I Want It All
Adventure
seeker on an empty street,
Just an alley creeper, light on his feet
A young fighter screaming, with no time for doubt
With the pain and anger can't see a way out,
It ain't much I'm asking, I heard him say,
Gotta find me a future, move out of my way,
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now,
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now,
Listen
all you people, come gather round
I gotta get me a new game plan, gotta shake you to the ground
Just give me what I know is mine,
People do you hear me, just give me the sign,
It ain't much I'm asking, if you want the truth
Here's to the futures for the dreams of youth,
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now,
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now,
I'm
a man with a one track mind,
So much to do in one lifetime (people do you hear me)
Not a man for compromise and where's and why's and living lies
So I'm living it all, yes I'm living it all,
And I'm giving it all, and I'm giving it all,
It ain't much I'm asking, if you want the truth,
Here's to the future, hear the cry of youth,
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now,
I want it all, I want it all, I want it all, and I want it now,
And I want it...Now

Seven Seas Of Rhye
Fear
me you lords and lady preachers
I descend upon your earth from the skies
I command your very souls you unbelievers
Bring before me what is mine
The seven seas of rhye
Can
you hear me you peers and privvy counselors
I stand before you naked to the eyes
I will destroy any man who dares abuse my trust
I swear that you'll be mine
The seven seas of rhye
Sister
- I live and die for you
Mister - Do and I'll die
You are mine, I possess you
I belong to you forever
Storm
the master marathon I'll fly through
By flash and thunder fire and I'll survive, I'll survive,
I'll survive
Then I'll defy the laws of nature and come out alive
Then I'll get you
Be gone with you, you shod and shady senators
Give out the good, leave out the bad evil cries
I challenge the might titan and his troubadours
And with a smile
I'll take you to the seven seas of rhye...
Oh
I do like to be beside the seaside
Oh I do like to be beside the sea
Oh I do like to stroll along the prom prom prom
Where the brass bands play tiddley om pom pom
Oh I do like to be beside the seaside
Oh I do like to be beside the sea
When I'm down beside the sea
I'm beside myself with glee
Beside the seaside
Beside the sea

I Can't Live With You (1997 'Rocks' Retake)
I
can't live with you
But I can't live without you
I can't let you stay
But I can't live if you go away
I don't know just how it goes
All I know is I can't live with you
I'm having a hard time
I'm walking a fine line between hope and despair
You may think that I don't care --
But I travelled a long road to get a hold of my sorrow
I tried to catch a dream
But nothing's what it seams
Love is saying baby it's all right
When deep inside you're really petrified
Lover turns to hater on this escalator
I can't live with you, but I can't live without you
I can't breath - if you stay
But I can't bear you to go away
I don't know what time it is
All I know is I can't live with you
We're stuck in a bad place
We're trapped in a rat race
And we can't escape (maybe there's been some mistake!)
We're trying to make a high score
We're walking through a closed door
And nobody's winning - we're just sinning against ourselves
Hold on baby tell me it's all right
Anger's breaking from the hurt inside
Passions screaming hotter, doing what we gotta do - yeah
I can't live with you, I can't live with you
I can't live, I can't live, I can't, I can't live with you
But baby I'll never ever leave you
I can't live with you, but I can't live without you -
Cause I'm in love with you
And everything about you
I can't live with you, no I just can't live, I just can't live
I can't live with you, and I can't live without you
Through the madness, through the tears
We've still got each other for a million years, yeah!
I can't live without you.....

Hammer To Fall
Here
we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Make the bed, light the light
Lady Mercy won't be home tonight, yeah
You
don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
We're just waiting for the hammer to fall, yeah
Oh
every night and every day
A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face, the Western Way
Build your muscles as your body decays, yeah
Tow
your line and play their game
Let the anaesthetic cover it all
Till one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall
Rich
or poor or famous for your truth is all the same
Lock your door but rain is pouring through your window pane
Baby now your struggle's all in vain
For
we who grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the mushroom cloud
Convinced our voices can't be heard
We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louder
What
the hell we fighting for?
Just surrender and it won't hurt at all
You just got time to say your prayers
While you're waiting for the hammer to hammer to fall
It's going to fall
Yeah, hammer to fall
Give it to me one more time

