1. _ Hungry Like The Wolf
(ha ha!)
Dark in the city, night is a wire
Steam in the subway, earth is a fire
Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do
Woman you want me, give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do
In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt i'm after you
Smell like i sound, i'm lost in a crowd
And i'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line, in discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt i'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And i'm hungry like the wolf
Stalked in the forest, too close to hide
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do
High blood drumming ony our skin it's so tight
You feel my heart, i'm just a moment behind
Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do
In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt i'm after you
Scent and a sound, i'm lost and i'm found
And i'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and i whine i'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And i'm hungry like the wolf
-
(hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf)
Burning the ground i break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt i'm after you
I smell like i sound, i'm lost and i'm found
And i'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt i'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And i'm hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground i break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt i'm after you
Scent and a sound, i'm lost and i'm found
And i'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and i whine i'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And i'm hungry like the wolf...

2. _ Rio
Moving on the floor now babe you're a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile i suppose it's very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
You catch the mirror way out west
You know you're something special and you look like you're the best.
Her name is rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dustly land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh rio rio dancer across the rio grande
I've seen you on the beach and i've seen you on tv
Two of a billion stars, it means so much to me -
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then i'm sure that you know it's just for you.
(chorus)
-
Hey now (wow), look at that.
Did he nearly run you down?
At the end of the drive, the lawmen arrive,
You make me feel alive, alive, alive
I'll take my chance, 'cause luck is on my side
I tell you something, i know what you're thinking
I tell you something, i know what you're thinking
(chorus)
Her name is rio and she don't need to understand
And i might find her it i'm looking like i can
Oh rio rio hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the north down to the rio grande

3. _ My Own Way
(i saw)
I saw you at the airace yesterday,
April showers get out of my way.
Fear of flying no not me.
I'm never bothered what you say
Someone's kid just lives for today
It ain't your problem anyway
'cos i've got my own way
I can find my own way
'cos i've got my own way
Hay yay yay yay yay ya-hay
(chrous)
(no. 1)
Public figure, what a pain
Just puts another rattle in your brain
Take another green but it's not the same
Now you're on the sandlane everyday
Dancing with the bulls in any old way
Running like a fox to keep up with me.
(chorus) (chorus)
-
I'm on 45th, between 6th & broadway
7up, between 6th & broadway
(chorus) (chorus)
Yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh
Hey now, be there
Hmmm busy
This is how i like it
Yes, settle down
Yes, come on, 6th & broadway
Say the words, come coolin down.

4. _ The Chauffeur
(words and music: duran duran)
Out on the tar plains, the glides are moving
All looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me so newly charming
Sweating dewdrops glisten freshing your side
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress - all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
Way down the lane away, living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky towards that hollow western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze
(chorus) (chorus)
Sing blue silver
And watching lovers part, i feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes, with a thought to stiffen brooding lies
And i'll only watch you leave me further behind
(chorus) (chorus)
Sing blue silver
Sing, sing.. blue silver
(theres more to this kind of camouflage)
(more than just colour and shape)
(who's going now, in to a classiomatic? )

5. _ Save A Prayer
You saw me standing by the wall, corner of a main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
All alone ain't much fun so you're looking for the thrill
And you know just what it takes and where to go.
Don't save a prayer for me now.
Save it til the morning after
No don't say a prayer for me now.
Save it til the morning after
Feel the breeze deep on the inside look down into the well
If you can you'll see the world in all his fire
Take a chance (like all dreamers can't find another way.)
You don't have to dream it all, just live a day.
(chorus)
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after....
-
Pretty looking road i try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin
Don't ask me why i'll keep my promise i'll melt the ice
And you wanted to dance, so i asked you to dance
But fear is in your soul,
Some people call it a one night stand, but we can call it paradise
(chorus)
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Do do do do do, do do do do do do do do
Save a prayer til the morning after...
Save a prayer til the morning after...
Save a prayer til the morning after,
Save a prayer til the morning after...

