There's a cry that is heard in the city
From vivian at pentecost lane
A shriekin' and dancing till 4 a.m.
Another night of muscles and pain
I love you despite your convictions
That god never laughs at my jokes

I'm a young man at odds with the bible
But i don't pretend faith never works
When we're down on our knees
Prayin' at the bus stop

Now jesus he came in a vision
And offered you redemption from sin
I'm not sayin' that i don't believe you
But are you sure that it really was him
I've been told that it couldn've been blue cheese
Or the meal that we ate down the road

I'm a young man at odds with the bible
But i don't pretend faith never works
When we're down on our knees
Prayin' at the bus stop

How yeah

I'm going home
I've been gone much too long
She said she missed me
Since i been gone
I'll be back soon
Ain't no doubt
'cause she said she wanted my loving, my loving

No holding back i'm going home
No holding back i'm going home
I'm going stateside with my convictions
No holding back i'm going home
No holding back i'm going home
I'm going stateside with my convictions

I said i'm coming home soon
I don't know when
It i'll be sometime soon
Sooner than
I thought i'd be
I thought i'd be
I thought i'd be stateside sooner or later

Marilyn inflatables home on the range
Where the living is easy on a horse with no name
Kennedy convertibles home on the range
Where the suffering comes easy on a blonde with no brain

I'm going stateside
I'm going stateside

I'm going home
It's been so long
She said she missed me
And all the fun we've had
I think it be the best way
She said she missed me
Every, every way, so

No holding back i'm going home
No holding back i'm going home
I'm going stateside with my convictions
No holding back i'm going home
No holding back i'm going home
I'm going stateside with my convictions

I've been gone so long
I've been gone, i've been gone
I'm missing you

Marilyn inflatables home on the range
Where the living is easy on a horse with no name
Kennedy convertibles home on the range
Where the suffering comes easy on a ten dollar raise

I'm going stateside
I'm going stateside

Shine shine shine

Shine shine shine
Shine shine shine

Shine shine shine
Shine shine shine

Bleed like a crazed dad
These are the craze

Easy come come goto go back
In the valley of the dead man walks
How they drank from the jazz

Astral kestrel, fed into the featherfall
Fed him on a pencil carving you will never get

Shine shine shine
Bleed like crazed dad
These are the craze

Seek for a leather journey never stopped to think about
Hollywood king kong domino on the side

Street light levitated down stop the blue for 5 dollar gonna keep my domino on the side

Street light, looking right looking to the parlous parlours
Party on the dead put a net through his headache

Shine shine shine
Shine shine shine
Shine shine shine
Bleeeeed
Bleed like a crazed dad
These are the craze

Living on a movie all the shirley/charley films on film
Come together, party footnote on the footstone

Shine shine shine
Bleed like a crazed dad

Don't look back
Whatever it takes to save your life
I've believed i belonged to you for a long time
And my heart says no, no one but you

Like a rescue on a darkened street
Love walked into town
I was a victim of my own self-persecution
I'm a prisoner of love-but i'm coming up for air

Now don't be fooled by fools who promise you
The world and all that glitters more fool you

I'm such a hungry man that i beg you over and over and over and over
And i might take any highway to be there with you
Even the best men shiver in their beds
I'm loving you above everything i have
I'm a prisoner of love-just stay square
Like a sermon on a blues guitar
Love walked into town
I was drowning so slowly
One step in front of your shadow
I'm a prisoner of love but i'm coming up for air

Now don't be fooled by fools who promise you
The world and all that glitters more fool you

I smell the sickness sown in this city
It drives me to hide you, yeah, even deceive you
I'm so afraid for you that
I'll break any thug that maps out your passage to ruin
Even the best men shiver in their beds
I'm loving you above everything i have
I'm a prisoner of love
I'm a prisoner of love-just stay square
Take care take care
I'm a prisoner of love
Just stay square
Just stay square
Stay out the shooting gallery
Just stay square
I seen the best mans of my generation lay down in cemetary of clematry
Just take care
Just stay square
Just stay square
Don't look back
Beautiful soul
Don't look back
Beautiful soul

Whilst his mother's womb contained the growing baal
Even then the sky was waiting quiet and pale
Naked, young, immensely marvellous
Like baal loved it, when he came to us

That same sky remained with him in joy and care
Even when baal slept peaceful and unaware
At night a lilac sky, a drunken baal
Turning pious as the sky grows pale

So through hospital, cathedral, whiskey bar
Baal kept moving onwards and just let things go
When baal's tired, boys, baal cannot fall far
He will have his sky down there below

When the sinners congregate in shame together
Baal lay naked, revelling in their distress
Only sky, a sky that will go on forever
Formed a blanket for his nakedness

And that lusty girl, the world, who'll laughing yield
To the men who'll stand the pressure of her thighs
Sometimes gave him love-bites, such as can't be healed
Baal survived it, he just used his eyes

And when baal saw lots of corpses scattered round
He felt twice the thrill, despite the lack of room
"space enough" said baal, "then i'll thicken the ground
Space enough within this woman's womb"

Any vice for baal has got its useful side
It's the man who practices it, he can't abide
Vices have their point, once you see it as such
Stick to two for one will be too much

Slackness, softness are the sort of things to shun
Nothing could be harder than the quest for fun
Lots of strength is needed and experience too
Swollen bellies can embarrass you

Under gloomy stars and this poor veil of tears
Baal will graze a pasture till it disappears
Once it's been digested to the forest's teeth
Baal trod singing for a well earned sleep

Baal can spot the vultures in the stormy sky
As they wait up there to see if baal will die
Sometimes baal pretends he's dead, but vultures swoop
Baal in silence dines on vulture-soup

When the dark womb drags him down to its prize
What's the world still mean to baal, he's overfed
So much sky is lurking still behind his eyes
He'll just have enough sky when he's dead

Once the earth's dark womb engulfed the rotting baal
Even then the sky was up there, quiet and pale
Naked, young, immensely marvellous
Like baal loved it when he lived with us

So long child, i'm on my way
And after all is done, after all is done
Don't be down, it's all in the past
Though you may be afraid

