I've been running from a dark horse
I can't lose it
I've been calling to an old cross
Don't excuse it
Well I've paid them back, and I'm alright
Gotta mean kinda woman, she's outta sight
Well I don't mind not sitting in the old booth
At the back, don't break the house rules
I go looking for my ego
Don't explain it
No more laughing I believe girl
Just sustain it
Well I got a home and it's alright
With a mean kinda woman, she's outta sight
Well I don't know 'bout messing up the old school
Don't mind 'bout breading all the house rules
I got things I wanna do girl
Don't abuse it
I don't wanna be a bad boy
You don't fool me
Well you don't need me
Well that's alright
What a guy's gotta live with
Is outta sight
I just wanna eat anything paid for
You're a --- goodness, lips of danger
It's a beast
Hey, hey, I'm breaking my rules
Oh yeah
I don't need no one to tell me
I don't need no one to tell me
What to do girl
No, no no no, said no
Oh, oh, girl, alright
Well, here we go
I got things I wanna do girl
Don't abuse it
I don't wanna be a bad boy
You don't fool me
Well I've been mean
Well that's alright
Got a cat kinda woman
She's outta sight
I just wanna be everything you told me
You don't sit philosophy
Yes it is
Hey hey, Oh, hey, hey, hey, ooh
Hey hey hey hey hey hey, hey hey hey hey yeah
I don't need no one to tell me
I don't need no one to tell me

Take the water from my brain
And make me feel at home
Not to feel alone
And every time I look behind
I keep on thinking black
There ain't no looking back
Riding my nightmare
Riding my nightmare
Riding my nightmare
And it won't be long
You will find me there
Hold the water from the well
And wipe my sweat away
You know it hard at bay
Ease your mind with better choice
And then in time to come
Think I'm me as one
Riding my nightmare
Riding my nightmare
Riding my nightmare
And it won't be long

I don't see the future, I feel it day to day
Dirty nights are passing by, I gotta learn to pay
Trucking down to London, gigs that never end
Foggy days and motorways
Will drive me round the bend
An' again (x 8)
Went to see my agent, natty looking gent
Dirty dates and dirty plays,
We must be trucking bent
Only real solution, help me on my way
Close my eyes and visualize
Some peace to help me play
When time is tight your look ain't right
And keeping time is an upward climb
P's and q's just follow you
And all the time you feel the grime like hell
Creeping down the highway, feel like one per cent
May god make the papers say
We're going where we'll win
We don't mind a work down
When the night is through

You and I don't talk now
It didn't start out that way
I'm bored with the game now
I think it's too late
I've had time alone
To think things through somehow
I can't hold back to forget the pain I'm feeling now
Oh, Russia what went wrong?
Why won't you tell me aren't you that strong?
Cut out my heart with your switchblade eyes
There's no alibis
I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia)
Hanging out in Stalin square
I'm bored with Russia (bored with Russia)
You won't talk so I don't care
What are you hiding?
I've asked myself a thousand times
You said it's no good,
Why don't you make up your mind?
Oh, Russia I've got to say
I'm tired of feeling this way
Oh, Russia before it's too late

Look inside and you will see
The words are cutting deep inside my brain
On they're burning quickly turning
Knife of words is driving me insane, insane
Yeah, yeah
Raven black is on my track
Please show me how to neutralise the knife
Show to me in surgery
The art of finding words to conquer life, or can try
Yeah, yeah
Ooh baby, I can rock and roll
Ooh baby, get out of my soul
Now the wicked lance I fear
Driven from my heavy mounted brain
Crash course in brain surgery
Stops the bloody knife of love again

