Jeff Keith

One two three four!

I can't believe this fucked up world in which we're livin' in
Still I do the best that I can
Always got me on the lookout for a getaway
Runnin' hard, I'm a rock 'n' roll man

I know we can make it (and go, said that) all you gotta do is sign
Tellin' you all I wanna do is rock 'n' roll

Too late for love - baby it's too late
Too late for love - girl I gotta say
That it's you, I know, that makes me feel this way
Don't you know that it's too late for love

Foolish hearts gettin' caught up in a lover's game
That's the way some want it to be
Now all I need is someone, just to get me through the night
Any more is too much for me

I know we can make it (and go, said that) all you gotta do is sign
Tellin' you all I wanna do is rock 'n' roll

Oh baby it's too late, too late for love, too late, oh yeah

Too late for love, oh baby baby, it's too late for love
Too late for love, oh, I tell ya, it's too late for love

'Cos all I need is someone standin' by my side
I don't care if I have to see you cry
You oughta know my name, yes, it's too late for love

Hey, what's the deal man, don't it feel like something's goin' on
What's goin' down what's goin' around, and I'm gonna get some
What's this I see, a familiar face, and it's coming my way
I said I don't know who it is, it might be you and this just might be my day

Action talks - now action talks and bullshit walks
Action talks - you got something to say
Action talks - start talking, or get your walking
Action talks - start making your move on me-yeah-yeah

Sure was not nice, but wasn't going right, forget the consequences
Let's work it out instead of workin' out
We'll work it over till we get it right
What's this I need, now what's this I like, it came, you sent it my way
Till I realized all the innocent lies, it was gonna take my heart outta me

Action talks - now action talks and bullshit walks
Action talks - we got something to say
Action talks - nobody talkin', ain't no one walkin'
Action talks - no use in puttin' the blame on yesterday

Solo:

So here's the deal, it looks like it feels, they got it goin' on
They know it's going down what's going around, while we're waiting, how come
So the queen don't get to lose the president
Don't hear a word they say (fuck you!)
They come together as one and maybe get the job done
Instead of blaming yesterday

Action talks - action talks and bullshit walks
Action talks - you got something to say
Action talks - no use in cryin', no use in runnin'
Action talks - no use in puttin' the blame on yesterday
Action talks - no blamin' yesterday, say what you mean
Say what you mean (oh talk to me, talk, talk)
Say what you mean (just talk to me), say what you mean
Start talkin', start talkin', start talkin'
Say what you mean, you got a lot to say, you got a lot to say
Say what you mean, nobody's stoppin' you, nobody's stoppin' you
So tell me, what the fuck don't you say

I thought I saw the light, was it real or something I'm imagining
I thought I saw the light, if it was then tell me, did you see it too
Did you see the light, if you did now tell me, could you feel it too
Hey I saw the light, yeah tell me that you saw the light

I don't know why I even do it, all I know is I'm so glad
We always make it through it, one way or another
We're gonna make it or break

I got alot of love for you, I guess that means I got alot to lose
I got alot of love for you and only you

I don't know how we even do it, all I know is I'm so glad
We always make it through it, one more time now baby

Got me two times a wife, just like my mother
She's there to love and understand
Got me two times a wife, she really does have a touch just like no other hands
The sparkle in my eye, too many times I left her there alone at night
The way you light up my life, yeah your love is two times as nice

I don't know how we make it through it, all I know is I'm so glad
We always seem to do it, one way or another
We're gonna make it or break

I got alot of love for you, I guess that means I got alot to lose
I got alot of love for you and only you
I got alot of love for you, I do, and that's the way it should be

I don't know why we even do it, all I know is I'm so glad
We always make it through it, one more time now friend

Solo:

I got alot of love for you, I guess that means I got alot to lose
I got alot of love for you and only you and nobody else but you
I got alot of love for you, I guess that means I got alot to lose
I got alot of love for you and only you and no one else but you my friend
Oh, nobody else but you my friend

(I got a lot of love for you) I got a lot, I got a lot, a lot of love for you
(I got a lot of love for you) I do, oh I feel I got a lot to lose

You got a bad reputation
That's the word out on the town
It gives a certain fascination
But it can only bring you down

You better turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
Turn yourself around

You had bad breaks well that's tough luck
You play too hard too much rough stuff
You're too sly so cold
That bad reputation has made you old

Turn yourself around
Turn yourself around
Turn it upside down
Turn yourself around

People moving out, people moving in. Why, because of the color of their skin.
Run, run, run but you sure can't hide. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
Vote for me and I'll set you free. Rap on, brother, rap on.
Well, the only person talking about love thy brother is the...(preacher.)
And it seems nobody's interested in learning but the...(teacher.)
Segregation, determination, demonstration, integration, Aggravation, humiliation, obligation to our nation.
Ball of confusion. Oh yeah, that's what the world is today. Woo, hey, hey.
The sale of pills are at an all time high.
Young folks walking round with their heads in the sky.
The cities ablaze in the summer time.
And oh, the beat goes on.
Evolution, revolution, gun control, sound of soul.
Shooting rockets to the moon, kids growing up too soon.
Politicians say more taxes will solve everything.
And the band played on.
So, round and around and around we go.
Where the world's headed, nobody knows.

(Instrumental)

Oh, great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you.
Just a ball of confusion.

Oh yeah, that's what the world is today.
Woo, hey, hey.
Fear in the air, tension everywhere.
Unemployment rising fast, the Beatles new record's a gas.
And the only safe place to live is on an Indian reservation.
And the band played on.
Eve of destruction, tax deduction, city inspectors, bill collectors,
Mod clothes in demand, population out of hand, suicide, too many bills,
Hippies moving to the hills. People all over the world are shouting, 'End the war.'
And the band played on.

(Instrumental)

Great GoogaMooga, can't you hear me talking to you.
Sayin'... ball of confusion.
That's what the world is today, hey, hey.
Sayin'... ball of confusion.
That's what the world is today, hey, hey.
Ball of confusion.
That's what the world is today, hey, hey.
Ball of confusion.

Hey! yeah, yeah. Uh huh.

