I met my baby by the station
She said, "Can I help you with some information?" 'Cause your train gets out at a quarter-to-five But you could stay a while, you and I could get funky To the rhythm of the choo-choo-train Dancin' in the pourin' rain I found myself in the most beautiful situation A feeling I can't describe So I forget my destination And I pray, can you make a late cancellation? And as the train pulls out at a quarte-to-five With a knowing sigh, her and I, we get funky To the rhythm of the choo-choo-train Dancin' in the pourin' rain I found myself in the most beautiful situation A feeling I can't describe Oh how she gave me love, oh how she gave me love Oh how she gave me love, she gave me love. |

Where would we be without the sand and the sea?
Without a little help from the birds and the bees? My family tree depends on the future of a plea, I get down on my knees Now's our time to release and make peace with our conscience We wanna break through, and set a precedence; a new way of thinking Can you walk on by without your cold eyes blinkin'? Blind for the past we're goin' too fast never meant to last Live for the present, won't live to relent unless we prevent The destruction of our Mother Earth What is she worth to the birth of our future generation? Don't go blind Trust yourself to make your own decisions Judge the hype and make your own precisian Create a concept put it into context, like a moth craves the fire You crave for the lies to be exposed 'cause it's fear of the unknown The young to the old and as the lies unfold, you get the picture right See everything in a different light White may be black and black may be white So focus on the locus ' cause the conscious may be bogus and they mean to divert you But you know they can't hurt you the more they attack The more you hit them back, you have the power of luck Don't let them cover your tracks So get on get on the case, a quest to be fearless Not a trace on your face Don't go blind From the flesh to the soul From the cradle to the mo' Make it work make it grow Compton to Mariero Sold on the concept of peace and hope Oh, brother don't show your negativity It only ever leads to increased poverty Lay down the law no more war naive naive we all know the score And what's in store, "fight the power," what does it mean? Parental advisory stickers, keep it clean Fight for your right and bite to the bone, get up on your soap box Say it on a megaphone, sell your hopes and aspirations Feed me global information |

Like a bittersweet pill, the kind that gives you a thrill
And then it lets you down, keeps you hanging on She's playing with my mind, there ain't nothing left to find 'Cause my judgment and my senses have all but gone You can't tell me she ain't worth it all, 'cause she surely is She gives with every, every little breath of her beck and call She's chocolate in my pocket, she's gum in my hair She's the kind of girl that drives you crazy But I don't really care She's a superstar on my stage, she's the sunlight in my shades The sweetest scent that fills the air You will always find her there Like a cricket in a web, I never watched my step As I walked into her black widowed tentacled charm She's working on my senses, got me lowering my defenced There ain't nothing I can do to keep me safe from harm You can't tell me she ain't worth it all, 'cause she surely is I live for every, every little breath of her beck and call She's chocolate in my pocket... You can't tell me she ain't worth it all, 'cause she surely is She gives with every, every little breath of her beck and call She's chocolate in my pocket... |

Come on in from the rain now baby, come sail away with me
Who's been there to take care of you lately? So put your trust in me Don't cry those tears anymore, accentuate the positive You'll be fine 'cause I know for sure, eradicate the negative In the fear of the night put your spirit alive Take a ride... In my Limousine Room to breathe Velvet ease now baby, a mobile sanctury Summertime, summer breeze so hazy, only I can set you free No more pain in motel beds, you don't have to run No more shady shadows from the past, nothing left undone Let your soul come alive with the will to survive Take a ride... In my Limousine In the fear of the night put your spirit alive Take a ride... In my Limousine |

Madeleine was a pretty little girl, why she didn't even hit sixteen
All the boys in the neighbourhood took advantage of the little girl's dream Now they may try to hide it, but you just can't justify it They used her up and crushed her seeds of a flower that was never meant to be She needed love they gave her lies The promise of a paradise Now there's nothing left for Madeleine to sanctify Stuck in the middle can't solve the riddle on the outside Rockin' the cradle sure could be fatal on the outside Stuck in the middle can't solve the riddle on the outside Rockin' the cradle sure could be fatal on the outside Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah Such a shame, why she didn't last long, now who takes the blame for that All the noise in the neighbourhood, they say that Madeleine's getting fat They may try to fight it, but you just can't justify it They used her up and crushed her seeds of a flower that was never meant to be She gave the love she had, but then Nobody gave it back again Madeleine tried so hard to understand Stuck in the middle can't solve the riddle on the outside Rockin' the cradle sure could be fatal on the outside Stuck in the middle can't solve the riddle on the outside Rockin' the cradle sure could be fatal on the outside Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah What's the use of chasin' ghosts of men where responsibility comes cheap They came with no shame they came with seedy bar room seduction they seep But who weeps for Madeleine but for her own mother Mother Earth gave birth to mankind, mankind gave nothing in return Madeleine was a virgin clad, knew no better, Madeleine's been had Easy target, easy game, nobody's here to take the blame Nevertheless, hormones run wild She needed love they gave her lies The promise of a paradise Nothing left for Madeleine to sanctify |