So long child, it's awful dark
And i've never felt the sun
I dread to think of when
When the wind blows
When the wind blows
When the wind blows
When the wind blows

Life burns a savage wound, angry and wrong
Trusting a twisted word, you'll run, run away
You'll take him home
You'll spit and taunt him
But they won't believe you
No matter what you'll say

So long child, it's awful dark
I never felt the sun
I dread to think of when
When the wind blows
When the wind blows
When the wind blows
When the wind blows

She's just been to russia and they're dying their faces
They're dying over there

A pretty pink rose

That r'n'r lady takes a space-ship ride she's out of this world

A pretty pink rose

And we're living for you my love, we're living for you
And we're dying for you my love
Pretty pink rose

She tore down paris on the tall of thom paine
But the left wings broken the right insane

A pretty pink rose

Have a nice day, it's a killer, turn a cheek
It's a christian code

A pretty pink rose

And we're living for you my love, we're living for you
And we're dying for you my love

Pretty pink rose

She's the poor mans gold she's the anarchist crucible
Flying in the face of the despot cannible

She's a pretty pink rose

Never let it rain, never let it rain on the heart of the pretty pink rose

Pretty pink rose

And we're living for you my love, we're living for you
And we're dying for you my love, pretty pink rose

Get me thru the pain, thru the pain of the thorn on the pretty pink rose

Never let it rain, never rain never rain, the pretty pink rose

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart, of the pretty pink rose

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart, of the pretty pink rose

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart,, of the pretty pink rose

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart

I saw him by the dj
The way he danced was cool
They said i stood no chance
They called me little fool
Well here i am before you
And all your friends can see
You roasting like a turkey
It's just this flame in me

And no one can burn like me

I am a laser
Burning through your eyes
And i know what kind of man you are
And i long to hold you tight
I am a laser
Knowing right from wrong
And i know what kind of heart you have
A heart so big and strong

I dreamed how much i'd lay on you
Sitting by your side
Driving in my dusenburgh
Going for a ride
I'm going to turn my beam on
If only for an hour
You know i switch the heat on
When you feel my golden shower

And no one can burn like me

I am a laser
Burning through your eyes
And i know what kind of man you are
And i long to hold you tight
I am a laser
Knowing right from wrong
And i know what kind of heart you have
A heart so big and strong

I know what the boys call me
They think i'm black barbarella
But only one beam do i have
And that's this heartbeat of mine

I am a laser
Burning through your eyes
And i know what kind of man you are
And i long to hold you tight
I am a laser
Knowing right from wrong
And i know what kind of heart you have
A heart so big and strong

I was a stranger in the city
Out of town where the people i knew
I had the feeling of self-pity
What to do? what to do? what to do?
The outlook was decidedly blue
But as i walked through the foggy streets alone
It turned out to be the luckiest day i've ever known
A foggy day in a london town
Had me low and had me down
I viewed the morning with alarm
The british museum had lost its charm
How long, i wondered, could this thing last?
But the age of miracles had'nt passed
For suddenly i saw you there
And through foggy london town the sun was shining everywhere

Just the twinkling lights of heaven
Two reflections on the sparkling water
Hand in hand with love uh-huh

I love the cheap things that you say

You belong in rock n'roll
You belong in rock n'roll
You belong in rock n'roll

Well so do i
I love how she moves me
It makes me feel alright alright alright alright

I'm a hurt i'm a hurt i'm hurting
I'm a man with a beat in my pocket
I'm going down to the rhytm of love
I love the bad luck that you bring

You belong in rock n'roll
You belong in rock n'roll
You belong in rock n'roll

Well so do i
Alone on the mean streets
It makes me feel on fire on fire on fire on fire on fire . . . on fire on fire on fire on fire

I love the cheap street in your walk ah ha
You belong in rock'n'roll
You belong in rock'n'roll

Well so do i
I love how she moves me
It makes me feel alright alright alright alright . . .

Still i keep my love for you
No place to hide no way to fall
Nowhere to lie no world so wide
I'm sick and tired of telling you
Don't let me down and down and down
Don't let me down and down and down

I know there's something in the wind
That crazy balence of my mind
What kind of fool are you and i?
Scared to death and tell me why
I'm sick and tired of telling you
Don't let me down and down and down
Don't let me down and down and down

Still i keep my love for you

You made a date with destiny
You jog-jog in my memory
You haunt in mind no fade away
I'm sick and tired of telling you
Don't let me down and down and down
Don't let me down and down and down
Don't let me down and down and down
I'm sick and tired of telling you

Still i keep my love for you
No place to hide, no way to fall
Nowhere to lie no world so wide
I'm sick and tired of telling you
Don't let me down and down and down
Don't let me down and down and down
Still i keep my love for you
Don't let me down and down and down
I'm sick and tired of telling you
Don't let me down
Don't don't let me down
Don't let me down
Nowhere to hide
No place to go
Still i keep my love for you
Still i keep my love for you
Oh there's no place to hide
No where to go

Now we can talk in confidence
Did you guess that we've been done wrong
Lies jumped the queue to be first in line
Such a shameless design

He thinks he's well screened from the man at the top
It's a shame that his children disagree
They cooly decide to sell him down the line
Daddy's brainwashing time

He's a dodo, no no didn't hear it from me
He's a dodo, no no didn't hear it from me

She's quite enthralled with the childhood of yore
When a unit was a figure not a she
When lovers chose each other now the perk's are due
Another memo to screw

She's a dodo, no no didn't hear it from me
She's a dodo, no no didn't hear it from me

Can you wipe your nose my child without them stlotting in your file a photograph
Can you sleep alone at night wake to find the scorching light of neighbour jim
He's come to turn you in

Another dodo, no no, didn't hear it from me
Another dodo, no no, didn't hear it from me
Another do, do
Didn't hear it from me

Huu huuuu
Huu huuuu
Huu huuuu
Huu huuuu
Huu huuuu

The last days were the meanest
Leanest days of our lives
You threw me the pieces
I started the fire
One thing led to a dead end
One shot put her away hey-hey

