Phenomenom

OH MY
Well, I'm struttin' up and down
Tryin' to get my face in town
Wonderin' where they hang on, turn each time around
Look in your mirror just to see my face
Doing time baby it's no disgrace
Oh my, how the times are changed
Oh my, how the times are changed

Ladies get to dancin' but I move for real
Lookin' for the action, something you can feel
When you get to move me they look me in the eye
Doing time baby, it's no lie
*Oh my, how the times are changed
Oh my, how the times are changed

*repeat
*repeat

CRYSTAL LIGHT
Standin' by the roadside, views are in my hand
Coat I'm wearing's blowin cold
Turn my back to the wind
Winter mists along the coast
City lights close down
Your empty station there
Train line cuts the ground
Train line cuts the ground

*Crystal light shinin' bright
Shine on down for me
Good is even passin' by, dying not received
Like a fool I hit that road, took my time to see
Life was only foolin' there

Locust Berry burns my love, find it hard to breathe
The hospital shut their gates, I can't get me no peace
Weaker people stand and scream, stumble in the road
Close my eyes, turn off the lights
Timeless, found a dream, timeless found a dream

*repeat
*repeat

DOCTOR DOCTOR

Doctor doctor, please
Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor doctor, please oh, the mess I'm in
She walked up to me and really stole my heart
And then she started to take my body apart

*Livin' lovin' I'm on the run
So far away from you
Livin' lovin' I'm on the run
So far away from you

Doctor doctor, please
Oh I'm goin' fast
Doctor doctor, please, oh, I'm goin' fast
It's only just a moment
She's turning paranoid
That's not a situation for a nervous boy

**Doctor doctor, please
Oh, the mess I'm in
Doctor doctor, please oh, the mess I'm in
But you look so angry as I crawled across your floor
She's got the strength, and I can't take any more

*repeat

SPACE CHILD

Goin' through pages and lookin' down lines and lines
Space of your life is only passing you by
Space child ages as he turns and faces the lines
Then after laughter was caught in his throat as he died
Fly on homeward

Worlds are spinnin' by, makes clouds in your eyes and eyes
The space of your life is only passing you by

ROCK BOTTOM
Seventeen and natures queen,you all know what I mean
Twenty-one a lone one, you can see the number's run
Now you look so peaceful, lying there asleep
With the wings of god above you
Before the spirits meet
**Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom

Shallow earth is closin' in above her lamps in your street
Lucifer goes walkin' down for you to meet
Minutes pass so slowly by the hands on your clock
Heavens door don't open, when you can knock

**Repeat

With all the darkness closin' in
Will the light reveal your soul
Just one sweet kiss, on your clay cold lips
long, long sleep you'll never know
Where do we go, where do we go
Where do we go from here

*Repeat
**Repeat

TOO YOUNG TO KNOW

Well, I'm stuck out on this street
And I'm lookin' for some kinda "hey boy"
When somebody says to me boy
"She's too young to no"
*Well I didn't make your time
I never said you were mine
Don't you think it would show
I guess I'll have to teach you rock and roll

Met you outside school, made sure no one was lookin'
And your teacher looks at me, all his envy growin'
*Repeat

I said, "take it easy babe, you sure know what's showin
And I can't help myself without all your friends knowin'"

*Repeat
*Repeat
You got a long way to go

TIME ON MY HANDS

*Long long year I've sat in this place
Baby, baby, what's good I've had
When you don't know where I wanna go
Find a reason, love's left me cold

**I've got it, time on my hands
Been drinkin' with a sailor boy
Been tryin' hard to understand
Loves here in my hand

Left me hopin' the wild thoughts I had
My lost feelin' made me so sad
Tried so hard, smile on my face
Can't get it back again, back on with you

**Repeat
*Repeat
**Repeat

BUILT FOR COMFORT

Some folks built like this
Some folks built like that
Way you move you ain't talkin' back
I'm built for comfort, ain't built for speed
Got everything all you good girls need

