Standing by the roadside
Future in my hands Coat I'm wearing's blowing cold Turn my back to the wind Winter mist along the coast City lights closed down Your empty station there Freight line cuts the ground Freight line cuts the ground *Crystal light shining bright Shine on down for me Moon is even passing by Trying not to see Like a fool I hit that road Did my time at sea Life was only fooling me Oh despair, it bums my lungs Find it hard to breathe The hospital shut their gates I can't get me no peace Wicked people stand and scream Stumble the road Close my eyes, turn out the lights Haven't found a dream Haven't found a dream *Repeat x2 |

* Kid's gettin' tired of hangin' around
So cocksure, thingin' aloud Can't get it in when you can't get it out Sure ain't enough and there ain't no doubt You can't stop a train with just a smile Stop bein' a star only for a while Hole in my pocket and a hole in my arm And that's left when life's lost it's charm This could be for us just any other day So come on girl, we really got to get away It's the only chance you'll ever have to take Stayin' in this city will drive you insane Can't win or lose when there's little left to choose Now til next year it'll always be the same The black back streets an people who don't know your name Go with the wind if it'll only carry you away |

Have you ever had the time to see,
me and you could change to be Take a dream away with you live it now and you will see Found myself on an open road got no hand to show the way Upped and started walking on to a land seemed so far away After so long felt I was damned then I reached some gates and held a hand But came to the point of sing and say, laughing people led me in to stay Their happiness held me strong. I felt this is where I belong I don't want another day just wanna laugh live sing and say It's so strange I feel this way, it's so real, it's happening today, Stop still something burns my body falls I begin to turn Flying drifting falling down, I found myself beneath the ground, In a place that's strange to me, the earth is black and there's not a tree Well its so dark there's not a sound just the feeling of wanting to be found I must make haste to be gone, in this place I do not belong I thought I tried to move a foot, I just remained where I stood, And in the distance I heard aloud the shrill of blank deathly sound I tried, I tried, I tried to run, but every move I was where I begun, It's too late, shadows over me blind my eyes I cannot see All my strength all my love, someone help me please above, Death will surely take me down, I'll be doomed to live beneath the ground See your tomb, see you run, you fool, you fool your life has just begun I'm here to taunt and torment you I can make you do what I want you to Black it out and drag you down, all kinds of evil wear a crown Chase you rape you feast upon your hurt, lay your body in the dirt If I were a fool I'd believe it's true but I have no fear of what you can do See I'm free I can be just anyone that I want to be Leave me now get out of my way See your tomb, see your rock, who are you fooling life's just begun Here to taunt, to torment you I can make you do what I want you to, Knock it out drag you down, all kinds of people were aware of it now? Chase you rape you feast upon your hurt, lay your body in the dirt If I were a fool I'd believe its true but I have no fear of what you can do See I'm free so leave me alone I wanna go my way and be alone Get out of my sight, get out of my way I'm not through, and I'm on the run, you're the fool my life's not been done I'll taunt you and I'll torment you Have this way with a dream never leave me so it seems Life by night, life by day, the tale they tell will always stay Walk the earth, walk the sky, don't let all this time go by Hang on fast, don't let go or someone else will never know Ride a road along with me chase a dream we all can see Don't let bad, just see good it's all that just what you should No truth will ever come along shine so bright in your eyes No wide wonder will do that for you, just lock it fast, do what you got to do Shout it loud, shout out loud just live how you want to be Show yourself show yourself, live how you got to be (More instrumental, followed by a verse from Rudyard Kipling's "Gunga Din" taped backwards: "Though I've belted you and flayed you, by the living God that made you, you're a better man than I am, Gunga Din." and then, in ultra super-slo-mo, "yes we know its all be done before before before before before before") |

Take hold of the moonbeams, hang them around your neck Prince Kajuku´s coming feathers in his hair Tapping on his juju stick, take you down there Prince Kajuku holds you never let´s you go Feel his power around you when your weakness shows Take a starry circle hold it in your hand Never let Kajuku take [guide] you to his land Catch a falling star put it in your pocket Take hold of the moonbeams hang them around your neck Kajuku, Kajuku, walking down the street Tapping on his juju stick, take you down there |

This morning as I walked, I gazed out across my land
Lying there all still lying there upon the sand A big silver bird had planted itself into the ground And being the kind of person who isn´t very easily alarmed Decided to take a walk to see just what I could find Walked around the walls, tapping to find me a door Knocking on a window to see if I could find out more Big silver bird let me inside your plane Want to fly so high fly me high, away All of a sudden the door slid back and someone was there A strange kind of being spoke to me in my tongue "Step inside, we´ll take you away in our plane To leave this earth, never you will rule to complain" Stepping inside I fixed myself into a seat Holding on, Lord, I heard them engines start to beat Big silver bird let me inside your plane Want to fly so high, fly me high away |

