- Frollo -
What can I do
Never before have I been untrue
I've given my life
No family or friends no children no wife
I've asked no reward
Just the work of our Lord

Where can I go
With every breath I fear for my soul
God how I've tried
To keep these passions locked up inside
But now I confess
To these sins of the flesh

Esmerelda that gypsy that temptress has stolen my heart
Here in a world where it's hard to believe
A spell has been cast over me
Tell me what can I do
Ave Maria
Pray for me in my moment of need
Ave Maria
How I hope tonight that you'll send your guiding light to me

- Quasimodo -
Look at this face
All that I've known is fear and disgrace
I yearn for love
Mother of God look down from above
And give me the words that speak only to her

For all of my life
I've been consumed
By anger and spite
Could you not see
How the whole world reacted to me
I pity the child
Who has been so reviled
But the moment she touched me I swear that my soul came alive
And though I fear love never could be
For her and someone like me
I need to know

Ave Maria
Pray for all banished children of Eve
Ave Maria
How I hope tonight
That you'll send your guiding light to me

(Repeat chorus in duet)

I was lucky you know
I wasn't there
I didn't have to go and face my fear
But still this hidden pain
Comes up from the belly of the beast
And even ten years past
We're haunted now from both sides of the truth
And the ghosts of Dien Bien Phu

This war keeps hanging on
As if it were today
'Cause many a good men died
On the road from Tet to Hue
They won every battle they fought
But the one that raged at home
And now the only words that count
Are the names carved out in stone
As tears fall onto stone

Black Wall
Black Wall

Sound the bugle boy
For a twenty-one gun salute
Call for the ticker tape
And assemble all the troops
Not a word about dominoes
Or the horrors of napalm
Let Johnny come marching home
And greet him with a prayer and a psalm
For the boys of Vietnam
The boys of Vietnam
Let Johnny come back to the world

Back to the world
Back to the world

"Is this the train to Desert Moon?" was all she said
But I knew I'd heard that stranger's voice before
I turned to look into her eyes, but she moved away
She was standing in the rain
Trying hard to speak my name
They say first love never runs dry

The waiter poured our memories into tiny cups
We stumbled over words we longed to hear
We talked about the dreams we'd lost, or given up
When a whistle cut the night
And shook silence from our lives
As the last train rolled towards the dune

Those summer nights when we were young
We bragged of things we'd never done
We were dreamers, only dreamers
And in our haste to grow too soon
We left our innocence on Desert Moon
We were dreamers, only dreamers
On Desert Moon, on Desert Moon
On Desert Moon, Desert Moon

I still can hear the whisper of the summer night
It echoes in the corners of my heart
The night we stood and waited for the desert train
All the words we meant to say
All the chances swept away
Still remain on the road to the dune

Those summer nights when we were young
We bragged of things we'd never done
We were dreamers, only dreamers
Moments pass, and time moves on
But dreams remain for just as long
As there's dreamers, all the dreamers
On Desert Moon, on Desert Moon
On Desert Moon, Desert Moon

(spoken / time = 1:00)
In 1986, I became associated, involved with the uh, Viet Nam Veterans Parade committee, which, um, put together the largest Viet Nam veteran's parade in the history of America right here in this city.
applause
It happened really because I'd written a song called Black Wall, which is about the memorial. Are there, got any veterans here tonight? And um, my brother-in-law Chuck, who is a uh, Marine vet from Viet Nam, who's, was supposed to be here tonight, but uh, he became ill the last two or three weeks, he's been in a hospital so obviously we wish Chuck a very speedy recovery 'cause he's just, he's so pissed that he's not here. But this is for him and all the veterans of that war.
applause

Hey whatcha doin' tonight?
Have you heard that the world's gone crazy?
Young Americans listen when I say there's people puttin' us down
I know they're sayin' that we've gone lazy
To tell you the truth we've all seen better days

Don't need no fast buck lame duck profits for fun
Quick trick plans, take the money and run
We need long term, slow burn, getting it done
And some straight talking, hard working son of a gun.

So, whatcha doin' tonight, I got faith in our generation
Let's stick together and futurize our attitudes
I ain't lookin' to fight, but I know with determination
We can challenge the schemers who cheat all the rules

Come on and take pride, be wise, spottin' the fools
Big shots, crackpots bending the rules
A fair shot here for me and for you
Knowing that we can't lose

And we'll be rockin' in Paradise
Rockin' the Paradise tonight
Rockin' in Paradise
Rockin' the Paradise tonight
Tonight, tonight...