Young girl so naive
Young and hungry, seventeen
Sweet thing, peaches and cream
Sells her body, lives in a dream
She found love, she found it in his eyes
Drifts about so all she does is cry
Young girl learning fast,
She's so different she has no past
Nightlife takes it's toll on the sweet thing
She's growing old
She found love, she found it in his arms
Drifts about, he's always telling lies
Young girl tired of rejection
Young girl needing some affection
Young girl realizes her body,
Is her ticket to life
Sweet thing she walks out
So she tells him and starts to shout
She found love, she found it in his eyes
He's got a gun now she's gonna die
Young girl, tired of rejection
Young girl, needing some affection
Young girl, tired of rejection
Young girl, needing some affection

You're the biggest thing since powdered milk
Believe for me it's true
I can't give you any old thing
But we just got to be good too
My oh my, my kinda woman
In an all time winning gaffe
I knew some sunny story 'bout a novel and a man
Though it hurts me when I cry
Oh woman child
Oh give it all to me
You're The Biggest Thing Since Powdered milk
Believe for me it's true
I can't give you my guitar
It's all decided blue
You're all I ever want
Oh I need you more and more
But I don't need nobody else
To give me what I came here for
Though it hurts me when I cry
Oh woman child
Oh give it all to me
(SOLO)
Watch out or the woman will ruin my soul
Watch out or the woman will take you whole
Oh woman to woman no tears, my soul
That kinda of a woman will ruin my home
And when you want him you tell him 24, tell him 24
The mind is burning
Bright lights in my brain
My mind is confusing
The rich with the sane
Oh woman to woman
Not afraid of the snow
Believe me woman
Don't lead me home
And when you want him
You tell him 24, tell him 24
Oh Yeah
What kind of a woman will ruin my soul
What kind of a woman will leave me whole

You're opening doors, I'm showing you mine
Kill some time, and taking our lifetime away
I know I feel lost following you
Holding the sign that promised
Room for another view
I never worry about the wind and rain
I never hurry it tell me you're the same
I couldn't live with a black tomorrow
And I'll be sure that it heard it's name
Well you know the tale
I told you before
You're calling the shots

Sun and moon and sky above me.
These are things I treasure most
Sun that lights my way goes on and on and on.
Simple things will not be lost.
You know I'll always love you,
No matter where you are
Feel it all around you
My love will travel far.
Sea of grass and earth below me.
These are things I treasure most.
Men who read the signs go on and on and on.
Better things will soon be gone.
You know I'll always love you
No matter where you are
Feel it all around you

Come on everyone of you g.I's
You are the ones who can care
Speed on you wonderful dropouts
We'll break the walls of this room in
Zoom along, superstar
All over the land
Move on music man
Come on everyone of you people
You ain't got mud in your eyes
Tell everybody with hunger
Eat up the music tonight
Come on you'll only get harder
I wanna get it to you
You are my life
You turn around in your zoot suit
Come on everyone of you preachers
You do the best that you can
Move on every one of you teachers

Still the sound of voices whisper tenderly
Still the sound of voices whisper tenderly
Don't go away, don't go away
Oh the summer time, pictures in a dream
Do the people play the game?
And fill an empty stream
When it comes to reasons for what is said and done
All the lights are broken
By another lonely tonight
Still the sound of voices whisper tenderly
Don't go away, don't go away
Sit you down beside me, light my darkened way
Someone said look out for now,
The future still remains
Past is gone and now the day is slowly drifting by
Look out my friend don't be a loser
Save yourself and cry, have abandon freedom
Don't go away, don't go away
Life can last a love time, open up your book
Come and take a look inside this heart of mine
I'll reveal behind my seal of endless words I say
Pass a little love my way don't hide
Only fools would turn a page
And walk away from me

Time to remember, I can remember
The time has come to lift derision
The change has left a mark of persuasion
I can remember
Carrier of the great fire
I'm so sorry, I'm sorry
Carrier of the great fire
Give me one more chance, just one more
Time to remember, I can remember
You never thought the time would come
The shadowed cell has fallen down
I can remember
Carrier of the great fire
Please believe me and I'll know
Carrier of the great fire
Oh, you got to hear me, you got to know
Carrier of the great fire
Why just walk out, why not go?
Carrier of the great fire
Oh, you caught me out again
Carrier of the great fire
Oh, it's my time to remember, and I know
Carrier of the great fire
I will cry again, I will try again
Carrier of the great fire
Oh, I need your help, I need your help
Carrier of the great fire