*Don't need no diamond, don't need no gold
Got a lot of love, got a whole lot of soul
I'm built for comfort, ain't built for speed
But I got everything all you good girls need

*Repeat

LIPSTICK TRACES

Instrumental

QUEEN OF THE DEEP

Heaven knows why I'm left here in this place
With the sun up in my eyes
Symbols of the morning comin' on
With a love that's got too strong to hold
If I'd been so much wiser then
I would have known which path to choose
Heaven help the lucky one
Heaven help you

Heard the news come on the radio
About the laughing disaster plane (?)
I'd already heard before
Baby, two years ago

Soyuz 2 had just returned
Now it seemed just like a dream
'Cos I'd already seen it
On my TV screen

Now I can see all these conflicts goin' on
But you think, you can show some faith
Just likto you a stand in ovation
When I'm dead and gone

FORCE IT


LET IT ROLL

Cold wide sweet highway the place where we'd all go
Went out like a razor sharp and we'd all let it roll
Let it roll
Let it roll, let it go
Let it roll

She'd skid up, and we really let it down
Layin' it out, let it roll

When these wheels get rollin'
Let 'em roll right over you
The time will be sound and I'll always put it through
Let it roll, let it roll
Let it roll

Repeat


SHOOT SHOOT

Was a fast tough woman loved to play the clown
You won't do nothin' about it
Break a good boy's resistance down
You know she's got a pistol
Laid it down for real
She said shoot, shoot, shoot it boy
You gotta shoot it for me

Convinced me that she was worth it
Never knew I was her kill
And two 45's would do the trick and pay the bills

You know she's got a pistol
Laid it down on me
And she said shoot, shoot, shoot it boy
You gotta shoot it for me

I've really got to get a fast ride out of here
Gotta get a fast ride out of here
Gotta get a fast ride out of here
Gotta get a fast ride out of here now

Holing out in my hotel room police they finally come
And there's the prosecution, and my friends have palmed the gun



HIGH FLYER
High flyers, wheelin' birds
I'm so far out to sea
Ships are passing every night
Oh, all my boyish dreams

And your every melody
With the sea tides tossin' free
Never, never holdin' back
Rock and rollers drift by

Turn to summer, goes so fast
Seems I'll never see you
One weekend and a photograph
Oh, all my boyish dreams



LOVE LOST LOVE

Saturday night, all alone
Lookin' for some thrills
Try to catch the bands last song
Back stage pass really showin' out
Feel that's where I belong

Sittin' down, all the big stars at the bar
I really have a rock vocation
Momopemania, schizophrenia
Rise to any situation

Of old lost love, where will you go
When the show is over
Nobody wants to know

We need to feel something that's real
'Cause you're losin' from the start
So be careful with your heart

Repeat

Papa's in the next bed and they're dancing cheek to cheek
And I understand their hot wire conversation
Yes, you're pretty, who needs a pretty face
With a hot lips reputation

Repeat

OUT IN THE STREET

Lady loves to hang on
Lady liked a real intellectual
Sweet sister your still shaking
And your tragedy is never ending
Silver shoes you're wearing
Every window that you've ever stared in
Over my head, over my head

Sidewalks of the city
And every theater there you've ever played
Your comic book impersonations
Your wish for cinders embers to keep
Over my head, so it' all

Out in the street for just one more matinee
Yes, your vaudeville carries on
So put a smile in front your man can see
Yes, your vaudeville carries on

Repeat
Repeat


MOTHER MARY

Try to make some changes really on the line
Given your religion, never ever time
All the jokers laughing, queens upon the floor
Don't misunderstand it, baby needs some more

Lovin' up some ransom, weapon and a gun
Just your education, hard to understand
Will the teenage lesion make a mark on you
Make a big tome status, then we run them through

Mother Mary could you ever really feel the same
And would you try to understand a wild colonial boy