(guitar solo...'go sparky go'...guitar solo conitinues)

Come on and take pride, be wise, spottin' the fools
Big shots, crackpots bending the rules
A fair shot here for me and for you
Knowing that we can't lose

And we'll be rockin' in Paradise
Rockin' the Paradise tonight (you know we're Rockin' in Paradise)
Rockin' in Paradise (we're gonna rock you tonight)
Rockin' the Paradise tonight (everybody's gonna...)
Rockin' in Paradise (...rock, rock, rock ya, rock ya, rock ya, rock ya...)
Rockin' the Paradise tonight (...rock ya, rock ya, rock ya, rock in Paradise...)
Rockin' in Paradise (...everybody...)
Rockin' the Paradise tonight (...come on, come on...)

- Quasimodo -
Since Heaven sent you here to me
I have only loved you silently
So afraid to show you how I feel
Can this love be real

And after all that I've been through
Understand that I would die for you
No chains no shackles could restrain my heart
We would never part

(Chorus)
With every heartbeat I'll dream of you
With every breath every sigh
Hoping someday you'll look at me
And see the man inside
With every heartbeat I'll wait for you
Anticipating the time
We'll be together hand to heart
And true love will then be mine
Be mine

- Esmerelda -
If you could only understand
The pain I feel when I see any man
Who's been condemned to live a world apart
Not for who but what they are

And on the night you came to me
Risked your life for the whole world to see
How could I dare begin to let you know
How I loved you so

With every heartbeat I'll dream of you
With every breath every sigh
Hoping someday you'll look at me
And see the girl inside
With every heartbeat I'll wait for you
Anticipating the time
We'll be together hand to heart
And true love will then be mine
Be mine

(Repeat chorus in duet)

You've seen my hands are steady
You've seen my face before
Soon you can take your last look
And they'll close the door
I stand accused before you
I have no tears to cry
And you will never break me
Until the day I die

A criminal mind was all I
All I've ever known
They've tried to reform me
But I'm made of cold stone

My criminal mind is all I
All I've ever had
Ask one who's known me
If I'm really so bad...
I am

I've spent my life behind these steel bars
I've paid my debt in time
But being brought to justice
That was my only crime
I don't regret a single action
I'd do the same again
These prison walls secure me
And I'm numb to pain

A criminal mind is all I
All I've ever known
They've tried to reform me
But I'm made of cold stone

My criminal mind is all I
All I've ever had
Ask one who's known me
If I'm really so bad...
I am

Before you hand me over
Before you read my sentence
I'd like to say a few words
Here in my own defense
Some people struggle daily
They struggle with their conscience 'til the end
I have no guilt to haunt me
I feel no wrong intent

A criminal mind is all I
All I've ever known
Don't try to reform me
Cause I'm made of cold stone

My criminal mind is all I
All I've ever had
Ask one who's known me
If I'm really so bad...
I am

Oh I am
Oh I am
I'm made of cold stone
Made of cold stone
I'm just like these prison walls
A criminal mind

Blue Collar Man
by Styx

Give me a job give me security
Give me a chance to survive
I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line
My God I'm hardly alive
My mother 'n father, my wife and my friends
You've seen them laugh in my face
But I've got the power and I've got the will
I'm not a charity case

I'll take those long nights, impossible odds
Keeping my eye on the keyhole
If it takes all that to be just what I am
Well I'm gonna be a blue collar man

Make me an offer that I can't refuse
Make me respectable man
This is my last time in the unemployment line
So like it or not

I'll take those long night, impossible odds
Keeping my back to the wall
If it takes all night to be just who I am
Well I'm gonna be a blue collar man

Keeping my mind on a better life
Where happiness is only a heartbeat away
Paradise can it be all I heard it was
I close my eyes and maybe I'm already there
(repeat chorus)

Take me back to my boat on the river
I need to go down, need to come down
Take me back to my boat on the river
And I won′t cry out any more
Time stands still as I gaze in her waters
She eases me down, touching me gently
With the waters that flow past my boat on the river
So I don′t cry out anymore

Oh the river is wide
river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
all roads lead to Tranquillity Base
Where the frown on my face disappears
Take me down to my boat on the river
And I won′t cry out anymore

Oh the river is deep
river it touches my life like the waves on the sand
all roads lead to Tranquillity Base
Where the frown on my face disappears
Take me down to my boat on the river
I need to go down, with you let me go down
Take me back to my boat on the river
And I won′t cry out anymore
I won′t cry out anymore
I won′t cry out anymore

Crystal Ball

"Crystal Ball"
by Styx
from Crystal Ball
(c) 1976 A & M

I used to like to walk the straight and narrow line.
I used to think everything was fine.
Sometimes I'd sit and gaze for days through sleepless dreams,

All alone and trapped in time.
All alone and trapped in time.

I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me?
Or am I even in it's mind at all?
Perhaps I'll get a chance to look ahead and see.

Soon as I find myself a crystal ball.
Soon as I find myself a crystal ball.

But tell me, tell me where I'm going,
I don't know where I've been,
Tell me, tell me, wont you tell me
And then tell me again.

My heart is breaking,
My body's aching,
And I don't know where to go.
So tell me, tell me, wont you tell me
I just gotta know.


