Friday night and I need a fight

My motorcycle and a switchblade knife

Handful of grease in my hair feels right

But what I need to make me tight are those

 

Girls, Girls, Girls

Long legs and burgundy lips

Girls,Girls, Girls

Dancin' down on Sunset Strip

Girls, Girls, Girls

Red lips, fingertips

 

Trick or treat-sweet to eat

On Halloween and New Year's Eve

Yankee girls ya just can't be beat

But they're the best when they're off their feet

 

Girls, Girls, Girls

At the Dollhouse in Ft. Lauderdale

Girls, Girls. Girls

Rocking in Atlanta at Tattletails

Girls, Girls, Girls

Raising Hell in the 7th Veil

Have you read the news

In the Soho Tribune

Ya know she did me

Well then she broke my heart

 

I'm such a good good boy

I just need a new toy

I tell ya what, girl

Dance for me, I'll keep you overemployed

Just tell me a story

You know the one I mean

 

Crazy Horse, Paris, France

Forgot the names, remember romance

I got the photos, a menage a troi

Musta broke those Frenchies laws with those

 

Girls, Girls, Girls

Body Shop and the Marble Arch

Girls, Girls, Girls

Tropicana's where I lost my heart

 

Girls, Girls, Girls

 

Vince:

Hey Tommy, check that out man!

Tommy:

Where Vince?! Where? Oh (Tommy whistles)

Vince:

Right there man! Hey baby, you wanna go somewhere?

(Tommy does the "sexy" whistle)

 

Girls, Girls, Girls...

 

Girls, Girls, Girls...

Kneel down ye sinners, to

Streetwise religion

Greed's been crowned the new King

Hollywood's dream teens

Yesterday's trash queens

Save the blessings for the final ring-

AMEN

 

Take a ride on the Wild Side

Wild side

 

I carry my crusifix

Under my deathlist

Forward my mail to me in hell

Liars and the martyrs

Lost faith in The Father

Long lost in the wishing well

 

Take a ride on the Wild Side

Wild side

 

Fallen Angels

So fast to kill

thy kingdom come on the wild side

Our father

Who ain't in heaven

plead my name on on the wild side Holy Mary

Mother may I

Pray for us on the wild side

Wild side. Wild side

 

Name dropping no-names

Glamorized cocaine

Puppets with strings of gold

East L.A. at midnight

Papa won't be home tonight

Found dead with his best friend's wife

 

Take a ride on the Wild Side

Wild side

 

Take a ride on the wild side

wild side

 

Gang fights

Fatal strikes

We lie on the wild side

No escape

Murder rape

Doing time on the wild side

A baby cries

A cop dies

a days pay on the wild side

Wild side, wild side

tragic life on the wild side

Wild side, wild side

kickin'ass on the Wild Side

show me

show me

show me

how you do that trick

the one that makes me scream

she said

the one that makes me laugh

she said

and threw her arms around my neck

 

show me how you do it

and i promise you

i promise that i'll run away with you

i'll run away with you

 

spinning on that dizzy edge

i kissed her face and kissed her head

and dreamed of all the different ways i had

to make her glow

why are you so far away?

she said

why won't you ever know that i'm in love with you?

that i'm in love with you?

 

you

soft and only

you

lost and lonely

you

strange as angels

dancing in the deepest oceans

twisting in the water

you're just like a dream...

you're just like a dream...

 

daylight licked me into shape

i must have been asleep for days

and moving lips to breathe her name

i opened up my eyes

and found myself alone

alone

alone

above a raging sea

that stole the only girl i loved

and drowned her deep inside of me

 

you

soft and only

you

lost and lonely

you

just like heaven

"i think it's dark and it looks like rain"

you said

"and the wind is blowing like it's the end of the world"

you said

"and it's so cold

it's like the cold if you were dead"

and then you smiled

for a second

 

"i think i'm old and i'm feeling pain"

you said

"and it's all running out like it's the end of the world"

you said

"and it's so cold it's like the cold if you were dead"

and then you smiled

for a second

 

sometimes you make me feel

like i'm living at the edge of the world

like i'm living at the edge of the world

"it's just the way i smile"

you said

remember the time that you rained all night

the queen of siam in my arms

remember the time that the islands sank

but nobody opened their eyes

 

remember that time that the trees fell down

the wood crashing through the wall

remember the sound that could wake the dead

but nobody woke up at all

 

somebody died for this

somebody died for just one kiss

 

remember the time that the sky went black

we waited alone on the sands

remember the taste of the raging sea

but nobody held out their hands

 

somebody died for this

somebody died

for just one kiss

 

just one kiss

just one kiss

i've been watching me fall for it seems like years

watching me grow small, i watch me disappear

slipping out my ordinary world, out my ordinary eyes

yeah slipping out the ordinary me into someone else's life

into someone else's life...