Repeat
Repeat

TOO MUCH OF NOTHING

I really tried my hardest just to make you understand
It feels like to a boy, when he don't feel like a man
But you gave me so much money
And you would not understand
I realize I hurt you, so I stay just as I am
But the whole world keeps on turnin'
Yes, the whole world keeps on turnin'
But the whole world keeps on turnin'
I just roll along

There's been too many mornings
And one too many years
Once went by the big ones who just can't take the pace
We found out the hard way
I hope you understand
That my life is just my head
And I had an overdose

Repeat

I used to try, I used to try
Used to cry, oh I used to cry

Repeat

DANCE YOUR LIFE AWAY

Give a dance band competition fox-trotting with my girl
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away
I hear razzle dazzle, the session is the trouble
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away

There I was on the floor and twenty partners left
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away
Feel so tired it must be a week
Nearly on my knees
Dance, dance, dance all night
Dance your life away

California, you always seem to have the sun
But I never really got near to it
And to turn hand to anything you know
Just to try it

Repeat
Repeat

THIS KID'SClique para ouvir

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

No Heavy Petting

NATURAL THING

Since you came from Memphis
You can look but please don't touch
Didn't like rock and rollers
Seemed a bit much too much

* Cause it's the natural thing feelin' the star
Natural blood starts to flow
Yeah, the natural thing, get up a star
Then she'll never let you go

Hey girl, now does it feel all right
Think I'm gettin' through
Don't you think the band's real tight
Wait til we start to move

** May sound funny but you gave it to me
I didn't even like it
May sound funny but you gave it to me
And now I got to live without it

I been down to Atlanta
Got to move my feet
Gettin' down before the last call
With every star she meets

* Repeat
** Repeat
* Repeat

Why'd you do it, why'd you do it


I'M A LOSER

Last train's eleven, it's now quarter past
Why're you tryin' to make the evenin' move so fast
I'm in real trouble but I can't go back home
They locked the doors and I'm left out alone

* You can come to my place and sleep on the couch
Lots of people do it and we won't leave you out
Hard times out on the street
Hard times, hard to beat

* The painted lies they all hand you
I'm a loser on the road
I'm a loser on the road, yeah

Houston station and it's cold as ice
All night specials, they move you on
But me and Ginger over there
We got this thing where we really take care


* Repeat
** Repeat
I'm a loser, I'm a loser
I'm a loser

CAN YOU ROLL HER

* Fast as light our kicks were burnin'
On the road a distant silent song
Hands upon my engines growin'
Steed breathin' out so strong
I can hold her, can you roll her

Riding like there's no tomorrow
Silent song sure is growin' stronger
Shadow reached a high note
And in the distance electric lights no longer
I can hold her, can you roll her
I can hold her, can you roll her
I can hold her, can you roll her

* Repeat

I can hold her, can you roll her
I can hold her, can you roll her
I can hold her, can You roll her
I can hold her, can you roll her

BELLADONNA

Oh Belladonna never knew the pain
Maybe I'm crazy, maybe it'll drive you insane
The open letter just carelessly placed
And you move in silence, the tea so delicately laced

* Out of reach, out of touch
How you've learned to hate so much

Came from passion, and you gave it a name
The fingers are poisoned like needles in the drivin' rain
So smile discreetly as you watch with such grace
Now I must slip away, but can you forget my face

*.Repeat
* Repeat

REASONS LOVE

New feel of you runnin' through my vein
Little bit of everything
You know that's what you said

* Try hard, try hard to reason, reasons love
Try hard, try hard to reason, reasons love

** Cause always you indulge
And parents try to get you out of these jams
You got that envy cause they won't understand


The social life you lead leaves nothin' to desire
Don't wanna see you bleed
But you came on like a liar

* Repeat
** Repeat


Wrecked myself to love you
All you want is more
One thing you're after
You just try and score