Stone Cold Crazy
Sleeping
very soundly on a Saturday morning I was dreaming I was Al Capone
There's a rumor going round gotta clear outta town

Anymore, anymore, cannot take it anymore
Gotta get away from this stone cold floor

Here comes the deputy gonna come and getta me

Now I'm Here

But you won't see me
Now I'm here, now I'm there, I'm just a..
Just a new man
Yes you made me live again

And the people all stared didn't understand, but you knew my name on sight

America's new bride to be-don't worry baby I'm safe and sound
Down in the dungeon just Peaches and me
Don't I love her so, she made me live again
Yeah
A thin moon me in a smoke screen sky
Where the beams of your love life chase
Don't move, don't speak, don't feel no pain
With a rain running down my face
Your matches still light up the sky
And many a tear lives on in my eye
Down in the city just Hoople and me
Don't I love him so, ooh don't I love him so
Whatever
comes of you and me
I love to leave my memory with you
Now
I'm here
Think I'll stay around around around
Down in the city just you and me
Don't I love you so
Go go go little pretty (?)

Keep Yourself Alive
I
was told a million times
Of all the troubles in my way
Tried to grow a little wiser
Little better ev'ry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started
Bread and butter for a smile
Well I sold a million mirrors
In a shop in Alley Way
But I never saw my face
In any window any day
Now they say your folks are telling you
To be a super star
But I tell you just be satisfied
Stay right where you are
Keep
yourself alive, keep yourself alive
It'll take all your time and a money
Honey you'll survive
Well
I've loved a million women
In a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners
Brought to me on silver trays
Give me ev'rything I need
To feed my body and my soul
And I'll grow a little bigger
Maybe that can be my goal
I was told a million times
Of all the people in my way
How I had to keep on trying
And get better ev'ry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I'd still be where I started
Same as where I started
Keep yourself alive, keep yourself alive
It'll take all your time and a money honey
You'll survive
Keep
yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
It'll take all your time and money
To keep me satisfied
Do you think you're better ev'ry day?
No I just think I'm two steps nearer to my grave
Keep Yourself Alive
Keep yourself alive mm
You take your time and take more money
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
It'll take all your time and a money
To keep me satisfied
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
Take you all your time and money honey
You will survive
Keep you satisfied
Keep you satisfied

14. I'm In Love With My Car
Oooh,
The machine of a dream, such a clean machine
With the pistons a pumpin', and the hubcaps all gleam
When I'm holding your wheel
All I hear is your gear
When my hands on your grease gun
Oh, its like a disease, son
I'm in love with my car, gotta feel for my automobile
Get a grip on my boy racer rollbar
Such a thrill when your radials squeal
Told

