Sweet (also referred to as the Sweet) were a British rock band that rose to worldwide fame in the 1970s as one of the most prominent glam rock acts, with the classic line-up of lead vocalist Brian Connolly, bass player Steve Priest, guitarist Andy Scott, and drummer Mick Tucker.
Sweet were formed in 1968 and achieved their first hit "Funny Funny" in 1971 after teaming up with songwriters Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman and record producer Phil Wainman. During 1971 and 1972, their musical style followed a marked progression from the Archies-like bubblegum style of "Funny Funny" to a Who-influenced hard rock style supplemented by a striking use of high-pitched backing vocals.
The band achieved notable success in the UK charts, with thirteen Top 20 hits during the 1970s alone, with "Block Buster!" (1973) topping the chart, followed by three consecutive number two hits in "Hell Raiser" (1973), "The Ballroom Blitz" (1973) and "Teenage Rampage" (1974). Their first self-written and produced single "Fox on the Run" (1975) also reached number two on the UK charts. From 1976 the success started to decline and Sweet had their last Top 10 hit in 1978 with "Love is Like Oxygen". The year after, Connolly left the group to start a solo career and the remaining members continued as a threesome until they finally disbanded in 1981.
In the discos and the bars
They're playing eyes games
Venus is watching Mars
They're playing eye games
Come and try games
They're playing eye games
Electric attraction
In the night air
Eyes meet and break away
You can't show her you care
It's one of love's puzzles
The secrets in her eyes
Does it mean I'm on the right track
Is there a chance for romance
In the discos and the bars
They're playing eyes games
Venus is watching Mars
They're playing eye games
Come and try games
They're playing eye games
All round the citie
They stealing glances
She looks so pretty
I'll have to take my chances
The music's getting louder
You try to talk to her
You find it hard to concentrate
Wandering eyes must watch and wait
In the discos and the bars
They're playing eyes games
Venus is watching Mars
They're playing eye games
Come and try games
They're playing eye games
Well it's Friday night
I need a fight
If she don't spread
I'm gonna bust her head
The guy has gone mad
'Cause his chicks been had
What can we do
When there's four of you
Sweet F A, never gonna make it
Sweet F A, people think we fake it
Sweet F A, now we're gonna take it
Sweet F A
Try to pull me out
Like a Roustabout
Gonna spend my bread
Then I'll kick your head
You're just my size
But if you're so wise
See the chick in black
Maybe she'll come back
Sweet F A, never gonna make it
Sweet F A, people think we fake it
Sweet F A, now we're gonna take it
Sweet F A
Yeah, the Hurstle's now
Really nice somehow
See the street car scene
From the black Limousine
Shout it out
Let it all hang out
But you won't get rough
'Cause it's all a bluff
Sweet F A, never gonna make it
Sweet F A, people think we fake it
Sweet F A, now we're gonna take it
Opens her eyes to starlight
She moves with the cool of moonlight
Losing the day, finding her way to me, aha
And Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Sunny stays up every night
Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Aha, aha, aha
She whispers a word of warning
To beware of the light of morning
By losing their glow the stars tell her go away, away
But still she can see the moon
Though she knows she'll be leaving soon
Going away to hide from the day once more, aha
And Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Sunny stays up every night
Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Aha, aha, aha
Opens her eyes to starlight
She moves with the cool of moonlight
Losing the day, finding her way to me, to me
But still she can see the moon
Though she knows she'll be leaving soon
Going away to hide from the day once more, aha
And Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Sunny stays up every night
Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Aha, aha, aha, aha
And Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Sunny stays up every night
Sunny sleeps late in the morning
Aha, aha, aha, aha
And Sunny sleeps late in the morning

In the eyes of the world
You're a rock n' roll widow
But where is the girl

Tell the truth, I just can't take no more
Tell, tell the truth
Or turn, or turn me loose
Tell, tell the truth
Or turn, or turn me loose
I gave you my world
And you gave me nothing
But it's never enough
There's always one more thing
Can't stop what I do
It's the only thing that gets me through
Tell the truth, I can't take anymore
Tell the truth, I just can't take no more
Tell, tell the truth
Or turn, or turn me loose
Tell, tell the truth

Where were you in sixty-eight
In sixty-eight, Julie was Johnnie's date
Two kids growin' together
Livin' each day as if time was slippin' away
Oh, they were just sixteen and their love, a teenage dream
They passed the time, they crossed the line
The line that ran between
Julie and Johnnie, now you've made it
But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
You've just gotta be strong if you're one of the six teens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong 'cause you're all part of the six teens
Suzie and Davey got to make the big time
Maybe they can put it all together
In a show that lasts forever
Oh, they would walk the strip at nights
And dream they saw their name in lights
On Desolation Boulevard, they'll light the faded light
Suzie and Davey, you can make it
But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
You've just gotta be strong if you're one of the six teens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong 'cause you're all part of the six teens
So where were you in sixty-eight
When Bobby and Billy thought that sixty eight was out of date?
They took the flowers from their hair
And tried to make us all aware, too bad, too late
So they lived from day to day
And tried to do it all their way
But sixty-eight was sixty-eight
No matter what they say
Bobby and Billy, maybe you'll make it one day
But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
You've just gotta be strong if you're one of the six teens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong 'cause you're all
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You know you'll never go wrong 'cause you're all part of the six teens
And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
You go to the girl's school
And I go to the boy's school
Both separated by a lollipop man
I must cross the street to
Get around to meet you
Therefore I have to pass a lollipop man
Lollipop man, there's a lollipop man
Who stands in the middle of the street
(Ain't he sweet?)
There's a lollipop man, yeah, a lollipop man
Hey, good golly, there's a lollipop man
Who carries out his duty
Isn't he a cutie?
There in the middle with his lollipop pole
Opposite the high school
Right in front of my school
He's so incredible, he's really got soul
He won't let the traffic come between us
(Lollipop man, lollipop man)
We can be together very soon
(Lollipop man, lollipop man)
But he will make the traffic stop
With his giant lollipop
Looking just a little like a moon man
In a yellow rain coat
And a pair of gum boots
There in the midst of an incredible jam
Any kind of weather
Bringing us together
There stands a funny little lollipop man
Lollipop man, there's a lollipop man
Who stands in the middle of the street
(Ain't he sweet?)
A lollipop man, there's a lollipop man
Hey, good golly, there's a lollipop man
Lollipop man, there's a lollipop man
Who stands in the middle of the street
(Ain't he sweet?)
A lollipop man, there's a lollipop man
Hey, good golly, there's a lollipop man
Lollipop man, there's a lollipop man
Who stands in the middle of the street
(Ain't he sweet?)
A lollipop man, yeah, a lollipop man
I've always been a bit strange
Which one of me is gonna change?
Wish there were eight days a week
Hardly got the time to speak
To anyone, except myself
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one won't go
We'll get myself together
One of us must join the other
Nothing's guaranteed to last
Life is just a plastic glass, hello
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one won't go
Two into one won't go
I've always been a bit strange
Two into one won't
Which one of me is gonna change?
It won't go
We are just a schizoid man
Help each other best we can
Together, but is it possible?
You know, you know
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one, won't
It won't go
Two into one won't go
Two into one won't go
Two into one won't go
You're a strange girl in a strange world
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
Such a strange girl, you're so strange
You can never make up your mind
By the way, you wanna spend your time
You always find a different place to stay
I'll open an investigation
Into the breakdown in communications
I'm tired of eating every word I say
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
Such a strange girl, you're so strange
If that's your way of feeling really free
Loosely wrapped in a fantasy
You'd better find another to take my place
I'm losing my imagination
I don't understand your situation
I got better things to do than waste my time
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
Such a strange girl, you're so strange
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
You're a strange girl in a strange world
Try to teach you, I can't reach you
Heart of a woman but she's a child
Something inside that's gonna drive you wild
You, you go take a walk, I don't need that kind of talk
'Cause I'm a man not a mother
Solid gold brass got a mean streak
And it's running through my veins
Solid gold brass gotta green streak
And it's going to my brain
But she helps me hang on in there
Solid gold brass
Stars in her eyes, she's playin' her game
Smooth words and T birds, her only claim to fame
Hey, just watch what you say, don't talk about her that way
You know I said I'm a man not a mother
Solid gold brass got a mean streak
And it's running through my veins
Solid gold brass gotta green streak
And it's going to my brain
And she helps me hang on in there
Solid gold brass got a mean streak
And it's running through my veins
Solid gold brass gotta green streak
And it's going to my brain
And she helps me hang on in there
Solid gold brass
Heart of a woman but she's a child
Something inside that's gonna drive you wild
Solid gold brass got a mean streak
And it's running through my veins
Solid gold brass gotta green streak
And it's going to my brain

Ya see Mama knew my taste in women
She'd say whatever you do, boy find you one that's sweet
Mama I finally found ony that I'd like you to meet
She's sweet like a Cadillac
Sweet like a stack of cold hard cash
Sweet like the diamond bling
Dangiling down from her belly button ring
She's sweet like a handful of aces
Tattoos in secret places
Mama can't you see she's sweet
No Mama she ain't into ironing
And she ain't one to scrub the house and clean
No Mama she couldn't boil a pot of water
So she won't need none of Grandma's recipes
But Mama don't you worry none
She's taking real good care of me
She's sweet like a Cadillac
Sweet like a stack of cold hard cash
Sweet like the diamond bling
Dangiling down from her belly button ring
She's sweet like a handful of aces
Tattoos in secret places
Mama can't you see she's sweet
She's sweet like a Cadillac
Sweet like a stack of cold hard cash
Sweet like the diamond bling
Dangiling down from her belly button ring
She's sweet like a handful of aces
Tattoos in secret places
Try to swim, keep your head up
Kick your legs, never give up, boy

You know the feeling when you're in too deep

Send me to war
A whisper to the king
Of the favours you gave me
I will take my chance
On a crusade of love
Be my Lady of the Lake
Come love me before it's too late
Be my Lady of the Lake
For the angel with the sword of death won't wait
The colours that I wear
Show me just how much you care
Lady
My body is done
My soul will return
To the Lady of the Lake
Dying came too soon
Cry no more tears
There's love after life
A king and his queen everlasting light
Be my Lady of the Lake
Come love me before it's too late
The colours that I wear
Show me just how much you care
Are you happy with what you've got
Do you like it cold, do you like it hot
Do you like the way you see yourself
Do you sometimes wish you were someone else
Only a fool would say no
Do you know which direction to go
Are you scared of what you may have done
What you've become
Everybody wants to be someone
Everybody wants to be someone, someone
Are you happy with what you earn
Have you got to the point of no return
Do you sometimes wishyou were someone else
When you're looking in the mirror, do you see yourself
I believe every dog has its day
I believe that there's always a way
I believe that my kingdom will come life in the run
Everybody wants to be someone
Everybody wants to be someone, someone
Are you happy with what you are
Que sera, sera, sera
It's your life, c'est la vie
What will be, will be, will be
I believe every dog has its day
I believe that there's always a way
I believe that my kingdom will come life in the run
Everybody wants to be someone
Everybody wants to be someone
Everybody wants to be someone

