Don't take the fire from your eyes Must make them feel the heat They build castles underground for the rich and politic elite Keep all the home fires burning, Don't let the lights go out The streets are empty, and there's nobody about.
We'll be alright in the morning time, yeah We're doing fine, I'll see you on the night line
There's no need for you to fight, boys, Hang up all your guns Find your mask and asbestos you can, get ready to run Keep all the food lines moving, Don't come cry'n' for more The signs were there, you should have bought connections before
We'll be alright in the morning time, yeah We're doing fine, I'll see you on the nightline
It's such a big joke It's the talk of the town All the planets to whom I spoke Are trying their best to play it down
Don't take the fire from your eyes Must make them feel the heat But my head's unsteady I can't seem to keep my feet
We'll be alright in the morning time, yeah We're doing fine, I'll see you on the nightline
Jump off the Eiffel Tower Just have a look around Move fast, in the tunnels of the underground Move fast, in the tunnels of the underground
I'm not tryin' to impress you with my lines They don't mean nothin' at all It's just another expression of mine It don't mean nothin' at all Mystifying, Oh no Crystalizing, you know
People just love to play with words People just love to play, haven't you heard? People just love to play with words People just love to play, haven't you heard?
There are two sides, a win or loss What's two down and four across? Analyzing and implying, you know
People just love to play with words People just love to play, haven't you heard? People just love to play with words People just love to play, haven't you heard?...
Skip de skip, up the road Off to school you go "Don't you be a bad boy Johnny Don't you slip up Or play the fool" "Oh no Ma, Oh no Da, I'll be your golden boy I will obey ev'ry golden rule" Get told by the teacher Not to day-dream Told by my mother:

Hello to you, my sweet young friends Have you got money perhaps you could lend? I wash my leather face in the afternoon sun My shirt's turn my time's near done
Touching the untouchables but they don't know Respect the disrespectables, but in the end you know You turn away, what can I say?
Spend my nights in the telephone booth I make sure I leave the phone off the hook There are no Jones' and I pay no rent I have to stand straight because my back's so bent Tell my secretary I ain't takin' any calls, And if you want to find me, just ask the boys... Down at the wall...That's where I'll be...
Oh... Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Park bench and cigarettes Can you help me get off this fence? Can't you see, I'm just an old man Tryin' hard, do what I can
Touching the untouchables but they don't know Repect the disrespectables, but in the end you know You turn away, what can I say? You'll never, never know You'll never know
Experience babe, kickin' stones and cans Experience babe, cigarette-stained hands It's not too late, hear it in the wind It's not too late, feel passion creepin' in Intoxication, familiar smells of the hotels Infatuation, of knowing who you are
You and I, You and I, You and I, Arrow through my heart, Catch a star.
Isolation, rows and rows of cars Isolation, like Jupiter and Mars Staring faces, set in celluloid Welcome to the late show, starring Null and Void Complications, things get in the way Sweet sensation of knowing you are near and not too far
You and I, You and I, You and I, Arrow through my heart Catch a star.
You and I, You and I, You and I, Freeway through your heart Catch a star.
Traveling in a fried-out combie On a hippie trail, head full of zombie I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said,
"Do you come from a land down under? Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover."
Buying bread from a man in Brussels He was six foot four and full of muscles I said, "Do you speak-a my language?" He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich And he said,
"I come from a land down under Where beer does flow and men chunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover."
Lying in a den in Bombay With a slack jaw, and not much to say I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me Because I come from the land of plenty?" And he said,
"Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah) Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover."
I called you up on the telephone You weren't there, you weren't at home He didn't know what to do Now he's sniffin glue Honey you're driving him Crazy, hazy, crazy I'm amazed if, 'mazed if I get through, go
I went down to the corner street Bought a record with a beat But that just didn't do Made him think of you The record is drivin' him
Crazy, hazy, crazy, hazy
He needs some love, this madness is drivin' him Around the bend, he can't see to the end Round and round and round and round he goes
Got new neighbours, moved in next door They got some daughters, I counted four, He's forgotten your name I know who's to blame These honeys are drivin' him...
Crazy, hazy, crazy, hazy, Round and round and round and round he goes
Who can it be knocking at my door? Go 'way, don't come 'round here no more. Can't you see that it's late at night? I'm very tired, and I'm not feeling right. All I wish is to be alone; Stay away, don't you invade my home. Best off if you hang outside, Don't come in - I'll only run and hide.
Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now?
Who can it be knocking at my door? Make no sound, tip-toe across the floor. If he hears, he'll knock all day, I'll be trapped, and here I'll have to stay. I've done no harm, I keep to myself; There's nothing wrong with my state of mental health. I like it here with my childhood friend; Here they come, those feelings again!
Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now?
Is it the man come to take me away? Why do they follow me? It's not the future that I can see, It's just my fantasy
Oh...Who can it be now? Oh...Who can it...Who can it... Yeah yeah yeah

Feel so washed up today Haven't really got much to say Blood on the pillow on my bed Explains the pain that's in my head
Sometimes I don't know just where to go Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well 'Cos I'm walking on a high wire High wire
Oh won't someone let me in I'm stinking and I'm full of gin No need to close the door so fast I'm very fragile not built to last
Sometimes I don't know just where to go Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well 'Cos I'm walking on a high wire High wire
Have to pull it together We're in for some stormy weather Have to pull it together We're in for some nasty weather
High wire, high wire high wire, high wire high wire, high wire
It really isn't too much fun Sitting round waiting for the night to come It's almost time to put on my suit of cool I may be an idiot but indeed I am no fool
Sometimes I don't know just where to go Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well 'Cos I'm walking on a high wire
Give me no restrictions on what I do or say Don't speak of tomorrow when it's still today Leave me to my selfish ways, I'm well enough alone That is what I tell myself as I stumble home Derelict across the street in the garbage bin Looks like he's found something neat judging by his grin Such a long long way to go, hope I get there soon Wish I could jump a great height and land in my front room
Whoa-oh-oh-Whoa-oh-oh
Wake up in the morning make sure I'm still alive Percolate the coffee opens up my eyes Hear the cricket calling switch on the TV Sit and stare for hours and cheer Dennis Lillee
Whoa-oh-oh-Whoa-oh-oh
Through the de-restriction zone we pass a long wide load Laugh at the reflections of cat's eyes on the road Freeways hypnotize me, up up and away Hope we make it home tonight Be that as it may
Dr. Heckyll works late at the laboratory Where things are not as they seem Dr. Heckyll wishes nothing more desperately Than to fulfill all of his dreams Letting loose with a scream in the dead of night As he's breaking new ground Trying his best to unlock all the secrets But he's not sure what he's found Dr. Heckyll is his own little guinea pig 'Cos they all think he's mad Sets his sights on the search of a lifetime And he's never, never sad
Whoa oh, it's off to work he goes In the name of science and all its wonders
This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive They are a person who feels good to be alive This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive Believes the underdog will eventually survive
Not long now till the ultimate experiment He's breaking all the rules He wants to cure all matter of imbalance In this world of fools He locks the door and he looks around nervously He knows there's no one there He drinks it down and waits for some reaction To all his work and care
Hey, hey he fumbles for what to say He loves the wo except for all the people
This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive They are a person who feels good to be alive This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive Believes the underdog will eventually survive
Whoa oh, it's out at night he goes He slips easily into conversation
Hey hey, he's cool in every way Sometimes he loves to sing that old black magic
This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive They are a person who feels good to be alive This is the story of Dr. Heckyll and Mr. Jive Believes the underdog will eventually survive