Rather buy me a new carburetor
So she made tracks sayin this is the end now
Cars don't talk back, they're just four wheeled friends now
When
I'm holding your wheel
All I hear is your gear
When I'm cruisin' in overdrive
Don't have to listen to no run of the mill talk jive
I'm
in love with my car, gotta feel for my automobile
I'm in love with my car, string back gloves in my automolove!
15. Put Out The Fire
They
called him a hero
In the land of the free
But he wouldn't shake my hand boy
He disappointed me
So I got my handgun and I blew him away
That critter was a bad guy
I had to make him pay
You might fear for my reason
I don't care what they say
Look out baby it's the season
For the mad masquerade
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
You need a bullet like a hole in the head
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
Don't believe what your granddaddy said
She was my lover
It was a shame that she died
But the constitutions right on my side
Cause I caught my lover in my neighbors bed
I got retribution, filled 'em all full of lead
I've been told it's the fashion
To let me on the streets again
It's nothing but a crime of passion
And I'm not to blame
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
You need a weapon like a hole in the head
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
And let your sons and your daughters
Sleep sound in their beds
You know a gun never killed nobody
You can ask anyone
People get shot by people, people with guns
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
You need a gun like a hole in the head
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
Put out the fire
Just tell me that old fashioned gun law, is dead
Take aim and fire
Shoot...
16. Headlong
And
you're rushing headlong you've got a new goal
And you're rushing headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping and there's nothing you can do about it
There's nothing you can do no there's nothing you can do about it
No there's nothing you can, nothing you can, nothing you can do about it
And you're rushing headlong you've got a new goal
And you're rushing headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping no there's nothing you can do about it - Yeah!
He used to be a man with a stick in his hand
Hoop diddy diddy - hoop diddy do
She used to be a woman with a hot dog stand
Hoop diddy diddy - hoop diddy doo
Now you got soup in the laundry bag
Now you've got strings, you're gonna lose your rag
You're getting in a fight
Then it ain't so groovy when you're screaming in the night
Let me out of this cheap 'B' movie
Headlong, down the highway
And you're rushing headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping and you can't stop rockin
And there's nothing you can nothing you can nothing
you can do about it
When a red hot man meets a white hot lady
Hoop diddy diddy - hoop diddy doo
Soon the fire starts a raging get's em more than half crazy
Hoop diddy diddy - hoop diddy doo
Now they start freakin everywhere you turn
You can't start walking cause your feet got burned
It ain't no time to figure wrong from right
Cause reasons out the window
Better hold on tight, your rushing headlong
Headlong, out of control, yeah
You think your so strong, but there ain't no stoppin
And there's nothin you, nothin you, nothin you can do about it at all
And
your rushing headlong down the highway
And you're rushing headlong out of control
And you think you're so strong
But there ain't no stopping
There's nothin, nothin, nothin you can do about it
Ooooooooh, ha ha!
Headlong...
17. It's Late
(Scene
1)
You say you love me and I hardly know your name
And if I say I love you in the candlelight
There's no one but myself to blame
But there's something inside that's turning my mind away
Oh how I could love you, if I could let you stay
It's
late-and I'm bleeding deep inside
It's late-is it just my stickly pride
Too late-even now the feeling seems to slip away
So late-though I'm crying I can't help you but hear you say
It's late, it's late, it's late but not too late
(Scene
2)
The way you love me is the sweetest love around
But after all this time, the more I'm trying
The more I seem to let you down
Now you tell me you're leaving
And I just can't believe it's true
Oh you know that I can love you
Though you know I can't be true
Oh you made me love you
Don't tell me that we're through
It's
late-and it's driving me so mad
It's late-yes I know but don't try to tell me that it's
Too late-save our love you can't turn out the light
So late-I've been wrong but I'll learn to be right
It's late, it's late, it's late but not too late
I've
been so long
You've been so long
We've been so long trying to work it out
I ain't got long
You ain't got long
We've gotta know what this life's all about
(Scene
3)
You're staring at me with suspicion in your eye
You say what game are you playing?
What's this that your saying?
I know that I can't reply
If I take you tonight
Is it making my life a lie?
Oh you made me wonder
Did I live my life alright
It's
late-but it's time to set me free
It's late-yes I know but there's no way it has to be
Too late-so let the fire take our bodies this night
So late-so let the waters take our guilt in the tide
It's late, it's late, it's late, it's late
It's late, it's late, it's late
It's all too late
18. No-One But You (Only The Good Die Young)
A
hand above the water
An angel reaching for the sky
Is it raining in Heaven -
Do you want us to cry?
And
everywhere the broken-hearted
On every lonely avenue
No-one could reach them
No-one but you
One by one
Only the Good die young
The're only flyin' too close to the sun
And life goes on
Without you...
Another
Tricky Situation
I get drownin' in the Blues
And I find myself thinkin'
Well - what would you do?
Yes!
- it was such an operation
Forever paying every due
Hell, you made a sensation
You found a way through - and
One by one
Only the Good die young
The're only flyin' too close to the sun
We'll remember -
Forever...
And
now the party must be over
I guess we'll never understand
The sense of your leaving
Was it the way it was planned?
And
so we grace another table
And raise our glasses one more time
There's a face at the window
And I ain't never, never sayin' goodbye
One
by one
Only the Good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
Cryin' for nothing
Cryin' for no-one
No-one
but you