Look out on a green world
Windows and wives
No bedroom to run to
No miracle jive - no conversation

Then nothing meant nothing
Ten dollars tore us apart
On thing led to a dead end
One shot put her away

One thing nothing meant nothing
Ten dollars tore us apart
On thing led to a dead end
One shot put her away

The last days were the meanest
Leanest days of our lives
One thing led to a dead end
One shot put her away

Look out on a dream world
Windows and wifes
No bedroom to run too
No woman that i
No conversation

Hot love is the dearest
No money can buy
She burnt like a spitfire
One shot put her away

One shot put her away hey hey

One shot put her away

Ah ha ha

Ah ha ha ha

Ah ha ha

Ah ha ha ha

Ah ha ha

Ah ha haaaa

Ah ha ha

Ah ha ha ha

Ah ha ha

Ah ha ha ha

Ah ha ha

One shot put her away

Living in lies by the railway line
Pushing the hair from my eyes
Elvis is english and climbs the hills
Can't tell the bullshit from the lies
Screaming along in south london
Vicious but ready to learn
Sometimes i fear that the whole world is queer
Sometimes but always in vain

So i'll wait until we're sane
Wait until we're blessed and all the same
Full of blood, loving life and all it's got to give
Englishmen going insane
Down on my knees in suburbia
Down on myself in every way

With great expectations i change all my clothes
Mustn't crumble at silver and gold
Screaming above central london
Never born, so i'll never get old

So i'll wait until we're sane
Wait until we're blessed and all the same
Full of blood, loving life and all it's got to give
Englishmen going insane
Down on my knees in suburbia
Down on myself in every way

Day after
Day after
Day
Day after
Zane, zane, zane
Ouvre le chien
Day after

Day after
Zane, zane, zane
Ouvre le chien

Come on strong girl, lay the heavy trick on me
The church of man, love, is such a holy place to be
Make me baby, make me know you really care
Make me jump into the air

Keep your 'lectric eye on me babe
Put your ray gun to my head
Press your space face close to mine, love
Freak out in a moonage daydream oh yeah!

Alright ah
Come on you ?
Far out

Keep your mouth shut, but listen to the world inside
Keep your head on, but open up your eyes real wide
Keep the change strong, let the things you torn aside
You messing any road to high

Keep your 'lectric eye on me babe
Put your ray gun to my head
Press your space face close to mine, love
Freak out in a moonage daydream oh yeah!

Keep your 'lectric eye on me babe
Put your ray gun to my head
Press your space face close to mine, love
Freak out in a moonage daydream oh yeah!

Take it out take it out
Oh
Oh
Ready

Moi, je souhaiterais que tu nages
Comme les dophins, les dophins savent nager
Bien que rien nous gardera ensemble
Nous les vaincrons, les vaicrons

Julie
Oh
And i know

Like a mirror, sunday morning
When the dark clouds hung above
I saw you kneeling 'neath a garden
I saw the grim and stood above

What kind of meaning in a gun shot
It doesn't matter what they say
I never felt i aimed at no one
And who's gonna take the gun away

Julie
Pretend for me
That i'm someone in your life

Julie
I'm yours till the end
All the days and memories

I'm not a man of single reason
It's in every single man
This beat of jealous retribution
And every spurned heart makes its plan

Well, i know that you really loved him
And i know that if there's a god above
Through million times we'll remember
How the trail slips away

Julie
Pretend for me
Even only for a while

Julie
My soul is on the line
All the days and memories

Julie
Remember me
All the days of your life

Julie
I'm lost over you
Passion always ends this way
End this way

I, i will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can beat them, just for one day
We can be heroes, just for one day

And you, you can be mean
And i, i'll drink all the time
'cause we're lovers, and that is a fact
Yes we're lovers, and that is that

Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time, just for one day
We can be heroes, for ever and ever
What d'you say?

Du
Koenntest du schwimmen
Wie delphine
Delphine es tun
Niemand gibt uns eine chance
Doch wir koennen siegen
Fuer immer und immer
Und wir sind dann helden
Fuer einen tag

Ich
Ich bin dann koenig
Und du
Du koenigin
Obwohl sie
Unschlagbar scheinen
Werden wir helden
Fur einen tag
Wir sind dann wir
An diesem tag

Ich
Ich glaubbte zu traeumen (zu traeumen)
Die mauer
Im ruecken war kalt (so kalt)
Schuesse reissen die luft (reissen die luft)
Doch wir kuessen
Als ob nichts geschieht (nichts geschieht)
Und die scham fiel auf ihre seite
O, wir koennen sie schlagen
Fuer alle zeiten
Dann sind wir helden
Nur diesen tag
Dann sind wir helden
Dann sind wir helden
Dann sind wir helden
Nur diesen tag

Dann sind wir helden
We're nothing
And nothing will help us
Maybe we're lying
Then you better not stay
But we could be safer
Just for one day
Oh oh oh oh

Sickened by sun, with rainstorms lashing him rotten
A looted wreath crowning his tangled hair
Every moment of his youth apart from its dream was forgotten
Gone the roof overhead, but the sky was always there

Oh you, who are flung out, alike from heaven and from hades
You murderers who've been so bitterly repaid
Why did you part from the mothers who nursed you as babies
It was peaceful and you slept and there you stayed

Still he explores and rakes the absinthe green oceans
Though his mother has given him up for lost
Grinning and cursing with a few odd tears of contrition
Always in search of that land where life seems best

Loafing through hells and flocked through paradises
Calm and grinning, with a vanishing face
At times he still dreams of a small field he recognises
With a blue sky overhead and nothing else

Instrumental

It was a day in that blue month september
Silent beneath the plum trees' slender shade
I held her there
My love, so pale and silent
As if she were a dream that must not fade

Above us in the shining summer heaven
There was a cloud my eyes dwelled long upon
It was quite white and very high above us
Then i looked up
And found that it had gone

And since that day, so many moons in silence
Have swum across the sky and gone below
The plum trees surely have been chopped for firewood
And if you ask, how does that love seem now
I must admit, i really can't remember
And yet i know what you are trying to say
But what her face was like, i know no longer
I only know i kissed it on that day

