Some days are all Mondays
Sort of time on ice
It seems like jet planes
On snowed in runways
Under clear blue skies
Who needs it?
Nothing is real but the girl
Nothing is real but her
Money goes to money
In a figure eight around me
Mommy
Who's gonna love me if I liquidate and drown me?
Nothing is real but the girl
Nothing else feels solid
We believe in love
We believe in little things
Like heaven up above and seven it's a lucky number
We believe that something lives inside every thing there is
Don't think about it much
I mean it
I believe it
I believe it
Wind down
Put your mind down
Like your missing school
You'll teach her to find out
While your dying
In your living room
How much you need her
Nothing is real but the girl
Only her eyes are solid
Nothing is real but her
We don't wear that uniform
Paper men from pages torn
Right off the press (it could be Tass)
Suits for the regime
The media's gone and had a baby
Seventh wave, another navy
I live in America
Gridlock on the street
Tell that girl you like her badge
Tell that man you're the Nazz
Tell me you're not the last walking in parade
Dressed to test you up the road
Tighter than the lightest clothes
Close the circle, walk in row
Walking in parade
Why don't you walk like me?
Walk like me?
Walk like me?
Carrying the standard stick
And marrying the politic
You won't know tomorrow
What went down today
Look at me; I'm in tune
References around my room
Just another secret school
Another cycle going by
You, you never looked like that
Don't look like me, don't take it back
You never had a name like that
Never had a colour
Walking like a millionaire
Walking on imported air
Change the way you comb your hair
And watch what you walk under
Why don't you walk like me?
Walk like me?
Walk like me?
Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh
Heh, heh, heh
Heh, why don't you?
Why don't you walk like me?
Walk like me?
Walk like me?
Walk like me?
I was all alone with the scent of a bone
And my heart was stuck in this emptiness zone
I had not a care, though I wanted to hear
The voice of a maiden who was playing down there
At the rifle range, I lost my heart
At the rifle range, I could not start
At the rifle range, she left me so hot
At the rifle range
Like a victim of truce I was strung on a noose
Cracking at the news of a prey let loose
I turned around to stare at the face she would wear
And I ran through the gallows, her heart was down there
At the rifle range, I lost my heart
At the rifle range, I could not start
At the rifle range, I heard a shot
At the rifle range
If I lose my head, we'll be certainly dead
With visions of acid, how I wish they bled
The drummings of fear cause they're getting so near
And I think of a lion who was devoured down there
Yeah yeah yeah!
At the rifle range, I lost my heart
At the rifle range, I could not start
At the rifle range, I heard a shot
At the rifle range, she left me so hot
At the rifle range
Bang bang! At the rifle range
I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall
If you don't answer, I'll just ring it off the wall
I know he's there, but I just had to call
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
I heard your mother now she's going out the door
Did she go to work or just go to the store
All those things she said, I told you to ignore
Oh why can't we talk again
Oh why can't we talk again
Oh why can't we talk again
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
It's good to hear your voice, you know it's been so long
If I don't get your call then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something you've known all along
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
I had to interrupt and stop this conversation
Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation
I'd like to talk when I can show you my affection
Oh I can't control myself
Oh I can't control myself
Oh I can't control myself
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
Whoah, hang up and run to me
I see all the lonely souls
Nowhere left to go
I see you're the lonely
You're my one and only chance
Let's walk before we dance
You're my one and only
So take my hand and help me stand
So we can watch the end
Hold my hand and help me stand
So we can watch the end, the end
Together, together
Looking at the past
I never thought we'd last
Looking at it, never thought we'd last
And if I have to go
I'll see your face before
If I have to go
So take my hand and help me stand
So we can watch the end
Hold my hand and help me stand
So we can watch the end, the end
Together, together
Oh, don't speak, listen, my prediction
All I'll be missing is you
Tell me your vision, my decision is true
It's true, it's true, it's true
So take my hand and help me stand
So we can watch the end
Hold my hand and help me stand
So we can watch the end, the end
Now I know you know
I tried to love you so
And now I have to go
You sound so inspiring when you pledged your support
But I've learned how to read right between the lines
And see into your thoughts the game that you're playing
You know, you almost had a win but I had a hunch of my own
You see and followed it to the end now
I don't have hard feelings against you
You only did what you had to do
But the time has come to let you know
I know about the loving show
Now I know you know
How I tried to love you so
And now I have to go
I've said that my music will play second love to none
But you haven't learned to love yourself you had to be the only one
The way that I feel, I really want you to succeed
So I don't understand why you simply can't recognize my needs
Well, I don't have hard feelings against you
I guess you only did what you had to do
But the time has come to let you know
I know about the loving show
Now I know you know
How I tried to love you so
And now I have to go
Now I know you know
How I tried to love you so
And now I have to go
I got a right to live and be in love
I wrote this song for someone else to sing
To see what a meeting of the minds might bring
But we're not exactly two of a kind
And our meeting has come to a grind
Words in my mouth
Thoughts in my head
Don't put your words in my mouth
That's not what I meant
Got an appetite for seduction
Muzzleloader and chewing gum
We're on opposite sides of a line
And our meeting has come to a grind
Eat your words, hold my tongue
Bite and bitten, beat the one
Get to the bottom and the womb will turn
Eat your words, hold my tongue
Bite and bitten, beat the one
Get to the bottom and the womb will turn
Words in my mouth
Thoughts in my head
Don't put your words in my mouth
That's not what I meant
Words in my mouth
Thoughts in my head
Don't put your words in my mouth
Hey, y'know?
Uh, I dunno!
I know but I don't know
I know but I don't know
I know but I don't know
I know but I don't know
I give but I don't get
I will but I won't yet
I lose but I don't bet
I'm your dog but not your pet
I know but I don't care
Then I know but I don't see
Now I see but I don't know
I care but I don't care
I could but I won't be
You can but not with me
It's all a mystery
Locked out without a key
Now I care but I don't care
And I know but I don't see
Now I see but I don't know
I know but I don't know
Now I know that you don't know
And I see that you don't see
I care but I don't care
I always said you could make it
I know what I said and I meant it
I always liked the way you played guitar
I always knew that someday you'd go far
An' if you do, will anything happen?
Will it come true, will anything happen?
Will I see you again?
You said you'd be through here again
Please don't forget I'm here waiting
You always said that you would never change
Like the people that you've met and the places that you've been
An' if you do, will anything happen?
Will it come true, will anything happen?
Will I see you again?
I always said you could make it
Just don't forget that I said it
Cause I always liked the way you played guitar
And I always knew that someday you'd go far
An' if you do, will anything happen?
Will it come true, will anything happen?
Will I see you again?
Will I see you again?
Will I see you again?
The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one

(Whoo, whoo, whoo)
But it's the way you do the things you do to me
(Ah)

The order came directly from the CIA
To start the following investigation
Find out what's the hidden power lying in the grooves
That drives em crazy all across the nation
They found the jam was moving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
It makes the people keep grooving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
The agent, who assigned Jim to investigate
When he came home he found to his amazement
He saw his own children live on Colt 45
And they were rocking popping in the basement
They found the jam was moving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
It makes the people keep grooving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
They found the jam was moving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
It makes the people keep grooving
Go ahead now, go ahead now

You better look out, and find out what's the hidden power lying in the grooves
They're going crazy crazy crazy crazy all across the nation
Agent said, "Found the jam was moving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
It makes the people keep grooving
Go ahead now"
The jam was moving
The people keep grooving
I know a girl from a lonely street
Cold as ice cream, but still as sweet
Dry your eyes, Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide, Sunday girl
Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I stay away all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me
She can't catch up with the working crowd
The weekend mood and she's feeling proud
Live in dreams, Sunday girl
"Baby, I would like to go out tonight
If I go with you my folks'll get uptight"
Stay at home, Sunday girl
Oooh oooh oooh
He , j'ai vu ton mec avec une autre fille

Ce que ton amour repre sente pour moi
He , j'ai vu ton mec avec une autre fille
Il semblait dans un autre monde
Cours te cacher Sunday girl
All I want is a room with a view
A sight worth seeing, a vision of you
All I want is a room with view, oh-oh
I will give you my finest hour
The one I spent watching you shower
I will give you my finest hour, oh yeah
All I want is a photo in my wallet
A small remembrance of something more solid
All I want is a picture of you
Picture this - a day in December
Picture this - freezing cold weather
You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids
If it weren't for your job at the garage
If you could only oh-oh
Picture this - a sky full of thunder
Picture this - my telephone number
One and one is what I'm telling you, oh yeah
All I want is 20-20 vision
A total portrait with no omissions
All I want is a vision of you, oh-oh
If you can picture this - a day in December
Picture this - freezing cold weather
You got clouds on your lids and you'd be on the skids
If it weren't for your job at the garage
If you could only oh-oh
Picture this - a sky full of thunder
Picture this - my telephone number
One and one is what I'm telling you
Get a pocket computer
Faces
Cracked for reason beyond recognition
Uh-huh
His space is
At the Palace, he sleeps for twenty five cents
Uh-huh
Now he's wiping headlights
Windshields with an old rag
It ain't nine to five
Down and dirty, he's an old tramp
He poses like a dead man
The night train passes by
Money's
Not the answer for princes and dancers
Uh-huh
He's standing under street lights
He's thinking of his old life
He lost his pretty young wife
The corner is his big plan
His brunch with Jim and jitters
Boston blue laws ain't for shitters
And newsprint is for cheaters
Cement mattress for believers
A dirty old bum
He's a dirty old bum
He can't say "Yes"
He can't forget it A dirty old bum
Now he's shooting power curves
His buddies think he's got some nerve
Mrs Face had other lovers
Her arms smothered other numbers
He freezes
Christmas season, all saints protect him
Uh-huh
His face is
Cracked for reason beyond recognition
When I met you in the restaurant
You could tell I was no debutante
You asked me what's my pleasure
A movie or a measure?
I'll have a cup of tea and tell you of my dreaming
Dreaming is free
I don't want to live on charity
Pleasure's real or is it fantasy?
Reel to reel is living rarity
People stop and stare at me We just walk on by - we just keep on dreaming
Feet feet, walking a two mile
Meet meet, meet me at the turnstile
I never met him, I'll never forget him
Dream dream, even for a little while
Dream dream, filling up an idle hour
Fade away, radiate
I sit by and watch the river flow
I sit by and watch the traffic go
Imagine something of your very own
Something you can have and hold
I'd build a road in gold just to have some dreaming
Dreaming is free
Dreaming
Dreaming is free
Dreaming
Surf's up
In the sun, I'm waiting for the day
Having fun, in warm far away
Moonlight nights, water seems so clear
Ooh city lights while I'm still waiting here
In the sun, it's for everyone
In the sun, were gonna have some fun
In the sun, were gonna shoot the tube
I'll do it for you, my paka lola luau love
New York isle is covered by grey
Concrete piles, blues play my way
Tropic haze, pineapple sky
Perfect wave, hurricane eye
In the sun, it's for everyone
In the sun, were gonna have some fun
In the sun, were gonna shoot the tube
I'll do it for you, my paka lola luau love
In the sun, it's for everyone
In the sun, were gonna have some fun
In the sun, were gonna shoot the tube
I'll do it for you, my paka lola luau love
Where is my wave?
Oh Denis
Oh Denis
Oh Denis
Oh when we walk it always feels so nice
And when we talk it seems like paradise
Denis Denis I'm so in love with you
You're my king and I'm in heaven every time I look at you
When you smile it's like a dream
And I'm so lucky 'cause I found a boy like you
Denis Denis, oh with your eyes so blue
Denis Denis, I've got a crush on you
Denis Denis, I'm so in love with you