Bustin' ass all day
Just to put food on the table.
And I always will for as long as I am able.
Done all I could,
Ev'rything that a man should do.
Still they refuse to call me,
Call me what I am. Hey!

Do you know what it takes to be a man?
Don't take a whole lots of money,
Diamond rings upon your hand, no.
That ain't what it takes to be a man.
Do right by the ones you love,
Always give a helpin' hand. Yes, I do.

Now I've been through it all
Seen the good, the bad, the ugly.
Always take care of my share of responsibilities.
Now, just because I grow my hair
And play in a rockin' band,
Old folks are always telling me,
"Boy, why don't you grow up
And be a man." Hey!

I know what it takes to be a man.
It ain't the way you look
Or the clothes that you wear.
That ain't what it takes to be a man.
Do right by the ones you love,
Always lend a helpin' hand.

I know I got what it takes,
I know I got what it takes to be a man.
So go ahead and say what you will.
Because I know what I am,
Just what I am. Ow!

Alright. Ow! Hey!

I know what it takes to be a man.
I've got what it takes
And you know I know what I am.
I know what it takes to be a man.
So go ahead, say what you will
'Cause I know what I am.
I'm a man.
Hoo hoo hoo hoo. I'm a man.
I know I got what it takes,
I know I got what it takes, ow!

She comes on softly as she moves across the room before me
I can't resist, I'm hypnotized, surrounded by her
I can't, I can't forget that face, and I will, I will go back to that place

She stands before my eyes, right before my eyes

I can see the colors coming one after another for me
I hear the words, feel the sound, going round in my head
But I know there's something out there, please tell me, is this reality

Right before my eyes, right before my eyes

She comes on softly as she moves across the room before me
I can't resist, I'm hypnotized
I can see the colors coming one after another for me
I see an image of myself

Before my eyes, right before my eyes
Right before my eyes, right before my eyes

She comes on softly as she moves across the room before me
I can't resist, I'm hypnotized, I'm surrounded by her
I can't, I can't forget that face, and I will, I will go back to that place

She stands before my eyes, right before my eyes

I can see the colors are coming one after another for me
I see the words, I hear the sound, going round in my head
But I know there's something out there, please tell me, is this reality

Right before my eyes, right before my eyes

Solo:

She comes on softly as she moves across the room before me
I can't resist, I'm hypnotized
I can see the colors are coming one after another for me
I see an image of myself

Before my eyes, right before my eyes
Before my eyes, before my eyes

That was nice, whoo! Typical nice, right Philadelphia? Right?
Yeah, I mean, you know (can you turn on the air conditioning, please?)
Can you turn on the air conditioner, please? It's fuckin' hot!
Turn on the air conditioner, or these people are gonna kill you!
Wait a minute, here. Oh! Oh, hey! (Oh, hey, we got a...)
Oh, Brian, you tried to give this play bass, didn't you, oh, hell no
Let's go jam a little Ebony and Ivory

Maybe I'm amazed at the way you love me all the time
Maybe I'm afraid of the... well, we don't know that song

But, anyway, right, we got Mr. Brian Wheat...
Thank you, that's just what I was... oh, and old Ted Tulsa hat
Well shit, goddamn, hell-puh - alright!
And anyway, we got Mr. Brian Wheat on the piano for ya on this one and
It's a tune of our second album (hit it!)
Hit it

Bell bottom blues, you made me cry
I don't want to lose this feeling
And if I could choose a place to die
It would be in your arms

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it, because
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay

It's all wrong but it's alright
The way that you treat me, baby
Once I was strong but I lost the fight
But you won't find a better loser

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it, because
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it, because
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay

Bell bottom blues don't say goodbye
We're surely gonna meet again
And if we do, don't you be surprised
If you find me with another lover, oh

Do you want to see me crawl across the floor to you?
Do you want to hear me beg you to take me back?
I'd gladly do it, because
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay
I don't want to fade away
Give me one more day, please
I don't want to fade away
In your heart I want to stay

I'm in love with a lady
And I know the lady's in love with me
And she knows how to always be there
That's why she's willin' and ready

But now and then, every once in a while
Something inside of me, maybe inside of her...
Have you ever had one of those days
Where it all is going wrong
And it just can't seem to get along?
But through it all you know you're gonna make it.

Call it true love
Call it not meant to be
You can call it anything at all, you see.
Call it what you want
It's all the same to me.

Music means a lot to me
Like love, I make it when I can.
All I am is all I'll ever be
And that's just a boy from Texarkana.

But now and then oh, but once in a while,
They start treating me like some kind of superstar.
Need I mention, at the end of the day
What matters most of all
It's not where you're at
Or where you're comin' from
When all is said and done
You can call it...

Heavy metal, hard-core, pop, punk, or thrash
You can call it anything, it don't matter to me
Call it what you want
It's all music to me

Call it communism, call it free
Some call the ocean what some call the sea
Call it what you want
That doesn't change a thing for me
Not a thing...

Baby's lyin' in the cradle
Universe is all within his reach
Wearin' rags or mink and sable
Needs a guidin' hand or it's out on the streets

Now momma's out
She's never at home
Daddy's taking care of business
He's out on the road
It's rainin' cats and dogs
But the child within us all must face the storm

Call it individuality
Some call it fate, others reality
Call it what you want
It doesn't matter to me

Call it communism, call it free
Some call the ocean what some call the sea
Call it what you want
That doesn't change a thing for me
Not a thing!

I'm in love with a lady
And I know the lady's in love with me
And she knows how to always be there

Young girl sweet as candy, a-turnin' hearts to stone.
She'll catch a young man's fancy. A-love 'em, leave 'em alone.
I should-a seen it comin'. She took me for a ride.
Still feel the fire burnin'. That's why I can't...

...Stop.
Can't stop fallin'.
I can't stop.
Can't stop fallin'.
I can't stop fallin' for your love.
Can't stop fallin'. Ah.
I can't stop.
Can't stop fallin'.
I can't win.
For losin'.
I can't stop fallin' for your love.
Can't stop fallin'.
I'm a fool for you.