She loved her me flies like a dove
Into the sky to may hidden above
And my girl is sweeter than a honeysuckle love
Her gentle sweetness may me feel so good
Open my heart like no other could
And my girl is sweeter than a honeysuckle love
She's my cagey queen
And here comes still love
I would've given her moon
And the stars above
Her sweet caresses make me lose my mind
Nobody else has treated me so kind
And my girl is sweeter than a honeysuckle love
I saw her move and I felt so fine
I'm in a groove now I know she's mine
And my girl is sweeter than a honeysuckle love
She's my cagey queen
And here comes still love
I would've given her moon
And the stars above
She's my cagey queen
And here comes still love
I would've given her moon
And the stars above
She's my cagey queen
And here comes still love
I would've given her moon
Co-Co would dream of dancing
at midnight beneath the stars
'cos when it comes to dancing
Co-Co's a star !
He danced in a ring of fire
that circled the Island shore
and as the flames got higher
they'd all call for more and more.
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Ho-chi-ka-ka-ho
Co-Co
Across the silver water
the sound of the Island drums
echoing Co-Co's laughter
yeah
Co-Co's the one !
He moves with the cool of moonlight
under a tropic sky
then into the morning sunlight
She came through the front door lookin' fast as a big train
Bookin' down the line
And she was lookin' fine
Long and lean and dressed to kill
Stacked up high with perfect wheels
and there ain't no chance, that girl would ever dance with me
She got all those city boys pushin' and shovin'
A counrty boy like me don't ever get no uptown lovin'
She's Sweet, she's got 'em melting in her hand
Whoever gets a taste of that cup of sugar
Sure is a lucky man
She's sweet, tellin you boys
She's babelicious, I can't reach that Georgia peach
But she sure looks delicious
I had nothing else to do
So I threw down two more shots of booze
And it made me strong
I strapped my courage on
I said 'would you like a drink?
'By chance, no what I mean is would you like to dance with me?
Please.' in my best southern ease
It got hot on the dance floor when she whispered in my ear
'I think I found my county boy, let's get out of here.'
I said 'sweet'.
I'm melting in her hand
I feel like a spoon in a cup of blonde sugar
Y'all looking at the lucky man
I said 'sweet'
mmm boys she's babelicious
That Georgia peach is now in my reach
And don't she look delicious?
Look here now, she's sweet
I'm melting in her hand
I feel like a spoon in a cup of blonde sugar
Y'all looing at the lucky man
She's sweet, mmm boys she's babelicious
That Georgia peach is now in my reach
And don't she look delicious?
Infinity like time without a friend
Who'll sing the song if melody should end
You're dead my friend.
Lost angel come and take control
Lost angel gotta keep on
Hold on
hold on
hold on.
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
Gotta get down 'cause I'm dead on my Feet
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
We're lost angels
Listen to the way to rock'n'roll.
Insanity
I can feel the knives inside my brain
I stand alone at the threshold of my pain.
Lost angel come and take control
. . .
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
Gotta get down 'cause I'm dead on my feet
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
We're lost angels.
How I see it now all my friends inside my life
Appeared before my eyes
And returning to space to see myself disappear
Lost angel come and take control
. . .
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
Gotta get down 'cause I'hn dead on my feet
Gotta get on back to the love in the street
We're lost angels.
You took the apple from the tree
And gave the fruits of love to me
But love is blind I couldn't see
Those neon nights you'd left behind
You should have laid it on the line
Procrastination stole my time
The day has come the years will go by
Things have changed have opened my eyes
And she tried to hide the feeling inside
But you know and you know and you know
The fever of love is like a hundred above
You are the one that turns me on
The fever of love is like a hundred above
I got you under my skin you are my adrenalin
I've got your love in my veins
It's gonna ease the pain in my heart
In my heart
Good vibrations came today
God only knows they're gonna stay
But psychic ways can fade away
You were the guardian of my soul
Who'll turn my memories to gold
I'll still be younger when I'm older
I'm feeling high on pure emotion
I know I could cry an ocean
And I can't hide my feeling inside
But you know and you know and you know
The fever of love is like a hundred above
. . .
The fever of love is like a hundred above
. . .
The fever of love
The heroine's a hero uprating me to zero
I couldn't hold a candle to you
the hardest part is leaving
this web of love you're weaving
you'veshattered my illusions
I've come to the conclusion
you're gonna do a number on me
I'll never get to heaven with out.
There's a stairway to the stars
yeah but it's a freeway into your arms
there's a stairway to the stars
yeah but it's a freeway
stairway to the stars.
Girls in your condition
they ain't in no position
to do the things you're doing to me

you filled my head with power
you boys get avaricious
feeling pretty vicious
so don't you paint your fingers for me
no no you'll never get to heaven with me.
There's a stairway to the stars
yeah but it's a freeway into your arms
there's a stairway to the stars
yeah but it's a freeway
stairway to the stars.
Take the stairways to my heaven

Rockstar why can't you see
Rockstar won't do it for free
If you got the money he will play the licks
Rockstar he don't do it for kicks
Ain't got no feeling his chequebook rules his soul
Rockstar won't be long before he's old (news)
See his fingers flying in a blur of tired notes
I guess what's more important is his
Haircut and long pink coat
Nouveau rockstar trying too hard
Brandnew sportscar drives it ten yards
Nouveau rockstar heads gone too far out
You think you're really special
But you're nothing
Ah-ha a hired gun
Rockstar makes a living on the run
Can't seem to settle
Wants a life on easy street
Rockstar which band is it this week
He's leaving with his stash of other people's riffs
Rockstar da dit dit dit dit dit
Another computation of the heavy metal clone
Saying he's the king bee
But he's just another drone
Nouveau rockstar trying too hard
Brandnew sportscar drives it ten yards
Nouveau rockstar heads gone too far out
You think you're really special
But you're nothing
Signed up with a major speed guitar
And all the tricks
Yesterday's sensation
Now he's on the transfer list
Nouveau rockstar trying too hard
Brandnew sportscar drives it ten yards
Nouveau rockstar heads gone too far out
You think you're really special
Way back as far as I remember,
Well mama always worried about me
You see mama, she knew my taste in women,
She'd say, whatever you do boy, find you one that's
sweet
Mama, I finally found one, I'd like you to meet
She's sweet like a Cadillac
Sweet like a stack of cold hard cash
Sweet like the diamond bling
Dangling down from her belly button ring
She's sweet like a handful of aces
Tattoos in secret places
Mama can't you see, she's sweet
No mama, she ain't into ironing
And she ain't one to scrub the house and clean
No mama, she couldn't boil a pot of water
So she won't be needin' grandma's recipes
But mama, don't you worry
She's taking real good care of me
She's sweet like a Cadillac
Sweet like a stack of cold hard cash
Sweet like the diamond bling
Dangling down from her belly button ring
She's sweet like a handful of aces
Tattoos in secret places
Mama can't you see, she's sweet
Oh yeah
She's sweet like a Cadillac
Sweet like a stack of cold hard cash
Sweet like the diamond bling
Dangling down from her belly button ring
Sweet like a handful of aces
Tattoos in secret places
Sweet like a Hollywood dream
7-7-7 on a slot machine
Night is coming
Heart is burning
I know that the last train is gone
You're so charming
Moon is shining
But it's dark, dark, dark
While you're staying here
I'm happy
Wish you didn't have to go
Waiting for the perfect moment
But I have no chance
I wanna say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
But I said "No, no, no!!"
Till I say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
So will you wait for me
I wanna say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
But I said "No, no, no!!"
Till I say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
So will you wait for me
When I say "Yes", I'll be yours

Take your hands, I feel you sweetie
My heart belongs to you
Your love is touching my heart
Let me tell you that I'n sorry
Now is a not the time for this
I am going through so much in my life right now
I wanna say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
But I said "No, no, no!!"
Till I say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
So will you wait for me
I wanna say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
But I said "No, no, no!!"
Till I say "Yes, yes, yes!!"
So will you wait for me
When I say "Yes", I'll be yours

Our naked mind will fix our pieces

Why don't you stay with me?
Come on and play with me
You know I'm out of my tree
Honey, why did you walk away?
When you knew I had something to say
Sittin' here drinking alone
Left wondering why you ain't gonna phone
But I know baby
That you were just sent for me
You're driving me crazy
I'm begging right down on my knees
Why don't you stay with me?
Come on and play with me
You know i'm out of my tree
Lay down your love
I ain't satisfied
Cause you never tried
When making love was a matter of pride
I heard it from friends just the other day
That you're coming back maybe this time you'll stay
Whenever you're near me
I see the truth in your lies
Please open your heart to me
I'm begging you down on my knees
Why don't you stay with me? yea, yea
Come on and play with me, yea, yea
You know I'm out of my tree
Baby, baby, baby, it's allright
Lay down yourlove, allright
Falling in love was'nt easy
But people need love, to survive
If I knew then
All the things I know now
These'd be more then enough to go round
Why don't you stay with me? yeah yeah
Come on and play with me, yeah
You know I'm out of my tree
Baby baby babe it's allright

Ain't nobody gonna take my place whips and chains
Don't leave no trace solid gold brass got a plastic face.
break me up ev'ry time you try to cool me off
With a wink in your eye and I don't eat
From a pie in the sky no more.
I can see you ain't foolin' me I ain't blind
The lies in your eyes don't disguise
The tears that you cry
I'm no blind
The lies in your eyes don't disguise
The lies in your eyes don't disguise
But the lies in your eyes.
You gotta big fat mouth
watch what you say
'Cause sooner
later
you're gonna pay
Gone tomorrow here today.
there ain't nobody gonna take my place
Sticks and stones don't leave no trace
I don't nead your second face.
can see you ain't foolin' me I ain't`blind
I can see
I can see
don't you know I can see
You ain't foolin' me I ain't blind
I am sitting
In the morning
At the diner
On the corner
I am waiting
At the counter
For the man
To pour the coffee
And he fills it
Only halfway
And before
I even argue
He is looking
Out the window
At somebody
Coming in
"It is always
Nice to see you"
Says the man
Behind the counter
To the woman
Who has come in
She is shaking
Her umbrella
And I look
The other way
As they are kissing
Their hellos
I'm pretending
Not to see them
Instead
I pour the milk
I open
Up the paper
There's a story
Of an actor
Who had died
While he was drinking
It was no one
I had heard of
And I'm turning
To the horoscope
And looking
For the funnies
When I'm feeling
Someone watching me
And so
I raise my head
There's a woman
On the outside
Looking inside
Does she see me?
No she does not
Really see me
Cause she sees
Her own reflection
And I'm trying
Not to notice
That she's hitching
Up her skirt
And while she's
Straightening her stockings
Her hair
Is getting wet
Oh, this rain
It will continue
Through the morning
As I'm listening
To the bells
Of the cathedral
I am thinking
Of your voice...
And of the midnight picnic
Once upon a time
Before the rain began...
I finish up my coffee
Give me your love
You gotta help me make it
Through the day or night
Just a taste
Of success is the front
Cover of TIME and LIFE
Oh I need your love, only you can satisfy me
Oh I need your love, you are in my hands
Oh Oh Oh you ain't going nowhere, no way, baby
I fell in love
With the golden sunshine
Deep within your eyes
In dreams i touch
The softness of your skin is paper thin
Oh I need your love, only you can satisfy me
Oh I need your love, you are in my hands
Oh Oh Oh you ain't going nowhere, no way, baby
I picked up the magazine from the rack
And you were there, how does it feel
To be the center of attraction, for so many here
Oooooh yeah
Oh I need your love, only you can satisfy me
Oh I need your love, you are in my hands
Andy Scott
I was a king thought of everything
Into the night
Then I was out everybody shout
Into the night
I kinda was having lots of fun
Into the night
And now I've lost gotta count the cost
Into the night
I couldn't lose
When I was on top
I couldn't lose
But now it's all stopped
I wore a crown then began to frown
Into the night
I cast a spell and it fell on me
Into the night
I dig a hole 'cause I got no soul
Into the night
I hear a phone then began to moan
Into the night
I couldn't lose
When I was on top
I couldn't lose
But now it's all stopped
I'm in a sea floating on one knee
Into the night
I think I'll drown oh I'm going down
Into the night
Is this a dream in agolden beam
Into the night
I look up high and there's no sky
Into the night
I couldn't lose
When I was on top
I couldn't lose

Clapp your hands
I guess I've had a sweetlife, for thirty years
I've tasted all the good life, Belgian beers
And living in the fast lane, could end in tears
I'm older, but I'm wider.
I wanna do this forever
But I don't know if I should
I think I'm pretty together
So far, so good.
You might have heard some stories, a tale or two
Well just in case you wondered, it's all true
When I woke up this morning, I couldn't find my shoes
Now take that as a warning.
I wanna do this forever
But I don't know if I should
I think I'm pretty together
So far, so good.
I've travelled every nation
I've stopped at every station
Had every invitation
But then came my frustration
The taxman took my money
From the land of milk and honey
But now I think, it's funny
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
Now don't get so excited, it's only Rock'n Roll
Go out and sell your records, but not your soul
No remorse, no regrets
It ain't over 'til it's over.
I wanna do this forever
But I don't know if I should
I think I'm pretty together
So far, so good,
What a lot of fun
You guys have been real swell
And there's not a one who can say
This ended well
All those secrets
You've been concealing
Say you're happy now,
Once more with feeling
Now I gotta run
See you all in hell
I am looking down
On Athena's claims of fate
I am looking down
Turn my golden hair to snakes
Yes, are you coming to see me
Can you see me now
Yes, are you coming to see me
Look at me now
Oh, let my myth surround the twilight zone
Those who gaze upon me turn to stone
Turn away before YOU turn to stone
Medusa, Medusa
Shining like a star
Through Minerva's mirrored shield
Flashing like a star
Saw the sword my fate was sealed
Yes, are you coming to see me
Can you see me now
Yes, are you coming to see me
Look at me now
Oh, take my head the horror's just begun
Snakes alive my gaze will make you stone
Turn away before YOU turn to stone
Medusa, Medusa
Yes - yes, are you coming to see me
Can you see me now
Yes, are you coming to see me
Look at me now
Oh, take my head the horror's just begun
Snakes alive my gaze will make you stone
Turn away before YOU turn to stone
Ian Gillan/Roger David
What were you thinking yesterday
What will you say tomorrow
How many times you've changed your mind
When will you feel my sorrow
When will you feel my sorrow
Open your hands and close your eyes
Listen I'm breathing faster
Here is the ring I bought for you
When shall I have my answer
When shall I have my answer
Darkness (this night)
Ooh, leave me (forever)
This day (our love)
Will keep me (together)
Underneath my tree
Songs of love and me
How many times I sing my song
How can I wait forever
When will she say she loves me, too
When shall we be together
When shall we be together
These are the questions I have asked
(How could you ask the first ones last)
Now I shall ask another
(What will she say I wonder)
Please can you tell me what's your name
(So pleased to meet you let me dream)
Now I can start all over
(Now I can start all over)
Life, life without your love
is like a world without the sky above
like a rose needs the sun and the rain
I need your love time and time again
You are everything, everything I ever wanted
you are everything, but in a world without your love
it means nothing, yeah
Gold, held it in my hand
without you I'm a poor rich man
shine your light angel from above
spread your wings fill my world with love
You are everything, everything I ever wanted
you are everything, but in a world without your love
it means nothing
You are everything, everything I need
you are everything, but in a world without your love