Happiness is what you want, all I get is pain
But if I left you pretty baby,
Would you have me back again?
You need somebody baby, to tell you what to say
You need somebody baby, to show you all the way
Need somebody baby, tell you what to say
You need somebody baby, to show,
Show you all the way
Hey woman, wipe off the ink from your eyes
Hey woman, why do you think you're so wise?
Hey lover, what do you punish me for?
Hey woman, what passes behind the door
Give me a bite of the apple, my hands are tied
Give me your inky pen and come on back,
Come on back to me
Hey woman, why don't you love me again?
Oh woman I wanna be your best friend
Ooh lover, what do you punish me for?
Hey woman, past is now behind the door
Give me a bite of the apple, my hands are tied
Give me your inky pen and come on back,

Stranded! stranded like a lily on a pond
Stranded!
Stranded and I think that I've gone wrong
Stranded! won't somebody help me get away
Stranded! there between the time of night and day
I'm stranded every way I look
I'm stranded on a river
Stranded like a honeysuckle gypsy to a giver
Stranded like a damsel locked up in a tower
Stranded like a minute stranded in the hour
Stranded! every every every way I go
Stranded! stranded and I think you ought to know
Stranded! stranded I've got problems on my mind
Stranded! stranded and I think you're not my kind
Oh no, you're not my kind!
Stranded! stranded every every way I go
Stranded! stranded and I think you ought to know
Stranded! stranded like a fish upon a beach
Stranded! stranded and I think it's out of reach
Well I'm stranded every where I look
I'm stranded in a river
Stranded like a honeysuckle gypsy to a giver
Stranded if you wanna be stranded if you don't
Stranded like a martian landing in a font

Secret in my head
Secret in my head
I get the feeling again
You don't believe it when I say
Sometimes each lonely day
Keeping these secrets in my head
If you could understand me
I would be drawn into your fire
But you could not relate
So I'm left with my desire
Someday I'll change my mind
Taking some action in my brain
Everything passed me by
I'll never be the same again
I have the same old feeling
That I was right in what I say
Sometimes each lonely day

Ooh woman, taste my rock and roll
Ooh woman, make it hot as cold
And I'm running
Running to my very soul
One day woman walking down that street
I saw my lover she sure looked sweet
Oh now mean I feel my rock and roll
And I'm running
Running to my soul
Ooh woman, taste my rock and roll
Ooh woman, make it hot as cold
And I'm running

2, 3, 4, I'm going back
To find a place where I came from
And it's hidden deep in my heart
There is a way
Shows you all where we came from
And it's hidden deep in my heart
Oh well I can't wait a minute longer
My heart aint gettin' stronger
It didn't deep inside me, me
There is a way
Think I've found another day
And it's hidden deep in my heart
Yeah yeh whoo whoo do do etc. etc.
I can't wait a minute longer
My heart aint gettin' stronger
It's hidden deep inside me, deep inside me
Yeah-ee-yeah
Oh I'm goin' back
I'm goin' back
Find a place where I came from
And I'm headin' here in my heart

Just like a river, well I keep rolling along
Just like a singer, well I keep singing a song
And like a hobo, well I just ramble my way
Across a night time, behind the milky way
So if you see a sign of a rocking man
Look at what your doin'
I keep a flying, until I see light of day
And they are standing, until the band starts to play
And where were rolling, well I see, know what you mean
I know the feeling, well it is kind of a dream
Oh and if you see a sign of a rocking man
Look at what your doin'
Oh oh yeah
Just like a hammer, well I just hammer a song
It's like a boulder, and I just tumble along
I never worry about the things that I plan
I'm not a preacher, I'm just a rocking man
Oh if you see a sign of a rocking man

