millions of people are waitin' on love
And this is a song about people like us
People like us
(Who will answer the telephone)
People like us
(Growing big as a house)
People like us
(Gonna make it because)
We don't want freedom
We don't want justice
We just want someone to love.
Someone to love.
Someone to love.
Oh well, I'm dressed up so nice
And I'm doing my best
And I'm starting over
I'm starting over in another place
Lemme tell you a story
A big chief with a golden crown
He's got rings on his fingers
And then he walks up, up to the throne
He's making shapes with his hands
And don't you dare sit back
And don't you dare sit down
And don't you dare speak up
And on the first day we had everything we could stand
Who could've asked for more?
And on a second day there was nothing else left to do
Oh what a day that was
Well there are fifty thousand beggars
Roaming in the streets
And they have lost all their possessions
And they have nothing left to eat
Down come a bolt of lightning
Start an electrical storm
And starts a chain reaction
"Go pull a fire alarm", I said that
I'm dreaming of a city
It was my own invention
I put the wheels in motion
A time for big decisions
And on the first day we had everything we could stand
Oh and then we let it fall
And on a second day there was nothing else left at all
Oh what a day that was
What a day that was
And that's the way it goes
There's a million ways to get things done
There's a million ways to make things work out
Oh well, I'm going right through
And the light came down
And they're rounding them up
From all over town
They're moving forward and backwards
Moving backwards and front
And they're enjoying themselves
Moving in every direction
And if you feel like you're in a whirlpool
You feel like going home
You feel like talking to someone
Who know the difference between right and wrong
And on the first day we had everything we could stand
Oh and then we let it fall
And on a second day there was nothing else left at all
Oh what a day that was
We're going boom, boom, boom and that's the way we live
And in a great big room and that's the way we live
We're going boom, boom, boom and that's the way we live
And in a great big room and that's the way we live
We're going boom, boom, boom and that's the way we live

![The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis), also known as the silvertip bear, is a subspecies of brown bear (Ursus arctos) that generally lives in the uplands of western North America. This subspecies is thought to descend from Ussuri brown bears which crossed to Alaska from Eastern Russia 100,000 years ago, though they did not move south until 13,000 years ago.[1] Grizzlies are normally solitary active animals, but in coastal areas the grizzly congregates alongside streams, lakes, rivers, and ponds during the salmon spawn. Every other year, females (sows) produce one to four young (commonly two) which are small and weigh only about 500 grams (one pound). A sow is protective of her offspring and will attack if she thinks she or her cubs are threatened.](http://web.archive.org./web/20140523051731im_/http://cdn3.wn.com/ph/img/1f/66/6026cbb97399a2dd5c8baa609dd2-small.jpg "The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis), also known as the silvertip bear, is a subspecies of brown bear (Ursus arctos) that generally lives in the uplands of western North America.