Crystal Ball

There's so many things I need to know

Crystal Ball

There's so many things I've gotta know

Crystal Ball

Wont you tell me please before I go.

Crystal Ball

There's a crack in the universe
People say that it's getting worse
And there's no place that's safe to hide
Better hope we can hitch a ride

There's a sign in the road ahead
Turn back or you'll end up dead
Hey but I don't believe it's true
'Cause it's the road leading back to you

Kiss my skin, I won't bleed
Close me in, I'll go to seed
Make me ask and I won't need
Everything, all the time

There's a face in a photograph
Tryin' hard to suppress a laugh
Crying out to be torn in half
Should I ask for an autograph?

Kiss my skin, I won't bleed
Close me in, I'll go to seed
Make me ask and I won't need
Everything, all the time
Everything, all the time

Feed my hunger
Ease my pain
Feed my hunger won't you, oh nah nah nah
Won't you ease my pain, whoa nah nah nah nah

Kiss my skin, I won't bleed
Close me in, I'll go to seed
Make me ask and I won't need
Everything, all the time

Everything, all the time

Everything, all the time
All the time
All the time
All the time

Fooling Yourself
by Styx

You see the world thru your cynical eyes
You're a troubled young man I can see
You've got it all in the palm of your hand
But your hand's wet with a sweat
And you head needs a rest

And you're fooling yourself
If you don't believe it
You're kidding yourself
If you don't believe it

Why must you be such an angry young man
When your future looks quite bright to me
And how can there be such a sinister plan
That could hide such a lamb
Such a caring young man

And you're fooling yourself
If you don't believe it
You're killing yourself
If you don't believe it

Get up, get up, get back on your feet
You're the one they can't beat
And you know it
Come on, come on let's see what you've got
Just take your best shot and don't blow it, oh

I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together.
See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly.
I'm crying.

Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come.
Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody tuesday.
Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob.

Mister city policeman sitting
Pretty little policemen in a row.
See how they fly like lucy in the sky, see how they run.
I'm crying, I'm crying.
I'm crying, I'm crying.

Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog's eye.
Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess,
Boy, you been a naughty girl you let your knickers down.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob.

Sitting in an english garden waiting for the sun.
If the sun don't come, you get a tan
From standing in the english rain.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob.

Expert textpert choking smokers,
Don't you thing the joker laughs at you?
See how they smile like pigs in a sty,
See how they snied.
I'm crying.

Semolina pilchard, climbing up the eiffel tower.
Elementary penguin singing hari krishna.
Man, you should have seen them kicking edgar allan poe.
I am the eggman, they are the eggmen.
I am the walrus, goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob.
Goo goo g'joob g'goo goo g'joob g'goo.

Did you make your bed?
Did you lose your head?
Are you still awake
From the things you said?

You close your eyes
But the sleep won't come
'Cause you can't escape
What's said and done

Did you draw the line
In the sand again
Did you make a stand
Out on a limb

Don't be so hard on yourself
'Cause you can't change the world
You can't change the world alone
Just be

You drink too much
'Cause you think too much
It seems so hard to feel

All that is real

You numb your heart
So you feel no pain'
Then you miss the bliss
Of the pouring rain.

But there's a brand new day
It's a shame to waste
It's yours to live
It's yours to taste

Don't be so hard on yourself
'Cause you can't change the world
You can't change the world alone
Just be

Don't be so hard on yourself
'Cause you can't change the world
You can't change the world alone
Just be

You were the apple of the public′s eye as you cut the ribbon at the local mall
A mirage for both you and us. How can this be real?
We love your body in that photograph, your home state sure must be proud
The queen of the United States, or have you lost your crown

Well aren′t you Miss America
Don′t you Miss America
Won′t you Miss America
Our love

Well are you really who we think you are
Or does your smile seem to wear you down
Is the girl who you once were screaming to jump out
And the dream that you must live - a disease for which there is no cure
This roller coaster ride you′re on won′t stop to let you off

Well aren′t you Miss America
Don′t you Miss America
Won′t you Miss America
Our love

Miss America, Miss America, Miss America
Miss America, Miss America, Miss America

Well aren′t you Miss America
Don′t you Miss America
Won′t you Miss America
Our love

Well it′s true just take a look - The cover sometimes makes the book
And the judges, do they ever ask to read between your lines
In your cage at the human zoo, they all stop to look at you
Next year, what will you do when you have been forgotten

Well aren′t you Miss America
Don′t you Miss America
Won′t you Miss America
Our love

Hold on tightly to your innocence
And don't you let go
Until you know it's gonna be your way

Through the tangle and the bramble
There's a thread that runs through
And it's true
There's no need to be afraid

Smiling ear to ear
It's something in the atmosphere
Every star above reflecting in your sea of love
Is it just a dream
Or are things as they really seem
Somebody help me make the call

You could be the light
That shines so bright
You show the way to go
And if it's so
Don't be too surprised

Just give yourself a chance
And take a glance
Around to see the glow
Burning in my eyes

Smiling ear to ear
It's something in the atmosphere
Every star above reflecting in your sea of love
This is not a dream
It's just the way it's always been
You've got to rise above it all

(CHORUS I)
Somewhere down the road that we follow
We'll be one with everything
I know as soon as tomorrow
We could be arriving

(First Keyboard Solo)

(CHORUS II)
Somewhere down the road that we follow
We'll be one with everything
I know as soon as tomorrow
We could be arriving
And in my dreams I'm there by your side
Learning to fly again...