* Repeat
** Repeat


HIGHWAY LADY

Run down, low down, don't feel tired
Take no orders, don't get fired
I waste away cruisin' along

* Fighting blizzards, ragin' storms
Hope the wheels know I'm born to ramble o
Cruisin' along
But I stop, turn my head around
Sleep until tomorrow, in my arms
In my arms,
Highway lady, dream the big top high above
Highway lady, highways make you smile again
How she feels

Found my way to Spanish stairs
Small corruption, no one cares about tasty life
Cruisin' along

* Repeat
* Repeat

How she feels
Highway lady, highway lady
Highway lady, highway lady

ON WITH THE ACTION

Something going on at the corner of the block
It's the kids down there
They were startin' to rock
Hot black fever runnin every place
When the Greek kid pulled a knife and pushed it in his face
Some girl makes it with a lover in the dark
As the ambulance pulls away, she cries out more

* And it's all night long, all night long
On with the action
Lead the fastest loves alive
On with the action
If you can't run you can't survive
On with the action
Mama's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet


All the kids stand laughin'
They never had such fun
Then someone cuts a brown man who just can't run
And the queen that's been standin' behind the toilet door
His parents don't like boyfriends, call him a whore
But the minister's starin' with his bible in his hand
Was this Gods children, he didn't understand

* Repeat
* Repeat

A FOOL IN LOVE

People say I'm a lion at heart
But they don't know what I em
People say that I stand apart
But they just don't understand

* Every night when the darkness calls
I'll be there at your beck and call

** I'm a fool for you baby
I'm a fool right now
People say I'm a man of means
But my plans are full of holes
People say I'm a holy child
But I'm rich down to my soul
All I need is you close beside me
All I need is to satisfy

** Repeat

I'm a fool for you baby
I'm a fool in love


Every mornin' when the sun comes up
And all your dreams, they slip sway
I see your face and I understand
You're the only one, only one to make my day, yeah
Everybody say you ain't no good
But I won't believe it's true
They all say I ought to find someone,
But my heart belongs to you

* Repeat
** Repeat
** Repeat

MARTIAN LANDSCAPE

* Come from the land where the wheat is still wheat
Where the waters in the rivers is still water
In this land every man lends a hand when you need it
But your hands are full of life
So you can help yourself and feel it
It's been a long way from the red of my home
>From the valleys and the green plains never ending

Everyone knows that the sun in his land is stronger
And your hands are full of life
If you can only wait just longer

** So let it be a small haven big in Your heart
Don't let it turn into an ogre
Tryin' to climb and climb
and forget this place where
I can still find time
To sing in rhyme

*** Martian landscape.
I'll learn to lie in your arms
Where all the freedom is mine and it comes
Martian landscape,
I'll turn my face to your sun
Where your horizon is mine and it comes

* Repeat
** Repeat
*** Repeat

Martian landscape
Martian landscape

TOO HOT TO HANDLE


Caught in the crossfire, warnin' fight
[Let's just make or break game]
Swept up by the road in waves of the night
Big chase for fame
I was too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
Yeah, I was too, too hot
Too hot to handle

Wink of an eye, the feelings run high
[The rock and roll malaise]
But I ain't no romance
[And I ain't no soul chance]
Won't get no quick change

And I'm too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
Yeah, I'm too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle

Sha la la la, roll you over
Turn you around and do it again
Sha la la la , keep on coming
Do it once but never the same



I'm in your town, won't fool around
[I'll make some at your step]
Just like the story says, these boys are bad
So keep out of shootin' range



JUST ANOTHER SUICIDE

Just a bad situation
Got me low, feelin' down
I'm wonderin' why
Caught me unawares
No one knows and no one cares
They put you down no matter how you try
Put the words together
Feelin' so strong
I can't last forever
I can't hold on, I can't hold on, no no
Somebody, someone is tearin' my whole inside
Somebody, someone is takin' me for a ride
Just a little bit of madness
Do you no harm
Another night, it's a nervous shakedown
Lookin' for a place to hide
This could be your nervous breakdown
It's just another suicide
Just a cold realization, gotta go
I'm gonna turn and run away
Got me in a spin, I'm gonna lose and never win
They put you down no matter what you say
can't hold on, no no