It's another night out on the avenue
Looking for something, something that you knew And you're wondering where she is Now there's now there's no more rendezvous *you're left out here on this cold stark street With the sound of lovers as they tango and meet Their sweet surrender with a promise and a kiss Where's that girl, the one you miss Those ooh la la la girls in their skirts they go rushing by They look around and give you that come on With their dreamy dreamy eyes Then you never stop to count your mistakes That one blind moment with no give and take Is lost in every stranger's face you see If there's a loser that loser's me ** please put a little love back into my life Won't you please put a little love back into my life Every night's another night you keep looking back Trying to fill the spaces hours and the minutes and the missing gaps * repeat ** repeat Every shadow's like a ghost that comes and haunts you Angel of the night plays her tricks today it's true With every step, every step you see her slip away Not just today It's another night out on the avenue Looking for something, something that you knew * repeat ** repeat and fade |

You wake up in the morning
Look for a clue, something new Turn on the radio and it's as dead As the visions dying in your head And when you were young You had big ideas no hidden fears You had your heroes they were walkin' tall Now your devotion seems comical So now you got older And the world's got colder than it used to be Every day gets longer and turns into the darker night Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter 'cause you're history Couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right You played the game as children Didn't understand life's not so grand Love hurts you and you could feel the lonely, lonely lonely one Some people get it easy They got it made, so unafraid You'll be the fool and find the winner, he's gonna take it all So now you got older And the world's got colder than it used to be Every day gets longer and turns into the darker night Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter 'cause you're history I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right So now you got older And the world's got colder than it used to be Every day gets longer and turns into the darker night Hey you got older And the world's got colder than it used to be Every day gets longer and turns into the darker night Down in the gutter nothing seems to matter 'cause you're history I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right No, no, no, no I couldn't get it, I couldn't get it right |

Kids are cruising on the old shoreline
Goodbye-girls killing time Feel like soldiers we couldn't wait Running wild, rushing to our fate * we kept dreaming, kids are dreaming Sleeping rough out on brighton's beach A step from the law just out of reach ** we kept dreaming, dreaming me and you *** got a plan we couldn't blow Nobody cares, nobody knows Made a stand and played a show Nobody cares, nobody knows Hiding in the wrecks of burned out cars Found a compass on the promenade Gangs assemble in the old arcade By looking cool we thought we had it made * repeat We ran wildly against the tide Nothing much just our teenage pride ** repeat *** Repeat Down the alleys to the old stage door They heard the band coming through the floor Eric burdon and the animals played In our minds the impression's made ** repeat *** repeat and fade mixing ** and *** |

Two lovers in a desperate game
She holds him close but their love's in vain And the married man that you laid Goes back home to his own charade She puts her faith in every word he said Tender moments in a motel bed When you press the point he says we'll see But then walks to his mystery * so darling you tell me it's a wild world You gotta take a little pain and How long will love last that you can Never, never explain ** do you just Let it rain, let it rain Don't stop those tears falling again just Let it rain, let it rain Now you see that love's just a game In his arms time goes so fast But stolen love will never last You try to keep him though you know it's wrong This kind of love can only last so long * repeat ** repeat * repeat ** repeat & fade |

Sarah has her dreams and makes her plans
To get what she wants when she can A little bit of heaven was all she asked for In those silent moments deep in the night She'd find herself make it feel all right Hungers for the bright life and something more With her young heart so gently beating A secret rendezvous lovers meeting Out in the night, out in the night night night night Played on the radio, heard on the news Baby's gone lost they found her shoes You can turn out the light You better turn out the light You go walking on the wild side Learn how to run 'cause you can't hide Better steel yourself away Another page, another day In your lonely heart Beating out in the dark Lonely heart And beneath the lights and rock 'n' roll band Electric guitars, one night stands Are you giving away, giving away With hungry and oh so desperate eyes The souls who get hurt believe in their lies You only betray, only betray Yeah, yeah, yeah And now you cry yourself to sleep Against the odds you wanted to beat You never say no, never say no no no no Left with the promises that you swore The price you pay is the love you tore Now where did it go, where did it go You go walking on the wild side Learn how to run 'cause you can't hide Better steel yourself away Another page, another day In your lonely heart Beating out in the dark Lonely heart |

Skulking in the mean streets whispering in the halls
Redlight bandits on the corner give no quarter calls Infectious garbage fills the streets and in their eyes you know A thin blue line bends and breaks stop the overflow Fan the flames of the city's heat In dark corners that you never seen Desperation when the trouble flares Alarm guns ring, running scared And you're long gone, down in this hell Long gone down in this hell So baby won't you hold me tight Let your softness fill my night We've got a dream don't let it slip away In your eyes I can see the fear This town never sheds a tear We're gonna be out someday People looking for a holy one Some kind of hero or a prophet to come Visionaries dance the night away There's no tomorrow living for today But you're long gone down, in this hell Long gone down in this hell I saw the stars come out tonight so lonely and immune Summer rain kissed the streets that bleed like open wounds Patrol cars sweep the avenues down on forty eighth While faces in dark doorways wait to arouse the hate Fan the flames of the city's heat In dark corners that you never seen Desperation when the trouble flares Well I'm gonna scream, running scared And you're long gone, down in this hell Long gone down in this hell So baby won't you hold me tight Let your softness fill my night We've got a dream don't let it slip away In your eyes I can see the fear This town never sheds a tear We're gonna be walking away Baby better walk away Baby better walk away We'll be busting out someday |

