1. DON'T STOP THE SHOW

You're in for a cold shower
The man's gonna cut the power
Don't stop the show, don't stop the show

Come on baby you can fan the fire
Let the flame burn a little higher
Don't stop the show, don't stop the show

Yeah well in case of emergency
I'm gonna send in the kung-fu roadie
Don't stop the show, don't stop the show

Time time, who's got the time
Time time, we've got the time
We got about an hour to get things right
Keep that rock 'n roll music goin' through the long long hot night
I'm ready willing and able
I'm gonna spit it all over your table
Don't stop the show, don't stop the show
Let's go.....

Time time, who's got the time
Time time, we've got the time
We got about an hour to get things right
Keep that rock 'n roll music goin' through the long long hot night
I'm ready willing and able
I'm gonna spit it all over your table
Don't stop the show, don't stop the show
Come on, come on.....


2. MY TOWN

My town, is sittin' on the ocean
My town, paradise livin'
My town, my town is alright
I've got fine friends, livin' 'round the corner
Crazy friends, party every night
My friend, my friend, is alright

I'll give you some time to make up your mind
Give you some time to pack a samsonite
Gotta start lookin' for the signs
The signs leadin' to my town

We've got big girls sittin' in the red light
Pretty girls bakin' in the sunlight
Our girls, our girls are alright
I got no fear for the cops and the robber
I drink beer with the drunks and the dealer
Our town, my town is alright

Give me some time to make up your mind
Give me some time to pack a samsonite
We're all gonna set this city on fire
Come alive, down in my town
How about your town, baby
How about your town, baby
How about, how about......
My town, is floatin' down the river
My town, lies dreamin' in the valley
My town, my town is alright
We've got nightclubs, discotheques, theatres
Shoeshine and cheap parking meters
We've got hotels, motels, a line

Give you some time to make up your mind
Give you some time with a samsonite
We're gonna set this city on fire
We're on fire, down in my town
Get down to my town


3. NO FOR AN ANSWER

Hey operator, get me Valerie on the phone
Hey operator, I want Valerie on the phone right now
Mister navigator, I want location exact
Of where my Valerie's at
I see dials turnin'
I see a lighthouse burning
Nothin' happenin' yet, nothin' happenin' so far

Revelator, do your thing for me
Divine oracle, do your thing for me and my gal
I've been around the world

Yeah, hey operator, what's that you said to me
Hey operator, you can't say that to me
I see dials turnin'
I see a lighthouse burning
Nothin' happenin' yet, nothin' happenin' so far
I won't take no for an answer
Valerie is gonna say yes to me
Sweet, sweet Valerie,
She's gonna say yes to me


4. HEARTBEAT

It's move groove, move movin' inside of me
With a steady beat, I repeat steady beat
My little muscle man, little power-plant, don't step on it
Nothin' to compete, with that piece of meat, so complete

Here comes your doctor Moore
Best one you can afford
The good doctor's remedy
Don't need no education
Don't need no dedication
But I need my heartbeat

After makin' love next to me, I can feel your heartbeat
I love that motor drive, just for keepin' you alive
Mine's big enough and bad enough for the two of us
It's a dynamo, it's ruthless

Here comes your doctor Moore
Best one you can afford
The good doctor's remedy
Don't need no information
Don't need no conformation
But I need my heartbeat

It's move groove, move movin' inside of me
With a steady beat, I repeat steady beat
My little muscle man, little power-plant, don't step on it
Nothin' to compete, with that piece of meat, so complete

Here comes your doctor Moore
Best one you can afford
The good doctor's remedy
Don't need no imagination
Don't need justification
But I need my heartbeat


5. SAVE YOUR SKIN

The pity and the pleasure and the guilt and the pain
The sun and the moon and the stars in the rain
It's all the same
Goin' back to zero, the other side of life
With gasoline and neon lights, seeping through the night
On a color-slide
Hand that's holdin' a gun
It's the trigger-happy son
Another abnormality
A wolf among the sheep
It's the good time boy, girls toy
Takin' another chance
And there he goes
Do you think he knows
On and on he goes
Do you think it shows