The world we see,
(----world we see and hear)
Is a mystery,
(----mystery but we)
But we hold the key,
(-------hold the key to the door)
If we have the faith to live,
(-----have the faith...)
And believe...
(...anymore)

(Keyboard Solo II)

Renegade

Song: Renegade
LP: Pieces of Eight
Artist: Styx

Oh mamma I'm in fear for my life
From the long arm of the law
Lawman has put an end to my running
And I'm so far from my home
Oh mamma I can hear you a' crying
you're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the
gallows and I don't have very long

The jig is up the news is out
They've finaly found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
This will be the end today
Of the wanted man

Oh mamma I've been years on the lam
And had a high price on my head
Lawman says get him dead or alive
Now it's for sure he'll see me dead
Dear mamma I can hear you are a' crying
You're so scared and all alone
Hangman is coming down from the gallows
and I don't have very long

The jig is up the news is out
They've finaly found me
The renegade who had it made
Retrieved for a bounty
Never more to go astray
The judge will be have revenge today
On the wanted man

Too Much Time On My Hands
by Styx

Yeah, here I am sitting on this bar stool,
talking like a damn fool
Got the twelve o'clock news blues
And I've given up hope for the
afternoon soaps
And a bottle of cold brew
Is it any wonder I'm not crazy
Is it any wonder I'm sane at all

Well I'm so tired of losing
I've got nothing to do and all day
to do it
Well I'd go out cruising, but I've no place
to go and all night to get there
Is it any wonder I'm not a criminal
Is it any wonder I'm not in jail

Is it any wonder I've got too much
time on my hands
It's ticking away with my sanity
I've got too much time on my hands
It's hard to believe such a calamity
I've got too much time on my hands
and it's ticking away, ticking away
from me
(Too much time on my hands)
It's tick tick tick tick ticking away
(Too much time on my hands)
And I don't know what to do with myself
(Too much time on my hands)

(Too much time on my hands)
(Too much time on my hands)
(Too much time on my hands)

Now I'm a jet fuel genius
I can solve the world's problems
without even trying
I've got dozens of friends, and the fun
never ends
That is as long as I'm buying
Is it any wonder I'm not the President
Is it any wonder I'm null and void

Is it any wonder I've got too much
time on my hands
It's ticking away with my sanity
I've got too much time on my hands
It's hard to believe such a calamity
I've got too much time on my hands
and it's ticking away, ticking away
from me
(Too much time on my hands)
Ticky tick tick tick tick ticking away
(Too much time on my hands)
And I don't know what to do with myself
(Too much time on my hands)
Umm mmm...
(Too much time on my hands)
Tick tick tick ticking away
(Too much time on my hands)
Umm mmm...
(Too much time on my hands)
Too much time on my hands
Too much time on my

We're looking for action ? Cruising and acting so cool
Rocking and rolling ? Trying to find somebody who
Will go for a ride, and maybe tonight we'll get lucky

Summer vacation ? That's when we party the best
Busting the curfew ? We won't be happy unless
We drink way too much, and we need a crutch just to stand up

Boys will be boys ? Boys will be boys
Hell, I don't wanna grow up and be a man
I wanna stay as young just as long as I can
Boys will be boys ? Boys will be boys
Hiding my Playboys under my bed
Centerfold dreams dancing in my head
Well, they're dancing in my head

Summer is here, believe it or not
Back to the beach, where everything's hot
Let's turn the radio up, and dance to the beat
Right out in the streets
Let down your hair, 'cause summer is here
Yeah! Summer is here

Looking for action ? We're gonna break all the rules
They know it's harmless ? So who are they trying to fool
When they act so outraged, and they shout "Act your age"
Well, it's all right

Boys will be boys ? Boys will be boys
I don't wanna grow up and be a man
I wanna stay as young just as long as I can
Boys will be boys ? Boys will be boys
All we wanna do is to have some fun
Rock & rock - roll in the summer sun
Well, we're rocking with the girls tonight

Summer is here, believe it or not
Back to the beach, where everything's hot
Let's turn the radio up, and dance to the beat
Right out in the streets
Let down your hair, 'cause summer is here
Yeah! Summer is here