All the boys hangin' out down in the parking lot
The night riders giving all they've got While the girls look so good at looking bad Out strutting dressed in the latest fad Valentino looks for something new Escapes for the night and waits his cue And I love the way they make their move Yes I love the way they're makin' moves Kids clothe armour hands like battle dress Got his act down, some kind of feeling And tonight they're gonna make the run Downtown, call the garrison From the back roads through the alleys it screams You gotta get a feeling mean, mean, mean And I love the way they make their move Yes I love the way they're makin' moves Rockface going nowhere fast Some gonna make it, some don't even last Just one night they don't give a damn I'm the star, hides another sham There's no silver and there's no gold It's just that one shot before they're old And I love the way they make their move Yes I love the way they're makin' moves Ooooh I love, I just love the way they're makin' moves Makin' moves Makin' moves |

Hey babe what we gonna do
No look behind me glances Straight time this time We'll take our chances Darling it's been so long Every lonely hour Laud the sinner pulls the trigger And the world turns sour Whisper on the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence Whisper on the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence Try to pick up the pieces Maybe move away But the lifer Was only yesterday Down the halls of justice The echoes never fade Notches on my gun Another debt is paid Whisper on the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence Whisper on the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence |

Terri every time we talk we just disagree
Every chance we had is passing by The simple things you say all drift away into the night So don't let me know what I can't see * Terri is it over again Lost in love Everybody laughing at me With eyes like a child You smile when you hit the tide Holding me captive For the world to see Every now and then I'd see that wild look in your eyes It's in all the long shots that we tried We used to hold on tight, run for the night How far we'd go we couldn't see * repeat Every day goes by we get further and further away Conversations end with nothing much to say Maybe we've made a mistake it's too late we'll never know We can't change it girl 'cause I just have to go * repeat On these lonely nights I reach out for your love This empty room feels cold and bare Then I'll try the phone and swallow my pride It's no good we've tried and tried * repeat |

Cross the porch stars were bright Past my room and into yours Sliding locks and chaining doors * you'll get love My kind of love (you'll get love) / (I'll give you love) The love you give to me (yeah) I see the men that come and go Through a hole that doesn't show Every day we pass in the hall I'm like a picture on the wall * repeat I hear your giggles and little sighs Close my eyes and fantasize But as you're sleeping a room away In the dark you hear the jackal play * repeat |

She told me her story, hoped I would understand
And I listened closely, as anybody can But there's a distant look that's in her eyes And as the nights grow longer, alone in bed she cries My baby met a man on her first date He stole her heart an' sealed her fate And she thought she'd found a friend for life He wanted her but not to be a wife La la li, la la li A fool for love never wonders why La la li, la la li She hangs on in but it's just another goodbye (Now) every day is like another day She lets it all drift on away An' every man is like another man They come and go but she never can And from sixteen to thirty-two She lost her loves and her good looks too It's so sad to see at first hand From a teenage beauty to a one night stand La la li, la la li A fool for love never wonders why La la li, la la li She hangs on in but it's just another goodbye (Now) every day is like another day She lets it all drift on away An' every man is like another man They come and go but she never can (Now) every day is like another day She lets it all drift on away An' every man is like another man They come and go but she never can - and fade |

It's another night stuck in here, with the tv on
As john wayne holds the alamo, I'm wonderin' where you've gone I just sit and wait, hope it's not too late Say there's something left to prove it to you Outside this house nothing's changed Our street looks just the same The things you left I'll keep that way Till we're together again When I just start to slip, yes il lose my grip I can't believe you're gone, it's really true Blue, blue, oh baby where are you Blue, blue, tell me know, it's not true There's nothing romantic in a tear-drawn goodbye Oh baby say it's a lie Panic sets in, I'm an irrational man If I can't have you nobody can * repeat Last night, I heard you talkin Oh so close, whispering in my ear All night, till the morning I kept wishing I could feel you near When we stood naked at the 4th of july Moon shot took off, lit up the sky The red sea was parting for the second time The world at my feet, you were mine, it was.. Lovin' you was so easy baby Holdin' on when our luck was down Sweetest thing that I ever, ever heard was "i'll always, always be around" Blue, blue, oh baby, where are you Blue, blue, gettin' desperate, desperate for you |