 

there's a thin white cold new moon and the snow is coming down

and the neon bright tokyo lights flicker through the crowd

i've been drifting around for hours and i'm lost and i'm tired

when a whisper in my ear insatiable breathes

"why don't you follow me inside?..."

 

yeah the room is small, the room is bright

her hair is black, the bed is white

and the night is always young

is always young... always young

the night is always young...

 

yeah i've been seeing them strip to the bone in the mirror on the wall

seeing her swallow him whole like it's not me at all

she holds out her hands and i follow her down to my knees

and the sucking inside insatiable smiles

"you will forget yourself in me..."

 

yeah the room is small, the room is bright

her eyes are black, the bed is white

and the night is always young

and the night goes on and on

and the night is always young

and the night is never over and over and over and over and over...

 

and this it's gone

and this it's gone

yeah then it's gone

 

yeah it's a cruel mean cold new day and outside the snow is still coming down

and in the blood red tokyo bed i watch me coming round

she pulled him down for hours

deeper than i've ever been

and as i fall in the mirror on the wall

i'm watching me scream

i'm watching me scream

i'm watching me scream

 

i'm watching me scream

 

yeah i've been watching me go for it must be years

watching me get slow, i watch me disappear

and one day, yeah i know, i won't come back at all...

and always over and over in his ordinary eyes

i'm watching me fall

i'm watching me fall

i'm watching me fall

 

i'm watching me fall

and tall as men

and swaying like the wind torn trees

she talked about the empty world

with eyes like poisoned birds

 

she talked about the armies

that marched inside her head

and how they made her dreams go bad

but oh!

how happy she was!

how proud she was!

to be fighting in the war

in the empty world!

let me take your hand

i'm shaking like milk

turning

turning blue

all over the windows and the floors

fires outside in the sky

look as perfect as cats

the two of us together again

but it's just the same

a stupid game

 

but i don't care if you don't

and i don't feel if you don't

and i don't want it if you don't

and i won't say it

if you don't say it first

 

you think you're tired now

but wait until six...

laughing at the christmas lights

you remember

from december

 

all of this then back again

another girl

another name

stay alive but stay the same

it's just the same

a stupid game

 

but i don't care if you don't

and i don't feel if you don't

and i don't want it if you don't

and i won't play it

if you don't play it first

 

you can't even see now

so you ask me the way

you wonder if it's real

because it couldn't be rain...

through the right doorway

and into the white room

it used to be the dust that would lay here

when i came here alone

 

but i don't care if you don't

and i don't feel if you don't

and i don't want it if you don't

and i won't say it

if you don't say it first

 

doo doo doo doo

go go go!

push him away

no no no!

don't let him stay...

 

he gets inside to stare at her

the seeping mouth

the mouth that knows

the secret you

always you

a smile to hide the fear away

oh! smear this man across the walls

like strawberries and cream

it's the only way to be

 

exactly the same clean room

exactly the same clean bed

but i've stayed away too long this time

and i've got too big to fit this time...

i've waited hours for this

i've made myself so sick

i wish i'd stayed

asleep today

 

i never thought this day would end

i never thought tonight could ever be

this close to me

 

just try to see in the dark

just try to make it work

to feel the fear before you're here

i make the shapes come much too close

i pull my eyes out

hold my breath

and wait until i shake...

 

but if i had your faith

then i could make it safe and clean

if only i was sure

that my head on the door was a dream

the look before i go

is the look for you

you only have to look and it will all come true

and we can fall outside

into the fizzy night

or pull me down in here

you know it's all the same

i only want to see if you are happy again

or we can roll around

and find out upside down

 

a few hours after this and we're apart again

like two white checks

like opposite poles

in a secret game

(like nothing like these i suppose... )

i really should have known by the cut of your smile

that the answer would be simple

it still took you a while to get it out of me

i thought you'd do it easily

 

just put your hands around my heart

and squeeze me until i'm dry

i never thought you'd ever start to ever ask me why...

