Queen are a British rock band formed in London in 1971, originally consisting of Freddie Mercury (lead vocals, piano), Brian May (guitar, vocals), John Deacon (bass guitar, guitars, vocals), and Roger Taylor (drums, vocals). Queen's earliest works were influenced by progressive rock, but the band gradually ventured into more conventional and radio-friendly works, incorporating more diverse and innovative styles in their music.
Before joining Queen, Brian May and Roger Taylor had been playing together in a band named Smile with bassist Tim Staffell. Freddie Mercury (then known as Farrokh/Freddie Bulsara) was a fan of Smile, and encouraged them to experiment with more elaborate stage and recording techniques after Staffell's departure in 1970. Mercury himself joined the band shortly thereafter, changed the name of the band to "Queen", and adopted his familiar stage name. John Deacon was recruited prior to recording their eponymous debut album (1973). Queen enjoyed success in the UK with their debut and its follow-up, Queen II (1974), but it was the release of Sheer Heart Attack (1974) and A Night at the Opera (1975) that gained the band international success. The latter featured "Bohemian Rhapsody", which stayed at number one in the UK Singles Chart for nine weeks; it charted at number one in several other territories, and gave the band their first top ten hit on the US Billboard Hot 100. Their 1977 album, News of the World, contained two of rock's most recognisable anthems, "We Will Rock You" and "We Are the Champions". By the early 1980s, Queen were one of the biggest stadium rock bands in the world, and their performance at 1985's Live Aid is regarded as one of the greatest in rock history. In 1991, Mercury died of bronchopneumonia, a complication of AIDS, and Deacon retired in 1997. Since then, May and Taylor have infrequently performed together, including a collaboration with Paul Rodgers under the name Queen + Paul Rodgers which ended in May 2009.
Plot
Having to escape 'His' reality, Angel climbs to the roof, up the steeple, stands on the cross, and jumps. His destination being heaven or hell, he is surprised to land in what seems to be paradise. But freedom is short lived as he soon realizes higher powers and social orders govern the tantalizing secular land, demanding him to fall back down to his knees. Angel is left to fend off the winds of (self) destruction blowing down his neck.
Plot
Filthy Rich Filthy Uncle Phil is the tale of Pierce Pierson, the Eternal Izod Ingrate (an acrid sneer, frozen in the yuppie bilge of circa 1987), who disrespects his house-proud spouse and pays excessive lip service to his revolting-yet-rich-and-radically-free Uncle Phil. Sure, he despises the old Saturnalian, but oh, that fortune... When Uncle Phil offers a path to his riches that would repel marginally-moral mankind, Pierce takes the bait. How much soul, health and integrity will Pierce compromise in his greedy quest?!

Plot
All Lodge wants is for his gaming group to finish their adventure. Unfortunately, they're more interested in seducing barmaids, mooning their enemies, and setting random villagers on fire. Desperate to rein in his players, Lodge injects two newbies into the distrust: a non-player character controlled by Lodge, who the power gamers immediately distrust, and the rarest gamer of all -- a girl. Can the group overcome their bickering to save the kingdom, or will the evil necromancer Mort Kemnon triumph unopposed? A parody of fantasy films and the adventure gaming community, The Gamers: Dorkness Rising is a hilarious romp through the world of sword and sorcery -- in this case, a world of exploding peasants, giant house cats, and undead roast turkeys. Game on!

Sammy was low,
just watching the show,
over and over again.
He knew it was time,
he'd made up his mind,
to leave his dead life behind.
His boss said to him
boy, you'd better begin
to get those crazy notions
right out of your head
Sammy who do you think that you are?
You should have been sweeping,
at the emerald bar.
Spread your wings and fly away,
fly away, far away.
Spread your little wings and fly away
fly away, far away.
Pull yourself together,
'cause you know you should do better,
that's because you're a free man.
He spends his evenings alone,
in his hotel room.
Keeping his thoughts to himself,
he'd be leaving soon.
Wishing he was miles and miles away,
nothing in this world, nothing,
would make him stay.
Since he was small,
had no luck at all,
nothing came easy to him.
Now it was time,
he'd made up his mind,
this could be my last chance
His boss said to him
now listen boy, you're always dreaming,
you got no real ambition,
you won't get very far.
Sammy, boy don't you know who you are?
why can't you be happy,
at the emerald bar?
(So honey) spread you wings and fly away,
fly away, far away.
spread your little wings and fly away,
fly away, far away.
pull yourself together,
'cause you know you should do better,
that's because your a free man.
I want you
Tried to be your son and daughter rolled into one
You said you'd equal any man for having your fun
Didn't you feel surprise to find
The cap just didn't fit?
The world expects a man
To buckle down and to shovel shit
What'll you do for loving
When its only just begun?
I want you to be a woman
Tried to be a teacher and a fisher of men
An equal people preacher
Will you lead us all the same?
Travelled around the world
And found a brand new word for day
Watching the time mustn't linger behind
Pardon me I have to get away
What'll you think of heaven
If it's back from where you came?
I want you to be a woman
Didn't you feel surprise to find
The cap just didn't fit?
The world expects a man
To buckle down and to shovel shit
What'll you do for loving
You call me up and treat me like a dog
You call me up and tear me up inside
You've got me on a lead
You bring me down
You shout around
You don't believe that I'm alone.
Sweet Lady
Sweet Lady
Sweet Lady...Stay sweet.
You say
"You call me up and feed me all the lines
"You call me sweet like I'm some kind of cheese
"Waiting on the shelf
"You eat me up
"You hold me down
"I'm just a fool to make you a home
"And you say
"Sweet lady
"Sweet lady
"Sweet lady...Stay sweet."
My Sweet lady
Though it seems like we wait forever
Stay sweet baby
Sleeping very soundly on a Saturday morning
I been dreaming I was Al Capone
There's a rumor going round
Gotta clear outta town
Yeah, I'm smelling like a dry fish bone
Here come the law
Gonna break down the door
Gonna carry me away once more
Never, I never, I never want it anymore
Gotta get away from this stone cold floor
Crazy...
Stone cold crazy, you know
Rainy afternoon I gotta blow a typhoon
And I'm playing on my slide trombone
Anymore, anymore, cannot take it anymore
Gotta get away from this stone cold floor
Crazy...
Stone cold crazy, you know
Walking down the street shooting people that I meet
With my rubber tommy water gun
Here come the deputy
He's gonna come and getta me
I gotta get me get up and run
They got the sirens loose
I ran right outta juice
They're gonna put me in a cell
If I can't go to heaven
Will they let me go to hell
Crazy...
Words and music by Brian May and Tim Staffell
Know what I said when I saw you crying
Hang on that's folly
I was reeking the head I believed your lying
You're just a bad memory
My life was going to be better
My why could I never ever see she'd step on me
Well I talked to your friend just the other day
I was gonna look and raise a smile
And she hid a smile and she ain't like you
Been asleep from all the journeys a little while
My life was going to be better
My why could I never ever see she'd step on me
Step on me,step on me,step on me
Now it's so good I won't waste my time
On a two year old picture of you
Oh now that you're gone everything's fine
But you probably think that we're through
My life was going to be better
My why could I never ever see she'd step on me
Step on me,step on me,step on me
Now it's so good I won't waste my time
On a two year old picture of you
Oh now that you're gone everything's fine
But you probably think that we're through
My life was going to be better
My why could I never ever see she'd step on me
Never ever see she'd step on me
Let me show it to you
See what I got
I got a hell of a lot
Tell me what you feel
Is it real
Is it real
You know I got what it takes
And I can take a lot
Did you hear the last call baby
You and me got staying power
You and me we got staying power
Staying power I got it I got it
I wonder when we're gonna make it
I wonder when we're gonna shake it
Rock me baby rock me
C'mon you can shock me
Let's catch on to the groove
Make it move, make it move
You know how to shake that thing
We'll work it, work it, work it
You and I can play ball baby
You and me got staying power
You and me we got staying power
I wonder when we're gonna make it
I wonder when we're gonna shake it
I've got fire down below
I'm just a regular dynamo
Want some smooth company
Don't lose control just hang on out with me
Got to get to know each other
But we got plenty of time
Did you hear the last call baby
You and me got staying power
You and me we got staying power
Power
I wonder when we're gonna stick it
I wonder when we're gonna trick it
Blow baby blow
Let's get down and go go
Get yourself in the mood
Got to give a little bit of attitude
Baby don't you crash
Let's just trash, trash, trash
Did you hear the last call baby
You and me got staying power
You and me we got staying power
========================
The moon, and stars, seem awful cold and bright
Let's hope, the snow, will make this Christmas right
My friends, the world, will share this special night
Because it's Christmas,
Yes it's Christmas
Thank God It's Christmas
For one night
Thank God It's Christmas
Thank God It's Christmas
Thank God It's Christmas
Can it be Christmas?
Let it be Christmas every day
Oh, my love, we live in trouble days
Oh, my friends, we have the strangest ways
All my friends, on this one day of days
Thank God It's Christmas
Yes It's Christmas
Thank God It's Christmas
For one day
Thank God It's Christmas
Yeah it's Christmas
Thank God It's Christmas
Thank God It's Christmas
Yeah it's Christmas
Thank God It's Christmas
For one day
yeah
Words and music by Brian May
When I'm gone no need to wonder
If I ever think of you
The same moon shines
The same wind blows for both of us
And time is but a paper moon
Be not gone
Though I'm gone it's as though
I hold the flower that touches you
A new life grows
The blossom knows there's no one else
Could warm my heart as much as you
Be not gone
Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned
Teo torriatte konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki
Hear my song still think of me
The way you've come to think of me
The nights grow long
But dreams live on
Just close your pretty eyes
And you can be with me
Dream on
Teo torriatte konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki
When I'm gone they'll say we were all fools
And we don't understand
Oh be strong don't turn your heart
We're all you're all we're all for all for always
Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned
My new purple shoes, bin' amazing the people next door
And my rock 'n' roll 45's, bin' enraging the folks on the lower floor
I got a way with the girls on my block
Try my best be a real individual
And when we go down to smokies and rock
They line up like it's some kinda ritual
Ooh give me a good guitar, and you can say that my hair's a disgrace
Or, just find me an open car, I'll make the speed of light outta this place
Mmm, I like the good things in life
But most of the best things ain't free
Some same situation, justs cuts like a knife
When you're young, and you're poor, and you're crazy, crazy
Young and you're crazy
Young and you're crazy
Young and you're crazy
But ooh give me a good guitar and you can say that my hair's a disgrace
(Album: The Works, 1984)

Monday
Start of my holiday
Freedom for just one week
Feels good to get away
Tuesday
Saw her down on the beach
I stood and watched a while
She looked and smiled at me
Wednesday
I didn't see her
I hoped that she'd be back tomorrow
And then on Thursday
My luck had changed
She stood there all alone
I went and ask her name
I never thought that this could happen to me
In only seven days
It would take a hundred and more
For memories to fade
I wish Friday
Would last forever
I held her close to me
I couldn't bear to leave her there
Saturday
Just twenty-four hours
Oh no
I'm going back home on Sunday
Oh so sad
In my defence what is there to say
All the mistakes we made must be faced today
It's not easy now knowing where to start
While the world we love tears itself apart
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between
With a fading dream
In my defence what is there to say
We destroy the love - it's our way
We never listen enough never face the truth
Then like a passing song
Love is here and then it's gone
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
For just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between
With a fading dream
I'm just a singer with a song
How can I try to right the wrong
I'm just a singer with a melody
I'm caught in between with a fading dream
Caught in between with a fading dream
Caught in between with a fading dream
Oh what on earth
Oh what on earth
How do I try
Do we live or die
Oh help me God
Please help me
Musical improvisation during concerts: Freddie Mercury makes random noises with his mouth while the other members of the band create a nice background.
Just think of all those hungry mouths we have to feed
Take a look at all the suffering we breed
So many lonely faces scattered all around
Searching for what they need.
Is this the world we created
What did we do it for
Is this the world we invaded
Against the law
So it seems in the end
Is this what we're all living for today
The world that we created.
You know that everyday a helpless child is born
Who needs some loving care inside a happy home
Somewhere a wealthy man is sitting on his throne
Waiting for life to go by.
Is this the world we created, we made it on our own
Is this the world we devastated, right to the bone
If there's a God in the sky looking down
What can he think of what we've done
While the sun hangs in the sky and the desert has sand
While the waves crash in the sea and meet the land
While there's a wind and the stars and the rainbow
Till the mountains crumble into the plain
Oh yes we'll keep on tryin'
Oh tread that fine line
Oh we'll keep on tryin' yeah
Just passing our time
While we live according to race, colour or creed
While we rule by blind madness and pure greed
Our lives dictated by tradition, superstition, false religion
Through the eons, and on and on
Oh yes we'll keep on tryin'
Oh we'll tread that fine line
Oh oh we'll keep on tryin'
Till the end of time
Till the end of time
Through the sorrow all through our splendour
Don't take offence at my innuendo
You can be anything you want to be
Just turn yourself into anything you think that you could ever be
Be free with your tempo, be free be free
Surrender your ego - be free, be free to yourself
Oooh, oooh -
If there's a God or any kind of justice under the sky
If there's a point, if there's a reason to live or die
If there's an answer to the questions we feel bound to ask
Show yourself - destroy our fears - release your mask
Oh yes we'll keep on trying
Hey tread that fine line
Yeah we'll keep on smiling yeah
And whatever will be - will be
We'll just keep on trying
We'll just keep on trying
Till the end of time Till the end of time

When love breaks up
When the dawn light wakes up
A new life is born
Somehow I have to make this final breakthru ... Now!
I wake up
Feel just fine,
Your face
Fills my mind
I get religion quick
'Cos you're looking divine
Honey you're touching something, you're touchin' me,
I'm under your thumb, under you're spell, can't you see,
If I could only reach you,
If I could make you smile,
If I could only reach you,
That would really be a breakthru - oh yeah.
Breakthru, these barriers of pain,
Breakthru, to the sunshine from the rain,
Make my feelings known towards you
Turn my heart inside and out for you now
Somehow,
I have to make this final breakthru.
Now I
Your smile,
Speaks books to me,
I break up,
With each and every one of your looks at me,
Honey you're starting something deep inside of me,
Honey you're sparking something, this fire in me,
I'm outta control, I wanna rush headlong into this ecstasy
If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru
If I could only reach you
If I could make you smile,
If I could only reach you
That would really be a breakthru

Lyrics
Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I'm easy come, easy go
Little high, little low
Any way the wind blows, doesn't really matter to me, to me
Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away
Mama, ooo
Didn't mean to make you cry
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body's aching all the time
Goodbye everybody - I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, ooo - (any way the wind blows)
I don't want to die
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all
I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouch, scaramouch will you do the fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning - very very frightening me
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo Figaro - magnifico
I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me
He's just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come easy go - will you let me go
Bismillah! No - we will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let him go
Bismillah! We will not let you go - let me go
Will not let you go - let me go (never)
Never let you go - let me go
Never let me go - ooo
No, no, no, no, no, no, no -
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me
for me
for me
So you think you can stop me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Oh baby - can't do this to me baby
Just gotta get out - just gotta get right outta here
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Nothing really matters
Anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me
(Mercury)

(Dedicated to Johnathan Harris, boy racer to the end)
The machine of a dream, such a clean machine,
With the pistons a pumpin', and the hubcaps all gleam.
When I'm holding your wheel,
All I hear is your gear,
When my hand's on your grease gun,
Oh it's like a disease son,
I'm in love with my car, gotta feel for my automobile,
Get a grip on my boy racer rollbar,
Such a thrill when your radials squeal.
Told my girl I just had to forget her,
Rather buy me a new cartburettor,
So she made tracks sayin' ths is the end now,
Cars don't talk back they're just four wheeled friends now,
When I'm holding your wheel,
All I hear is your gear,
When I'm cruisin' in overdrive,
Don't have to listen to no run of the mill talk jive,
I'm in love with my car, gotta feel for my automobile,
I'm in love with my car, string back gloves in my automolove!
You and me are destined
You'll agree
To spend the rest of our lives with each other
The rest of our days like two lovers
For ever - yeah - for ever
From the moment you walked in the joint,
I could see you were a man of distinction,
A real big spender
Good lookin' so refined
Say wouldn't you like to know what's going on in my mind
So let me get right to the point
I don't pop my cork for every GUY I see
Hey big spender
Spend a little time with me
I don't want my freedom
There's no reason for living with a broken heart
This is a tricky situation
I've only got myself to blame
It's just a simple fact of life
It can happen to anyone
You win - you lose
It's a chance you have to take with love
Oh yeah - I fell in love
And now you say it's over and I'm falling apart
It's a hard life
To be true lovers together
To love and live forever in each others hearts
It's a long hard fight
To learn to care for each other
To trust in one another right from the start
When you're in love
I try to mend the broken pieces
I try to fight back the tears
They say it's just a state of mind
But it happens to everyone
How it hurts - deep inside
When your love has cut you down to size
Life is tough - on your own
Now I'm waiting for something to fall from the skies
And I'm waiting for love
Yes it's a hard life
Two lovers together
To love and live forever in each others hearts
It's a long hard fight
To learn to care for each other
To trust in one another - right from the start
When you're in love
Yes it's a hard life
In a world that's filled with sorrow
There are people searching for love in ev'ry way
It's a long hard fight
But I'll always live for tomorrow
I'll look back on myself and say I did it for love
Words and music by brian may
Happy little day jimmy went away
met his little jenny on a public holiday
a happy pair they made so decorously laid
'neath the gay illuminations all along the promenade
it's so good to know there's still a little magic in the air
i'll weave my spell
Jenny will you stay tarry with me pray
nothing 'ere need come between us
tell me love what do you say?
oh no i must away to my mum in disarray
if my mother should discover how i spent my holiday
it would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air
i'll say farewell
Oh rock of ages do not crumble
love is breathing still
oh lady moon shine down
a little people magic if you will
Jenny pines away writes a letter ev'ry day
we must ever be together
nothing can my love erase
oh no i'm compromised
i must apologize if my lady should discover
he's a fairy feller
the fairy folk have gathered round the new moon shine
to see the feller crack a nut at nights noon time
to swing his axe he swears, as it climbs he dares
to deliver...
the master-stroke
ploughman, "waggoner will", and types
politician with senatorial pope - he's a dilly-dally-o
pedagogue squinting, wears a frown
and a satyr peers under lady's gown, dirty fellow
what a dirty laddio
tatterdemalion and a junketer
there's a thief and a dragonfly trumpeter - he's my hero
fairy dandy tickling the fancy of his lady friend
the nymph in yellow "can we see the master-stroke"
what a quaere fellow
soldier, sailor, tinker, tailor, ploughboy
waiting to hear the sound
and the arch-magician presides
he is the leader
oberon and titania watched by a harridan
mab is the queen and there's a good apothecary-man
come to say hello
fairy dandy tickling the fancy of his lady friend
the nymph in yellow
what a quaere fellow
the ostler stares with hands on his knees
(Album: Greatest Hits 3, 1999)
"Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh ooh)
Pretending I'm doing well (ooh ooh ooh)
My need is such
I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no-one can tell
Oh yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh ooh)
Adrift in a world of my own (ooh ooh ooh)
I play the game
But to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone
Too real is this feeling of make (make believe) believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh oh, yes I'm the great pretender (ooh ooh ooh)
Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh ooh ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see (ooh you see)
I'm wearing my heart like a clown
Pretend that you're still around
Yeah-eah, wooh hoo
Too real (real) when I feel (feel) what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown (ooh ooh ooh)
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a clown
Pretend that you're

"Football Fight
Track 5. Written by Freddie Mercury. Album Version 1:29
Dialogue:
Ming: Klytus, are your men on the right pills? Maybe you should execute their trainer?
Flash Gordon: 41, 42
Dale Arden: Go Flash go, go Flash go, go Flash go, go Flash go
Chorus 2
All alone, nowhere to go
Watcha gonna do?
Take a look outside your door
She's there waiting for you!
Ectasy is in her eyes
She's sweeter than honey
With her smile she'll take you down
The price is right, it's only money
Chorus 1
She walks the lonely streets
Sells you love for the moment
Oh oh! she's the queen of the night
Says she'll be your hearts desire
All night to devour
Says she'll be your everything
But you'll pay by the hour
Easy money, easy love
Chorus 3
Everyone's a loser oh, oh
Mama's gotta problem
She don't know what to say
Her little baby boy just left home today
She's got to be the loser in the end
She's got to be the loser in the end
Misuse her and you'll lose her as a friend
She's ma on whom you can always depend
She washed and fed, and clothed and cared
For nearly twenty years
And all she gets is "goodbye ma"
And the nightimes for her tears
She's got to be the loser in the end
She's got to be the loser in the end
Misuse her and you'll lose her as a friend
She's ma on whom you can always depend
So listen mothers everywhere
To just one mother's son
You'll get forgotten on the way
If you don't let them have their fun
Forget regrets, and just remember
It's not so long since you were young
You're bound to be the loser in the end
You're bound to be the loser in the end
They'll choose their new shoes that's not far to bend
Bring out the charge of the love brigade
There is spring in the air once again
Drink to the sound of the song parade
There is music and love everywhere
Give a little love to me
Take a little love from me,
I want to share it with you
I feel like a millionaire
Once we were mad, we were happy
We spent all our days holding hands together
Do you remember, my love
How we danced and played
In the rain we laid
Could stay there, forever and ever
Now I am sad
You are so far away
I sit counting the hours day by day
Come back to me, how I long for your love
Come back to me - be happy like
we used to be Come back to me, oh my love
How I long for your love - won't you come back to me, yeah
My fine friend - take me with you and love me forever -
My fine friend - forever - ever
(Repeat verse)
Every drop of rain that falls in Sahara Desert says it all
It's a miracle
All God's creations great and small, the Golden Gate and the Taj Mahal
That's a miracle
Test tube babies being born, mothers, fathers dead and gone
It's a miracle
We have a miracle on earth, mother nature does it all for us
The wonders of this world go on, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon
Captain Cook and Cain and Abel, Jimi Hendrix to the Tower of Babel
It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle
The one thing we're all waiting for, is peace on Earth - an end to war
It's a miracle we need - the miracle
The miracle we're all waiting for today
If every leaf on every tree, could tell a story that would be a miracle
If every child on every street, had clothes to wear and food to eat
That's a miracle
If all God's people could be free, to live in perfect harmony
It's a miracle, we're having a miracle on Earth
Mother nature does it all for us
(the wonders of this world go on)
Open hearts and surgery, Sunday mornings with a cup of tea
Super powers always fighting
But Mona Lisa just keeps on smiling
It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle
(The wonders of this world go on)
Well it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle
The one thing (the one thing)
We're all waiting for (we're all waiting for)
Is peace on Earth (peace on Earth) and an end to war (end to war)
It's a miracle we need, the miracle, the miracle
Peace on Earth and end to war today
That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends
That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends
That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends
That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends
(Album: Queen, 1973)
"When I was young it came to me
And I could see the sun breakin'
Lucy was high and so was I dazzling
Holding the world inside
Once I believed in everyone
Everyone and anyone can see
Oh oh the night comes down
And I get afraid of losing my way
Oh oh the night comes down
Oooh and it's dark again
Once I could laugh with everyone
Once I could see the good in me
The black and the white distinctively colouring
Holding the world inside
Now all the world is grey to me
Nobody can see - you gotta believe it
Oh (oh) oh (oh) the night comes down
And I get afraid of losing my way
Oh oh the night comes down
Oooh and it's dark again
And it's dark again
So you fell like you ain't nobody
Always needed to be somebody
Put your feet on the ground
Put your hand on your heart,
Lift your head to the stars
And the World's for your taking
( All you have to do
is ave the world )
So you feel like it's end of story
Find it all pretty satisfactory
Well I tell you my friend
This might seem like an end
But the continuation is
Yours for the making.........
I'm the hitman
Stand aside
I'm the hitman
I want your life
Ain't no escaping
Don't run and hide
There goes the neighbourhood
I'm gonna kill for your love
Hitman
Now don't you cry
I'm just it man
And you might get fried
Gun in my pocket
Don't get me wrong
I'll be your hitman - a fool for your love
I'm the head shredder -
That's better -
Baby baby baby
I'm the hitman - hitman - hitman
Yeah - trouble in the East, troubled in the West
Struggle with the beast - what a thief, what a pest
Come back mother / Nuke that sucker
Yeah - yeah - yeah
I'm the hitman
I'm your prize
But this hitman -
Can cut you down to size
Love me (baby)
Don't be so cool
Love me love me baby
I've been to the hitman school
Yeah - yeah
You're gonna make my day
Gonna blow you away
When the fun begins
(Hitman)
Are you ready for the sting
Gonna waste that thing
(Hitman)
I'm the invisible man,
I'm the invisible man,
Incredible how you can,
See right through me,
When you hear a sound,
That you just can't place
Feel somethin' move
That you just can't trace,
When something sits
On the end of your bed
Don't turn around
When you hear me tread.
I'm the invisible man,
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you.
Now I'm in your room
And I'm in your bed
And I'm in your life
And I'm in your head
Like the CIA
Or the FBI
You'll never get close
Never take me alive
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you,
Hah, hah, hah, hello,
Hah, hah, hah, hello,
Hah, hah, hah, hello-hello-hello-hello,
Never had a real good friend - not a boy or a girl
No-one knows what I've been through - let my nag unfurl
Sol make my mark from the edge of the world,
From the edge of the world,
From the edge of the world,
Now I'm on your track
And I'm in your mind,
And I'm on your back
But don't look behind
I'm your meanest thought
I'm your darkest fear
Put I'll never get caught
You can't shake me, shake me dear,
I'm the invisible man,
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you