Take the water from my brain
And make me feel at home
Not to feel alone
And every time I look behind
I keep on thinking black
There ain't no looking back
Riding my nightmare
Riding my nightmare
Riding my nightmare
And it won't be long
You will find me there
Hold the water from the well
And wipe my sweat away
You know it hard at bay
Ease your mind with better choice
And then in time to come
Think I'm me as one
Riding my nightmare
Riding my nightmare
Riding my nightmare
And it won't be long

There must be a way up the ladder
'Cause I've got to move to the top
I'm seeking the power and the glory
But nobody knows when to stop
They call him the reaper of the glory
When you're searching for somewhere to go
The gun is the key, and it always will be
A powerful friend or a foe
Got no time, my life's mine
Ain't no friend to me
I don't care, I won't wear
My heart on my sleeve
Rain or shine, I don't mind
You don't impress me
I can say, in my way
I don't want to be...
Reaper of the glory, same old story
To be reaper of the glory, same, same story
The injured are lying in the roadside
Who dares means that someone will lose
You fallen like a rock in a landslide
You're hurting yourself it's no use
Call him the reaper of the glory
Searching can make you so cruel
The reaper goes on, as he steps on their bones

You say my hair is much too long
And you are right and I am wrong
I got a way of walking, I got a way of talking
You got a way of living
Don't try to make me live with you, oh you
You've got it in for me in blood
To get my hair cut here tonight
How can you love somebody
When they don't love nobody
It doesn't really matter,
It's coming in to trap me yeah
Oh yeah
I grow my mind inside my head
I grow my hair to keep it fed
I got a way of talking
I got a way of talking
Somebody try to save me,
Gotta believe me baby please
Oh please
I'm gonna live a lot of life
With golden locks around my eyes
How can you love somebody
When they don't love nobody
It doesn't really matter,
It's coming in to trap me yeah
Oh yeah
Said lover
You wanna cut my hair
You wanna cut my hair

Oh hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh, well I ain't got nothing
I got nothing to say
To the right man
I don't mean nothing
I got nothing to feel
For the right man
I ain't got nothing
You been running away
From your one
Who do you want for your love
I got nothing
Take my time
I'm a wild one
And if I'd ever tried to lover instead
Lord, I'm like a son
Yeah, I don't know whose to blame
The same way as he
Who do you want for
I ain't messin' 'round your head
Don't you ever turn your back on a friend
So ye come girl to my bed
Armed and ready, come to bed, bed
Well I've been getting bad vibes
Living in the smoke
Try and tell a good friend
But it sounds a joke
Giving up the good things
Changing all my ways
It is going bad girl
Now I will be saved
Yes, I wish I could be strong
Living with the good winds
That I waited long
Oooh now
Hear me calling out your name
Here's a lesson that you gave
Don't you do that, do it bad
Keep your cool girl
Pay your debt
Oh hear me moving
Hear me moving
Hear me moving
Hear me moving
Working fast

Young is a world where I often go
To live alone I will everflow
I can be big, somebody says I'm a man
'Til I met you and do you know what I am
People are strange everywhere I go
But you're not strange, I will let you know
I can be big, that is only to say
'Til I met you life is only a day
Only a day, only a day
People are strange everywhere I go
But you're not strange, I will let you know
I can be small but that is only to say
'Til I met you and life is only a day

I'll be your Apparatus,
Take me anywhere you go
Anyone won't lower my status
Your eyes will let me know
Oh, oh I need you so bad
Bad luck is all that I have
Baby if you let me be
Hey girl, so come on
I want to be yours, yeah
I will be your apparatus,
I'll take good care of you
You'll find it's me you can trust
All your senses too
I need you so bad
Bad luck is all that I have
Baby if you let me be
I will be your Apparatus,
I can be anything you say
I can paint you a brighter picture
I'll be there when you say
I need you so bad
Bad luck is all that I have