As for the kiss, i long ago forgot it
But for the cloud that floated in the sky
I know that still and shall forever know it
It was quite white and moved in very high
It may be that the plum trees still are blooming
That woman's seventh child may now be there
And yet that cloud had only bloomed for minutes
When i looked up
It vanished on the air

My love wherever you are
Whatever you are, don't lose faith
I know it's gonna happen someday
To you
Please wait
Please wait
Wait, don't lose faith
You say that the day never arrives
And it's never seemed so far away
But i know it's gonna happen someday
To you
Please wait
Please wait
Wait, don't lose faith
Please wait
Please wait
Please, don't lose faith
Don't lose faith

You say that the day never arrives
And it seems so far away
But i know it's gonna happen someday
Someday to you
To you
Please wait
Please wait
Please wait

Wash your face before your faded make-up makes a mark
The mirror will watch over you
Pierrot never comes so pack your face and chase the dark
The mirror's hung up on you
Don't be last, your friends and your reflection
It's all so direction now
Poor harlequin, you're quite an exception
Fay troubadour, on a downer
Gay harlequin, doesn't believe in you
Doesn't believe it's true, such a downer.

I've nothing much to offer
There's nothing much to take
I'm an absolute beginner
And i'm absolutely sane
As long as we're together
The rest can go to hell
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
With eyes completely open
But nervous all the same

If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the ocean/sail over heartaches second time
Just like the films
There's no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true

Nothing much could happen
Nothing we can't shake
Oh we're absolute beginners
With nothing much at stake
As long as you're still smiling
There's nothing more i need
I absolutely love you
But we're absolute beginners
But if my love is your love
We're certain to succeed

If our love song
Could fly over mountains
Could laugh at the ocean/sail over heartaches second time
Just like the films
There's no reason
To feel all the hard times
To lay down the hard lines
It's absolutely true

London bye ta-ta
Strange young town
London bye ta-ta
Brought me down
Don't like your new face
That's not nice
Got to go far, far
London bye ta-ta

Gigi, gigi, gigi, gigi
Take me away
Gigi, gigi, gigi, gigi
Take me today
The boys in the clothes shop
Sold me curry for a pound
His cardboard face is soggy,
And his sellings thorny crown

I loved her!
I loved her!
I've got to get away,
But i loved her!

Oh-oh-oh
London bye ta-ta
Strange young town
London bye ta-ta
Brought me down
Don't like your new face
That's not nice
Got to go far, far
London bye ta-ta

Red light, green light
Make up your mind
Red light, green light
You're far too un-kind
She loves to love all beauty,
And she says the norm is funny
But she whimpers in the morning
When she finds she has no money

I loved her!
I loved her!
I've got to get away now,
But i loved her!
Ahhh!

Oh-oh-oh
London bye ta-ta
Strange young town
London bye ta-ta
Brought me down
Don't like your new face
That's not nice
Got to go far, far
London bye ta-ta
Ahh

Oh-oh-oh
London bye ta-ta
Strange young town
London bye ta-ta
Brought me down
Don't like your new face
That's not nice
Got to go far, far
London bye ta-ta
Oh, london bye ta-ta
Oh, london bye ta-ta
Oh, eh

There's a man back a-ways
Who believes at where he is
And there's a girl
Up ahead who says she knows

And the street overflows
With the folk who understand
But for the guy who can't be seen
He's the shadow man
And the shadow man is close at hand

Take a turn and see his smile
Made of nothing but loneliness
Just take a walk and be a friend
To the shadow man

You can call him joe, you can call him sam
You should call and see who answers
For he promises to come running, guided by the truth
But the shadow man is really you

Look in his eyes and see your reflection
Look to the stars and see his eyes
He'll show you tomorrow, he'll show you the sorrows
Of what you did today

You can call him foe, you can call him friend
You should call and see who answers
For he knows your eyes are drawn to the road ahead
And the shadow man is waiting round the bend
Oh, the shadow man
Ohooooo oooo
Shadow man, shadow man
It's really you, it's really you, it's really you
He's the shadow man
Oh yeah
Shadow man

Skin dance back-a-the condo
Skin heads getting to school
Beating on blacks with a baseball bat
Racism back in rule

White trash picking up nazi flags
While you was gone, there was war
This is the west, get used to it
They put a swastika over the door

Under the god
Under the god
One step over the red line
Under the god
Under the god
Ten steps into the crazy crazy

Washington heads in the toilet bowl
Don't see supremicist hate
Right wing dicks in their boiler suits
Picking out who to annihilate

Toxic jungle of uzi trails
Tribesmen just wouldn't live here
Fascist flare is fashion cool
Wel, you're dead-you just ain't buried (yet)

Under the god
Under the god
Oh yeah
Under the god
Under the god

As the walls came tumbling down
So, the secrets that we shared
I believed you by the palace gates.
Now the savage days are here

Under the god
Yeah
Yeah

Mm
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Under the god
Under the god
One step over the red line
Under the god
Under the god
One step into the crazy crazy

Crazy eyed man with a shot gun
Hot headed creep with a knife
Love and peace and harmony
Love you could cult with a life

Under the god
Under the god
Raging down
Raging down
Under the god
Under the god

Hey hey is the tall sail
On a beam lit put your hand
Make way for to java
Watching for bogies
Hey hey it's a dreaming
I would burn you if you should die
Hey hey i would burn too
If you should lie upon that bamboo pyre

I dream of amlapura
Never saw in all my life a more shining jewel
I dream of amlapura
Of an ocean or dream of a princess in stone

Hey hey golden roses around
A rajah

I'm lazy
You're crazy, girl
Stay by my side

I'm scared you'll
Meet someone
In whom you'll confide no no no

Life's still a dream
Your love's amazing
Since i found you
My life's amazing

I pledge you
Never be blue
There's too much at stake to be down

My nightmare
Rooted here watching you go
Divine in both, our lives

Life's still a dream
Your love's amazing amazing
Since i found you
My life's a roll
Go go go
And it's amazing