(Verse 1)
In the year of '39
A simple year, the volunteers
In the days when the lands were few
Here the ships sailed out,
'nto the blue and sunny morn'
Sweetest sight ever seen.
And the night followed day
And the storytellers say
That the score brave souls inside
Though many a'lonely day
Sailed across the milky seas
Ne'er looked back, never feared
Never cried.
(Chorus 1)
Don't you hear my call
Though you're many years away
Don't you hear me callin' you
Write your letters in the sand
For the day I take your hand
In the land that our grandchildren knew
(Verse 2)
In the year of '39
Came a ship in from the blue
The volunteers came home that day
And they bring good news
Of a world so newly born
Though their hearts so heavily weigh
For the earth is old and grey
Little darlin', we'll away
But my love, this cannot be
Oh so many years are gone
Though I'm older but a year
Your mother's eyes, from your eyes,
Cry to me.
(Sing Chorus 1)
Don't you hear my call
Though you're many years away
Don't you hear me callin' you
All your letters in the sand
Cannot heal me like your hand
For my life
Still ahead
(Album: The Miracle, 1989)
"Who said that my party was all over, huh, huh
I'm in pretty good shape
The best years of my life are like a super nova
A huh, huh, perpetual craze, I said that
Everybody drank my wine - you get my drift
And then we took a holiday on Khashoggi's ship - well
We really had a good good time they was all so sexy
We was bad, we was blitzed
All in all it was a pretty good trip
This big bad sucker with a fist as big as your head
Wanted to get me, I said go away
I said kiss my ass honey
He pulled out a gun, wanted to arrest me
I said uh, uh, babe
Now listen no-one stops my party
No-one stops my party
No-one, no-one, no-one stops my party
Just like I said, ooh
We were phased, we was pissed
Just having a total eclipse
Bop bop, ba dap bap, ee bap bap bap be dap bap, be de dee, hey
That's good, oh, oo ooo ooooo
This one's on me so let us do it just right
This here one party don't get started 'till midnight
Hey, ahh, everybody
Party to the left
Party to the right
Everyone in the middle doing all up all right
All right, hey
Doing all right
Hey, hey hah, hey hey right
Left - right
She keeps her Moet et Chandon
In her pretty cabinet
'Let them eat cake' she says
Just like Marie Antoinette
A built-in remedy
For Kruschev and Kennedy
At anytime an invitation
You can't decline
Caviar and cigarettes
Well versed in etiquette
Extraordinarily nice
She's a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laserbeam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime
Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?
To avoid complications
She never kept the same address
In conversation
She spoke just like a baroness
Met a man from China
Went down to Geisha Minah
Then again incidentally
If you're that way inclined
Perfume came naturally from Paris
For cars she couldn't care less
Fastidious and precise

Scene 1
You say you love me
And I hardly know your name
And if I say I love in the candle light
There's no one but myself to blame
But there's something inside
That's turning my mind away
Woh oh how I could love you
If I could let you stay
Chorus
It's late - but I'm bleeding deep inside
It's late - is it just my sickly pride
Too late - even now the feeling seems to steal away
So late - though I'm crying I can't help but hear you say
It's late, It's late, It's late
But not too late
Scene 2
The way you love me
Is the sweetest love around
But after all this time
The more I'm trying
The more I seem to let you down
Now you tell me you're leaving
And I just can't believe that it's true
Oh you know that I can love you
Though I know I can't be true
Oh you made me love you
Don't tell me that we're through
Chorus
It's late - and it's driving me so mad
It's late - Yes i know but don't try to tell me that it's
Too late - save our love you can't turn out the light
So late - I've been wrong but I'll learn to be right
It's late, It's late, It's late
But not too late
- I've been so long
- You've been so long
- We've been so long tryin' to work it out
- I ain't got long
- You ain't got long
- We've gotta know what this life's all about
Scene 3
You're staring at me
With suspicion in your eye
You say what game are you playing?
What's this that you're saying?
I know that I can't reply
If I take you tonight
Is it making my life a lie?
Oh you make me wonder
Did I live my life right
Chorus
It's late - but it's time to set me free
It's late - Ooo yes i know but there's no way it has to be
Too late - so let the fire take our bodies on this night
So late - let the waters take our guilt in the tide
It's late It's late It's late It's late
It's late It's late It's late
Oh how wrong can you be
Oh to fall in love
Was my very first mistake
How was I to know
I was far too much in love to see
Jealousy, look at me now
Jealousy, you got me somehow
You gave me no warning
Took me by surprise
Jealousy, you lead me on
You couldn't lose
You couldn't fail
You had suspicion on my trail
How, how, how, oh my jealousy
I wasn't man enough
To let you hurt my pride
Now I'm only left with my own jealousy
Oh how strong can you be
With matters of the heart
Life is much to short
To while away with tears
If only you could see
Just what you do to me
Jealousy, you tripped me up
Jealousy, you brought me down
You bring me sorrow
You cause me pain
Jealousy, when will you let go
Gotta hold of my possesive mind
Turned me into a jealous kind
How, how, how, oh my jealousy
I wasn't man enough
To let you hurt my pride
Now I'm only left with my own jealousy
But now it matters not
If I should live or die
And then I saw Him in the crowd
A lot of people had gathered round Him, the beggars shouted the lepers called him
The old man said nothing, he just stared about him
All going down to see the Lord Jesus, all going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down
Then came a man before His feet he fell, unclean said the leper and rang his bell
Felt the palm of a hand touch his head, go now go now you're a new man instead
All going down to see the Lord Jesus, all going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down
It all began with the three wise men, followed a star took them to Bethlehem
And made it heard throughout the land, born was a leader of man
All going down to see the Lord Jesus, all going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down
It all began with the three wise men, followed a star took them to Bethlehem
And made it heard throughout the land, born was a leader of man
All going down to see the Lord Jesus, all going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down
(Album: The Works, 1984)
"This is the only life for me - yeah
Surround myself around my own fantasy
You just gotta be strong and believe in yourself
Forget all the sadness 'cause love is all you need
Love is all you need
Do you know what it's like to be alone in this world
When you're down and out on your luck and you're a failure
Wake up screaming in the middle of the night
You think it's all been a waste of time,
It's been a bad year.
You start believing everything's gonna be alright
Next minute you're down and you're flat on your back
A brand new day is beginning
Get that sunny feeling and you're on your way (way)
Just believe - just keep passing the open windows.
Just believe - just keep passing the open windows.
Do you know how it feels when you don't have friend (friend)
Without a job and no money to spend
You're a stranger
All you think about is suicide,
One of these days you're gonna lose the fight.
You better keep out of danger - yeah.
That same old feeling just keeps burning deep inside (inside)
You keep telling yourself it's gonna be the end.
Oh - get yourself together.
Things are looking better everyday (day)
Just believe - just keep passing the open windows.
Just believe - just keep passing the open windows.
This is the only life for me - yeah
Surround myself around my own fantasy
You just gotta be strong and believe in yourselves
Forget all the sadness 'cause love is all you need
Just believe - just keep passing the open windows.
Just believe - just keep passing the open windows.
You just gotta be strong and believe in yourselves
Forget all the sadness 'cause love is all you need yeah
Love is all you need
Oh baby love is all you need
Just believe - just keep passing the open windows.
Just believe - just keep passing the open windows.
Just keep passing the open windows.
Just keep passing the open windows.
Just keep passing the open windows.
Just keep passing the open windows.
Just keep passing the open windows.
Just keep passing the open windows.
She won our hearts the art she loved
Is painting pictures free
When she was done she hung them up
For all the children to see
Goodbye April Lady
It's been good to have you around
Goodbye April Lady
You've done alot for the folks in this town
Children learned to read
She strung their beads
It's sorry she was the one
As you can isn't she good
She don't leave nothing undone
repeat
She taught them all to love
She was their cream
And we don't want her to go
But we know too well
She fell in love

Steve walks warily down the street,
with his brim pulled way down low
Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet,
machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, Are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
How do you think I'm going to get along,
without you, when you're gone
You took me for everything that I had,
and kicked me out on my own
Are you happy, are you satisfied
How long can you stand the heat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
There are plenty of ways you can hurt a man
And bring him to the ground
You can beat him
You can cheat him
You can treat him bad and leave him
When he's down
But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you
I'm standing on my own two feet
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
repeating the sound of the beat
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
This street honey is a mean street
Living in this street honey needs a mean streak
We've got criminals living in this street
But there's a heart beat pulse, That keeps on pumping
Like a juke box playing the same dead record
Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring
I got a feeling this world is using me
This town honey is a dead town
Living in this town honey is a let down
Coming to this town honey is a show down
But there's a heart beat pulse
That keeps on pumping some sunshine ray
Through a crack in the shutter
Or a sight of a light, at the end of a tunnel
Still there's a feeling this world is using me
Action this day, action this night
Oh we've gotta learn, to love, to live
You can't say it ain't right
Action this day, action this night
Oh you've got the power, you've got the power
You've got the power to love, to live
You can't say it ain't right
Your mind honey is a bleak place
Living in your minds living in a blank space
Your mind is coming from a rat race
But there's a heart beat pulse, That keeps on pumping
Like a juke box playing the same dead record
Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring
I got a feeling that just won't quit
This world is using me
Action this day, action this night
Oh we've gotta learn, to love, to live
We can't say it ain't right
Action this day, action this night
Oh you've got the power, you've got the power
You've got the power to love, to live
You can't say it ain't right
Action, action this day, action this day
Action, action this day, action this day
Living in the street...
Action...
She came without a farthing, a babe without a name
So much ado about nothing, is what she's try to say
So much ado my lover,
so many games we played
Through every fleeted summer, through every precious day
All dead, all dead, all the dreams we had
And I wonder why I still live on
All dead, all dead, and alone I'm spared
My sweeter half instead, All dead, and gone, all dead
All dead, all dead, at the rainbow's end
And still I hear her own sweet song
All dead, all dead, Take me back again
You know my little friend's, all dead and gone
Her ways are always with me, I wander all the while
But please you must forgive me, I am old but still a child
All dead, all dead, but I should not grieve
In time it comes to everyone, all dead, all dead
But in hope I breathe, of course I don't believe
You're dead and gone, all dead and gone
It's a kind of magic,
It's a kind of magic,
A kind of magic,
One dream, one soul, one prize, one goal.
One golden glance of what should be.(It's a kind of
magic)
One flash of light that shows the way,
No mortal man can win this day. (It's a kind of magic)
The bell that rings inside your mind,
It's challenging the doors of time. (It's a kind of
magic)
The waiting seems eternity, yeah,
The day will dawn of sanity.
Is this a kind of magic?
There can be only one.
This race that lasts a thousand years, will soon be
done.
This flame that burns inside of me,
I'm hearing secret harmonies. (It's a kind of magic)
The bell that rings inside your mind,
Is challenging the doors of time.
It's a kind of magic.
It's a kind of magic.
This race that lasts a thousand years, will soon be,
will soon be, will soon be done.
This is a kind of magic.
There can be only be one.
This race that lasts a thousand years,
Will soon be done.
Magic - it's a kind of magic,
It's a kind of magic,
Magic, magic, magic, magic,
It's magic,
It's a kind of magic.
It's Winter-fall
Red skies are gleaming - oh -
Sea-gulls are flyin' over
Swans are floatin' by
Smoking chimney-tops
Am I dreaming...
Am I dreaming...?
The nights draw in
There's a silky moon up in the sky - yeah -
Children are fantasising
Grown-ups are standin' by
What a super feeling
Am I dreaming...
Am I dreaming...?
woh-woh-woh-woh
(dreaming)
So quiet and peaceful
Tranquil and blissful
There's a kind of magic in the air
What a truly magnificent view
A breathtaking scene
With the dreams of the world
In the palm of your hand
(dreaming)
A cosy fireside chat
A little this, a little that
Sound of merry laughter skippin' by
Gentle rain beatin' on my face
What an extraordinary place!
And the dreams of the child
Is the hope of the man
It's all so beautiful
Like a landscape painting in the sky - yeah -
Mountains are zoomin' higher - mm -
Little girls scream an' cry
My world is spinnin' and spinnin' and spinnin'
It's unbelievable
Sends me reeling
Am I dreaming...
Am I dreaming...?
Words and music by Roger Taylor
Had to make do with a worn out rock and roll scene
The old bop is gettin' tired need a rest
Well you know what I mean
Fifty eight that was great
But it's over now and that's all
Somethin' harder's coming up
Gonna really knock a hole in the wall
Gonna hit ya grab you hard
Make you feel ten feet tall
Well I hope that big new baby's gonna come along soon
You don't know it could happen any ol' rainy afternoon
With the temp'rature down
And the juke box blowin' no fuse
And my musical life's feelin'
Like a long Sunday School cruise
And you know there's one thing
Every single body could use
Yeah listen to me baby
Let me tell you what it's all about
Modern times rock and roll
Modern times rock and roll
Get your high heeled guitar boots and some groovy clothes
Get a hair piece on your chest
And a ring through your nose
Find a nice little man who says
He's gonna make you a real big star
Stars in your eyes ants in your pants
Think you should go far
Everybody in this bum sucking world's
Gonna know just who you are
Look out
Modern times rock and roll
funny how love is everywhere just look and see
funny how love is anywhere you're bound to be
funny how love is every song in every key
funny how love is coming home in time for tea
funny, funny, funny
funny how love is the end of lies when the truth begins
tomorrow comes tomorrow beings
tomorrow brings love in the shape of things
that's what love is, that's what love is
funny how love is can break your heart so suddenly
funny how love came tumbling down with adam and eve
funny how love is running wild and feeling free
funny how live is coming home in time for tea
funny, funny, funny
from the earth below to the heavens above
that's how far and funny is love
at any time, anywhere
if you gotta make love do it everywhere
that's what love is, that's what love is
funny how love is everywhere just look and see
funny how love is anywhere you're bound to be
funny how love is every song and every key
funny how love is when you gotta hurry home
'cos you're late for tea
funny, funny, funny how love is
tomorrow comes, tomorrow brings
tomorrow brings love in the shape of things
at any time, anywhere
if you gotta make love do it everywhere
(Album: Sheer Heart Attack, 1974)
"Don't you misfire
Fill me up
With the desire
To carry on
Don't you know honey, that love's a game
It's always hit or miss, so take your aim
Got to hold on tight, shoot me out of sight
Ooh, don't you misfire
Fill me up
With the desire
To carry on, oooh, ah, oooh, ah
Don't you misfire
Fill me up
With the desire
To carry on
Your gun is loaded, and pointing my way
There's only one bullet, so don't delay
Got to time it right, fire me through the night
Come on take a shot
Fire me higher
Don't you miss this time
I believe there's no evil out there we didn't have a hand in
You believe it's a time for peace and a time for understanding
Some of us believe that we are chosen
And if God is on our side we'll win the game
And some of us believe that there's a heaven
When the trumpets sound and the judges call your name
But let's get it straight:
I believe there's just once chance in this world to hear our brothers
You believe there's a better way to listen to each other
We don't get what the other guy is saying
We hear the words but we don't understand
So around the world the same old anger raging
And we all cry for shame and the same old tragedy goes down
We believe there's a better way to fight
There's a way to make our children safe at night
We believe there's a war we could be winning
But the only way to win it is to give what we need to receive
I believe we need a hero to step boldly from the shadows
You believe there must be someone on the scene that fits the bill
A man or a woman who knows how to say I'm sorry
With courage in his heart to match his creed
A leader who can build a brand new morning
And match the tide of changes
Match the intent with the deed
We believe there's a deed of obligation
To bring reconciliation
To make peace with every nation - in our time
We believe there's not a minute we should be wasting
When the darkness falls it's too late to fix the crime
It's peace that we need
Every father every mother knows the meaning
Human treasure that our leaders do forget
And the bullets fly in the face of common reason
And the pain we give is the legacy in the end we get
We believe there's a song that's worth the singing
It's a song of truth we're bringing
There's a way to share the Earth with everyone
We believe every creature has a being
Has a right to respect and feeling
To live and breathe and flourish in the sun
That's what we believe
They were born with the knowledge of the struggle to survive
They were raised, learning only ways to stay alive
Their language is the language of the bullet and the gun
If you can see them coming, baby better run
Here come the warboys
Here come the warboys
Well they look so pretty as they march and drill
It's such, a pity that they're dressed to kill
Soldiers marching two by two
When it all comes down they know exactly what to do
Here come the... war
Warboys, warboys, children and their toys
Warboys, warboys, make lot a noise
Warboys, when the lightning exlpodes
I pray for your soul
Hup...2...3...4
Well they look so fierce they're gonna tear out your heart
When they get near we're gonna see what they got
Hold on to your soul, friend of mine
I'll see you in hell, some other time
Here come the boys
Helping to kill, those who deserve to die
Tell me who decides
You and I
We have the power
(Album: Greatest Hits 3, 1999)

Ooh, Ooh, Viva
"I had this perfect dream
Un sueno me envolvio
This dream was me and you
Tal vez estas aqui
I want all the world to see
Un instinto me guiaba
A miracle sensation
My guide and inspiration
Now my dream is slowly coming true
The wind is a gentle breeze
EI me hablo de ti
The bells are ringing out
EI canto vuela
They're calling us together
Guiding us forever
Wish my dream would never go away
Barcelona
It was the first time that we met

Another red letter day,
So the pound has dropped and the children are creating,
The other half ran away,
Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber,
Got a pain in the chest,
Doctors on strike what you need is a rest.
It's not easy love, but you've got friends you can trust,
Friends will be friends,
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention,
Friends will be friends,
When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends right till the end.
Now it's a beautiful day,
The postman delivered a letter from your lover,
Only a phone call away,
You tried to track him down but somebody stole his number,
As a matter of fact,
You're getting used to life without him in your way.
It's so easy now, cos you got friends you can trust,
Friends will be friends,
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention,
Friends will be friends,
When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends right till the end.
It's so easy now, cos you got friends you can trust,

I was told a million times
Of all the troubles in my way
Might he grow a little wiser
Little better ev'ry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started
Bread and butter for a smile
Well I sold a million mirrors
In a shop in Alley Way
But I never saw my face
In any window any day
Now they say your folks are telling you
Be a super star
But I tell you just be satisfied
To stay right where you are
Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
It'll take you all your time and a money
To keep you satisfied
Well I've loved a million women
In a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners
Brought to me on silver trays
Give me ev'rything I need
To feed my body and my soul
And I'll grow a little bigger
Maybe that can be my goal
I was told a million times
Of all the people in my way
How I had to keep on trying
And get better ev'ry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started
Same as when I started
Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
It'll take you all your time and money
To keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
It'll take you all your time and money
Honey you'll survive
Do you think you're better ev'ry day
No I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive mmm
All you people keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
All you people
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
Take you all your time and money
Honey you'll survive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
Take you all your time and money honey
[Intro: Masta Killa]
Uh... sweetness.. beautiful queen
Beautiful queen... beautiful queen, yeah.
[Hook: Curtis Mayfield "The Makings of You" sample]
Add a little sugar, honeysuckle and
A great big expression of happiness
Boy, you couldn't miss..
With a dozen roses, such will astound you
[Masta Killa]
Her refinement was beautiful, I acknowledged her
attraction
In passing, driven by a desire to know if she's taken
I was askin', "Is your heart vacant?
Excuse me, Miss, how you feel? Can we build?"
Could it be the mind you see, guidin' you to me?
Extendin' my hand to welcome you in paradise
Supreme observation, di-tect hesitation
Your mind flashed back to other shit you've been
through
Others left you questionable, what's acceptable?
The first sight of this divine light might shy you
Warm words melt the ice between us
My thoughts penetrate and begin to break through
[Chorus w/ hook: Masta Killa]
Let's hit Vegas while the weather is nice
Kiss my hand before I roll my dice
In the 7-45, L.I., rollin' up to your doorstep
It's just the simple thtings in life we do
[Masta Killa]
Watch the God as I'm shapin' and moldin' this planet
I'm holdin'
In suspended animation, love is the highest elevation
Of understandin' I can show, over this candle-light
scene
This is King toast Queen
We touch glasses, sippin' the finest imports
Frank Emerge and Love Supreme, raspberry bubble bath
cream
Steam the mirror, I draw hearts with our name
Relaxin' ya brain with sweet sounds from Claudine
Gladys Knight on to Curtis Mayfield thing
It's just nice-ness, the absence of confusion
Love, peace and happiness, pure bliss
Reminisce about the evenin', hit me when you reach home
Maybe we can build and add on over the phone
Sugar I smoke bone, do you think that I'm wrong?
Your moms might disapprove of my smooth rudeness
Excuse, I don't mean to intrude
[Chorus w/ hook]
[Masta Killa]
Aight, yeah love
See you treatment is royal, relax and uncoil
You spoiled with petals on ya bath water, love
I rose in my whip with my wiz and thought
It rained lightly on the window, the wipe was flowin'
simu'
To the melody, "Didn't I blow you mind?"
Hit the spliffs slow, sit low, seat reclined
In due time, every square inch will be mines
She so fine, reflectin' the light I shine, over wine
I knew she had the good nook-nook from the first look
Hair well groomed and thing
Body wrapped with the Fendi sandle to match
Coach back, swingin' on arm, approach the calm
Skin buttermilk soft as Persian lamb cloth
She asked for directions as if she was lost
But fully in tune with the stars, Sun and Moon
In the tomb, when Starks hit the milk of Lorna Doon
[Chorus w/ hook]
[Allah Real]
Didn't I blow your mind?
Oh, didn't I blow your mind?
Oh, didn't I blow your mind?
Didn't I blow your mind?
[Outro: Masta Killa]
Beautiful queens, beautiful queens
(Album: Live at Wembley '86, 1992)
"The minute you walked in the joint
I could see you were of distinction
A real big spender
Good looking, so refined
Say wouldn't you like to know what's going on in my mind
Let me get right to the point
I don't pop my cork for every girl I see
Hey big spender
You're taking all the sunshine away
Making out like you're the mainline - I knew that
Cos you're a cool cat
Tapping on the toe with a new hat
Just cruising - driving along like the swing king
Feeling the beat of my heart
Feeling the beat of my heart
You're a cool cat
Coming on strong with all the chit-chat
You're alright
Hanging out and stealing all the limelight
Messing with the beat of my heart
Messing with the beat of my heart
You used to be a mean kid
Making such a deal of life
You were wishing and hoping and waiting to really hit the big time
But did it happen, happen, no
You're speeding too fast
Slow down, slow down
You'd better slow down
Slow down
You really know how to set the mood
And you really get inside the groove
Cool cat
Tapping on the toe with a new hat
Just cruising
Driving along like the swing king
Feeling the beat of my heart
Feeling the beat of my heart - yeah yeah
You suck my blood like a leech
You break the law and you breach
Screw my brain till it hurts
You've taken all my money - and you want more,
Misguided old mule
With your pigheaded rules
With your narrow - minded cronies you are fools of the first division-
Death on two legs -
You're tearing me apart,
Death on two legs
You never had a heart of your own -
Kill joy, Bad guy,
Big talking, Small fry
You're just an old barrow - boy
Have you found a new toy to replace me,
Can you face me -
But now you can kiss my ass goodbye
Feel good, are you satisfied
Do you feel like suicide (I think you should)
Is your conscience all right
Does it plague you at night
Do you feel good - Feel good!
Talk like a big business tycoon,
you're just a hot - air balloon,
So no one gives you a damn,
You're just an overgrown school - boy
Let me tell you right.
dog with disease,
you're the King of the 'sleaze'
Put your money where your mouth is Mr. Know all,
Was your fin on the back part of the deal...(shark!)
Death on two legs
You're tearing me apart
Death on two legs -
You never had a heart of your own,
(You never did, right from the start)
Insane... should be put inside,
You're a sewer - rat decaying in a sess pool of pride
Should be made unemployed
make yourself null - and - void,
Make me feel good
You suck my blood like a leech, you break the law and you preach
Screw my brain till it hurts, you've taken all my money
And you want more...
Misguided old mule with your pig headed rules
With your narrow minded cronies, who are fools of the first division
Death on two legs, you're tearing me apart
Death on two legs, you've never had a heart of your own
Kill joy, bad guy, big talking, small fry
You're just an old barrow boy
have you found a new toy to replace me? Can you face me?
But now you can kiss my ass goodbye
Feel good, are you satisfied? Do you feel like, suicide?(I think you should)
Is your conscience all right Does it plague you at night?
Do you feel good feel good?
You talk like a big business tycoon, you're just a hot air balloon
So no-one gives you a damn, you're just an overgrown schoolboy
Let me tan your hide
A dog with disease, you're the king of the 'sleaze'
Put your money where your mouth is, mister know-all
Was the fin on your back part of the deal? (Shark)
Death on two legs, you're tearing me apart
Death on two legs, You've never had a heart (you never did)
of your own (Right from the start)
Insane you should be put inside
You're a sewer rat decaying in a cesspool of pride
Should be made unemployed, then make yourself null and void
Make me feel good I feel good
Words and music by Queen
If you're searching out for something
Don't try so hard
If you're feeling kinda nothing
Don't try so hard
When your problems seem like mountains
You feel the need to find some answers
You can leave it for another day
Don't try so hard
But if you fall and take a tumble it won't be far
If you fail you mustn't grumble
Thank your lucky stars
Just savour every mouthful
And treasure every moment
When the storms are raging round you
Stay right where you are
Oh don't try so hard
Oh don't take it all to heart
It's only fools they make these rules
Don't try so hard
One day you'll be a sergeant major
Oh you'll be so proud
Screaming out your bloody orders
Hey but not too loud
Polish all your shiny buttons
Dress as lamb instead of mutton
But you never had to try to stand out from the crowd
Oh what a beautiful world
This is the life for me
Oh what a beautiful world
It's the simple life for me
Oh don't try so hard
Oh don't take it all to heart
It's only fools - they make these rules
Don't try so hard
Don't try so hard
Don't try so hard
(Album: The Game, 1980)

