Love And Rockets

I was rollin' down the window of my car
And I was thinkin' where the game had got me so far

Doesn't matter where you're goin' or where you're comin' from
Or is your life just like a grain of sand?
Fuck all else

Well, I was rollin' down the highway of my dreams
And I was wonderin' 'bout Hollywood sunsets and the silver screen

Doesn't matter where you're goin' or where you're comin' from
Or is your life just like a grain of sand?
Fuck all else

Doesn't matter where we're goin' or where we're comin' from
Or is your life just like a grain of sand?
Fuck all else

Rollin' down the highway in a dream
I was rollin' down the highway in a dream
Just rollin' down the highway in a dream

Just rollin', just rollin'
Just rollin', just rollin'

Let the demons in
Let your lover fly away
Do you understand
These are the words of a fool?

Let the demons in
Let your lover fly away
Do you understand
These are the words of a fool?
Words of a fool, words of a fool

Though it's very pretty
This cup is made of gold
Do you understand
These are the words of a fool?
Do you understand
These are the words of a fool?

I want to touch the hand that feeds you
You take my breath away
I look at you and I just want to
Come, come, come, come, come

Just want a taste
Just want a taste

Let the demons in
Fly away
Do you understand?

I want to touch the hand that feeds you
You take my breath away
I look at you and I just want to
Come, come, come, come, come

Just want a taste, just want a taste
Just want a taste, just want a taste
Just want a taste, just want a taste
Just want a taste

Teardorops are coming
Until you are cured
The picture imperfection
Don't come to your cures
The future could be rosy
But you won't begin
See your own light shining
Light within
Hell's bells are banging
On a hotel wall
Now the feeling keeps coming
Now you fall
Bang that drum till tomorrow
Now you fall

The stage is an empty place for Natacha
Home tonight is a hole in a wall for Natacha
She wants and needs some love tonight - aaaah Natacha
Maybe it comes tomorrow for Natacha

You can't get the answer
That's the way you want it
And you don't get the situation you need
That's the way you want it
And I can't do a damn thing
That's the way you want it
You are the star
You are the star

This is a story for blues singers baby
This is a story for a ship's captain, too
You never know just what's around the corner
What pain or pleasure's gonna come at you

Ooh aah
Ooh aah

The tall girl's eyes do all the talking
In a sad and beautiful world
Yeah, the tall girl's eyes do all the talking
It's all to do with the love she wants in this world

Ooh aah
Ooh aah

She got long blond hair and blue eyes shining
And his fingers make her come in her sleep
But she says to herself you need nobody darling
Ooh, what about love

Ooh aah
Ooh aah

Don't matter what a lucky thing you are
Don't matter just how cool you think you, you
When the girl walks up to the bar
Oh you just, just got to give it a spin

And she sits there immaculate at a table
And it's just close enough for you
As she stares at a street lamp from a table
Never, never she'll notice you
But you don't accept this situation
You want to get up and tell her something good

Some days you make me feel so happy
Some days I feel blue
Some days I'm so [Incomprehensible], so neutral
Some days I fall in love with you

This is a story for blues singers baby
This is a story for a ship's captain, too
You never know just what's around the corner
What pain or pleasure's gonna come at you

Ooh aah
Ooh aah
Ooh aah
Ooh aah

How many A&R men does it take to change a light bulb?
I'll get back to you on that
How many spells and dollars does it take to make the magic
Of pulling legends from your hat?

Will they take another sucker for an undersell?
Regarding them with compliments and muskatelle
A honeymoon in Vegas in a plush hotel
Well, that's a sad town in the morning light

How many bullets in the back does it take
To kill a singing cowboy?
How much more of this bullshit can you take
From the charming envoy?

When you're making with the ballpoint on the dotted line
The Devil's in his heaven and your hair sublime
You fit the mold for stardom and the big bells chime
But it's gold leaf on a wild, wild, wind

And they're serving up your future with a twist of lime
Paying you in dollars for the perfect crime
And you're scratching off the silver for a nail of grime
And pissing in that bitter wind

Last month's color you've passed your sell by date
And your days are numbered
What is you shelf life? What is you shelf life?
What is you shelf life? What is you shelf life?