Light, missile coming, sun is dawning
Early warning, flash of a light in the sky
A long black cavern, Cheyenne Mountain
Minutes counting, warning to keep you alive
Fade out! One of the names for killing the masses
Fade out! It's your fault
Fade out! Extreme in demise, we can't take a chance
Fade out! It's your fault
Look at the world through the eyes of NORAD
Look at the world through the eyes of NORAD
Wait, before reason, now the season
Changes to the coldest of all in the fall
There, down below, that they were told to
Take a loaded gun to be held at the head
Fade out! You cannot be saved so blow up the world
Fade out like defcom
Fade out! We must be insane it's really a drill
Fade out like defcom
(A sycophant is not what you think
I feel helpless and practically double dictated)
Look at the world through the eyes of NORAD
Look at the world through the eyes of NORAD

Make me happy
Make me happy, and you do
Make me happy, and you do
Whoo whoo la de dahh etc. etc.
Feelin' empty, go to you
Time is lonely, oh yeah and you too

When you're living on your own
And things around you start to go
You're on your own, well baby you're on your own
When I see it in your smile
I can tell it ain't your style
You're on your own, well baby you're on your own
You're alone if you don't know it
And pretty soon it takes it's toll
Maybe I should ask you why
You need everything
But you ain't got it, 'cause you're living on your own
One day soon this will be gone
And the love of life it could be
But 'til then you'll look at me
Then you'll feel it grow
And you'll always know
You ain't got it living on your own
And when I see you look at me
And I can tell how it will be
You're on your own well baby you're on your own
I can tell the way you smile
And just you wait and in a while

Don't want to talk with you no more
Don't want to shut that door on you
Only want to stop what's causing this commotion
This ain't a case of pick and choose
It's more about if you win or lose
This is the way, it's not about my emotions
Love, Hope, Peace, Justice
I'm sick and tired of what I see
I've found another way to be
Cos everything I see is blighted, or it's rusted
I'll take a chance and turn away
I'm giving up on you today
Cos if I don't I know I will be busted

You got your feelings
Your old fashioned feelings
About the world and its ways
No retribution
No simple solution
I think we're caught in a maze
And all the plunder
That feeling down under
It tends to gnaw at you
We're in the grip it's a total Eclipse
The tyre fitter's got you
Now let me explain
This feeling of pain
Comes from the man at the top.
His grip is so tight
His political might
The tyre fitter will not stop
He's bleeding your brain
He'll drive you insane
Nobody making a move
He'll give you a pen
But he's got him a gun
The tyre man is oh so shrewd
I'm licking my wounds
And mending my bones
And catching the wind out of town
We're all in the grip of a tyre fitter's hand
It's only doing me harm
Running away
Just isn't the way
You got to get it yourself
Watch what we do
We just gotta make do

Living ain't easy it opens your head
Layin' and prayin' you wish you were dead
When I was born I was given a will
That the meaning of life is
I'm in for the kill
Loving knowing giving showing
Love is seeing and ever being
Motor cruising midnight boozing
Altar singing and bells that are ringing
You got a reason to listen to me
For I am a messenger carrying the key
Money is nothing to hold into wills
And the meaning of life is
I'm in for the kill
You see me moving around playing on people's minds
But I won't be for nobody I only have a way of return
Take me make me do what you want
You ain't gonna mock up me
Well I am the tolls and I am the right
And I am the earth and the sea
Hey there you with a lock that is boozed
Gonna say it with a face that's red
It's only the ones who can take the pain
Who can take that golden hat
I'm only trying to help you love in a world
That is hot and rough
It's me and you and a cat named boo

I can't see my feelings
Open my eyes
I can't see my feelings
Open a pair of eyes
I can't see my feelings
Keep them behind
I just keep on reeling
Running back down the line
I I I I I I I I
Oh oooh
A weight like a stone
Uuuuuuum um um um um, hey
Oh, I can't stand that screaming
Don't even try
Music fans some feelings
It'll be tell me why
Oh oh
Now now now
I can't stop that feeling
Showing me why
Man I love that feeling
Yeah, blowin' me right through the sky
Ah, Whew! Hey, hey, hey
Oh, oh
Oh hey hey hey hey hey hey
Oh, listen to what she says