Hiawatha didn't bother too much
'Bout Minnie Ha-Ha and her tender touch
Till she took him to the silver stream
Then she whispered words like he had never heard
That made him all shudder inside when she said
Wig-wam bam, gonna make you my man
Wam bam bam, gonna get you if I can
Wig-wam bam, wanna make you understand
Try a little touch, try a little too much
Just try a little wig-wam bam
Running Bear never cared enough
About Little White Dove and her tender love
Till she took him to the silver stream
She told him all about what he couldn't live without
And made him all weak inside when she said
Wig-wam bam, gonna make you my man
Wam bam bam, gonna get you if I can
Wig-wam bam, wanna make you understand
Try a little touch, try a little too much
Just try a little Wig-wam bam
Wig-wam bam sham-a-lam

Wig-wam bam, wanna make you understand
Try a little touch, try a little too much

Mighty fine woman

Gotta make up to
But I ain't no telling Sally
That I'm feeling blue
Don't let go
'Cause ya got me going
You're moving fast
And there ain't no slowin' you
I need a lot of lovin'
Gonna have a lot of lovin'
Need a lot of lovin' tonight
Early in the morning
To the middle of the night
Gonna rock it to the rhythm
Of the early morning light
With my baby boogalooin'
And the feeling's getting strong
Gonna keep it in the move
Until the darkness come along
Don't let go
'Cause ya got me going
You're moving fast
And there ain't no slowin' you
I need a lot of lovin'
Gonna have a lot of lovin'
Need a lot of lovin' tonight
Mighty fine woman

Sweet!
And still there's pain
If I would have grew up to be a doctor, my nephew would have grew up to do the same
But since I grew up through the game, and my influence is the same
And my therapy is music, they ask if you ashamed
And though I wish I could separate, two things,
I cannot, so my answer to you remains
I can walk down the hall or mirrors, in Versailles
And be so satisfied when I look a myself in the eyes
No shame, no sir, just big boats and tearing the coast up
Tight coup like I'm wearing the roadster,
For any coup I'm bear hugging the holster.
Hov, alright, alright
And that may not be
What you call perfect
But, but it's my life
The life, the life, the life
Once again it's the life
So I make no apologies
Crooked policies
So a G a nigga gotta be
We playing for property, no monopoly
So I'll pass go and let my nephew follow me
They say the child shall lead,
So I take it far as I can, and then we shall see
Shall we dance with the devil, for a beat
I pray to God I ain't got two left feet
Do the hustle, put keys in the street
Then I'm ballroom dancing, ke-ke'ing in the suite
Sweet.
BB's on the feet, TV's in the seat
Enemies on the creep
It's so corrupt
Soak it up
It's a lesson, never fuck up
One day you're up, next day you're down
Long as you stay the same, it will come back around
I'm even better, I'm eating better
Best thing about it is, my niggas eating together
With each endeavor
We reaching levels, niggas ain't seen in like forever
I'm hyman roth I make all my partners rich
I can vouch for you, if you ain't a part of this
So pardon me as I pave my wrist
As I parlay my chips, Hov!
Alright, alright, American Gangster, ganster, business like I'm white
But I'm not, I'm just bright
So fly with no fear of the flight
So if y'all hear my plight
And if you think you can make it this far without a fight
Couple mistakes here and there, not always right
Get my chain, get my chain
This GOOD music
You sweet to me: Diabetes, Peace treaties
Breakfast of champions, they need Wheaties
Carrying the torch, the Olympic 4 rings
I'm a javelin throw from the crowning of the king
I hear 'em whisper like a hummingbird sings
Of all the trust issues that a hundred birds bring
Now the wolves out hunting for your bling
As you preyin' on the bitches with the lowest self-esteem
It's a common running theme
Victim or vice Lord, disciple or black stone
What you looked at Christ for?
We in the last days, fire or the ice storm
Wear it in my chain as a symbol of a crime lord
Lets be honest, the cards on the table
Jealousy's a sin, Cain killed Abel
Backstabber, Ceasar had Brutus
It's hard to weed 'em out
Even Jesus had Judas
Take a chance n something star you gotta
All the live long day
If i had to name one thing would data
Be hard pressed to say
You can say that i'm gushy
At least you know what i think
I know that i'm lucky i know you're on the brink
You got it good good good you got it good so good
You make up ridiculous words
Which mean exactly nothing
I know just what you mean and that's the funny thing
It's understood it's understood
Buddy buddy buddy i know why you wander
Through the sweetness on the ground
The sweetness of the flowers
You make your way on a cloudy day
You've got to move
The world you prove is too sweet yeah
We parted much too soon i know but that's how it goes
There's someone better out there for you and me
Can't wait to get on the road and feel the shows And be like phenomenon 1 and 2 and 3
I don't mean to brag and i don't mean to boast
But i'm the guy could that give you the most
It's good good good it's understood
CHORUS
Did I tell you she's not good for you
Did I mention she's not free
Can I tell you can I show you
I've been waiting on my knees
I will be your movie star
I will be your movie queen
I will touch you in the dark
When you're alone and bittersweet
I've seen the ring on her finger
I've seen the fire in her eyes
I know that smoke always lingers
In disguise
So I see we've got a problem
Back by popular demand
I call you call her but the line is busy
bittersweet your too complete ask me why
you're over there and you're shy to stare you catch her eye
when you do she looks at you with silent signs
and i know that you glow like the sky
you've got nowhere to run
but you've got someplace to be
you've got nowhere to run
but you've got someplace to be
That's with me that's with me
you think you're so fucking sweet
yeah you're so sweet
it's friday night your joke's alright you come with me
you're falling hard and it's too hard to see me
when you do she looks at you behind the line
and i'll know that you glow like the sky
you've got nowhere to run
but you've got someplace to be
you've got nowhere to run
but you've got someplace to be
that's with me that's with me
Smiling eyes in a sea of faces
Stealing time for secret places
Making love in the afternoon
This is the third stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
This is the third stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Today
Rolling Stones should rock together
Like the storm cloud crystal weather
Silver sun when the day is done
This is the third stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
This is the third stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Today
This is the next stone from the sun
Invaded for everyone
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
Mother Earth is calling you
I can see July fourteenth in my mind
The softness in your eyes
I can taste your sweet lips against mine
Your sweet sixteenth
The candles in the background
Fireworks in the sky
We’re dancing around
Our summer together, the last till we fly
The last till goodbye
[Chorus]
Your sixteenth birthday dear
I was there, you were here
We knew what was coming
We swore we were gonna run
Before the night was done
That never happened, we said goodbye
We saw the last night
The end of the sweetness
[2nd Verse]
I can still feel you with me
I can feel you breathe
I feel your grace
See your face
Put myself in that place
I swear that one of these days
I’ll be able to say
That we ended up together anyway
But I’ll never forget
[Chorus]
Your sixteenth birthday dear
I was there, you were here
We knew what was coming
We swore we were gonna run
Before the night was done
That never happened, we said goodbye
We saw the last night
The end of the sweetness
[Bridge]
The sky is a rosemary color tonight
I’m thinking about our last fight
You were telling me to stay here
You said, follow your dreams dear
Don’t let me hold you back
But all I wanted to do was be with you
Oh and now all we have left is
[Final Chorus]
Your sixteenth birthday dear
I was there, you were here
We knew what was coming
We swore we were gonna run
Before the night was done
That never happened, we said goodbye
We saw the last night
The end of the sweetness
[Final Verse]
Everything in it’s reverse
You’re gone living your dreams
Without me
I’ve been living everyday with the hurt
I’m dealing with the pain of losing you
To get what I want in life
Doing what I have to
To make us both happy in our own right
Our own right
I know I hardly know you and I've mispronounced your name
But it's all I do to think of you and hope you feel the same
Well if stupid is as stupid does then I'm the stupid king
'cause whenever I'm around you, you're my everything
'cause you're sweet
You're so incredibly sweet
'cause you're sweet
You're so incredibly sweet
The way you let me hold your hand in mine on Christmas day
It was serious and funny and I couldn't stay
Well it's not quite rocket science shot and spliced in super 8
But the time I spent with you that night, it was great
'cause you're sweet
You're so incredibly sweet
'cause you're sweet
You're so incredibly sweet
I tried to write a letter but I couldn't find the words
I felt more like an albatross, awkward and unsure
it's pause, rewind, record, and playback if you lose your way
but this feeling I don't want at night, you'll hear me say
That you're sweet (that you're sweet, that you're sweet)
You're so incredibly sweet (you're so sweet, you're so sweet)
'cause you're sweet ('cause you're sweet,'cause you're sweet)
You're so incredibly sweet (you're so sweet, you're so sweet)
'cause your sweet ('cause you're sweet,'cause you're sweet)
You're so incredibly sweet (you're so sweet, you're so sweet)
'cause you're sweet ('cause you're sweet,'cause you're sweet)
You're so incredibly sweet (you're so sweet, you're so sweet)
'cause you're sweet
You're so incredibly sweet
'cause you're sweet ('cause you're sweet,'cause you're sweet)
You're so incredibly sweet (you're so sweet, you're so sweet)
'cause your sweet ('cause you're sweet,'cause you're sweet)
You're so incredibly sweet (you're so sweet, you're so sweet)
'cause you're sweet ('cause you're sweet,'cause you're sweet)
You're so incredibly sweet (you're so sweet, you're so sweet)
Honey, you believe in me
All the love in your heart
You gave me has set me free
Night after night
Like a bird in endless flight
Lady of my dreams
Your everything to me
Oh yeah!
With every breath that i take
To help forget the heartache
I know that this love is real
By the way that i feel deep inside
Thank You For Loving Me
Thank You For Loving Me, baby
Thank You For Loving Me
Oh and i can't ask for any more
Lover, i wasted so much time
When you took my hand in yours
I knew you where mine
I saw the light
No more ships that pass in the night
Now i've change my way
I want you to help me to stay in love
Somethings you never forget
Just like the first time we meet
You where a woman so wild
With a face of a child
I wanted you
Chorus
Honey, do you believe in me?
All the love in your heart
That you gave me has set me free
Your everthing to me
Somethings you never forget
Just like the first time we meet
I know that this love is real
By the way that i feel deep inside
There's no point in feeling sad
about the good times that you've had
But 'til things are gonna move on
It'll only drive you mad
To change your old life
into a new life
life after life
You must believe in something
hold my hand and I'll take you there
rock of ages, sands of time
and love becomes a leap of faith
a leap of faith
It's gonna take a little time
and everything will be just fine
sometimes you've got to move on
to turn the water into wine
To change old life
into a new life
life after life
You must believe in something
hold my hand and I'll take you there
rock of ages, sands of time
and love becomes a leap of faith

Somewhere, where am I
Don't now when I'm high
People lookin' at me
Is there, what did I see
Man with a bible
Won't somebody tell me please
Somebody help me
Tell me what's happened to me
Fever night and day
Woman, hear what I say
Daze all, lighter come
This life won't be long
Man with a bible won't
Somebody tell me please
Somebody help me
Tell me what's happened to me
Woman, hear my plead
Come on, rescue me
Signs all, death has come
Woman look what you've done
Man with a bible
Won't somebody tell me please
Somebody help me
Tell me what's happened to me
Man with a bible
Won't somebody tell me please
Somebody help me
Tell me what's happened to me

