1. _ Full Moon
Haven't you noticed a kind of madness in my eyes?
It's only me, dear, in my midnight disguise.
Pay no attention if i crawl across the room.
It's just another full moon.
Don't be afraid of me when i'm walking in my sleep.
Don't get alarmed, dear, when i start to crawl and creep.
Try not to listen when i mumble like a loon.
It's just another full moon.
It's just another full moon.
You see before you a truly broken man.
'cause when it gets to midnight, i don't know who i am.
Full moon's a-callin', and it's put a curse on me,
And it will never set me free.
The full moon's still up there,
Like a great white balloon.
The owls are a-callin',
And they're singin' my tune.
The night keeps a-callin'.
I wish the day would come soon,
To get away from another full moon.
Here comes another full moon.
If your hands start shakin'
When night starts to fall,
If you're scared of the moonlight
And the shadows on the wall,
If the face in the mirror
Isn't you at all,
It's just another full moon.
It's just another full moon.
La la la la la la.
La la la la la la.
La la la la la la.
La la la la la la.
It's just another full moon.

2. _ Juke Box Music
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records
On the jukebox ev'ry day.
All day long she plays the same old songs,
And she believes the things that they say.
Other ladies like to prance around
And flirt and dance the whole night through,
But she just sits and listens to here juke box records,
'cause that's all that she wants to do.
She sings along with all the saddest songs,
And she believes the stories are real.
She let's the music dictate the way that she feels.
It's only juke box music,
Only juke box music.
It's only music,
Only juke box music,
Only juke box music.
Seems to me she's in a fantasy.
She's livin' in a world of her own.
And we all agree that she's a mystery,
Because she'd rather be all alone.
Ev'ry guy will do his best to try
To put that music out of her head.
Forget all the songs,
And just dance to the music instead.
It's only juke box music,
Only juke box music.
It's only music,
Only juke box music,
Only juke box music.
It's all because of that music
That we're slowly driftin' apart.
But it's only there to dance to,
So you shouldn't take it to heart.
Music, only juke box music.
Only music, only juke box music.

3. _ Life On The Road
Ever since i was a child,
I loved to wander wild
Through the bright city lights,
And find myself a life i could call my own.
It was always my ambition
To see piccadilly,
Ramble and roam around soho
And pimlico and savile row,
And walk down the abbey road.
So i saved all my money
And packed up my clothes,
And i said good-bye to my friends
And my folks back home.
And i left for a life of my own.
I left for a life on the road.
I'm a real hungry tyke,
And i know what i like.
And i know where i'm goin':
To those bright city lights.
Oh yeah, oh yeah,
This time i'm gonna get there.
I'm bound for a life on the road.
Give me life on the road.
I said life on the road.
When i arrived in euston,
I was little more than a child.
And i didn't know then
That the dives and the dens
Would be so vulgar and wicked and wild.
Mama always told me
The city ladies were bawdy and bold.
And so i searched night and day
To catch a kissable lady,
But all that i caught was a cold,
'cause those stuck-up city ladies
Didn't notice me walk by.
Now i've got holes in my shoes
'cause i've been walkin' the streets all night.
And i'm livin' the life that i chose.
Livin' my life on the road.
I said life on the road.
I want life on the road.
Life on the road.
I was standing with the punks in praed street,
When a muscle man came my way.
He said, "hey, are you gay?
Can you come out and play?"
And like a fool, i went and said, "o.k."
Ever since i was knee high,
I thought the city was paved with gold.
But i've seen so many losers
And down and out boozers
Who were tired of bein' bought and sold.
City women are a tease,
But i'd really love to please.
Now i've got blood shot eyes
'cause i've been walkin' the streets all night.
And it sure knocks you out on the road.
And i'm livin' my life on the road.
I said life on the road.
Life on the road.
I want life on the road.
One of these days,
I wanna go home,
Visit my friends,
And see all the places that i used to know,
And say good-bye to a world that's too real;
Good-bye to a world that's forgotten how to feel.
And it's slowly usin' me,
And there's no security.
Sometimes i hate the road,
But it's the only life i know.
But i'm livin' the life that i chose,
So i'll live out my life on the road.
Give me life on the road.
I said life on the road.