 

i never saw you again

"Don't look don't look" the shadows breathe

Whispering me away from you

"Don't wake at night to watch her sleep

You know that you will always lose

This trembling adored

Tousled bird mad girl... "

But every night I burn

Every night I call your name

Every night I burn

Every night I fall again

 

"Oh don't talk of love" the shadows purr

Murmuring me away from you

"Don't talk of worlds that never were

The end is all that's ever true

There's nothing you can ever say

Nothing you can ever do... "

Still every night I burn

Every night I scream your name

Every night I burn

Every night the dream's the same

Every night I burn

Waiting for my only friend

Every night I burn

Waiting for the world to end

 

"Just paint your face" the shadows smile

Slipping me away from you

"Oh it doesn't matter how you hide

Find you if we're wanting to

So slide back down and close your eyes

Sleep a while you must be tired... "

But every night I burn

Every night I call your name

Every night I burn

Every night I fall again

Every night I burn

Scream the animal scream

Every night I burn

Dream the crow black dream

Every night I burn

Scream the animal scream

Every night I burn

Dream the crow black dream

 

Dream the crow black dream...

Dream the crow black dream...

Dream the crow black dream...

Dream the crow black dream...

Meeting you, with a view to a kill

These two faces, secret places, feel the chill.

Night fall covers me, but you know the plans I'm making,

Still oversea, could it be the whole earth opening wide

A sacred wide, A mystery gaping inside

The weekends wide!

 

Until we dance into the fire

The fatal kiss is all we need

Dance into the fire,

Two fatal sounds of broken dreams

Dance into the fire,

That fatal kiss is all we need

Dance into the fire.....

 

Just for you, is the view to a kill

A stray in the shade, assassination standing still.

Earth's crystal tears, falling snowflakes on your body

First time in years, to drench your skin in lovers' rosy stain

A chance to find your feelings for the flame,

A chance to die...

 

Again we dance into the fire

That fatal kiss is all we need

Dance into the fire

Two fatal sounds of broken dreams

Dance into the fire

That fatal kiss is all we need

Dance into the fire

When all we see.. is the view to a kill

Wild kind of look to the day, opening eyes impale neon flickers

She moon, she turning away,

The city's her slave, he's cheating his mistress

She's moody and grey, she's mean and she's restless

(so restless, so restless indeed)

 

All over you as they say,

Rumours or rivals yell at the strike force -

Hi guys, by the way, are you aware you're being illegal (ooh)

It's making your saviour behaviour look evil

'scuse my timing but say,

How d'you fit in with this flim, flam and judy

 

Maximum big suprise your smile is something new

I pull my shirt off and pray,

We're sacred and bound to suffer the heatwave

Pull my shirt off and pray,

We're coming up on re-election day

 

 

Stretching my love down the way

To your invitation stretching my body

Use your intuitive play

Cause maybe we have more play time than money

 

Maximum big suprise she knows something new

I pull my shirt off and pray,

I'm saving myself to suffer the heatwave

Pull my shirt off and pray,

We're coming up on re-election day

 

 

By roads and backways a lover's chance, down a wind

Curtain murmurs and sounds be calm hands on skin

Carry further.. entangled strands.. all sing!

Time, saving some time to slip away we could dance ..

 

Oh! Shouldn't be asking..

Wild and scheming

Could be my election day

 

 

Maximum big suprise you know something new

I pull my shirt off and pray,

We're sacred and bound to suffer this heatwave

Pull my shirt off and pray

We're coming up on re-election day

 

Oww

Re-election day

Owwoooaa

Sometimes you have no choice

Sometimes you've got no voice to say

Say if you will the words,

Say if your world is so gray

We can decide this,

There'll be no tears - no tradgedy

Sure I wouldn't break and cry, if...

You walk away, believe me.

 

Hey, goodbye goodbye is forever ah

Hey, forever goodbye is forever and ever.. ah-ah-ahh

 

Sometimes it makes no sense,

This side of cruel coincidence

Caught up in our own barbed wire

To set us free believe this -

 

Mmmmm ohhh ohhhh

ohhhoooo mmmmmmm

oh-oh Mmmm oooh

We want to multiply, are you gonna do?

