1. ANGEL

Oh, oh, fly angel fly
Angel, angeeeellll, angeeeeeelllllllll!

The one time I didn't know what to do
I had a problem with my attitude
'Cos I never had, never had
The young man blues, the blues before
Well I know it means none, none to you
Everyman's gotta walk in his own shoes
Ain't that hard, it sure is hard to see
Straight from the heart

I can't find nothing on my shopping list
I only keep hammerin' the nail I miss
I just cannot help, believin',
That heaven is a hard on
Well I know it don't mean a damn to you
The left hand guessin' what the right will do
Now ain't that, ain't that,
The way it is, as a matter of fact
Straight from the heart

While I'm floating like a swan on a waterbed
Drowning in a pond, in a pool of regret
I'm tryin' to remember not to forget
How you bring me down with your kiss of death
Angel, angel, angel, angeeeeeellllllll

I'm entertaining all the Gods for you
Buddha and Jesus and the other one too
Now ain't that, ain't that
Like apple juice, forbidden fruit
Moon jump, flyin' back to the sun
Cool burn visible for everyone
And the blood flows, don't you know
All through your body and back to your soul
Straight from the heart

While I'm floating like a swan on a waterbed
Drownin' in a pond, in a pool of regret
I'm tryin' to remember not to forget
How you bring me down, with your kiss of death
Angel, angel, angel, angeeeeeeellllllll


2. TURN THE WORLD AROUND

I believe that all around
We're all waiting for a sound
That will break the barriers down
And will make us all feel better
After all the madness' gone
After all I feel it's coming
There's a slogan on the wall
Like a finger on a trigger
There's a truth behind it all
I believe it's getting bigger
But it's all up to you, and it's all up to me
Yeah it's all up to me

Your sweet talking babe, won't turn the world around
Meet me underground, turn the world around
Climb a mountain yeah, cry me an ocean too
Turn the world around, turn the world around
There's no problem babe, you're right, I'm wrong
Let's strike a bargain, 'cause together we're strong

All your sense, all your love
Can't stop the fire from above
Don't you know, when I go
You're gonna go too
Let's turn the world around

Darlin' daughter, I've been told
Gettin' younger, turnin' old
Hides a moment, caught in time
In a mirror that's gone blind
I can see inside my minds' eye
We may get the future right
There's a slogan on the wall
Like a finger on a trigger
There's a truth behind it all
Everyday it's getting bigger
But it's all up to you
And it's all up to me

Don't say impossible, when it's possible
We're responsible, let's turn the world around
Only one light to follow, only one dream to share
Let's strike a bargain, it's gonna get us there

All your sense, all your love....


3. VINCE TAYLOR

She had the whole world in her dress
She put my fingers to the test
She made me grease, my hair
She got me wearing leather
Oh we danced till the music faded
We loved, and the taxi waited
You turn me round and round and round
Got me doing like I never did before
You take me upside down, bring me outside in
Got me going like I never came before
Just like Vince Taylor
You said I was your private monkey
And you smiled when I tried to be funky
And I never knew the score
Just like vince Taylor
Still got the chains hung down my vest
Since you said I could have been the best
You turn me round and round and round
Got me doing like I never did before
You take me upside down, bring me outside in
Got me going like I never came before
Just like vince Taylor


4. I'VE JUST LOST SOMEBODY

She came down from far away and smiled at me
In one moment I found out how love can be
Then I realized that she had gone again
I've just lost somebody
A-ha, please let me dream

Though I know that love ever happened this way
I'll be here untill she will return one day
Here low, I am dreaming, she must appear again
I've just lost somebody
A-ha, please let me dream

She came down from far away and smiled at me
In one moment I found out how love can be
Then I realized that she had gone again
I've just lost somebody
A-ha, please let me dream


5. SLEEPWALKING

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'


6. NEED HER

I'm not into false feelings of self-pity
And I don't cry that much
But I feel like a cripple
A little orphan that's lost his little crutch
Isn't it true she's a lyin' suicidal fool
Always testin' her luck
And when I'm with her
I wanna be without her again
As soon as I can before I get stuck