Lovin' after midnight, a shadow on the run.
By the time ya realize, the damage has been done.
You better keep your distance, if ya know what's good for you.
Me, I got no resistance. And that's why I can't... (To Chorus)

Yeah, I'm a fool for you.
I'm a fool for you. Ow!

Little Miss "Cotton Candy" still turnin' hearts to stone.
Candy's fine and dandy, but then, sex don't rot your teeth
I never seen it comin'. She took by surprise.
Still feed the fire burnin'. That's why I can't... (To Chorus)

Yeah, I'm a fool for you. Ooh.
I can't stop fallin' for your love.
I can't stop. I can't stop fallin' for your love. Oh. Oh.

Now, if you can imagine this, the whole world sharing one big kiss
These are thoughts all through my brain, that I daydream everyday
That I'm alive and well, and right now, I'm alive, I'm feeling...well
It's my life to live my way, so I'll keep daydreaming away
And who knows, maybe someday, it will all come true
And I will get my way, and we will live as one

I'm caught up in a dream, I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain't gonna change a thing, no way, it's my dream

And what cannot will be done, for every living thing under the sun
Forget color, forget race, and just be one big happy face
Among this sea of people, live among God's creatures, sharing love
That was sent down from above, here to share with one another
Father, brother, sister, mother, everybody sharing love, sharing love

I'm caught up in a dream, I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain't gonna change a thing, no way, it's my dream, this is my dream

What if...I close my eyes and everything will be alright
Here in my fantasy, living in harmony
Make my dream come alive

I'm caught up in a dream, I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain't gonna change a thing, no way, it's my dream
I'm caught up in a dream, I'm gonna wish for it all
No one's gonna tell me how, no way, this is my dream now
I'm caught up in what seems simply impossible
I ain't gonna change a thing, no way, it's my dream

Now, if you can imagine this, the whole world sharing one big kiss
Take away the pain and hurt, make like heaven here on earth
Without reason to die, and given everlasting life for all

We're the younger generation,
and we're here to face the day.
Heard all across the nation,

Changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Rearrangin', can't seem to stop the hands of time

Now I'm older, growing older, and I see things differently
Oh can't you see, it's changin' you and me

Time's makin' changes, time's makin' changes in my life
Time's rearrangin', changin' you and me

For that moment I am taken over by the hands of fate
Can't you see, the world is changin' me

instrumental till end

You can come around
And I will help find a way
If somethin's got you down
Just one of those days
That you find you are caught in the middle
Feelin' like there aint no way out
And it hurts you more than just a little
Got your head all full of doubts
I'll be your shelter from the rain
Until it's time to swim
Be there to help you share the pain
While never givin' in
We'll keep it unconditional

Chorus:
Come to me
If you need some one
And you're lookin' for some company
Come to me
And I'll be there

Aint nothing like a friend
No matter what you do
Who's always there till the end
It's like you got nothing to lose
What about getting lost in the shuffle
Locked out when you're wantin' in
Got caught gettin' caught in the struggle
Knock you down - I'll pick you up again
And those days turn into lonely nights
And those nights into lonely days
I may not get it right
But I'll help you find a way
We'll take it all day by day

Come to me
If you need some one
And you're lookin' for some company
If you need some one
Know that you can count on me
If you need some one
Know that you can come to me

If somethin' bursted your bubble
Oh baby, your fortress has crumbled
Well there aint nothing' wrong with bein' humble
Cause humble is good for your soul
We all need'everybody needs
Someone to hold

You can come around
I will help find away
If somethin's got you down
Just one of those days
Long days and lonely nights
Long nights and lonely days
May not get it right but I'll help get it right
Take it day by day

Chorus

Alright!
Hey, are we ready?

Well I'm a mean machine, I'm the kind you don't wanna meet
My middle name is trouble, I'm a danger in the street
My motor's in overdrive, my pedal's to the floor
I never get enough, I'm always comin' back for more

Here I come, better step aside
I said here I come, oh yeah, well I'm a-comin' at you live
I'm comin' atcha live

The only one you want, I never give a warning twice
Well anything could happen like the rollin' of the dice

Here we come, you better step aside
I said here we come, we're comin' at you live

Comin' at you live - we're comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - you better step aside
Comin' at you live - ow! ow!

(Solo)

Comin' at you live - we're comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - you better step aside
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - step aside, step aside
Comin' at you live - 'cos here we come

Truckin', I'm a-goin' home, whoa whoa, baby, back where I belong
Back home, sit down and patch my bones, and get back truckin' on

What in the hell ever happened to sweet Jane?
She's lost her marbles, you know the chick ain't the same
Livin' on reds, and vitamin C, and cocaine
All the friend can say is "ain't it a bitch"

Busted down on Bourbon Street, set up like a bowlin' pin
Knocked down, sometimes I'm wearin' thin, they just won't let you in

Sometimes the light's all shinin' on me, other times I can barely see
Lately it occurs to me, what a long strange trip is this - that's right

Alright! You guys liked that one, right?
(Just like at home, that's pretty good...)

Hang on a second, I gotta tune up here, or tune down, actually
Alright! We're just fuckin' round tonight, but we're gonna have a good time
Ain't we, Philadelphia? Alright. Let's kick some ass!

Looks so good, from her head to feet
(Body English tights and) to me so so sweet
Got a perfect ten, there ain't no doubt
She's the kind of girl you dream about

You know she's got it - she's got everything
She knows you want it - oh but you'll never get a thing
Ooh what you're doin', baby what she's doin' to me
I'm head over heels, for that cover queen

Dressed to kill, this ain't no game
(Checkin' care of bitch 'cos) needs a life of fame
And everywhere she goes, she's the talk, she's the talk of the town
She keeps it clean, but still gets around

Ooh, head over heels for the cover queen, ohh

Hey there cover queen, you know the time will come
Where you're not laughin', neither one
'Cos the pretty smile will have a brandnew face
Will come along to take your place

You know she's got it, now she's got everything
You know you want it, oh but you'll never get a thing
Ooh what you're doin', baby what she's doin' to me
I'm head over heels, head over heels, for that cover queen

Oh every time I look at you, all I wanna do is get next to you
I see your face in a magazine, the best lookin' bitch that I've ever seen
I'm in love

