Instrumental Version (Intro)
It's Alright
I want you in my arms tonight You know you whet my appetite It might be wrong for us to care And maybe something's in the air But if the world is unaware It's alright Please say it's alright You'll be mine tonight It's going to be alright I won't care if we fall in love I'll be happy with the memory of The thought of just one night of bliss We can't give up a chance like this So just go on and whisper it's It's alright Please say it's alright You'll be mine tonight It's going to be alright I want you in my arms tonight You know you set my heart alight It can't be like this everyday And soon you'll be so far away So now I want to hear you say It's alright Please say it's alright You'll be mine tonight It's going to be alright Don't want to make a main feature with you Ah but you know there's a time and a place You can't resist it when you're feeling it too I can tell by the smile on your face We both know that it will be OK So don't you let this moment slip away Don't have a problem when it's all in the mind Yes but we can make it very real this time
Not The Moment
I can't believe what you're saying about me I can't believe it's true You know you never should doubt me And take this attitude You say there's something between us That something just ain't right But every time I ask you to tell me why You say it's not the moment You say it's not the moment You say you're tired of walking on eggshells And falling in between That I'm two-timing you but you know quite well That's just not my scene And now my friends are starting to call me They say there's something wrong Ah, but you just continue to stall me You say it's not the moment You say it's not the moment Yeah we need to talk this through I do depend on you So let it out and try to clear the air I've got nothing I should hide I'm burning up inside But you just act like you don't even care Well I know sometimes it ain't easy I know you're feeling bad But you know it's the wrong time to tease me It just gets me mad I'm going to find out sooner or later Just what you're trying to say So when I ask you now for just one more time Don't say it's not the moment Don't say it's not the moment Yeah we need to talk this through I do depend on you So let it out and try to clear the air I've got nothing I should hide I'm burning up inside But you just act like you don't even care Told you I would be your friend Be there to the very end And then you had to let me down And go spreading dirty words around
Bloody Well Right
So you think your schooling's phoney I guess it's hard not to agree You say it all depends on money And who is in your family tree Right, you're bloody well right You got a bloody right to say Right, you're bloody well right You know you got a right to say Ha-ha you're bloody well right You know you're right to say Yeah-yeah you're bloody well right You know you're right to say Me, I don't care anyway! Write your problems down in detail Take them to a higher place You've had your cry - no, I should say wail In the meantime hush your face Right, you're bloody well right You got a bloody right to say Right, you're bloody well right You know you got a right to say Ha-ha you're bloody well right You know you're right to say Yeah-yeah you're bloody well right You know you got a right to say You got a bloody right to say You got a bloody right to say You got a bloody right to say You got a bloody right to say
Breakfast In America
Take a look at my girlfriend She's the only one I got Not much of a girlfriend Never seem to get a lot Take a jumbo cross the water Like to see America See the girls in California I'm hoping it's going to come true But there's not a lot I can do Could we have kippers for breakfast Mummy dear, Mummy dear They got to have 'em in Texas Cos everyone's a millionaire I'm a winner, I'm a sinner Do you want my autograph I'm a loser, what a joker I'm playing my jokes upon you While there's nothing better to do Don't you look at my girlfriend She's the only one I got Not much of a girlfriend Never seem to get a lot Take a jumbo cross the water Like to see America See the girls in California I'm hoping it's going to come true But there's not a lot I can do
From Now On
Monday has come around again I'm in the same old place With the same old faces always watching me Who knows how long I'll have to stay Could be a hundred years of sweat and tears At the rate that I get paid Sometimes I slowly drift away From all the dull routine That's with me every day A fantasy will come to me Diamonds are what I really need Think I'll rob a store, escape the law And live in Italy Lately my luck has been so bad You know the roulette wheel's A crooked deal, I'm loosing all I had Soon be like a man that's on the run And live from day to day Never needing anyone Play hide and seek, throughout the week My life is full of romance Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy That's the way it's got to be From now on Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy No it won't be really me From now on You think I'm crazy I can see It's you for you, and me for me Living in a fantasy From now on Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy That's the way it's got to be From now on Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy It's you for you, and me for me From now on Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy That's the way it's got to be From now on Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy It's you for you, and me for me From now on Guess I'll always have to be Living in a fantasy That's the way it's got to be From now on
Free As A Bird