Just a bad situation
I can feel it gettin' closer everyday
Say I'm out of line
[I'm takin' out of borrowed time]
What's the use of tryin' anyway

Somebody, someone is takin' me for a ride
Somebody, someone is tearin' my whole inside
Just a little bit of madness
Do you no harm

Another suicide, another suicide

Another suicide, another suicide

Another suicide, another suicide


TRY ME


Tell me why we're never more than strangers
Tell me why you never let it show
But when you're close to me
And whisper, I need you
In the cold mornin' light
Try me, oh take me for a little while
before it's over and you leave me with just a smile
Try me, oh let me be the one
You say it's over
But for me it had just begun

Tell me why we seem no more than strangers
Tell me why you feelin' never goes

LIGHTS OUT

Wind blows back and the [frightened Titan]
Runs all the way
Out to the [fun all night long]
Maybe now your time has come
From the back streets there's a rumblin'
Smell of anarchy
No more nice time, black boy shoe shines
High in the sky dreams
Lights out, lights out in London
Hold 'em tight 'til the end
Better now you know we'll never
Wait 'til tomorrow
Lights out, lights out in London
Hold 'em tight 'til the end
God knows when I'm comin' on [my] run
Heaven help those who help themselves
That's the way it goes
Bright lit thoughts once been taught
And now it shows
You keep comin', there's no runnin'
Tried a thousand times
Under your feet grass is growin'
Time we said goodbye

Lights out, lights out in London
Lights out, lights out in London


GETTIN' READY

You said that was that but this is it
How are you to make the pieces fit
Into a plan to start a new life
Friends pat your back, then stab you with a knife
I must be blind
I'm gettin' ready to redefine
No [loose connections] as it feels right
I'm gettin ready to hit the [line]
Can you fee me
Inside and out, I'm just waiting for you
[Cuz] it's alright
Now I know just what I want to do
Repeat

When a day breaks, turns you around
And your world upside down
And the visions fade
Rights and wrongs and just where you've gone

[Pickin' up] is such an awful drag
And I could lose my mind
And every time that I turned around
I never knew if I could really find you


ALONE AGAIN OR


Yeah, said it's alright, I won't forget
All the times I've waited patiently for you
And you do just what you choose to do
And I will be alone again tonight, my dear
Yeah, I heard a funny thing somebody said to me
You know that I could be in love with almost anyone
I think that people are the greatest fun
And I will be alone again tonight my dear

ELECTRIC PHASE

On the wires I can hear you comin'
With a rush and a strummin'
This electric phase ain't no teenage craze
In your house a phone is ringin'
Just a hot touch that keeps lingerin'
You said loving's easy only if you please
All I need is communication
Not a line on your reputation
I don't want a handshake
There ain't no big mistake


There's no illusion in this wild confusion
Who knows I'm crazy, no chance of maybe
I'd like to know you better
But I"m goin' down so fast
Help me now to feel it, I just can't conceal it
Meantime I've got to show you how it's really got to be
Just let me be alone, left with your darlin' tone




LOVE TO LOVE

Oh it's been too many times and I can't go back
Night bars, guitars, rundown motels like shacks
What it mounts up to I don't want it at all
Lost you and I want you today
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
Misty green and blue
Love to love to love you
To be something, to be near you
Don't say that youll never know
Love to love to love you

[INSTRUMENTAL]

Half the time it could seem funny
The other half is just too sad
This west bound moon's only rise and fall
Lost you and I want you today

To be something, to be near you
I don't know where I'm goin' to
I've tried and I need you to stay

[INSTRUMENTAL]