Any day at all, any time, any way it take me to make you mine
I would give it all, give it all and more
Give you more than you could ever want from me
If anything they say is true, you gotta have 'em, if you wanna sing the blues
'Cos some nights, there ain't nothing I can do, but

Cry, cry an ocean
No use tryin' to hide what's slowly dying in me, what's slowly dying in me

Now I will confess, was no second guess
With all your love you left to me, it was a mess
Once there was a time, was no compromising
You (left so life can't do possess)

If anything they say is true, what goes around will be coming to you, I know
Some night, there'll be nothing you can do, but

Cry, cry an ocean
No use trying to hide what's slowly dying in me
Cry, do you feel that it's over
What you may fear is still alive, it's slowly dying in me

I cried, guess you're crying now
(I'm blind to the end, I cried...)
Tried to be everything I could, for you, from me, all I could be
Tried to be everything I could, for you, from me, all I could be
Tried, tried to be everywhere I could, for you, cried out my eyes for you

For you

Solo:

Take no bad talk, I ain't a toy, I won't be somebody's boy
My heart ain't (chasin') no game and if I do play, I'm takin' my time
Take no bad talk (I take no), take no bad talk (ah, hell no)
I won't be your boy, ain't gonna be a toy

If anything they say is true, anytime it should be coming for you

Cry, cry an ocean
No use trying to hide what's deep inside of me
You can cry, do you feel that it's over
Don't you come crying, no don't come crying, don't come crying to me!

I'm a mean machine, I'm the kind you don't wanna meet
My middle name is trouble, I'm a danger in the street
My motor's in overdrive, I got my pedal to the floor
Never get enough, always comin' back for more - yeah yeah

Here I come, better step aside
Here I come, I'm comin' atcha live, comin' atcha live

I'm the one you want, I never give a warning twice
Anything could happen like the rollin' of the dice - now!

Here I come, you better step aside
Here I come, comin' atcha live

Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - oh here I come

Come on!

Comin' at you live - I'm comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - oh here I come
Comin' at you live - step aside, oh step aside

Ow! Ow! Oh yeah, here I come - here I come

I'm a mean machine, I'm the kind you don't wanna meet
My middle name is trouble, I'm a danger in the street
My motor's in overdrive, I got my pedal to the floor
Never get enough, always comin' back for more - yeah yeah

Here I come, better step aside
Here I come, I'm comin' atcha live, comin' atcha live

I'm the one you want, I never give a warning twice
Anything could happen like the rollin' of the dice - now!

Here I come, you better step aside
Here I come, comin' atcha live

Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - oh here I come

Come on!

Comin' at you live - I'm comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - comin' atcha live
Comin' at you live - oh here I come
Comin' at you live - step aside, oh step aside

Ow! Ow! Oh yeah, here I come - here I come

I saw a light, just up ahead
But I couldn't seem to rise up from my bed
I'm not alone, than I am
People seem to think I'm superman
But I watch for the love
I'm living in the day of the eagle, the eagle not the, dove

It's like a weight, that brings me down
If I don't move, I'm on the ground
It's in my mind, Its in my soul
It's telling me the things I can't be told
It's a watch for the love
Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove

Another day, another night
I want to love, they want to fight
I need the time, I got to be alone
I got to meet a lover on my own
I watch for the love
Living in the day of the eagle, eagle not the, dove

Dear Mister Fantasy play us a tune
Something to make us all happy
Do anything take us out of this gloom
Sing a song, play guitar
Make it snappy
You are the one who can make us all laugh
But doing that you break out in tears
Please don't be sad if it was a straight mind you had
We wouldn't have known you all these years

repeat x2

Down on the corner, walkin' the streets.
She smiles for ev'ryone she meets.
He's not a man, no, he's just another trick.
She'd do it all just to get that fix.
Did you do it for love?
Did you do it in the name of love?
No, it ain't love she's gonna find.
She's got just one thing on her mind:

Chorus:
Money. She did, she did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.

Cold in the city with the traffic slow.
He's got nobody, no place to call home.
But he's got a habit, oh, that he can't control;
Takin' hard earned money from a poor, helpless soul.
Didn't do it for love.
Didn't do it in the name of love.
No, it ain't love he's out to find.
He's got just one thing on his mind:

Chorus:
Money. He did, he did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.

Bridge:
And the young girl, she gets down on her knees, she's there to please.
She wants her money.
And then the young man says, "Now, put your hands in the air.
Give me what I want, Give me what I need. Now don't you see?
All I want, all I want, all I want is your money, yeah. Give it to me!"

He's got the money, left the scene of the crime.
Not a clue would he leave behind.
One's bad misfortune make for another's eats.
And now the young girl's trick's his treat.

Chorus:
Money. He did, he did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.
For the money. He did it, did it for the money.
All in the name of money.
All for the dirty green.

I ain't no program on your television screen.
They only taught me what they wanted me to be.
Heard all your so-called facts. Now hit me with the truth.
Takes a lotta nerve the way you played me for the fool.

It's my personal selection to fly in my own direction.
No time for fuckin' 'round with mediocrity.
Takes ev'rything I got just tryin' to be me.
Life's like a highway. We're all try'n' to stay on time.
Travel atcha own speed. You take your lane, I'll take mine.
Don't believe all that you hear or half of whatcha see.
'S'waste o' time to criticize. Don't de-rock me.

(Chorus:)
Don't de-rock me. Don't de-rock me.
You be you and I'll be me. Don't de-rock me.

"Backstage Betty", banana in her cherry, in the shower down on her knees.
Like to think she'll own ya if she'll do all that ya please.
Hurts like a mother bein' cursed by a punter who's five sheets to the wind.
Won't stop at nothin', claimin' to be cousin till security lets 'em in.

Now I'm no symbol of perfection, so why deal with this infection?
Tired of bein' treated like some piece of property.
Fakes, lies, patronizin' don't sit well with me.
Blastin' down the highway, try'n' to stay between the lines.
You can get to where you're go'n'. Just don't ignore the signs.
Don't de-rock me. Don't de-rock me.
'S'waste o' time to criticize. Don't de-rock me.

