unknown

Running from the nightmare
In the middle of the road
Hell's no place for sleeping
In a world beyond control
Caught in the headlights
Coming after you
When i woke up this morning
I had to do what i gotta do
Blast me to heaven for loving you
Blast me to heaven for loving you

Speed
Give me what i need
Yeah
White lightning
Let's speed, on speed
On wheels, on wheels
Speed
Oh, let it bleed
Yeah
Greased lightning
Let's speed, on speed
On wheels, on wheels

I've seen a train full of pain
On the edge of overload
We're in heaven, baby
You are gonna implode
I've got these crazy feelings
That i can't explain
I've gotta save you baby
Or i'll die in vain
Blast me to heaven for loving you
I said blast me to heaven just for loving you

I said speed
Give me what i need
Yeah
White lightning
Let's speed, on speed
On wheels, on wheels
Speed
Oh, let it bleed
Yeah
Greased lightning
Let's speed, on speed
On wheels, on wheels

Blast me to heaven for loving you
I said blast me to heaven for loving you

Now i'm rushing on the run, yeah
I wanna have me some fun
I'll speed
Give me what i need
Oh, set me free
Let's speed
On wheels, on wheels, on wheels
Said speed
Oh, let it bleed
Yeah
White lightning
Let's speed, on speed
On wheels, on wheels
Com'on

I said speed, speed
Give me what i need
I said speed, speed
Give me what i need
Alright

It's the season of the dark horse
The ocean of night
It's the angel of mercy
Leaving you behind
In this moment
You ache for the cure
You're pleading
Save me
Give me some more

There's no shelter tonight
Escape from the pain
There is nothing
No end to this game

You're so wicked
Evil and cruel
It won't save you
Save me
From what i'm gonna do

You're just a number
You're just a victim
A dead man walking
Buried alive

Hold out for a better hand
Wait for better days
You can feel it coming
The fury of my rage
My vengeance
Will rain down on you
There's no mercy
Have mercy
In what i'm gonna do

All around the world
I said listen, listen what i say now
For every boy and girl
Wanna hear some happy baby talk

Everything is mine
And mine, mine because i choose you
I lose it everytime
Just to hear some of your baby talk

Searching for some happy baby talk

Red hot, don't stop
Babe, baby, babe, baby, baby, baby

You're to to to too personal
You're to to to too personal

Well you keep talking about love -
Well what do you want
We have fun alright - so what do you want
The idea of fate its all in the mind
We are the ones who control our own time

Look don't get me wrong
But if you keep on i'm gonna go

You're to to to too personal
You're to to to too personal

You say everyone's lonely and insecure
All because of living in hate and fear
Well if love is possession baby you better change
No one's gonna keep me in those chains

Look don't get me wrong
But if you keep on i'm gonna go

Forget your personal problems
Think about somebody else
I'm gonna think about them - right now

You're to to to too personal
You're to to to too personal
You're to to to too personal
You're to to to too personal

Jailhouse rocker roots training down
In memphis
Liverpool johnny rocks out round paul's place
Seconds away as the rhythm comes down
King faces king in the ring for the crown
King rocker king rocker - rock rock rock
King kong
King kong

Elvis from the body shakes from the hipbone
Quarry st. kids in leather take hamburg
Creole was sharp but his guitar was acoustic
Go johnny go use your electric
-crazy man crazy
King rocker king rocker - rock rock rock
King kong
King kong
King rocker king rocker - rock rock rock
King kong

Round three - ali buzzin like a bee,
Elvis in the corner and you won't catch me
Round four - johnny lookin' poor,
Gotta find a hit gotta even up the score
Round five - some jive, elvis took a dive
Waitin' for the towel more dead than alive
Round six, seven, eight, nine, -

Ref stops the fight with the men on forty two
For a rematch in heaven
If they ever come through
[gotta] see this fight right thru 'til the last round
Follow the man
Whose puttin' out the boss sound
Of king rocker king rocker -rock rock rock
King kong

Day by day - look what the papers say
Day by day - look what the papers say
Stranded in the jungle
Trapped inside the tube
[you] hate your next door neighbour
Cos he's got more than you
Going round and round / day by day
On the cirlce line
Round and round

Day by day - it's all work no play
Day by day - it's all work no play
Living for inflation
I know i never win
Just to earn a living
They keep me locked in

Day by day - who cares anyway
Day by day - who cares anyway
I feel like a robot
On the production line
Ain't got no tomorrow
On the circle line
Going round and round / day by day
On the circle line
Round and round
Round and round
Day by day
Day by day

You and me have a passion
Escaping the days that go by
Just our desire
Patronise a secret painted salon
Let us talk about the live
Where the skins aren't out

But it was o.k.
It was all right
We were, we were
The untouchables tonight
The untouchables tonight

You and me while we're waitin' on a corner
Share a packet of two
With all the fools to savour
We laughed and cried, split our sides
At what they told us

But it will be o.k.
It will be all right
We were, we were
The untouchables tonight
The untouchables tonight

I've coloured my life blue and
Ice diamonds are the line of my life
But time strikes against us
It takes some of us home
Will pick our souls, turn up in you
While it sets me free

All things young and blue, what'll i do
When you're gone too

(scat)

It'll be o.k.
It'll be all right
If i believe tonight
If i believe we're right
And then we'll be, we'll be
The untouchables tonight
The untouchables tonight
The untouchables tonight
The untouchables tonight
The untouchables tonight

The first[last?] lot make a few mistakes
They didn't die young, they got big waists
We got let down at the back of earls court
[+and?] we sware that night we'd never get caught
Cos we were smarter than they were (they were)