Summer is here, believe it or not
Back to the beach, where everything's hot
Let's turn the radio up, and dance to the beat
Right out in the streets
Let down your hair, 'cause summer is here
Yeah! Summer is here

"Is this the train to Desert Moon?" was all she said
But I knew I'd heard that stranger's voice before
I turned to look into her eyes, but she moved away
She was standing in the rain
Trying hard to speak my name
They say first love never runs dry

The waiter poured our memories into tiny cups
We stumbled over words we longed to hear
We talked about the dreams we'd lost, or given up
When a whistle cut the night
And shook silence from our lives
As the last train rolled towards the dune

Those summer nights when we were young
We bragged of things we'd never done
We were dreamers, only dreamers
And in our haste to grow too soon
We left our innocence on Desert Moon
We were dreamers, only dreamers
On Desert Moon, on Desert Moon
On Desert Moon, Desert Moon

I still can hear the whisper of the summer night
It echoes in the corners of my heart
The night we stood and waited for the desert train
All the words we meant to say
All the chances swept away
Still remain on the road to the dune

Those summer nights when we were young
We bragged of things we'd never done
We were dreamers, only dreamers
Moments pass, and time moves on
But dreams remain for just as long
As there's dreamers, all the dreamers
On Desert Moon, on Desert Moon
On Desert Moon, Desert Moon

I've got my dreams
I know you think that's crazy
But I won't give up
'Cause I've got this burning desire in me
Oh baby it's me

While the world sleeps
I sit up all night thinking
And making my plans
'Cause there's something special ahead for me
Something ahead for me

So don't you tell me that I'm wasting my time, ruining my life
And that the odds against me are a million-to-one, don't be concerned
I'll take the heat for all the chances I'm gonna take
Mistakes that I'll make
Wait and see
You're gonna hear from me

So don't wait for heroes, do it yourself
You've got the power
Winners are losers
Who got up and gave it just one more try
One more try… One more try

If you're waiting for that miracle train to call out your name
And if you think the rainbow always finds someone else, never yourself
Just look inside and find that spark that's burning in you
Follow it through
The light you find
Well, it could change your life

So don't wait for heroes
Think for yourself
Make your own choices
You know it's easy
To follow the crowd
But my advice is
Don't wait for heroes
Believe in yourself
You've got the power
Winners are losers
Who got up and gave it just one more try

You don't care for me
I don't care about that
You got a new fool
I like it like that
I have only one burning desire
Let me stand next to your fire
(repeat 3X)

You say your Mama ain't home
Well, that ain't my concern
Just play with me
And you won't get burned
I have only one itching desire
Let me stand next to your fire
(repeat 3X)

Let me stand ? Let me stand
Let me stand ? Let me stand

(Now listen here, baby)
You wanna give me your money?
You better save it, babe
Well, save it for your rainy day
I have only one burning desire
Let me stand next to your fire
(repeat 4X)

Let me stand ? Let me stand
Let me stand ? Let me stand

Gravity keeps pulling me down
(repeat 7X)

I want to go to Houston, I want to fly to the stars
But I may not have the "Right Stuff" to make the trip to Mars
'Cause it's so hard for me to get my weight off the ground
Yes, it's that Gravity ? It keeps pulling me down

I want to climb Mount Everest, and find my Shangri-La
Learn the secrets of the Universe from the Wise Man in Nepal
But it's so hard for me ? That mountain's so steep
I know my nose will bleed, 'cause Gravity don't sleep
It don't sleep…

I'm floating… I'm floating… above the crowd
No tensions… no pressures… I touch the clouds
I'm flying… I'm flying… in ecstasy
My problems can't find me… Zero Gravity

Gravity keeps pulling me down
That Gravity keeps pulling me down

I want to be a driver at the Monaco Grand Prix
Have the fastest car in Europe, and meet the Royal Family
But it's so dangerous ? It's not the speed that I fear
It's just so difficult to get my motor in gear

I want to be a Millionaire, and own a baseball team
Have a private jet for shopping trips, and a chauffeured limousine
And pay no income tax, and be healthy and sound
But it's my Gravity ? It keeps holding me down

I saw you standing by the juke-box Saturday night
You had a couple of drinks and your best friend's advice
Two wrongs made us fight
I've honestly had my fill of rumors and lies
If my words aren't enough for you, then look in my eyes
'Cause baby, if you trust me let it show
Don't be so insecure about my love
It's hard for me to show emotion
But don't be fooled, my heart is open
And you're the only one I really need

Please ? I've run out of words to say to you
Ma-ma-ma Please ? I've done everything you've asked me to
Ma-ma-ma Please ? Oh Please
I've tried to live up to your expectations
Please ? Oh Please
So let's give our love one more chance

I saw your face in the crowd last Saturday night
You were acting as if I didn't exist
Blinded by your own light
I don't ask that much from you, so why can't you see
I need to feel that I'm special to you
Your love's what I need
So baby, if you love me let it show
Don't be so insincere about our love
It's hard for me to hide my feelings
My secret fear is that you'll leave me
So if you love me, don't pretend to go