Man overboard, sinking in a sea of love
Man overboard, he jumped, didn't need a shove
Oh, I've been sailing the sea of love, experiencing romance
With what I know (with what I know) he never stood a chance
He gave it all for love
He gave it all for love
Said, lower the boats, he's sinking in a sea of love
Lower the boats, he's sinking in a sea of love
Yeah, I've been sailing the sea of love, experiencing romance
With what I know (with what I know) he never stood a chance
No! Man overboard
Man overboard
Man overboard
Man overboard
Throw him a line
Man overboard
He gave it all for love
He gave it all for love
He gave it, he gave it all for love
Man overboard
Your old lover's lying in the gutter
He used to be such an all night strutter
"Oh, my heart," I heard him mutter
"Oh, my dear, it seems to flutter"
Ah, ah
It's so hard to say "No"
When the deck is stacked to only go slow
It's easy sweet to live it up
An easy street when you've had enough
Ah, ah
Darkened night, splashing light
Soft and white and so polite
Let him in, beneath the rim
Beneath the skin, your next of kin
Cleansing fire, funeral pyre
Broken wire grown inside her
Secret hush, swollen rush
It's soft and plush, it's so plush
You know it's so passe
To sleep without you every day
So easy to do your stuff
So easy to live it up
Greetings Ladies and Gentlemen of Earth and all native intelligences
of the forty planets, satellites, moons, stars,
and any other inhabited orbs
with contestants entered in the annual Grande Trex,
the only inter-galactic race.
This year's event promises excitement to surpass all previous races.
As many of you fans already know the route or track of the orbits, glides, etc.
has been increased by 5,000 million kilometers
thus enabling Grande Trex to include the B'Arc System,
in our present event and for all succeeding GT races.

But I learned they weren't real
Figments of the ancient fear

Maneuvers preprogramme
Windage
Won't operate
Negative bearing swell
Dragons fly they symbolize in myth and saga breathing fire
Look up there's one flying higher
Faster than the SCC
Is science hiding witchery?
Grande Trex fans throughout the universe are well informed
on the risks pilots take in entering this race, i.e.
re-entry into some of the alien atmospheres is tricky business
which can cause a craft to implode, explode, melt,
lose automatic structure, etc., while en route.
The craft are scheduled to surface launch 0700.5100
Greenwich time and are assembled on one of our very own stars,
Neutron Einstar EV 9.
The excitement is at a fevered pitch as the countdown approaches zero.
These hypersonic inertial transition ships
can calculate the negligible quantity of spherical differential for tight orbit,
are sonar-radar balanced and translate windage occurrence,
offset verniers, retrieve, execute prepare,
delay code and report astrogational error in a micro-second.
Naturally these specialized craft are equipped with apparatus capable
of highly sensitive maneuverability.
They can dive, sweep, run random parallel paths,
alternate axes, circumnavigate for rapid survey, spin,
count milibaricly while simultaneously displaying an accurate diagram grid
for safety measures, not to mention the quanta limitation fixtures for sea level,
ground level, level off, and hover bearings.
We have retained as an added feature to stimulate more thrills,
the computer over-ride for a three and one half hours to two gens during
which pilots and co-pilots manually control free-fall, latitude,
longitude, protact gravity, revise dimensional equations,
run programme checks, submerge in the wild oceans of Jonrin 22,
to photograph as much territory as they can in addition
to the requisite three thousand automatic shots.
The postulate for mischance runs high but not as high as the tension
and competitive spirit right here on Earth and all over
the 4 galaxies represented in this Seventh Grande Trex.

In love with love, in love even when we're apart
In love with love, in love with a passionate heart
In love with love, in love even when we're apart
I wondered the difference of how it could last
I heard the celebration of champagne in glass
No wonder, it's no wonder why I'm
In love with love, in love with a passionate heart
In love with love, in love with the form of the art
We love through the fighting of everyday life
Of glass that gets broken and cuts like a knife
I wonder and I wonder why I'm
In love with love, in love with a passionate heart
In love with love, then on with the delicate march

[Ad lib 'til fade]
Far from day, far from night
Out of time, out of sight
In between earth and sea
We shall fly, follow me
Dry the rain, warm the snow
Where the winds never go
Follow me, follow me
Follow me
Follow me to a cave by a sapphire shore
Where we'll walk through an emerald door
And for thousands of breathless "evermore's" my life you will be
Only you, only I
World farewell, world goodbye
To our home 'neath the sea
We shall fly, follow me
Only you, only I
World farewell, world goodbye
To our home 'neath the sea
We shall fly, follow me
Follow me, follow me
Was it destiny
I don't know yet
Was it just by chance? Could this be Kismet?
Something in my consciousness told me you'd appear
Now I'm always touched by your presence dear
When we play at cards you use an extra sense (it's really not cheating)
You can read my hand, I've got no defence
When you sent your messages whispered loud and clear
I am always touched by your presence dear
Floating past the evidence of possibilities
We could navigate together, psychic frequencies
Coming into contact with outer entities
We could entertain each one with our theosophies
Stay awake at night and count your R.E.M.'s when you're talking with your super friends
Levitating lovers in the secret stratosphere
I am still in touch with your presence dear
I am still in touch with your presence dear
Look up the right words
The ones for today
And use them correctly
And mean what I say
Answer the questions
Crossword confession
Interrogation
I'm down, can we meet
Is it true, do you cheat?
How far can I go?
How much do you know?
What's the definition?
How much did she mention?
How much does she know?
Can I find the right words to say?
The right words are so hard to say
It's a challenger puzzle
From the magazine section
Across with the questions
Do the ethics of reference
One hundred twenty brain teasers to torment you
One hundred thoughts
I can't find the right words to say
My meaning's not quite getting through
The right words are so hard to say
Can I find the right words for you?
Let's not hedge our bets
'Cause the odds are dependent
Please listen instead
Now the whispers are ending
The point's misleading
As points often do
Stars live in the evening
But the very young need the sun, uh-huh
Pretty baby, you look so heavenly
A neo-nebular from under the sun
I was forming, some say I had my chance
The boys were falling like an avalanche
Ya ya baby
La Dolce Vita is a magic dance
No-one was listening
Pretty baby, un petite ingenue
A teenage starlet, I fell in love with you
You, you with the comb
You look OK in every way (every way)
Ah, I should have known
You'd look at me and look away (and look away - oh)
Pretty baby, you look so heavenly
A neo-nebular from under the sun
Eyes that tell me incense and peppermints
Your looks are larger than life, long live innocence
Petite ingenue, I fell in love with you
Pretty baby, I fell in love with you, whoah oh
Pretty baby, oh oh
Backfired
Your plan, your plan backfired
Backfired
My man, your plan backfired in your face
You came into my life to test me
Your diplomatic drag depressed me
The glitter in your eyes undressed me
You were polished slick
Really thick
Wasting time dropping lines like
"I could get you into movies"
But we wound up at Hot Jo's for hamburgers to go
Backfired
Your plan backfired
Backfired
My man, your plan backfired in your face
To steal my mind was your objective
The way you spoke was too aggressive
The silly jokes were not impressive
Like "A travelling salesman met a farmer with three daughters", yet
All the quips were so suggestive
Then we ran down to Hot Jo's for hamburgers to go
Backfired
Your plan backfired
Backfired
My man, your plan backfired in your face
Well, come here my little dear, I've got what it takes
Give me just what I want and I'll give you a break
Well, don't slip on your lips cause you're talking so fast
Buying for first, crying for last
Well come on my little lady, don't shoot me down
I've got strong connections all over town
Just drop to a dead stop (what?)
Backfired
Your plan backfired
Backfired
My man, your plan backfired in your face
You were polished slick. Really thick
Wasting time dropping lines
Backfired
"A travelling salesman met a farmer with three daughters", yet
Backfired
Backfired
Your plan backfired
Couldn't work out no
Backfired
My man, your plan
Backfired in your face
It backfired
Backfired
Your plan just backfired
Oh no, it couldn't work out, backfired
Better get a new line and try it again
Slick performance on demand
Backfired
You better back up fast and head out west
You may still collect
Backfired
It backfired
Your plan backfired
Too bad
Backfired
My man, your plan backfired
Well, come here my little dear, I've got what it takes
Give me just what I want and I'll give you a break
Well, don't slip on your lips cause you're talking so fast
Buying for first, crying for last
Well come on my little lady, don't shoot me down
I've got strong connections all over town
Oh, I don't want you to go
Oh, please don't leave me alone
No, I don't want you to go
Oh, please don't leave me alone
Dear Annett
Soon I'll be with you before they know
Before the show
I'm not a whore, I dance no more
I'll be with you across the border, dearest Anastasia
I'm leaving soon. I'm sorry to
But burn this letter, burn my picture
They won't know I've crossed the border
Love, Victor
Oh, I don't want you to go
Oh, don't leave me alone
Oh, oh, what are we gonna do?
Union, Union, Union City blue
Tunnel to the other side
It becomes daylight
I say he's mine
Oh power, passion plays a double hand
Union, Union Union City man
Arrive, climb up four flights
To the orange side
Rearrange my mind
In turquoise Union, Union, Union City blue
Skyline, passion, Union City blue
Power, passion plays a double hand
Union, Union, Union City man
I say he's mine
I have a plan
I say he's my Union City man
Oh, oh, what are we gonna do?
Giant ants from space snuff the human race
Then they eat your face, never leave a trace
La la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
They shoot fire all around. Tokyo burns down
Everybody drowns. The moon falls on the ground
La la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
They can't be stopped at all. The buildings start to fall
Soldiers shoot all day and then they run away
La la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
The world is holocaust. Everything is lost
Mankind is destroyed. Sprinkled in the void
La la la la la, la la la la la, la la la la la
Giant ants from space waste the human race
Then they eat your face, never leave a trace
Circle high, circle low
Jammers fly, T-birds
You show, you show, whiplash go
You show, you show, T-birds
Mighty bird
T-bird, my mighty bird
On the dot in the slot, tie the knot
On the dot timed kisses
In the slot on the dot, tie the knot
In the slot, no misses
Mighty bird
T-bird, my mighty bird
T-bird, mighty bird
Black sun conqueror
Black sun worshipper
Coil it up, wind it out, strike it hot
Coil it up plumed serpent
Coil it up, wind it out, strike it hot
Coil it up, my T-bird
Serpent curl
T-bird, rule the world
T-bird, mighty bird
Black sun born again
Oh I love my T-bird, T-bird
Oh I love my T-bird, T-bird
Oh I love my T-bird, T-bird
You know he can't be tested, he can't be read or found
Urban grey takes breath away, he wants to push his pedal to the ground
And the night's what's right, puts him at the wheel
Well, I eat danger, any stranger is all right
Feel hot to go like Jimmy O, dodging flying objects at the show
And the lights make me fight
In Detroit 442, maybe, baby, I could ride with you
This town's a concrete factory and Dad and Mum look just like me
I'm on the plant assembly line. Too late now. Too far behind
You said you wanna hang around, no-one really cares where you go
Take your time. Things never change
In Detroit 442, maybe, baby, I could ride with you
In Detroit 442, maybe, baby, I could ride with you
In Detroit 442, maybe, baby, I could ride with you
In Detroit 442, maybe, baby, I could ride with you
You look good in blue
It matches your skin, your eyes dripping with pain
Someone like you
Getting off on the lies 'cause it dulls your surprise again
If it's alright with you
I could give you some head and shoulders to lie on
You look good in blue
I know what you mean when you say you've seen the end
Someone like you
Been at it again, you knew what was up in the end
If it's alright with you
I could give you some head and shoulders to lie on
Throw your weight on me baby
Don't complain on me baby
Escape in me, next to me
I'm tired, always tired and I got not place to sleep
Don't mind dividing down the line
Can't say that I'm complaining 'cause I got no place to play, yeah
Don't mind dividing down the line
You look good in blue
It matches your skin, your eyes dripping with pain
If it's alright with you
I could give you some head and shoulders to lie on
We fell in love down at the pier
You were sunbathing, I was around
Soon we were sharing a beer
We fell in love at the pier
I'm no sentimental slob so don't think I'm queer
You got something baby and it ain't just my beer
Well, maybe it's the hot pants, maybe the heat
Or was it the sneakers you kicked of your feet?
I sat under my umbrella to keep my pearly skin
You tanned your oily body looking like sin
Well, soon I was sweating and I wanted to leave
You slipped into the water from too much grease
Well, I saw you yelling. I just couldn't hear
So I screamed back at you "Honey keep the beer!"
We never consummated our outside love affair
Too much tar and water, too much hot air
Oh, what a tragic end to love that was lost
We would have stood a chance if we met in the frost, but
We fell in love down at pier
You were sunbathing, I was around
Now I go to beaches with my girlfriend
Hey, you've got an unnerving face
And twitching eyes like Norman Bates
You got a cigarette, eye on a mirror
Farm boy brown gas station sweeper
You took that girl, you put the saddle on her
Just thirteen, she's her daddy's apple
And she don't know you're the kidnapper, uh-huh
Hey, your Daddy's Whiskey Sam
He's got bloodshot eyes like Ray Milland
Playing solitaire, your Mother fidgets
You wanna be rich but you won't dig ditches
She bitches like a brat, she got the money
People breaking their necks and she thinks it's funny
Where's your old man now? Nobody's home, uh-huh
Kidnapper
Hey, they call you Skinny Jim
And nobody knows the boat you're in
They dipped your tail when you were back in school
Well, you're a real strange cake but your nobody's fool
So you took that girl and you put the saddle on her
Just thirteen, she's fresh out of diapers
And she don't know you're the kidnapper, uh-huh
She don't know you're the kidnapper, uh-huh