We started out with guitars and hate
With our rooms in the clouds we could hardly wait
Our legs apart, our amps up high
The stage caught fire (then?) the charts blew up
And we play more than they do (they do)

Promises promises
Do you remember the promises promises - i do-
Do you remember the promises promises - i do-

We made our shirts with sprays and knives
Then we saved up for weeks for malcolm's strides
Our hair was short we said what we thought
We'd never be scared [we'd] never be bought
Never sell out like they did - they did

Promises promises
Do you remember the promises promises - i do-
Do you remember the promises promises - i do-

Soon you'll get your gear form marks and sparks
Punk'll take over top of the pops
Think you're having a real cool time?
Watch out kid you're next in line - oh yeah

Do you remember the promises promises - i do-
Do you remember the promises promises - i do-

Where were you in '75
When there weren't no gigs and we were jive
(promises promises promises remember)
No one gave a shit for our rock'n'roll dream
R men laughed re-release the cream
(promises promises promises remember)
And they thought we were stupid
And they thought we were stupid
And we promised we'd get back get back
Do you remember the promises promises
Do you remember the promises promises
What i do, what i do, what i do, what
I do, i do, i do, what i do, what i do

Promises promises promises remember
Promises promises promises remember
Promises promises promises remember
Promises promises promises remember

Promises promises promises remember
Promises promises promises remember
Promises promises promises remember
Promises promises promises remember
Promises promises promises remember

They customised their gear and synchronised
(they)flame out in the streets with flame in their eyes
Guerilla operator ain't heard of cool
Check out any wall - one hundred punks rule
One hundred punks rule

A hundred punks run with london town
Down wardour street to the soho sound
Don't sleep all week only when they fall down

A hundred rumble boys and tumble girls
Protected by steel in a private world
Tomorrow's famous faces advertise today
And the studs on their back say
One hundred punks rule

A hundred punks run the loaded gun
They look so sharp they look like one
If you ain't got the look you'll never be one

A hundred punks run with total suss
A hundred good mates you know you can trust
There's never no bother and there's no fuss
Check out any wall - one hundred punks rule
One hundred punks rule

And jimmy's no.101 knows one day he'll be one
Watch him - watch him go!

A hundred punks run the leather army
I know whose by my side not at home with tv
Even when i'm down i hear them sing for me
Check out any wall - one hundred punks rule
One hundred punks rule

Check out any wall - one hundred punks rule
One hundred punks rule
Check out - one hundred punks rule o.k.

I know you've heard these things before
You get the same reply
But all these things are new to me
So i'm asking why?
Isn't it the truth you want to hear
Not lies and jealousy

From the heart
I can tell no lies
From the heart
I can tell no lies, lies, lies

I just want to give the feeling
Rock and roll gave to me
And to say what i believe in
In honesty
Isn't it the truth
You want to hear not lies and jealousy?

From the heart
I can tell no lies
From the heart
I can tell no lies, lies, lies

Like lennon said for me
I believed in ray and keef
Like townshend said for me
Rock and roll made me free
From the heart
From the heart
From the heart
Rock and roll made me free
From the heart
From the heart
From the heart
No lies

(part 1)
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared

Kenny gets by on a fiddle almost every day
Chasing his childlike dream in an english town
Ambition like his street is paved in grey
Nothing made much sense anyway
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared

Kenny working the local teenage underground
Searching his pent up emotions
Getting nowhere fast
His anger saved from days of hanging around
Explodes in some dark battleground
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared

Kenny may think he's a king
But he wants a queen
Looking for real romance had it
With the backstreets
Tired of playing every game in the town
Waiting for the girl that he'd once seen
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared
Kenny silvers the boy who disappeared

(part 2)
Then one day he found her
While out cruisin' the high street
Knew this love at first sight
As they ran for the first bus
He was thinking of diamonds
While she held his hand
And rain didn't seem to matter
As they reached their promised land

Kenny silvers
Kenny silvers
Kenny silvers
Kenny silvers

But his past would always find him
And he'd have to move again
Well he'd think may be just one more job
Would help to ease the pain
On the run in some cold room
As shelter from the dark
They swore some day together
They'd rip this world apart

Kenny silvers
Kenny silvers
Kenny silvers
Kenny silvers

And though i never knew him
I know how he feels
And though i never knew him
I know how he feels

Kenny silvers
Kenny silvers
Kenny silvers
Kenny silvers

Yesterday by the paperstand i felt the power
Of another religion
Rebels with a cause came out of the sun
And spoke the only language they'd been given
Creepers tapping out the beat as i felt the heat
Man they sure looked neat
Well tonight for sure
You could feel the same as me
We didn't have to fight
On the other side of town
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound

In the day we use machines or brains
Cos we need hard cash for living
And later between tracks & raps with friends
We'll find some time for loving
Stratocasters straff the sky
As disco johnny hustles by
Man those feet can fly, high
Well tonight let's dance and risk romance
Baby let's take a chance
We'll make it in a single bound
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound

I feel it in the air and i know that you're there
We won't let you down
The phantoms of the underground
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound

Racing wild with the radios blasting
Out ready steady go
As we rip through the charts
Crashing like angles
At the end of rocks rainbow
Electricity runs in my blood like gods
Man if you could see it
By tonight for sure you'd be the same as me
A junkie needing more
Our feet burning up the ground
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound

Yeah we're burning up the ground
Where the rockabilly beat pounds
With the ska rhythm pressing down
Where the skinhead moon stomp pounds
Where the heavy metal comes down
When the punk rockers are round
Yeah you and i are found
Yeah you and i are found
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound
Running with the boss sound