Oh yeah
Going down to the town
I've gotta f-f-f-f-find where I've gone
Anyday, anyway
I've gotta d-d-d-d-do it alone
Gotta go and I know
That I will never, never leave her alone
She's a whore at her door
That I could never, never, never ignore
I don't know what you are,
Will you hold my hand
I don't know what you are,
Help me understand
You will understand
She's as hot as a docker's armpit
She's as hot as a docker's armpit

Homicidal suicidal
One time lover, all night raver
One time killer, two drug peddler
Homicidal suicidal
Homicidal suicidal
Big time loser, big time boozer
Live and learn, let it burn
All time sinner, you're a winner
Homicidal suicidal
Big time loser, big time boozer
Live and learn, let it burn
All time winner, you're a sinner
Ooh yeah!
Homicidal suicidal
One time killer, two drug peddlar
You killed a copper, you killed a copper
You done killed the copper,
You done killed the copper
You done killed the copper child, ooooh,
Homicidal suicidal

Keep the fire of life alight,
Give it all you can
Open up your hand, reach out
Your positive reactions fight
Your run of empty luck
Empty 'cause they've snuffed love out
Hold on to, hold on to love
Why don't you hold on to love?
Hold on to, hold on to love
Everyone hold on to love
There's a school of higher thought
That hears the frequency
A universal key, sing out
Although it's run is separate
Like islands in the stream
Tune in to the beat listen out
When you're disillusioned with
The path your life has run
There is only one remedy
What's the use in having
If you don't appreciate

Put your hands on your black guitar
Hit the chord for a rock and roll star
Our heads jumping up and down
Heavy rock bands are back in town
(You'll be coming too, and a hope you're alright)
Singing in the night, moving finds a solution
Shaking in the night, it's a heavy revolution
Now you been struck with an ice machine
And we do it till the peoples scream
You let loose when the lights go out
Let's move and sing and shout
(Come on I wanna hear you play that music baby, clap your hands)
They cried with a mighty roar
Ten million people or more
They stand like a mighty hand
Heavy music is in the land
So put your hands on your black guitar
Hit the chord for a rock and roll star
Our heads jumping up and down
Heavy rock bands are back in town

Hellbender what journey are we on?
Hellbender we journey on and on
Look at the man making a fast buck
Filling his pockets and bringing us bad luck
Breaking the rock is something we all do
Keep it on ice, magical voodoo you
Now where we gonna run?
Hellbender it's only just begun
Look at the world gathering armour
Losing a minute in every hour
Pity the soul coming to you
Keep it on ice, magical voodoo you
What journey are we on?
Hellbender where do we all belong?
Look at the man
Dirt in his pocket
Breaking the rock
Keep it on ice
Look at the world
Losing a minute
Pity the souls
Keep it on ice

Woman I can hear you woman in my soul
I wish I was your daddy I wish I was your mammy
Just lay down your hammer and tongs
Woman I can love you woman think you know
I wish I was you daddy I wish I was your mammy
Just lay down your hammer and tongs
Woman live like a song look around at
Who you see the tongs
Woman see the marks of life

You've got me living in sin
You've got me breaking my heart
You've got me out on a limb
And I am falling apart
The sun is burning my face
My insides running a race
I need somebody with soul
You are my life and my goal
I need your love, love
I want somebody who's good
I need somebody who's right
I need a lover who will
Not a lover who might
I wanna love you again
And then again and again
I'm gonna empty you out
I wanna be with you now
I want your love, love
Love, love me yes
Yeah you'd better love me
You'd better love me yes
Yeah love, you'd better love me
Love, love me yes
Yeah you'd better love me
Lord you've gotta help me
Love me yeah, you love me yes
Lord, you love me yeah
You've got me living in sin
You know what to do
You've got me out on a limb