This is no ordinary girl
I ain't got no jaded feeling
Behind the lies the strength
For a vision to come
I must complete
And its a bad it's a bad such a bad state of affairs
That she holds in the palm of her hand
And its a bad it's a bad such a bad state of affairs
I hope she can understand it

This is no ordinary girl
I ain't got no jaded feeling
This is no ordinary girl
She jokes as she stares at the ceiling
Deep down you're drowning
I can see the tears
Deep down you just don't have a clue
How's a crippled man inside
How's the hopeless Mister Blue

This is no ordinary girl
I ain't got no jaded feeling

Sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
You know a million tears are gonna fall

Sister blue stay away from me
Tears so many now I can't see
Just waitin' for the jerk to phone
See you waitin' by the telephone

Ah that, sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
You know a million tears are gonna fall

Get a feeling like a desert inside
I'm so thirsty for some peace of mind
You never know me 'cause I'm always alone
So hungry for that little girl

Ah that, sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
You know a million tears are gonna fall

Sister blue stay away from me
Tears so many now I can't see
Just waitin' for the jerk to phone
See you waitin' by the telephone

Ah that, sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
You know a million tears are gonna fall

Sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
You know a million tears are gonna fall

Sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
Sweet lover of mine
...

Wants it all

That's all

You know she needs someone good
But you've got the fever

Using all the tricks in the book, babe

She says "you must read my lips," babe
You just can't do that
Doesn't get to feeling too low, babe
Want to end it all
To much fun, babe
And I know you will fall

You know she needs someone good
But you've got the fever

Feeling lower than low, babe
When everything is so wild
Feeling lower than low, babe
Now that's all I got

I know you need someone good

But I've got the fever

Help me find a reason...

Help me find a reason
Before my judgement day
To make some big, big money
So's I can run away
Good god what's the miracle
In this killing game
Help me see the big picture
Put my ego to shame

Hey hey hey
Before my judgement day

Caroline and kisses
I want to taste that again
In a room full of mirrors
I want to do that again
Good god what's the reason
For this killing game
I only want everything
Help me get that again

Hey hey hey
Before my judgement day

Before you can do that you'll need some of this
When you've had some of this you'll need some of these
Before you can get down from the trees

Are you are you are you clean

Does it mix with this
How many do you need
Is there a hungry heart
You need to feed

Does it mix with this
How many do you need
Is there a hungry heart
You need to feed

Are you clean

You were down
Now your higher than NASA
Once you're up
Why come down at all?

Become a star
Higher than NASA
Become a star
What a

Come
Help me feel

Are you clean?

Send me away
Send me away

Be the sea of Tranquility (Send me away)
To set me free (Send me away)
Be the sea of Tranquility (Send me away)
To set me free (Send me away)

Walls coming down, walls going up
See walls coming down and walls going up
Rave on as the empires fall
Corporations crash and kings are made to crawl

The red flag comes down, the left in demise
The blue flag goes up, the right on the rise
A flaming cross and a swastika
There's one way out and the road is on fire

We can fly on wings of thought
Start a revolution to take us higher

Be the revolution - now
Be the revolution - now

What's going down, what's coming up
What's going down here, and what's coming up
There's no such thing as solid ground
This given had been taken, and mass confusion found

Short lived utopia
The bird of peace forsaken and replaced by the warring hound
Which direction is asylum in
Well here's a map, a blindfold and a pin.

Refugees of the transitional
Now that we have nothing, we can begin

To be the revolution - now

Be the revolution - now (Come On) (Repeat)

Turn it upside down, turn it into something new
Light up that light baby and use your imagination
And if you give it hell, it will turn right back on you
Come On, Come On, and use your imagination - Oh yeah

Light up that cigar, baby and use your imagination
(Light up)
Some things are dark, some things are rare
Light up that cigar, baby and use your imagination

This place is no place for dreams or revelations
Look what you can do when you use your imagination
Feel close to an angel, feel close to a crown of thorns
Light up that cigar, baby and use your imagination

Turn it upside down, turn to something new
Come on, Come On, Come On, and use your imagination