(Chorus)

But we wrote this one, way back in the club days matters
When this was where it's at.
You know, fuck all that 15,000, this was it, you know
And we just love it, and this is the kind of shit we was writin' on the side
'Cos we love to get down fo' boogie

Oh take it away, Frankie, baby!

I wanna ride all around, into the sun
And I won't be back 'til the morning comes
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long

I said come what come, all gather round, 'cos we're all gonna put it down
Get down fo' boogie, all night long, ow!

(Solo)

Mr. Skeoch

(Solo)

I wanna ride all around, into the sun
And I won't be back 'til the morning comes
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long

I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, down fo' boogie
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long, yes I do
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long, tell me, how 'bout you
I'm gettin' down fo' boogie, all night long

That's all folks!

Philadelphia, thank you very much for puttin' up with us tonight
Thank you

Now I know why the man on the moon
Won't show his face, I wouldn't if I was you
Go running high, think it's better you do
Playin' no hide and seek, keekaboo

If it wasn't for you, if it wasn't for me
Where in the world, where in the world would this world be

Why do we lie, till (our face is hot and) blue
How can I rely, countin' on you
No I don't mind, long as it's true
You got the old in with the new

It wasn't working for you, it wasn't working for me
So how in the world could we stand and watch while this world bleeds

One more day, could be all it takes, to burn this damn place to the ground
Down to the seeds
One more change, we're gonna rip this entire place
Up off the earth and split the seeds - except for you and me

Why don't we cry, instead of laugh in the face
How can we deny we're destroying this place
No I'm not fine - with what?

If it wasn't for trust, peace and harmony
If it wasn't for love, tell me where in the world would this world be

One more day, we might rip this entire place
Up off the earth and split the seeds - burstin' in two
One more change, we're gonna take each entire race
Turn it all around and split the seeds

Solo:

If it wasn't for land, if it wasn't for see
All the trees, all the ocean, all the air we breathe
If it wasn't for life and all of us
Now tell me where would this world be, yeah

One more day, could be all it takes, to burn this damn place to the ground
Down to the seeds
One more change, we're gonna take each entire race
Turn it all around and split the seeds - except for you and me
One more day, may rip this entire place
Up off the earth and split the seeds - bursting in two
One of these days, just watch and see, the (blues) is gonna show its face
And that's the end for you and me!

You're guilty of crime in the first degree,
Second and third as well.
My jury finds you'll be serving your time
When you go straight to hell.

'Cause he was Lord of the Lightning,
Though "socially frightening",
But never out to sell.

Their nickels and pence
Meant more than did sense,
And not the sensible thing.

Nor did the man outta time, man outta time.
Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind.
Man outta time, man outta time.
All along, world was wrong. You was right.

All that he saw, all he conceived,
They just could not believe.
Steinmetz and Twain were friends that remained,
Along with number three.
He was electromagnetic, completely kinetic,
"New Wizard of the West."
But they swindled and whined that he wasn't our kind,
And said Edison knew best.

He was the man outta time, man outta time.
Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind.
Man outta time, man outta time.
Said you was outta your mind!

You took a shot and it did you in.
Edison's medicine.
You played your cards, but you couldn't win.
Edison's medicine.

I spent twelve years of hard time,
More like the best years of my life.
Never heard or read a single word
About "the man" and his "wicked mind."
They'll sell you on Marconi.
Familiar, but a phony.
Story goes they sold their souls
And swore that you'd never know.

About the man outta time, man outta time.
Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind.
Man outta time, man outta time.
Swore you was outta your mind!

You took a shot and it did you in.
Edison's medicine.

You had it right in the palm of your hand, right before your eyes
Now it's gone and you don't understand, you've got to realize
There comes a time when you've got to let things go as fast as they come
Wait and see what tomorrow may bring you, get it all while you can
Sometimes it just feels so right, and other times so wrong
Every new day it brings on the night, the change goes on and on and on and on
It never stops, no it keeps on rollin', wiped away like an [arch of] sand
Here it comes, there it goes, always changin' ends
Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, that's what they call it
Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh no!
(Solo)
Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh, you know that's what they call it
Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh whoa!
Talk of let go when it took so long to get, it's [how the lovin' goes]

Ez Come Ez Go - Tesla

(Keith, Skeoch, Hannon, Wheat, Luccketta)

You had it right in the palm of your hand,
right before your eyes
Now it's gone and you don't understand,
you've got to realize

There comes a time when you've got to let things go as fast as they come
Wait and see what tomorrow may bring you,
get it all while you can

Sometimes it just feels so right, and other times so wrong
Every new day it brings on the night, the change goes on and on and on and on

It never stops, no it keeps on rollin', wiped away like an (arch of) sand
Here it comes, there it goes, always changin' ends

Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, that's what they call it
Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh no!

[Solo]

Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh, you know that's
what they call it
Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh whoa!

Talk of let go when it took so long to get,
it's (how the lovin' goes)

Look at me, I'm young and bold.
Even though I may be growin' old,
I'm never slowin' down.
No, I won't slow down.
I feel like dynamite, I'm ready to explode.
Amplifier pushin' overload.
Outta touch with reality
To the point of insanity, yeah.

Chorus:
Goin' down on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast.
Goin' down, I'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down.

Opinion is a piece of mind.
Some are good, some are just like
Where the sun don't shine.
You know sometimes they can stick out loud, yeah.
Now, the more you look, the more you're gonna find.
More than enough to blow your mind.
It's such a mess, it's a cryin' shame.
And we've only got ourselves to blame.

Chorus:
Goin' down on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast.
Goin' down, I'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down.

So just stop, let me off.
Seems that I can't get my point across to you.
I know you're listening,
But I'm just not getting through, yeah, yeah.

Now there's one more thing I would like to say:
This is everybody's world and everybody's
Gonna live it their own way,
No matter what we say, yeah!
Now the headlines read all across the lands
'Bout the motherfuckers gettin' way outta hand.
Troubled minds are full of hate,
Willin' to destroy the human race.

Chorus:
Goin' down, I'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast.
I'm goin' down, I'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast.

Outro / Chorus:
Goin' down, on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down.
Goin' down, I'm on a flight to nowhere.
Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down.