Hold on he's coming back
Like a joker jumpin' out a the deck
Hit a lotta dust, hit it hard
Just to prove my lord he can take a lot
Dig it now you still can
Get a smoke-screen and a rifle-man
Holy Christ look at the state he's in
Save your skin, take my advice, and keep the kids inside
Save your skin, now you can, without an alibi
Save your skin, take my advice, and leave the dogs outside
'Cause here he comes
It's the demon man with the fire in his eyes
Checking out your lies one by one.

Soul kitchen's empty
Lotta contrast with last night
There's broken chairs and broken glasses
Everywhere in sight
Sunlight is blindin' my eyes, minute he walks in
How ya been?

Hold on, I'm coming back
Like a joker jumpin' out a the deck
Hit a lotta dust, hit it hard
Just to prove my lord I can take a lot
Dig it now you still can
Get a smoke-screen and a rifle-man
Holy Christ look at the state I'm in
Save your skin, take my advice, and keep the kids inside
Save your skin, now you can, without an alibi
Save your skin, take my advice, and leave the dogs outside
'cause here he comes
It's the demon man with the fire in his eyes
With the fire in his eyes

Save your skin, save your skin........


6. I DON'T WANNA BE NOBODY ELSE

Somebody asked me funny questions
If you could do it all over again
Would you go for the same thing
And if you could be somebody else
Would you hesitate, would you go ahead and change
You're not an animal
But if you could choose from all the zoo's
Which beast would you be
I don't wanna be nobody else
I don't wanna be nowhere else
I wouldn't be with you
I wanna be with you
If you could be livin' in a different age
A different time in history
Would you buy a time machine
And if they vote you for president
Would you go to walk
A bigger walk or would you make amends


7. LONG BLOND ANIMAL

Get out of my parlour, won't you
Get out of my life
Put on that crazy raincoat
You're gonna need it tonight

Get out of my parlour
For I cut you with a knife
Don't want your disease
Don't need your silly jive

I was an innocent by-stander
I was middle of the roadman for you
Then you took me for a ride, now baby
Showed me all the things you could do
I always listen to the good looking lady
A mistake I won't make no more
'Cause you might be a good-looking lady
You're rotten to the core
You're all fucked up

I've been under your influence
Under your spell too long
Now people keep me at a distance
Everything I do is wrong
My brain's disintegrating
Devil's singing my song
This cannot continue
This cannot go on
You're nothing but a long blond animal


8. PRISONER OF THE NIGHT

Shortcomings I can't explain
Of body and brain
I feel I'm caught inside a bubble
I suggest we're in trouble
Let's be optimistic, pessimistic makes me sick
C'mon optimistic, get up, get up, get up, make it big
I can't fight 'cause I'm a prisoner of the night
I can't fight 'cause I'm a prisoner of the night
Mean wheel, prisoner of the night
No deal, for a prisoner of the night
Runnin' real, prisoner of the night
Escape, when daylight strikes yeah
And you won't come down no more

Mean wheel, prisoner of the night
No deal, for a prisoner of the night
Runnin' real, prisoner of the night


9. WEEKEND LOVE

The sooner it will be the better
Gonna have to see you right away
It's been a long time since the day I met her
I can't handle being without her one more day
Gonna get the feeling that I'm going insane
Feel so stupid using these old cliché's
You better hurry up Baby, I ain't lying
We're down to nothing but a waste of time
Still remember everything she said
Make no promises and make no debts
All I want is just a one day weekend love

She sips her wine without a flinching
She's in control of it all the way
Looks so good, pretending that she's listening
By the time I fall asleep, she's gone away
She's got no mercy on a jealous heart
And she said it all right from the start
Make no promises and make no debts
But I love that lady, I got to confess
I want more than just a one day weekend love
All she wants is just my one day weekend love
I want more than just a one day weekend love
All she wants is just my one day weekend love