Down in Chinatown (the year of the Cock)
He sold the silver belt, put it in hock
Fistful of money, mouth full of gold
Soon to be free of all armful of holes
She was a kung fu girl, kung fu girl
Uh eow!
He got the address symbolised in Cantonese
Then asked a native, "Some assistance, please"
She took him to the secret door, he was kissing the floor
Don't know much more
She was a kung fu girl, kung fu girl
Heng lu Cindy Sue
Difo difong hacking hu
In a flash of recollection of oriental pride
She threw him to the side
Got the address, gave the door a knock
What happened next caused quite a shock
She was standing, looking out the door
He was kicked to the floor
Don't know much more
She was a kung fu girl, kung fu girl
Uh eow
Kung fu
Cindy Sue
Oh, I wanna get close to you
You're my kung fu girl
You're my kung fu girl
Oh my oriental pearl
Kung fu
Cindy Sue
Oh, I wanna get close to you
You're my kung fu girl
She knew it about Route Three
Oh, she blew it, you know she could've told me
He can't say no, he can't ask why
Go through it, highway bride
He delivers, he's a roadsider
He gets no road from a back seat driver
Away we go, yes or no?
I love you honey, gimme a beer
But just like Jerry Lee, she's tuning in on me
And I've got no defence, but it makes no difference
'Cause just like Jerry Lee, she's tuning in on me
She does it easy, like a CB
He's hard to hold on the rolling road
He knows his rig's hot, get through that roadblock
Ten miles to go, oh, radio
She knew it, now so does he
Ah, I love you honey, gimme a beer
Based on the desire for total mobility and the serious physical pursuit
of religious freedom, the auto drove mankind further than the wheel and,
in remote areas even today,
is forbidden as a device too suspect for human conveyance.
This articulate conception has only brought us all more of the same,
thoughtlessly locked into phase two gridlock, keyed up,
You gotta jump up, a-to the beat
Stand up, wo-on your feet
Toes are tippi tippi tippi tapping
And you do it even when you're yapping
Hey, you got a sweet tooth and I remember
Stand up on your feet
Toes are tippi tippi tippi tapping
Hey, you got a sweet tooth and I remember
Sitting in the kitchen eating peanut butter
Eat To The Beat
Yeah, you gotta, got you got the beat
Ah, sweeter sweeter you beat your meat
I know you do it. I know you do it
I seen you, seen you, seen you, seen you chewing
Hey, you got a sweet tooth and I remember
A sweeter treat, uh, you beat your meat
I know you do it, I know you do it
Oh, you got a sweet tooth and I remember
Standing on the corner with a piece of pizza
Eat To The Beat
Condition red!
You gotta jump up, a-to the beat
Stand up, wo-on your feet
Toes are tippi tippi tippi tapping
And you do it even when you're yapping
Oh you got a sweet tooth and I remember
I seen you, seen you, you beat your meat
I know you do it, I know you do it
Hey, you got a tummy ache and I remember
Sitting in the bathroom drinking Alka Seltzer
Eat To The Beat
Eat To The Beat
There you are, giving candy
Making confidence with an easy eye
Easy words, oh, what a dancer
Dance you right into the corner in the fire
Do the dark apostle
Do the sidewalk hustle
Do the invisible dance
In the fire, fire, fire, fire
Walk on glass with the master
There's no question he can't answer with his eyes
What a stage, oh, what a dancer
Looks like a baby with an old man's eyes
When you break the rules and you burn your bridges
And your fingers itch and they're getting wet when you look at her
Do the dark apostle
Do the sidewalk hustle
Do the invisible dance
In the fire, fire, fire, fire
Walk on glass, walk on fire
Walk on glass, walk on fire
Walk on glass, walk on fire
Oooo baby, I hear how you spend night time
Wrapped like candy in a blue, blue neon glow
Fade away and radiate
Oooo baby, watchful lines
Vibrate soft in brainwave time
Silver pictures move so slow
Golden tubes faintly glow
Electric faces seem to merge
Hidden voices mock your words
Fade away and radiate
The beams become my dream
My dream is on the screen
Dusty frames that still arrive
Die in 1955
Fade away and radiate
The beams become my dream
My dream is on the screen
Die young, stay pretty
Die young, stay pretty
Deteriorate in your own time
Tell 'em you're dead and wither away
Are you living alone or with your family?
A dried up twig on your family tree?
Are you waiting for the reaper to arrive?
Or just to die by the hand of love?
Love for youth, love for youth
So, die young and stay pretty
Leave only the best behind
Slipping sensibilities
Tragedy in your own dream
Oh, you sit all alone in your rocking chair
Transistor pressed against an ear
Were you waiting at the bus stop all your life?
Or just to die by the hand of love?
Love for youth, love for youth
So live fast 'cause it won't last
Die young, stay pretty
Die young, stay pretty
Dearly near senility (dearly near senility)
Was it good or maybe you won't tell?
Die young, stay pretty
(All the way down do it
Another way down
Why, yeah. What do you know, huh?)
I seen you skip
That cautious lip
Now tell me this
Through that cautious lip
You can be bit
As I make you it
I seen you skip
That cautious lip
A chance you'll fit
That cautious lip
It's just these things
Not really gifts
It's just these things
Not really gifts
I seen you skip
That cautious lip
I seen you skip
That cautious lip
But never miss
My bouncing hips
A girl so sweet
A love so strong
I seen you skip
I see you tip
You can be bit
As I make you it
I seen you skip
That cautious lip
Ah, I seen you skip
That cautious lip
Ah, cautious lip
Cautious lip
You can be bit
I'll make you it
I seen you skip
Cautious lip
Change your fit
Skip of the lip
Oh, oh, not really get
Skip lip
What's going on?
Uh-huh make me tonight
Tonight
Make it right
Uh-huh make me tonight
Tonight

Oh, uh-huh make it magnificent
Tonight
Right
Ah, oh your hair is beautiful
Ah, tonight
Atomic
Tonight make it magnificent
Tonight
Make me tonight
Your hair is beautiful
Oh, tonight
Atomic
Oh Atomic
Oh Atomic
Oh Atomic
No I don't believe in luck
No I don't believe in circumstance no more
Accidents never happen in a perfect world
So I won't believe in luck
I saw you walking in the dark
So I slipped behind your footsteps for a while
Caught you turning round the block
Fancy meeting in a smaller world, after all
Accidents never happen, could have planned it all
Precognition in my ears
Accidents never happen in a perfect world
Complications disappear
Now you love me
I, yeah, I can tell
I never lied, I never cried
And you, you knew so well
Like the Magi on the hill
I can divinate your presence from afar
And I'll follow you until
I can bring you to a perfect world
Accidents never happen, could have planned it all
Precognition in my ears
Accidents never happen in a perfect world
Complications disappear
Accidents never happen in a perfect world
Accidents never happen
Accidents never happen in a perfect world