Tom Tom lived for all he could give
As he stood by his father's side
Then into his world came a sweet young girl
And he took her for his bride, and he took her for his bride
Tom Tom turnaround, don't ever let me down
Don't ever leave my life
Tom Tom turnaround, don't ever let me down
You don't need a wife, no, you don't need a wife
Tom Tom's called away, but his wife says stay
Though he's never had to leave before
Sweet young wife only fears for the good life
That she may see no more and then he hears her call
Tom Tom turnaround, don't ever let me down
Don't ever leave my life
Tom Tom turnaround, don't ever let me down
You can't leave your wife, no, you can't leave your wife
Tom Tom returns but only to learn
There was truth in the words he'd ignored
Sweet young wife found a new kind of life
And a strong man's heart was torn
Will he always hear that call?
Tom Tom turnaround, don't ever let me down
Don't ever leave my life
Tom Tom turnaround, don't ever let me down
You can't leave your wife, no, you can't leave your wife
Tom Tom's alone in a world of his own
When he hears a new voice call
"Be my man, I'll do all that I can"
Is this what he's been waiting for?
Will he turn and answer her call?
Tom Tom turnaround, I'll never let you down
I'll never leave your life
Tom Tom turnaround, I'll never let you down
Take me for your wife, please take me for your wife
Tom Tom turnaround, I'll never let you down
I'll never leave your life
Tom Tom turnaround, I'll never let you down
Take me for your wife, please take me for your wife
Please take me for your wife
So Tom Tom turned around, so Tom Tom turned around
Tom Tom turned around, Tom Tom turned around
Tom Tom turned around, Tom Tom turned around
I got an ETA at JFK
If the CIA says it's AOK
With their red tape
Red tape
And if you do get through
They tell you PDQ
To get B1/B2 you better
Join the queue
Red tape
Always red tape
Red tape dragging me down
Drowning in the Crimson sea
Red tape all around
Red tape dragging me down
Drowning in the Crimson sea
Red tape all around
The faces on TV well it's a mystery
You need some equity or be a VIP
Oh red tape
File it under B
You need an OBE to join the BBC
Buth it don't bother me
Cause I watch MTV
Oh red tape
Who needs it
Red tape dragging me down
Drowning in the Crimson sea
Red tape all around
Red tape dragging me down
Drowning in the Crimson sea
Chorus
Suck, suck, suck it and see
The taste of life is never wasted on me
Suck, suck, suck it and see
You've got to take a chance or three
To get away from this monotony
The years that really pass you by
Nobody sees you cry
So what if you bruise yourself
You might be lucky and improve yourself
If you're livin' on the bottom line
All you've got to do is try
Chorus
You`ll never get the break you want
Unless you get out there and take it on
The world will never pass you by
If you're really gonna try
Night after night, thinking about you
Wanting you beside me, no matter what I do
Under a spell, over the line
Something's got a hold on me
Gonna make you mine
Hypnotised
Everytime I look into your eyes
I can feel all the magic inside
You got me hypnotised
Ya got me (Hypnotised)
Love me tonight
Baby don't make me wait
Wrap your arms around me
Don't you hesitate
Can't help myself, can't break away
There's no way I can resist you
I just gonna stay
Hypnotised
Everytime that I look in your eyes
I can feel the magic inside
You got me hypnotised
I've been in every town
I've stood on every stage
Still the crowd comes in to join the show
And when the light shines bright
On me for you
The time has come and everybody knows
If you're standing in the front
Or you're standing in the back
You can feel something happening
Are you ready? Are you Ready?
Are you ready? Let's go!
Let's go - if you really wanna do it now
Let's go - and get down to it now
Let's go - and get some satisfaction and
Let's go - 'cause you're the main attraction so
Go-go-go-go-go!
Time turnes the age
The years go by
Still the songs you hear, oh why
There must be something in the melody
That keeps us here I think I know why
If you're standing in the front
Or you're standing at the back
You can feel something's happening
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Are you ready? Let's go!
Let's go - if you really wanna do it now
Let's go - and get down to it now
Let's go - and get some satisfaction and
Let's go - 'cause yoù're the main attraction so
Go - go- go -go - go-!
Goooooooooooooooooo!
Are you ready? Are you ready?
Are you ready? Let's go!
Let's go - if you really wanna do it now
They thought you were crazy
When you took a walk right through the door
They don't know the reason
You just couldn't take it anymore
The lies that they told you
And the times that they sold you
Down the line
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
You gotta, you gotta
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
Counterfeit city
Spending your life in their charade (sorry for yourself)
Sincerely phony
This musical mascerade has gone too far far far
You sold your clothes
Now it's cold up your nose
And you frooze
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
Gotta gotta gotta gotta
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
You gotta live for today
You gotta throw it away
Gotta gotta live for today
You gotta throw it away
Get out of my way
I'm only live for today
Live for today
People try to put us down
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful cold
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Hope I die before I get old
(Talking 'bout my generation)
My generation, my generation, baby
Why don't you all fade away
(Talking 'bout my generation)
Don't try to dig what we all say
(Talking 'bout my generation)
I'm not trying to cause a big sensation
(Talking 'bout my generation)
I can talking about my generation

My generation, my generation, baby
Why don't you all fade away

When there ain't no light
But the night is bright
And it's cold outside
I'm burning
The feeling inside
That I just can't hide
Now it's for you I'm yearning
I ain't asking much
Just a simple touch of you
But you won't have me
I sit right here
And my only fear is you
And all you can be
At the third stroke
It will be five thirty
I'm a simple man
And a simple man
Can't get to you with feeling
Even if I might
Then it wouldn't be right
Connolly/Priest/Scott/Tucker

White light
Into my height
I saw the light
I don't wanna know your name
Cause you don't look the same
The way you did before
OK you think you got a pretty face
But the rest of you is out of place
You looked all right before
Fox on the run
You screamed and everybody comes a-running
Take a run and hide yourself away
Fox on the run
F-foxy, foxy on the run and hideaway
You-you talk about just every band
But the names you drop are second hand
I've heard it all before
I don't wanna know your name
Cause you don't look the same
The way you did before
Are you ready?
Oh, it's been getting so hard
Living with the things you do to me, aha
My dreams are getting so strange
I'd like to tell you everything I see
Oh, I see a man at the back
As a matter of fact, his eyes are as red as a sun
And a girl in the corner, let no one ignore her
'Cause she thinks she's the passionate one
Oh, yeah, it was like lightning
Everybody was frightening
And the music was soothing
And they all started grooving
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the man at the back said
Everyone attack and it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said
Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
I'm reaching out for something
Touching nothing is all I ever do
Oh, I softly call you over
When you appear there's nothing left of you, aha
Now the man in the back
Is ready to crack as he raises his hands to the sky
And the girl in the corner is everyone's mourner
She could kill you with a wink of her eye
Oh yeah, it was electric
So frantically hectic
And the band started leaving
'Cause they all stopped breathing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the man at the back said
Everyone attack and it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said
Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Oh yeah, it was like lightning
Everybody was frightening
And the music was soothing
And they all started grooving
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And the man at the back said
Everyone attack and it turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said
Boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll turn into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
Ooh, it's, it's a ballroom blitz
It's, it's a ballroom blitz
It's, it's a ballroom blitz
Hey lady, listen to me
'Cause you ain't never heard of me
Hey woman, open your eyes
'Cause I wanna be seen by you
Oh no, don't go, baby I'm so
Oh no, I know that I'm goin' anyway
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight the way it's like?
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight but what it's like?
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Heartbreak today
Hey mister, what do you hear?
Oh yeah, believe what you wanna hear
Hey sister, what do you see?
You're blind, but I know that you can see
I know your way could be my way
You say, "You stay I'm goin' anyway"
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight the way it's like?
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight but what it's like?
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Heartbreak today
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight the way it's like?
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight but what it's like?
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Heartbreak today, heartbreak today, heartbreak today
Don't leave me this way
Heartbreak today
I'm goin' anyway
I packed the bag
Said I'm leaving here
As I moved on
Turning, no waving hands
I should have known better
Than to believe that she really cared
But though I know better
When somebody leaves you
It isn't the end of the world
I drew down the blind
Tried to get me some sleep
Oh i felt my eyes close
And the hurt went away
I woke up next morning
And a new day was already dawning
Your my reason for living
You came into my life and you kissed
All my heartaches away
Hold me, hold me
So that I can love again
Hold me, hold me
So that I can love again (Repeat Twice)
You gave me a new start
So I gave you my heart
I'll lay down my soul for you
I'll weave it to gold for you
Don't let me chase rainbows
Cause if you ever leave me
It will be the end of the world
Hold me, hold me
So that I can love again
Hold me, hold me
So that I can love again
Your love has
Set me free
You make me laugh all day
Your love is all I need
No way, well I've found mine
Hold me, hold me
So that I can love again
Hold me, hold me
Take me up when I fell down
you're like the sunshine in the sky
You are fine to have around
It's plain to see, I'm satisfied
People say, you're not good to me
you're not wrong for loving me
Don't lay me down
Kind of things that in my life
no one knows but you can guess
my goal in life's to meet the rainbow
Seems like things are never there
People say, you're not good to me
you're not wrong for loving me
Don't lay me down
Doo di doo doo di doo ...
Take me up when I fell down
you're like the sunshine in the sky
You are fine to have around
You call me a lair
You call me a thief
Said i stole your love
You still got to believe
You need me honey
More every day
I wouldn't have it any other way
Oh Yeah!
Oh Yeah!
Oh Yeah!
Your indiscretions
Your point of view
You try to close every door after you
I saw you comming
So don't turn away
You know i wasn't born yeasterday
Oh Yeah!
Oh Yeah!
Oh Yeah!
Every moment say i'm gonna leave you
Give me a reason i should stay with you
You call me a lair
Call me a thief
Didn't steal you love i got my belief
Oh Yeah!
Oh Yeah!
Stare into space
That ain't the place
you've got the eyes to se me
Reach for the sky
I'm not that high
You've got the hands to feel me
Now is the time
To lay down the line
Drifting around for money
You're in the wrong race
A waste of space
Things that you do still turn to me
Why don't you do it (do it to me)
Why don't you do it (do it to me)
Why don't you do it to me
You take all you leave
Don't have to believe
You poison the air I'm breathing
You sned me up
And bring me down
You're treating me like a plaything
I've had enough
So I'm calling you bluff
What are you-ac or dc?
If that's what you are
Ther's a stool at the bar
I'll drink up my wine and come with you
Why don't you do it(do it to me)
Why don't you do it (do it to me)
Why don't you do it to me
Why don't you do it(do it to me)
Why don't you do it (do it to me)
Why don't you do it to me
Why don't you do it(do it to me)
Why don't you do it (do it to me)
Connolly/Scott/Tucker/Priest
You are the love of my life
That's what you are to me
You are the love of my life
That's what you mean to me
With my heart going boom boom
Your love is driving me to ruin.
Chorus
Strong love is just too much for my heart
Strong love is just too much for my heart
Oh won't you kiss me again
You sure know what you're doing
Oh won't you kiss me again
Don't you stop what you're doing
There's something I just gotta say
I can't keep it up every day
With my heart going boom boom
Chinn/Chapman
I'm traveling fast on a southbound highway
Into the sun where I know that I can live my way
Movin' down the highway
A ticket to ride straight down 'cross the border
Into the sunshine of South California my way
Straight down the highway
Well, I'll drive, drive, drive
Soon I'll arrive
In that Santa Monica sunshine
Santa Monica sands, you're all mine
Santa Monica sunshine
Santa Monica sands, you're all mine
I'm taking the road straight through Sacramento
Over the long I'll soon in San Francisco
That's the way you gotta go
My way leaves Golden Gates far behind me
You look all alive I'm sure gonna find Miano
That's the way you gotta go
Well, I'll drive, drive, drive
Soon I'll arrive
In that Santa Monica sunshine
Santa Monica sands, you're all mine
Santa Monica sunshine
Santa Monica sands, you're all mine
Well, that Santa Monica sunshine
Santa Monica sands, you're all mine
Santa Monica sunshine
Santa Monica sands, you're all mine
To that Santa Monica sunshine
Santa Monica sands, you're all mine
Santa Monica sunshine
Chorus
I got myself some new shoes
To walk away from my blues
I got myself some new shoes
Got no time for bad news in my new shoes
You, you where the one
I was a young man
You where temptation
Dreams of you every night
Change when i turn on the light
Don't give me those love sleepness nights anymore
Chorus
Times, are left behind
Now i'm a changed man
A new sensation
Circules are turning around
I'll keep my feet on the ground
Now that i found what it's like to free
Chorus (Repeat Twice)

Broken people,
hollow and feeble.
They're rolling, rolling up the hill.
Rotten ingrates,
stupid mistakes.
They're rolling, rolling up the hill.
Wishing wells and cockel shells,
they swim throughout my head.
My eyes are closing
slowly, as I'm lowering
...my head.
Wanting and getting
silence setting.
They're rolling, rolling up the hill.
Robbing and burning,
wasted learning.
They're rolling, rolling up the hill.
Wishing wells and cockel shells,
they swim throughout my head.
My eyes are closing
slowly, as I'm lowering
...my head.
Breaking in
In my eyes
I can't see like this
I can't let go
Please help me down
I can't be like this
Seeing(Fearing) them
Them all around
How can they be so sweet?
Sweet
They panic so
Just hold them down
I could live like this
I'm closing in
Hey, all around
I could be like this
Hearing them
Them in my head
How can they be so sweet?
Sweet
They're all around
Hey, hear me say
They're all around, yeah
They're all around
Hey, hear me say
They're all around, yeah
They're all around
Hey, hear me say
How can they be so sweet?
Sweet
They're all around
(Breaking in)
All around
(In my eyes)
All around
(I can't see like this)
They're all around
(I can't let go)
All around
(Please help me down)
All around
(I can't be like this)
They're all around
(Seeing them)
All around
(Them all around)
They're all around
(How can they be)
They're so sweet