4. _ Brother
The world's goin' crazy and
Nobody gives a damn anymore.
And they're breakin' off relationships and
Leavin' on sailin' ships for far and distant shores.
For them it's all over,
But i'm gonna stay.
I wouldn't leave anyway.
I know that someday we'll find a way.
We'll be o.k.
'cause i'm your brother,
Though i don't even know your name.
I've discovered that,
Deep down inside, you feel the same.
Our friends are leavin'.
Now they seem so far away.
But we shouldn't feel afraid.
There's so much that we can say.
You're my brother,
Though i didn't know you yesterday.
I'm your brother.
Together we can find a way.
The world's goin' crazy and
Nobody gives a damn anymore.
And they're breakin' off relationships and
Leavin' on sailin' ships for far and distant shores.
The old world's fadin'.
Now it seems so far away.
Well, i'm not goin' anywhere.
There's so much that we can share.
I'm your brother.
The world's goin' crazy and
Nobody gives a damn anymore.
And they're breakin' off relationships and
Leavin' on sailin' ships for far and distant shores.
You're my brother,
Though i didn't know you yesterday.
I'm your brother.
Together we can find a way

5. _ On The Outside
You stay at home,
All on your own with nothing but walls to talk to.
You never go anywhere,
You say you've nothing to wear,
So you keep all your troubles inside of you.
There's something hidden in you,
And you keep it out of view.
You shouldn't feel any guilt,
Or have any doubts,
You gotta let yourself out whilst there's something left of you
Hey baby blue,
Don't hide your troubles inside.
I'd sure like to knoe you,
And there's so much to show you on the outside.
Somehow i know that we are goona get by,
So stop acting like a ladfy come and cry like a baby on the outside
Outside
I know that the weather is fine,
Outside
I know we're gonna be alright.
Somehow i know that we are goonna survive.
So stop acting like a lady come and cry like a baby on the outside
On the outside
You think you're a freak,
And you're afraid to compete,
In a world that you thinks got it down on you,
You're a closet queen,
You think it's obscene,
To let the people see what's deep inside of you.
I know what you're going through,
But what you are is nothing new,
So don't feel ashamed
'cos you're not to blame,
Role up the blinds and let the sun come shining through.
Hey baby blue
Don't hide your troubles inside,
You should be glad in the gay,
Nobody cares anyway on the outside.
Somehow i know that we are gonna get by,
So stop acting like a lady come and cry like a baby on the outside.
Outside
I know that the weather is fine
Outside
I know it's gonna be alright.
Somehow i know that we are gonna get by,
So stop acting like a lady come and cry like baby on the outside.
On the outside

6. _ Sleepless Nights
Oh, there's a rude little lady
Livin' next to me.
Oh, she sure loves someone,
But it ain't me.
Ev'ry night at twelve o'clock,
They start to rock with all they got.
They keep it up all night.
It just ain't right.
They o.k. by me, i'm not.
He and she, they all right.
Once they start, they never stop
Through this sleepless night.
Once i was her lover.
It was so good to be.
Now she's got somebody else and i can't sleep.
Ooh, nothin' hurts people more than other people do.
But what can you do?
Meanwhile, upstairs, they o.k.
Ev'rythin' is all right.
I wish that i could find a way
Through this sleepless night.
Ooh, this sleepless night.
Ooh, this sleepless night.
Ooh, that wicked lady,
She's got a hold on me.
Ooh, she doesn't want me,
But she won't let me be.
They play that music ev'ry night.
It rocks my bed; it shakes my light.
They ball with all their might.
It just ain't right.
Ooh, this sleepless night.
Ooh, this sleepless night.