Although I'm young I got a job to do
Hid the microfilm in the lining of my shoe
Call it a business trip
Got to hide inside my trench coat and be clever
I got my papers and a cyanide pill
My Polaroid's a taser in disguise
There's a base in the hills
And the wheat fields looks like Kansas in November
Astrovia, sweet comrade, your nation is your gun
Your love reads like the broken code you sent me
One last contact in red square, unless I have to run
And the long arms of the KGB detect me
Can't trust a soul, secret messenger
Just the rules that lie like circuits in your brain
And a cool .45. The wind is ice and foreign air tastes strange
I.C.B.M. Bang! Bang! You're dead!
No one left to worry
Kiss me quick, now I have to hurry
Our last contact in red square, unless I have to run
And the long arms of the CIA detect me
Be my TV guide
In between the stations
Be my satellite
Secret information
Stairway
Going one way to the subway
Waiting for the train
Take it to the runway
Journal in the Square
Fingers in the hairdo
England in the air
Beatle in the bathroom
No one understands you
Upperhands you lonely valentine
Bell and book and candle
Turning in the light
Singing to the doorway
Standing on the side
Listen to the subway
Highway going
One way or another
Let's get in the car
Afterglow in a distant row
The door is open and the lights are cold
The children come in here and they dare the ghost
Like a fire burning in a stone
Silent light in the theatre's sky
Phantom cigarette and a silent cry
The door swings open and it's cold outside
Run and hide, run and hide
Ah, ah
They can still see him singing on the corner singing songs
That never fade away, fade into the kids that come along
Memory in a silent seat
Melody on a long retreat
Like an angel on a balcony
Like an angel on a balcony
In a packed-in-leather life
I was foolish, you were right
All night rookies pass the time
Looking for somewhere to go
Shiny boots are up their thighs
[Chorus]
Mother in the night
Calling you, calling you
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you now?
Mother's left the building
We're the missing children
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you tonight?
Mother, may I stay all night?
Lift your curfew like the light
Collars turned against the cold
I'm looking for someone to hold
In your packed-in-leather night
[Chorus]
Mother in the night
Calling you, calling you
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you now?
Mother's left the building
We're the missing children
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you?
Now that I can't remember
I need you more than ever
Why can't we be together always?
Mother in the night
Mother in the night
Mother's left the building
We're the missing children
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you now?
Mother in the night
Calling you, calling you
Mother in the night
I'm hot as a fire, burning bright, feel as empty as air
Sa yui yui
There is no sense of balance
In the howling wind that calls to me
I can feel it everywhere but it's invisible to me
Distractions and spirit find me floating in a magnetic sea
Sa yui yui
The nights are phosphorescent
And the days are beautiful and bright
Until whispering mist comes falling down on me
Oh, there's fire burning
Looking for the magic
In the nighttime all this
Brings the magic back to me
I'm looking for the magic in the places I remember it to be
Sa yui yui yui
It's in the nighttime alleys
Winding through my deepest memory
And just one simple thought brings the magic back to me
Oh, there's fire burning
Looking for the magic
In the night time all this
Brings the magic back to me
I'm looking for the magic in the places I remember it to be
And just one simple thought brings the magic back to me
Same old song and dance, I gave you another chance.
Drama every night. I don't wanna fight .
Same old story again: you wanna be my friend . It's really gotta end.
Same old story ! CHORUS
You told me you were done with her and I believed every word...
and now I wonder what I heard... ooooh !
You told me you were done with her and I believed every word...
and now I wonder what I heard... ooooh !
The drama won't stop, he says he called the cops ...
police don't care 'cause he's crazy.
You keep calling me. It's a total bore, I've heard it all before, cat got out, he came running back for more.
(Chorus) x1
I told you I'd be cool , now I feel like a fool.
I got sucked into your crazy, but it won't phase me.
It's a total bore, I've heard it all before, the cat got out,
she came running back for more.
(Chorus) x 2
The order came directly from the CIA
To start the following investigation
Find out what's the hidden power lying in the grooves
That drives em crazy all across the nation
They found the jam was moving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
It makes the people keep grooving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
The agent, who assigned Jim to investigate
When he came home he found to his amazement
He saw his own children live on Colt 45
And they were rocking popping in the basement
They found the jam was moving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
It makes the people keep grooving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
They found the jam was moving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
It makes the people keep grooving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
When the order came from the CIA
You better look out, and find out what's the hidden power lying in the grooves
They're going crazy crazy crazy crazy all across the nation
Agent said, "Found the jam was moving
Go ahead now, go ahead now
It makes the people keep grooving
Go ahead now"
The jam was moving
She's an underground girl in an underground world
She never comes around, she stays underground
After was a trip, she rides her lip
She's the coolest girl around, she's the girl from underground
She's the girl that's always right, she's the one who gets uptight
Ask her how she's been, she'll give you some skin
Hey everybody now from all over town
Hey everybody's gonna go underground
For everybody wants to be inside
And nobody knows she's gonna take you for a ride
She's the coolest girl around, she's the girl from underground
For I don't ant to brag, but I'm no dag
Ask her where she's from, she always playing dumb
Well hey now everybody don't fall down
Well hey everybody gotta go underground
Well hey everybody don't want to be inside
Nobody thinks she's gonna take you for a ride
She's the coolest girl around, she's the girl from underground
You can beat her with a whip, she just thinks it's hip
You can see her at night, never in the light
Well hey everybody gonna fall down
Well hey everybody gonna go underground
Well hey everybody wants to be inside
And nobody knows she's gonna take them for a ride
Twenty five tons of hardened steel rolls on no ordinary wheel
Inside the armoured car ride two big armed guards
In a bullet-proof vest, shatterproof glass, overdrive, we're gonna pass
Twenty five tons of hardened steel rolls on no ordinary wheel
The hardest part of the armoured guard
Big man of steel behind the steering wheel
Nitro and acetylene open la machine
No short heist, no overnight, big money take you to Brazil
Bullet-proof vest, shatterproof glass, overdrive, we're gonna pass
Time bomb, greasy mob, count down, hurry up, come on
The hardest part of the armoured guard
Big man of steel behind the steering wheel
In a wire mesh cage with a twelve gauge. Radio - we're coming fast
Ooh, I need to feel some hardened steel, deliver the big money deal
Of the armoured guard here's what I heard
I'll tell you that he will no matter what you feel
The hardest part of the armoured guard
Big man of steel behind the steering wheel
I know a girl from a lonely street
Cold as ice cream but still as sweet
Dry your eyes Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide Sunday girl
Hurry up, hurry up and wait
stay away all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me
She can't catch up with the working crowd
The weekend mood and she's feeling proud
Live in dreams Sunday girl
Baby, I would like to go out tonight
If I go with you my folks'll get uptight
Stay at home Sunday girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide Sunday girl
When I saw you again in the summertime
If your love was as sweet as mine
I could be Sunday's girl
Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I stay away all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your loving means to me
All I want is the best for our lives my dear,
And you know my wishes are sincere.
What's to say for the days I cannot bare.
A Sunday smile you wore it for a while.
A Sunday mile we paused and sang.
A Sunday smile you wore it for a while.
A Sunday mile we paused and sang.
A Sunday smile and we felt true. (and)
We burnt to the ground
Left a view to admire
With buildings inside church of white.
We burnt to the ground left a grave to admire.
And as we reach for the sky, reach the church of white.
A Sunday smile you wore it for a while.