I pledge no allegiance to your flag.
I feel I got me some damn good reasons for feelin' bad.
Way they take away ev'ry mother's son,
If you want freedom now, it's got to be won.
It's only bullets. It's just a gun.
Ain't gon' hurt no one.

I don't know what they must be thinkin'.
Makin' decisions on a hard night's drinkin'.
Momma, gon' take your little boy.
Gonna make him 'to a man,
Make him a stranger in a strange land.

(Chorus:)
Freedom slaves
What have you done
Freedom slaves
With ev'ry mother's son?
Freedom slaves
Can't ya see that we're all freedom slaves?
Freedom slaves
What have you done?
Freedom slaves
And all for number one.
Freedom slaves
It's clear to see that we're all freedom slaves.

No sign of justice nor liberty
By takin' an Indian Nation, 'cause they was all that we wanted to be.
All good people from the Kingdom of the Sun.
Welcome to freedom. Now, there's work to be done.
It's only natural to know it's wrong.
Why did it go so long?

I don't know what next they'll be killin',
Rapin' the land with pollution and spillin'.
Here's to the tired, to the hungry, to the helpless and the poor.
Is there no glory for blisters and sores?

(Chorus)

Who are those people?
So patriotically sittin' back of tables
POn their asses, lickin' labels, tryin' to change me.
You'd think the way they act, the way they carry on,
You'd think that I was the devil's Seventh Son.
But it's only words. It's just a song.
Ain't gonna hurt no one.

(Chorus)

Freedom slaves.
Freedom slaves.
Freedom slaves.

Welcome to freedom. Now, there's work to be done.
It's only natural to know it's wrong.
Why did it go so long?

I don't know what next they'll be killin',
Rapin' the land with pollution and spillin'.
Here's to the tired, to the hungry, to the helpless and the poor.
Is there no glory for blisters and sores?

(Chorus)

Who are those people?
So patriotically sittin' back of tables
POn their asses, lickin' labels, tryin' to change me.
You'd think the way they act, the way they carry on,
You'd think that I was the devil's Seventh Son.
But it's only words. It's just a song.
Ain't gonna hurt no one.

(Chorus)

Freedom slaves.
Freedom slaves.
Freedom slaves.

Attention!
About Face!
March!
Left, right, left, right, left, right.
Your momma, she was a....(fade out)

All the games people play now, every night every day now
Never meaning what they say now, never saying what they mean
While they while away the hours in their ivory towers
Till they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine

Oh we make one another cry, breakin' hearts when we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die, except the other was to blame
Either one will ever kill it, so we gaze and we make pretend
Thinkin' 'bout things that might have been, oh it's a dirty rotten shame

Chorus:
Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee
Talkin' 'bout you and me, and the games people play
Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee
Talkin' 'bout you and me, and the games people play

People walkin' up to ya, singin' glory hallelujah
Sayin' what the hell's it to ya, if we do it in the name of the Lord
We're gonna teach ya how to meditate
(Preach our hearts from teacher's faith)
Put them on a hell of hate, come on, let's get on board

Chorus:

Solo:

Look around, tell me what you see, what's happening to you and me
Got burning my serenity, to the neighborhood at hand
'Cos you're givin' up your sanity, or your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity, ow, when you don't give a damn, not a damn

Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee
Talkin' 'bout you and me, and the games people play
Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee
Talkin' 'bout everybody, talkin' 'bout you, 'bout you and me
(Ladandaladandadada) you and me, (ladandaladandadadee)
I'm talkin' bout the games, the games we all play
(Ladandaladandadada) ladanda, (ladandaladandadadee) ladandadadee
All the games, talkin' bout the games people play

What i feel is what i say,

I’m keeping it real so never mind the taste,



Cause i know there’s nothing deeper than truth,

So give me the reason not the excuse,

Even the things i can hardly believe,

Is something that i can use,



I’ll never be your alibi,

Or tell you what you want to hear,

Knowing that i’d rather die.

Than have my words be insincere,



I GOT NO GLORY,



So i’m gonna give it to you like it is,

If you want to hear the real story,

And not some candy coated lie



COME AND GET IT



To falsify don’t make no sense,

I’d rather deal with the consequences,



Cause i know there’s nothing deeper than truth,

So give me the reason not the excuse,

Even the things i can hardly believe,

Is something that i can use



I’ll never need an alibi,

Don’t sell it to me out of fear

I told you that i’d rather die.

Than have my words be insincere



I GOT NO GLORY,



So i’m gonna give it to you like it is,

If you want to hear the real story,

And not some candy coated lie



I GOT NO GLORY,



So i’m gonna give it to you like it is,

If you want to hear the real story,

And not some candy coated lie



COME AND GET IT

Where the buffalo roam,
Where the deer and antelope play.

Fuck it up until it's bent,
Then a-wonder where it went.
Thinkin' you was a-heaven sent, ha ha ha,
You're nothin' but hell!

Anybody here see the noise, see the fear
And commotion,
I think we missed it
Anybody here see the love, see the hate
Being motioned...

Don't Give me no hand me down shoes
Don't Give me no hand me down love
Don't Give me no hand me down world
Got one already.

Anybody here see the long distance cheer
For the notion,
I think we missed it
Anybody here see the sky weaping tears
For the ocean...

(Chorus)

Anybody here see fuzzy-wuzzly loving cup explosion
I think we missed it
Anybody here see the changing of the year-end emotion...

A heartache made just for you.

If you should stumble, if you should fall,
Pick yourself up off the floor.
Fight for what's right and stand your ground.

You gotta give it your best shot.