I don't wanna stop at all...
La da da da daaaa
La la la la
La la laa laa laa laaa
I'm full of doubt
And I'm down with God
Does it help if I pray
Will you listen when I say
That I'm not completely happy with myself
I'm living through everybody else
A queen is on TV
Saying nothing about it at all
And it's all absurd to me
Absolutely nothing about it at all
If I walk amongst the living
Will the clothes I wear blend in
Can every love be something better than the last
And every color blur the past
A queen is on TV
Saying nothing about it at all
And it's all absurd to me
Absolutely nothing about it at all
A queen is on TV
Saying nothing about me at all
And it's all absurd to me
Oh how wrong can you be
Oh to fall in love
Was my very first mistake
How was I to know
I was far too much in love to see
Jealousy, look at me now
Jealousy, you got me somehow
You gave me no warning
Took me by surprise
Jealousy, you lead me on
You couldn't lose
You couldn't fail
You had suspicion on my trail
How, how, how, oh my jealousy
I wasn't man enough
To let you hurt my pride
Now I'm only left with my own jealousy
Oh how strong can you be
With matters of the heart
Life is much to short
To while away with tears
If only you could see
Just what you do to me
Jealousy, you tripped me up
Jealousy, you brought me down
You bring me sorrow
You cause me pain
Jealousy, when will you let go
Gotta hold of my possesive mind
Turned me into a jealous kind
How, how, how, oh my jealousy
I wasn't man enough
To let you hurt my pride
Now I'm only left with my own jealousy
But now it matters not
If I should live or die
Cause I'm only left with my own jealousy
So dear friends your love is gone
Only tears to dwell upon
I dare not say as the wind must blow
So a love is lost, a love is won
Go to sleep and dream again
Soon your hopes will rise and then
From all this gloom life can start anew
Fool always jumping never happy where you land
Fool got no business take your living where you can hey
Hurry down the highway
Hurry down the road
Hurry passing people staring
Hurry hurry hurry hurry
Leave on time, leave on time
Never got your ticket but you leave on time
Leave on time, leave on time
Gonna get your ticket but you leave on time
Leave on time, leave on time
Put it in your pocket but you never can tell
Leave on time, leave on time
Shake that rattle gotta leave on time
Leave on time, leave on time
Fight your battle but you leave on time
Leave on time, leave on time
You never got a minute
No you never got a minute
No you never know
Oh no matter
Fool got no business hanging round and tellin' lies
Fool you got no reason but you got no compromise hey
Stamping on the ceiling
Hammering on the walls
Gotta get out gotta get out gotta get
Oh you know I'm going crazy
Leave on time, leave on time
Gotta get ahead but you leave on time
Leave on time, leave on time
Gotta head on ahead gotta leave on time
Leave on time, leave on time
You're running in the red but you never can tell

Leave on time, leave on time
But you can't take it with you
When you leave on time
Leave on time, leave on time
Gotta KEEP YOURSELF ALIVE but you leave on time
But you leave on time leave on time
Dead on time
Ohh...ohhh take it take it all away
ohh...ohhh take my breath away
ohh...ohhh you take my breath away
Look into my eyes and you'll see I'm the only one.
You've captured my love, stolen my heart,
changed my life.
Every time you make a move you destroy my mind.
And the way you touch I lose control and shiver deep inside.
You take my breath away
You can reduce me to tears with a single sigh
(please don't cry anymore)
every breath that you take, any sound that you make is a whisper in my ear
I could give up all my life for just one kiss
I would surly die, if you dismissed me from your love
You take my breath away
So please don't go
Don't leave me here all by myself
I get ever so lonely from time to time
I will find you anywhere you go
I'll be right behind you
right until the ends of the earth
I'll get no sleep till I find you
to tell you that you just take my breath away
I will find you anywhere you go...ohhh
right until the ends of the earth
I'll get no sleep till I find you
to tell you when I found you
I love you.
(Anymore)
Now you say you're leaving me
I just can't believe it's true
You're my kind of lover
Wanna little bit of feeling
Add a little bit of meaning to my life
I wanna little bit of feeling
A little bit of sunshine to my life
I wanna be your kind of lover
Give a little bit of feeling
Just a little bit of feeling
Add a little bit of meaning to my life
I wanna boogie down with you, brother
Boogie down with bassman
Win love on the grandslam
I'll be there waititng when you call.
Just step right into my heart
Come a little closer
Don't tell me that it's over
Make a brand new start
We can work it out just next to nothing
Work it out, work it out just next to nothing
With feeling, feeling, feeling, with feeling
We can work it out
Let me show what I can do,
I can be your kind of lover
We can work it out
Let me show what I can do,
I can be your kind of lover
I wanna be your kind of mother
Let's talk about loving right
Don't talk about doing wrong
Put a little bit of sense into your mind
We gotta talk it out man to man
Make each other understand
Right now a little happiness would be fine
Just step right into my heart
Come a little closer
Don't tell me that it's over
Make a brand new start
We can work it out just next to nothing
Work it out, work it out just next to nothing
With feeling, feeling, feeling, with feeling
We can work it out
Let me show what I can do, I can be your kind of lover
We can work it out
Let me show what I can do, I can be your kind of lover
Your kind of lover
Music is playing in the darkness
And a lantern goes swinging by
Shadows flickering
My heart's jittering
Just you and I
Not tonight
Come tomorrow
When everything's sunny and bright
No No No
Come tomorrow
Cos then we'll be waiting for the moonlight
We'll go walking in the moonlight
Walking in the moonlight
Laughter ringing in the darkness
People drinking for days gone by
Time don't mean a thing
When you're by my side
Please stay a while
You know I never could foresee the future years
You know I never could see
where life was leading me
But will we be together for ever
What will be my love, can't you see that I just don't know
No no not tonight
Come tomorrow
When everything's gonna be alright
Wait and see
If tomorrow
We'll be as happy as we're feeling tonight
We'll go walking in the moonlight
Walking in the moonlight
I can hear the music in the darkness
Floating softly to where to lie
No more questions now
Let's enjoy tonight
Just you and I
I'm not invited to the party
Been sitting here all night
I'm all alone here at the party
I don't feel all right
Ain't got no black coat
Ain't got no tie
I gotta shape up now
You gotta know why
Dancer, Dancer
I can't live with it I'm gonna die without it
Dancer, Dancer
Ain't no doubt about it
Dancer, Dancer
Why don't you kick off your dancing shoes
And come along with me
You're the life and soul of the funk-tion
It took me all night
To get hold of the right introduction
Blew me out of sight
I taste your lipstick
I look in your eyes
You feel fantastic
My body cries
Dancer, Dancer
I can't live with it I'm gonna die without it
Dancer, Dancer
Ain't no doubt about it
Dancer, Dancer
Why don't you kick off your dancing shoes
And come along with me
(Hot Space)
Dancer, Dancer
I can't believe your dancing
Can't take you home, can't take your dancing
Dancer, Dancer
I go out to work on a Monday morning
Tuesday I go off to honeymoon
I'll be back again before it's time for Sunny-down,
I'll be lazing on a Sunday afternoon
Bicycling on every Wednesday evening
Thursday I go waltzing to the Zoo
I come from London town, I'm just an ordinary guy,
Fridays I go painting in the Louvre
I'm bound to be proposing on a Saturday night (There he goes again)
I'll be lazing on a Sunday (oooo)
lazing on a Sunday (ooooo)
Las Palabras De Amor (The Words Of Love)
Written by Brian May
Don't touch me now
Don't hold me now
Don't break the spell darling, now you are near
Look in my eyes
And speak to me
Those special promises I long to hear
Las palabras de amor
Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor
Love me slow and gently
One foolish world, so many souls
Senselessly hurled through the never ending cold
And all for fear, and all for greed
Speak any tongue but for God's sake we need
Las palabras de amor
Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor
Let me know, this night and evermore
This room is bare
This night is cold
We're far apart and I'm growing old
But while we live, we'll meet again
So then my love we may whisper once more
It's you I adore
Las palabras de amor
Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor
Touch me now - oh wooh hoo
Las palabras de amor
Let us share the words of love
For evermore (for evermore)
For evermore

"Three four
Take a piece of my heart
Take a piece of my soul
Let me live
Oh yeah
Why don't you take another little piece of my heart
Why don't you take it and break it
And tear it all apart
All I do is give
And all you do is take
Baby why don't you give me
A brand new start
So let me live (So let me live)
Let me live (Leave me alone)
Let me live, oh baby
And make a brand new start
Why don't you take another little piece of my soul
Why don't you shape it and shake it
'Til you're really in control
All you do is take
And all I do is give
All that I'm askin'
Is a chance to live
(So let me live) - So let me live
(Leave me alone) - Let me live, let me live
Why don't you let me make a brand new start
Yeah, and it's a long hard struggle, yeah yeah
But you can always depend on me
And if you're ever in trouble - hey
You know where I will be
Why don't you take another little piece of my life
Why don't you twist it and turn it
And cut it like a knife
All you do is live
All I do is die
Why can't we just be friends
Stop livin' a lie
So let me live (So let me live)
Let me live (Leave me alone)
Please let me live

Oh yeah let
Guilt stains on my pillow, Blood on my terraces
Torsos in my closet, Shadows from my past
Life is real, life is real
Life is real, so real
Sleeping is my leisure, Waking up in a minefield
Dream in just a pleasure dome, Love is a roulette wheel
Life is real, life is real
Life is real, oh yeah
Success is my breathing space, I brought it on myself
I will price it, I will cash it, I can take it or leave it
Loneliness is my hiding place, Breast feeding myself
What more can I say? I have swallowed the bitter pill
I can taste it, I can taste it
Life is real, life is real
Life is real
Music will be my mistress, Loving like a whore
Lennon is a genius, Living in every pore
Life is real, life is real
Life is real, so real
Life is cruel, life is a bitch
Life is real, so real
Life is real, life is real, yeah
Life is real
I have sinned dear Father

(Album: Greatest Hits 3, 1999)
"Dee do dee do day
Dee do dee do dee do dee do day oh
Sometimes I feel I'm gonna break down and cry, so lonely
Nowhere to go, nothing to do with my time
I get lonely, so lonely, living on my own.
Sometimes I feel I'm always walking too fast, so lonely
And everything is coming down on me, down on me, I go crazy
Oh so crazy, living on my own.
Dee do de de, dee do de de
I don't have no time for no monkey business
Dee do de de, dee do de de
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, yeah
Got to be some good times ahead
Sometimes I feel nobody gives me no warning
Find my head is always up in the clouds in a dreamworld
It's not easy, living on my own, my own, my own
Dee do de de (lonely), dee do de de (lonely)
I don't have no time for no monkey business
Dee do de de, dee do de de
I get so lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, yeah
Got to be some good times ahead
(Ad lib section!)

"I am forever searching high and low
But why does everybody tell me no
Neptune of the seas have you an answer for me please
The lily of the valley doesn't know
I lie in wait with open eyes
I carry on through stormy skies
I follow every course
My kingdom for a horse
But each time I grow old
Serpent of the Nile
Relieve me for a while
And cast me from your spell - let me go
Messenger from seven seas has flown
To tell the king of Rhye he's lost his throne
Wars will never cease
Is there time enough for peace

You're wondering who I am
(Secret, secret, I've got a secret)
Machine or mannequin
(Secret, secret, I've got a secret)
With parts made in Japan
(Secret, secret, I've got a secret)
I am the modren man
I've got a secret, I've been hiding under my skin
My heart is human, my blood is boiling
My brain I.B.M., so if you see me
Acting strangely, don't be surprised
I'm just a man who needed someone
And somewhere to hide
To keep me alive, just keep me alive
Somewhere to hide to keep me alive
I'm not a robot without emotions
I'm not what you see
I've come to help you
With your problems, so we can be free
I'm not a hero, I'm not a saviour
Forget what you know
I'm just a man whose circumstances
Went beyond his control
Beyond my control, we all need control
I need control, we all need control
I am the modren man
(Secret, secret I've got a secret)
Who hides behind a mask
(Secret, secret, I've got a secret)
So no one else can see
(Secret, secret, I've got a secret)
My true identity
Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto
Domo, Domo
Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto
Domo, Domo
Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto
Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto
Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto
Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto
Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto
Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto
For doing the jobs that nobody wants to
And thank you very much, Mr. Roboto
For helping me escape
Just when I needed to
Thank you, thank you, thank you
I want to thank you
Please, thank you, oh
The problem's plain to see
Too much technology
Machines to save our lives
Machines, de-humanize
The time has come at last
(Secret, secret, I've got a secret)
To throw away this mask
(Secret, secret, I've got a secret)
Now everyone can see
(Secret, secret, I've got a secret)
A Kind Of 'A Kind Of Magic'
Written by Roger Taylor
Magic (magic)
This rage that lasts a thousand years
Will soon be, will soon be, will soon be done
This is (this is) a kind (a kind) of magic (yeah)
There can be only one
This rage that lasts a thousand years
Will soon be done - (done)
(Magic) - It's a kind of magic
It's a kind of magic, magic, magic, magic (magic)
(Magic) ha ha ha haa - it's magic
(Magic)
Yeah - it's a kind of magic
Ha haa
Yeah yeah
Wooh
It's a kind of magic
Keep your chin up when you're feeling lonely
Don't let 'em get you down
Ain't no use in you sitting all alone
Hanging around
For someone to call
They won't come knocking at all
Don't run and hide
Even if it hurts you inside
So I said
Give as good as you get yeah
If you can't beat them join 'em
You'd better do it cos it makes you feel good
If you can't beat 'em join 'em
You're never gonna help yourself
Come on go, get up, hey
Sure feels good
Keep your big hands off my money
Don't try and pull me down
You're taking me out to wine and dine me
Trying to wind me round and around
And bind me to your legal contract
Rumour has it that you can play it dirty
I'll tell you what I'll do about that, that yeah
I'll play you at your own game
If you can't beat them join them
You'd better do it cos it makes you feel good
If you can't beat 'em join 'em
You're never gonna help yourself yeah
That's good
Play it again
If you can't beat 'em join them
You'd better do it cos it makes you feel good
If you can't beat 'em join 'em
A hand above the water
An angel reaching for the sky
Is it raining in Heaven -
Do you want us to cry?
And everywhere the broken-hearted
On every lonely avenue
No-one could reach them
No-one but you
Chorus:
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
And life goes on -
Without you...
Another tricky situation
I get to drownin' in the blues
And I find myself thinkin'
Well, what would you do?
Yes, it was such an operation
Forever paying every due
Hell, you made a sensation
You found a way through - and
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
We'll remember -
Forever...
And now the party must be over
I guess we'll never understand
The sense of your leaving
Was in the way it was planned
And so we grace another table
And raise our glasses one more time
There's a face at the window
And I ain't never, never sayin' goodbye...
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
Cryin' for nothing
Cryin' for no-one

Flash - Ah - Saviour of the universe
Flash - Ah - He'll save ev'ry one of us
Seemingly there is no reason for these
Extraordinary intergalactical upsets (ha ha ha)
What's happening Flash?
Only Dr Hans Zarkov formerly at N A S A
Has provided any explanation
Flash - Ah - He's a miracle
This mornings unprecedented solar eclipse
Is no cause for alarm
Flash - Ah - King of the impossible
He's for ev'ry one of us
Stand for ev'ry one of us
He'll save with a mighty hand
Ev'ry man ev'ry woman ev'ry child
With a mighty Flash
General Kaka Flash Gordon approaching
What do you mean Flash Gordon approaching?
Open fire all weapons
Dispatch war rocket Ajax to bring back his body
Flash - Ah
Gordon's alive
Flash - Ah - He'll save ev'ry one of us
Just a man with a man's courage
He knows nothing but a man
But he can never fail
No one but the pure in heart
May find the golden grail oh oh oh oh
Flash Flash I love you
But we only have fourteen hours to save the Earth
Flash
When I'm gone
No need to wonder if I ever think of you
The same moon shines
The same wind blows
For both of us, and time is but a paper moon...
Be not gone
Though I'm gone
It's just as though I hold the flower that touches you
A new life grows
The blossom knows
There's no one else could warm my heart as much as you...
Be not gone
Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love, my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned
Teo torriatte konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki
Hear my song
Still think of me the way you've come to think of me
The nights grow long
But dreams live on
Just close your pretty eyes and you can be with me...
Dream on
Teo torriatte konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki
When I'm gone
They'll say we're all fools and we don't understand
Oh be strong
Don't turn your heart
We're all
You're all
For all
For always
Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love, my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Hey you boy, think that you know what you're doing
You think you're gonna set things to rights
You're just another, picture on a teenage wall
You're just another sucker ready for all
You gotta, Fight from the inside
Attack from th rear
Fight from the inside
You can't win with your hands tied
Fight from the inside
Fight from the inside
Right down the line -
Hey you boy think that you know what you're doing
You think that out in the streets is all free
You're just another, money-spinner tool
You're just another, fool
You gotta, Fight from the inside
Attack from the rear
Fight from the inside
You can't win with your hands tied
Fight from the inside
Fight from the inside
(Album: Live at Wembley '86, 1992)
"Okay, this is a Ricky Nelson song
I say hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
You passed me by one sunny day
Flashed those big brown eyes my way
Ooh, I wanted you forever more
Hey, I'm not one that get's around
Swear my feet stuck to the ground
And though I never did see you no more
Yeah neah
I said hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you
Hey, I knew Mary Lou we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
So hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
One more time
Yes, hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
Hey, wait a minute
One minute
Ah, I need my fucking water
I don't care, let's go
Right, give us the right key for fuck's sake..."
and then the sun turned into stone
I close my eyes
to reach home
when you were leaving
to be queen
I started yearning
for some sleep
"That's the way I am
Does anybody want to know?
This is the way I lead my life, you know
Wheelin' and dealin' and a little bit of stealin'
You know, that's the way I grew up
It's the only life I know
That's the way my mother told me
And they go
Stealin'
I gave you the key to my home
I left you alone
In charge of my heart
Hey, stealin'
You got me wheelin' and dealin'
Playin' with my feelin'
Right from the start
Can't afford to pay my rent
I had to use my common sense
To get some money I owe, uh oh
This guy said look in my head
Make some easy bread
Stealin' is the only way that I know oh
Stealin' hey
Only way that I know
Yeah that I'm stealin' baby stealin'
I gave you board and my own and my own
Left you alone
Now you're stealin' stealin' stealin'
Of my heart
You're my baby's heart
Uh huh eeeee

"Had to make do with a worn out rock and roll scene
The old bop is getting tired need a rest
Well you know what I mean
Fifty eight that was great
But it's over now and that's all
Something harder's coming up
Gonna really knock a hole in the wall
Gonna hit ya grab ya hard
Make you feel ten feet tall
Well I hope that this baby's gonna come along soon
You don't know it could happen any old rainy afternoon
With the temperature down
And the jukebox blowing no fuse
And my musical life's feeling
Like a long sunday school cruise
And you know there's one thing
Every single body could use
Yeah listen to me baby
Let me tell you what it's all about
Modern times rock and roll
Modern times rock and roll
Get your high heeled guitar style boots and some groovy clothes
Get a hair piece on your chest
And a ring through your nose
Find a nice little man who says
He's gonna make you a real big star
Stars in your eyes ants in your pants
Think you should go far
Everybody in this bum sucking world's
Gonna know who you are
Look out
When I'm gone
No need to wonder if I ever think of you
The same moon shines
The same wind blows
For both of us, and time is but a paper moon...
Be not gone
Though I'm gone
It's just as though I hold the flower that touches you
A new life grows
The blossom knows
There's no one else could warm my heart as much as
you...
Be not gone
Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love, my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned
Teo torriatte konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki
Hear my song
Still think of me the way you've come to think of me
The nights grow long
But dreams live on
Just close your pretty eyes and you can be with me...
Dream on
Teo torriatte konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki
When I'm gone
They'll say we're all fools and we don't understand
Oh be strong
Don't turn your heart
We're all
You're all
For all
For always
Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love, my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
White Queen lyrics
so sad her eyes
smiling dark eyes
so sad her eyes
as it began
on such a breathless night as this
upon my brow the lightest kiss
i walked alone
and all around the air did say
my lady soon will stir this way
in sorrow known
the white queen walks and
the night grows pale
stars of lovingmess in her hair
needing - unheard
pleading - one word
so sad my eyes
she cannot see
how did thee fare, what have thee seen
the mother of the willow green
i call her name
and 'neath her window have i stayed
i loved the footsteps that she made
and when she came
white queen how my heart did ache
and dry my lips no word would make
so still i wait
my goddess hear my darkest fear
i speak too late
it's for evermore that i wait
dear friend goodbye
no tears in my eyes
so sad it ends
Calling all boys
Calling all girls
Calling all people on streets
Around the world
Take this message
A message for you
This message is old yeah
This message is true
This message is
Love
Take a message of love
Far and near
Take a message of love
For all to hear
For all to hear
Some sleepless nights in wait for you
Some foreign presence you feel, comes creeping through
Some stream of hope
The whole world through
Spread like some silent disease
You'll get yours too
This message is
Love
Take a message of love
Far and near
Take a message of love
For all to hear
For all to hear
Calling all boys
Calling You (George Michael and Queen)
A desert road from Vegas to nowhere
Someplace better than were you've been
A coffee machine that needs some fixin'
In a little cafe just around the bend
Chorus:
I am calling you
Can't you hear me?
I am calling you
A hot dry wind blows right through me
The baby's crying and I can't sleep
But we both know that a change is coming
Come on closer, sweet release

Desert road from Vegas to nowhere

"Happy little day, Jimmy went away
Met his little Jenny on a public holiday
A happy pair they made, so decorously laid
'neath the gay illuminations all along the promenade
"It's so good to know there's still a little magic in the air
I'll weave my spell"
"Jenny will you stay - tarry with me pray
Nothing 'ere need come between us tell me love, what do you say ?"
"Oh no I must away to my mum in disarray
If my mother should discover how I spent my holiday
It would be of small avail to talk of magic in the air
I'll say farewell"
O rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still
O lady moon, shine down a little people magic if you will
Jenny pines away, writes a letter everyday
"We must ever be together, nothing can my love erase"
"Oh no I'm compromised, I must apologise
If my lady should discover how I spent my holidays..."
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
CHORUS
Bring back, bring back
Bring back that Leroy Brown - yeah
Bring back, bring back
Little short skirt with a big attitude
She wants to be a model
Wants to be on the tube
Yeah,
It's one thing or another
Shes a trouble trouble
Watch out if your near
She can bring you to tears
Shes got two boyfriends
And three wannabees
They follow her around like shes Aphrodite
Shes number one rated
But shes already jaded
And shes following the trends
In her mercedes bends
Everyone wants to know her name
Walking down the hall shes every guys dream
I hate the homecoming queen
I'm pretty damn sure
That she can't stand me
She thinks shes on the cover of a magazine
I hate the homecoming queen
Tonight
That's right
Non fat sugar free mochachinies
She says "give it to me now you can keep the receipts"
Drinking one after the other
Shes a trouble trouble
Tossing back her hair and she just don't care
Everyone wants to play her game
Walking down the street shes every guys dream
I hate the homecoming queen
I'm pretty damn sure
That she can't stand me
She thinks shes on the cover of a magazine
I hate the homecoming queen
Tonight
Thats right
She gets everything she asks for
Buts shes some how always wanting more
Little short skirt with a big attitude
She wants to be a model
Wants to be on the tube
Yeah,
It's one thing or another
Shes trouble trouble
Watch out if your near
She can bring you to tears
I hate the homecoming queen
I'm pretty damn sure
That she can't stand me
She thinks shes on the cover of a magazine
I hate the homecoming queen
I hate the homecoming queen
I'm pretty damn sure
That she can't stand me
She thinks shes on the cover of a magazine
I hate the homecoming queen
Tonight
Torn apart
Begging the forgiveness of your heart
No words can provide
Ours is a deeper truth inside
You called me out
Now all the tides are turning us to doubt
I'm dreaming
I'm drowning
I'm wide awake
Breathing in and breathing out
The beast within the priest without
A lonely voice
And I need to make it over the wall tonight, my love
Blown away
Blinded in the brightness of our day
No lens can provide
Ours is a vision deep inside
Still you call me out
Now the tides are turning us to doubt
I'm dreaming
I'm drowning
I'm wide awake
Breathing in and breathing out
The beast within the priest without
A lonely voice
And I need to make it over the wall tonight, my love
In the mirror glass
Watch the world drift past too fast
And deep inside
You know I'd die
The perfect love
The meaning of the poem is true
It imitates your life
The wind blows over the wall tonight, my love
I'm dreaming
I'm drowning
I'm wide awake
Breathing in and breathing out
The beast within the priest without
A lonely voice
And I need to make it over the wall tonight, my love
I'm dreaming
I'm drowning
I'm wide awake
Breathing in and breathing out
The beast within the priest without
A lonely voice
And I need to make it over the wall tonight, my love

Fab!
You might believe in heaven
I would not care to say
For every star in heaven
There's a sad soul here today
Wake up in the morning with a good face
Stare at the moon all day
Lonely as a whisper on a star chase
Does anyone care anyway
For all the prayers in heaven
So much of life's this way
Did we leave our way behind us
Such a long long way behind us
Who knows when, now who knows where
Where the light of day will find us?
Look for the day
Take heart, my friend, we love you
Though it seems like you're alone
A million lights above you
Smile down upon your home
Hurry put your troubles in a suitcase
Come let the new child play
Lonely as a whisper on a star chase
I'm leaving here, I'm long away
For all the stars in heaven
I would not live
I could not live this way
Did we leave our way behind us
Such a long way behind us
Leave it for some hopeless lane
Such a long long way
such a long long way
such a long long away
I'm looking for
do you mean it
do you mean it
do you mean it
why don't you mean it
why do i follow you and where do you go
you've never seen nothing like it no never in your life
like going up to heaven and then coming back alive
let me tell you all about it -
and the world will so allow it
ooh give me a little time to choose
water babies singing in a lily-pool delight
blue powder monkies praying in the dead of night
here comes the black queen, poking in the pile
fie-fo the black queen, marching single file
take this, take that, bring them down to size
put them in the cellar with the naughty boys
a little nigger sugar then a rub-a dub-a baby oil
black on, black on ever finger nail and toe
we've only begun - begun
make this make that, keep making all that noise
now i've got a belly-full
you can be my sugar-baby, you can be my honey chile, yes
a voice from behind me reminds me
spread out your wings you are an angel
remember to deliver with the speed of light
a little bit of love and joy
everything you do bears a will and a why and a wherefore
a little bit of love and joy
in each and every soul lies a man
and very soon he'll deceive and discover
but even till the end of his life, he'll bring a little love
i reign with my left hand, i rule with my right
i'm lord of all darkness, i'm queen of the night
i've got the power - now do the march of the black queen
my life is in your hands, i'll fo and i'll fie
i'll be what you make me, i'll do what you like
i'll be a bad boy - i'll be your bad boy
i'll do the march of the black queen
walking true to style
she's vulgar 'buse and vile
fie-fo the black queen tattos all her pies
she boils and she bakes and she never dots her "i's"
forget your singalongs and your lullabies
surrender to the city of the fireflies
dance with the devil in beat with the band
to hell with all of you hand in hand
Hitman
Written by Queen
Here we go, yeah, oh yeah yeah yeah yeah