It's amazing
Go go go
It's amazing
Oh
Oh
Oh
Go go go
Oh
Oh
It's amazing

Ok, talk to you
South america, australia, france, germany, uk, africa

Calling out around the world
Are you ready for a brand new beat
Summer's here and the time is right
For dancing in the streets
They're dancing in chicago
Down in new orleans
In new york city

All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
They'll be swinging, swaying, records playing,
Dancing in the street, oh

It doesn't matter what you wear, just as long as you are there
So come on, every guy, grab a girl, everywhere, around the world
They'll be dancing, dancing in the street

It's an invitation across the nation, a chance for folks to meet
They'll be laughing and singing, music swinging
Dancing in the street

Philadelphia, pa
Baltimore in dc now
Don't forget the motor city
On the streets of brazil
Back in the ussr
No matter where you are

All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
They'll be swinging, swaying, records playing
Dancing in the street, oh

It doesn't matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
So come on every guy, grab a girl, everywhere, around the world
They'll be dancing, dancing in the streets

Way down in l.a., everyday
Dancing in the streets
Cross in china too
Me and you
Dancing in the street

Don't you know
They'll be dancing
Dancing in the street (repeat)

Girls
They come and they go
They kiss
Come and they go
Like breeze
Brushing my cheek
Like pain
Like the tears on my face

Girls
They come and they go
Like spirits
They vanish at dawn
My heart
Suspended in time
Like you
Vanish like tears in the rain

Girls
They take their loves away
Like spirits
Living so far away

Girls
Pretending to break down and cry
Girls
Whispering wind
What are they giving away

We used to be so happy
Remember, remember
So happy
I never knew
How lonely
How lonely
How lonely i could feel

Girls
They come and they go
They kiss
They come and they go
Like spirits
Brushing my cheek
Like pain
Like the tears on my face

Girls
They take their loves away
Like spirits
Living so far away

Girls
Pretending to break down and cry
Girls
Whispering wind
What are they giving away
We used to be so happy
Remember, remember
So happy
I never knew
How lonely
How lonely
How lonely i could feel
Girls

Do you hear what i hear?
Do you see what i see?
Colin, i want you to use your imagination
You wake up one morning and you ask yourself

Why am i so exciting?
What makes me dramatic?
You're trying to say something about yourself
The dazzling crime of wisdom

You fall for reality
You're bruised and bewildered
Then you learn to fall in love with yourself
That's motivation

You raise yourself high
Presenting your soul
You step from the shadows
You hear the command
An image to dream
You tremble permission
Tomorrow's rewards bloody skies of today
You'll step out of time
Into life's every dream
A life of such powerful meaning

Now you has class
Now you has splash
Now you has mass motivation

Here's an image i can recommend
Here's a product you will die for
Here's a nightmare that will never end
Get you fired upp burning go oh oh

You know you got something
You know you got style
We don't take much just a little bit
That's motivation

Welcome to the world of your dreams, colin
Where you can be what you want
Commit horrible sins
And get away with it

Lust
Gluttony
Pride
Anger
Sloth
Avarice
And jealousy

You know you got something
You know you got the style
We don't take much, but a little bit
That's motivation

No more false illusion
Goodbye to confusion
Stand out from the madding crowd
Motivation is symphony

Symphony in style (that's motivation)
It's brilliant, original (that's motivation)
Stimulating, encouragement (that's motivation)
As precious from home (that's motivation)
So what (motivation)
Say what (motivation)
New (moti)
So (moti)

Now you has class motiv
Now you has mass motivation

The ghost of manhattoes
Shrieking as they fall
From at&t
Someone sees it all
Goodbye mr. ed
Andy's skull enshrined
In a shopping mall near queens
Someone sees it all

Icarus takes his pratfall
Bruegel on his head
Goodbye mr. ed

Four and twenty black kids
Some of them are blind
Someone sees it all
Tolerance of violence
By the fellows with no heads
Goodbye mr. ed

Some things are so big
They make no sense
Histories so small
People are so dense
Someone sees it al
Goodbye mr. ed
Some things are so big
They make no sense
Histories so small
People are so dense
Someone sees it al
Goodbye mr. ed

Never mind the pistols
They laid the golem eggs
Others came to hatch them
Outside the pale
Someone sees it all
Goodbye mr. ed

And as the sparrow sings
Dawn chorus for
Someone else to hear
The thinker sits alone growing older
And so bitter

She gave them life,
She gave them all
They drained her very soul dry...dry

Hey hey hey bitter girl
We're out to sitting here digging you
We flew done here just to figure you
It's easy
Don't be so bitter
Oh oh oh crazy girl
You gave too much and you got nothing
Too many problems and not one thing
In return
Left high and dry
Door

And as the sun rise stream
Flickers on
She finds lavender
To fight the beckoning

A little piece of you
The little peace in me
Will die
For this is not america

Blossom falls to bloom
This season
Promise not to stare
Too long
For this is not a miracle

There was a time
A storm that blew so pure
For this could be the biggest sky
And i could have
The faintest idea

Snowman melting
From the inside
Falcon spirals
To the ground
So bloody red
Tomorrows clouds

A little piece of you
The little piece in me
Will die
For this is not america

There was a time
A wind that blew so young
For this could be the biggest sky
And i could have the faintest idea

This could be the biggest sky
This could be a miracle
This could be etc

Baby baby baby baby baby giving in
Baby can't baby talk baby well baby thinking baby walk baby lost baby found
Baby beauty baby can't baby talking baby girl baby thinking baby well baby lost baby found baby giving in baby can

If a womans hips are ample
Then i want her in the hay
Skirt and stocking all a rample
Cheerfully
For that's my way
If the woman bites in pleasure
Then i wipe it clean with hay
My mouth, her lap together
Not really
For that's my way
If a woman goes on loving
When i feel to tired to play
I'd smile and go off waving, i'm leaving
For that's my way

Nightclubbing we're nightclubbing

Nightclubbing we're nightclubbing
We're an ice machine
We see people brand new people
They're something to see
Nightclubbing real nightclubbing
Or isn't it wild