10. SLEEPWALKIN'

Last night's blind date
Hit me like a hand grenade
Blew holes in my soul
I'm on a love crusade

Wore my loves like a pair of gloves
But this time I'm going straight'
Cause I never felt this strange
I'm supposed to be skilled at the game
So once again it goes to show
You'll fall into the trap of love bow
Before you know

Sleepwalkin', but don't panic
We're on the Titanic
But don't you try to call my bluff
Both eyes shut travels hard enough

Sleepwalkin', don't panic
We're on the Titanic
Across the bridges 'round the poop
A fire escape won't hesitate

She's floating there, a living jewel
A gem that makes me lose my cool
It's no surprise I'm paralyzed
This vision's got me hypnotized
Remember your princely duty
Rescue that sleepin' beauty
And I never felt this strange
I'm supposed to be skilled at the game
So once again it goes to show
You'll fall into the trap of love bow
Before you know

Sleepwalkin', but don't panic
We're on the Titanic
But don't you try to call my bluff
With both eyes shut, travels hard enough

Sleepwalkin', don't panic
We're on the Titanic
Sleepwalkin', sleepwalkin'
Sleepwalkin', sleepwalkin'


11. I DO ROCK'N ROLL

I do rock 'n roll...
Can't help it, can't fight it
Nothing I can do without it
Can't help it , can't fight it
Nothing I can do without it

You're sorry you met me
Tomorrow you miss me
Tomorrow I'll kiss you goodbye
You're sorry you met me
Tomorrow you miss me
Tomorrow I'll kiss you goodbye
You can tell me why, tell me why

I do rock 'n roll...
You're sorry you met me
Tomorrow you miss me
Tomorrow I'll kiss you goodbye
You can tell me why , tell me why

I do rock 'n roll...Show me
Anything that you wanna do
We'll do it tonight, all night
Anything that you wanna do
It's all for you
You're sorry you met me
Tomorrow you miss me
Tomorrow I'll kiss you goodbye


12. SLOW DOWN

Well, come on pretty baby, won't you walk with me
Come on pretty baby, won't you talk with me
Come on pretty baby, give me one more chance
Try to save our romance
Slow down

Baby, now you're movin' way too fast
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'
Ooh!
If you want our love to last

Well, I used to walk you home, baby, after school
Carry your books home too
But now you got a boyfriend down the street
Baby what you're tryin' to do
You better slow down
Baby, now you're movin' way too fast
You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'
Ooh!
If you want our love to last
Well you know that I love you, tell the world I do
Come on pretty baby, why can't you be true
I need you baby, oh so bad
You're the best little woman I ever had
Slow down....


13. BUDDY JOE

Let me tell you about Buddy Joe
When he came down from Mexico
With his pockets full of gold
With his pockets full of gold

Have you something to declare
Are you sure there's nothing there
'Cos if there is, don't say
You've not been told

Oh, Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
Well, I don't really know

Well Buddy Joe searched all his life
Through Mexico, all the riversides
Not for the money, but for the gold
He needs to hold

Well Buddy Joe was proud as he was
Could not stand all the fuss
When they got to all his gold
He was ready to go

Oh, Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I don't really know

Well you'll understand he didn't stand a chance
Everybody was shouting commands
When Buddy Joe split in a hurry
He was ready to be buried

Oh Buddy Joe
What have they done with the gold
I don't really know


14. BACK HOME

Goin' back right through the city
Through the country, rivers so pretty
People wonder why I'm going back home
Just the place where I belong

Back home, back home,
Back home, back home

Well I'm a round the world rambler
Just a fortune gambler
It's always good to be back home

'Round and 'round, the world goes 'round
Got my friends in every town
From border to border, every place I've been
I've gotta be back if you know what I mean

Back home, back home,
Back home, back home

Well I'm a round the world rambler
Just a fortune gambler
It's always good to be back home