Tell me why there so much pain today
‘Cause taking lives is for the gain or so they say
I can't believe it but they feel this way
And that's the way of the world
Tell me why it takes a tragedy to see
To wake us up and bring us down on to our knees
With all the people suffering with diseases

And that the way
That's the way
That's the way of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel everybody's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

Teach the children what means to love
Show them why we can never give enough
Lets work together we can rise above

And change the ways
Change the ways
Change the ways of the world

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

(Heaven)

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sun burns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better everyday
As the sky turns the ground
There's got to be another way
Is our god looking down
And does it feel every body's pain
As the world crashes down
Heavens looking better every day

I met a gin-soaked bar-room queen in Memphis
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

I laid a divorcee in New York City
I had to put up some kind of a fight
The lady then she covered me in roses
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

It's the honky tonk women
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues

I've got a feeling, a feeling deep inside, oh yeah
Oh, yeah, that's right
I've got a feeling, a feeling I can't hide, oh no no
oh no, oh no
Yeah, yeah
I've got a feeling, yeah

Oh please believe me, I'd hate to miss the train
Oh yeah yeah oh yeah
And if you leave me, I won't be late again
oh no, oh no, oh no
yeah, yeah
I've got a feeling, yeah
I've got a feeling

All these years I've been wandering around
wondering how come nobody told me
All that I was looking for was somebody
who looked like you

I've got a feeling that keeps me on my toes
oh yeah, oh yeah
I've got a feeling that everybody knows
oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
yeah, yeah
I have hot a feeling, yeah
Yeah

Everybody had a hard year
Everybody had a good time
Everybody had a wet dream
Everybody saw the sun shine
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Everybody had a good year
Everybody let their hair down
Everybody pulled their socks up
Everybody put their foot down
oh yeah

Everybody had a good year
Everybody had a hard time

I've got a feeling
I've got a feeling, yeah

The future's on it's way, the past is gone.
Old & rusted with your busted bones.
Break the crystal ball, you're on your own
Wipe away the fear of the unknown.
Chorus:
Now here we go, on with the show
Makin' our way. just livin' for today
it's in our sights and the tome is right,
for takin' a bow into the now.

Guilty of communication crimes.
Was it just a binge, or was I blind.
Overcoming opened up my mind.
Don't let the things from the past eat you up inside.
Chorus

Is it love that you break, or is it love that you make
Is it love were breaking, love were making, or love just wasting time.

Chorus twice.

With a snap in her style and a click in her heels.
In seconds flat my heart she could steal.
Lookin' ev'ry bit of a where it's at.
More like breakfast, lunch and dinner, as a matter of fact.
Mm. There she stood in living color, standin' all alone.
So I walked up to her, I say, "How do you do?"
And she said, "I don't".

Lady Luck took a walk.
When all I wanted was some company.
Lady Luck took a walk.
You know she walks right out on me.
Hard as it seems, but not as hard to believe.
What can it be?
I guess I'm on a losin' streak.

And I know it's true, I got a bad attitude.
But I'm down on my luck. Bitch, tell me, what's your excuse?
Tell me now.

Lady Luck took a walk.
When all I wanted was some company.
Lady Luck took a walk.
You know she walks right out on me.

Just about a year ago, I set out on the road
Seekin' my fame and fortune, I'm lookin' for a pot of gold
Things got bad and things got worse, I guess you know the tune
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

I boarded on the Greyhound, and I'm walkin' there, by the road
I was just passin' through, it must be seven months or more
I ran out of time and money, it looks like the two were friends
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

Solo:

Man from a magazine, who said I was on my way
But somewhere I lost connection, I ran out of songs to play
I planned many times of one-night stands, it looks like my plans fell through
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

If I had a million dollars for every song I've sung
Or every time I had to play while people slapped their tongue
I know I'll catch the next train, back to where I live
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again
Oh Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again

There we go, get ready!

Verse 1

Well i'd never break your heart, now tell me would you break mine
Re-wind and clean the slate, wipe away the hard times
Well i never did forsake you, and i never would
I got away from the common ground, just because i could
There was a shadow, following me around
Somehow i lost my way, that was then, take a look at me now

Chorus
For everything in life, there is a reason
Sometimes the reason i do, make it not so good

Verse 2

Seems like all that time away took me one step closer to my suicide
Spun around like i jus got played, all caught with the users and the crucified
A shining example of what you never wana be
The fame of teachers drowning in a wishing well
With no apology
Me and my shadow, no-body else around, somehow i lost my way, that was then take a look at me now

Chorus

Short Verse

Feels like the time is right for getting back to even
You are the reason i do, aint that enough for you!

Chorus

Short Verse

Feels like the time is right for getting back to even
You are the reason i do, aint that enough for you
Aint that enough for you
You are the reason i do
Aint that enough for you
ahhhh, take a look at me now

It's day and I'm feelin' high, what's the chances for you and I

Now, I don't wanna waste your time,
I only want to satisfy.
So wind me up and watch me go,
I'm gettin' crazy as the night unfolds.

Gimme, gimme what I want,
Keep it up now, don't stop,
And I will do the same for you.
I'm gonna take it over the top.

Pre-chorus:
What you see ain't what you get,
There's more than meets the eye.
'Cause you ain't seen nothin' yet.
It's up to us, me and you,
Together we can fly high, high.

Chorus:
I got you, now you got me.
Feels so good to be
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
It ain't no mystery. Come on!

Get down, way down low.
C'mon let's get on with the show.
And let the music set you free.
Like a leaf in the wind, let it be.
Gimme what I need to satisfy
This dirty one-track mind.
You know I ain't got nothin' but time
To burn with you tonight.

2nd Pre-chorus:
Now anything you see is everything you get
At your desire.
I know it's makin' you hot and know it's soakin' me wet.
Higher and higher, feedin' the fire,
Let it burn.

2nd Chorus:
He's got her and she's hot and you got me.
Don't it taste so sweet!
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
It ain't no mystery.
Now, when I get into you, get into me.
The rest is history.
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
Let's get it together. C'mon.
Ready, get set, just like one two and three!

Bridge:
Now it's taking me away to that magical land.
Many will search and never find what's yours and mine.

Outro-chorus:
You got me burnin' hot, now you're soakin' me wet.
Even better thana lick and a kiss.
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
It ain't no mystery.
Now, you think you've seen it all.
You ain't seen nothin' yet.
It sure beats the rest.
Makin' magic, makin' magic,
It ain't no mystery.