A Sunday mile we paused and sang.
A Sunday smile you wore it for a while.
A Sunday mile we paused and sang.
Hey, I don't feel so good lately
I wake up with the thought of you penetrating my head
Instead I wanna fill my bed with thoughts of us
Joined at the heart like we were at the start
You left me talking to myself, underneath the weather
No good-bye kiss or long love letter
Don't orchestrate my life
Just be-bop
Must I take pills for stability?
With you I can hardly speak
Must I confess to the stress that I feel?
(Yes, you must)
You take me right to the edge
You take me right to the edge
I need some more of your time
I'm not trying to be funny
If you think, I'm a joke you got another thing coming
When your orders came by phone, today, I'm not alone
I heard you, but what did you say?
So now you're talking to yourself
Do ya like it?
Well, do you like it any better?
Don't orchestrate my life
Just be-bop
If you are so sophisticated
Why am I still denigrated when I should be venerated?
I'm sick and tired of repudiation where upon
Your orchestration leads to endless complication
And causes me great consternation
Cha, cha, cha
You love to dance but you maintain, you're not romantic
Bla, bla, bla
You love to talk but I'm still out here stranded
La, la, la
You love to sing but don't you know a different key?
Ha, ha, ha
If I'm your last laugh, are you sure the joke's on me?
You don't have to "Hubby love" me
Don't try to chubby, shove me
You don't have to tell me, I'm your ultimate honey
Medicinal value, na-na-natural cure, don't analyze the 98% pure
Value for value with no medicinal taste
He should had a license for that thing below his waist
Don't ya know the leash laws?
Sittin' on a seesaw, hanging out with bull dogs and assorted pit frogs
Put him down if ya don't know where he's been
Pick him up if he's looking too thin
Don't inhale or derail or curtail
My train of thoughts overwrought, can't be bought
You got me talkin' to myself
Sweating in my sweater, underneath the weather
No good-bye kiss or long love letter
Close your eyes and you will see
Micro-flashing neon lights
Open your eyes and you will see
It still looks like the same thing
Lie and wait for sleep and listen
To your heart beat too fast for sleep
Close your eyes and you will see
The sound asleep
I want to go, I want to go
I want to go down to go to sleep
Your frame of reference
Is my swimming pool
My, my swimming pool
Still looks like the China sea
Pool to sea and finally
The sound asleep
Feel the muscles in your face
Twitch, relax, remembering
Everything that went down and will go down
I want to go down to sleep
Insomnia, no sleep disease
Petties parking, feed me please
Lie and wait for sleep and listen
Following my lust for wander everywhere I've ever been
I can't escape the sound of it, the sound of my screaming skin
My skin cries, my blood sighs
I still owe some dread on this hide
Following my trust in wonder I watch the circus begin
I can't ignore the scent of it, the scent of my screaming skin
My skin cries, my blood sighs
I still owe some dread on this hide
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
I'm a multicellular individual, you're way out of proportion
We've got the hemodynamic connection
Don't call me germ
Allowing for my strength to muster, my losses begin to win
Tropical winds start to bluster, raising the fur on my skin
My skin cries, my spirits fly
But I still owe some dread on this hide
Ooh, yeah
I'm a multicellular individual, you're way out of proportion
We've got the hemodynamic connection
And don't call me germ
Swallowing my pride no longer, I take the forbidden sun
If I have been sculpted by hunger, I'm not the only one
My skin cries, my blood sighs
I still owe some dread on this hide of mine
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
I'm a multicellular individual, you're way out of proportion
Ah ha, we've got the hemodynamic connection
Don't call me germ!
My skin cries, my spirit flies
But I still owe some dread on this hide
My skin cries, my blood sighs
And I still owe some dread on this hide of mine
My spirit flies, my blood sighs
And I still owe some dread on this hide of mine
My skin cries, my spirit flies
Hey, psst psst, here she comes now
Oh, you know her
Would you look at that hair?
Yeah, you know her
Check out those shoes
She looks like she stepped out of
The middle of somebody's blues
She looks like the Sunday comics
She thinks she's Brenda Starr
Her nose job is real atomic
All she needs is an old knife scar
Ehhh, she's so dull, come on, rip her to shreds
She's so dull, come on, rip her to shreds
Oh, you know her
Miss Groupie Supreme
Yeah, you know her
Vera Vogue on Parade
Red eye shadow
Green mascara
(Yuck!)
She's too much
She looks like she don't know better
A case of partial extreme
Dressed in a Robert Hall sweater
Acting like a soap opera queen
Ehhh, she's so dull, come on, rip her to shreds
She's so dull, come on, rip her to shreds
She got the nerve to tell me she's not on it
But her expression is too serene
Yeah, she looks like she washes with Comet
Always looking to create a scene
Ehhh, she's so dull, come on rip her to shreds
She's so dull, come on rip her to shreds
She's so dull, rip her to shreds
Oh, you know her
Miss Groupie Supreme
Yeah, you know her
Vera Vogue on Parade
Yeah, you know her
With the fish eating grin
She's so dull
Yeah, she got the nerve to tell me
Huh, she's so dull
Yeah, there she goes now
She makin' out with King Kong
She take her boat to Hong Kong
Well, bye bye sugar
I used to get sick with solitude
I was always better in the multitude
But now I like it up here all alone in my ivory tower
Hi ho at the end of my rope
I watch it all through a telescope
I think, I'd have a better chance to see the Pope
I get so bored with his shtick and his mini minute dick
And all his high and mighty shit, I'm a witch
Well, well, well a wish wanna throw it in a ditch
I'm concentratin' on the big laugh
You just acting like that damn old riff raff
Shakedown baby
I don't wanna have to see
What you got hidin' in your body cavity?
Shakedown baby
I don't wanna have to see
What you got hidin' in your body cavity?
Shakedown baby
Shakedown baby
Shakedown baby
I don't wanna have to see
What you got hidin' in your body cavity?
I'm so sick of your Jersey rap
Your slab rat white as a tic-tac
Why don't you take a dirt nap
You make me laugh and I know who I'm laughin' at
Big Jersey hoo-haa
Like your style, like your freedom of speech
Like your dirty thoughts, like your cream of wheat
Tuesday is out
Never may be great, level down and read 'em
From the garden state, this is a Jersey plate
Saturday in pretty drivin' in the city
Your boom is a distortion
Your act is a contortion
The perfume and pretension
Your hair in invention
Ha, ha, ha the hive is hummin'
I thought, I heard it all
But there's still more comin'
Put it in, put it in, why don't you put it in?
Put it in, put it in, why don't you put it in?
Put it in, put it in, why don't you put it in?
Put it in, put it in, why don't you put it in?
Put it in, put it in, why don't you put it in?
Put it in, put it in
Shakedown baby
I don't wanna have to see
What you got hidin' in your body cavity?
Shakedown baby
I don't wanna have to see
What you got hidin' in your body cavity?
Shakedown baby
Shakedown baby
Shakedown baby
I don't wanna have to see
What you got hidin' in your body cavity?
You said your name was what
What kind of a name is that?
Shooting past me on the turnpike
Should have told you to take a hike
But there was somethin'
I don't know what
That I guess I kind of like, that nasty attitude
Mediterranean lastitude
I guess you did give me a rush
Yeah, you gave me a thrill
Felt so hot and flushed
I even had to take a pill
And your pattern yeah, your method yeah
The way you deliver long and slow
The way you get your percussion goin'
Goin' strong and it's my turn to be blowin'
Yeah, singin' my song
You think you know me
Think again
Who's your friend?
Who put this freak flag in the mail?
Why you sending me this pig tail?
You back in jail
I got your post card sayin'
How it is in that pen your in
Signed don't forget me, lot's of love from adrenaline
Give it a rest, give it a rest
You got one dimension pure pretension
Cross the river start to shiver
Over to the big smoke, and it's no joke
I told you, one more word from you
About Jersey and you're dead
Shakedown baby
And I don't wanna have to see
What you got hidin' in your body cavity?
Shakedown baby
Shakedown baby
Shakedown baby
I don't wanna have to see
What you got hidin' in your body cavity?
Shakedown baby
I don't wanna have to see
What you got hidin' in your body cavity?
Shakedown baby
Let me lick that, uh, uh
Can I kiss that? No
Let me kiss that
Let me lick that, come on
Let me lick that
Uh, huh, it might be too sweet
One way or another I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha
One way or another I'm gonna win ya
I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha
One way or another I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meet ya, meet ya, meet ya, meet ya
One day, maybe next week, I'm gonna meet ya