Please ? I've run out of words to say to you
Ma-ma-ma Please ? I've done everything you've asked me to
Ma-ma-ma Please ? Oh Please
I've tried to live up to your expectations
Please ? Oh Please
So let's give our love one more chance

Baby if you love me let it show
(If you trust me baby, then I'll try to change)
Don't be so insincere about our love
(I'll do anything just to ease the pain)
It's hard for me to hide my feelings
(You know I love you)
My secret fear is that you'll leave me
(You know I love you)
So if you love me, Baby please don't go

Please ? I've run out of words to say to you
Ma-ma-ma Please ? I've done everything you've asked me to
Ma-ma-ma Please ? Oh Please
I've tried to live up to your expectations
Please ? Oh Please
I know if we try, that we're gonna make it
Please ? Oh Please
So let's compromise ? some giving, some taking
Please ? Oh Please
So let's give our love one more chance

Babe, there's something suspicious
I can sense there's a change in you
You give me your loving, kissing
Say everything's all right
I know something ain't cool
'Cause when I say goodnight to you
You're a half-a-million miles away
And I want to know
Will you still be here tomorrow?

Babe, I'm getting your message
There's been clues lying everywhere
You put on your perfume, make-up
You're dressing so fine
Just to go to the store
So if you found somebody who
Can give you loving more than I
Please tell me tonight--Baby, baby

Suspicious thoughts keep creeping into my mind
I chase them out but there's no way to disguise
I look in your eyes for the slightest affection
But all I get is your cool, cool rejection
Why can't I admit to the writing on the wall
Wait a minute, Baby
Can't you see I'm headed for a fall
I'm headed for a fall

Suspicious thoughts keep creeping into my mind
I chase them out but there's no way to disguise
I call you at work when lunchtime is over
You're always late and you're hardly ever sober
What I suspect, it makes me feel small
Take it easy, Baby
Can't you see I'm headed for a fall
I'm headed for a fall

I am the thief of the highway
Rich man you better take hold
′Cause last night while you lie sleeping
I came to steal all your gold

All the King′s horses
All the King′s men
Surrounded the chapel
To trap me within

A Lady in waiting
Lips red with rouge
She offered me pleasures
I could not refuse
No, no, no

For I was born
Born for adventure
Women whisky and sin
No I′ll never surrender
Live by the sword till the end

All the King′s horses
All the King′s men
Were drinking and dancing
At Fezewig′s Inn

They spoke of my capture
And of my escape
They called it misfortune
But I called it fate
No, no, no

For I was born
Born for adventure
Women whisky and sin
No I′ll never surrender
Live by the sword till the end

I used to like to walk the straight and narrow line.
I used to think everything was fine.
Sometimes I'd sit and gaze for days through sleepless dreams,

All alone and trapped in time.
All alone and trapped in time.

I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me?
Or am I even in it's mind at all?
Perhaps I'll get a chance to look ahead and see.

Soon as I find myself a crystal ball.
Soon as I find myself a crystal ball.

But tell me, tell me where I'm going,
I don't know where I've been,
Tell me, tell me, wont you tell me
And then tell me again.

My heart is breaking,
My body's aching,
And I don't know where to go.
So tell me, tell me, wont you tell me
I just gotta know.

There's so many things I need to know

When I think of Lorelei my head turns all around
As gentle as a butterfly she moves without a sound
I call her on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight′s the night she′s moving in and I can hardly wait

The way she moves, ooh-ooh
I gotta say
Lorelei let′s live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let′s live together
Brighter than the stars forever

Her eyes become of Paradise, she softly speaks my name
She brightens every lonely night, no one′s quite the same
She calls me on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight′s the night she′s moving in, it′s time to celebrate

The way she moves, ooh-ooh
I gotta say
Lorelei let′s live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let′s live together
Brighter than the stars forever

Tell me where are you going
Sweet mademoiselle
To London or Paris
To the Grand Hotel

Where do you go at the end of the day
Where do you go, when you spend time away
To islands in the tropic sands
Or pleasure trips to distant lands
You′re searching for a dream
Well maybe it′s me.