I know you qualify, are you gonna do?

Don't be so circumscribe, are you gonna do it?

Just get yourself untied, are you gonna do it?

 

Feel the heat, pushing you to decide

Feel the heat, burning you up, ready or not

 

Some like it hot and some sweat when the heat is on

Some feel the heat and decide that they can't go on

Some like it hot, but you can't tell how hot 'til you try

Some like it hot, so lets turn up the heat 'til we fry

 

The girl is at your side, are you gonna do?

She wants to be your bride, are you gonna do it?

She wants to multiply, are you gonna do it?

I know you won't be satisfied, until you do it!

 

Feel the heat, pushing you to decide

Feel the heat, burning you up, ready or not

 

Feel the heat, pushing you to decide

Clad in black,

Of the hydra upon you

You're dirty sweet

You're built like a car

You're built like a truck, oh my

You're an untamed youth

That's the truth

With your cloak full of eagles

You're dirty sweet

And you're my girl

 

Well you're windy and wild

You got the blues -

I'm in your shoes and your stockings

You're windy and wild, oh yeah

 

You're built like a car

You got a hubcap -

Diamond star halo

You're dirty sweet

And you're my girl

 

Get it on!

How many times

Do we tire of all the little battles

Threaten to call it quits

Tempted to cut and run

How many times

Do we weather out the stormy evenings

Long to slam the front door

Drive away into the setting sun

 

Keep going on till dawn

How many times must another line be drawn

We could be down and gone

But we hold on

 

How many times

Do we chafe against the repetition

Straining against a fate

Measured out in coffee breaks

How many times

Do we swallow our ambition

Long to give up the same old way

Find another road to take

 

Keep holding on so long

'Cause there's a chance that we might not be so wrong

We could be down and gone

But we hold on

 

How many times

Do we wonder if it's even worth it

Theres got to be some other way

Way to get me through the day

 

Keep going on till dawn

How many times must another line be drawn

We could be down and gone

But we hold on ph34r.gif 2.gif

I. Prelude

When our weary world was young

The struggle of the Ancients first began

The Gods of Love and Reason

Sought alone to rule the fate of Man

 

They battled through the ages

But still neither force would yield

The people were divided

Every soul a battlefield...

 

II. Apollo Bringer of Wisdom

'I bring Truth and Understanding

I bring Wit and Wisdom fair

Precious gifts beyond compare

We can build a world of wonder

I can make you all aware'

 

'I will find you food and shelter

Show you fire to keep you warm

Through the endless winter storm

You can live in grace and comfort

In the world that you transform.'

 

The people were delighted

Coming forth to claim their prize

They ran to build their cities

And converse among the wise

 

But one day the streets fell silent

Yet they knew not what was wrong

The urge to build these fine things

Seemed not to be so strong

 

The wise men were consulted

And the Bridge of Death was crossed

In quest of Dionysus

To find out what they had lost...

 

III. Dionysus Bringer of Love

'I bring Love to give you solace

In the darkness of the night

In the Heart's eternal light

You need only trust your feelings;

Only Love can steer you right'

 

'I bring Laughter, I bring Music

I bring Joy and I bring Tears

I will soothe your primal fears

Throw off those chains of Reason

And your prison disappears'

 

The cities were abandoned

And the forests echoed song

They danced and lived as brothers;

They knew Love could not be wrong

 

Food and wine they had aplenty

And they slept beneath the stars

The people were contented

And the Gods watched from afar

 

But the winter fell upon them

And it caught them unprepared

Bringing wolves and cold starvation

And the hearts of men despaired...