Nightclubbing we're nightclubbing
We're walking through town
Nightclubbing we're nightclubbing
We walk like a ghost
We learn dancers brand new dances
Like the nuclear bomb

Bright white clubbing

From the spics and blacks and the gum you chew
Where the posters are torn by the muggin gangs
By the faggy parks and the burnt out vans

I've got 99 years of laying in the dark and i'm far too young to lie
I've got 99 ways to play my guitar it's going to pay me before i die

Well if looks can love we can love all right

I got a bedroom every mirror in town they're going to claim me if i fall

Gonna rock it in your head
Shazam and come ball
With my guitar and mr. bang o

While you down there

See my eyes of blocked emotion, see my tremble, see my fall
Traumatics thick and fast, your faith in me can last
Besides i'm known to lay you, one and all

Look south the way your mother dwells
If she knew what's going down, she'd give you hell
I'm the kind of man she warned me of
Till there was rock you only had god

You and i have a mutual vow we both like young, and we both like loud
I got pretty shoes and i'm kid and proud i'm street side out with my ear to the crowd

So bob your sweet head
Brother ziggy going to play
I'm just about the best you can hear
It's gonna rock it in your head
Shazam and come ball
With my guitar and mr. bang o

Where's the pain in the violent night?
I'm depressed by the grill
I stay over many years
I should have thought of that
For the love of the money
Like a black-hearted vile thing
It's the nature of being

It's too many lonely nights
I can't tell bad from wrong
I can't pass you by
Too exchanging
You've been around
But you've changed me

When the flesh meets the spirit world
Where the traffic is thin
I slip from a vacant view
I should have thought of that
And the sound of tomorrow
Like a black-hearted vile thing
Like the silence of tension

It's too many lonely nights
I can't tell good from bad
I can't pass you by
Too exchanging
You've been around
But you've changed me

You've been around
Can't pass you by
You've been around
But you've changed me

Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-change!

Too exchanging

You've been around

But you've changed me

You've been around

Can't pass you by

You've been around

But you've changed me

You've been around

Can't pass you by

You've been around

But you've changed me

Stay with them now for they won't see you no more
Like a gypsy forever on the run
Stay for a while, while you look for a whore

Threepenny pierrot - we love you
Threepenny pierrot - loves us too
Pockets of gladness, gay time eyes
Comical hero, threepenny pierrot

Happy little feet that dance all day
Lonely little heart with lots to say
Stepping footprints on your mind
Offering thoughts of columbine

Bang the drum and blow the bugle call
Pierrot takes the stage to play for all
For here's a life his fortune rules
Forsaken by his columbine

Threepenny pierrot - we love you
Threepenny pierrot - loves us too
Pockets of gladness, gay time eyes
Comical hero, threepenny pierrot

To tap his feet to greet dear harlequin
The hearts of folks so keenly hard to win
A patchwork frame of tears and wine
The nectar for cruel columbine

The part of three and leaves the stage forlorn
Puppets cold, their faces sad and drawn
Relive each trial of rise and fall
The love which lacks between us all

Threepenny pierrot - we love you
Threepenny pierrot - loves us too
Pockets of gladness, gay time eyes
Comical hero, threepenny pierrot

Threepenny pierrot - we love you
Threepenny pierrot - loves us too
Pockets of gladness, gay time eyes
Comical hero . . . . . . threepenny pierrot

I'll give you back my right to be free
I'll give you back my farm and i'll give you back my house
I'll give you back my right to be free

I've got moon, i've got sun
Lightning, lightning, lightning
I've got me, i've got you
Frightening, frightening, frightening

I'll give you back my farmland and i'll give you back my house
I'll give you back my right to be free
I'll give you back my farmland and i'll give you back my house
I'll give you back my right to be free

La mia mente ha presol il volo
Un pensiero uno solo
Io cammino mentre dorme la citta'

I soui occhi mella notte
Fanali bianchi nella notte
Una voce che mi parla chi sara'?

Dimmi ragazzo solo dove uai,
Perche' tanto dolore?
Hai perduto senza dubbio un grande amore
Ma di amorie e'tutta peina la citta,

No ragazza sola, no no no
Stavolta sei in errore
Non ho perso solamente un grande amore
Ieri sera ho perso tutto con lei.

Ma lei
I colori della vita
Dei cieli blu
Una come lei non la trovero' mai piu

Ora ragazzo solo dove andrai
La notte e'un grande mare
Se ti serve la mia mano per nuotare
Grazie na stasera io vorrei morire
Perche' sai negli occhi miei
C'e' un angelo, un angelo
Che ormai non vola piu' che ormai non vola piu'
Che ormai non vola piu'
C'e' lei
I colori della vita
Dei cieli blu
Una come lei non la trovero' mai piu'

Well, the joint was rocking

Going round 'n' round
Yeah, reeling and a-rocking
What a crazy sound
Well, they never stopped rocking
'til the moon went down

Well it sounded so sweet
I had to take me a chance
I rose out of my seat
And had to dance
I started moving my feet
And clapping my hands

Yeah, we kept on rocking

Going round 'n' round
Yeah, reeling and a-rocking
What a crazy sound
Well, they never stopped rocking
'til the moon went down

About twelve o'clock
When the place was packed
The front doors were locked
I said the place was packed
When the police knocked
Those doors flew back

But kept on rocking

Going round 'n' round
Yeah, reeling and a-rocking
What a crazy sound
Well, they never stopped rocking
'til the moon went down

Yeah

About twelve o'clock
Around lock up time
Well, the doors were locked
Said the place was packed
When the police knocked
Those doors flew back

But it kept on rocking

Going round 'n' round
Yeah, reeling and a-rocking
What a crazy sound
Well, they never stopped rocking
'til the moon went down

Yeah, it kept on rocking

Going round 'n' round
Yeah, reeling and a-rocking
What a crazy sound
Well, they never stopped rocking
'til the moon went down

Bah bah bah bah bah bah bah bah
Bah bah bah bah bah bah
Pressure pressing down on me
Under pressure
That burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets

Bah bah bah bah bah bah
Bah bah bah bah bah bah

That's o-kay!
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Pray tomorrow takes me higher
Pressure on people