Ain't no escaping
Don't run and hide

Hitman
Now don't you cry
I'm just it man
You might get fried
Gun in my pocket

I'll be your hitman - I'm a fool for your love
I'm a head shredder
That's better
Baby baby baby
I'm a hitman - hitman - hitman
Aargh

Struggle with the beast - what a thief, what a pest
Come back mother, nuke that sucker
Yeah - yeah - yeah
Who's that man talking about ?
Waste that brother
Alright
Ooh
That's the way to do it
Haa ha
I'm the hitman, I'm your prize
But this hitman

Love me baby
Don't be so cool
Love me love me baby
I've been to the hitman school

You're gonna make my day
Gonna blow you away
When the fun begins
Hitman
Are you ready for the sting
Gonna waste that thing
Hitman, hitman is king
Yeah
Go go
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh hitman hitman
Yeah yeah hitman
I've been there before
A long time ago
But this time I wear no sandals
Ages past I gave all you people
Food and water
Three feet tall, so very small
I'm no trouble
I bring thunder and lightning
Sun and the rain
For all the people in the land
A message of love
I bring you from up above
All you children gather around
Come join your hands and sing along
They call me mad the swine
I guess I'm mad the swine
I've come to save you
Save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
I walk upon the water
Just as before
I help the meek and the mild
The believers and the blind
And all the creatures great and small
Let me take you to the river
Without a fall
Then one day you'll realise
You're all the same within his eyes
That's all I've got to say
Just like before
They call me mad the swine
Mad the swine
Come to save you
Save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord
Don't ever fail me
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
Come to save you
Save you
Mad the swine
Mad the swine
So all you people gather around
Hold out your hands and praise the lord

"I'm taking my ride with destiny
Willing to play my part
Living with painful memories
Loving with all my heart
Made in heaven, made in heaven
It was all meant to be, yeah
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what they say
Can't you see
That's what everybody says to me
Can't you see
Oh I know, I know, I know that it's true
Yes it's really meant to be
Deep in my heart
I'm having to learn to pay the price
They're turning me upside down
Waiting for possibilities
Don't see too many around
Made in heaven, made in heaven
It's for all to see
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says
Everybody says to me
It was really meant to be
Oh can't you see
Yeah everybody, everybody says
Yes it was meant to be
Yeah yeah
When stormy weather comes around
It was made in heaven
When sunny skies break through behind the clouds
I wish it could last forever, yeah
Wish it could last forever, forever
Made in heaven
I'm playing my role in history
Looking to find my goal
Taking in all this misery
But giving it all my soul
Made in heaven, made in heaven
It was all meant to be
Made in heaven, made in heaven
That's what everybody says
Wait and see, it was really meant to be
So plain to see
Yeah, everybody, everybody, everybody tells me so
Yes it was plain to see, yes it was meant to be
Written in the stars...
Written in the stars...
Love of my life - you've hurt me
You've broken my heart and now you leave me
Love of my life can't you see
Bring it back, bring it back
Don't take it away from me, because you don't know -
What it means to me
Love of my life don't leave me
You've taken my love (all of my love) and now desert me
Love of my life can't you see (please bring it)
Bring it back, bring it back
Don't take it away from me, because you don't know -
What it means to me
You will remember -
When this is blown over
And everything's all by the way
(Ooh yeah)When I grow older
I will be there at your side to remind you
How I still love you - I still love you
Hurry back, hurry back
Don't take it away from me
Because you don't know what it means to me -
Love of my life
Machines...
It's a machines world, Don't tell me I ain't got no soul
When the machines take over,
It ain't no place for rock and roll
They tell me I don't care, But deep inside I'm just a man
They freeze me, they burn me, They squeeze me, they stress me
With smoke blackened pistons of steel they compress me
But no-one, but no-one but, no-one can wrest me away
Back to humans
We have no disease no trouble of mind
No thank you or please no regard for the time
We never cry we never retreat
We have no conception of love or defeat
What's that machine noise? It's bytes and megachips for tea
It's that machine boys, With random access memory
Never worry, never mind, Not for money not for gold
Its software, is hardware, its heartbeat, is time-share
Its midwife's a disc drive, its sex life, is quantised
It's self-perpetuating a parahumanoidarianised
Back to humans, Back to humans
Back to machines
Machines...
Living in a new world, Thinking in the past
Living in a new world, How you gonna last?
Machine world, Back to humans
It's a machines world, Thinking in the past (back to humans)
Living in a new world, How you gonna last?
Machine world, It's a machine's world
Back to humans, Living in a new world
How you gonna last? Machine world
It's a machine's world

Was It All Worth It
Written by Queen
Oooh, oooh
Ah ah ah ah ah oh
What is there left for me to do in this life
Did I achieve what I had set in my sights
Am I a happy man, or is this sinking sand
Was it all worth it, was it all worth it
Yeah, now hear my story, let me tell you about it
We bought a drum kit, I blew my own trumpet
Played the circuit, thought we were perfect
Was it all worth it, ooh giving (hey yeah) all my heart and soul and
Staying up all night, was it all worth it (hey yeah)
Living breathing rock 'n' roll (ah), a Godforsaken life
Was it all worth it, was it all worth it (hey) all these years
Put down our money without counting the cost
It didn't matter if we won - if we lost
Yes we were vicious, yes we could kill
Yes we were hungry, yes we were brill - ha ha haa
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
We served a purpose, like a bloody circus
We were so dandy (yeah) we love you madly
Was it all worth it
Living breathing rock 'n' roll, this Godforsaken life
Was it all worth it yeah, was it all worth it
When the hurly burly's done
We went to bali, saw God and dali
So mystic, surrealistic
Was it all worth it yeah yeah, giving all my heart and soul
Staying up all night, was it all worth it
Ooh living breathing rock 'n' roll this never ending fight
Was it all worth it, was it all worth it
Yes it was a worthwhile experience
Ha ha ha ha haa
It was worth it

Gotta hit that latitude - babe
[CHORUS REPEAT]
Big bad Leroy Brown he got no common

He got no brains but he sure gotta lot of style
Can't stand no more in this here jail

Gotta get out the heat, step into the shade
Gotta get me there dead or alive - babe

Big Mama Lulu Belle she had a nervous breakdown

But she met him down at the station
Put a shot gun to his head
And unless I be mistaken
This is what she said
"Big bad, big boy, big bad Leroy Brown
I'm gonna get that cutie pie"
I make it half past six you come at seven
Always trying to keep me, hanging around
You little spoilt thing, girl you kept me waiting
Never contemplating my point of view
This comes as no surprise
I'm a fool, for I believed your lies
But now I've seen thruogh your disguise
Who needs, well I don't need, who needs you?
Oh I believed you
Went on my knees to you
How I trusted you
But you turned me down
But it's dog eat dog in this rat race
And it leaves you bleeding lying flat on your face
Reaching out, reaching out for helping hand
Where is that helping hand?
How I was pushed around
"Don't let it get you down"
You walked all over me
"But don't you ever give in"
Taking one step forward, slipping two steps back
There's an empty feeling that you can't forget
Reaching out, reaching out for a helping hand
When I met you, you were always charming
Couldn't sleep at night 'till you were mine
You were oh so so sophisticated
Never interested in what I'd say
I had to swallow my pride
So naive, you took me fo a ride
But now I'm the one to decide
Song Duration 1:00
Written by Brian May.
Instrumental
Don't slam the door, on your way out
Don't leave without saying goodbye.
Another long distance night alone,
you leave me wanting, always leave me wanting more.
Last word today, coming home to stay?
Wouldn't that be nice, for a while?
But now my take-out food is growing cold,
and the candle's burned a hole in the floor.
And I'm still waiting for the ring of the phone.
I'm all alone
It's just another rainy night, without you.
Guess I'll leave a light on for you.
It's just another rainy night, without you.
Listen, there's a foghorn blowing
from the coast tonight
Remember making love in the rain?
Strange how laughter looks like crying with no sound
Raindrops taste like tears without the pain.
I'm not much without you, can't leave
if I wanted to. maybe that's why you stay around
But tonight I'll sit here tending the fire
and pace the floor one hundred times in an hour.
And check the voice-mail for a message you've called.
I'm all alone
It's just another rainy night, without you.
Waiting by the phone. Alone.
It's just another rainy night, without you.
Guess I'll leave a light on for you.
I know I've said it before
hate the sound of the closing door
and your footsteps walking away.
(solo)
But now my take-out food is growing cold,
and the candle's burned a hole in the floor.
And I'm still waiting for the ring of the phone.v
I'm all alone
It's just another rainy night, without you.
Waiting by the phone. Alone.
And it's another rainy night, without you.
Guess I'll leave a light on for you.
It's just another rainy night, another rainy night,
another rainy night without you.

"Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
She lives in a luxury apartment in the heart of town
I live in the country and my house is tumbling down
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
I met her in her neighbourhood, I was just passing through
One look was all it took, yeah, one look or two
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love
You got my name, you got my number
You got my number, you got my name
Now I'm gonna settle down, get myself a wife or two
No more of this running around like I used to do
Call me if you need my love, baby
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love, baby
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love, baby
Call me if you need my love
Call me if you need my love, baby
I've paid my dues
Time after time
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through
(And we mean to go on and on and on and on)
We are the champions my friends
And we'll keep on fightin' till the end
We are the champions, We are the champions
No time for losers 'cause we are the champions
Of the world
I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune and everything that
goes with it
I thank you all
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
And I ain't gonna lose
We are the champions my friends
And we'll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'cause we are the champions
Of the world
We are the champions my friends
And we'll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
So sad her eyes, smiling dark eyes
So sad her eyes, as it began
On such a breathless night as this, upon my brow the lightest kiss
I walked alone...
And all around the air did sway, my lady soon will stir this way
In sorrow known, the white queen walks
And the night grows pale, stars of lovingness in her hair
Heeding, unheard, pleading one word
So sad, my eyes, she cannot see
How did thee fare what have thee seen
The mother of the willow green, I call her name
And 'neath her window have I stayed, I loved the footsteps that she made
And when she came, white queen how my heart did ache
And dry my lips no word would make, so still I wait
My goddess hear my darkest fear, I speak too late
It's for evermore that I wait
Dear friend goodbye, no tears in my eyes
So sad, it ends as it began
Gone and got himself elected president
(We want Leroy for President)
Next time, you gotta hit a bitty baddy
weather
This time, like a shimmy, shammy leather
He's a big boy, bad boy, Leroy
I don't care where you get him from
Bring that big bad Leroy back
(Album: Live at Wembley '86, 1992)

"Tell me something that'll ease my pain
I am living life in vain
Crying doesn't help me anymore
Tell me something that'll ease my mind
I am walking the line
Trying doesn't get my anywhere
I wander through the night
All the stars are shining bright
Searching for a guiding light
I wander through the night
Tell me something 'cause I need to know
Can you teach me how to live
How to understand how to love and how to give
Anger burns in bitterness and fills me up inside
I can't face it and there's no place I can hide
I wander through the night
All the stars are shining bright
Searching for a guiding light
I wander through the night
Tell me something 'cause I need to know
Can you teach me how to live
How to understand how to love and how to give
Anger burns in bitterness and fills me up inside
Without your love there's nowhere I can hide
I wander through the night
All the stars are shining bright
Searching for a guiding light
She came without a farthing
a babe without a name
so much ado about nothing
is what she'd try to say
So much ado my lover
so many games we played
through every fleeted summer
through every precious day
All dead
all dead
all the dreams we had
and I wonder why I still live on
all dead
all dead
and alone I'm spared
my sweeter half instead
all dead.........and gone...........all dead..............
All dead
all dead
at the rainbow's end
and still I hear her own sweet song
all dead
all dead
take me back again
you know my little friend's
all dead.....and gone.......all dead.......and gone
Her ways are always with me
I wander all the while
but please you must forgive me
I am old but still a child
All dead all dead
but I should not grieve
in time it comes to everyone
all dead all dead
but in hope I breathe
of course I don't believe
Action
This street honey is a mean street
Living in this street honey needs a mean streak
We've got criminals living in this street
But there's a heartbeat pulse that keeps on pumping
Like a jukebox playing the same dead record
Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring
I gotta feeling, this world is using me
This town honey is a dead town
Living in this town honey is a let-down
Coming to this town honey is a showdown
But there's a heartbeat pulse that keeps on pumping
Some sunshine ray through a crack in a shutter
Or a sight of a light at
The end of a tunnel
Still there's a feeling, this world is using me
Action this day
Action this night
We've gotta learn to learn to liveYou can't say it ain't right
Action this day
Action this night
You've got the power, you've got the power
You've got the power to love and to live
You can't say it ain't right
Your mind honey is a bleak place
Living in your mind's living in a blank space
Your mind is coming from a rat race
But there's a heartbeat pulse that keeps on pumping
Like a jukebox playing the same dead record
Or a radio in the corner keeps blaring
I gotta feeling that just won't quit, this world is using me
Action this day
Action this night
We've gotta learn to learn to live
We can't say it ain't right
Action this day
Action this night
You've got the power, you've got the power
You've got the power to love, to live
You can't say it ain't right
Action
It's so easy, but I can't do it
So risky - But I gotta chance it
It's so funny, there's nothing to laugh about
My money, that's all you wanna talk about
I can see what you want me to be
But I'm no fool
It's in the lap of the Gods
I can see what you want me to be
But I'm no fool
No beginning, there's no ending
There's no meaning in my pretending
Believe me, life goes on and on and on
Forgive me when I ask you where do I belong
You say I can't set you free from me
But that's not true
It's in the lap of the Gods
I can see what you want me to be
But I'm no fool
It's in the lap of the Gods
Wo wo la la la wo
Wo wo la la
Wah wah ooh
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody
We might as well be deaf and dumb and blind
I know that sounds unkind
But it seems to me we've not listened to
Or spoken about it at all
The fact that time is running out for us all
Time waits for nobody
Time waits for no-one
We've got to build this world together
Or we'll have no more future at all
Because time - it waits for nobody
You don't need me to tell you what's gone wrong (gone wrong gone wrong)
You know what's going on
But it seems to me we've not cared enough
Or confided in each other at all (confided in each other at all)
It seems that we've all got our backs against the wall
(Time) Time waits for nobody
(Time) waits for no-one
We've got to trust in one another
Or there'll be no more future at all
(Time)
Yeah - Time waits for nobody
No no - Time don't wait for no-one
Let's learn to be friends with one another
Or there'll be no more future at all
Time (time) time (time) waits for nobody waits for nobody
Time time time time waits for nobody at all
Time waits for nobody - yeah
Time don't wait - waits for no-one
Let us free this world for ever
And build a brand new future for us all
Time waits for nobody nobody nobody
For no-one
Guilt stains on my pillow
Blood on my terraces
Torsos in my closet
Shadows from my past life is real
Life is real, life is real, so real
Sleeping is my leisure
Waking up in a minefield
Dream is just a pleasure dome
Love is a roulette wheel - life is real
Life is real, life is real, oh yeah
Success is my breathing space
I brought it to myself
I will price it
I will cash it
I can take it or leave it
Loneliness is my hiding place
Breastfeeding myself
What more can I say
I have swallowed the bitter pill
I can taste it, I can taste it
Life is real, life is real, life is real
Music will be my mistress
Loving like a whore
Lennon is a genius
Living in every pore
Life is real, life is real, life is real, so real
Life is cruel
Life is a bitch

When the moons rises
The dogs will howl
Look out of your window
I'll be on the prowl
I'm not usually
A gambling man
But oh I just wanna
Hold up my hands
And say I'm
Taking a chance on you love
Woah I'm taking a chance on you love
I'm not superstitious
And I don't wear no charm
I don't carry my heart on the sleeve of my arm
Seven years of bad luck
Please don't worry me
'Cause when I look in the mirror
Here's the future I see
I'm taking a chance on you love
Woah, I'm taking a chance on you love
Place your bets, Better yet
Don't forget, What I said
Roll the dice, Spin the wheel
Always remember, You've got to keep it real
Don't believe in voodoo
Black magic was never my style
But I believe you do
And it won't take much time
To gather the portions
That weave your magic spell
The moon on the ocean
Has a secret to tell
But anyway I'm
Taking a chance on you love
Woah I'm taking a chance on you love
Woah I'm taking a chance on you love
I am your
queen
Given to me at birth by virtue of my poverty
I was made for you to rule benevolently
I'll never ask you to kneel you've had enough
oppression
I've accepted my place very reluctantly
Everyone who's ever felt the burning of awareness
Has journeyed to my kingdom looking for acceptance
Give me all your tired because I am your
queen
I'm like Lady Jane Grey appointed to my post
By reasons of default I am your humble host
It's not like I can heal I'm not the medication
Just a symbol of hurt
I give you dedication
What am I to do with all your broken hearts?
And who will take care of me royalty can come apart
So give me all your tired because I am your
queen -
come unto me, find your reprieve
I'll be your ...
commute all your sentences, give you charity, full
immunity and love
I just woke up one day and I had a city of damaged
goods
What is it about me, that brings all the broken souls
to my front door, thinking I mirror their lives?
Well, if I did, I can't any longer.
And here am I today sitting on my throne
Nobody serves me I govern all alone
It isn't fair I'm highly under-qualified
So give me all your tired
And I'll be your
queen
I'll be your
queen
I'll be your ...
I'll pardon your ills and your crimes, my bloody arms
give you sanctuary.
I'll be your queen come unto me
Yesterday my life was in ruins
Now today I know what I'm doing
Got a feeling I should be doing all right
Doing all right
Where will I be this time tomorrow?
Jump for joy and sinking in sorrow
Anyway I should be doing all right
Doing all right
Sitting waiting for the sign
Looking round for the words to say
Should be waiting for the skies to clear
If there were time in all the world
Sitting waiting for the sign
Anyway I got to hide away
Hide away
Yesterday my life was in ruins
Now today I know what I'm doing
Got a feeling I should be doing all right
Doing all right
This thing called love I just can't handle it
this thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Crazy little thing called love
This (This Thing) called love
(Called Love)
It cries (Like a baby)
In a cradle all night
It swings (Woo Woo)
It jives (Woo Woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish,
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love
There goes my baby
She knows how to Rock n' roll
She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat
I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my track's
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready
Crazy little thing called love
I gotta be cool relax, get hip
Get on my track's
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motor bike
Until I'm ready (Ready Freddie)
Crazy little thing called love
This thing called love I just can't handle it
this thing called love I must get round to it
I ain't ready
Sometimes I get to feelin'
I was back in the old days long ago
When we were kids, when we were young
Things seemed so perfect you know?
The days were endless, we were crazy we were young
The sun was always shinin' we just lived for fun
Sometimes it seems like lately I just don't know
The rest of my life's been just a show
Those were the days of our lives
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing is true
When I look and I find, I still love you
You can't turn back the clock, you can't turn back the tide
Ain't that a shame?
I'd like to go back one time on a roller coaster ride
When life was just a game
No use sitting and thinkin' on what you did
When you can lay back and enjoy it through your kids
Sometimes it seems like lately I just don't know
Better sit back and go with the flow
'Cos these are the days of our lives
They've flown in the swiftness of time
These days are all gone now but some things remain
When I look and I find no change
Those were the days of our lives, yeah
The bad things in life were so few
Those days are all gone now but one thing's still true
When I look and I find, I still love you
Where did I go wrong?
Is it something that that I said?
My opinions went unnoticed
My emotions overfed
So what if I change the phase
What dreams shouldn't I've liked
I'm supporting my ambitions
My soul, my light
Got to pass the intersection
I went left, when you went right
Delivering a purpose, I'm living out my life
Just me and my decision, a million reasons why I had to fight
Just me and my decision, a million reasons
I'm a girl, I'm a lady, I'm a woman, I'm a queen
I'm everything I can dream
I'm a girl, I'm a lady, I'm a woman, I'm a queen
I'm everything I can dream
Everything I can be
Everything that I see
Everything that completes
Everything, I am me
I'm a girl, I'm a lady, I'm a woman, I'm a queen
I'm everything I can dream
I'm a girl, I'm a lady, I'm a woman, I'm a queen
I'm everything I can dream
Everything I can be
Everything that I see
Everything that completes
Head strong and steadfast junkies
All barter for the clean
They all wait in their plastic lines
To find what color means
'Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do know what I mean
'Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do know what I mean
I spoke to a girl by the back door
She said she?d do anything just to meet you
You know I've seen that smile before
Just in time for a knee to hit the ground
Little girls dressed up like French whores
In velvet paintings, wide eyed, long nails
They all wanna live the fairy tale
'Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do know what I mean
'Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do know what I mean
Did they tear you all up inside?
Did they take away your pride?
And she cried herself to sleep that night
'Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do know what I mean
'Cause they all wanna be queen
And you do and you do and you do
Know what I mean
Queen, wanna be queen
Queen, wanna be queen
Queen, they all wanna be queen
Immmer wenn ich sie gebraucht war sie niemals da...Shizi! Du warst nie für michdaaaaaaaaa!Nie warst du für mich daaaaa.Sie war für mich der Sommer, Xaivier Naido ich fick dir in deinen Arsch
I Guess We're Falling Out
This track, written by Brian, is an excellent song,
which would have fitted well on either 'A Kind Of
Magic' or 'The Miracle', for which it was intended. I
have two copies of this demo; one seems genuine, the
other adds parts of other tracks. Both versions begin
with the beat from 'My Baby Loves Me'.
Version 1:
This version contains the song for 2:08 before a slow
instrumental section and a piano outro, which then cuts
off very abruptly. Length 2:36.
Version 2:
This version contains the same 2:08 opening section as
the above edit, then cuts into the 'Hang On There'
demo, then repeats various sections, including one of
the verses in full, before ending with the drum crash
from the end of 'Hammer To Fall'. Length 4:30.
Lyrics: (Lyrics in red are added to Version 2)
You stabbed your knife right in my back
Was it just something that I might have said
Does this mean we're falling out
I guess this means that our love has fallen out
If you wanna make a go
(Ad-libbed lyrics) I will stay
I guess we're falling out
It was just one gone and gone away
I guess we're falling out
Guess we're falling out
Da, da, da, I wanna stay
(An ad-libbed verse)
I guess we're falling out
It was just one long race
I guess we're falling out
Falling out
Yeah, yeah, yeah, falling out, falling out, yeah
Two, three, four
(Ad-libbed lyrics) hey
Make it a whole, a whole, a hey
(Ad-libbed lyrics) yeah
On, and on, and on babe
Ohh
Yeah, yeah, it's a
Falling out
(Ad-libbed lyrics)
(Ad-libbed lyrics) falling out
Hey
Make it a whole, a whole, a hey
(Ad-libbed lyrics) yeah
On, and on, and on babe
Ohh
Yeah, yeah it's a
Falling out, falling out, yeah
Two, three, four
I guess we're falling out
It was just one gone and gone away
I guess we're falling out
Guess we're falling out
Da, da, da, I wanna stay

There's no living in my life anymore
The seas have gone dry and the rain stopped falling
Please don't you cry anymore
Can't you see
Listen to the breeze, whisper to me please
Don't send me to the path of nevermore
Even the valleys below
Where the rays of the sun were so warm and tender
Now haven't anything to grow
Can't you see
Why did you have to leave me
Why did you deceive me
You send me to the path of nevermore
When you say you didn't love me anymore
Nevermore
Nevermore
Guilt stains on my pillow
Blood on my terraces
Torsos in my closet
Shadows from my past life is real
Life is real, life is real, so real
Sleeping is my leisure
Waking up in a minefield
Dream is just a pleasure dome
Love is a roulette wheel - life is real
Life is real, life is real, oh yeah
Success is my breathing space
I brought it to myself
I will price it
I will cash it
I can take it or leave it
Loneliness is my hiding place
Breastfeeding myself
What more can I say
I have swallowed the bitter pill
I can taste it, I can taste it
Life is real, life is real, life is real
Music will be my mistress
Loving like a whore
Lennon is a genius
Living in every pore
Life is real, life is real, life is real, so real
Life is cruel
Life is a bitch
Life is real - so real
Music is playing in the darkness
And a lantern goes swinging by
Shadows flickering
My heart's jittering
Just you and I
Not tonight
Come tomorrow
When everything's sunny and bright
No No No
Come tomorrow
Cos then we'll be waiting for the moonlight
We'll go walking in the moonlight
Walking in the moonlight
Laughter ringing in the darkness
People drinking for days gone by
Time don't mean a thing
When you're by my side
Please stay a while
You know I never could foresee the future years
You know I never could see
where life was leading me
But will we be together for ever
What will be my love, can't you see that I just don't know
No no not tonight
Come tomorrow
When everything's gonna be alright
Wait and see
If tomorrow
We'll be as happy as we're feeling tonight
We'll go walking in the moonlight
Walking in the moonlight
I can hear the music in the darkness
Floating softly to where to lie
No more questions now
Let's enjoy tonight
Just you and I
Just you and I
Well you're just 17 and all you wanna do is disappear
You know what I mean there's a lot of spacebetween your ears
The way that you touch don't feel nu nothin'
Hey hey hey hey, it was the D.N.A.
Hey hey hey hey, that made me this way
Do you know, do you know, do you know, just how I feel
Do you know, do you know, do you know, just how I feel
Sheer heart attack
Sheer heart attack
Real cardiac
I feel so inar - ticulate
Gotta feelin', gotta feelin', gotta feelin', like a paralyse
It ain't no, it ain't no, it ain't no, it ain't no surprise
Turn on the TV lit it drip right down in your eyes
Hey hey hey hey, it was the D.N.A.
Hey hey hey hey. that made me this way