Give me the truth, give me the truth
Righteous you are to follow the star
Give me the truth, give me the truth you do
Why don't we see oh the simplicity?
You might think that I'm falling down on my luck
But you were wrong 'cause you know
That what you get is the undiluted real, you feel
Give it a chance, love is like Lennon said
Love is the bread we'll be happy to spread
Give me the truth, it's tuned to it's proper sound
And this part I play is the music for me
You might think that I'm falling
Into the trap that tension has laid, but I say
What can I do when I know I feel this way, this way
Give me the truth, everyone criticize
Don't take offence, but pride is a brand of lies
Give me the truth, give me the truth

The two young children were old and bent
The older tried to look confident
Laying life ebbed away, nearly spent, no love
The darkness came and stopped the precious light
If they survive this eternal night
Without the sun and their maternal love
They might fade away
Flowers in the attic will not grow
Flowers in the attic no one knows
Flowers in the attic given some light
Maybe you will survive
The children cried like a baying hound
Cold, still and darkness was their surround
Although they wept, you could hear no sound
They fade.
They needed light to rejuvenate
To run away through an open gate
To halt the rise of a growing pain, away
By now the old world was laid to rest
So they invented self-happiness
With all the toys and the books
And the games they played
One lonely child in the night touched you
Depending on his mothers will

I touched a nerve and made you jump
I sounded so unkind
A wild effect might come and hide
Upon your troubled mind
I could have used a little tact
Instead of speaking out
Your temperament was much too quick and hot
Finger on the button,
You're ready to shoot me down
Waiting to set the world on fire
Finger on the button,
You're waiting to shoot me down
Some things I say
Are not meant to be taken that way
You took my words so literally
It made you look the fool
But obstinence should not incite
Such sweet revenge so cruel
But having taken orders
I will apologize
But don't you think it's time we really tried?
Hold it back
Hold it back

Don't need no drugstore woman
No I don't need no drugstore girl
I don't need no drugstore woman
Oh every every every way I go
Oh day or night well it's alright
Hey hey yeah, oh yeah
Said I don't need no pirate queen
Well I don't want it, do you know what I mean?
Well every way I look, and every way I go
Every day I see her in the window
'Cause I don't want, and I don't need
Hey hey yeah, oh yeah
Oh I don't need no drugstore woman
No I don't need no drugstore woman
Well I don't need what I don't see
Oh every every every way I go
Well day or night well it ain't right
Oh hey yeah, oh yeah
Like I say

Lay down, baby don't lay down and die
Hold on, don't lay down and die for no reason at all
So long, you've had it bad
One day soon, you'll laugh aloud
What you're being so sad
Is it really so bad?
Lay down, won't you show me a life
Shake it, blow it away or it cuts like a knife
Bad times they seem to be yours
Certain times only get through if you open the door
Listen to me, then you might see
You've got it wrong, hold out some more
Build a new hope, don't lay down and die
I said lay down, baby don't lay down and die
Save it, we're always alone so lift up your eyes
Stand on your own,
Be what you are do what is right
Life is your own,
Not for too long if you give up the fight

I can see that you don't give a damn
Your big sneer because of who I am
You've got me down with your master plan
I guess you're scared if I 'spill them beans'
You don't know what love means
You're more concerned about designer jeans
Unite tonight and say I'm right
Dead men don't talk
Unite tonight you know I'm right
Dead men don't talk
Tried the water with the tip of my toes
So sad had to blow my nose
Too hot, that's the way it goes
Don't worry about the knock on the door
Can't talk cos I'm on that floor
Ain't going to be a threat no more
Don't care if you crush my thumbs
Or use my head like a kettledrum
You're good ways are going to stay undone