7. _ Mr. Big Man
I remember when you started out,
You were the best friend i ever knew.
I tried to meet you when you had your success,
But you had better things to do.
Now i bet that you're losin' count
Of the people that you used.
But now we're gonna see the vicious side of you,
Mister big.
You've got the say and the power.
Your minions grovel and cower.
But i see you, and i see me.
But you're the big man now.
You got it, mister big.
Your followers kiss your hand,
And your slaves all at your feet.
Your minions serve your beck and call,
But they don't compensate at all,
'cause inside, mister big's very small.
When you were poor and knockin' at the door,
You were really lots of fun.
But now you're hot and you're sittin' on the top;
You've got no time for anyone.
You schemed and connived.
You pushed and you lied,
Till you at last became a star.
But now we're gonna see the way you really are,
Mister big.
Now your vict'ry is complete
And your battles are all won.
Your enemies and foes are all stacked up in rows,
Eliminated one by one.
You got it, mister big.

8. _ Prince Of The Punks
A well known groover, rock 'n' roll user,
Wanted to be a star.
But he failed the blues, and he's back to loser,
Playing folk in a country bar.
Reggae music didn't seem to satisfy his needs.
He couldn't handle modern jazz,
'cause they play it in difficult keys.
But now he's found a music he can call his own,
Some people call it junk, but he don't care,
He's found a home.
He's the prince of the punks and he's finally made it,
Thinks he looks cool but his act is dated.
He acts working class but it's all bologna,
He's really middle class and he's just a phony.
He acts tough but it's just a front,
He's the prince of the punks.
He's the prince of the punks and he's finally made it,
Thinks he looks cool but his act is dated.
He tried to be gay, but it didn't pay,
So he bought a motorbike instead.
He failed at funk, so he became a punk,
'cause he thought he'd make a little more bread.
He's been through all of the changes,
From rock opera to mantovani.
Now he wears a swastika band
And leather boots up past his knees.
He's much too old for twenty-eight,
But he thinks he's seventeen,
He thinks he's a stud,
But i think he looks more like a queen.
He's the prince of the punks and he's finally made it,
Thinks he looks cool but his act is dated.
He talks like a cockney but it's all bologna,
He's really middle class and he's just a phony.
He acts tough but it's just a front.
He's the prince of the punks and he's finally made it,
Thinks he looks cool but his act is dated.
He acts working class but it's all bologna,
He's really middle class and he's just a phony.
He acts tough but it's just a front,
He's the prince of the punks and he's finally made it,
Thinks he looks cool but his act is dated.
He acts working class but it's all bologna,
He's really middle class and he's just a phony.
He acts tough but it's just a front,
He's the prince of the punks.

9. _ The Poseur
The poseur's in town
The poseur's around
Hey, it don't bother me,
But there's a guy eyein' you
He's watched you all night and he's looked you all over
He got his eye on you
But don't act like you're surprised
Because that smooth-looking guy's undressing you with his eyes
Look at him look you over
He thinks he can win you over
He'll flirt for a while, make passes and smile at you
But he'll never come over
'cause he's just a poseur
Who thinks he's a cassonova
That dude standing over there
He thinks he really looks cool
The ladies think he looks smooth
But he's rehearsed every move
He stands in front of the mirror all day
Now he's on display and he's so well routined
We've all come here to dance but he's just here to be seen
Look at him bossa nova
Look at him move and sway
But he's been practicing days to make his hair fall a certain way
But he'll never come over
'cause he's just a poseur
Who thinks he's a casanova
Look at him bossa nova, yeah
The poseur's in town
Yeah

10. _ Stormy Sky
Oh, oh darlin',
Little darlin',
Did you ever see such a stormy sky?
It's never been like this before.
All the people,
They're runnin'.
Ev'rybody's try'n' to hide,
To get away from that stormy sky.
Perhaps it's a sign
Of what we're headed for.
We're under a stormy sky,
Watchin' the clouds roll by.
But won't you let me keep you warm,
And leave the storm outside?
It's only a stormy sky.
I feel it.
Do you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Feels like we're in for a stormy night,
But i can't see a cloud in sight.
I see it.
Do you see it?
Can't you see it,
See that warning in that stormy sky.
But perhaps its gonna pass us by,
So don't you cry.
There's nowhere we can hide.
But if you hold me tight,
I know that we'll be all right.
Tomorrow we'll laugh about it;
Greet the mornin' light.
It's only a stormy sky.
We're under a stormy sky,
Watchin' the clouds roll by.
But there'll be another dawn
To clear the storm away,
And we will be all right.