Sheer heart attack
Sheer heart attack
Real cardiac
Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Pretending I'm doing well
My need is such I pretend too much
I'm lonely but no one can tell
Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Adrift in a world of my own
I play the game but to my real shame
You've left me to dream all alone
Too real is this feeling of make believe
Too real when I feel what my heart can't conceal
Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're still around
Yeah oh too real when I feel
What my heart can't conceal
Oh yes I'm the great pretender
Just laughing and gay like a clown
I seem to be what I'm not you see
I'm wearing my heart like a crown
Pretending that you're
Pretending that you're still around

Another party's over
And I'm left cold sober
My baby left me for somebody new
I don't wanna talk about it
Want to forget about it
I'm intoxicated with that special brew
So come and get me, let me
Get in that sinking feeling
That says my heart is on an all time low - so
Don't expect me
To behave perfectly
And wear that sunny smile
My guess is I'm in for a cloudy and overcast
Don't try and stop me
'Cause I'm heading for that stormy weather soon
I'm causing a mild sensation
With this new occupation
I'm permanently glued
To this extraordinary mood, so now moveover
And let me take over
With my melancholy blues
I'm causing a mild sensation
With this new occupation
I'm in the news
I'm just getting used to my new exposure
So come into my enclosure
And meet my melancholy blues
(Album: Made in Heaven, 1995)
"This is where we are today
People going separate ways
This is the way things are now
In disarray
I read it in the papers
There's death on every page
Oh Lord, I thank the Lord above
My life has been saved, eaah eah
Here we go
Tellin' lies
Here we go - here we go
We're right back where we started from
People going separate ways
This is the way things are now
In disarray - hey
I read it in the papers
There's death on every page
Aah - oh Lord, I thank you from above
My life has been saved
Ooh ooh ooh ooh my life
My life has been saved
Ooh my my life
In the land where horses born with eagle wings
And honey bees have lost their stings
There's singing forever to you
Lions den with fallow deer
And rivers made from wines so clear
Flow on and on forever
Dragons fly like sparrows thru' the air
And baby lambs where Samson dares
To go on on on on on on
My fairy king can see things
He rules the air and turns the tides
That are not there for you and me
Ooh yeah he guides the winds
My fairy king can do right and nothing wrong
Then came man to savage in the night
To run like thieves and to kill like knives
To take away the power from the magic hand
To bring about the ruin to the promised land
They turn the milk into sour
Like the blue on the blood of my veins
Why can't you see it
Fire burnin' in hell with the cry of a streaming pain
Son of heaven set me free and let me go
Sea turns dry no salt from sand
Seasons find no helping hand
Teeth don't shine like pearls for poor man's eye, no more.
Someone someone has drained the colour from my wings
Broken my fairy circle ring
And shamed the king in all his pride
Changed the winds and wronged the tides
Mother mercury
Look what they've done to me
My baby
My baby does
My baby does me right
my baby does
my baby does me
my baby does me right..
My lady
understands
understands me right
she understands
shes understands me
understands me right
My baby cares
She really cares
and she knows whats really right for me
does me good, then she hurts me so,
she winds me up
then lets me go
turns me on
then tells me no
she's just a pussycat
My baby loves me
My baby loves me
My baby cuffs me
one day she tells me that she cares
another day she don't love me
she really really does me...
i mean do you believe this,
do you??
oooh aaah
She really really really really really really

"I don't want to sleep with you
I don't need the passion too
I don't want a stormy affair
To make me feel my life is heading somewhere
All I want is the comfort and care
Just to know that my woman gives me sweet -
Mother love ah ha
I've walked too long in this lonely lane
I've had enough of this same old game
I'm a man of the world and they say that I'm strong
But my heart is heavy, and my hope is gone
Out in the city, in the cold world outside
I don't want pity, just a safe place to hide
Mama please, let me back inside
I don't want to make no waves
But you can give me all the love that I crave
I can't take it if you see me cry
I long for peace before I die
All I want is to know that you're there
You're gonna give me all your sweet -
Mother love ah ha (mother love)
My body's aching, but I can't sleep
My dreams are all the company I keep
Got such a feeling as the sun goes down
I'm coming home to my sweet -
Mother love
(Mother love mother love love love love love)
God works in mysterious ways
Eeeeh dop, de dop, dep dop
If you're feeling tired and only
Uninspired and lonely
If you're thinking
How the days seem long
All you're given
Is what you've been given
A thousand times before
Just more more
More of that jazz
More
No more of that jazz
Gimme no more
No more of that jazz
Only football
Gives us thrills
Rock and roll just
Pays the bills
Only our team
Is the real team
Bring out the dogs
Get on your feet
Lie on the floor
Kinda think I've heard that line before
Just more
More of that jazz
More
No more of that jazz
Gimme no more
No more of that jazz
Oh no matter
Fool got no business hanging round and tellin' lies
Bicycle races are coming your way
If you can't beat 'em join 'em
Fun it
Oh you gonna let it all hang out
Fat bottomed girls you make the rocking world go round
Oh Oh people of earth
Listen to the warning
The seer he said
Beware the storm that gathers here
Listen to the wise man.
I dreamed I saw on a moonlit stair
Spreading his hands on the multitude there
A man who cried for a love gone stale
And ice cold hearts of charity bare.
I watched as fear took the old man's gaze
Hopes of the young in troubled graves
I see no day, I heard him say
So grey is the face of every mortal.
Oh Oh people of earth
Listen to the warning
The prophet he said
For soon the cold of night will fall
Summoned by your own hand.
Oh Oh children of the land
Quicken to the new life
Take my hand
Fly and find the new green bough
Return like the white dove.
He told of death as a bone white haze
Taking the lost and the unloved babe
Late too late all the wretches run
These kings of beasts now counting their days.
From Mother's love is the son estranged
Married his own, his precious gain
The earth will shake, in two will break
And death all around will be your dowry
Oh Oh people of the earth
Listen to the warning
The seer he said
For those who hear and mark my words
Listen to the good man, oh oh aw aw
And two by two
My human zoo
They'll be running for to come
Running for to come out of the rain
Oh flee for your life,
Who heed me not
Let all your treasure make you
Oh fear for your life,
Deceive you not
The fires of hell will take you
Should death await you.
(Many awesome vocal overlays)
God give you grace to purge this place
And peace all around will be your fortune
Oh Oh children of the land,
Love is still the answer take my hand
The vision fades, the voice I hear
Don't listen to the mad man
But still I fear and still I dare not
Laugh at the mad man
(Album: Flash Gordon, 1980)
"The Ring (Hypnotic Seduction Of Dale)
Track 4. Written by Freddie Mercury. Album Version 0:58
Dialogue:
Don't touch me now, don't hold me now
Don't break the spell darling, now you are near
Look in my eyes and speak to me,
the special promises I long to hear
Las palabras de amor Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor Love me slow and gently
One foolish world, so many souls
Senselessly hurled through the never ending cold
And all for fear, and all for greed
Speak any tongue, but for God's sake we need
Las palabras de amor, Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor, Let me know this night and evermore
This room is bare, This night is cold
We're far apart and I'm growing old
But while we live, We'll meet again
So then my love, We may whisper once more
It's you I adore
Las palabras de amor, Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor, Touch me now
Las palabras de amor, Let us share the words of love
For evermore, evermore
For evermore
You had to kill the conversation
You always had the upper hand
Got caught in love and stepped in sinking sand
You had to go and ruin all our plans
Packed your bags and you're leaving home
Got a one-way ticket and you're all set to go
But we have one more day together, so
Love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye and very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
I guess we drift alone in separate ways
I don't have all that far to go
God knows I learnt to play the lonely man
I've never felt so low in all my life
We were born to be just losers
So I guess there's a limit on how far we go
But we only have one more day together so
Love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye and very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
Tomorrow god knows just where I'll be
Tomorrow who knows just what's in store for me
Anything can happen but we only have one more day together, yeah
Just one more day forever, so
Love me like there's no tomorrow
Hold me in your arms, tell me you mean it
This is our last goodbye and very soon it will be over
But today just love me like there's no tomorrow
God Save the Queen
God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen;
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us,
God save the Queen.
Oh Lord our God arise,
Scatter our enemies,
And make them fall
Confound their politics
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix
Oh save us all.
Thy choicest gifts in store
On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign;
May she defend our laws
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice
God save the Queen.
Our loved Dominion bless
With peace and happiness
From shore to shore;
And let our Empire be
United, loyal, free,
True to herself and Thee
For ever more.
Wooh
Gotta get rid of this feeling I'm feeling done
Yes, I've gotta gid rid of this feeling that's under my
charm, yes
I've been waiting so long, I've just got to get ah,
(unknown lyric)
Yes, got to get a, feeling, feeling babe
Yes, I feel it, I feel it, this feeling's driving me mad,
I can't stand it
Now that I'm here, I've got to give you all that I ever
had, sure do
Now that I'm here
I can see you so clearly
It's the way I should say it
It's not what I say it's the way that I say it
It's not how I play it's the way that I play it
Oooh, ooh, ooh, yeah, I feel
Ow
Oooh, got to get rid of this feeling I'm feeling inside,
yeah
Oh, I've got to, I've got to, I've got to get rid of this
feeling, the feeling is driving me mad
Oh, now that I'm here, I've got to give you all that I
ever had, stop
Ooh
Dislocate your spine if you don't sign he says
I'll have you seeing double (double)
Mesmerise you when he's tongue-tied
Simply with those eyes, ooh ooh ooh
Synchronise your minds and see
The beast within him rise
Don't look back
Don't look back
It's a rip-off
Flick of the wrist and you're dead baby
Blow him a kiss and you're mad, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Flick of the wrist - he'll eat your heart out
A dig in the ribs and then a kick in the head
He's taken an arm and taken a leg
All this time honey
Baby you've been had
Intoxicate your brain with what I'm saying
If not you'll lie in knee-deep trouble
Prostitute yourself he says
Castrate your human pride, ooh ooh ooh
Sacrifice your leisure days
Let me squeeze you till you've dried
Don't look back
Don't look back
It's a rip-off, aah, aah, aah
Work my fingers to my bones
I scream with pain
I still make no impression
Seduce you with his money-make machine
Cross-collateralize, (big-time money money)
Reduce you to a muzak-fake machine
Then the last goodbye
It's a rip-off
Flick of the wrist and you're dead baby
Blow him a kiss and you're mad, ooh ooh ooh ooh
Flick of the wrist - he'll eat your heart out
A dig in the ribs and then a kick in the head
He's taken an arm, and taken a leg
All this time honey
(Album: The Cosmos Rocks, 2008)
"I can't wake in the mornin'
I can't sleep at night
I got a pain in my memory
That just won't sit right
You might say I'm losing my mind
What a shame, shame, shame
But I don't want and I don't need
To play the cryin' game
Music lights this flame in me
I won't let it go and it won't let me be
I'm just a happy slave and oh I can't leave it
'cause I'm still, and I always will, be a believer
Still burnin' (Yeah)
Still yearnin' (And the wheel's)
Still turnin' (Let me tell you why)
We're jivin' (And the beat's)
Still drivin' (And we are all)
Divin' (Rock'n'roll never die)
I can't breathe in the city
Got dust in my lungs
I get mad in the country
Everythin' seem to go wrong
You might think I'm playin' around
But my heart is true
I got reason to believe
That sweet soul magic
Gonna tear my heart in two
Music makes the world go round
I've been flyin' on the wings of the sound
It feels so good from way up here
I'm still a believer
Headin' for the stars
(Still burnin')
(Still yearnin')
Still turnin' (Better than every guy)
(We're jivin')
(Still drivin')
Sky divin' (Rock'n'roll never die)
Don't say that you love me I can't go down that road
But don't think for a moment that my heart went cold
I keep thinkin' about what I lost
And what I might have found
I went to sleep and when I woke
Everything had turned around
Still burnin' (Yeah)
(Still yearnin')
Still turnin' (A new day dawnin')
(We're jivin')
(Still drivin')
Sky divin' (Early in the morning)
Still burnin' (Yeah)
Still yearnin' (And the wheel's)
Still turnin' (Better than every guy)
We're jivin' (And the beat's)
Still drivin' (And we're all)
Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure - that burns a building
down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Pray tomorrow - gets me higher
Pressure on people - people on streets
She been around
Kicked my brains round the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours
People on streets
People on streets
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Pray tomorrow - high higher
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed
and torn
Why - Ooooh
Insanity laughs under pressure we're
cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more
chance
Why can't we give love
Give love give love give love give love
Give love give love give love
Love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the light
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
With the sun in your eyes and the wind in your face
To heaven you rise in a holy embrace
Your feet on the round your head in the clouds
And you're wondering if you're never coming down
In an istant the mysteries of life will unfold
The myths and the dragons of time will explode
Here's to a real understanding of truth
For compassion and grace to be given their chance too
Raise up your mind
It's time to shine
A moment down through millennium
Unveiling the secrets of song to be sung
Waters of life flowing soft to the touch
Wisdom remembered have we forgotten oh so much
Raise up your mind
It's time to shine
Raise up your mind
Hey, it's time to shine
Let's awaken from barbarity
Into a world of serenity
Beyond the rage of foolish pride
And on to the golden shores of paradise
Raise up your mind
Hey, it's time to shine
Raise up your mind
Hey, it's time to shine
Raise up your mind
Your time to shine
It's time to shine
It's time to shine:
I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In my tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong
Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'cos you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you
Every time
I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose
Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
Every time
Too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end...
As I walk along I wonder
What went wrong with our love
A love that was so strong
And as I still walk on I think of
The things we've done together
While our hearts were young
I'm a-walking in the rain
Tears are falling and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery and I wonder
I wah, wah, wah, wah wonder
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away
And I wonder when she will stay
My little runaway a-run, run, run, run, a-runaway
I'm a-walking in the rain
Tears are falling and I feel the pain
Wishing you were here by me
To end this misery and I wonder
I wah, wah, wah, wah wonder
Why, why, why, why, why she ran away
And I wonder when she will stay
My little runaway, a-run, run, run, run, a-runaway
Run run run run runaway
Run run run run runaway
Get your party gown
Get your pigtail down
Get your heart beatin' baby
Got my timin' right
Got my act all tight
It's gotta be tonight my little
Schoolbabe
Your momma says you don't
And your Daddy says you won't
And I'm boilin' up inside
Ain't no way I'm gonna lose out this time
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down
Lock your Daddy out of doors
I don't need him nosing around
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down
Give me all your love tonight
You're such a dirty louse
Go get outta my house
That's all I ever get from your
Family ties, in fact I don't think I ever heard
A single little civil word
from those guys
But you know I don't give a light
I'm gonna make out all right
I've got a sweetheart hand
To put a stop to all that
Snipin' an Grousin'
Tie your Mother down
Tie your Mother down
Take your little brother swimmin'
With a brick (that's all right)
Tie your Mother down,
Tie your Mother down
Or you ain't no friend of mine
Your momma and your Daddy gonna
Plague me til I die
Why can't they understand I'm just a
Peace lovin' guy
Tie your Mother down
(Album: The Cosmos Rocks, 2008)
"I like to sit here in the sunshine
The trees in the fields are green sublime
Suspended in time
And don't it make you feel small?
I like to sit here by the fire's light
The trees in the fields lie bare to the night
The stars burn bright
And don't it make you feel small?
Everyone needs a place they can hide
Hide away find a space to be alone
Everyone needs a place they can hide
Everyone needs to find peace sublime
I like to sit here in the autumn time
The trees in the fields they rustle in the wind
The church bells gently chime
Gentle on your mind
Suspended in time
And don't it make you feel small?
Everyone needs a place they can hide
Everyone need to find peace sublime
Oh peace of mind
Everyone needs a place they can hide
Hide away find a space to be alone
Everyone needs a place they can hide
Hide away find a space to be alone
Everyone needs a place they can hide
Hide away find a space to be alone
Everyone needs a place they can hide
Everyone needs to find, peace sublime
(Album: The Cosmos Rocks, 2008)
"Once I loved a butterfly
Don't wonder how, don't ask me why
But I believed what I'd been told
"All things that glitter can't be gold"
Ooooo ooo yeah
All things that glitter can't be gold
Those jealous minds conspired to say
Just let that creature fly away
How can it be she has it all
Her pride is headed for a fall
Ooooo ooo yeah
All things that glitter can't be gold
Oh Lord, what races we run
Seeking our place in the sun
Reaching and hoping we'll find the right one
Now every day a new joy brings
My butterfly grew golden wings
It seems we find as we grow old
Some things that glitter may be gold
Ooooo ooo yeah
Some things that glitter may be gold
So let us mind what's there to see
Before our hearts become too cold
In spite of all that we've been told
Some things that glitter may be gold
Ooooo ooo yeah
Some things that glitter may be gold
Ooooo ooo yeah
Some things that glitter
Another red letter day,
So the pound has dropped and the children are creating,
The other half ran away,
Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber,
Got a pain in the chest,
Doctors on strike what you need is a rest.
It's not easy love, but you've got friends you can trust,
Friends will be friends,
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention,
Friends will be friends,
When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends right till the end.
Now it's a beautiful day,
The postman delivered a letter from your lover,
Only a phone call away,
You tried to track him down but somebody stole his number,
As a matter of fact,
You're getting used to life without him in your way.
It's so easy now, cos you got friends you can trust,
Friends will be friends,
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention,
Friends will be friends,
When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends right till the end.
It's so easy now, cos you got friends you can trust,
Friends will be friends,
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention,
Friends will be friends,
When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends right till the end.
Friends will be friends,
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention,
Friends will be friends,
When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos right till the end -
Friends will be friends.
Another party 's over -
And I'm left cold sober -
My baby left me for somebody new -
I don't wanna talk about it
Want to forget about it
Wanna be intoxicated with that special brew -
So come and get me -
Let me -
Get in that sinking feeling
That says my heart is on an all time low - So -
Don't expect me -
To behave perfectly -
And wear that sunny smile
My guess is I'm in for a cloudy and overcast
Don't try and stop me
Cause I'm heading for that stormy weather soon -
I'm causing a mild sensation -
With this new occupation
I'm permanently glued -
To this extraordinary mood
so now moveover -
And let me take over -
With my
melancoly blues -
I'm causing a mild sensation
With this new occupation
I'm in the news
Just getting used to this new exposure
So come into my enclosure
And meet my -
Every drop of rain that falls in Sahara Desert says it all,
It's a miracle,
All God's creations great and small, the Golden Gate and the Taj Mahal,
That's a miracle,
Test tube babies being born, mothers, fathers dead and gone,
It's a miracle,
We're having a miracle on earth, mother nature does it all for us,
The wonders of this world go on, the hanging Gardens of Babylon,
Captain Cook and Cain and Able, Jimi Hendrix to the Tower of Babel
It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle,
The one thing we're all waiting for, is peace on earth - an end to war,
It's a miracle we need - the miracle, the miracle we're all waiting for today,
If every leaf on every tree, could tell a story that would be a miracle,
If every child on every street, had clothes to wear and food to eat,
That's a miracle,
If all God's people could be free, to live in perfect harmony,
It's a miracle, we're having a miracle on earth,
Mother nature does it all for us
Open hearts and surgery, Sunday mornings with a cup of tea,
Super powers always fighting,
But Mona Lisa just keeps on smiling,
The wonders of this world go on,
It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle,
The one thing we're all waiting for, is peace on earth and an end to war,
It's a miracle we need, the miracle, the miracle,
Peace on earth and end to war today,
That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends,
I love
She makes me
She is my heart
She is my love
I know
I'm jealous of her
She makes me need
She is my love
Who knows who she'll make me
As I lie in her cocoon
And the world will surely heal my ills
I'm warm and terrified
She makes me so
I know the day I leave her
I'll love her still
She is my love
She is my love
She knows where my dreams will end
I'll follow as they grow
But the world will know how long I'll take
And if I'm very slow she makes me so
Clap your hands and let's groove
Clap your hands, clap your hands
There comes a time in every life
There comes a day in every mind
Now don't look back, don't look behind
Stand up straight in your own time
Stand up for love, every good man
Stand up for love, and foolish man
Stand up for love, and all the rich men
Stand up for love, and all the proud men
Stand up for love, stand up for love, stand up for love
Everybody, come on and take my hand
Everybody, you know it's time,
It's time to make your stand...
Clap your hands and let's groove
In case of fear, in case of fire, in case of some
Kinda, earthquake, or forest fire
I got my man, I got my man, right in my sights -
He looks to the left, leans to the right
You know I want you to now
Stand up for love, every good man
Stand up for love, and every foolish man
And every rich man, and every proud man
Stand up for love, stand up for love
Everybody, come on and take my hand
I said everybody you know it's time to make your stand
Die for love, this is a cry for love
Let's fly for love, gotta die for love
A hand above the water, an angel reaching for the sky
Is it raining in heaven, do you want us to cry?
And everywhere the broken-hearted, On every lonely avenue
No-one could reach them, No-one but you
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flying too close to the sun
And life goes on
Without you
Another tricky situation, I get to drowning in the blues
And I find myself thinking, well, what would you do?
Yes, it was such an operation, forever paying every due
Hell, you made a sensation (sensation)
You found a way through (found a way through)
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flying too close to the sun
We'll remember
Forever
And now the party must be over, I guess we'll never understand
The sense of your leaving, was it the way it was planned?
So we grace another table, and raise our glasses one more time
There's a face at the window
And I ain't never, never saying goodbye
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flying too close to the sun
Crying for nothing
Crying for no-one
No-one but you
Here I stand (Here I stand)
Look around around around around around
But you won't see me (But you won't see me)
Now I'm here (Now I'm here), Now I'm there (Now I'm there)
I'm just a ... just a new man
Yes you made me live again, wow
A baby I was when you took my hand
And the light of the night burned bright
The people all stared didn't understand
But you new my name on sight
Ooh whatever came of you and me
America's new bride to be - ooh, don't worry baby I'm safe and sound
Down in the dungeon just peaches 'n' me
Don't I love her so
Yes you made me live again, yeah
Yeah, ooh, a thin moon me in a smoke-screen sky
Where the beams of your lovelight chase
Don't move, don't speak, don't feel no pain
With the rain running down my face
Your matches still light up the sky
And many a tear lives on in my eye
Down in the city just Hoople 'n' me
Don't I love him so
Ooh, don't I love him so
Wooh
Whatever comes of you and me
I love to leave my memory with you
Now I'm here (Now I'm here)
Think I'll stay around around around around around around
Down in the city justa you 'n' me (Down in the city justa you 'n' me)
Don't I love you so
Go, go, go, little Queenie
Now once upon a time
An old man told me a fable
When the piper is gone
And the soup is cold upon the table
And if the black crow flies
Find a new destination
That is the sign
Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to ogre battle fight
He gives a great big cry
And he can swallow up the ocean
With mighty tongue he catches flies
And the palm of his hand incredible size
One great big eye
Has to focus in your direction
Now the battle is won
Yeah yeah yeah
Come tonight
Come to the ogre site
Come to ogre battle fight
Ah ah ah ah ah
The ogre men are still inside
The two way mirror mountain
You gotta keep down
Right out of sight
You can't see in but they can see out
Keep a look out
The ogre men are comming out
From the two way mirror mountain
They're running up behind
And they're coming all about
Can't go east 'cause you gotta go south
Ogre men are going home
The great big fight is over
Bugle blow that trumpet cry
Oh oh oh
Ogre Battle lives for ever more
You can come along
You can come along
One man, one goal
Ha! One mission
One heart, one soul
Just one solution
One flash of light
Yeah, one god one vision
One flesh, one bone
one true religion
One voice, one hope
One real decision
Wowowowo, gimme one vision.
No wrong, no right
I'm gonna tell you there's no black and no white
No blood, no stain,
All we need is
One world wide vision.
One flesh one bone,
one true religion,
One race, one hope,
One real decision,
Wowowowowyeah, oh yeah, oh yeah!
I had a dream
When I was young
A dream of sweet illusion
With a glimpse of hope and unity
And visions of one sweet union
(But a cold wind blows
And a dark rain falls)
And in my heart it shows
Look what they've done to my dream
(One vision)
So give me your hands
Give me your hearts
I'm ready
There's only one direction
One world, one nation
Yeah one vision
No hate no fight
Just excitation
All through the night
It's a celebration
(wowowowo yeah)
(one, one, one, one...)
One flesh, one bone
One true religion
One voice, one hope
One real decision
Gimme one night (yeah)
Gimme one hope (hey)
Just gimme,
One man (one man)
One bar (one night)
One day hey hey,
Just gimme gimme gimme
Words and music by Queen
It's a beautiful day
The sun is shining
I feel good
And no-one's gonna stop me now, oh yeah
It's a beautiful day
I feel good, I feel right
And no-one, no-one's gonna stop me now
Mama
Sometimes I feel so sad, so sad, so bad
But no-one's gonna stop me now, no-one
It's hopeless - so hopeless to even try
Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure, oh yeah,
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life,
Ooh, Ooh, pain is so close to pleasure everybody knows,
One day we love each other then we're fighting one another all the time,
When I was young and just getting started,
And people talked to me they sounded broken hearted,
Then I grew up and got my imagination
And all I wanted was to start a new relation,
So in love but love had a bad reaction,
I was looking for some good old satisfaction,
But pain is all I got when all I needed was some love and affection,
Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure, yeah, yeah,
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life,
Pain and pleasure, Ooh, Ooh, pain and pleasure,
When your plans go wrong and you turn out the light,
But inside your mind you have to put up a fight,
Where are the answers that we're all searching for,
There's nothing in this world to be sure of anymore,
Some days you're feeling good,some days you're feeling bad
But if you're feeling happy someone else is always sad,
Let the sweetness on love wipe the tears from your face
For better for worse,so let's make the best of the rest of our years
Ooh, ooh, pain is so close to pleasure, I told you so,
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life,
Pain is so close to pleasure, yeah, yeah,
Sunshine and rainy weather go hand in hand together all your life,
All your life,
(As recorded by the Temptations)

It was the third of September, that day I'll always remember, yes I will
'Cause that was the day that my daddy died
I never got a chance to see him, never heard nothin' but bad things about him
Mama I'm depending on you, to tell me the truth
Mama just hung her head and said son
Papa was a rollin' stone, wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone, oh
Papa was a rollin' stone, (my son yeah) wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone, well well
Hey mama, is it true what they say that papa never worked a day in his life
And mama, some bad talk goin' around town sayin' that papa had three outside children
And another wife... and that ain't right
Heard some talk about papa doin' some store front preachin'
Talkin' about savin' souls and all the time leechin', dealin' in dirt
And stealin' in the name of the Lord
Mama just hung her head and said
Papa was a rollin' stone, (my son) wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone
Hey, papa was a rollin' stone, (dadgummit) wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone, ooh
Hey mama, I heard papa call himself a jack of all trades
Tell me is that what sent papa to an early grave?
Folks say papa would beg, borrow, steal to pay his bills
Hey mama, folks say papa never was much on thinkin'
Spent most of his time chasin' women and drinkin'
Mama I'm depending on you to tell me the truth
Mama looked up with a tear in her eye and said son
Papa was a rollin' stone, (well, well, well, well) wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone, alone, alone, alone, alone
Papa was a rollin' stone, (uh huh) wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone, I said
Papa was a rollin' stone, (yes he was now) wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died, all he left us was alone.