When a spirit is broken Why go on When there's nothing to say And a love just a token It was strong Now it's fading away Ah but I'm free as a bird As I walk right out that door You have my word I won't bother you no more Yes I'm doing alright As I face the lonely night And our love it was over Long ago But we just didn't say And the years they have fallen One by one How they drifted away But now I'm free as a bird As I walk out that door You have my word I won't bother you no more Yes I'm feeling OK As I face the brand new day As I face the brand new day You know I'm free as a bird As I walk right out that door You have my word I won't bother you no more Yes I'm doing alright As I face the lonely night As I face the lonely night No more sorrows will I find I've got tomorrow on my side No more teardrops will I cry Left my teardrops way behind No more sorrows will I find I've got tomorrow on my side No more teardrops will I cry Left my teardrops way behind No more heartaches bother me Don't wear my heartaches on my sleeve It's gonna be a brand new story What's the use of former glory It's better not to do if you can't do right It's time to get to celebrating After all the years of waiting I'm gonna have a ball if it takes all night
Oh Darling
Oh darling, will you ever change your mind I've been feeling left behind Like a shadow in your light Ah honey won't you say that I'm the one And if you think you're gonna run Well you know I'm gonna be around you, all about you Always by your side I'm gonna dream about you, scheme about you Love you all the time I'm gonna catch you lady Catch you lady The news is all over town You better not let me down Keep telling me you're feeling good As good as you ever could Please tell me that you'll never go Ah ah no no Ah lately, I'm like a watch that's overwound And I've got both feet off the ground Because you see I'm gonna be so busy, oh my pretty Love you night and day And through the rain and shine I'll make you mine I'll love you come what may I'm gonna catch you lady, catch you lady Catch you lady uh huh ...
Just Another Nervous Wreck
I'm feeling so alone now They cut the telephone uh huh Yeah my life is just a mess I threw it all away now I could have made a fortune I lost the craving for success And as the acrobats they tumble So the corn begins to crumble While in the mirror She admires a brand new dress Live on the second floor now They're trying to bust the door down Soon I'll have a new address So much for liberation They'll have a celebration Yeah I've been under too much stress And as the clouds begin to rumble So the juggler makes his fumble And the sun upon my wall is getting less Don't, give a damn Fight, while you can Kill, shoot 'em up They'll run amuck Shout, Judas Loud, they'll hear us Soldier, sailor Who's your tailor They'll run for cover when they discover Everyone's a nervous wreck now I used to think she was so nimble Would have bought her as symbol But now I can't afford the pen to sign her checks Don't, give a damn Fight, while you can Kill, shoot 'em up They'll run amuck Shout, Judas Loud, they'll hear us Soldier, sailor Who's your tailor They'll run for cover when they discover Everyone's a nervous wreck now Life's just a bummer they got your number We'll give as good as we get now Rise from the gutter, stick with each other We'll drive 'em over the edge now They're gonna bleed, that's what they need We'll get together and blow their cover We're ready Yeah we're ready Yeah we're ready ...
The Logical Song
When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful, A miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, Joyfully, playfully watching me But they sent me away to teach me how to be sensible, Logical, responsible, practical And then they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, Clinical, intellectual, cynical There are times when all the world's asleep, The questions run too deep For such a simple man Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd But please tell me who I am... Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical, Liberal, fanatical, criminal Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're Acceptable, respecable, oh presentable, a vegetable! At night, when all the world's asleep, The questions run so deep For such a simple man Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd But please tell me who I am...
I'm Your Hoochie Coochie Man
Gypsy woman told my mother, before I was born You've got a boy child coming, he's gonna be a son of a gun He's gonna make all you women, all jump and shout The world's gonna know, what that's all about I'm a here, everybody knows I'm here I'm your hoochie coochie man, everybody knows I'm here I got a black cat bone, got a mojo too If you got a jug of kangaroo, I'm gonna mess with you I'm gonna love all you women, just like a man Then the world will know, I'm a hoochie coochie man I'm here, everybody knows I'm here I'm a hoochie coochie man and everybody knows I'm here On the seventh hour, on the seventh month On the seventh day, the seven doctors say He was born for good luck, and as you see I got seven hundred dollars, don't plan to mess with me I'm a here, everybody knows I'm here I'm a hoochie coochie man, everybody knows I'm here
Don't You Lie To Me
Crime Of The Century
Now they're planning the crime of the century Well what will it be? Read all about their schemes and adventuring It's well worth the fee So roll up and see And they rape the universe How they've gone from bad to worse Who are these men of lust, greed, and glory? Rip off the masks and let's see But that's no right - oh no, what's the story? There's you and there's me That can't be right