I'm on my way
I'm going home today
Because the girl I love is waiting there for me
For I'm sure she really loves me so
She'll be mine I know one day
So now I'm going straight back home
To Sovanna way
I'm on my way
I'm going home to stay
Because I just can't wait to see my girl again
I'm gonna ring, that's just right for her
She only has to name the day
I'm heading for our wedding
Down in Sovanna way
I'm on my way
I'm going home today
Because the girl I love is waiting there for me
For I'm sure she really loves me so
She'll be mine I know one day
So now I'm going straight back home
To Sovanna way
I'm on my way
I'm going home to stay
Because I just can't wait to see my girl again
I'm gonna ring, that's just right for her
She only has to name the day
I'm heading for our wedding
Down in Sovanna way
I'm on my way down in Sovanna way
Your head lies on your pillow
Do you dream of me tonight
I'm waiting for the sunshine
To bring the morning light
To kiss your cheek and wake you
from your sleep would not be right
So gentle like a baby
I'll keep you warm tonight
Let the moonlight cast the shadows
Of our love forever more
Dawn will break and take them away
Like it always has before
But you are here I know it's real
If I reach out my hand and touch you
So I'll leave you softly dreaming
That I'm making love to you
Dream on you little girl
Dream on you little girl
So you think you'll take another piece of me
To satisfy your intellectual need
Do you want, do you want
Action, action, action, action
Gonna bring you down
'Cause you've been pushing me
You've got to recognize my superiority
Liar, liar, liar, liar
You know you believed it
Higher, higher, higher, higher
'Cause I'm the main man
And that's why
Everybody wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs a main attraction
I've got what everybody needs
Satisfaction guarantees
That everybody wants a piece of the action
Oh, I was suicidal 'cause you as my idol
Baby, baby, baby, bring it to your knees
Oh, there was a time I would have walked the line
But bled me dry with your insatiable greed
Liar, liar, liar, liar
You know you believed it
Higher, higher, higher, higher
'Cause I'm the main man
And that's why
Everybody wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs a main attraction
I've got what everybody needs
Satisfaction guarantees
That everybody wants a piece of the action
Do you want, do you want action?
Everybody wants, everybody needs
Everybody wants, everybody needs
Everybody wants a piece of the action
Everybody needs a main attraction
I've got what everybody needs
Satisfaction guarantees
Baby was dancin'
With Charly standing in line in the wing
And yesterday's rain turns to snow
Shake your head now honey child
Shake your head now honey child
Jump back while I clean them up
Shake your head now honey child
Spotlights are blinding
Like stars shooting down on the man
Who fell to earth
Spiraling up to the sky
Shake your head now honey child
Shake your head now honey child
Jump back while I clean them up
Shake your head now honey child
Shake that head, shake that head
Shake my head, shake my head
Swing up the line, swing up the line
Swing up that line, swing up that line
Funk it up, funk it up
Funk it up, funk it up
Swing up the back, light up the front
Shake your head now honey child
Shake your head now honey child
Jump back while I clean them up
Shake your head now honey child
Love is like oxygen
You get too much you get too high
Not enough and you're gonna die
Love gets you high
Love is like oxygen
. . .
Time on my side
I got it all
I've heard that pride
Always comes before a fall
There's a rumour goin' round the town
That you don't want me around
I can't shake off my city blues
Every way I turn I lose
Love is like oxygen
. . .
Love is like oxygen
. . .
Time is no healer
If you're not there
Lonely fever
Sad words in the air
Some things are better left unsaid
I'm gonna spend my days in bed
I'll walk the streets at night
To be hidden by the city lights
City lights
Love is like oxygen
. . .
Love is like oxygen
I've gotta be the one
And you'd better not even doubt
The one who's gonna fire you up
And turn your dreams about
But I heard you got other plans
And I'm telling you really straight
I'm gonna win you anyway now
More sooner than later
There's nowhere to run to baby
Nowhere to hide
I'm following you so close now
You're better off by my side
I'm like lightning so frightening
Lovin' me's a dangerous game
Like lightning it's so frightening
Loving me's a dangerous game
Listen while I talk to you
And you better have eyes to see
You're acting very strange toward me
Nowo and nothing is for free
I suggest that you hear my voice
And believe me girl it's true
That you're the only one for me babe
And it's me for you
There's nowhere to run to baby
Nowhere to hide
I'm following you so close now
You're better off by my side
I'm like lightning so frightening
Lovin' me's a dangerous game
Like lightning it's so frightening
There she goes dressed in black
And a string of pearls
Hair of gold falls down her back
She's natural
Walk into a crowded room
She takes me by the hand
Turning heads but I'm her man
She's natural
And she knows just what to do
How to get her message through
With brains and beauty too
It's not only skin deep
Gives a smile to everyone
Saves the best for me
When she does she
Tames the sun
Natural
There she goes dressed in black
And a string of pearls
Hair of gold falls down her back
Shes natural
Natural
Call me,
beep me,
love me more!
You saved my butt today
and for that i want to thank you.
And for that you are so sweet
Sweeter then sugar, baby.
Honey, honey
you're no match for my guy!
My guy is sweeter then you....
my guy is sweeter then you!
You can put my smile back on my face,
you can put my doubts in the right place,
in the back of my mind...
My guy who is...
Sweeter then sugar,
sweeter then honey,
sweeter then candy,
oh boy I love you so!
Have you heard on the radio?
My song is singing about you.
Have you seen on the patio,
I'm there thinking about you.
I'm always thinking about...
My guy who is...
Sweeter then sugar,
sweeter then honey,
sweeter then candy,
oh boy I love you so!
I'll love you till the end of time,
I'll love you and you'll always be mine!
And on my mind!
I can't say how much I love you in a song!
Because I will never, ever tell you
how much I love you!
(because I can't)
My guy who is...
Sweeter then sugar,
sweeter then honey,
sweeter then candy,
oh boy I love you so!
Boy, you know I can never tell you how much
I love you.
But maybe in a kiss you'll know!
Take away the music
Take away the good times
What have I left, I don't know
Take away the booze
Take away the ladies
What have I left, I don't know
Until know i've known no other way to live
Late in the evenings, hard and long long night
Wasted time that I always thought that I was right
Don't you ask me,'cause I I don't know if ya
Take away the music
Take away the good times
What have I left I don't know ho ho
Why should all the good nights
Turn in to past sights
Where has all the fun gone I don't know
Well, until now i've known no other way to live
Played the field, 'n' hard long long night
Wasted time that I always thought that, I was right
Don't you ask me,'cause I I don't know if ya
Take away the music
Take away the good times
What have I left I don't know
Take away the booze
Take away the ladies
What have I left, I don't know
Hit me with the music
Let me have the good times
Let me love the ladies
That's my life
Until now i've known no other way to live
Played the field, 'n' hard long long night
Wasted time that I always thought that, I was right
Don't you ask me,'cause I I don't know
Take away the music
Take away the good times
What have I left I don't know
(Until now i've known no other way) (Repeat 4 times)
In the midday sun
They beat on their drums
When Poppa Joe comes to town
With his coconut-rum
They can all have fun
They can drink it
'Till the sun goes down
Poppa Joe just smiles politely
With the money he takes he might be
Very rich one day as he hears them say
Poppa rumbo rumbo
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
Poppa rumbo rumbo
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
Poppa rumbo rumbo
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
hey Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
Hey Pop-, Poppa, Poppa Joe
Never see a sad face
in the market place
When Poppa Joe comes around
For his coconut taste
You can see them race
Through the streets
You can hear the sound
All of the ladies are laughing gaily
Poppa Joe's still thinking maybe
He'll always hear the people say
Poppa rumbo rumbo
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
Poppa rumbo rumbo
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
Poppa rumbo rumbo
Hey Poppa Joe coconut
Hey Poppa Joe, hey Poppa Joe
I met a girl who likes to dance
But there's only one way
To get inside her pants that's if I dance
Baby, there's no chance
Zombies brainwashed by the rhythm
Trapped inside their own escapism
In prison, I don't wanna be there
No, I don't wanna be there
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Everyone said disco is dead
With it's boom, boom, boom, boom, ahh
Give me a drink while you're rollerskating
I'll be here if you're waiting to be fed in your bed
I ain't gonna dance, disco ain't worth your masturbating
Rock and roll will still keep accelerating
I'll always be there, yeah, I'll always be there
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Everyone said disco is dead
With it's boom, boom, boom, boom, ahh
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Can't stand that disco music pain in my head
Everyone said disco is dead
Why all those younger guys
Falling for you in burlesque disguise
Making you feel like you're thirty
Just being dirty, you think I care
Who was that millionaire
Showing you his piles of golden hair
He was so rich but uneasy
Trying to tease me but I don't care
Painting your face
Hiding the pace of life
Beautiful past under the mask
You wear
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
How can you sleep at night
Knowing the secrets, secrets, secrets
Secrets you lock up tight
Taking ya chip off ya shoulder
It's good being older without a care
Painting your face
Hiding the pace of life
Beautiful past under the mask
You wear, yeah
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
The silver screen, you know what I mean
You're a movie star who's caught in a dream
You crawled into my bed like a cockroach
The things you said
Made me lose my head like a waterfall
You've got a mouth like a DC ten but I love you
You've got me in your arms
And your special charms, my
You, you got my head in circles
Ooh, loved you
And I don't want nobody but you
You fucking laugh at my inhibition
You made a fuss 'bout my Oedipus
From my mother's side
You feel away like a Sherman Tank but I love you
You're gonna take me there
I don't really care, my
You got my head in circles
Ooh, loved you
And I don't want nobody but you
Turn you run to me you bring your Mama
The way she freaks gives me the creeps
She's a mainline ma'am
You've got to know
What you're doin' to your Daddy
'Cos I love you
You've got me in your arms
Ooh, your precious charms
You, you got my head in circles
What a day for a daydream
What a day for a daydreamin', boy
And I'm lost in a daydream
Dreamin' 'bout my bundle of joy
And even if time ain't really on my side
It's one of those days for takin' a walk outside
I'm blowin' the day to take a walk in the sun
And fall on my face on somebody's new mowed lawn
I've been havin' a sweet dream
I've been dreamin' since I woke up today
It's starred me and my sweet dream
'Cause she's the one makes me feel this way
And even if time is passin' me by a lot
I couldn't care less about the dues you say I got
Tomorrow I'll pay the dues for droppin' my load
A pie in the face for bein' a sleepy bull toad
And you can be sure that if you're feelin' right
A daydream will last a long into the night
Tomorrow at breakfast you may pick up your ears
Or you may be daydreamin' for a thousand years
What a day for a daydream
Custom made for a daydreamin', boy
And I'm lost in a daydream
The New York girls, they've gone down to California
Don't say, they didn't warn ya
'Bout spendin' time in Miami FLA
That ain't no place to be anyway
Ooh, looking for someone in their life
Waiting for love to shine it's light
Everybody's dancin', California nights
Summer in the city, California nights
Boogie through to mornin', California nights
California never go away, I'm here to stay
Those Vegas chicks have gone and thrown it all away
They're gonna settle down in L.A.
They've heard the stories of Hollywood and stars
Sunset Boulevard and custom cars
From Roulette to room let, changing signs
Ceasers to Rainbow, life unwinds
Everybody's dancin', California nights
Summer in the city, California nights
Boogie through to mornin', California nights
California never go away, I'm here to stay
Everybody's dancin', California nights
Summer in the city, California nights
Boogie through to mornin', California nights
California never go away, I'm here to stay
Everybody's dancin', California nights
Summer in the city, California nights
Connolly/Priest/Scott/Tucker
I woke up this morning
My girl was not inside
Not inside my billfold
She's done me wrong allright
We've been all night a rockin'
At the house of blue night
Ah, ah, ah...
The band was really groovin'
With the shades of Jerry Lee
Somehow jiving, yeah she was taking me
Now she's gone and left me
Oh, baby let it be
Ah, ah, ah...
I didn't understand her
You know I mean her scene
Sleeps around for money
Or kick's that's twice as mean
But if I cross with her again
She'll find that I'm not green
Ah, ah, ah...
This woman's a hooker
I can't stand her
She's doing me wrong
The floor got up and hit my face
I couldn't make it to the door
I took a sip and drained the tap
And life became a finger snap
I couldn't understand it
My days were in a daze
Is it bloody Sunday?
I'd better say my prayers, oh yeah
Come on, the stars came down
I was higher than the 4th of July
Blitzin' right across the sky
High, high, higher
Believe the lies, I told myself
I wasn't into self denial, no way
I held my breath I count to ten
So turn around, 'round, 'round and do it again
I couldn't understand it
My life was all a blaze
Is it bloody Sunday?
My days were in a daze
When the stars came down
I was higher than the 4th of July
Blitzin' right across the sky
High, high, higher
And when the stars fell down
You know I' m gonna burn up the town
It's the 4th of July and I was getting so high
When the stars came down
I was higher than the 4th of July
Pitchin' right across the sky
Uh, uh, uh
Let me tell you ?bout my girl
Guaranteed to make your hair curl
Doing things that only she can do
Uh, uh, uh
She made the world a stage
Taking care of public image
She?s looking good, but then she always does
Here's what she wants to do at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna love you, oh, at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna make you mine at midnight
Uh, uh, uh
Money's everything to her
Gonna get her diamond and furs
But there's one thing money just can't buy
Uh, uh, uh
Love waits for the witchin' hour
Sell your soul for the taste of power
Still I love you but then I always will
Here's what I wanna do at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna love you, oh, at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna make you mine at midnight
When daylight comes to you
You hide from the world outside
Lover of the darkest night
Midnight's the time to get high
At midnight
Oh, I?m gonna love you, oh, at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna make you mine at midnight
At midnight
Oh, I?m gonna love you, oh, at midnight
Oh, I?m gonna make you mine at midnight
At midnight
Aah, aah
You better beware, you better take care
You better watch out if you've got long black hair
He'll come from behind, you go out of your mind
You'd better not go, you'd never know what you'll find
Aah, aah
You look in his eyes, don't be surprised
If you don't know what's going on behind his disguise
Nobody knows where Buster goes
He'll steal your woman out from under your nose
Does anyone know the way, did we hear someone say
We just haven't got a clue what to do
Does anyone know the way, there's got to be a way
To Block Buster!
The cops are out, they're running about
Don't know if they'll ever be able to Block Buster out
He's gotta be cought, he's gotta be taught
'Cos he's more evil than anyone here ever thought
Does anyone know the way did we hear someone say
We just haven't got a clue - ow!
Does anyone know the way, there's got to be a way
To Block Buster!
Does anyone know the way did we hear someone say
We just haven't got a clue what to do
Does anyone know the way, there's got to be a way
To Block Buster!
Aah, aah, aah, aah
We play for the fun
and we run for the glory
And it all seems to happen so fast
you used to love me
but now you ignore me
and my name is a thing of the past
I didn't rescue
for fortune or fame
I was happy to do it for love
you made me a hero
and I played the game
well I gave what I hade
and I guess it just wasn't enough
Now listen to them say
'Here he comes...
Yesterday's Hero
'Here he comes...
Yesterday's Hero
Well you called me the best
now you call me yesterday's hero
Have you seen a tiger
when he is in danger
How he runs from the scene of the crime
But I didn't listen
to my intuition
it was there in the back of my mind
I guess I should have seen it coming
Well it's happened before
And it was only a matter of time
Now everybody says
'Here he comes...
Yesterday's Hero
'Here he comes...
Yesterday's Hero
Well you called me the best
now you call me yesterday's hero
(Yesterday's Hero) Yesterday's Hero
(Yesterday's Hero)
We play for the fun
and we run for the glory
And it all seems to happen so fast
you used to love me
but now you ignore me
and my name is a thing of the past
Oh Yeah,
Now listen to them say
'Here he comes...
Yesterday's Hero
'Here he comes...
Yesterday's Hero
I'm still the best
and I won't be Yesterday's Hero