- HIT PARADER, April 1973.
We had a good night jamming away,
There was a fullmoon showing,
And we started to play,
But in the cold light of day next morning
Party was over,
The party was over.
We got love and we got style,
And we got sex and I know we got what it takes oh, oh,
Why don't you come back and play,
Come back and play, come back and play,
We got all night all day,
Everybody's gone away,
Why don't you come back and play, come back and play, come back and play,
Come back and play, Go get 'em boy - let's party,
We had a food fight in somebody's face,
We were up all night singing
And giving a chase,
But in the cold light of day next morning.
Everybody was hung-over.
Come back and play, come back and play,
We got all night all day,
Everybody's gone away,
Why don't you come back and play,
Come back and play,
We got all night and we got all day,
We got all night to play,
Come back, comeback, comeback, comeback, comeback and play,
Ooo. you make me live
whatever this world can give to me
It's you, you're all I see
Ooo, you make me live now honey
Ooo, you make me live
You're the best friend
that I ever had
I've been with you such a long time
You're my sunshine
And I want you to know
That my feelings are true
I really love you
You're my best friend
Ooo, you make me live
I've been wandering round
But I still come back to you
In rain or shine
You've stood by me girl
I'm happy, happy at home
You're my best friend.
Ooo,you're making me live
Whenever this world is cruel to me
I've got you to help me forgive
Ooo,you're making me live now honey
Ooo, you make me live
You're the first one
When things turn out bad
You know I'll never be lonely
You're my only one
And I love the things
I really love the things that you do
You're my best friend
Ooo, you make me live.
I'm happy, happy at home
You're my best friend
You're my best friend
Ooo, you make me live
You, you're my best friend.

"Yeah
Hey hey hey
No I'll never look back in anger
No I'll never find me an answer
You promised me, you'd keep in touch
I read your letter and it hurt me so much
I said I'd never, never be angry with you
I don't wanna feel like a stranger (no)
'Cos I'd rather stay out of danger
I read your letter so many times
I got your meaning between the lines
I said I'd never, never be angry with you
I must be strong so she won't know how much I miss her
I only hope as time goes on I'll forget her
My body's aching, can't sleep at night
I'm too exhausted to start a fight
And if I see her with another guy
I'll eat my heart out 'cos I love, love, love, love her
Come on baby, let's get together
I'll love you baby, I'll love you forever
I'm trying hard to stay away
What made you change, what did I say ?
Ooh I need your loving tonight
Ooh I need your loving
Ooh I need your loving
Ooh I need your loving babe tonight (Hit me)
Ooh I need your loving tonight
No I'll never look back in anger
No I'll never find me an answer
Gave me no warning, how could I guess
I'll have to learn to forgive and forget
Ooh I need your loving
Ooh I need your loving
There's no living in my life anymore
The seas have gone dry and the rain stopped falling
Please don't you cry anymore
Can't you see
Listen to the breeze, whisper to me please
Don't send me to the path of nevermore
Even the valleys below
Where the rays of the sun were so warm and tender
Now haven't anything to grow
Can't you see
Why did you have to leave me
Why did you deceive me
You send me to the path of nevermore
When you say you didn't love me anymore
Nevermore
I might be at a table
And suddenly I'll catch
A fleeting vision of her crystal seas
Or I might be standing in a crowded dockyard faraway
Beneath the sun I've never seen
'Cos I have seen many worlds
For what it's worth
But I'll never see again
The planet earth
My earth
I might be chasing waves of light
Out towards the grim
Where stars are sparse
And the cold of space seeps in
But I might be in a barroom
Drinking menthylated gin
And thinking of places I have been
Yes I have seen many worlds
For what it's worth
But I'll never see again the planet earth
My earth
Cast adrift amongst the stars
I float from sun to sun
Dreaming of the world that gave me birth
All the places I have been

Open up your mind and let me step inside
Rest your weary head and let your heart decide
It's so easy when you know the rules
It's so easy
all you have to do is fall in love
Play the game - everybody play the game
of love
When your feeling down and your resistance is low
Light another cigarette and let yourself go
This is your life - don't play hard to get
It's a free world
All you have to do is fall in love
Play the game
Everybody play the game of love
My game of love has just begun
Love runs from my head down to my toes
My love is pumping through my veins
Driving me insane
Play the game
Everybody play the game of love
This is your life - don't play hard to get
It's a free world
all you have to do is fall in love
Play the game of love
This is your life - don't play hard to get
It's a free, free world
All you have to do is fall in love!
Here we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Make the bed light the light
Lady Mercy won't be home tonight
We don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
We're just waiting for the hammer to fall
Oh, ev'ry night and every day
A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face the Western Way
Build your muscles as your body decays
Toe your line and play their game
Let the anesthetic cover it all
Till one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall
Rich or poor or famous
For your truth it's all the same
Lock your door the rain is pouring
Through your window pane
Baby now your struggle's all in vain
For we who grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the mushroom cloud
Convinced our voices can't be heard
We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louder
What the hell we fighting for ?
Just surrender and it won't hurt at all
You just got time to say your prayers
While you're waiting for the hammer to fall
THIS SONG IS CALLED "TEAR IT UP" NOT "Soon It's Round Your Street I'm Creeping"! MORONS
We gonna Tear it up
Stir it up
Break it up - Baby -
You gotta Tear it up
Shake it up
Make it up - as you go along.
Tear it up
Square it up
Wake it up - Baby.
Tear it up
Stir it up
Stake it out - and you can't go wrong.
(Hey)
I love you cos you're sweet and I love you cos you're naughty
I love you for you mind but give me your body
I wanna be a toy at your birthday party
Wind me up - wind me up - wind me up - let me go -
Tear it up
Stir it up
Break it up - let me go.
Tear it up
Shake it up
Make it up - as you go along.
Tear it up
Turn it up
A word in your ear, from father to son
Hear the words that I say
I fought with you, fought on your side
Long before you were born
Joyful the sound, the word goes around
From father to son, to son
And the voice is so clear, time after time it keeps
Calling you, calling you on
Don't destroy what you see, your country to be
Just keep building on the ground that's been won
Kings will be crowned and the word goes around
From father to son, to son
Take this letter that I give you
Take it sonny, hold it high
You won't understand a word that's in it
But you'll write it all again before you die
A word in your ear from father to son
Funny you don't hear a single word I say
But my letter to you, will stay by your side
Through the years till the loneliness is gone
Sing if you will, but the air you breathe I live to give you
Father to son
Father to, father to, father to son
Joyful the sound, the word goes around
From father to son, to son
Kings will be crowned, the word goes around
From father to son, to son
Joyful the sound, the word goes around
From father to son, to son
Joyful the sound, the word goes around
From father to son, to son
Joyful the sound, the word goes around
From father to son, to son
Kings will be crowned, the word goes around

(Instrumental)
Take me to the room where the red's all red
Take me out of my head, that's what I said yeah
Hey take me to the room where the green's all green
And from what I've seen it's hot it's mean
Gonna use my stack
It's gotta be Mack
Gonna get me on the track
Got a dragon on my back
Take me to the room where the beat's all round
Gonna eat that sound (yeah yeah yeah!)
Take me to the room where the black's all white
And the white's all black take me back to the shack
She don't take no prisoners
Gonna give me the business
Got a dragon on my back
It's a dragon attack
Get down, I said so Hey hey, All right
She's low down - She don't take no prisoners
Go down - Gonna give me the business
No time - Yeah chained to the rack!
Show time - Got a dragon on my back
Show down - Go find another customer
Slow down - I gotta make my way
Oh I used to be your baby
Used to be your pride and joy
You used to take me dancing
Just like any other boy
But now you've found another partner
You left me like a broken toy
Oh it's someone else you're taking
Someone else you're playing to
Honey tho' I'm aching
Know just what I have to do
If I can't have you when I'm waking
I'll go to sleep and dream I'm with you
Oh take me take me
Take me to the dreamers ball
I'll be right on time
And I'll dress so fine
You're gonna love me when you see me
I won't have to worry
Take me take me
Promise not to wake me till it's morning
It's all been true
What d'you say about that hey honey
You gonna take me to that dreamers ball
I'd like that
Right on that 42nd Street
Way down downtown dreamers ball
Oh take me take me
Take me I'm your play thing now
Make my life worthwhile
With the slightest smile
Or destroy me with the barely
Perceptible whisper
Gently take me
Remember I'll be dreaming of my baby
At the dreamers ball
Oh take me hold me
Remember what you told me
You'd meet me at the dreamers ball
One dance whose steps I never could learn
It€™s called the wedding march
The grace that it takes, the grace you deserve,
Require a lighter touch
I know you love dancing.
Oh, I know that you love dancing so much
I know you love dancing.
Music€™s a wild thing with mischief to prove
I can€™t adjust to the way that you move
Music€™s a wild thing whatever the groove
Some music isn€™t for dancing
One dance whose steps I never could learn
It€™s called the wedding march
The grace that it takes, the balance and poise,
I still find a mystery
I know you love dancing.
So, I know that you€™d hate dancing with me
I know you love dancing.
So, I know that you€™d hate dancing with me
Flash's Theme Reprise (Victory Celebrations)
Written by Brian May
He's for everyone of us
Stand for everyone of us
He'll save with a mighty hand
Every man every woman every child
He's the mighty flash
No-one but the pure in heart may find the golden grail
Oh oh - oh oh
Flash
As a measure of the soul, ever done run bring your fear
You and me, we got the same air goin', breathin' here
You got send to toad water, you been
Like someone left to cold half breathin'
Maybe me and the queen could take another over
Walk it away, yeah
Oh little, wish it away
Well I got time to wish away
Little, wish it away
Head look about the free, like a dumb mum bring a wheel
I might take the tee mind over, load and see
I done kicked a hole wide lookin', a gapin' half to free mind mover
Maybe me and the queen can give a side order
Load it away, well
Oh little, wish it away
Well I got time to wish away
Little, wish it away
She don't hang
She don't hang
She don't hang

"Okay, this is a Ricky Nelson song
I say hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
You passed me by one sunny day
Flashed those big brown eyes my way
Ooh, I wanted you forever more
Hey, I'm not one that get's around
Swear my feet stuck to the ground
And though I never did see you no more
Yeah neah
I said hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
Sweet Mary Lou I'm so in love with you
Hey, I knew Mary Lou we'd never part
So hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
So hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
One more time
Yes, hello Mary Lou (goodbye heart)
Hey, wait a minute
One minute
Ah, I need my fucking water
I don't care, let's go
There's no time for us
There's no place for us
What is this thing that builds our dreams
Yet slips away from us
Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever.....?
There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment
Set aside for us
Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever.....?
Who dares to love forever
When love must die?
But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever?
Who wants to live forever?
Forever is our today
The Invisible Man (12" Version)
Written by Queen
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible invisible invisible man
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you
When you hear a sound
That you just can't place
Feel somethin' move
That you just can't trace
When something sits
On the end of your bed
Don't turn around
When you hear me tread
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you
And I'm in your room
And I'm in your bed
And I'm in your life
And I'm in your head
Like C.I.A.
Or the F.B.I.
You'll never get close
Never take me alive
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
Incredible how you can
See right through me
I'm the invisible man
I'm the invisible man
It's criminal how I can
See right through you
Hah, hah, hah, hello
Hah, hah, hah, o.k.
Hah, hah, hah, hello-hello-hello-hello
Never had a real good friend - not a boy or girl
No-one knows what I've been through - let my flag unfurl
So I make my mark from the edge of the world
From the edge of the world
From the edge of the world
I'm the invisible invisible invisible invisible man
Flash a-ah
Savior of the Universe
Flash a-ah
He'll save every one of us
(Seemingly there is no reason for these extraordinary intergalactical upsets)
(Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha)
(What's happening Flash?)
(Only Doctor Hans Zarkhov, formerly at NASA, has provided any explanation)
Flash a-ah
He's a miracle
(This morning's unprecedented solar eclipse is no cause for alarm)
Flash a-ah
King of the impossible
He's for every one of us
Stand for every one of us
He save with a mighty hand
Every man, every woman
Every child, with a mighty
Flash
(General Kala, Flash Gordon approaching.)
(What do you mean Flash Gordon approaching? Open fire! All weapons! Dispatch war rocket Ajax to bring back his body)
Flash a-ah
(Gordon's alive!)
Flash a-ah
He'll save every one of us
Just a man
With a man's courage
You know he's
Nothing but a man
And he can never fail
No one but the pure at heart
May find the Golden Grail
...Oh..Oh........Oh..Oh ................
(Flash, Flash, I love you, but we only have fourteen hours to save the Earth!)

All you rock in Rio people
"Oooh oooh ooh ooh ooh yeah
Yeah
Oh, every morning, I face the sun
I lift my head and smile at everyone
Every afternoon you'll find me working on
I got my new shoes on
Got to be moving on - that's what they say
Every night I'm tossed
And I shake my fevered brow
Thinking of my lost opportunity
Oh yeah
Oooh
Yes every morning I face the sun
And I get so positive with everyone
Oh and every afternoon you'll find the cracks showing through
They know what I'm going through
Oh yes they do
Every evening finds me
The optimist behind me
Delilah, Delilah
Oh my, oh my, oh my - you're irresistible
You make me smile when I'm just about to cry
You bring me hope, you make me laugh - you like it
You get away with murder, so innocent
But when you throw a moody you're all claws and you bite -
That's alright
Delilah, Delilah
Oh my, oh my, oh my - you're unpredictable
You make me so very happy
When you cuddle up and go to sleep beside me
And then you make me slightly mad
When you pee all over my Chippendale Suite
Delilah, Delilah
Hey - Hey - Hey
You take over my house and home
You even try to answer my telephone
Delilah, you're the apple of my eyes
Meeow, Meeow, Meeow
Delilah - I love you
Oh you make me so very happy - you give me kisses
And I go out of my mind ooh
Meeow, Meeow, Meeow, Meeow
You're irresistible - I love you Delilah
Delilah - I love you
You make me very happy
Oooh - I love your kisses
Far, far from the light
Here the night creatures call
In the cold breath they howl
And the hollow tears, they’re calling you
I’ll be there, though maybe you wont see my babe
I’ll still care, no mater where I’ll still be there
When you make to the other side
Lord I’m going back, back to the light
Back to the dreams that are paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land, where the sunshine heals my soul
Deep, deep in the night
When the world fils with tears
And the wind grows, colder and colder it grows
And the fire dimes, with the same old fears
I’ll be there, no matter what you’re going through
In the dark I care, I’m holding on, I’m hoping on
It’s still the same old me inside#
Lord I’m going back, back to the light
Back to the dreams that are paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land, where the sunshine heals my soul
On and on, searching for the clearer view
Winning and loosing an inner war
Wondering what we do it for
Though the road seems never ending
Hold on to the hope I’m sending through
No matter where you’re going to
I’ll be there
I’m holding on, believe it
We’ll be walking in the light
’cos there’ll be no place left to hide
Back to the light
Back to the dreams that are paved with gold
Back to the light
Back to the land, where the sunshine heals my soul
Let me hear you babes - yeah, yeah, yeah
I Can't Live With You (1997 'Rocks' Retake)
Written by Queen
I can't live without you
I can't live without you
I can't live without you
I can't live without you
I can't live without you
I can't live without you
Oh Ohhh
I Can't
Yeah
I can't live with you
But I can't live without you
I can't let you stay
Oooh, but I can't live if you go away
I don't know just how it goes
All I know is I can't live with you
Yeah, I'm having a hard time
I'm walking a fine line
Between hope and despair
You may think that I don't care
But I travelled a long road to
Get a hold of my sorrow
I tried to catch a dream
But nothing's what it seems
Love is saying baby it's all right
When deep inside you're really petrified
Lover turns to hater
On this escalator
I can't live with you
Yeah, but I can't live without you
I can't breathe - if you stay
But I can't bear you to go away
I don't know what time it is
All I know is I can't live with you
We're stuck in a bad place
We're trapped in a rat race
And we can't escape
Maybe there's been some mistake
We're trying to make a high score
We're walking through a closed door
And nobody's winning
We're just sinning against ourselves
Hold on baby tell me it's all right
Anger's breaking from the hurt inside
Passions screaming hotter
Doin' what we gotta do - yeah
I can't live with you, I can't live with you
I can't live, I can't live
I can't, I can't live with you
But baby I'll never ever leave you
I can't live with you
But I can't live without you
Cause I'm in love with you
Ooh, and everything about you
I can't live with you
No I just can't live, I just can't live
Ooh, I can't live with you
Yeah, and I can't live without you
Through the madness, through the tears
We've still got each other
For a million years
Yeah, ooh yeah, yeah
I can't live without you - eh yeah
I can't live without you
Yeah eah yeah
Whoa whooooa
I can't live without you
I can't live without you
I can't live without you
Whoa
I can't live without you
Baby baby baby
I can't live without you
I can't live without you
Ma ma ma ma ma whoa whoooa yeah
Yeah
It's a Machine's world
Don't tell me I ain't got no soul
When the machines take over
It ain't no place for you and me.
They tell me I don't care
But deep inside I'm just a man
They freeze me they burn me
They squeeze me they stress me
With smoke-blackened pistons of steel they compress me
But no-one, but no-one, but no-one can wrest me away
Back to Humans.
We have no disease, no troubles of mind
No thank you please, no regard for the time
We never cry, we never retreat
We have no conception of love or defeat.
What's that Machine noise
It's bytes and megachips for tea
It's that Machine, boys
With Random Access Memory
Never worry, never mind
Not for money, not for gold.
It's software it's hardware
It's heartbeat is time-share
It's midwife's a disk drive
It's sex-life is quantised
It's self-perpetuating a parahumanoidarianised.
Back to Humans
Back to Humans.
Back to Machines.
Living in a new world
Thinking in the past
Living in a new world
How you gonna last
Machine world...
It's a Machine's world...
Change.
Back to Humans.

Ride the wild wind
(Push the envelope don't sit on the fence)
Ride the wild wind
(Live life on the razors edge)
Gonna ride the whirlwind
It ain't dangerous - enough for me
Get you head down baby - we're gonna ride tonight
Your angel eyes are shining bright
I wanna take your hand - lead you from this place
Gonna leave it all behind
Check out of this rat race -
Ride the wild wind
Ride the wild wind
Gonna ride the whirlwind -
It ain't dangerous - enough for me
Tie your head back baby -
We're gonna ride tonight
We got freaks to the left - we got jerks to the right
Sometimes I get so low - I just have to ride
Let me take your hand
Let me be your guide
Ride the wild wind
(Don't sit on the fence)
Ride the wild wind
(Live life on the razors edge)
Gonna ride the whirlwind
It ain't dangerous - enough for me
Ride the wild wind
Ride the wild wind
Gonna ride the whirlwind -
It ain't dangerous - enough for me

"I can see it in your stars
Life is so exciting
Acting so bizarre
Your world is so inviting
Playing really cool
And looking so mysterious - honey
Your every day is full of sunshine
But into every life a little rain must fall
No problem
Uh, be cool now
Anyone who imagines
They can blind you with science
Bully you all over
With property and finance
But you have position
To call the shots and name the price - honey
You found success and recognition
But into every life a little rain must fall
Flow John
You lead a fairy tale existence
But into every life a little rain must fall
Be cool, ha, kiss kiss
Others seem to think
You are over dramatising
Problems at work
So it's hardly surprising
There's little you can do
To alter their opinions - honey
You want a clean reputation
But now you're facing complications
'Cos into every life a little rain must fall
Be cool, get serious, wooh, alright
Play it nice and cool
Play it nice and cool - yeah
Chase me
Ooh, one more time, ha ha, I like it
Words and music by Brian May
Hey little babe you're changing
Babe are you feeling sore?
It ain't no use in pretending
You don't wanna play no more
It's plain that you ain't no baby
What would your mother say?
You're all dressed up like a lady
How come you behave this way?
Sail away sweet sister
Sail across the sea
Maybe you'll find somebody
To love you half as much as me
My heart is always with you
No matter what you do
Sail away sweet sister
I'll always be in love with you
Forgive me for what I told you
My heart makes a fool of me
You know that I'll never hold you
I know that you gotta be free
Sail away sweet sister
Sail across the sea
Maybe you'll find somebody
To love you half as much as me
Take it the way you want it
But when they let you down my friend
Sail away sweet sister
Back to my arms again
Hot child don't you know you're young
You got your whole life ahead of you?
And you can throw it away too soon
Way too soon
Sail away sweet sister
Sail across the sea
Maybe you'll find somebody's
Gonna love you half as much as me
My heart is always with you
No matter what you do
Sail away sweet sister
I'll always be in love with you
(Album: The Game, 1980)