11. _ Sleepwalker
Ev'rybody got problems, buddy. i got mine.
When midnight comes around, i start to lose my mind.
When the sun puts out the light,
I join the creatures of the night,
Oh yeah.
I'm a sleepwalker.
I'm a night stalker.
I'm a street walker.
I'm a night hawker.
Ev'rybody got secrets that they wanna hide.
When midnight comes along, i take a look inside.
Don't go talkin' in your sleep:
I might come in for a peep,
Oh yeah.'
I'm a sleepwalker.
I'm a night stalker.
When ev'rybody's fast asleep, i start to creep.
Through the shadows of the moonlight, i walk my beat.
Better close your window tight:
I might come in for a bite,
Oh yeah.
When the night time comes, i start to creep.
I prowl around when you're fast asleep.
I walk around on my tippy toes,
And i get into places that nobody knows.
I'm always around if you wanna meet.
You can find me on almost ev'ry street.
You'll always get me on the telephone.
I'll even come to your home if you're ever alone.
I'm a sleepwalker.
I'm a night stalker.
I'm a street walker.
I'm a night hawker.

12. _ Artificial Light
Slow dancing in a disco,
Standing underneath the light show,
Illuminated by the artificial light.
I disbelieved it at first sight,
I couldn't tell if she was black or white,
It didn't matter in the artificial light,
Artificial light.
Artificial light.
Artificial light.
Artificial light.
First time i saw her she was easy to know,
She had nothing to hide, she put it all out to show.
She didn't cover up or try to conceal,
I knew the way that she felt 'cause her expression was real.
She didn't cover up the inside,
She showed it all on the outside,
Stark naked in the artificial light.
Everybody gotta learn to relax,
To be yourself you have to put on an act.
Get together in the artificial light.
And if i saw her in the light of day,
I wouldn't know what to say, i wouldn't know what had happened.
I only wanna know a world below,
Where we can be ourselves beneath an artificial glow.
And if you're scared what your friend'll say,
And you're embarrassed by the light of day,
Get together in the artificial light.
Everybody let yourself go,
Everybody to a floor show,
Get together in the artificial light.
Artificial light,
Artificial light,
Artificial light,
Artificial light.

13. _ Life Goes On
A friend of mine just had a real bad time.
You see, his life was shattered and he lost his mind.
His girl ran off along with his best friend,
And through emotional stress he brought his life to an end.
It was such a tragedy,
But that's the way it's got to be.
Life goes on.
Life goes on.
It happens ev'ry day.
So appreciate what you got
Before it's taken away.
Life will hit you
When you're unprepared,
So be grateful and take all
That you can while you're there.
Get that frown off your head,
'cause you're a long time dead.
Life goes on and on and on.
Life goes on and on and on.
No use runnin' 'round lookin' scared,
Life could get you when you're unaware.
One day it's gonna come, so you better accept it.
Life will hit you when you least expect it.
And one day when you are gone,
You know that life will still go on.
But no one'll care if you've been good, bad, right or wrong.
Life will still go on.
My bank went broke and my well ran dry.
It was almost enough to contemplate suicide.
I turned on the gas, but i soon realized
I hadn't settled my bill so they cut off my supply.
No matter how i try, it seems i'm too young to die.
Life goes on and on and on.
Life goes on and on and on.
Tornado, cyclone and hurricane
Can batter the houses with the thunder and rain.
Blizzards can blow; the waves hit the shore,
But the people recover and come back for more.
Somehow the people fight back, even the future looks black.
Life goes on and on and on.
Life goes on and on and on.