Never too young
Never too young
Growin' up, can take so long
Everything, you do is wrong
They don't let you, out at night
And nothing that, you do is right
You know when you hear it
You gotta be near it
Chorus
Never too young
Never too young
Never too young to feel your soul
Cut your teeth on rock & roll
Never too young
When you feel, you're in a cage
Out of bounds, underage
Magazines, you have to hide
Videos, that you're denied
You know when you hear it
You gotta be near it
Chorus
Chinn/Chapman
So your old man went and called you a degenerate bum
And you stood there crackin' on your cinnamon gun
And your Ma was knockin' at your sister's brains
And you couldn't help thinkin' what she hoped to gain
Just then that freak walked in the door
And knocked me to the floor
You said, hey man, you're on some kind of trip
He said, don't give me no lip
Just turn it down, come on turn it down
I can't take no more of that God awful sound
So for God's sake turn it down
Now the suspicious minds of your learned friends
Will eat away at your kind 'til the music ends
And the creep that taught you everything you know
Will hypocritically ask you what the hell you know
He'll go out and mess around, then go home without a sound
You said, hey man, you're some kinda monk
He said, listen here you punk
Just turn it down, come on turn it down
I can't take no more of that God awful sound
So for God's sake turn it down
Turn it down, just turn it down
Come on turn it down, I said turn it down
Come on turn it down, just turn it down
I can't take no more of that God awful sound
Hilton hotel room was small
Square box, two beds and four walls
I need the girl who is kind
Relief of my mind and body
I remembered the magazine ad
Pretty girls who will visit your pad
A knock at my door
Don't know what's in store for me
She said
Call me, call anytime
Call me when you want to unwind
Call me, daytime or night
Call me and I'll turn on your light
Oh, oh, oh, call me free phone
She walked in, I had to be strong
I felt she has always belonged
Ooh, I must keep calm
The sweat in my palm won't go away
She said, "Now please relax, my friend
I'll stay here 'til the very end"
She took off her shoes
Don't know what to do then
I heard her say
Call me, call anytime
Call me when you want to unwind
Call me daytime or night
Call me and I'll turn on your light
Oh, oh, oh
I lay on my belly
She rubbed the petroleum jelly
Her hand felt so good
Lie on my back, nearly blowing my sack
Oh, I wish you would
Surrender sweet
What she does with her feet
She satisfies and her pocket don't lie
Then she waved her "Goodbye"
Call me, call anytime
Call me when you want to unwind
Call me daytime or night
Call me and I'll turn on your light
Call me, call anytime
Call me when you want to unwind
Call me daytime or night
Call me and I'll turn on your light
Call me, call anytime
My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes I think you've seen me before
If you hear something late at night
Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
I think it's because I'm clumsy
I try not to talk too loud
Maybe it's because I'm crazy
I try not to act too proud
They only hit until you cry
And after that you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
(solo)
Yes I think I'm okay
I walked into the door again
Well, if you ask that's what I'll say
And it's not your business anyway
I guess I'd like to be alone
With nothing broken, nothing thrown
Just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am
Just don't ask me how I am
My name is Luka
I live on the second floor
I live upstairs from you
Yes I think you've seen me before
If you hear something late at night
Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
Just don't ask me what it was
They only hit until you cry
And after that you don't ask why
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore
You just don't argue anymore

…You be squawkin’ - but I’ll be off pimpin’
Leave my mark on y’all like my signature and imprint

Bamboo dinnertable that I throw my cake on
Thangs are lookin’ lovely even when you’re muggin’
Dude you need to stay out the eye of the public
Take it from a real dude – life is just a crap shoot
Either ride or die or get processed like some cat food

Big barkin’ dawg – my colla makes them women holla

Take it from me, the good life’s never out of reach
Breach of contract if you implicate the V
Don’t worry ‘bout me, I’m just chillin’ like a villain
And I’m never trippin’ unless it’s to overseas
Cuz I get the crowd hyped from here to Beverly
Hills – pay the bills – I got skills to keep you thrilled
When my album drops is When the Earth Stood Still
Like Keanu Reeves, have you caught up in the Matrix
Here’s a little taste to keep all you ladies cravin’
So I scoop ‘em up and head back to the Vill
Cuz if V don’t do it then another brother will
Ask me how I’m livin’ mein? I’m livin’ sweet!

here I stand with my soul to sell
to you, yeah
Play with fire you'll end up burned

I said if you wanna someone else

I tried so hard but I can't say no
I can't hold back I can't let go
a self destructive one man show
oh
You know I want you, you know I need you
I'd getdown on my knees and pray
you know I want to do what you do
I hang on every word you say
just give me one chance to do a new dance
I swear I'll try and change my ways
and then I do it all over again
do it all over again
Been down this road before
shouldn't do this any more
a voice inside my head says STOP
I search for pleasure but I just found pain
I can't get off this runaway train
so laugh at me while I cry in vain
oh
You know I love you, you know I want you
can you give me one more try
I didn't want to, I didn't mean to
I didn't need to make you cry
and I had to, you what I'd do
I'd take a trip right back in time and then
I'd do it all over again
I'd do it all over again
I wouldn't mind getting my hands
On a great big stack of Krugerrands
sell my soul and loose my friends
and a one way ticket to Africa
Gonna fill my pockets with Krugerrands
110 in the shade I don't care I've got it made
First in line for the gold parade
And a one way ticket to Africa
Krugerrands, Krugerrands, Krugerrands
Gonna fill my pockets with Krugerrands
Straight ahead no turnin' round
Bury my head deep in the ground
Save myself from going down
With a one way ticket to Africa
Krugerrands, Krugerrands, Krugerrands
Gonna fill my pockets with Krugerrands
I wouldn't mind getting my hands
Dirty with some Krugerrands
Sell my soul and loose my friends
With a one way ticket to Africa
Krugerrands, Krugerrands, Krugerrands
Gonna fill my pockets with Krugerrands (Repeat Twice)
Take a black cat I think of what you'll had
Here's a wildcat
Take a white mouse hiding in a house
Here's a colored love
Pay, pay, pay you can get it if you
Say, say, say that you wanna but
Hey, hey, hey, just remember it's the way
Day or nighttime you can really shine
With your groupie clothes
If the inside is on the outside
Everybody knows
Pay, pay, pay you can get it if you
Say, say, say that you wanna but
Hey, hey, hey, just remember it's the way
Take a black cat I think of what you'll had
Here's a wildcat
Take a white mouse hiding in a house
Here's a colored love
Pay, pay, pay you can get it if you
Say, say, say that you wanna but
Looking for starlight
The lady made it alright
She was the lady
And I knew right from the start
Sweet lady starlight
Come on and make it tonight
You turn it on so easy
And the lady is my lady starlight
Sing, the song should be sung
And love can be the voice
The tears in my eyes, I'm crying tears of joy
When you say I'm your boy
Looking for starlight
The lady made it alright
She was the lady
And I knew right from the start
Sweet lady starlight
Come on and make it tonight
You turn it on so easy
And the lady is my lady starlight
Time slips right on away
But why should I care what people say
I will watch over lady starlight
Looking for starlight
Dance, she dances a ballet
And Rudi is the king
I laugh when she's happy
The power's in my hands
And I must be a man
Looking for starlight
The lady made it alright
She was the lady
And I knew right from the start
Sweet lady starlight
Come on and make it tonight
You turn it on so easy
Everybody loves a star, makes no difference who you are
It's a good game when you're winning
They don't see you in the rain, when your crisis are pain
Do I find a new beginning?
No time to lose
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
You loved the fame and all it brings, but it's just roundabouts in swings
You never know which way you're goin'
You can always fall from grace, even though you're hot
The race is never won untill it's over
Out in the cold
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
Crisis
My identity crisis, my identity crisis
There are bridges to be crossed, got no time to count the cost
When the interest's gettin' higher
Money helps to pass the time, but it won't buy peace of mind
So much more to light the fire
Burning inside
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
Identity crisis, I'm going through my identity crisis
I wanna be committed
I wanna be committed
I thought I was a space-age cowboy
I thought I was a sweet and sour chow-boy
I thought I was a thinker
A juvenile drinker
I thought I had some kind of a brain
'Til they told me I was just a rumor
A cheap and nasty looner
Well, it turned out I was just insane
I wanna be committed, insanity permitted
I wanna be committed for my mind
I wanna be committed, don't let me be remitted
I wanna be committed if you don't mind
Well, at the dance last Saturday night
He was a rockin' and a rollin'
And holding her tight
'Till he got his hands on her
But when he started out to play
She kept pushing him away and he got a funny feeling
He was walking on the ceiling
And someone was heard to say, "If you don't mind, Sir"
I don't mind"
I thought I was a teenage dream-boy
With a brain made of solid plastic alloy
I thought I was a tripper, there ain't nobody hipper
But it turned out I was going down the drain
I wanna be committed, insanity permitted
I wanna be committed for my mind
I wanna be committed, don't let me be remitted
I wanna be committed if you don't mind
I wanna be committed
Insanity permitted
I wanna be committed for my mind
I wanna be committed
I wanna be committed
They thought you were crazy
When you took a walk right through the door
They don't know the reason
You just couldn't take it anymore
The lies that they told you
And the times that they sold you
Down the line
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
You gotta, you gotta
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
Counterfeit city
Spending your life in their charade (sorry for
yourself)
Sincerely phony
This musical masquerade has gone too far far far
You sold your clothes
Now it's cold up your nose
And you froze
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
Gotta gotta gotta gotta
Live for today - don't need your politician
Live for today - don't want no inquisition
Live for today - you gotta throw the rules away
You gotta live for today
You gotta throw it away
Gotta gotta live for today
You gotta throw it away
Get out of my way
I'm only live for today
Live for today
Throw it away...
When friends fall out
It's not the end of the world
When friends fall out
The flames won't burn in the cold
You can't hide from the lies
No matter how hard you try
When friends fall out
It's not the end of the world
Look into the mirror what do you see
The shadow of a man you used to be
Drowning in the tears of you self pity
When friends fall out
It's not the end of the world
When friends fall out
The flames won't burn in the cold
Empty words are to blame
You know it;s just a crying shame
When friends fall out
It's not the end of the world
When you face the future you look into the past
And dreams of yesterday are over too fast
But castles in the sand never last
When friends fall out
It's not the end of the world
When friends fall out
The flames won't burn in the cold
You can't hide from the lies
No matter how hard you try
When friends fall out
It's not the end of the world
Now here this,do not panic
Do As I Say, Do As I Say
When heads of state get together
To pass the pipe of peace around
WAR - they gotta keep the numbers down
Every double standard
They nail into the vanguard
And always let you down
Raise it to the ground
Do as I say, not as I do
You'd better
Do as I say, not as I do
This means you
Their smiles they keep in high profile
For paparazzi act docile
NO - the lessons we will never learn
On television they stand out
To lead the way in the hand outs
Cause there's money to be found
Watch them spill it on the ground
Do as I say, not as I do
You'd better
Do as I say, not as I do
Do as I say, not as I do
You'd better
Do as I say, not as I do
Well this means you
Armageddon needs action
To stop the chain of reactions
OH - but business wheels keep turning round
They're headed on a one-way street
But still the profits taste oh so sweet
Many mouths to feed
Just let the suckers bleed
Hear them say
Do as I say, not as I do
You'd better
Do as I say, not as I do
There talking to you
Ah do as I say, not as I do
You'd better
Do as I say, not as I do
This means you!
Tell me is it really true
This feelin' that I feel for you
Your own kind of lovin'
That makes me think
Nothing could ever take the place of you
And it's so funny, funny
What you do, honey, honey
What you do, what you mean to me
And you know, honey, honey
Though it's so funny, funny
That you mean all the world to me
Ever since you came my way
I knew it was my lucky day
The sun started shinin'
When you started smiling
And I know it's gonna stay that way
And it's so funny, funny
What you do, honey, honey
What you do, what you mean to me
And you know, honey, honey
Though it's so funny, funny
That you mean all the world to me
Can't imagine lovin' anyone but you
Honey honey, so funny funny
Every minute lovin' everything you do
Honey honey, so funny funny
Couldn't see my way without you
Now I gotta tell the world about you
Tell me is it really true
This feelin' that I feel for you
Your own kind of lovin'
That makes me think
Nothing could ever take the place of you
And it's so funny, funny
What you do, honey, honey
What you do, what you mean to me
And you know, honey, honey
Though it's so funny, funny
That you mean all the world to me
And it's so funny, funny
What you do, honey, honey
What you do, what you mean to me
And you know, honey, honey
Though it's so funny, funny
That you mean all the world to me
And it's so funny, funny
What you do, honey, honey
What you do, what you mean to me
If I could make a wish
I'd throw a coin in the fountain
But fantasies don't always come true
And if I had no dreams
I'd never climb the mountain
The hand of fate will always be reachin' out for you
Like gold your love is the rainbow's end
Flyin' high like a bird in the sky
Your love is the rainbow
Colors of love in the sky
I've been sayin' all my life
I don't believe in magic
But fountain of faith, I'm puttin' my trust in you
Circles on the water
From the coin that's sinkin' slowly down
My future's reflecting my destiny's callin' out to you
Like gold your love is the rainbow's end
Flyin' high like a bird in the sky
Your love is the rainbow
Colors of love in the sky
Well how much time do you need?
The fountain holds the key
To unlock the love deep in your heart
I have kissed the water's lips
And now we're floating free
With no love before this new life can start again
Like gold, your love is the rainbow's end
Flyin' high like a bird in the sky
Your love is the rainbow
I woke up this morning
My girl was not inside
Not inside my billfold
She's done me wrong allright
We've been all night a rockin'
At the house of blue night
Ah, ah, ah...
The band was really groovin'
With the shades of Jerry Lee
Somehow jiving, yeah she was taking me
Now she's gone and left me
Oh, baby let it be
Ah, ah, ah...
I didn't understand her
You know I mean her scene
Sleeps around for money
Or kick's that's twice as mean
But if I cross with her again
She'll find that I'm not green
Ah, ah, ah...
This woman's a hooker
I can't stand her
She's doing me wrong
This woman's a hooker...
We started something gonna get together
Every man and woman, boy and girl
Loving one another, all sisters and the brothers
Loving one another, 'round the world
[Chorus]
Get on the line
Get on the line for love, hey
Get on the line
Get on the line for love, hey
The sun is rising on a brand new morning
Got to tell the people everywhere
Got to pass it on, before all hope is gone
Let the man go by he didn't care
[Chorus]
Can't you see what's happening, open up your mind
Reach out your hands to your brothers and sisters
All you're gonna be left behind it and you know
[Chorus]
We started something gonna get together
Every man and woman, boy and girl
Loving one another, all sisters and the brothers
Loving one another, 'round the world.
Come on, get on the line
Get on the line for love, no, no, no
Get on the line
Get on the line for love
Get on the line
Get on the line for love
Clap your hands
Come on, come on
I think perfections nice
But I'm human so I will improvise
So what it's not the bull's eye
Cause I sharpen my arrow with every try
And no I not afraid of rock bottom I forward in my mail there often
You pick up every thing letters and the left over pieces of me
Special delivery always in time you fit perfectly