I'd sit alone and watch your light
My only friend through teenage nights
And everything I had to know
I heard it on my radio
You gave them all those old time stars
Through wars of worlds, invaded by Mars
You made 'em laugh, you made 'em cry
You made us feel like we could fly
So don't become some background noise
A backdrop for the girls and boys
Who just don't know or just don't care
And just complain when you're not there
You had your time you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio what's new
Radio someone still loves you
We watch the the shows, we watch the stars
On videos for hours and hours
We hardly need to use our ears
How music changes through the years.
Let's hope you never leave old friend
Like all good things on you we depend
So stick around cause we might miss you
When we grow tired of all this visual
You had your time you had the power
You've yet to have your finest hour
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo, radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio goo goo, radio ga ga
All we hear is radio ga ga
Radio blah blah
Radio what's new
They called him a hero
In the land of the free
But he wouldn't shake my hand boy
He disappointed me
So I got my handgun
And I blew him away
That critter was a bad guy
I had to make him pay
You might fear for my reason
I don't care what they say
Look out baby it's the season
For the mad masquerade
Put out the fire
You need a bullet like a hole in the head
Put out the fire
Don't believe what your grandaddy said
She was my lover
It was a shame that she died
But the constitution's right on my side
Cos I caught my lover in my neighbour's bed
I got retribution, filled 'em full of lead
I've been told it's the fashion
To let me on the streets again
It's nothing but a crime of passion
And I'm not to blame
Put out the fire
You need a weapon like a hole in the head
Put out the fire
And let your sons and your daughters
Sleep sound in their beds
You know a gun never killed nobody
You can ask anyone
People get shot by people
People with guns
Put out the fire
You need a gun like a hole in the head
Put out the fire
Just tell me that old fashioned gun law
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you
Buddy you're a boy make a big noise
Playin' in the street gonna be a big man some day
You got mud on yo' face
You big disgrace
Kickin' your can all over the place
Singin'
We will
we will rock you
We will
we will rock you
Buddy you're a young man,hard man
Shoutin' in the street gonna take on the world some day
You got blood on yo' face
Y' big disgrace
Wavin' your banner all over the place
We will
we will rock you
We will
we will rock you
Buddy you're an old man,poor man
Pleadin' with your eyes gonna make you some peace,some
You got mud on your face
big disgrace
Somebody better put you back into yo' place
We will
we will rock you
Singin'
We will
we will rock you
everybody
We will
we will rock you
We will
In the bright shop window sits the polar bear
Makes the children's eyes light up to see him there
Amongst the tinsel he gives everyone a smile
To see him and he'll be a star
Love him from where you are
He's not for, not for, not for sale
Past an open window walks the pretty girl
Does she see me at her feet its hard to tell
But if I ask her she might turn her smile away
To see him and he'll be a star
Love her from where you are
I guess I'll learn to look
Without addressing her
Minor contentment wears a smile
Open up your mind and let me step inside
Rest your weary head and let your heart decide
It's so easy when you know the rules
It's so easy
all you have to do is fall in love
Play the game - everybody play the game
of love
When your feeling down and your resistance is low
Light another cigarette and let yourself go
This is your life - don't play hard to get
It's a free world
All you have to do is fall in love
Play the game
Everybody play the game of love
My game of love has just begun
Love runs from my head down to my toes
My love is pumping through my veins
Driving me insane
Play the game
Everybody play the game of love
This is your life - don't play hard to get
It's a free world
all you have to do is fall in love
Play the game of love
This is your life - don't play hard to get
It's a free, free world
Some people are born royal
Others become queens on their own
Queen, queen
Queen, queen
I don't need to be king
I just wanna be queen
No doubt about it
I'm gonna shout it
Queen, queen
I can't believe all of the things they say about me
Walk in the room they throwing shade left to right
They be like "Ooh, she's serving face!"
And I just tell em, "Cut me up, and get down!"
They call us dirty 'cuz we break all your rules down
And we just came to act a fool, is that all right? (Girl, that's alright)
They be like "Ooh, let them eat cake!"
But we eat wings and throw them bones on the ground!
Am I a freak for dancing 'round? (queen)
Am I a freak for getting down? (queen)
I'm cutting up, don't cut me down
Yeah I wanna be, wanna be Q.U.E.E.N.
Is it peculiar that she twerk in the mirror?
And am I weird to dance alone late at night? (Naw!)
And is it true we're all insane? (Yeah)
And I just tell 'em "No, we ain't" and get down
I heard this life is just a play with no rehearsal
I wonder will this be my final act tonight
And tell me what's the price of fame?
Am I a sinner with my skirt on the ground?
Am I a freak for dancing 'round?
Am I a freak for getting down?
I'm cutting up, don't cut me down
Yeah I wanna be, wanna be Q.U.E.E.N.
Hey, brother, can you save my soul from the devil?
Say is it weird to like the way she wear her tights?
And is it rude to wear my shades?
Am I a freak because I love watching Mary? (Maybe)
Hey, sister, am I good enough for your heaven?
Say will your God accept me in my black and white?
Will he approve the way I'm made?
Or should I reprogram, reprogram and get down?
Am I a freak for dancing 'round?
Am I a freak for getting down?
I'm cutting up, don't cut me down
Yeah I wanna be, wanna be Q.U.E.E.N
Even if it makes others uncomfortable
I will love who I am
Even if it makes other uncomfortable
I will love who I am
Don't shake 'til the break of dawn
Don't mean a thing, so duh
I can't take it no more
Baby, we in tuxedo groove
Pharaohs and E. Badu
Crazy in the black and white
We got the drums so tight
Baby, here comes the freedom song
Too strong we moving on
Baby, there's melody
Show you another way
This joint's for fight unknown
Come home and sing your song
But you gotta testify
Because the booty don't lie
No, no, the booty don't lie
Oh no, the booty don't lie
Yeah
Yeah, Let's flip it
I don't think they understand what I'm trying to say
I asked a question like this
"Are we a lost generation of our people?
Add us to equations but they'll never make us equal.
She who writes the movie owns the script and the sequel.
So why ain't the stealing of my rights made illegal?
They keep us underground working hard for the greedy,
But when it's time pay they turn around and call us needy.
My crown too heavy like the Queen Nefertiti
Gimme back my pyramid, I'm trying to free Kansas City.
Mixing masterminds like your name Bernie Grundman.
Well I'm gonna keep leading like a young Harriet Tubman
You can take my wings but I'm still goin' fly
And even when you edit me the booty don't lie
Yeah, keep singing and I'mma keep writing songs
I'm tired of Marvin asking me, "What's Going On?
March to the streets 'cuz I'm willing and I'm able
Categorize me, I defy every label
And while you're selling dope, we're gonna keep selling hope
We rising up now, you gotta deal you gotta cope
Will you be electric sheep?
Electric ladies, will you sleep?
(Album: The Cosmos Rocks, 2008)
(Queen + Paul Rodgers)
"Ain't got no hope
Got no idea
What to do
Or why I'm here
Wanna get my face
On your TV
I wanna be heard
I want to be seen
Ain't got nothin'
Nothing
Nothin' to show
Make me a c-lebrity
I want to be
A face on TV
(I wanna be on your screen)
Then you can see
I'm a c-lebrity
I wanna get my features
In magazines
See this creature on every street
On every screen
Write my life story
Before I'm twenty one
I got to tell the world
They may say I'm dumb but er
Ain't got nothin'
Nothing
Nothing to show
Make me a c-lebrity
I want to be
A face on TV
(I wanna be on your screen)
Then you can see
I'm a c-lebrity
I wanna be a star
In a Broadway musical
They're gonna love me
I can't sing or dance at all
Some may say I'm lackadaisical
And if I was real good
I'd stand no chance at all
I want to be
A face on TV
(Yeah I wanna be on your screen)
Then you can see
I'm a c-lebrity
Then you can say
You knew me one day
Then you will see
I'm a c-lebrity
C c-lebrity
Wanna be a c c c-lebrity
Make my dream come true
C c-lebrity
Wanna be a c c c c-lebrity
I wanna be heard
I want to be seen
When the outside temperature rises
And the meaning is oh so clear
One thousand and one yellow daffodils
Begin to dance in front of you - oh dear
Are they trying to tell you something
You're missing that one final screw
You're simply not in the pink my dear
To be honest you haven't got a clue
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - ooh oh
It finally happened - I'm slightly mad
Oh dear
I'm one card short of a full deck
I'm not quite the shilling
One wave short of a shipwreck
I'm not my usual top billing
I'm coming down with a fever
I'm really out to sea
This kettle is boiling over
I think I'm a banana tree
Oh dear
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happened - happened
It finally happened - uh huh
It finally happened - I'm slightly man - oh dear
I'm knitting with only one needle
Unraveling fast its true
I'm driving only three wheels these days
But my dear how about you
I'm going slightly mad
I'm going slightly mad
It finally happenedIt finally happened - oh yes
It finally happened
I'm slightly madJust very slightly mad

Adventure seeker on an empty street
Just an alley creeper, light on his feet
A young fighter screaming, with no time for doubt
With the pain and anger can´t see a way out,
It ain´t much I´m asking, I heard him say,
Gotta find me a future move out of my way,
I want it all, I want it all,I want it all, and I want
it now,
I want it all, I want it all,I want it all, and I want
it now
Listen all you people, come gather round
I gotta get me a game plan,gotta shake you to the
ground
Just give me what I know is mine,
People do you hear me, just give me the sign,
It ain´t much I´m asking, if you want the truth
Here´s to the future for the dreams of youth,
I want it all, I want it all,
I want it all, and I want it now
I want it all, I want it all,
I want it all, and I want it now
I´m a man with a one track mind,
So much to do in one life time(people do you hear me)
Not a man for compromise and where´s and why´s and
living lies
So I´m living it all, yes I´m living at all,
And I´m giving it all, and I´m giving it all,
(EPIC guitar solo)
It ain´t much I´m asking, if you want the truth,
Here´s to the future, hear the cry of youth,
I want it all, I want it all,
I want it all, and I want it now
I want it all, I want it all,

"Yeah yeah - ha ha
Let's go - let's go - let's go
Yeah, I took my baby dancing
To see a heavy band
I never saw my baby till the encore
She had the singer by the hand
I didn't wanna cry 'cos I had to be cool
I didn't wanna tell you that you're much too cruel
Did you have to run off with that doggone fool
All I gotta do is think about you
Ev'ry night and day - I go crazy
All I gotta do is get my hands on you
Gotta stay away from me baby
Hey, I wouldn't mind the postman
If the neighbours didn't know
Or the gas man, electric man, the man who fixed the car
I'd have to let it go
But you had to bring me down for a rock 'n' roll clone
Leave me like a sucker standing all alone
You just had to run off with that rolling stone
Go ahead fool
All I gotta do is think about you
Ev'ry night and day - I go crazy
All I gotta do is get my hands on you
You gotta stay away from me baby
So I ain't gonna go see no Rolling Stones - no more - no more
I don't wanna go to see Queen - no more - no more
I ain't gonna go see them Rolling Stones - no more - no more
I don't wanna go and see Queen - no more - no more - no more - no more
Yeah yeah crazy yeah
I don't wanna hurt you
But you been a hurting me
But you know that I'll be watching
Rolling on the floor - next time you're on the T.V.
Had enough of your pretending that you know where it's at
Come on to all the boys like a real small brat
You think I'd nearly let you get away with all that
No way babe
All I gotta do is think about you
Ev'ry night and day - I go crazy crazy
All I gotta do is get my hands on you
Betta stay away from me baby

All the young kids learn to dance in the combat zone
Never dared to take a chance
Goin’ home alone
But it gets so fucky cold
When it’s late at night
Leave the foxholes on their own
Do you sleep well at night?
Body count, feeling hot
Body count, keeping warm
Friends are playing with danger
They don’t know where it’s found
With their casual letters
It’s just another chain
You’ve lost the innocence
That you’ve never found
Standing in the dmz
Don’t get turned around
(chorus)
Body count, feeling hot
Body count, vietnam
It’s not the game, it’s a scar
And they won’t let you wear your khakis
And your izods anymore
You can go get shot to hell
They don’t want you anymore because
All the young kids learn to dance in the combat zone
Never dare to take a chance
You’re going home alone
Military metaphors
Are metaphors no more
Keeping up with protocol
You’re dancin’ off to war
(repeat chorus)
Do you sleep well at night?
Body count, vietnam
They can say what they want
But you have your doubts
It’s not what you’ve lost
It’s what your without
When I ran so far
And they just turned away
I doesn’t bother me by the light of day
But at night, I hear your call
Late at night, I hear your call
I saw the mirror that you broke today
I saw the ceiling falling down your way
When they looked at you, you could turn away
You didn’t bother then by the light of day, you’ll stay
But at night, I hear your call
Late at night, I hear your call
You said that you could turn away
I knew that you going to stay
The walls are falling all around
They pinned you down onto the ground
But at night, I hear your call
Vietnam, I hear you call
Words and music by Phil Spector, Ellie Greenwich and Jeff Barry
This is the way I always dreamed it would be
The way that it is,o-oh,when you are holding me
I never had a love of my own
Maybe that's why when we're all alone
I can hear music
I can hear music
Sounds of the city baby seem to disappear
Oh well I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
When ever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near
Loving you it keeps me satisfied
And I can't explain,oh no,the way I'm feeling inside
You look at me we kiss and then
I close my eyes and here it comes again
I can hear music
I can hear music
Sounds of the city baby seem to disappear
Oh well I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
When ever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
When ever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near
I can hear music
Sweet sweet music
When ever you touch me baby
Whenever you're near
Words and music by Gene Pitney
I said "Hello Mary Lou
Goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou
I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou
We'd never part
So Hello Mary Lou
Goodbye heart"
You passed me by one sunny day
Flashed those big brown eyes my way
And oo I wanted you forever more
Now I'm not one that gets around
I swear my feet stuck to the ground
And though I never did see you before
I said "Hello Mary Lou
Goodbye heart
Sweet Mary Lou
I'm so in love with you
I knew Mary Lou
We'd never part
So Hello Mary Lou
Goodbye heart"
So Hello Mary Lou
Goodbye heart"
So Hello Mary Lou
Goodbye heart"
This could be heaven
This could be heaven
This could be heaven for everyone
In these days of cool reflection
You come to me and everything seems alright
In these days of cold affections
You sit by me - and everything's fine
This could be heaven for everyone
This world could be fed, this world could be fun
This could be heaven for everyone
This world could be free, this world could be one
In this world of cool deception
Just your smile can smooth my ride
These troubled days of cruel rejection, hmm
You come to me, soothe my troubled mind
Yeah, this could be heaven for everyone
This world could be fed, this world could be fun
This should be love for everyone, yeah
This world should be free, this world could be one
We should bring love to our daughters and sons
Love, love, love, this could be heaven for everyone
You know that
This could be heaven for everyone
This could be heaven for everyone
Listen - what people do to other souls
They take their lives - destroy their goals
Their basic pride and dignity
Is stripped and torn and shown no pity
When this should be heaven for everyone
This could be heaven
This could be heaven
This could be heaven
For everyone
Just one year of love
Is better than a lifetime alone,
One sentimental moment in your arms
Is like a shooting star right through my heart,
It's always a rainy day without you,
I'm a prisoner of love inside you -
I'm falling apart all around you - yeah.
My heart cries out to your heart,
I'm lonely but you can save me,
My hand reaches out for your hand,
I'm cold but you light the fire in me,
My lips search for your lips,
I'm hungry for your touch,
There's so much left unspoken
And all I can do is surrender
To the moment just surrender
And no one ever told me that love would hurt so much,
Oooh yes it hurtsm
And pain is so close to pleasure,
And all I can do is surrender to your love,
Just surrender to your love,
Just one year of love,
Is better that a lifetime alone,
One sentimental moment in your arms,
Is like a shooting star right through my heart,
It's always a rainy day without you,
I'm a prisoner of love inside you -
I'm falling apart all around you - yeah.
I'm a simple man
With a simple name
From this soil my people came
In this soil remain
Oh yeah. . .
And we made us our shoes
And we trod soft on the land
But the immigrant built roads
On our blood and sand
Oh yeah. . .
White man, white man
Don't you see the light behind your blackened skies
White man, white man
You took away sight to blind my simple eyes
White man, white man
Where you gonna hide
From the hell you've made?
Oh the red man knows war
With his hands and his knives
On the Bible you swore
Fought your battle with lies
Oh yeah. . .
Leave my body in shame
Leave my soul in disgrace
But by every God's name
Say your prayers for your race
White man, white man
Our country was green and all our rivers wide
White man, white man
You came with a gun and soon our children died
White man, white man
Don't you give a light for the blood you've shed?
What is left of your dream?
Just the words on your stone
A man who learned how to teach
Where did she take me
can't see a thing here
I try to move but my body doesn't conform me
Just tyr to rest soon we'll start our journey
then why am I looked up in this cage
now someone opens up the door
I think I've seen this face before
or is this just a fantasy
but in the moment of a blow I see his last journey
then someone other's in control
why did you kill him
his blood is on my hands to I did not want this...failure...
I want to free you from all your soreness
It is to late 'cause I am dead
I'm the queen for one day
I'm the queen for one night
I'm the queen of your fate
I will teach you to scream for silence
Stop what you're doing
it's far to late to rescue me and you
ought to know cause you're the ""healer
Just give me time and I'll give you freedom
you claim my freedom but I'm trapped
so now you want to set me free
still I'm the one that should not be
I really should just fade away and what you're doing
makes no sense cause
I'm lost forever don't try to guide me to utopia
white plastic gloves removing my blanket
and then she tells me
we shall go
I'm the queen for one day
I'm the queen for one night
I'm the queen of your fate
(Album: Cosmos Rocks, 2008)

"What planet is this, mmmh ?
Let there be rock 'n' roll
It's a Saturday night and I'm home alone
With the music on quiet I'm flying solo
Then my feet start moving to the sound of the beat
Put the music up loud hear it in the street
Then the neighbours start banging on my front door
Throw the door wide open saying what's your point
Come on in let's rock this joint
We got the whole house rocking
We got the whole house rocking
We got the whole house rocking
We got the whole house rocking
We got the whole house rocking
To the mighty power of rock 'n' roll
We dance out of the door, dance into the street
And all the people are swaying to the musical beat
We rock down the road and down to the town
And all the people stare and smile and get down
Then the police man is saying "stop this noise"
But the beat takes over now he's one of the boys
The beat's taken over now he's one of the boys
Come on down let's rock this town
We got the whole town rocking
We got the whole town rocking
We got the whole town rocking
We got the whole town rocking
We got the whole town rocking
To the mighty power of rock 'n' roll
Let's go
Let it roll
Are you ready?
Said are you ready?
The cosmos rocks
Across seven seas through the Panama,
Now they're rockin' on beaches and they're rockin' in bars
Don't ask me how and don't ask me why
From Miami Beach down to old Bondi
There's a rock 'n' roll fever in every place
Next thing you know they'll be rockin' out in space
Come on down let's rock this place
Come on down and
Sock it to me
We got the whole world rocking
We got the whole world rocking
We got the whole world rocking
We got the whole world rocking
We got the whole world rocking
To the mighty mighty mighty power
We got the cosmos rocking
We got the cosmos rocking
We got the universe rocking
We got the cosmos rocking
We got the cosmos rocking

She's got a way
Walks, talks, like she's unafraid
Blue, blond, royalty and fame
She's got all of it in spades
She's got a way
With all the games and boys she's ever played
With all the rules she decided to bend and break
Given the chance she'd do it all again

(Ahh) Kill the Queen for the crown everybody
Chorus:
Oh! She wants the throne
(she wants the throne)Â
Oh! She wants control
(Kill the Queen for the crown everybody)
I guess princess wasn't enough
Heart's like doves, she's the Queen of the clubs
Oh! She wants control
(Kill the Queen for the crown everybody)
She's unaware
Of all the girls waiting to fill her chair
Jealousy and gossip fill the air
She's playing solitaire
They never told her
Keep looking over your shoulder
Keep friends close and enemies closer
After all...
(Ahh) Kill the Queen for the crown everybody
Chorus:
Oh! She wants the throne
(she wants the throne)Â
Oh! She wants control
(Kill the Queen for the crown everybody)
I guess princess wasn't enough
Heart's like doves, she's the Queen of the clubs
Oh! She wants control
(Kill the Queen for the crown everybody)
Locked up in the V.I.P.
Behind the velvet rope
Show me I.D.
Locked up in the V.I.P.
Behind the velvet rope
Don't need I.D.
(Ahh) Kill the Queen for the crown everybody
Chorus:
Oh! She wants the throne
(she wants the throne)Â
Oh! She wants control
(Kill the Queen for the crown everybody)
I guess princess wasn't enough
Heart's like doves, she's the Queen of the clubs
Oh! She wants control
I love
She makes me
She is my heart
She is my love
She is my love
I know
I'm jealous of her
She makes me need
She is my love
She is my love
Who knows who she'll make me
As I lie in her cocoon
And the world will surely heal my ills
I'm warm and terrified
She makes me so
I know the day I leave her
I'll love her still
She is my love
She is my love
Who knows where my dreams will end
I'll follow as they grow
But the world will know how long I'll take
And if I'm very slow she makes me so
She is my love
Friends Will Be Friends Will Be Friends . . .
Written by John Deacon, Freddie Mercury
Friends will be friends
Friends will be friends
Friends will be friends
Friends will be friends
Friends will be friends
Another red letter day
So the pound has dropped and the children are creating
The other half ran away
Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber
Got a pain in the chest
Doctors on strike what you need is a rest
It's not easy love, but you've got friends you can trust
Friends will be friends
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you're through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand 'cos friends will be friends - right till the end
Now it's a beautiful day
The postman delivered a letter from your lover
Only a 'phone call away
You tried to track him down but somebody stole his number
As a matter of fact
You're getting used to life without him in your way
It's so easy now, 'cos you got friends you can trust
Friends will be friends
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you're through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand 'cos friends will be friends - right till the end
It's so easy now, 'cos you got friends you can trust
Friends will be friends
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention
Friends will be friends
When you're through with life and all hope is lost
Hold out your hand 'cos right till the end - friends will be friends
Yeah yeah
Under Pressure (Rah Mix)
Written by David Bowie, Queen
You say New York, New York is dangerous
Cause you read that where you may
Even a blind man could see that's not so
Love love love love love.....
People on streets
Ha ha haa ey
Mm ba ba de
Um bum ba de
Um bu bu bum da de
Why don't we give all that one more chance?
Pressure pressure pressure pressure pressure
Pressure pressure pressure pressure pressure
Pushing down on me
Pressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure that brings a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
Um ba ba be
Um ba ba be
De day da
Ee day da - that's o.k.
It's the terror of knowing
What the world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming 'Let me out'
Pray tomorrow - gets me higher
Pressure on people - people on streets
Day day de day day de
Day day de day day de
Day day de day day de
Day day de day day de
Day day de day day de
O.k.
Chippin' around kick my brains around the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours
Ee do ba be
Ee da ba ba ba
Um bo bo
Be lap
People on streets - ee da de da de
People on streets - ee da de da de da de da
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming 'Let me out'
Tomorrow - gets me higher higher high
Pressure on people - people on streets
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn
Why - why - why?
Love love love love love love love
Insanity laughs under pressure we're breaking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more chance
Why can't we give love give love give love give love
give love give love give love give love give love
'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the (People on streets) edge of the night
And loves (People on streets) dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
Hey little babe you're changing
Babe are you feeling sore?
There ain't no use in pretending
You don't wanna play no more
It's plain that you ain't no baby
What would your mother say?
You're all dressed up like a lady
How come you behave this way?
Sail away sweet sister
Sail across the sea
May be you'll find somebody
To love you half as much as me
My heart is always with you
No matter what you do
Sail away sweet sister
I'll always be in love with you
Forgive me for what I told you
My heart makes a fool of me
You know I'll never hold you
I know that you gotta be free
Yeah
Sail away sweet sister
Sail across the sea
Maybe you'll find somebody
To love you half as much as me
Take it the way you want it
When they let you down my friend
Sail away sweet sister
Back to my arms again
Hot child don't you know you're young
You got your whole life ahead of you?
Ahhh, you can throw it away too soon
Way too soon
Yeah
Sail away sweet sister
Sail across the sea
Maybe you'll find somebody
Gonna love you half as much as me, yeah
My heart is always with you
No matter what you do
Sail away sweet sister

it is you that rule our destiny
in your heart you bear
all the future of this earth
I tell you if you wasn't here
the end would be near. no title of this world can give you
royality of birth
you could wear diamonds and pearls
into a queen you still can't be turned
it's a profession you can't learn
and it's a title you can't earn
all true born queens hold firm
'cause it's you that makes the world go 'round
make nobody put you down you have to wear the crown
it's you that makes the world go 'round
know the value of yourself and make nobody put you down
bridge:
don't let them tell you who you are
never ever bow no no no no
keep you temple clean
queens, queens, queens, queens, queens
Chorus
Around midnight he locked in tight to his frustrations, she told her tales
With all she could, that's right. He wasn't half as good at cold manitpulation,
But he just listened as he should yea.
You don't know, but it will show. you'll make a better man of me.
Queen, it seems you hold my heart within your hands
Queen, i mean you make me sorry, but you don't know.
Queen, i dream you made me bleed and just for show.
But you won't let me go.
She played hist heart she played his mind with every finger.
Untill he finally lost his soul yea.
He said a thousand times her captive rhythms still linger.
But she just crucified him cold
You don't know, but it will show, you'll make a better man of me.
Queen, it seems you hold my heart within your hands
Queen, i mean you make me sorry, but you don't know.
Queen, i dream you made me bleed and just for show.
But you won't let me go.
Queen, it seems you hold my heart within your hands.
Queen, i mean you make me sorry baby but you don't know. yeah
Queen, i dream you made me bleed and just for show
but you won't let me go.
Queen, i dream you made me bleed and just for show.
But you won't let me go
won't let me go baby.
Feels like you're tearin' me apart baby
Oh you made me bleed and just or show baby.
you never heard my song before the music was too loud
but now i think you hear me well for now we both know how
no star can light our way in this cloud of dark and fear
but some day, one day...
funny how the pages turn and hold us in between
a misty castle waits for you and you shall be a queen
today the cloud it hangs over us and all is grey
but some day, one day...
when i was you and you were me and we were very young
together took us nearly there the rest may not be sung
so still the cloud it hangs over us and we're alone
but some day, one day...
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Each mornin' I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believin' you
But I just can't get no relief, Lord
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
I work hard every day of my life
I work till I ache my bones
At the end I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down on my knees
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord, somebody, ooh, somebody
Can anybody find me, somebody to love?
(He works hard)
Everyday, I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm goin' crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
Got no common sense
I got nobody left to believe
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Oh Lord
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me, someone to love?
I got no rhythm
I just keep losin' my beat
I'm okay, I'm alright
Ain't gonna face no defeat
I just gotta get out of this prison cell
Someday I'm gonna be free, Lord
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Find me somebody to love
Well you're just 17 and all you wanna do is disappear
You know what I mean there's a lot of spacebetween your ears
The way that you touch don't feel nu nothin'
Hey hey hey hey, it was the D.N.A.
Hey hey hey hey, that made me this way
Do you know, do you know, do you know, just how I feel
Do you know, do you know, do you know, just how I feel
Sheer heart attack

Gotta feelin', gotta feelin', gotta feelin', like a paralyse

Turn on the TV lit it drip right down in your eyes
Hey hey hey hey, it was the D.N.A.
Hey hey hey hey. that made me this way