Need her to make my life more complicated
Need her to get myself all constipated
Need her like a knife stickin' in my back
Need her to get me off the right track
I need her chokin' me to the death

Missiles and rockets hidden in her pockets
And I'm tryin' to stay out a range
But she says I'm an amateuristic son of a bitch
And she scores another point again
When she slams the door behind her
And I know I won't see her for at least another month or so
My blood starts boilin' and I feel like screamin'
That I goddamn need her so
But when I'm with her
I wanna be without her again
As soon as I can
That's the way it always goes


7. THE THIEF

The Thief is in the parking lot
The thief is at your door
The thief, he leaves the broken glass
While you been scrapin' dollars
Just to pay high rent
He comes a-prowlin' in the dead of night

La la la la la la la la la la

The thief is in without a knock
The thief is on the stairs
Guess who's here to ruin your life
He just come and go without leavin' fingerprints
And never say goodbye

La la la la la la la la la la

Take what's mine - everything I live for
Take your time - all that you desire
Take what's mine, but you can't have my soul

So all you pretty girls
And all you handsome boys
Hold on to your heart
When you hear suspicious noise yeah

La la la la la la la la la la

Take what's mine - nothin' left to live for
Take what's mine - sneakin' out the window
Take what's mine, Take your time
Take what's mine - everything I paid for
Take your time - leave me on the sidewalk
Take what's mine, Take your time
Take what's mine - anything worth stealing
Take your time - you can hurt my feelings
Take what's mine, take what's mine
But you can't have my soul


8. I NEED LOVE

Do you ever feel unhappy, don't know what you wanna do
Do you do you get slap happy, give and take a few
Oh I've never been this lonely, somethin' passed me by
I know what I'm missing, and it makes me cry
Hunting for bounty with a treasure map in my hand
And my secretary says she understands in short hand
Take a note, take a note
Did I really float, in my dreamboat
Is it time to try, before it passes me by

I need love, I need love, I need love
Give it to me
Don't deny me love, I need love, I need love
Lots of it
I wanna o.d. on it

I beg your pardon baby, maybe you can help me out
Could you move a little closer
We don't have to shout you see, I'm a desperate guy
You must've heard it all before
Oh you gotta go,- bye bye - Messin' me up some more
Hunting for bounty with a treasure map in my hand
And my secretary says she understands in short hand
Take a note, take a note
Did I really float in my dreamboat
Is it time to try before it passes me by

I need love, I need love, I need love
Give it to me
Don't deny me love
I need love, I need love
Lots of it
I wanna o.d. on love
I need love, I need love
Let me have it
Let me lay my hands on love
I need love, I need love
Come on, don't deny me love
You see, everybody's talking about love

(I need love, I need love)

To boil my eggs, to stretch my legs
To scratch my back, before I hit the sack
I need love and with a little bit of luck
Love and not just a quick
You know what: I need love


9. KILL ME (CE SOIR)

Ce soir, Ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star
Sing your song,
You can't go wrong
Attempted his business adviser
No need for alarm
You'll come to no harm
He didn't mention the sniper

Ce soir, Ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star

The news is read, the meaning spread
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed
Turn off the light and hold me tight
Come on maman, bend down your head
And just sing on, immortal song
Fini belle vie, bonne nuit

Remember that song called "Kill Me"
A lecture on political chicanery
Of people's rape
Recorded on tape
Bought shame to the presidency

Tonight, tonight
One more point for human right
Remember that song "Kill Me"
Once used by a man from Galilee
He had nothin' to lose
He was king of the Jews
Secured his place in history

Ce soir, Ce soir
Assassination d'un provocateur
The news is read, the voice is spread
One yawn, two yawn, and back to bed
Turn off the light and hold me tight
Come on maman, bend down your head
And just sing on, immortal song
Fini belle vie
Vick played the part,
With all his heart
He wasn't prepared for the shock
When howling lead
Bit into his head
A new martyr for the book of rock

Ce soir, Ce soir
Assassination d'un rock 'n roll star


10. PARADISE IN DISTRESS

Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new penthouse in heaven
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the good old neighbourhood on a one way trip to hell
(Shake you sinner)

Jesus won't drive nothin' but a shiny white Mercedes
And all the angels gotta settle for second hand Oldsmobile's
The virgin Mary loses faith and starts a chain-reaction
The Lord just stands there weepin' bitter tears in the rain
Ain't that a shame...
(Shake you sinner!)