I will drive past your house
And if the lights are all out
I'll see who's around
One way or another I'm gonna find ya
I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha
One way or another I'm gonna win ya
I'll getcha, I'll getcha
One way or another I'm gonna see ya
I'm gonna meet ya, meet ya, meet ya, meet ya
One day, maybe next week, I'm gonna meet ya
I'll meet ya, yeah
And if the lights are all out
I'll follow your bus downtown
See who's hangin' around
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip
A slip of the hip or another, I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna trick ya, I'll trick ya
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna trick ya, trick ya, trick ya, trick ya
One way or another I'm gonna lose ya
I'm gonna give you the slip
I'll walk down the mall, stand over by the wall
Where I can see it all, find out who you call
Lead you to the supermarket
Check out some specials and rat food, get lost in the crowd
One way or another I'm gonna getcha
I'll getcha, I'll getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha
(Where I can see it all, find out who you call)
One way or another I'm gonna getcha

(Where I can see it all, find out who you call)
One way or another I'm gonna getcha
Eyes that tell me "Baby, you don't need no invitation"
Let me smoke another cigarette before I make a move
I can see me in the morning; losing my direction
Deep inside my overcoat, looking for the door
I don't wanna stay with you. I just wanna play with you
One sweet abbreviation sleeping like the dead
You think you're pretty, well, so do I. You came to me but, passion eyes
Got no imagination to clutter up my head
Eyes that mirror innocence and cannot sense the changes
Lets have another drink, dear, before we get deranged
I can see me in the morning; avoiding your detection
Slowly down the staircase, looking for the door
All is fair in love and war but I don't want your love no more
One sweet abbreviation sleeping like the dead
You're fragile and you're very green, conditioned by a milk machine
Got no imagination. Got no imagination. No
Take a walk, kid
Eyes that tell me "Baby, you don't need no invitation"
Let me smoke another cigarette before I make a move
I can see me in the morning; losing my direction
Poet's problem, patron's sin
Puts me in the place I'm in
Passion's letter, poison pen
On these two things I can depend
You will write your number, that's not all
I will not be there when you call
I think I'll do a line and then again
Dirty dealer's school of thought
An armchair for the strength you've lost
The TV set's been on all night
You were wrong and I was right
You will write your number on the wall
I will not be there when you call
I wanna be a platinum blonde
Just like all the sexy stars
Marilyn and Jeane, Jayne, Mae and Marlene
Yeah they, they really had fun
In a luminous day-glo shade
Walk into a bar and I'll have it made
'Cause if that's all it takes; a double processed blonde
I wanna be a platinum blonde
I wanna be a platinum blonde
Be a platinum blonde
Yeah I even tried wearing a wig for a while
It was the right colour, but not the right style
Gonna get some peroxide at the beauty supply
See ya later
I wanna be a platinum blonde
Just like all the sexy stars
Marilyn and Jeane, Jayne, Mae and Marlene
Yeah they, they really had fun
Now if you need me on Sunday and you look twice and see
That platinum blonde is gonna be me
In a double processed luminous day-glo shade
When I get this colour I'll have it made in the shade
Oh, I hope I'm OK
I wanna be a platinum blonde
I wanna be a platinum blonde
Honey, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta
I gotta be a platinum blonde
I gotta be a platinum blonde
I gotta be a platinum blonde
How many times have you heard? How many times did you say?
"I think I'm going crazy, you're driving me out of my mind"
We know it's just an expression, a silly little phrase
Not the doorbell, not a bird call, koo koo
How do you drive someone crazy? To where? In what kind of car?
Maybe we find a road map, I'm sure it's not very far
We know it's not so serious, we take it all in fun
Answer the ding dong, do you play ping pong? Could you?
Trying to get your attention, did someone say earth's calling you?
Don't say it, don't ever mention, you're hearing more voices than two
Roasted or raw delicious, freeze dried or salted divine
Was that a, are you a, are you?
Storms have rearranged the sand millions of years up till now
Crusaders on a never ending search die for a never ending thirst
What a fine performances, oasis, well worth the standing ovation
O Don't ya know
Don't wanna see you any more
Put up or shut up
You spell, you read
D O O R
You got a big mouth and I'm happy to see
Your foot is firmly entrenched where a molar should be
If you talk much louder you could get an award
From the federal communications board
Don't be cruel
Be a thing-sweet thing as a rule
Don't be sad
I left you in the street, you're pre-fab
I had to get away
Don't go away sad
Don't go pre-fab
Don't go be bad
Don't go away mad
Just go away (go away)
O Don't ya know
Don't wanna see you here no more
Pack it and move it
You spell, you read O U T out
Don't be bad
A mad hatter's beret
Sometimes you look like you just mad an escape
Don't be mad
Or lose your medicaid cool
Of course cool rhymes with fool
Don't go be bad
Cause you been had
Don't go be sad
Don't go away mad
Just go away (go away)
O Don't ya know
Don't wanna see ya curse and pout
Pack it and move it
Ya spell, ya read O U T out
You got a big mouth and I'm happy to see
Your foot is firmly entrenched where a molar should be
Don't be mad or lose your medicaid cool
Of course cool rhymes with fool
Don't go pre-fab
Cause you been had
Don't go be sad
Don't go away mad
Just go away (go away)
Don't go pre-fab
Cause you been had
Don't go be sad
Don't go away mad
Just go away (go away)
My name is Little Caesar
Friends call me LC
My Daddy's named the same
And passed it on to me
I'm the kinda guy who by and by
Who wants to be your friend
I'll make you a happy ending
I loop the loo
I do it good
I've been called alotta names
Some of them obscene
But you think I'm funny
And wonder about me
I don't worry anymore
Get uptight or fear
Back in the days of funny funny
They called me queer
They used to call me
They called me rudely
I'm a love 'em and leave 'em kinda fella
A good time gentlemen
Perform my magic for ya
Then I'll make my plan
When I'm gone you'll feel so low
Obsession outta hand
You'll find I'll linger in your mind
You can't forgive me
You won't forget me
You can't live without me
Can't live without me
You'll find there's not enough
And that you love too much
Can't live with me
You can't live with me
Can't live without me
Just call me Caesar
You can't forgive me
You won't forget me
In Babylon
On the boulevard of broken dreams
My will power at the lowest ebb
Oh what can I do?
Oh buccaneer
Can ya help me put my truck in gear?
Can ya take me far away from here?
Save my soul from sin?
You wanna get away you've had it man
Nothing's going right
So come sit on the sands of the island
Island of Lost Souls
No luxuries, no no amenities
Too dull, your senses
Oh oh only primitive
"Hey hey really get away," is what he said
Where did he go?
I'm tired of waiting here for him
Where can he be?
He's not with me
Where did he go?
What will I do alone?
Why did he run, run away from me?
The sky is blue the sea is warm and clear
And golden sands are calling out to you inviting
Make a new man outa you
You can come for a while come with a friend
Forget about work start all over again
Let the real you through, here's what we do
Where did he go?
I'm tired of waiting here for him
Where can he be?
He's not with me
Where did he go?
What will I do alone?
Why did he run, run away from me?
No luxuries, no no amenities
Too dull, your senses
Oh oh only primitive
Hey hey really get away
Island of Lost Souls
I saw you taping thunder from your balcony
Saving the sounds
Don't trust your memory
I see you catch the lightning
Hold it up so you can see
Through the open windows
Looking down at me
Let's wake the roosters
Nighttime's gonna go
We'll walk and talk years of
Before the light begins to show
Let's wake the roosters
Nice to know you Joe
Let's wake the roosters
Hola Joe
Catch the sunrise in a glass
If you turn your back you'll miss it
Coming up real fast
Set your trap for nighttime
You lie down in the dark
Listen to the thunder
Listen to my heart
Let's wake the roosters
Nighttime's gonna go
We'll walk and talk yeaars of
Before the light begins to show
Let's wake the roosters
Nice to know you Joe
Let's wake the roosters
Hey-ho ola Joe
Caught you in the rain
It took you by surprise
I'll take you home and dance with you
Until your clothes are dry
Place your finger on my pulse
I'll keep the sign of you
Keep it nice and close
And when I feel the Breath of spring
On my face
I know the silent sound of you
Won't be erased
Let's wake the rooserts
Nighttime's gonna go
We'll walk and talk years of
Before the light begins to show
Let's wake the roosters
Nice to know you Joe
Let's wake the roosters
You're gonna say you miss me
You're gonna say you'll kiss me
You're gonna say you love me
And I'm gonna love you too
I don't care what you told me
You're gonna say you'll hold me
You're gonna say you love me
And I'm gonna love you too
After all, another fella took ya
But I still can't overlook ya
I'm gonna do my best to hook ya
After all is said and done
You're gonna tell me sweet things
You're gonna make my heart sing
And I'm gonna hear bells ring
Cause I'm gonna love you too
You're gonna say you kiss me
You're gonna say you'll miss me
You're gonna say you love me
Cause I'm gonna love you too
I'm gonna love you too
I'm gonna love you too
You got ants in your pants, I don't understand, I don't trust the flick of your eyes
You're a viper and love's a fever
You said something profane and went for a vein but in spite of your delicate touch
I should have known as much. I'm a bleeder
I didn't have the nerve to say no
I didn't have the nerve to say no
You caught me surprised and my will resigned. Torture the minds of them all
You're a brain drain, you'd better beat it
I'm following lines, the blind leads the blind, so hang me or grant me a stay
You better cut me loose or hand me a noose
I didn't have the nerve to say no
I didn't have the nerve to say no
There's no end to the problem
Of a bad situation. Complication
No, no, no, no, ah
There's no end to the problem
And frustration. I need a vacation
No, no, no, no, ah
And I know I couldn't
I, I will be king
And you, you will be king
And nothing will drive them away
We can beat them
Just for one day, we can be heroes
Just for one day
And you, you can be me
And I, I do all the time
'Cause we?re lovers and that is a fact
Yes, we are and that is that
Well nothing can keep us together
We can steal time
Just for one day, we could be heroes
Forever and ever, what do you say?
I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins swim
And nothing, nothing can keep us together
We can beat them
Forever and ever oh, we can be heroes
Just for one day
I, I will be queen
And you, you will be king
Though nothing will drive 'em away
We can be heroes just for one day
We can be us, just for one day
I, I remember, standing, by the wall
The guns, shone above our heads
And we kissed I saw nothing to fault
And the shade was on the other side
Oh, we can beat them
Forever and ever, we can be heroes
Just for one day, we can be heroes
I'm like a happy dog who's been alone too long
I wanna wag for you baby
Raise a flag of wag
Shake and shag
I wanna wag for you baby
Come on now throw me some bone
I'm ripping up your song
I wanna be your dog
Skinny or fat, I'm gonna go with that and chase your pussycat
Be my happy dog, my leaping frog and jump all over me
'Cuz my little mutt's got that hairy butt
He's gonna wag it for me baby
Hey come over here Mr. Licks
I like when you pick up sticks
When you throw me a fit
And no matter what you tell the tale of a pup 'cuz you're my kind of mutt
I disagree
I wanna itch you like a flea
Gonna teach my old dog to do some new tricks
Mmm, hmm
Don't be begging me just take a seat on my lap of luxury
'Cause I'm a happy dog who's been alone too long
I wanna wag for you baby
Come on now throw me some bone
I'm ripping up your song
I wanna be your dog
Skinny or fat, I wanna go with that and chase your pussycat
I wanna wag for you baby
I wanna wag for you
I wanna wag for you baby
Satellites are falling down tonight
I see you far away
I’m floating into this inescapable bliss
Band and light, I know the symptoms of
I've got myself to blame
I’m needing you, I just don’t care anymore.
Good boys never win
Good boys always follow
Good boys never win
They all fall away and you remain
Fear of flight
I’m so afraid of heights
Why are you asking why
I’m walking when my feet are never touching the ground
Good boys never win
Good boys always fellow
Good boys never win
They all fall away and you remain
Eyes wide the middle of the night
Got more money than a body got right
Riding on the "L" till the sun comes up again
You got me on your face
A big disgrace
Shakin’ your feathers all over the place
You woke face down on St. Mark’s Avenue
What a pity for you
What a pity for you
Good boys
Good boys never win
Good boys always follow
Good boys never win
They all fall away and you remain
Eyes wide the middle of the night
Got more money than a body got right
Riding on the "L" till the sun comes up again
You got me on your face
A big disgrace
Shakin’ your feathers all over the place
You woke up face down on St. Mark’s Avenue
What a pity for you
What a pity for you
What a pity for you
Good boys
What a pity for you
As sure as anything
As sure as I can be
That 99%, pure as Ivory
I caught the scent, followed the smell of it
Couldn't Ignore
Hey, why did you pick on me?
What's that pretty flower I see?
Tall and wild it waves at me
Mother says it's just a weed
Golden Rod, Golden Rod
Growing Wild, not in the city
Gave me an allergy
And my reaction's, what's gonna happen?
It gets no help from me
I can't explain it
Maybe I shouldn't try to
That old genetic code
Had a hold on me
We go inside it, ran head long into it
And mothers' warning, useless to me
What's that pretty flower I see?
Tall and wild it waves at me
Mother says it's just a weed
Golden Rod, Golden Rod
Another blonde, not from the city
Gave me an allergy
And you can see me drinking the poison
Taking it happily
What's that pretty flower I see?
Tall and wild it waves at me
Mother says it's just a weed
Golden Rod, Golden Rod
Another blonde, not from the city
Gave me an allergy
And my reaction's
What's gonna happen?
It gets not help from me
You're running wild, not in the city
Gave me an alleregy
And my reaction's
What's gonna happen?
It gets no help from
Well you will see me
Drinking the poison, taking it happily
You're running wild
You're running wild
Another blonde not from the city
Drinking the poison
Taking it happily
Not from the city
Golden Rod
Golden Rod
Golden Rod
If I could right the wrongs
The past iust wouldn't be
How could I fall in love at zero gravity?
And if I did make you love me
Will you make me belong?
And I'm waiting for the time
Like the calm before the storm
Oh no
You're not free to fall
Free to fall
Oh no
You're not
Not free to fall
Oh no
Oh no
This must be someone else
'Cause the part iust isn't me
Can this be happening
'Cause it sounds like lines to me
First you're sailing
Then yov're swimming
Then you're sinking in the sea of love
Still you sparkle and you sizzle
'Cause a live wire always does
Oh no
You're not free to fall
Free to fall
Within the atmosphere so rare
So rare
So rare
I can see my liquid love light fading
Fading
Draining
It's raining
Raining
And if I did make you love me
What did I do wrong?
And I'm waiting
Waiting
Like the calm before the storm
Oh no
You're not free to fall
I'm like a happy dog who's been alone too long
I wanna wag for you baby
Raise a flag of wag
Shake and shag
I wanna wag for you baby
Come on now throw me some bone
I'm ripping up your song