6. _ Hold Back The Rain
We're miles away from nowhere
And the wind doesn't have a name
So call it what you want to call it
Still blows down the lane
People tell me, i haven't changed at all
But i don't feel the same
And i bet you've had that feeling too
You just can't laugh all the time
And if the fires burn out there's only fire to blame
(hold back the rain)
No time for worry cause we're on the roam again.
(hold back the rain)
The clouds all scatter and we ride the outside lane
(hold back the rain)
Not on your own so help me please.. hold back the rain
-
So what if the words ain't rhyming
Did you think that it's just a game
I probably didn't even say that right
And i really don't give a damn
Okay go off and wander
I'm guilty just the same
Sometimes you're needed badly
So please come back again
(chorus)
-
And if the stars burn out, theirs only fire to blame
(hold back the rain)
No time for worry cause we're on the roam again.
(hold back the rain)
The clouds all scatter and we ride the outside lane
(hold back the rain)
Not on your own so help me please.. hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
Hold back the rain
(repeated..)

7. _ Last Chance On The Stairway
I don't remember quite how i met you, wasn't long ago
Just get a picture of sun, in your eyes,
The waves in your hair
Maybe it's something said in a movie or you could've said last night.
Just took me out on a limb
And i don't really know what i'm doing here.
And sometimes i'm caught in a landslide
My beat's so in time, can you look at me
I'm out of reach, i'll talk if it feels right
I've had my last chance on the stairway.
Funny it's just like a scene out of voltaire, twisting out of sight
'cause when all the curtains are pulled back
We'll turn and see the circles wet raced
Ain't no game... (oooh)
When you're playing with fire
It doesn't seem right that we fight
So the party runs on all night
And sometimes i'm caught in a landslide
My beat's so in time can you look at me
I'm out of reach i'll talk if it feels right
So nervous to say, tell me can't you see
If you want i'll fall out forever
I can't say no more... babe dance with me
And please don't say leave till later
I've had my last chance on the stairway.
-
Wonder why... (wonder why oooh)
What makes me rise so high
Maybe it's something they put in your perfume
Or the look in your eyes
It could be the atmosphere sinking
Oh, i don't even know what you're thinking
Don't even know what you're drinking
But it keep this heaven alive
(chorus)
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway...

8. _ Lonely In Your Nightmare
Even on the darkest night when empty promise means empty hand
And soldiers coming home like shadows turning red
When the lights of hope are fading quickly then look to me
I'll be your homing angel,i'll be in your head.
Because you're lonely in your nightmare let me in...
And there's heat beneath your winter let me in...
I see the delta traces living lonely out on the limb.
And a passing glimmer warm beneath your skin
Please tread gently on the ground when all around you earth
Turns to fire
Only get a second chance when danger's on the wind.
Because you're lonely in your nightmare let me in...
Because there's heat beneath your winter let me in...
-
Must be lucky weather when you find the kind of wind that you need
C'mon show me all the light and shade that made your name
I know you've got it in your head, i've seen that look before
You've built your refuge turns you captive all the same
Because you're lonely in your nightmare let me in...
And it's barren in your garden let me in...
Because there's heat beneath your winter let me in..
Because you're so lonely in your nightmare let me in..
And it's cold out on your stone range let me in...
Because there's heat beneath your winter let me in...
Do, do-do, do do do do
Do, do-do, do do do do

9. _ New Religion (a Dialogue Between The Ego And The Alter Ego)
I've been now sauntering out and down a path sometime.
Come on, it takes me nowhere which i knew
Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs and things
Telling me not there man, it's no go (don't go there boy)
I need a reason (i can't think without one now)
Too much learning got to show
Call it treason (maybe catch her don't know how)
Too many things too much to know
Bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind.
Lady screaming, lady leave me out
'cause sometimes people stare (coming down, electric chair)
And steaming crowds they gather and they shout
Don't know why this evil bothers me (take another chance boy carry the
Fight you can take him if you're fast)
So why is he trying to follow me? (didn't i say if you're holdin' on
You'd be laughing at the last)
How many reasons do they need? (i get along fine with them friends of
Mine, but you have to make a choice)
I might just believe this time (you're singing out of tune, but the beats
In time. and it's us who make the noise)
I'm talking for free. i can't stop myself, it's a new religion
I've something to see, i help myself, it's a new religion
Okay my reasoning might be clouded by the sun
But someone sees the departmental lie
You know this peacetime, jabbing fist in stabbing knife
Only get one look before you die
Don't know why this evil follows me (gotta take pay for the saints 'n'
Sinners. in regulation hats 'n scarves 'n things)
So why does he try to bother me? (walking in formation down the lane. they
Carry their cross make a church bell ring)
How many reasons do they need? (army majors pull a mean cool truth
There lying in a swimming pool)
I might just be right this time (searching for the undeniable truth,
That a man is just a fool)
(3rd verse) (chorus) (chorus)