Almost as if the bad guys, got the good guys on the run
All in the line of expectation, in the eyes of the evil one
Like a mad bull chargin' through a closet of porcelain 'Made in China'
Saddlin' up the righteous, with nightmares full of trauma

Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new
Devil just bought a brand new penthouse in heaven
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the old neighbourhood
There goes the good old neighbourhood movin' on down to hell

There's no one here, there's nothin' left
No one here to kiss or bless
This damp and dark unholy mess
You could say: Paradise in distress
(Shake you sinner)

Behind the clouds there's a silver line
The sun just can't stop waitin'
To put a shine on a clear blue sky
And kill the pessimist in me
Meanwhile, there's no one here, there's nothin' left
No one here to kiss or bless
This damp and dark unholy mess
You could say: Paradise in distress
(Shake you sinner)


11. ALBINO MOON

Well you look real good in your blue-jeans
And a pink sweater
But in a cocktail dress I guess
You look even better
I got your photographs and the memories
Lined up on the table
But you're gone with the wind and I wish I was dead
Just like Clark Gable

The sun goes down for a lonely fool
Like darkness in the temple of doom
I need a guiding light
Tell me, what am I supposed to do

Albino Moon
Where you been tonight?
Hidin' behind a cloud, Albino Moon
Albino Moon
What's it all about?
Hidin' behind a cloud
Albino Moon

Am I blind or am I right
Pour your light into my room
Make my baby find her way back home, real soon
Albino Moon

Put your red lips on my daydream
Imagine we're together
In the back-seat of my car
On the shiny white leather
I got your photographs and the memories
Lined up on the table
But you're gone with the wind and I wish I was dead
Just like Clark Gable

The sun goes down for a lonely fool
Like darkness in the temple of doom
I need a guiding light
Tell me, what am I supposed to do

Albino Moon
Where you been tonight?
Hidin' behind a cloud, Albino Moon
Albino Moon
What's it all about?
Hidin' behind a cloud
Albino Moon

Am I blind or am I right
Pour your light into my room
Make my baby find her way back home, real soon
Albino Moon

Albino Moon, Albino Moon
Hu hu, hu hu, hu hu, hu hu


12. LOST AND FOUND

I am not an object
Somethin' you throw away
I am no piece of junk
That's on a stationary train
I want you to get a message
To the one that's gonna set me free
Tell her to hurry, tell her to recognize me
'Cause I'm beginning to believe
That forever I'll live on a shelf
Of the lost and found

Between a cane and an umbrella
A wallet and a chain of keys
My dreams are full of you
And my nights without you are empty
I'm going under, yeah I'm going under
Had a name, had a number
Went and lost it all instead
And I'm beginning to believe
That forever I'll live on a shelf
Of the lost and found

I am not a misplaced object
A person you throw away
Some piece of junk
That's been left on a stationary train
I want you to get a message
To the one that's gonna set me free
Tell her to hurry, tell her to identify me
'Cause I'm beginning to believe
That forever I'll be another case
Of the lost and found
Yeah I'm beginning to believe
That I'll never get to leave this place
They call lost and found


13. HOLD ME NOW

Dreaming 'bout the future and drinkin' on the past
Thinkin' 'bout the things that been forgotten
Tryin' to remember and tryin' to forget
That my life is empty without you
Sayonara, close your eyes now little girl
'Cause tomorrow hides a whole different world

Hold me now, you gotta guide me through the night
Hold me now, make my ice-cold blood turn warm

Talkin' 'bout our friends in love
Our friends with broken hearts
The one's I always keep forgiving
That funny angel shot a poison pointed dart
Tonight I wanna keep on living
For your love, close your eyes now little girl
'Cause tomorrow's hidin' a whole different world

Hold me now, you gotta guide me trough the night
Hold me now, and make it last forever
Hold me now, be my guide just for a while
Hold me now and make my ice-cold blood turn warm