I tell you hello
And what do you say
As I stop you go
There′s no reason to stay

It all began so harmlessly
You gave me love so easily
I never realized you were just spending time

Tell me where are you going
Sweet mademoiselle
To London or Paris
To the Grand Hotel

Even though you′re far away
I think about you every day
And wonder if you′re thinking of me
In a fond memory
Sweet mademoiselle

Tell me where are you going
Sweet mademoiselle
To London or Paris
Ou Montreal
Sweet Mademoiselle

Gonna get you while you sleep
Give you a dream you can keep
To yourself little mama gonna make you feel better

I'm your mystery man in a gold Lincoln
Ain't no reason to do any second thinkin'
About it child

Midnight ride I'm gonna shake ya
Midnight ride I'm gonna break ya
Midnight ride I'm gonna take you on a
Midnight ride

Meet you little girl back at my hotel
Between you and me we're really gonna give 'em hell

I got something mighty special up my sleeve
All you got to do is just say please

Midnight ride I'm gonna shake ya
Midnight ride I'm gonna break ya
Midnight ride I'm gonna take you on a
Midnight ride

Lonely feelings in the city
One room flat with crumbling walls
Sirens play a distant melody
Neon shadows paint the halls

In the thirteen months I've spent here
With my manuscript and rhymes
I've paid in cash for foolish pleasures
Mother dear you'd call them crimes

(Chorus)
Raise the roof
Light the lite
Mother dear I'm returning tonight
Now I see your concern
Mother dear how you taught me to learn

I've been a roamin' for survival
Showing two sides of my face
I need the comfort of your wisdom
I'm coming home to your embrace

If by chance I pass before you
Don't discount my gratitude
You're responsible for me here
And of course my attitude

Chorus

Stayin' up half the night
Wonderin' if what I'm doin' is right
Raise the roof
Light the lite
Mother dear I'm returning tonight

Put me on I'm your brand new record album
Side one, cut one listen to the songs
Play me loud don't you worry 'bout your nieghbors
Hope I make you feel good all day long
All day long
Put me on and play me loud
I'm the madman screaming in your living roo

Well it's Friday nite and the streets
are full of the weekends with their green
Soldier boys looking left and right
at all the sights there to be seen
Well you can be there's a loaner
who'd love to see you be so sweet
That's why I'm telling you to get on
your shooz and get out there on the street
And get your rockin'
Rock n'Roll Shooz
Up and down around they go with
their heads turning all around
Way down there on the corner
there's a Cadillac that's easy to be found
Way down there in Chicago, down
along Division street
The boys are just looking for a girl
like you to make their stay in town a treat
So get your rockin'
Rock n'Roll Shooz
They all love it baby, they keep
comin' back for more
Rock n'Roll Shooz

Time after time I sit and I wait for your call
I know I′m a fool but what can I say.
Whatever the price I′ll pay for you, Madame Blue
Once long ago, a word from your lips and the world turned around.
But somehow you′ve changed, you′re so far away
I long for the past and dream of the days with you, Madame Blue.


Suite Madame Blue, gaze in your looking glass
You′re not a child anymore.
Suite Madame Blue, the future is all but past.
Dressed in your jewels, you made your own rules
You conquered the world and more ....heaven′s door

(Instrumental)

America....America...America...America...
America....America...America...America...
America....America...America...America...
America....America...America...America...
America....America...America...America...
America....America...America...America...


Red white, and blue, gaze in your looking glass
You′re not a child anymore.
Red, white, and blue, the future is all but past.
So lift up your heart, and make a new start
And lead us away from here.

This Old Man
He worked for thirty years with
Two strong hands, in the factory light his
Lunch box held all his needs with
Coffee sandwiches and dreams
For Me

This Old Man
He taught me many times
To undertand, that showing love is simply
Nothing you should have o hide
Don′t keep your feelings locked inside
He said

When I was young
I dreamed a young man′s dreams
I saw in you reyes
The things I′d never seen
But now I grow old
But I don′t really mind
Cause can′t you see with my family
We′ll share these timeless memories

Give me a job, give me security
Give me a chance to survive
I'm just a poor soul in the unemployment line
My God, I'm hardly alive
My mother and father, my wife and my friends
I see them laugh in my face
But I've got the power, and I've got the will
I'm

Once in a dream
Far beyond these castle walls
Down by the bay where the
Moonlit water falls
I stood alone while the minstrel sang his song
So afraid I'd lost my soul
There in the fog his song kept calling me
Leading me on with its haunting melody
Deep in my heart a voice kept echoing
I knew I'd soon be wandering
Far beyond these castle walls
Where the distant harbour meets the sky
There the battle raged like hell
And every dove had lost its will to fly
Far beyond these castle walls
Where I thought I heard Tiresias say
Life is never what it seems
And every man must meet his destiny

(Dennis DeYoung)

It seems you finally had to choose
I guess there was no other way
Between my love and satin shoes
I knew the words you'd have to say

It all began so long ago
That the memory's hardly clear
But when I seen you dance I know
Half your love I'll always share

Ballerina when you dance there's music
Colored lights illuminate your movement
Crowded halls anticipate your gentle smile

Ballerina from the first I knew that
You would always have to dance I knew that
There would surely come a day when you would go
Baby I know...

