1. _ The Tide Is High
Tide is high but i'm holding on.
I'm gonna be your number one.
Every girl wants you to be her man, but i'll wait, my dear, 'till it's my turn.
I'm not the kinda girl who gives up just like that, no, no, oh.
Tide is high but i'm holding on.
I'm gonna be your number one.
Number one.
Number one.
It's not the things you do that tease and hurt me bad, but it's the way you do the things you do to me.
I'm not the kinda girl, no no.
No you're not, no you're not.
Like that, no, no, no, no.
The tide is high but i'm holding on.
I'm gonna be your number one.
Number one.
Number one.
Rasta!
Tide is high but i'm holding on.
Tide is high but i'm holding on.
Ah ha ahh ya ya ya!
Ah ha ooh ooh hoo hoo yoo hoo!
Tide is high!
Tide is high!
Holding on!
Holding on!

2. _ Call Me (debbie Does Dallas)
Cover me with kisses, baby.
Cover me with love.
Roll me in designer sheets.
I'll never get enough.
Call me.
Call me on the line.
Call me, call me any anytime.
Call me oh my love.
When you're ready we can share the wine.

3. _ Rapture (k-klassic Mix)
Toe to toe, dancing very close.
Body breathing almost comatose.
Wall to wall, people hypnotized.
And they're stepping lightly.
Hang each night, in rapture.
In rapture.
Back to back, sacroiliac.
Spineless movement and a wild attack.
Face to face, sightless solitude.
And it's finger popping.
Twenty four hour shopping in rapture.
Fab five freddy told me everybody's fly.
D.j. spinning, i said, "my, my."
Flash is fast, flash is cool.
Francois, c'est pas flashe non due.
And you don't stop, sure shot.
Go out to the parking lot.
And you get in your car and drive real far.
And you drive all night and then you see a light.
And it comes right down and it lands on the ground.
And out comes the man from mars.
And you try to run but he's got a gun.
And he shoots you dead and he eats your head.
And then you're in the man from mars.
You go out at night eating cars.
You eat cadillacs, lincolns too.
Mercurys and subaru.
And you don't stop.
You keep on eating cars.
Then when there's no more cars you go out at night
And eat up bars where the people meet.
Face to face.
Dance cheek to cheek.
One to one.
Man to man.
Dance toe to toe.
Don't move too slow 'cause the man from mars is through with cars.
He's eating bars.
Yeah, wall to wall.
Door to door.
Hall to hall.
He's gonna eat 'em all.
Rapture.
Be pure.
Man to man, body muscular.
Sismic decibel by the jugular.
Wall to wall tea time technology and a digital ladder.
No sign of bad luck in rapture.
In rapture.
In rapture.

4. _ Atomic (armand's Short Circuit Mix)
Uh huh.
Atomic.
Oh!
Tonight.
Fade away and radiate (108 bpm mix) (chris stein)
Ooh baby i hear how you spend night.
Time wrapped like candy in a blue blue.
Neon glow fade away.
And radiate fade.
Away radiate.
Ooh baby watchful lines.
Vibrate soft.
In brainwave time silver pictures.
Move so slow.
Golden tubes faintly glow.
Electric.
Faces seem to merge.
Hidden voices mock your words.
Fade away radiate.
Fade away.
And radiate.
The beams become my.
Dream my dream.
Is on the screen the.
Beams become my dream.
My dream is on.
The screen dusty.
Frames that still arrive.
Die in 1955.
Fade away and ra.
Diate fade away.
And radiate.
The beam becomes my.
Dream my dream.
Is on the screen.
Fade away and radiate.
Fade away.
And radiate fade away.
Radiate fade away radiate.

6. _ Dreaming
When i met you in the restaurant you could tell i was no debutante.
You asked me what's my pleasure, "a movie or a measure"?
I'll have a cup of tea and tell you of my dreaming.
Dreaming is free.
I don't want to live on charity.
Pleasure's real or is it fantasy?
Reel to reel is living rarity.
People stop and stare at me, we just walk on by; we just keep on dreaming.
Feet feet: walking a two mile.
Meet meet: meet me at the turnstile.
I never met him, i'll never forget him.
Dream dream: even for a little while.
Dream dream: filling up an idle hour.
Fade away, radiate.
I sit by and watch the river flow.
I sit by and watch the traffic go.
Imagine something of your very own; something you can have and hold.
I'd build a road in gold just to have some dreaming.
Dreaming is free.

7. _ Heart Of Glass
Once i had a love and it was a gas, soon turned out had a heart of glass.
Seemed like the real thing, only to find mucho mistrust.
Love's gone behind.
Once i had a love and it was divine.
Soon found out i was losing my mind.
It seemed like the real thing but i was so blind.
Mucho mistrust.
Love's gone behind.
In between "what i find is pleasing" and "i'm feeling fine", love is so confusing.
There's no peace of mind if i fear i'm losing you.
It's just no good, you teasing like you do.
Lost inside adorable illusion and i cannot hide.
I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside.
We coulda made it cruising, yeah.
Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light.
Once i had a love and it was a gas, soon turned out to be a pain in the ass.
Seemed like the real thing only to find mucho mistrust.
Love's gone behind.

9. _ One Way Or Another
One way or another, i'm gonna find ya.
I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha.
One way or another, i'm gonna win ya.
I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha.
One way or another, i'm gonna see ya.
I'm gonna meetcha, meetcha, meetcha, meetcha.
One day, maybe next week, i'm gonna meetcha.
I'm gonna meetcha, i'll meetcha.
I will drive past your house, and if the lights are all down i'll see who's around.
One way or another, i'm gonna find ya.
I'm gonna getcha, getcha, getcha, getcha.
One way or another, i'm gonna win ya.
I'll getcha, i'll getcha.
One way or another, i'm gonna see ya.
I'm gonna meetcha, meetcha, meetcha, meetcha.
One day, maybe next week, i'm gonna meetcha.
I'll meetcha, ah.
And if the lights are all out, i'll follow your bus downtown, see who's hangin' out.
One way or another i'm gonna lose ya.
I'm gonna give you the slip.
A slip of the lip, or another, i'm gonna lose ya.
I'm gonna trick ya, i'll trick ya.
One way or another i'm gonna lose ya.
I'm gonna trick ya, trick ya, trick ya, trick ya.
One way or another, i'm gonna lose ya.
I'm gonna give you the slip.
I'll walk down the mall, stand over by the wall, where i can see it all, find out who ya call.
Lead you to the supermarket, check out some specials and rat food.
Get lost in the crowd.
One way or another, i'm gonna getcha.
I'll getcha.
I'll getcha getcha getcha getcha.
Where i can see it all, find out who ya call.

10. _ Hanging On The Telephone
I'm in the phone booth, it's the one across the hall.
If you don't answer, i'll just ring it off the wall.
I know he's there, but i just had to call.
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.
I heard your mother, now she's going out the door.
Did she go to work or just go to the store?
All those things she said, i told you to ignore.
Oh why can't we talk again?
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.
It's good to hear your voice, you know it's been so long.
If i don't get your calls then everything goes wrong.
I want to tell you something you've known all along.
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.
I had to interrupt and stop this conversation.
Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation.
I'd like to talk when i can show you my affection.
Oh i can't control myself!
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone.
Hang up and run to me! oh!