If you change your ways, I can always tell
You can always come to me
If you change your ways, I can always tell
'Cause the feeling's so unreal
So little girl, I've been waiting
For you to reveal yourself
Your life's been hesitating
So come on make it tonight
If you change your ways, I can always tell
You can always come to me
If you need a friend, I am always there
You can call me and you'll see
If you change your ways, I just seem to know
I can feel it in the air
You can come around, when you're feeling down
If you need me I'll be there
So little girl, I've been waiting
For you to reveal yourself
Your life's been hesitating
So come on make it tonight
Make it tonight,
I can make you feel alright
If you change your ways, you can always come to me
If you change your ways,

Don't wanna leave my electric house
My lover got electric bills
I won't die in an electric chair
My power is everywhere
Power supply
I am an independent man
A love generator is what I am
And I give another million watts
This power supply is hot
Power supply
Power supply
A magnetic personality
Soaking the duality
My power supply will be
My love for eternity

When I was a little boy
They would say to me
Don't go in the world and play
It's bad company
All they had was child and faith
Let him grow and let him wait
Just to find out what it was to be free
But now I'm over twenty one
Growing up I've had my fun
And I know it's got to be
Baby lying in a womb
Are you free or in a tomb
Let me in,
I feel I want to cry.
Oh the road is long
Oh the road is long
Come on back, back.
Wash your hands and up to bed
Mind your manners
Or you're dead
Mind the cars cos you've got school on Monday
Put my trust in God
Who is he I know not what
Something mummy said one Sunday.
Maybe love is life but life is not
It's something I need plenty of.
Oh! I wish I'd died and never lived a day.
Now there's no one near me now
Tell me what to do and how
Take me back and sing my cares away.
Take me let me sing my cares away
Oh! the road is there
Oh that road is there
Come on back, back.
Oh! I'm empty now
Rainy pain has left me now.
Think of what my people used to say.
Black is black and white is white
Which to choose and which is right
Guide me to a place where I can stay.
Wrap me up and keep me warm
Hide myself far from the storm
Sleep and love will keep my mind at rest.
Only now I realise what my parents had to try.
Love you all and keep you all my life.
Oh that road is there
Oh the road is there

Oh lay me down girl, 'cause I'm going
Like a river, overflowing
I hear someone who is crying
I don't know 'cause I am dying
See my father tell my mother
Tell my sister tell my brother
Get me out girl and I'll feel better
Bring me round with whisky glitter
Now I lie here I have fallen
Hear the sound of music calling
Mirror mirror I am seeing
Half a man but not believing

There's a light
Covers up my doorway
Flickering light
Never run away
And I might, I might be going your way
Say you might
Might help me on my way
Umm what a sight
Sight to burn thee ego
Keep you warm
And never let go
And the light coming my way
Compare to what others have seen
But Napolean the strong
He once had it
As a sound that was loud in his dream
And I stand locked before the wave
Wind and snow, heaven and night
And you know
Where ever men like that stay
I can feel it burning in my eyes
And the light coming my way
Compare to what others have seen
But Napolean the strong
He once had it
As a sound that was loud in his dream
Heaven's sound it's driving me wild
If only I know that it's right
I got this message that makes me feel good
Carries me out through the night
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Well I go through life like a hurricane lamp
Riding the road as I go
Spreading this music
Injecting the light
Please let it stay, never go
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
I think I'm Napoleon
And others before
I rather seem to exist
Hey now follow it, follow it
Keep it in sight
Napolean would never have missed

I give my best to you, it always seems I do
But underneath it all, I'm feeling very, very small
Afraid I am you see, to tell you who with me
Because you might withdraw, before I am no more
Listen to me woman, listen to me woman
You claim that I am mean, telling you what I see
I have to face the truth, guess I'm the same as you
Don't wait outside my door,
When I am lying on the floor
Pretending I am strong, although I know it's wrong
My cover seems to be, a special part of me
Depending on the mood, I am my life I rule
Listen to me woman, listen to me woman
You claim that I am mean, telling you what I see
I have to face the truth, guess I'm the same as you