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Checkmark how to define sweet

Pains in my heart, torturin' me with desire

Walkin' down the street, there's nobody there
Cry in my sleep as long as I'm with her, I don't care

She gave me love then I'm alright
Uh i got the blues
For yesterday's news
Allright
Rock on
Well he's six feet tall
And he's three feet wide
And when he's turned up loud
You'd better step aside
He's got a heart that's burning fire and steel
That's the kind of heat that gives him man appeal
Broad at the shoulder, broad at the hip
Everybody knows you don't give no lip
To Mr. Marshall Stack
He's dressed in black
With a power attack
He's Mr. Marshall Stack
Oh he don't mess around
When he's on parade
You can see them smile
This man is not afraid
Not by a million miles
See his boys in their uniform
Join the regiment and get your shoulder worn
All you need is guts to handle fire and power
With Mr. Black around you see the opposition cower
Marshall Stack
He's dressed in black
With a power attack
He's Mr. Marshall Stack
Heavy loaded
Unexploded
Oh don't go playing with that gun
I'm your mother now son
When your out in the battlefield
With Mr. Stack behind you feel invincible
When you hear that sound you're in seventh heaven
This motherfucker goes right up to eleven
Marshall Stack
He's dressed in black
With a power attack
He's Mr. Marshall Stack
Marshall Stack
That's where it's at
He's dressed in black
The man in black is back
With a power attack
Give you a heart attack
He's Mr. Marshall Stack
Oh must be back
Marshall Stack
He's on the attack
He's dressed in black
Gonna break your back
Power attack
Old marshall stack
He's mr. marshall stack
Oh he's on the attack
Marshall Stack
Oh your all the same to me
With your B.B.C
Ahh yea
Sunshine takes me to a place where I'm living free
Something in your eyes is telling me this is where I want to be
But I never thought it would be so
Sweet, sweet, sweet
The way you make me feel
It's funny how it just gets sweeter and sweeter day by day?
It's sweet how you just get funnier to me in every way
But I never thought it would be so
Sweet, sweet, sweet
The way you make me feel
Sweet, sweet, sweet
I can't believe you're real
It's so rare to find someone who
Brings on the sunshine the way you do
It's so
Sweet, sweet, sweet
The way you make me feel
Sweet, sweet, sweet
Paul Keating:
I've been out there pacing
Bracing for defeat
Ready to be roasted
And I felt that demon heat
But I got lifted
When I thought that I would fall
Now this feels like the sweetest victory of all
Never felt too comfy
Up there on the top
I felt like Humpty Dumpty
And I was waiting for the drop
But I got lifted
I'm floating high above the wall
Now this feels like the sweetest victory of all
I thank my wife and son and daughters
My faithful supporters
You kept my team full of steam
I thank the people of the nation
For their validation
Keep on believing in the dream
You know that I've been wishin'
I had a second shot
Thanks to your decision
That's exactly what I got
And I got lifted
Now I hear my country call
Band:
We want Paul! We want Paul!
Keating:
Now this feels like the sweetest victory
Now it seems like y'all wanna stick to me
Another day I waste more time
Still running things around my mind
Should I stay another day
We were lovers so they say
What becomes of love when love is all but gone
How much longer can I carry on
Oh lord can't believe we're through
Is it true baby please don't lie
There's just a memory of what we had before
Is it true baby
Oh please don't lie
And then I stopped and think again
Well maybe we could stay as friends
But do friends act the way we do
Is it me baby is it you
There was a time when we could
Laugh and talk things out
But all we seemed to do is fight and shout
Oh lord can't believe we're through
Is it true baby please don't lie
There's just a memory of what we had before
Is it true baby
Oh please don't lie
Times we had and times we cried
Times when we very nearly put aside
All our differences and all our pain
Those were the times when we would celebrate
Oh lord can't believe we're through
Is it true baby please don't lie
There's just a memory of what we had before
Is it true baby
Face, face, face
Face, face, face
I put my face, my face to the window
I took a look through a crack in the blind
Then I could see she wasn't alone
I wasn't sure what I wanted to find
Chorus
Face, face
Face at the window
Face, face
Opened my eyes
Face, face
Face at the window
Face, face
Opened my eyes
She saw my face, my face at the window
She didn't show any shock or shame
No trace of surprise, no emotion
She was so locked into her love games
Chorus
Face, face, face
Face, face, face
Now I want to forget her
Gonna get out and find somebody new
I put my face, my face to the window
'Cross the room was a chain reaction,
She stood up and walked to my window
Her smile, her attraction for....
My face, face, face
Face, face, face
Face, face, face
Face, face, face
Chorus
North side, east side
Little Willy
Willy wears the crown
He's the king around town
Dancing, glancing
Willy drives them silly
With his star shoe
Shimmy shuffle down
Way past one and feeling alright
'Cos with little Willy
Round they can last all night
Hey down, stay down, stay down, down
'Cos little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round, Willy won't go
Try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
Up town, down town
Little Willy
Willy drives them wild
With his run-around style
Inside, outside
Willy sends them silly
With his star-shine
Shimmy shuffle smile
Mama done chase
Willy down through the hall
But laugh, Willy laugh, he don't care at all
Hey down, stay down, stay down, down
'Cos little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round, Willy won't go
Try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't
Willy won't, Willy won't
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round, Willy won't go
Try tellin' everybody but, oh no
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
Little Willy, Willy won't go home
But you can't push Willy round, Willy won't go
Try tellin' everybody but, oh no

Momma let me out on a Saturday night
She said, "Now go out and get her, go and hold her tight"
I said, "Now, momma, you don't understand, every time I touch her hand
It's like I'm burning in the fires of Hell
And if I hold it too long, you never can tell
What'll happen to me, wouldn't want you to see"
Look out!

She's like a live bombshell, like a flash out of hell
When she shakes it up, ooh! Everyone fell
It's a feeling that's neat and she took me completely
By suprise with her ultrasonic eyes
Flashing like hysterical danger signs that said
Beware where you tread or you'll go out of your head
Look out!

Red light, green light,speedin' through the dark night
Drivin' through thee poundin'rain
I gotta see Jane
Windshield wipers, splishin',splashin'
Callin' out her name
Just gotta see Jane
I left her arms to find my way,
To find a plce,the constant chase to win the race
Have left me cold inside
I'Ve gotta find what I left behind
* Red light, green light, speedin' through the dark night
Drivin' through the poundin' rain
I gotta see Jane
Freeway,byway, tearin' up the highway
Runnin' from a world insane
Just gotta see Jane
A town of steel that isn't real,
It could not feeel what's in the heart of me
I was so alone in a world of stone
I missed her arms that once held me
That made me see I was the only one
Without her there I was runnin' scared
And I feel the touch of time
Turnin' th wheel of life to yesterday
When love and happiness were mine
I've gotta find that world of Jane an d me like it used to be
Her love for me I pushed aside
Walked out alone to face a world turned cold
Although I tried I could not survive
the frantic pace, the constant chase to win the race
it's not part of me
I've gotta find waht i left behind
* Red light, green light, speedin' through the dark night
Drivin' through the püondin' rain
In gotta see Jane
Freeway,byway,tearin' up the highway
Runnin' from a world insane
Her love for me I pushed aside
Walked out alone to face a world turned cold
Although I tried I could not survive
The frantic pace,the constant chase to win the race
It's not part of me
I've gotta find what I left behind
I've gotta see Jane
I've gotta see Jane
I've gotta see Jane
3 down, 2 up
He's gonna take a shot
Alabama green base
The dice is his vice
He throws those dice, to save his life
He's spinning around, with the wheel...
Alabama fever, yeah
He's gone too far
That mississippi man
He wants to be a star
But the New York hustler, huh
He's got his eye on him
With his fingers in his pocket
Of that satin vest, yeah
He'll bring him down
To see his shot
To call his bluff
Yeah just to put him down
When the aces are around
Hey mister, you got a spare place here?
Well, I'm just passin' through
And I need to waste some time
On my way down the line, yeah
Alabama fever
He's gone too far, huh
Ok Buddy, you can pull up a chair
But the New York hustler
Oh, he wasn't aware
Of the rules of the game, huh
He'll high roll no more
He reached too far
Into the pocket of that satin vest
Goodbye Alabama, hello Skid Row
He's going back
Skid Row I'm coming; I got,
I went too far
Well I don't need any dirty pictures
Watching films in a sleazy dive
I get no kicks out watching blue films
You know that I rather see it live
You know it really turns me on
It won't be long before I come
And honey I ain't talking about sex
I'm wearing X-Ray Specs
And I'm having you in view
I'm wearing X-Ray Specs
And I'm watching you
And I'm watching
Yeah I'm watching
I'm wearing X-Ray Specs
I love the way you do your makeup
I love the way that you do your hair
But I don't care what you might be wearing
Cause for me you are dressed in air
You know it really turns me on
It won't be long before I come
And honey I ain't talking about sex
I'm watching you, I'm wearing X-Ray Specs
I'm watching you and I'm wearing
Year I'm watching
You know it really turns me on
It won't be long before I come
You've better believed me
I've been right here for you
Wastin' all these years
Shed so many tears - I still need you
Fell right into your arms
I couldn't resist your charms
You're cheating on me, why?
You fool me with a lie - I still need you
I've cried my last tear, lady
Let's give it time and maybe
We'll see before it's too long
We have played it all out wrong to
Wait till the morning comes
Wait for the rising sun
Wait till the fighting's done
I'm looking for excuses anymore
Too late to say 'farewell'
You've waved and you've cast your spell
There's no way I can learn
I've got nowhere to turn - I still need you
I've cried my last tear, lady
Let's give it time and maybe
We'll see before it's too long
We just played it all out wrong
Wait till the morning comes
Wait to the rising sun
Wait till the fighting's done
I'm not looking for excuses anymore
How much longer can this fight go on?
It seems it's now forever and a day
Is there any way?
Wait till the morning comes...
'Till the morning comes
To the rising sun
Stay till the fighting's done
When i got back this time
After 5 weeks on the road
I didn't expect to find you living in clover
I wasn't at all impressed by the company you kept
So just like ulysses i rolled them over
Here to stay, an if you wanna stick around ya gonna
play my way
Here to stay, and things will be changing
Chorus
To the heart, let my arrows fly
Straight to the heart
Just like ulysses
Your no penelope your forever outta line
But your my woman, and you bowl me over
You never think of me and ya waste my precious time
The kinda girl who wants to roll me over
Here to stay, and i'm sweeping away what ever gets in
my way
Here to stay, and things will be changing
Chorus
Here to stay, and i'm sweeping away what ever gets in
my way
Here to stay, and things will be changing
Chorus
You know I've tried to cool it
I've been trying to settle down
But when I think I'm made it
It drives me crazy
Well, I'm staying on the wild side
Always hit the higher ground
Nothing I do could amaze me
I'm so restless, so restless
You know it's too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now
Well, I've always been outrageous
But a change has gotta come
Making up my mind was never easy
I was born to late to love you
The day will never come
It's love that I need so don't tease me
I'm so restless, so restless
You know it's too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now
I'm so restless, so restless
I gotta say it's too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now
I gotta say ya, too late now
Too late now, too late now
Gagged, ball and chained
Feel just the same
Heads on the wall
Maybe you're just playing games
Set me free
Mauled by a hound
Hangin' around
Is this for real?
I don't know when I'll be found
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free from you
Taken by force
By you of course
Far from my bed
I know I'd rather be dead
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free from you
Fire in my brain
Burn me insane
Making your mark
Don't leave me here in the dark
Set me free
Call me a saint
That's what I ain't
Inside my head
Maybe I'll feel better dead
Set me free
Set me free
I was a young boy
Yeah, she was young too
So in love but they don't understand
Games that we played
Blue shadows in a doorway
Stealing time forbidden kisses
I wanted to stay
But I had to go away
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird come take me home to you
Well, it's been five years
Unjustified years
Other girls that just don't make it
Face to face with you
Red sunset through my window
I won't sleep tonight, I'm comin' home
Please let it be
That you're waiting there for me
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird come take me home to you
Silver bird, I'm comin' back
I know, you'll be waitin' for me
Take me now, I think I'm a simple man
Just give me some loving and an easy living plan
But everyday now someone pulls my life
Sixties I say hey you got to get inside
Sunny days are over and gone for good
Shape up boy, you ain't working like you should
Well I know now I'm a man and I love this place
Don't have the 1980's kind of face
'Cause I'm a sixties man, at last, I know it's true
Woodstock nights, oh where are you?
Strawberry fields and San Fransisco too
'Cause I'm a sixties man and it's hard, maybe so are you
'Cause I'm a sixties man and it's hard, maybe so are you
Flower power, you never knew much pain
Sitting round, loving in and loving out again
Oh the seventies, I found I hardly knew
They left me high and dry and now I wonder why
'Cause I'm a sixties man, at last, I know it's true
Woodstock nights, oh where are you?
Strawberry fields and San Fransisco too
'Cause I'm a sixties man and it's hard, maybe so are you
'Cause I'm a sixties man and it's hard, maybe so are you
'Cause I'm a sixties man, Bob Dylan, oh, where are you?
I'm a sixties man, at last, I know it's true
Sixties man and hard like you
'Cause I'm a sixties man, at last, I know it's true
It takes eight days where I wanna go
Well, there's just me am I only go
I've got no face to make this slow
The further I travel the less I know
Somebody help me get home
I can't spend my whole life alone
Somebody help me get home
I don't wanna be on my own
Won't somebody point me in the right direction
'Cause all I need is a New York connection
Really need a woman's affection
I've got to make the close connection
Somebody help me get home
I can't spend my whole life alone
Somebody help me get home
I don't wanna be all alone
Somebody help me get home
I can't spend my whole life alone
Somebody help me get home