I wanna wag for you baby
Dull afternoon, pale evening sun, I'm as tense
As a high noon run, I'm gonna cross that bridge
When I come to it, getting over, stepping up
I'm at the end of a stretch, wearing high heels that fit
Crossing Diamond Bridge
The street was straight, straight and narrow
The bridge was not, I'm gonna burst my seams
Know what temptation means
Days were old and nights got hot
Feel the difference, it feels fine
It fills my mind field with friendly fire
I'm not throwing my pearls to swine
I'm crossing Diamond Bridge
I don't wanna go there but I can't stay here
Just a shiny baby in the bright light's glare
If I cross that line, break the ties that bind
Stepping over, wrong and right
Gonna raise the stakes, I'm staying wide awake
Crossing over, growing up
I feel the difference and it feels fine
It fills my mind field with friendly fire
And melts the ice off my desire
Oh Denis doo-be-do
I'm in love with you, Denis doo-be-do
I'm in love with you, Denis doo-be-do
I'm in love with you
Denis Denis, oh with your eyes so blue
Denis Denis, I've got a crush on you
Denis Denis, I'm so in love with you
Oh when we walk it always feels so nice
And when we talk it seems like paradise
Denis Denis I'm so in love with you
You're my king and I'm in heaven every time I look at you
When you smile it's like a dream
And I'm so lucky 'cause I found a boy like you
Denis Denis, oh won't you hold me tight?
Denis Denis, please can we kiss all night?
Denis Denis, I'm so in love with you
Denis Denis, avec tes yeux si bleux
Denis Denis, moi j'ai flashe a nous deux
Denis Denis, un grand baiser d'eternite
Denis Denis, je suis si folle de toi
Denis Denis, oh embrasse-moi ce soir
Denis Denis, un grand baiser d'eternite
Oh Denis doo-be-do
I'm in love with you, Denis doo-be-do
I'm in love with you, Denis doo-be-do
I always had my eyes on you but you came from across the line
I had to make good time to see you but you had to pay the fine
All the boys on my side knew that you were the shark
If you were found on the borderline you'd be shot in the dark
Don't wear those clothes again, they don't make it in this crowd
Don't go out D.T.K., you'll wear your best suit in the ground
We're meeting in a neutral zone: the last car on the train
The love you brought shaking up my bones and crawling through our veins
We always met at the edge of a blade and we left at the end of the fight
Of all the girls you've played and you laid why did this one have to be white?
They're gonna get ya at 12 o'clock high, got their sights set low on you
You better believe me, I wouldn't lie. We better quit before you're through
They're gonna get ya at 12 o'clock high, got their sights set low on you
Looking for your face where it could never be
I'm following a trail that only I can see
Raising waves of heat
I press on in tiny bursts of speed
Caught in my pursuit, I play the fetishist admission
The longing that I feel drives me mad in no direction
Nailed by something cute
I tear it out with micro surgical precision
Incender
Put some gas on the ember
Lightning goes to ground
Incender
Crazy fool on a bender
Striking the ground
Burning me down
Double take
Left with an aftertaste
I look again
Was it your face?
Double take
I'm in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?
Another flash of face
Igniting and familiar pulls me by the eye to the perimeter
Riveting my gaze
Is that your face in the crowd?
Incender
Drop some gas on the ember
I felt a slap in the face
Incender
Crazy fool on a bender
Striking the ground
Burning me down
Double take
Left with an aftertaste
I look again
Was it your face?
I fell awake
I'm in an altered state
I look again
Was it really you?
Double take
Left with an aftertaste
I look again
Was it your face?
Double take
I'm in an altered state
I look again
Not of this world entirely
Heaven sent, you are my deity
Lived through all the romance sadly meant for me
All I need is a sign
Make your presence known to mine
Come to me, I will be divine
I wear the spell you put on me
Like a charm no one else can see
Keeps away the wicked badly meant for me
All I need is a sign
Make your presence known to mine
Come to me and I will be divine
And when I thought my fire finally died
I felt your spell tight as ever, tied
No one is above the rituals of love
Temptation calls and the stars fall from the blue
There is no limitation except for me and you
Lived through all the romance
Sadly meant for me
All I need is a sign
Make your presence known to mine
Come to me and I will be divine
All I need is a sign
Make your presence known to mine
Come to me and I will be divine
All I need is a sign
Make your presence known to mine
Passing the match test? That's some kind of tease
'Cause everything rests on the moment
The little flame sees
Let's go boom boom in the zoom zoom room
If you get past that brief little flash
Take down my number with your pencil mustache
Play truth or dare in the light of a strike anywhere
Don't follow the fallen already lying down there
Let's go boom boom in the zoom zoom room
Boom boom in the zoom zoom room
I'll be the cause you can champion
Your scarlet companion and won't it be fine?
Keeping my head above water
I'm no farmer's daughter, no clinging vine
When we trip the light fantastic, a feeling so rare
It will follow your features aligned by the glare
Let's go boom boom in the zoom zoom room
Let's go boom boom in the zoom zoom room
I'll be the cause you can champion
Your scarlet companion and won't it be fun?
I'll keep my head above water
I'm no farmer's daughter, no clinging vine
Passing the match test and no one says
Thank you 'cause they're gone
Just as fast as a breeze
Boom boom in the zoom zoom room
Let's go boom
Boom boom in the zoom zoom room
It's not the way that I want, it's just the way it is
Beyond the limit, beyond the limit
The landlord says he's gonna renovate the walls
Be prepared for a little noise but then the ceiling falls
So ya try to sleep with the pillow on your head
Toss, turn, start to burn, top floor lands in bed
You watch TV but there's nothing on the screen
Spotlight on the visual, nothing on the beam
Call the handy man to come fix your machine
He tells ya now your kitchen works but all your toast is green
That's the way it is, that's the way it really, really is
Beyond the limit, beyond the limit out there
Don't look in here, yeah
Sundown finds him out of town on the overpass
His inner self glued to his point twenty-two
Dirty metal in the speed of night, lights and broken glass
My heart can destroy all I see
Moving streets all make me lonely
Come to me and be mine only
I can hide us far from sight, but you must wait and I must fight this nothingness
Walls, I see my little room
I hear my parent's friends
I hope that my actions make amends
I would like to kill for love but I don't know how
Here I lie so high above the crowd
Busy streets all make me lonely
Come to me and be mine only
I can move us through the night, but you must wait and I must fight this emptiness
Black top burns with silent screams
Others stop my dreams
Lightning Crash! Crash! Crash!
Fear causes some to live, others die real cool
I died in the evening after school
Be mine only
Be my own
Be mine only
I saw you standing on the corner, you looked so big and fine.
I really wanted to go out with you, so when you smiled,
I laid my heart on the line
You read me my rights and then you said "Let's go" and nothing more
I thought of my nights, and how they were
They were filled with
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
We sat in the night with my hands cuffed at my side
I look at your life and your style
I wanted nothing more
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
Walking the line, you were a marksman
Told me that law, like wine, is ageless
Public defender
You had to admit
You wanted the love of a sex offender
I know you wouldn't go
You'd watch my heart burst then you'd step in
I had to know so I asked
You just had to laugh
My vision in blue, I call you from inside my cell
And in the trial, you were there
With your badge and rubber boots
I think all the time how I'm going to perpetrate love with you
I need city lights
Defence and weaponry
No way of knowing
My life expectancy
I learn resistance
Like I learn to see
A living witness
A lonely refugee I'm a war child
I'm a war baby
And that's the difference
Between you and me
I'm a war child
My occupation
Is being occupied
I stop at the corner
To be identified
Across the border
They pretend victory
I'm playing in the rubble
And dream a destiny
I'm a war child
I'm a war baby
And that's the difference
Between you and me
I'm a war child
You weren't discovered by Khmer Rouge
We hear of "the troubles" on the nightly news
PLO lovers courting after the curfew
La la la la, la la
La la la la, la la, la la
La la la la, la la
La la la la, la la, la la la, la la la
Was that an invitation?
Can you explain? I'm so impatient
Hey rise to the occasion
Can you explain the reason
Why you took a second look, a second look?
I saw you once, met you twice
Ooh, your presence feels so nice
You're silent, get your tongue untied
When the night goes still you open wide
You've got to say oh ohh, before I come undone
You got a sweet expression
Is that the spot that I should kiss on?
Hey tell me, can you hear me?
You've got to raise your voice 'cause the music's loud
You've got to shout, spit it out
It seems like you've got a funny way
Eyes that tell what you can't say
I sure would like to read your mind
You're speechless and I've tried and tried
You've got to say, oh ohh, before I come undone
Right from the start
Your kissin' lips are undone
If you just say somethin'
I won't tell you to shut it up
La la la la, la la
La la la la, la la, la la
La la la la, la la
La la la la, la la, la la la, la la la
It's like an application
You fill it in the open spaces
'Cause I've been overtakin'
And I'm so sick of waitin' one, two, three
Answer me, answer me
I saw you once, met you twice
Ooh, your presence feels so nice
You're silent, get your tongue untied
When the night goes still you open wide
You've got to say oh, ohh, before I come undone
I saw you once, met you twice
Ooh, your presence feels so nice
You're silent, get your tongue untied
When the night goes still you open wide
Fate points the finger
It's a double-barreled ringer
You're the one, you're the one
That's been touched by the singer
And then in the night, cold as ice
Hi-five, you're a co-ed mingler
He leaves no marks in spite of the sparks
And so touch has become the winner
Touch is the Tingler
Making me itch
Making me twitch
Touch is the Tingler
Controlling my mind
Climbing my spine
Fate points the finger
What you gonna bring me?
A pretty note from your sweet throat
That's been touched by the Tingler
But in the night, cold as ice
Hi-five, co-ed mingler
He leaves no marks in spite of sparks
And so touch has become the Tingler
Touch is the Tingler
Making me itch
Making me twitch
Touch is the Tingler
Controlling my mind
Climbing my spine
Fate points the finger
It's a double-barreled ringer
You're the one, you're the one
That's been touched by the singer
And then in the night, cold as ice
Hi-five, you're a co-ed mingler
He leaves no marks in spite of the sparks
And so touch has become the Tingler
Touch is the Tingler
Touch is the Tingler
The tide is high
The tide is high
The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm number one
I'm not the kinda girl who gives up just like that, oh, no
It's not the things you do that tease and hurt me bad
But it's the way you do the things you do to me
I'm not the kinda girl who gives up just like that, oh, no
The tide is high
I'm number one
Number one
Number one
Every girl wants you
But I'll wait, my dear
I'm not the kinda girl who gives up just like that, oh, no
The tide is high
I'm gonna be number one
Number one
Number one
Every girl wants you
But I'll wait, my dear
I'm not the kinda girl who gives up just like that, oh, no
The tide is high
I'm gonna be number one
Number one
Number one
Number one
The tide is high
I'm gonna be your number one
The tide is high
I'm number one
The tide is high, I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