Dance for me, I beg of you, dance for me
Dance for me, ballerina, dance for me

Ballerina when you dance there's music
Colored lights illuminate your movement
Crowded halls anticipate your gentle smile

I'm sailing away set an open
course for the virgin sea
I've got to be free free to
face the life that's ahead of me
On board I'm the captain so climb
aboard We'll search for tomorrow
on every shore And I'll try
oh Lord I'll try to carry on

I look to the sea reflections
in the waves spark my memory
Some happy some sad
I think of child hood friends
and the dreams we had
We live happily forever so
the story goes But somehow we
missed out on that pot of gold
But we'll try best that
we can to carry on

A gathering of angels
appeared above my head
They sang to me this song of
hope and this is what they said
They said come sail away come sail
away Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me

I thought that they were angels
but to my surprise
They climbed aboard their
starship and headed for the skies
Singing come sail away come sail
away Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me
Come sail away come sail away
Come sail away with me

You see the world through your cynical eyes
You're a troubled young man I can tell
You got it all in the palm of your hand
But your hand's wet with sweat
And your head needs a rest
You're fooling yourself
If you don't believe it
You're killing yourself
I

When I ws a young man, I had to kick and scratch and claw
Now it's like top gun in the Old West, everybody wants me to draw
If I had known it would be likethis I might have given it a second thought
But if someone had told me to give it up, it's a line that I wouldn't have
bought
Look at me
I'm the great white hope
Can't you see
I'm up against the ropes
Don't you know
It's so hard to cope
When you feel
Like the great white hope
Now you've paid your money you're sitting in your ringside seat
And I know that some of you out there, might wanna see the champ get beat
If I had known it would be like this I might have given it a second
thought
But real life sure isn't like school, there's some lessons that just
can't be taught

Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey, Eight, Skate, Seven on the Rotate!

If I could stand
Beside myself
Would I see me or maybe someone else
'Cause it's hard to please
Most everyone
When your spirit's got you on the run, on the run

They say do your best
But don't cause a fuss
Don't make waves be like the rest of us
But I can feel the tide is turning fast
'Cause deep inside I know that I can't last
Another day
Not another day!

'Cause I'm O.K.
I finally found the person I've been searching for
I'm alright
I'm feeling good about myself and that's for sure

'Cause I believed them when they said I must do things their way,
They tried to cast me in their mold
But I just had to say,
That I'm O.K.
I'm O.K. this way yes I'm O.K. Yes I'm OK!

I'm O.K.
I finally found the person I've been searching for (everybody sing now!)
I'm alright
I'm feeling good about myself and that's for sure (whoo!)

I'm O.K.
I finally found the person I've been searching for (yahoo!)
I'm alright
I'm feeling good about myself and that's for sure
I'm O.K.
I'm feeling good about myself and that's for sure
I'm alright
I'm O.K. this way yes I'm OK!

All hail to the Lords of the Ring
To the magic and mystery they bring
To the music in their story
All hail to the Lords of the Ring
To the magic and mystery they bring
To the lands of ancient glory
In the year of the Lords
The message came from above
The heavens opened with their mighty sound
that shook the people in the town
And so we came from everywhere
The young and old the rich and poor
To hear the legend of the magic ring
and of the powers it could bring, they sing
All hail to the Lords of the Ring
To the magic and mystery they bring
To the music in their story
All hail to the Lords of the Ring
To the magic and mystery it brings
May we someday wear its glory
And now the message is clear
For I became a Lord this year
And though the legend was pure fantasy
We still need the hope it brings, so let's sing
All hail to the Lords of the Ring
To believe is a wonderous thing
May we always sing their glory
All hail to the Lords of the Ring
To the magic and mystery they bring
To the promise of their story

Tell me where are you going

Another year has passed me by
Still I look a myself and cry
What kind of man have I become?
All of the years I've spent in search of myself
And I'm still in the dark
'Cause I can't seem to find the light alone
Sometimes I feel like a man in the wildernes

You were the apple of the public's eye
As you cut the ribbon at the local mall
A mirage for both you and us
How can it be real?
We loved your body in that photograph
Your home state sure must be proud
The queen of the United States
Have you lost your cro

It's six o'clock

The warmth of spring, a gentle breeze blows through my hair

Broken dreams as we

Day into night she's with me
How sweet is her warm embrace
Safe in the scent of jasmine
So safe in her gold and lace
Mornings I find, she's left me
So cold so alone, but aware
I try to escape, she finds me
Oh run though I may, she's there, there, there, there, there...
Luck is a lady whose smile is as cold as a stone
She'll bring you things, many things you might never have known
But when your die is cast she'll have the final laugh at you
She'll lock you in a duel, where you come out the fool
Beware of the Queen of Spades
Her black widow's curse might find you yet
Beware of a love that you will regret
Her love means only your death
Day into night she's with me
Turn of a card, she's there
The first time is free, you know
But from now on, pay me, me, me, me, me...
Beware of the Queen of Spades
Her black widow's curse might find you yet
Beware of a love that you will regret
Her love means only your death