Out on the road, and a long long way from home
Why must I be so, must I be so misunderstood
While my intentions, my intentions all are good
Wish only one time that things would turn out like they should
Just like they should

Too many times, too many times payin' the price, just for the thrill
Too many hearts, too many times, overkill
So many times, double around, how many faces do reveal
How many folks gettin' to be over the hill

She always told me things, like those weren't made of sugar and spice
She always scolded me, "Don't let the same dog bit you twice"
Well I, Lord I've just been fooled again

Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool
Mama I ain't no fool - I've just been fooled again
Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool
Mama I ain't no fool - well I've just been fooled again

Too many lies, shame on the wives, too many cakes and eat it too
Too many hearts goin' straight down the tube
Hell of a dude, did it but don't have the time and the words for use
Too many rounds, too many times, overuse

She's always telling me, "Just take your time, always think twice"
Forever scolding me, "Don't let the same dog bit you twice"
Well I, hell I've just been fooled again

Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool
Mama I ain't no fool - I've just been fooled again
Mama she raised no fool - she did not raise a fool
Mama I ain't no fool

Oh, let me tell you if it happens again like it did next time
Somebody's gonna have to walk the line, walk the line!

(Solo)

She's always telling me, "Take my advice boy and just think twice"
Forever scolding me, "Don't let the same dog bit you twice"
Well I, Lord I won't be fooled again

Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool
Mama I ain't no fool - I've just been fooled again
Mama she ain't no fool - I may be crazy but I ain't no fool
Mama you crazy fool - may be crazy but I ain't no fool
Crazy but I ain't no fool, may be crazy, I may be crazy
Crazy but I ain't no fool

Out in the cold, and a long long way from home

Out on the road, and a long long way from home
Why must I be so, must I be so misunderstood
While my intentions, my intentions all are good
Wish only one time that things would turn out like they should
Just like they should

Too many times, too many times payin' the price, just for the thrill
Too many hearts, too many times, overkill
So many times, double around, how many faces do reveal
How many folks gettin' to be over the hill

She always told me things, like those weren't made of sugar and spice
She always scolded me, "Don't let the same dog bit you twice"
Well I, Lord I've just been fooled again

Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool
Mama I ain't no fool - I've just been fooled again
Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool
Mama I ain't no fool - well I've just been fooled again

Too many lies, shame on the wives, too many cakes and eat it too
Too many hearts goin' straight down the tube
Hell of a dude, did it but don't have the time and the words for use
Too many rounds, too many times, overuse

Mr. Trouble never hangs around,
when he hears this Mighty sound,

Here I come to save the day!
That means that Mighty Mouse is on the way!

Yes sir, when there is a wrong to right,
Mighty Mouse will join the fight!

On the sea or on the land,
He's got the situation well in hand!

Such a heavy price to pay,
all the time that I spent missing home,
and I try not to complain,
but sometimes it won't leave me alone,
and I think that I know myself better than anyone else.
Cause I'm me I ought to know,
what I want, what I need, what's inside of me.
Maybe something that took, to get out of my head
or took for the thrill,
the way that I dress, the way that I look, or the way that I pay the bills.

Cause your miles away, miles away,
how could you be so wrong,
cause your miles away, miles away,
how could you know the score.
All eyes on the stage now the glitter and the glow.
Move to the rhythm while striking a pose.
Music and melody words to a poem.
You think that you know me, you're not even close.

Though I'm living out my dreams,
wasn't long 'till I figured it out.
Nothin' ever comes for free
even here on a merry-go-round.
So you wanna take a ride,
rollin' and living the life,
cause you think I got it made.
Well in case you don't know my friend died today,
and it's tearing me apart.
If I knew what to say, don't know where to start.
I reach down in my heart and with paper and pen put it in a song.

'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you be so wrong?
'Cause you're miles away, miles away, how could you know the score?
All eyes on the stage, all the glitter and glow.
Move to the rhythm while striking a pose.
Music and melody and words to a poem.
You think that you know me, You're not even close.

The pages have burned but they're written in stone.
Now what will become of us now nobody knows,
and the wheel keeps on turning and I rise and I fall,
and I'll try to get back but I'm lost in it all,
and I look all around and I see that it's gone.

Your miles away.
Miles away.

'Guitar Solo'

Your miles away.
Yeah your miles away.
Miles away.
Yeah your miles away.

Stormy night under dead black skies, he pulls into town
Thunder rolls and the lightning bolts come crashin' to the ground
Cold as ice, hard as stone, as he walks into the room
With another man who was feeling the same way, all hell is breakin' loose

I said bang bang, shoot 'em all, I said bang bang, blow you away
It's a showdown in the no man's land, for the cowboy of the modern day
Come sundown, don't be hangin' round, 'cos the cowboy'll blow you away

(I could blow and the bad boy Jones), on the wrong side of the law
Johnny and his company, always fast to the draw, yeah
Get so lean, feelin' so mean, I try to take my lucky share
'Cos all I saw was ruin, oh, the smell of blood was in the air

Solo:

Ole!

So here we are and we've come this far, but it's only getting worse
Foreign lands with their (terrace) demands, only cost, they get hurt
The U.S.A., the U.S.S.R., wearin' six-guns to the side
I see the message, it's written on the wall, to my chain-gun deep inside

It's a showdown, yeah yeah yeah, ohh

Stormy night under dead black skies, Billy pulls into town
Thunder rolls and the lightning bolts come crashin' to the ground
Cold as ice, hard as stone, as he walks into the room
With another man who was feeling the same way, all hell's breakin' loose

Chorus:
Bang bang, shoot 'em all, bang bang, blow you away
It's a showdown in the no man's land, for the cowboy of the modern day
Come a sundown, don't be hangin' round, 'cos the cowboy'll blow you away

(I could blow and this bad boy Jones), on the wrong side of the law
Johnny Dee and his company, always fast to the draw, yeah
Get so lean, feelin' so mean, tryin' to take my winning share
'Cos all they saw was ruin, oh, the smell of blood was in the air

Chorus:

Solo:

So here we are and we've come this far, but it's only getting worse
Foreign lands with their (terrace) demands, only cost a good heart
The U.S.A., the U.S.S.R., with their six-guns to their side
I see the message written on the wall, to my chain-gun deep inside

Chorus:

The foreign lands with their terrorist demands,

Too much anger deep inside.