Who is the face that's gonna set the pace?
I'm a rocker, I'm a roller, I'm in outer space
Come on, come on, well you come on strong
With my knees all weak from your lightning streak
Like a thunder flash, supersonic crash
He appears, you'll freeze knock your head over heels
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Rebel rouser, rebel rouser
Cosmic king, worship everything
'Bout the rebel rouser, rebel rouser
Juvenile jive
Gotta be a rebel rouser
Gotta be a rebel rouser
Gotta be a rebel rouser
He got U.V. eyes that can hypnotize
And his sky high lies infrared disguise
Who is the guy who's gonna catch your eye?
I'm a supersonic razor lasered from the sky
Look out, look out, when the rebel's out
He can chill your veins, explode your brain
He was born to rule, baby, he's no fool
He was heaven sent, but his soul's hell bent
Alright, alright, alright, alright
Rebel rouser, rebel rouser
Cosmic king, worship everything
'Bout the rebel rouser, rebel rouser

Juvenile jive
Gotta be a rebel rouser

Gotta be a rebel rouser
Gotta be a rebel rouser
Through the mirror of my mind
Time after time
I see reflections of you and me
Reflections of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
The love you took from me
Ooh, I'm all alone now
No love to shield me
Trapped in a world that's
A distorted reality
Happiness you took from me
And left me alone with only memories
Through the mirror of my mind
Through the tears that I'm cryin'
Reflects the hurt I can't control
'Cause although you've gone
I keep holding on
To the happy time
Uh, when you were mine
As I peer through the window of lost time
Looking over my yesterdays
And all the love I gave all in vain
(All the love)
All the love that I've wasted
(All the tears)
All the tears that I've tasted
(All in me)
All in me
Through the hollow of my tears
I see a dream that's lost
From the hurt that you have caused
Everywhere I turn
Seems like everything I see
Reflects the love that used to be
In you I put
All my faith and trust
Right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust
After all these nights
I sat alone and wept
Just a handful of promises
All of that?s left of loving you
Reflections of
The way life used to be
Ooh, reflections of
The love you took from me
In you I put
All my faith and trust
Right before my eyes
My world has turned to dust
Ooh, reflections of
The way life used to be
Reflections of
(Andy Scott)
I was a king thought of everything
Into the night
Then I was out everybody shout
Into the night
I kinda was having lots of fun
Into the night
And now I've lost gotta count the cost
Into the night
I couldn't lose
When I was on top
I couldn't lose
But now it's all stopped
I wore a crown then began to frown
Into the night
I cast a spell and it fell on me
Into the night
I dig a hole 'cause I got no soul
Into the night
I hear a phone then began to moan
Into the night
I couldn't lose
When I was on top
I couldn't lose
But now it's all stopped
I'm in a sea floating on one knee
Into the night
I think I'll drown oh I'm going down
Into the night
Is this a dream in agolden beam
Into the night
I look up high and there's no sky
Into the night
I couldn't lose
When I was on top
I couldn't lose
But now it's all stopped
In the discos and the bars
They're playing eyes games
Venus is watching Mars
They're playing eye games
Come and try games
They're playing eye games
Electric attraction
In the night air
Eyes meet and break away
You can't show her you care
It's one of love's puzzles
The secrets in her eyes
Does it mean I'm on the right track
Is there a chance for romance
In the discos and the bars
They're playing eyes games
Venus is watching Mars
They're playing eye games
Come and try games
They're playing eye games
All round the citie
They stealing glances
She looks so pretty
I'll have to take my chances
The music's getting louder
You try to talk to her
You find it hard to concentrate
Wandering eyes must watch and wait
In the discos and the bars
They're playing eyes games
Venus is watching Mars
They're playing eye games
Come and try games
They're playing eye games
They're playing eye games (3x)
Her face was turnin' red
And everybody's talkin' 'bout
The way that she's preferred
Was it six or seventeen?
And old enough to know about
The things that should be clean
And where she should have been
The things that I do at midnight
You ain't gonna say at daylight
I looked into a ring
A voice from way inside said
"Oh you pretty thing"
My head was in a state
And every time you came with me
You said that you were late
I should have had you mate
The things that I do at midnight
You ain't gonna say at daylight
The things that I do at midnight
I'll do it again
If I have to love you from afar
You'll do it again
Before we get too far
And I'll hurt you again
Baby if you'll hurt me one more time
'Cause love that's bad
Is better than none
You know breaking up is half of the fun
And who would want a dream
That can't be real
I'll do it again
I will let you take me for a ride
You'll do it again
Start opening then hide
And I'll hurt you again
Baby if you'll hurt me one more time
'Cause love that's bad
Is better than none
You know breaking up is half of the fun
And who would want a dream
That can't be real
I'll do it again...
A love that's bad
Is better than none
You know breaking up is half of the fun
And who would want a dream
That can't be real
And I'll hurt you again
Baby if you'll hurt me one more time
'Cause love that's bad
Is better than none
You know breaking up is half of the fun
And who would want a dream
That can't be real
I'll do it again
I'll do it again
I believe the dreams she weaves
Turnin' a wheel 'till nothing is real
At her call the mighty fall
Echo insane, her laughter remains
Shaded tear for souvenirs
Sharing your past, the memory lasts
Oh, I love her, ooh yeah
She leads the way 'till my night turns to day
I can't give enough of my lovin'
To Laura Lee
My sweet Laura Lee
I can't give enough of my love
To Laura Lee
Sweet Laura Lee
Years of gold, her wings unfold
Carry me back to when I was young
Virgin days that slipped away
I love her today more than my words could say
I can't give enough of my lovin'
To Laura Lee
My sweet Laura Lee
I can't give enough of my love
To Laura Lee
Sweet Laura Lee
I need all her love
A candle flickers in a window
Two thousand miles away she waits there
There's a young man thinking by a window
How was she to know just how much he cared
He always knew just what he could do
He always knew that his dream would come true
Alexander Graham Bell
Well, he knew darned well
That he could find the only way
To talk across the USA
Telephone, telephone
Never be on your own
Many many years ago
He started something with his first "Hello, hello"
Alexander Graham Bell
Alexander Graham Bell
Alexander Graham, Alexander Graham
Alexander Graham Bell
The sun rises early in the morning
Millions of people still unaware
Of something he discovered without warning
So he could show a girl just how much he cared
He always knew just what he could do
He always knew that his dream would come true
Alexander Graham Bell
Well, he knew darned well
That he could find the only way
To talk across the USA
Telephone, telephone
Never be on your own
Many many years ago
He started something with his first "Hello, hello"
Alexander Graham Bell, Alexander Graham Bell
Alexander Graham Bell
Well, he knew darned well
That he could find the only way
To talk across the USA
Telephone, telephone
Never be on your own
Many many years ago
He started something with his first "Hello, hello"...
You're a heterosexual dream
A super phallic machine
Well, who do you think you are
Well, you think you're a star
Yeah, a rock'n roll star, you are
Oh, you part your lips that way
Do you care what people say
The chicks know what you are
Well, they think you're a star
Yeah, a rock and roll star, you are
Rock'n roll
You're rock'n roll queen
Don't you know what I mean
Oh, you know
You're a rock'n roll queen
A young man's dream
Given guitar's head
In a silver stream of red
Has it gone too far
Then you know you're a star
Yeah, a real superstar, you are
Rock'n roll
You're rock'n roll queen
Don't you know what I mean
Oh, you know
You're a rock'n roll queen
A young man's dream
Rock'n roll
You're rock'n roll queen
Don't you know what I mean
Oh, you know
You're a rock'n roll queen
A young man's dream
You're a heterosexual dream
A super phallic machine
Who do you think you are
Well, you think you're a star
Yeah, a rock'n roll star, you are
Hey cricket, keep it down
I'm trying to get some sleep right now
And nobody wants to hear your sad love sick lonely blues song anyways
You say your love is gone
Well mine is too
So put that fiddle away
And you can watch me drink this amber pain reliever
And in a little while I won't even need her
CHORUS
Then again, if she ever does come rolling up
I've left a space beside my car out in the drive
I'm gonna leave her name up with mine on the mail box just in case
And a light on so she'll know that I'm alive
Half of me know she's gone
And the other half just wants to dream on
There's my girl looking at me
From a photo, on the beach about 93
Her heads thrown back, she's laughing
Looks like leaving me was the last thing on her mind
It just makes me want to dream some more
That someday she'll walk through that door
But there's two of me, one on either shoulder
And ones whispering
Forget it man, its over
CHORUS
Then again, if she ever does come rolling up
I've left a space beside to car out in the drive
I'm gonna leave her name up with mine on the mail box just in case
And a light on so she'll know that I'm alive
Half of me know she's gone
And the other half just wants to dream on
(Dream on)
Man she's gone
(Man she's gone)
Then again, if she ever does come rolling up
I've left a space beside my car out in the drive
I'm gonna leave her name up with mine on the mail box just in case
And a light on so she'll know that I'm alive
Half of me know she's gone
And the other half just wants to dream on
(Dream on)
I met the healer in the twilight of my life
He was the purity in my madness side
He take me far beyond the sunshine and the snow
My faith in him ignites a charismatic glow
Cure me, cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me
He leads me through the twisted chasms of my mind
He saved me from the fated final sacrifice
He spoke to me with the palm of his hand
I hear you calling
I hear you calling
I hear you calling
I hear you calling
Deliver me, deliver me, deliver me, deliver me
Deliver me, deliver me
I am the healer in the twilight of your life
I am the purity in your madness side
Cure me, cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me, cure me
Cure me, cure me
I speak to you with the palm of my hand
I am the healer
I am the healer
I am the healer
I am the healer
Deliver me, deliver me, deliver me, deliver me
Deliver me, deliver me
Healer