Do do do bah bah bah bah
O-kay
Chippin around
Kick my brains around the floor
These are the days
It never rains it pours
People on streets
People on streets

It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Pray tomorrow takes me higher
People people on streets
Turned away from it all
Like a blind man
Sat on fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love
But it's so slashed and torn
Why why why?
Love love love love

Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
Why can't we give love one more chance?
Why can't we give love give love give love?
Give love give love give love give love give love
Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care
For people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way
Of caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves under pressure
Under pressure pressure

I'm rolling out of the ferris wheel
No one looks and no one feels
But the baby can the baby can

The way it feels just feeling you
Holding out and falling out
But the baby can the baby can

I'm the jumping man
I'm the jumping man

But baby can float
Baby can drown
Baby can touch her toes
Toss her hair
Makes you feel you're going nowhere
Baby can dance
Baby can dance
Baby can walk around the town
Attract a man and cut him down

I'm the shadow man the jumping jack
The man who can and don't look back
But the baby can the baby can

I'm rolling out of the ferris wheel
No one looks and no one feels
But the baby can the baby can

And the way it feels
I'm feeling you

But baby can float
Baby can drown
Baby can touch her toes
Toss her hair
Makes you feel you're going nowhere
Baby can dance
Baby can dance
Baby can walk around the town
Attract a man and cut him down

Everyday is far away

Everyday, everyday

It's over now

It's over now

It's over now

It's over now

It's over now

But baby can float
Baby can drown
Baby can touch her toes
Toss her hair
Makes you feel you're going nowhere
Baby can dance
Baby can dance
Baby can walk around the town
Attract a man and cut him down

But baby can float
Baby can drown
Baby can touch her toes
Toss her hair
Makes you feel you're going nowhere
Baby can dance
Baby can dance
Baby can walk around the town
Attract a man and cut him down

I had skin like leather and the diamond-hard look of a cobra
I was born blue and weathered but i burst just like a super-nova
I could walk like brando right into the sun, an' dance just like a casanova
With my black-jack and jacket and my hair slicked sweet
Silver studs on my duds just like a harley in heat
When i strut down the street i can hear its' heartbeat
The sisters fell back and said "don't that man look pretty"
The cripple on the corner cried out "penny, nickels for your pity"
Them gasoline boys down-town, they sure talk gritty
It's so hard to be a saint in the city

I was the king of the alley, mama, i could talk some trash
I was the prince of the paupers, crowned down-town at the beggars' bash
I was a pimps main prophet, i kept everything cool
Just a back-street gambler with the luck to lo..ose
And when the heat came down it was left on the ground, mama
Devil appeared to me like jesus through the steam in the street, an'
Showed me a hand that even the cops couldn't beat
And i felt his hot breath on my neck as i dove into the heat, and it's so hard to be a saint when you're just a poor bo..oy out on the street

And the sages of the subway sit just like the living dead
As the tracks clack out the rhythm, the eyes fixed straight ahead
They ride the line of balancin', hold on by just a thread
Well, it's too hot in these tunnels, you can get hit up by the heat
When you get up to get out at your next stop, but they push you right down in your seat
And your heart starts beatin' faster as you struggle to your feet
Then you're out of that hole!, back on the street
And them south-side sisters, they sure look pretty
And the cripple on the corner cries out "nickels for your pity"
And them down-town boys, they sure talk gritty
It's so hard to be a saint in the c..c..city

I don't know why but i'm tired of my mind
Pain is over me, overloading
I don't know why but you're trying to be kind
Take off your silver smile, throw your head back
And cry

I don't believe but i'm trying to decide
Which game is best for me, which can i bare
You don't perseve so i'm leading you away
Home were you've never been, non-returning
So cry

Throw a rock upon the road and it breaks into pieces
Shake brach upon the snow and the sun is defeated
Pull the curtains on yesterday and it seems so much later
Put a bullet in my brain and i'll make all the papers

I don't know why but i'm tired of my life
The clouds are in my eyes, overtaking

Ain't got room for charity
Skeletons man
Me, i'm crawling with no cash
Chop it up
Me, i'm looking for hot flesh
Chop it up

This skeleton's mine
Chop it up
Chop it up

Blood on video-video crime
Video crime
Needles and pins and video crime
Video crime
I've got dollars-i've got sense
Wonder where the third world went

Aint got time for honeymoon
Chop it up
Trash time bundy, death row chic
Chop it up
Haunt this street from half past ten
Chop it up

Blood on video-video crime
Video crime
Needles and pins and video crime
Video crime
Late night cannibal-cripples decay
Just can't tear my eyes away

Ain't got no room for charity
This skeleton's mine
Ain't got room for hollywood
Chop it up
Me, i'm crawling with no cash
Chop it up
Blood on video-video crime
Video crime
Needles and pins and video crime
Video crime
I've got dollars i've got sense
Wonder where the third world went

Video crime
Chop it up
Video crime
Chop it up
Video crime
Chop it up
Video crime
Chop it up
Video crime
Chop it up

"within you"
By david bowie in the movie "labyrinth"
How you turned my world, you precious thing
You starve and near exhaust me
Everything i've done, i've done for you
I move the stars for no one

You've run so long
You've run so far

Your eyes can be so cruel
Just as i can be so cruel
Though i do believe in you

Yes i do

Live without the sunlight
Love without your heartbeat
I, i can't live within you
I can't live within you

(sigh)

I, i can't live within you

Everybody young and old
Learns how to rock 'n roll
Listen to something new
Everybody sure can do

Footstompin', footstompin', footstompin', footstompin'
(footstompin', footstompin', footstompin')
Footstompin' all of the time

Even just the other day
Taught it to my sister may
Red haired mr blue sure can do that stomping too

Footstompin', footstompin', footstompin', footstompin'
(footstompin', footstompin', footstompin')
Footstompin' all of the time

Hey turn

Wish i could shimmy like my sister kate
Well she can shimmy like a jelly on a plate
All the girls are i can't do it
I can do it yeah ha
Oooh

Everybody in the neighbourhood
Knows i can shimmy, shimmy good
I won't be an angel so i ought to be
East going west, i go the west

Meet me at the dance hall
We're going to have a ball
Show cure all you want
Forlorn
Reborn

Footstompin', footstompin', footstompin', footstompin'
(footstompin', footstompin', footstompin')
Footstompin' all of the time

Footstompin' all of the time

Let's say goodbye till tomorrow
With a word sincere
How do you make it through the night
I hope to god you're still here

It's a dog's tomorrow
And the song and wind
Brings nothing but sorrow
Oh ho oh ho, oh ho oh ho, oh ho oh ho

Hey jack you'd better shake it up
Put it out of my head
Thinking of all just another young girl last night
Oh brother i loved a women
And that morning bed been on that trip so many times
Good god was it really yestrday?