14. COLOURBLIND

Colourblind, risking your life
A brush stroke and a rooftop dive
Eccentric hero in a hookers bed
A dog without a leash, a sirloin fed
Breakable heart, I believe you said
If life's a shadow, gimme a shot in the head
If life's a shadow, gimme a shot in the head

Colourblind, slightly cock-eyed
The world at your feet in the city tonight
Burning like a flame instead of hanging
Like a puppet from a spiders' web
Unbeatable heart, I think you said
If life's a dream, gimme a shot in the head
If life's a dream, gimme a shot in the head

Welcome home baby, the skies are red
The clouds are blue and the streets are wet
Welcome home baby, the drinks are free
Your face is green in the neon-light
Welcome home baby, farewell goodbye

Colourblind, before the paint dries
Saturday night, one more time
Eccentric hero in a hookers bed
A dog without a leash, a sirloin fed
Unbeatable heart, I think you said
If life's a dream, gimme a shot in the head
If life's a dream, gimme a shot in the head

Welcome home baby, the skies are red
The clouds are grey and the streets are wet
Welcome home baby, the drinks are free
Your face is green in the neon-light
Welcome home baby, farewell goodbye

Welcome home baby, the skies are red
The clouds are blue and the streets are wet
Welcome home baby, the drinks are free
Your face is green in the neon-light
Welcome home baby, farewell goodbye


15. WILL & MERCY

Will's a broken down lover
Who's never been outside the city he lives in
He's got memories of better days
And he's floatin' in his dream
But tonight's the night that's gonna change his life
Gonna change the whole situation
Mercy just got off the train
Gets a cab at the station

Time and time ahead, coming in the clear
Lonely hearts, disappear
Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait
Time and time for the day, anymore

Mercy's got enough of the now and then
Of her strait jacket existence
So she packs her bags and cuts her hair
And throws away the ribbons
Cause tonight's the night that's gonna change her life
Gonna change the whole situation
Will just turned the free sign off
Baby where can I take you

Time and time ahead, coming in the clear
Lonely hearts, disappear
Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait
Time and time for the day

Who, who will stop the rain again
We will stop the rain and then....

Time and time ahead, coming in the clear
Lonely hearts, disappear
Cause Mercy's on her way and Will don't have to wait
Time and time for the day, anymore


16. 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


17. THE LAST FRONTIER HOTEL

Turn on your lights Las Vegas
Light up the desert sky
There's no one waiting for me
At the Last Frontier Hotel
At the Last Frontier Hotel

I'm feeling tired and hungry
And I'm weary to the bone
Rode ten thousand miles to get here
To justify my soul
To justify my soul

One last drink and one more smoke
And a one way ticket to the end of the show

Na na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na na, na na na na na

Coming back to you Sin City
I heard your devil call
I'll kill my past to stay here
Carve my name on your wall
I'll carve my name on your wall

I'm feeling tired and hungry
I can see the curtain fall
Rode ten thousand miles to get here
To justify my soul
To justify my soul

One last drink and one more smoke
And a one way ticket to the end of the show

Na na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na na, na na na na na

(Voice)
Turn on your lights Las Vegas
Light up the desert sky
There's no one waiting for me
At the Last Frontier Hotel


18. HOLY HOLY LIFE

In bad times when it's dark and cold
You got no place to rest your soul
There's laughter behind your backs
Then it seems the devil rules the deck

Nothin' seems easy these days
Or do I see it in a different way
The world is spinnin', well that's OK
Tell me baby what's the price we pay

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Holy holy life, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is phony
The sooner or later, they'll find you dead

Why don't you take me down to a rabbit hole
Where a man of peace can hide his soul
Thinkin' about pollution and a birth-control
Better talk to the rabbits, it's somebody's fault

Or maybe sometimes I'm pessimistic
And maybe it ain't so bad, it ain't so sick
I know I'm not the man of constant sorrow
And tell me is it the path of evil to follow

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Holy holy life, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is phony
Or sooner or later, they'll find you dead

Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad, so sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad, so so sad
Holy holy life, sometimes is lonely
Sometimes is phony, sometimes is sad
Holy, holy, holy