The tide is high, I'm holding on
Everyday brings change
And the world puts on a new face
Certain things rearrange
And this whole world seems like a new face
Secretly I've been tailing you
Like a fox that preys on a rabbit
I had to get you and so I know
I had to learn your ways and habits
Oooooooooooyou were the catch that I was after
I looked up and I was in your arms
And I know that I was captured
What's this whole world coming to
Things just ain't the same
Anytime the hunter gets captured by the game
I had laid such a tender trap
Hoping you might fall into it
Love hit me with a sudden slap
One kiss and then I knew it
Ooooooooooomy plan didn't work out like I thought
I had laid my trap for you
But it seems that I got caught
What's this whole world coming to
Things just ain't the same
We want fun we wanna run
We want fun we gotta run
We want fun get out among the hottest clubs and find some love
Billions of people have heard of me and everyone knows
the sun rises in the East.
Not too nice, not too sweet, no-one even talks to me.
I shake the leaves right off the trees. I'm the bee's greasy knees.
I shake 'em, I break 'em, I drop 'em from eight miles high, alright
In the past my fate was cast, my social life was limited to Halloween
and New Years Eve, monotony was killing me, approaching schizophrenia.
I hit the hot spots every night and ...
for the first time in my life the bouncers would greet me,
the doormen would escort me, managers adored me.
Photographers would follow me begging for a smile;
"Beast, over here, Beast!" "Here, Beast!" The hat check always said to me,
"Hiya B, whatcha doin' later?"
We want fun we gotta run
If you need fun get out and run
You need fun for feeling fine
We want fun for feeling fine and find the one ...
Now I'm not bragging. Heaven knows, I spend no more nights alone.
Lucky me, I'm ten foot three and freaky.
My picture's been reprinted, interviews requested one hundred times a week.
Believe it, I'm not talking through my teeth .....
Are you sure you got it, I mean it, to prove it I'm in the news.
It's true, it's true, check it out, check it out
He wants her love
She wants love
I take action, get relief, pick a partner, pick a piece, get satisfaction
I am the Beast, I am the Beast
She wants fun
He wants her love
I get satisfaction - I pick up my feet.
I'm the centre of attraction by staying off the streets
And I want love, get some funk and get some fun
Punks like fun, punks like funk
Even though Jeff was worried
They weren't in a hurry
They planned a lovely honeymoon
Sue had a brand new Chevy
Conservative, in good taste
Only 30 payments due
They had outstanding tickets
They had no car insurance
But they had lots of things to do
They were getting organised
They had their plans all finalised
The date was set for Saturday
Susie and Jeffrey, they're gonna get married
They're going for a blood test
What if I don't pass my blood test?
What about our marriage licence?
What if I can't be deprogrammed?
Don't act like it's your last chance
We could have fun at the Spahn Ranch.
It's not like Gordon Avenue
Susie and Jeffrey, they're gonna get married
They're going for a blood test
Jeffrey said "Let's wait"
Sue took her foot off of the brake
He drove into a wall
Don't get excited, now don't shout!
I'll scratch your eyes out
Now we can't have our honeymoon!"
Don't touch she's my fiance!
Say, but I like the way you play
An autograph from Orson Welles
I'm a fan, here's my record
It's one we can't get programmed
We want to give to all of you
They had a little argument
Sue took her foot off of the brake
He drove the car into a wall
They had a little argument
Sue took her foot off of the brake
He drove the car into a wall
They had a disagreement
Sue took her foot off of the brake
I know a girl from a lonely street
Cold as ice cream, but still as sweet
Dry your eyes, Sunday Girl
Hey, I saw your guy with a different girl
Looks like he's in another world
Run and hide, Sunday Girl
Hurry up, hurry up and wait
I stay away all week and still I wait
I got the blues, please come see
What your lovin' means to me
She can't catch up with the working crowd
The weekend mood and she's feeling proud
Live in dreams, Sunday Girl
Baby, I would like to go out tonight
If I go with you my folks will get uptight
Stay at home, Sunday Girl
(Ooh ooh ooh)
Hey, j'ai vu ton mec avec une autre fille
Il semblait dans un autre monde
Cours te cacher Sunday girl
Quand je t'ai revu l'éte j'ai decidé
Si ton amour était pareil au mien
Je pourrais être Sunday girl
Dépéche-toi, dépéche-toi et attends
Toute la semaine absent et pourtant j'attends
J'ai le cafard, je t'en prie viens voir
Ce que ton amour represente pour moi
Dépéche-toi, dépéche-toi et attends
Toute la semaine absent et pourtant j'attends
J'ai le cafard, je t'en prie viens voir
Ce que ton amour represente pour moi
I got the blues
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up and wait
You close your eyes and you will see
Micro-flashing neon lights
Open your eyes and you will see
It still looks like the same thing
Lie and wait for sleep and listen
To your heart beat too fast for sleep
Close your eyes and you will see
The sound asleep
I want to go, I want to go
I want to go down to go to sleep
Your frame of reference
Is my swimming pool
My, my swimming pool
Still looks like the China Sea
Pool to sea and finally
The sound asleep
Feel the muscles in your face
Twitch, relax, remembering
Everything that went down and will go down
I want to go down to sleep
Insomnia, no sleep disease
Petties parking, feed me please
Lie and wait for sleep and listen
What's all that commotion going on?
The boy in the back on his second attack
Wants his baby back (wants his baby back)
What's all that commotion that you hear?
The girl in the back who was doing the quake
Got a belly-ache, she can't concentrate
Pick up the beat, you can move like you're made out of vapour
"Catch me if you can" is what she said with her hands
Come on and take me back (can you take her back?)
When she gives you the beat and you get the shine
The world slows down and she stops on a dime
Got a number when you close your eyes
Like a real magician
Still she knows she'll never lose a thing
She can put you up on a shelf until she wants to pull the string
Still you know she'll never slip away
Keep time in your head, counting in your head
Slow motion, I can play with time
I can keep today but tomorrow's fine
Stop and look at the pictures rolling in your head
Slow motion, you can play with time
You can leave her today but tomorrow's fine
Stop and live in your dreams at night
Rolling in your bed
Slow motion, you can stop on a dime
Slow motion, you ought to try it sometime
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back
Slow motion, you can pick up the beat
Slow motion, you can stop on the street
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back
Slow motion, you can stop on a dime
Slow motion, you ought to try it sometime
Take me back on another track
Take me back, take me back
Slow motion, you can pick up the beat
Slow motion, you can stop on the street
Take me back on another track
Shayla worked in a factory
She wasn't history. She's just a number
One day she gets her final pay
And she goes far away
Green trees call to me
I am free but life is so cheap
Scenery is still outside of me
All alone, trapped by its beauty
Shayla turned to run away
To leave in peace and end her stay
Years of fear were in her way
Lost in space and down she came
Suddenly some subtle entity
Some cosmic energy brushed her like shadows
Down here we stop to wonder
He's on the level if he's inclined
The son of a devil, he wants mine and more
Ooh, he's a high, high climber
Not just a clinging vine
He made the grade, he made his marks, Senor
And guess who's keeping score?
Rush rush, got the yeyo?
Buzz buzz, gimme yeyo
Rush rush, got the yeyo? Uh oh
Yo yo, no no yeyo, uh oh
He's a real speed demon
He's one of a kind
Watching, waiting, winking over his shoulder
He's running out of time
Rush rush to the yeyo
Buzz buzz, gimme yeyo, uh oh
Yo yo, no no yeyo, go go
Rush rush to the yeyo
Never, never take a chance before you know he's in a hurry
Better, better make your mind up boy, he's faster, he's faster, he's faster, he's faster
Rush rush, gimme yeyo
Buzz buzz buzz, gimme yeyo, uh oh
No no, gimme yeyo
Yo yo, dame yeyo, uh oh
Rush rush, gimme yeyo
Buzz buzz buzz, gimme yeyo, uh oh
No no, gimme yeyo
Yo yo, dame yeyo, uh oh
He's a real speed demon
He's one of a kind
Watching, waiting, winking over his shoulder
He's running out of time, time, time, time
Rush rush (rush rush)
Buzz buzz (buzz buzz)
Rush rush rush (rush rush)
Buzz buzz (buzz buzz)
Rush rush (rush rush)
Buzz buzz (buzz buzz)
Rush rush rush (rush rush)
Buzz buzz (buzz buzz), uh oh
Rush rush, gimme yeyo
Buzz buzz, gimme yeyo
Rush rush rush, gimme yeyo
Buzz buzz, gimme yeyo
Yo yo, gimme yeyo
And now, here is The Voice
Toe to toe
Dancing very close
Body breathing
Almost comatose
Wall to wall
People hypnotized
And they're stepping lightly
Hang each night in Rapture
Back to back
Sacrailiac
Spinless movement
And a wild attack
Face to face
Sadly solitude
And it's finger popping
Twenty-four hour shopping in Rapture
The world is very different now, for man holds in his mortal hand
the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life
Fab Five Freddie told me everybody's high
DJ's spinnin' are savin' my mind
Flash is fast, Flash is cool
Francois sez fas, Flashe' no do
And you don't stop, sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car and you drive real far
And you drive all night and then you see a light
And it comes right down and lands on the ground
And out comes a man from Mars
And you try to run but he's got a gun
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head
And then you're in the man from Mars
You go out at night, eatin' cars
You eat Cadillacs, Lincolns too
Mercurys and Subarus
And you don't stop, you keep on eatin' cars
Then, when there's no more cars
You go out at night and eat up bars where the people meet
Face to face, dance cheek to cheek
One to one, man to man
Dance toe to toe
Don't move to slow, 'cause the man from Mars
Is through with cars, he's eatin' bars
Yeah, wall to wall, door to door, hall to hall
He's gonna eat 'em all
Rapture, be pure
Take a tour, through the sewer
Don't strain your brain, paint a train
You'll be singin' in the rain
I said don't stop, do punk rock
We observe today not a victory of party, party, party, party, party,
(you bet) party, (you bet) party, (you bet)!
Party, party, (you bet) party, party, (you bet) party, party, party, party, party
And now, here is The Voice!
Well now you see what you wanna be
Just have your party on TV
'Cause the man from Mars won't eat up bars when the TV's on
And now he's gone back up to space
Where he won't have a hassle with the human race
And you hip-hop, and you don't stop
Just blast off, sure shot
'Cause the man from Mars stopped eatin' cars and eatin' bars
And now he only eats guitars, get up!
Ooh, ooh oh!
Toe to toe, dancing very close
Barely breathing, almost comatose
Wall to wall, people hypnotized
And they're stepping lightly
Hang each night in rapture
Back to back, sacroiliac
Spineless movement and a wild attack
Face to face, sadly solitude
And it's finger popping
Twenty-four hour shopping in rapture
Fab Five Freddie told me everybody's fly
DJ's spinnin' are savin' my mind
Flash is fast, flash is cool
Francois sais pas, flashe' no do
And you don't stop, sure shot
Go out to the parking lot
And you get in your car and drive real far

Rapture, be pure
Take a tour through the sewer
Don't strain your brain, paint a train
You'll be singin' in the rain
I said, "Don't stop, do punk rock"
Man to man, body muscular
Seismic decibel by the jugular
Wall to wall, tea time technology
And a digital ladder, no sign of bad luck in rapture
Well, now you see what you wanna be
Just have your party on TV
'Cause the man from Mars won't eat up bars
Where the TV's on
Now he's gone back up to space
Where he won't have a hassle with the human race
And you hip-hop and you don't stop
Just blast off, sure shot
'Cause the man from Mars
Stopped eatin' cars and eatin' bars