I was nothin' but a city boy
My trumpet was my only toy
I've been blowin' my horn
Since I knew I was born
But there ain't no nobody wants to know
I've been
Sleepin' on the sidewalk
Rollin' down the road
I may get hungry
But I sure want to go home
So round the corner comes a limousine
And the biggest grin I ever seen
Come on sunny won't you sign
Right along the dotted line
What are you sayin' Are you playin'
Sure you don't mean me?
Sleepin' on the sidewalk
Rollin' down the road
I may get hungry
But I sur don't wanna go home
(tell you what happened . . .)
They took me to a room without a table
They said "blow your trumpet into here"
I played around as well I was able
And soon we had the record of the year
i was a legend all thruogh the land
I was blowin' to a million fans
Nothin' was a-missin'
All the people want to listen
You'd thought I was a happy man
And I was
Sleepin' like a princess
never touch the road
I don't get hungry
And I sure don't want to go home
(have to have some fun . . .)
Now they tell me that I ain't so fashionable
An' I owe the man a million bucjks a year
So I told 'em where to stick the fancy lable
It's just me and the road from here
Back to playin' and layin'
I'm back on the game
Sleepin' on the sidewalk Rollin' down the road
I sure get hungry and I Sure o wanna go home
fear me you lords and lady preachers
i descend upon your earth from the skies
i command your very souls you unbelievers
bring before me what is mine
the seven seas of rhye
can you hear me you peers and privvy counselors
i stand before you naked to the eyes
i will destroy any man who dares abuse my trust
i swear that you'll be mine
the seven seas of rhye
sister - i live and lie for you
mister - do and i'll die
you are mine i possess you
i belong to you forever
storm the master-marathon i'll fly through
by flash and thunder-fire i'll survive
then i'll defy the laws of nature and come out alive
then i'll get you
be gone with you - you shod and shady senators
give out the good, leave out the bad evil cries
i challenge the mighty titan and his troubadours
and with a smile
Words and music by Brian May
I love she makes me
She is my heart
She is my love
She is my love
I know you're jealous of her
She makes me need
She is my love
She is my love
Who knows who she'll make me
As I lie in her cocoon
But the world will surely heal my ills
I'm warm and terrified
She makes me so
I know the day I leave her
I'd love her still
She is my love
She is my love
Who knows where my dreams will end
I'll follow as they grow
But the world will know
How long I'll take
And if I'm very slow
She makes me so
She is my love
She is my love
Seaside - whenever you stroll along with me I'm merely contemplating what
you feel inside meanwhile I ask you to be my Clementine -
You say you will if you could but you can't - I love you madly -
Let my imagination run away with you gladly -
A brand new angle - highly commendable - Seaside Rendezvous -
I feel so romantic - can we do it again
Can we do it again sometime,
Fantastic, c'est la vie mesdames et messieurs
And at the peak of the season, the
Mediterranean -, this time of year, it's so fashionable,
I feel like dancing - in the rain,
Can I have a volunteer -
Dancing - what a damn jolly good idea -
It's such a jollification - as a matter of fact, so tres charmant my dear -
Underneath the moonlight - together we'll sail across the sea -
Reminiscing every night
Meantime - I ask you to be my valentine
You said you'd have to tell your daddy you can I'll be your Valentino -
We'll ride upon an omnibus and then the casino -
Get a new facial - start a sensational -
Seaside Rendezvous - so adorable,
Seaside Rendezvous -
Seaside Rendezvous -
(Vocal Orchestration of Brass - Roger Taylor
Well she's gone gone this morning
see what a fool i've been
for so long
see what a fool i've been
didn't leave no letter didn't leave no warning
i guess i'm all to blame oh lord
guess i'm all to blame
my little dog ain't too hungry he kept on barking
said it just it just don't seem the same
well i got so lonely
went and told my neighbour
she said mm mm mm mm mm
oh lord what a fool i've been
and she told what to do
well she's gone gone this morning
see what a fool i've been
for so long
It started off so well
They said we made a perfect pair
I clothed myself in your glory and your love
How I loved you, how I cried
Years of care and loyalty
Were nothing but a sham it seems
Years belie, we lived the lie
"I love you 'til I die"
Save me, save me, save me
I can't face this life alone
Save me, save me, save me
I'm naked and I'm far from home
The slate will soon be clean
I'll erase the memories
To start again with somebody new
Was it all wasted, all that love ?
I hang my head and I advertise
A soul for sale or rent
I have no heart, I'm cold inside
I have no real intent
Save me, save me, save me
I can't face this life alone
Save me, save me
Oh, I'm naked and I'm far from home
Each night I cry
And still believe the lie
"I love you until I die"
Save me, save me, save me, oh
Just save me, save me, oh, save
Don't let me face my life alone
Save me, save me
Scandal - now you've left me all the world's gonna know
Scandal - they're gonna turn our lives into a freak show
They'll see the heart ache, they'll see the love break
They'll hear me pleading, We'll say for God's sake
Over and over and over again
Scandal - now you've left me there's no healing the wounds
Hey scandal - and all the world can make us out to be fools
Here come the bad news, open the flood gates
They'll leave us bleeding, we'll say you're cheapskates
Over and over and over again
So let them know when they stare, it's just a private affair
They'll have us hung in the air and tell me what do they care
It's only a life to be twisted and broken
They'll see the heart ache,they'll see our love break - yeah
They'll hear me pleading,I'll say for God's sake
Over and over and over and over again
Scandal scandal
Scandal
Scandal yes you're breaking my heart again
Scandal yes you're loving on out again
Today the headlines tomorrow hard times
And no-one ever really knows the truth from the lies
And in the end the story deeper must hide
Deeper and deeper and deeper inside
Scandal, scandal
"Just walking down the street
One cloudless sunny day
Just minding my own business
Thinking my thoughts - nothing much to say
When suddenly I got hit
Imagine my surprise
Your smile came up and zapped
Me right between the eyes
I'd never seen anything to compare
With your smile
I'd never seen anything
That came within miles
My heart got hijacked by you
Stuck in the traffic
Stuck at the lights
What do I see
Some stupid bimbo
In a fast car next to me
She takes off
Imagine my disgust
Like a bat outta hell
I get to eat her dust
I never known anything to compare
With her laugh
I never known anything
That counted by half
My heart got hijacked by you
Hijack my heart (Hijack my heart)
Hijack my heart hijack hijack hijack
Steal my heart
Hijack my heart (Hijack my heart)
Hijack my heart
Look at the city
Look at the streets
What do you see ?
Look at the faces
Of the people - they all wanted me
Suddenly hit by something
They don't get a chance
It comes out of nowhere
Right out of the blue
Cos I've never seen anything
To compare with your smile
I've never seen anything
That came within miles
My heart got hijacked by you
Hijack my heart
Now you got a hold on me
You hijacked my heart
But you won't let me be
Stole my heart
Threw away the key
Ooh baby what's become of me
You hijacked my heart
Now you got a hold on me
I can dim the lights and sing you songs full of sad things
We can do the tango just for two
I can serenade and gently play on your heart strings
Be your valentino just for you
Ooh love - ooh loverboy
What're you doin' tonight, hey boy
Set my alarm, turn on my charm
That's because I'm a good old-fashioned lover boy
Ooh let me feel your heartbeat (Grow faster, faster)
Ooh ooh can you feel my love heat
Come on and sit on my hot-seat of love
And tell me how do you feel right after-all
I'd like for you and I to go romancing
Say the word - your wish is my command
Ooh love - ooh loverboy
What're you doin' tonight, hey boy
Write my letter
Feel much better
And use my fancy patter on the telephone
When I'm not with you
I think of you always
(I miss those long hot summer nights)
I miss you
When I'm not with you
Think of me always
Love you - love you
Hey boy where do you get it from
Hey boy where did you go ?
I learned my passion in the good old
Fashioned school of loverboys
Dining at the Ritz we'll meet at nine precisely
One two three four five six seven eight nine o' clock
I will pay the bill, you taste the wine
Driving back in style, in my saloon will do quite nicely
Just take me back to yours that will be fine (Come on and get it)
Ooh love, (There he goes again just like a good old-fashioned lover boy)
Ooh loverboy
What're you doin' tonight, hey boy
Everything's all right
Just hold on tight
That's because I'm a good old-fashioned fashioned lover boy
Get down make love
Get down make love
Get down make love
Get down make love -
You take my body -
I give you heat
You say you're hungry
I give you meat
I suck your mind
You blow my head
Make love -
Inside your bed - everybody get down make love
Get down make love
Get down make love
Get down make love
Everytime I get hot
You wanna cool down
Everytime I get high
You say you wanna come down
You say it's enough
In fact it's too much
Everytime I get a - Get down, get down
Make love -
I can squeeze - You can shake me
I can feel - when you break me
Come on so heavy - when you take me -
You make love, you make love, you make love, you make love
You can make everybody get down make love
Get down make love
Everytime I get high
You wanna come down
Everytime I get hot
You say you wanna cool down
You say it's enough
In fact it's too much
Everytime I wanna, get down, get down get down -
Get down make love
Get down make love

"Well my temperature is rising got my feet on the floor
Crazy people rocking 'cause they want to go more
Let me in baby I don't know what you got
But you better take it easy 'cause this place is hot
And I'm so glad you made it, so glad you made it
You got to gimme some lovin', gimme gimme some lovin'
Well I feel so good, everybody's getting high
You better take it easy 'cause the place is on fire
Been a hard day and I don't know what to do
Wait a minute Baby, this could happen to you
Well I feel so good, everybody's getting high
You better take it easy 'cause the place is on fire
Been a hard day nothing went too good
...garage and water from the sprinklers
It also left a man's decapitated body lying on the floor
next to his own severed head
a head which at this time has no name
'I know his name'
Here I am I'm the master of your destiny
I am the one the only one, I am the god of kingdom come
Gimme the prize, just gimme the prize
Give me your kings let me squeeze then in my hands
Your puny princes, Your so called leaders of your land
I'll eat them whole before I'm done
The battle's fought and the game is won
I am the one the only one, I am the god of kingdom come
Gimme the prize just gimme the prize
'Now you die'
'I have something to say,it's better to burn out than to fade away...
There can be only one'
Move over, I said move over
Hey, hey, hey, clear the way
There's no escape from my authority - Didn't I tell you
I am the one the only one I am the god of kingdom come
Gimme the prize just gimme the prize
I am the one the only one, I am the god of kingdom come
Gimme the prize
'THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE'

Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen:

Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us:
God save the Queen.

I think I'm going back
To the things I learnt so well in my youth
I think I'm returning to
Those days when I was young enough to know the truth
Now there are no games
To only pass the time
No more colouring books
No Christmas bells to chime
But thinking young and growing older is no sin
And I can't play the game of life to win
I can recall a time
When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend
And now I think I've got
A lot more than just my toys to lend
Now there's more to do
Than watch my sailboat glide
And every day can be
My magic carpet ride
And I can play hide and seek with my fears
And live my days instead of counting my years
Then everyone debates
The true reality
I'd rather see the world
The way it used to be
A little bit of freedom's all we lack
So catch me if you can
I'm going back
Take good care of what you've got
My father said to me
As he puffed his pipe and Baby B.
He dandled on his knee
Don't fool with fools who'll turn away
Keep all Good Company
Oo Hoo Oo Hoo
Take care of those you call your own
And keep Good Company
Soon I grew and happy too
My very good friends and me
We'd play all day with Sally J.
The girl from number four
And very soon I begged her won't you
Keep me Company
Now marriage is an insinuation sure
My wife and I our needs and nothing more All my friends by a year
By and by disappear
But we're safe enough behind our door.
I flourished in my humble trade
My reputation grew
The work devoured my waking hours
But when my time was through
Reward of all my efforts my own
Limited Company
I hardly noticed Sall as we
Pated Company
All through the years in the end it appears
There was never really anyone but me
Now I'm old I puff my pipe
But no-one's there to see
I ponder on the lesson of
My life's insanity
Take care of those you call your own
And Keep Good Company

"Great King Rat died today
Born on the twenty first of May
Died syphilis forty four on his birthday
Every second word he swore
Yes he was the son of a whore
Always wanted by the law
Wouldn't you like to know ?
Wouldn't you like to know people ?
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
Now what did I tell you
Would you like to see ?
Now hear this
Where will I be tomorrow ?
Will I beg ?, Will I borrow ?
I don't care, I don't care anyway
Come on, come on the time is right
The man is evil and that is right
I told you ah yes I told you
And that's no lie oh no no
Wouldn't you like to know ?
Wouldn't you like to know ?
Wouldn't you like to know ?
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
Now what did I tell you
Would you like to see ?
Show me
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know people people
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
Now what did I tell you
Would you like to see?
Hit it
Now listen all you people
Put out the good and keep the bad
Don't believe all you read in the bible
You sinners get in line
Saints you leave far behind
Very soon you're gonna be his disciple
Don't listen to what mama says
Not a word - not a word mama says
Or else you'll find yourself being the rival
Sure, the great lord before he died
Knelt sinners by his side
And said you're going to realise tomorrow, oh woh oh woh oh woh
No I'm not going to tell you
What you already know
'Cause time and time again
The old man said it all a long time ago
Come on come on the time is right
This evil man will fight
I told you once before
Hear it
Wouldn't you like to know?
Wouldn't you like to know?
Just like I said before
Great King Rat was a dirty old man
And a dirty old man was he
The last time I tell you
Here we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Make the bed light the light
Lady Mercy won't be home tonight
We don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
We're just waiting for the hammer to fall
Oh, ev'ry night and every day
A little piece of me is falling away
But lift your face the Western Way
Build your muscles as your body decays
Toe your line and play their game
Let the anesthetic cover it all
Till one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall
Rich or poor or famous
For your truth it's all the same
Lock your door the rain is pouring
Through your window pane
Baby now your struggle's all in vain
For we grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the mushroom cloud
Convinced our voices can't be heard
We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louder
What the hell we fighting for ?
Just surrender and it won't hurt at all
You just got time to say your prayers
Don't let go don't lose your mystique
Wait a little longer
Tomorrow brings another feast
Don't let go don't lose your reputation
Thank God you're still alive
You're still in one piece
Hang on in there don't lose your appetite
Hang on in there forget the danger signs
Pray for that magical moment (straight ahead) and it will
appear
Don't fight for lost emotions
Wait for the sunrise
And everything will seem so clear
(Look straight ahead look straight ahead)
Hang on in there (hang on in there)
Hang on in there (hang on in there)
Your wish will be granted
All your problems will disappear
Don't be a fool you haven't reached your peak
You got a fast car racing up inside you
Your life is incomplete
Hang on in there hang on in there
Pray for that magical moment and it will appear
(Wait for that moment)
Wait for the sunrise
Just wait and see and it will seem so clear
Let's go let's go
OK now do the change now
Yeah hang on in there
Hang on in there
Yeah yeah
And you're rushing headlong you've got a new goal
And you're rushing headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping no there's nothin'
You can do about it
There's nothin' you can do
No there's nothin' you can do about it
No there's nothin' you can, nothin' you can
Nothin' you can do about it
And you're rushing headlong you've got a new goal
And you're rushing headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping no there's nothin'
You can do about it
He used to be a man with a stick in his hand
Hoop diddy diddy - Hoop diddy do
She used to be a woman with a hot dog stand
Hoop diddy diddy - Hoop diddy do
Now you've got soup in the laundry bag
Now you've got strings, you're gonna lose your rag
You're gettin' in a fight
Then it ain't so groovy when you're screaming in the night
Let me out of this cheap 'B'movie
Headlong down the highway and you're rushing
Headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping and you can't stop rockin'
And there's nothin' you can, nothin' you can
Nothin' you can do about it
When a red hot man meets a white hot lady
Hoop diddy diddy - Hoop diddy do
Soon the fire starts a raging gets 'em more than half crazy
Hoop diddy diddy - Hoop diddy do
They start freaking everyway you turn
You can't start walking cause your feet got burned
It ain't no time to figure wrong from right
Cause reason's out the window
Better hold on tight - you're rushin'
Headlong - headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping

For a perfect life, find a perfect girl
You gotta follow that dream to a perfect world
I've been a searcher, an adventurer too
This ride still runs, I wanna ride with you
This ride still runs, wanna ride with you
(Follow that dream
Surf's up, school's out
Surf's up, school's out)
In the town and the country
We all lay and dreamed our dreams
Then we found the world is tough
And all is not quite what it seems
Gotta take it by the horns
Gotta seize your precious day
Gotta follow your dream
(Follow that dream
Follow that dream
Follow that dream
Surf's up, school's out
Follow that dream
Surf's up, school's out
Surf's up
Follow that dream
Surf's up, school's out
Surf's up, school's out
Follow that dream)
You're So Square (Baby I Don't Care)
Written by Leiber, Stoller
Okay, we're gonna fool around a bit, come on
You don't like crazy things
You don't like rockin' baby
You just wanna go to the movie show
Sit there holdin' hands
You're so square (baby I don't care)
Do wop, do wop
Do wop, do wop
I don't ???? (do wop)
I don't ???? (do wop)
I only wanna love you baby
I guess it's just because
You're so square (baby I don't care)
Do wop, do wop
Do wop, do wop
I don't need ??? dances
But I do
????
I do I do I do
I don't like crazy things (do wop)
I don't like rockin' baby (do wop)
I just wanna go to a movie show
Sit there holdin' hands
You're so square
Baby I don't care (do wop, do wop)
Baby I don't care (do wop, do wop)
Baby I don't care (do wop, do wop)
You're so beautiful, you just lay it on me
Foxy lady, you really are the greatest show in town
You want to play,
You wanna eat your cake and have it your way
You got it easy and you don't give a damn
Fooling around, you just keep fooling around with me.
Walking down the street, people watching closely
Such a tease, you can turn on any man you want
You masquerade,
You're the catch of the season every night and day
You, you, you don't have any time for me
You just keep fooling around with me.
Fooling around - everywhere I go you're the only,
Only, only sexy lady
Fooling around, all you do is keep me hanging around
You're really so hard to please
You've gotta really watch that, baby!
You just, you just, fooling around with me
You just, you just, fooling around with me
You keep fooling, you keep fooling
Fooling, fooling, fooling, fooling,
Fooling...
Want to play, but you always want it all your own way
You got it easy but you don't give a damn
Fooling around, you just keep fooling around with me.
You just keep fooling around with me, yeah
I'm a fool, fool, fool, fool for you baby,
Keep fooling around
I'm a fool, fool, fool, for you sexy baby,
Keep fooling around
I'm a fool, fool, fool, fool for you baby,
Keep fooling around
It's so easy, but I can't do it
So risky but, I gotta chance it
It's so funny, there's nothing to laugh about
My money, that's all you want to talk about
I can see what you want me to be, but I'm no fool
It's in the lap of the gods, Wo wo la la la
I can see what you want me to be, but I'm no fool
No beginning there's no ending, there's no meaning in my pretending
Believe me life goes on and on and on, Forgive me when I ask you where do I belong
You say I (you can do it) can't (you can do it)
(You can go and) set you free from me, but that's not true
It's in the lap of the gods Wo wo la la la
I can see what you want me to be, but I'm no fool
It's in the lap of the gods Wo wo la la la wo
Wo wo la la wo wo woooh, but that's not true
It's in the lap of the gods
Wo wo la la la wo, Wo wo la la wo wo woooh
But I'm no fool, It's in the lap of the gods
Wo wo la la la wo, Wo wo la la wo wo woooh
(Album: Greatest Hits 3, 1999)
"Woh - everything I do I do for you
Oh yeah
We touch and you're afraid of me
And we burn and now I'm at your feet
High speed, but you know you're in safe hands
Ooh, in the dark we make a brighter light
From one spark to the horizon wide
We trust, and together we tame the land, yeah
Oh you'd be forgiven if you think you're dreaming
But we're working night and day to make a dream come true, yeah
Everything I do is driven by you
Oh, come on babe
Oh well it's tough to make a journey through
The right stuff is dead ahead of you and me
And you know we still got time
Whoo, hold on tight to the driving wheel
This ride is really out of line
Raw deal, but there's no other that's worth a dime
You know I love you but you drive me crazy
'Cos you're saying all the things I want to say to you
(You say) Everything I do is driven by you
Everything we do, oh yeah, everything we do
Everything we do, everything we do
Everything we do is driven by you
Inner children lost their way
Now they know the price you pay
I'm holding on to life with you
'Cos life without you just won't do
Driven by you
Ahh, you know we're never gonna know who's dreaming
But we're working night and day to make the dream come true
Yeah everything I do is driven by you
Everything we do, everything we do, everything we do
Yeah everything we do, everything we do, yeah everything we do
Everything we do, everything we do, everything we do..
... is driven by, driven by, driven by you
Yeah
If you're searching out for something -
Don't try so hard
If you're feeling kinda nothing -
Don't try so hard
When your problems seem like mountains
You feel the need to find some answers
You can leave them for another day
Don't try so hard
But if you fall and take a tumble -
It won't be far
If you fail you mustn't grumble -
Thank your lucky stars
Just savour every mouthful
And treasure every moment
When the storms are raging round you
Stay right where you are
Don't try so hard
Oooh don't take it all to heart
It's only fools they make these rules
Don't try so hard
One day you'll be a sergeant major
Oh you'll be so proud
Screaming out your bloody orders
Hey but not too loud
Polish all your shiny buttons
Dressed as lamb instead of mutton
But you never had to try
To stand out from the crowd
Oh what a beautiful world
Is this the life for me
Oh what a beautiful world
It's the simple life for me
Oh don't try so hard
Oh don't take it all to heart
It's only fools - they make these rules
Don't try so hard
Intro:
Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time

around in ectasy. So don't stop me now.
Don't stop me'cause I'm havin' a good time,

Vers 1:
I'm a shooting star leaping trough the sky,
like a tiger, defying the laws of gravity.
I'm a racing car, passing by like lady Godiva.
I'm gonna go, go, go. There's no stoppin' me.
I'm burning through the sky, yeah.
Two hundred degrees, thats why they call me mister Fahrenheit. I'm trav'ling at the speed of light.
I wanna make a supersonic man out of you.
Chorus:
Don't stop me now,I'm havin' such a good time,

Don't stop me now.
I don't wanna stop at all.
Vers 2:
I'm a rocket ship on my way to mars, on a colision course. I'm a satellite, I'm out of control, I'm
a sex machine ready to reload, like an atom bomb,
about to oh, oh, oh oh, oh, explode.
I'm burning through the sky, yeah.
Two hundred degrees, thats why they call me mister Fahrenheit.I'm trav'ling at the speed of light.
I wanna make a supersonic woman of you.

a good time, just give me a call.
Don't stop me now.
Don't stop me now.
I don't wanna stop at all.
Coda:
It's the sad-eyed, goodbye, yesterday moments I
remember
It's the bleak street, week-kneed partings i recall
It's the mistier mist
The hazier days
The brighter sun
And the easier lays
There's all the more reason for laughing and crying
When you're younger and life isn't too hard at all
It's the fantastic drowse of the afternoon Sundays
That bored you to rages of tears
The unending pleadings, to waste all your good times
In thoughts of your middle-aged years
It's a vertical hold, all the things that you're told
For the everyday hero it all turns to zero
And there's all the more reason for living or dying
When you're young and your troubles are all very small
Out here on the street
We'd gather and meet
And scuff up the sidewalk with endlessly restless feet
Half of the time
We'd broaden our minds
More in the pool hall than we did in the school hall
With the downtown chewing-gum bums
Watching the nightlife, the lights and the fun
Never wanted to be the boy next door
Always thought I'd be something more
But it ain't easy for a downtown boy
It ain't easy at all
Thinkin' it right, doin' it wrong
It's easier from an armchair
Waves of alternatives wash at my sleepiness
Ah, you gonna take me home tonight
Ah, down beside that red firelight
Are you gonna let it all hang out
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round
Hey, I was just a skinny lad, never knew no good from bad
But I knew life before I left my nursery
Left alone with big fat fannys, she was such a naughty nanny
Heap big woman you made a bad boy out of me
Hey, hey
Whoo
I've been singing with my band, across the wire, across the land
I seen ev'ry blue eyed floozy on the way
But their beauty and their style went kind of smooth after a while
Take me to them dirty ladies every time, Shawn
Oh, won't you take me home tonight?
Oh, down beside your red firelight
Oh, and you give it all you got
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round
Fat bottomed girls, you make the rockin' world go round
Hey, listen here
Now your mortgages and homes, I got stiffness in the bones
Ain't no beauty queens in this locality, I tell you
Oh, but I still get my pleasure still got my greatest treasure
Heap big woman, you gone made a big man of me, now get this
Oh, you gonna take me home tonight
Oh, down beside that red firelight
Oh, you gonna let it all hang out
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round
Get on your bikes and ride
Ooh yeah, oh yeah, them fat bottomed girls
Fat bottomed girls, yeah yeah yeah, yeah
All right
Ride 'em cowboys
Fat bottomed girls
Don't touch me now
Don't hold me now
Don't break the spell Darling, now you are near
Look in my eyes
And speak to me
The special promises I want to hear
Las palabras de amor
Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor
Love me slow and gently
One foolish world, so many souls
Senselessly hurled through the never ending cold
And all for fear, and all for greed
Speak any tongue but for God's sake we need
Las palabras de amor
Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor
Let me know, this night and evermore
This room is bare
This night is cold
We're far apart and I'm growing old
But while we live, we'll meet again
So then my love we may whisper once more
It's you I adore
Las palabras de amor
Let me hear the words of love
Despacito mi amor
Touch me now
Las palabras de amor
Let us share the words of love
For evermore
You don't fool me
You don't fool me...
Da, da da da dah
Da da da dah
Da da dah...
You don't fool me - those pretty eyes
That sexy smile - you don't fool me
You don't rule me - you're no surprise
You're telling lies - you don't fool me
Mmm, mama said be careful of that girl
Mama said you know that she's no good
Mama said be cool, don't you be no fool
Yup bup ba ba ba ba da da da dah !
You don't fool me
You don't fool me, you don't fool me
She'll take you
You don't fool me, and break you
You don't rule me, you don't fool me
You don't fool me, she'll take you
You don't fool me, and break you
Sooner or later you'll be playing by her rules
Baby you don't fool me, yeah
You don't fool me, you don't have to say 'don't mind'
You don't have to teach me things I know
Sooner or later you'll playing by her rules
Oh, (fool you) oh, (rule you) she'll take you (take you)
And break you (break you)
Yeah
Mama said be cool
Mama said she'll take you , and break you
Ba ba ba ba bap bap ba baah
La la la la la lah
You don't fool me
Empty spaces
what are we living for
abandoned places
I guess we know the score
on and on
does anybody know what we are looking for
Another hero
another mindless crime
behind the curtain
in the Pantomime
hold the line
does anybody want to take it anymore
The show must go on (2x)
yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
my make-up may be flaking
but my Smile still stays on
Whatever happens
I'll leave it all to chance
another heartache, Another failed romance
on and on
Does anybody know what we are Living for
I guess I'm learning
I must be warmer now
I'll soon be turning
Round the corner now
outside the Dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark I'm aching to be free
The show must go on (2x)
yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
my make-up may be flaking
but my Smile still stays on
My soul is painted
like the wings Of butterflies
fairytales of yesterday
will grow but never die
I can fly my friends
The show must go on (2x)
I'll face It with a grin
I'm never giving in
On with the show
I'll top the bill I'll overkill
I Have to find the will to carry on
On with the (2x) show