 

IV. Armageddon The Battle of Heart and Mind

The Universe divided

As the Heart and Mind collided

With the people left unguided

For so many troubled years

In a cloud of doubts and fears

Their world was torn asunder

Into hollow hemispheres

 

Some fought themselves, some fought each other

Most just followed one another

Lost and aimless like their brothers

For their Hearts were so unclear

And the Truth could not appear

Their spirits were divided

Into blinded hemispheres

 

Some who did not fight

Brought tales of old to light

My 'Rocinante' sailed by night

On her final flight

To the heart of Cygnus' fearsome force

We set our course

Spiralled through that timeless space

To this immortal place

 

V. Cygnus Bringer of Balance

I have memory and awareness

But I have no shape or form

As a disembodied spirit

I am dead and yet unborn

 

I have passed into Olympus

As was told in tales of old

To the city of Immortals

Marble white and purest gold

 

I see the Gods in battle rage on high

Thunderbolts across the sky

I cannot move, I cannot hide

I feel a silent scream begin inside

 

Then all at once the Chaos ceased

A stillness fell, a sudden peace

The Warriors felt my silent cry

And stayed their struggle, mystified

 

Apollo was atonished

Dionysus thought me mad

But they heard my story further

And they wondered, and were sad

 

Looking down from Olympus

On a world of doubt and fear

Its surface splintered

Into sorry hemispheres

 

They sat a while in silence

Then they turned at last to me

'We will call you Cygnus,

The god of Balance you shall be'

 

VI. The Sphere A Kind of Dream

We can walk our road together

If our goals are all the same

We can run alone and free

If we pursue a different aim

 

Let the truth of love be lighted

Let the love of truth shine clear

Sensibility

Armed with sense and liberty

With the Heart and Mind united

In a single perfect sphere

There's no bread, let them eat cake

There's no end to what they'll take

Flaunt the fruits of noble birth

Wash the salt into the earth

But they're marching to Bastille Day

La guillotine will claim her bloody prize

Free the dungeons of the innocent

The king will kneel, and let his kingdom rise

 

Bloodstained velvet, dirty lace

Naked fear on every face

See them bow their heads to die

As we would bow as they rode by

 

And we're marching to Bastille Day

La guillotine will claim her bloody prize

Sing, o choirs of cacophony

The king has kneeled, to let his kingdom rise.

 

Lessons taught but never learned

All around us anger burns

Guide the future by the past

Long ago the mould was cast

 

For they marched up to Bastille Day

La guillotine - claimed her bloody prize

Hear the echoes of the centuries

Power isn't all that money buys

Now it's come to this

It's like we're back in the Dark Ages

From the Middle East to the Middle West

It's a world of superstition

 

Now it's come to this

Wide-eyed armies of the faithful

From the Middle East to the Middle West

Pray, and pass the ammunition

 

So many people think that way

You gotta watch what you say

To them and them, and others too

Who don't seem to see to things the way you do

 

We can only grow the way the wind blows

on a bare and weathered shore

We can only bow to the here and now

In our elemental war

 

We can only go the way the wind blows

We can only bow to the here and now

Or be broken down blow by blow

 

Now it's come to this

Hollow speeches of mass deception

From the Middle East to the Middle West

Like crusaders in a holy alliance

 

Now it's come to this

Like we're back in the dark ages

From the Middle East to the Middle West

It's a plague that resists our science

 

It seems to leave them partly blind

And they leave no child behind

While evil spirits haunt their sleep

While shepherds bless and count their sheep

 

Like the solitary pine

On a bare wind blasted shore

We can only grow the way the wind blows

Who's come to slay the dragon-

Come to watch him fall?

Making arrows out of pointed words

Giant killers at the call

Too much fuss and bother

Too much contradiction and confusion

Peel away the mystery

Here's a clue to some real motivation

 

All there really is

The two of us

And we both know why we've come along

Nothing to explain

It's a part of us

To be found within a song

 

What happened to our innocence-

Did it go out of style?

Along with our naivete'-

No longer a child

Different eyes see different things

Different hearts beat on different strings

But there are times

For you and me

When all such things agree.

Ten score years ago, defeat the kingly foe

A wondrous dream came into being

Tame the trackless waste, no virgin land left chaste

All shining eyes, but never seeing

 

Beneath the noble bird

Between the proudest words

Behind the beauty, cracks appear

Once, with heads held high

They sang out to the sky

Why do their shadows bow in fear?

 

Watch the cities rise

Another ship arrives

Earth's melting pot and ever growing

Fantastic dreams come true

Inventing something new

The greatest minds, and never knowing...

 

The guns replace the plow, facades are tarnished now

The principles have been betrayed

The dreams's gone stale, but still, let hope prevail

History's debt won't be repaid