I tried so many many many many many, many ways
I've lied and taken often to the day
Leaving another girl to, weap over the breakfast tray
Loved her before i knew her name
Hit me jack cause i'm gonna love her way

Come back my baby
Be holy again
And give her
Oh maybe maybe
Gotta give her
Oh baby baby
That kind of love can only destroy
I gave her
Oh maybe maybe
? doubt if i'm gonna be her baby
Gonna be me

It was no rain to check me
When all those ? little things walked on by
Oh but i couldn't feel it ? worth
And when that angel was stuck in my mind
Oo oo oo oo
Looking for love wont hold me back
I'm gonna love her way

Come back my baby
Be holy, again
I gave her
Got to give her
Oh baby baby
That kind of love can only destroy
I gave her
Oh maybe maybe
Gotta get it now, if i'm gonna be her baby
Gonna be, yeah

Let's play, not play this record
Waitin' for the telephone to ring
Wiped-out and bitter, with a bag clutched in her hand
All the cars sound like they're
Pulling in the drive
Umm, no, no, no, no, no, uhh
I see her now
A little tear running down her check
Laugh! let down
People looking for me
I want to race down her street and knock hard, hard, hard on the door 'til
Until she breaks down into my arms like a tracy tie, and i feel the pain
I'll be so strong again and again

Come back my brain, yeah
I'm holy again i'll take ya, oh, babe, baby, baby
We're gonna have, oh, baby, baby, my kind of love can only bring you joy
I'm gonna, oh, baby yeah, got far
Give you, baby, baby 'cause it's gonna be me
Umm, hmm, hmm

There was a time, the laughing time
I took my heart to every party
They'd point my way
"how are you today?"
"will you make us laugh? chase our blues away?"
Their funny man won't let them down
No, he'd dance and prance and be their clown
That time, the laughing time
When even a fool learns to love

The clown turned around
And saw her smile, oh how she loved me
She'd clap her hands and beg me stay
To make her laugh, to make her life gay
Who wants the love of all the world
When here was love in the eyes of just one girl
That day, that precious day
When even a fool learns to love

But oh, how i dreamed, a marvelous dream
Where all of the heavens or so it had seemed
With thunderous applause looked down from above
On a clown and an angel so much in love
I'll stay with my dream, it takes such a dream
And even a fool learns to love

That day, that hateful day
The joke turned stale, the game was over
Those spiteful words "oh, go away. who wants to play?"
"it's getting late now."
My world, my funny world
Had lost its mask and shown a broken heart
A time, a sour time
When even a fool learns to love

But oh, how i dreamed, a marvelous dream
Where all of the heavens or so it had seemed
With thunderous applause looked down from above
On a clown and an angel so much in love
I'll stay with my dream, it takes such a dream
And even a fool learns to love

Who'll ride in my rupert the riley
Ride on for mile after miley

Till the sun blisters and sprays
And every lamb ceases to graze
When the kiss of the comb
Tears my face from the bone

I'll be your light
When the shadows fall down the walls
Then life will be done
And it just won't matter at all

I was caught from a hand
Nurtured on grime, goodwill and screams
Now your breath fills my step
Now there is you till life is gone

But i'll be your light
When the shadows fall down the walls
Then life will be done
And it just won't matter at all

I'll roll your ball
Till the stars can't make me cry
Then life will be done
And it just won't matter at all
Not at all

When the kiss of the comb
Tears my face

Lucy i know what you're going to going to do
Oh lucy look what you're doing i'm doing it too
Now you're looking for god in exciting new ways
I say trust him at once which is something these days

Lucy can't dance to the noise but she knows what the noise can do
Lucy can't dance to the noise but she knows what the noise can do

Did the world just explode?
Don't recognize anyone
But you've still got me under your thumb

Lucy can't dance to the noise but she knows what the noise can do
Oh oh oh
Lucy can't dance to the noise but she knows what the noise can do

There's tooling your frenzy in the tole savoy
And the sexual noise which is caught up a toy
You live and you die in the blink of an eye
Well i can't make you dance
Lucy can't dance
Dance to the noise

Lucy can't dance but she knows what the noise can do
Lucy can't dance
Dance to the noise
Lucy can't dance but she knows what the noise can
Lucy can't dance but she knows what the noise can
Lucy can't dance but she knows what the noise can do

Lucy can't dance

Lucy can't dance

Lucy i know what you're going to going to do
But you can't buy me off in the stirial (?) world
Who who who died and made you material girl?

Lucy can't dance to the noise but she knows what the noise can do

So i'll spin while my lunatic lyric goes wrong
Guess i'll put all my eggs in a postmodern song

Lucy can't dance to the noise but she knows what the noise can do

Of the show of the fine reality
Just a few simple words like i love you, i need you
Live and to die in the blink of an eye
Still i can't make you dance
Lucy can't dance
Dance to the noise

Lucy can't dance but she knows what the noise can do
Lucy can't dance
Dance to the noise

Lucy can't dance but she knows what the noise can
Lucy can't dance but she knows what the noise can
Lucy can't dance but she knows what the noise can
Lucy can't dance but she knows what the noise can do
Can do
Lucy i know what you're going to going to do
Lucy i know what you're going to going to do
Lucy can't dance
Lucy can't dance
Lucy i know what you're going to going to do
