1. INTRODUCTION

(Instrumental)


2. JANGALENE

Jangalene, you're my queen
Well I can't get next to your love machine
Well Jangalene, you're my queen
My soul can't feel what my eyes can see

Oh, Oh, Jangalene, Oh, oh, Jangalene
Oh, Oh, Jangalene, Oh, Oh, Jangalene

Drivin' all night in your Cadillac
Showing your beauty you're drivin' me mad
Maybe you're a dream flashin' by
But I trust my eyes, they are tellin' no lies
From the Sunset Strip to a Sausalito Bar
I follow you down in my second hand car

Oh, Oh, Jangalene, Oh, oh, Jangalene
Oh, Oh, Jangalene, Oh, oh, Jangalene


3. ANOTHER 45 MILES

Here comes the night
A veil over the light
In the distance some shadows of the clouds in the sky
I've got to get home, to my child, my wife

Here comes the night
I'm scared to death, got to get me a ride
It looks like the road is swallowing me up
Gotta hurry home, don't dare to look back
Blueville is straight ahead

Another 45 miles to go
Another 45 miles before I'm home
I wish I could pay the sun to run
Then I had some more time, with my wife, my son

Clouds in the sky
Gathering for a fight
Chasing their prey till it can't go on
I mend my pace 'cos my bride is waiting home

Here comes the night
I'm scared to death, got to get me a ride
It looks like the road is swallowing me up
Gotta hurry home, don't dare to look back
Blueville is straight ahead

Another 45 miles to go
Another 45 miles before I'm home
I wish I could pay the sun to run
Then I had some more time, with my wife, my son


4. MAD LOVE'S COMIN'

You want different positions
To keep your love-life successful
And you want a happy ending
With lots of stud potential
Reliable and perpetual
Without being distasteful, oh wee

My papa says it's not the size
Nor the way it's looking
It's the way it moves
On stiletto shoes, papa sure improves
But I bet he's just tryin' to be commercial

So let me say something simple to you
Before we get to do the do: Baby I love you
That takes care of that
You can take off your hat
You and me gotta be the lucky few

There's a tourist in the city
That went and lost his lady
On the purpose if you ask me
He'll have to find a reason
To cover-up the treason
Meanwhile let's hope the night never ends
Meanwhile let's hope the night never ends
'Cos mad love's coming, I know mad love is coming
Mad love is coming, I know mad love is coming
Mad mad love is coming, I know mad love is coming

Out on the corner
City boy routine
Right on the border
Of enemy territory
This is how far you've come
This is how far you've gone
There's a fool's moon out
Makin' me shoutand it's cruel cruel
Street's a mean school
Too many blows
Below the belt, you know
This is how far you've come
This is how far you've gone
There's a fool's moon out
Makin' me shout

Mad love is comin', not too soon
On beds that sail outta the blue
Mad love is comin', all day through
Who's afraid of that romance is doomed
Mad love's comin', all over your walls
Into your life, it creepy crawls
This is how far you've come
This is how far you've gone
There's a fool's moon out
Makin' me shout
Mad love is ....


5. WHY DO I

We swing high, we swing low
Never worry about a dull moment
You're mine, I'm yours
We fight while we know that we shouldn't

Ten dollar, ten times
On sale to the highest bidder
Ten dollar, ten times
Is the price of love considered
You're right, I'm wrong
You always knew a good thing in the first place
One sundown, one moon down
One hole in a sky-blue ceiling

Ten dollar, ten times
Every time you hold the trigger
Ten dollar, ten times
Is the price of love
Why do I, hurt you so
Why can't I just let you go
Why do I, hurt you so
While I idolize you forever more

Ten dollar, ten times
On sale to the highest bidder
Ten dollar, ten times
Is the price of love considered

Your "yes" against my "no"
We never worry 'bout a dull moment
You're mine, and I'm yours
We fight while we know that we shouldn't

Ten dollar, ten times
Every time you hold the trigger
Ten dollar, ten times
It's the price of love

Why do I, hurt you so
Why can't I just let you go
Why do I, hurt you so
While I idolize you forever more

Ten dollar, ten times
Why do I, hurt your soul


6. I CAN'T SLEEP WITHOUT YOU

Silver like a fish slappin' on my tongue
Speak to me the way you do
Hide me all summer in your arms
Hold me the way I like you to
You fill my cup 'till it's crackin' up
The button that says alarm
Says me I'm not supposed to
Be like a champ that's going down
Fighting to get close to you
Everybody gets up, excited by love
The sight of the ring, the sight of the blood

I can't sleep without you [4x]

Referee's in black and he's in shock
The judge is hammering for some solid proof
My heart keeps racing like a clock, yeah
I can't sleep without you
It's like a time bomb, ready to go off
In my head and in my heart
The lights keep fading in the dark
Just like a nightmare that's comin' true
I can't sleep without you
I'm crazy in the city, it just ain't fair
You send me to my corner, and you're never there

I can't sleep without you
I can't ....


7. 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


8. VANILLA QUEEN

Fascinating lady, snowflake in the sun
You make me feel so bourgeois
Oh, you've captured everyone
I hear you've been a dancer
At some famous Paris show
And million dollar lovers
Neatly saw you to your door
Nineteen fifty seven,
Sweetheart of the year
Secret of your beauty,
Was your moontan and your fear
And now you run this city
You're still honey to the flies
Attract the in crowd dandies
Faraway-look in their eyes
You're the bright, nocturnal Vanilla Queen
Your mask is sterile dignity
Tell me why, nocturnal Vanilla Queen
You haunt me, even in my dreams
It couldn't be avoided
We were bound to meet
I knew you would drag me down
And toss me off my feet
Sweet moments of desire
Sweet moments of relief
You blew down my fences
You're natural make-believe

You're the bright, nocturnal Vanilla Queen
Your mask is sterile dignity
Tell me why, nocturnal Vanilla Queen
You haunt me, even in my dreams


9. TWILIGHT ZONE

Somewhere in a lonely hotel room,
There's a guy starting to realize
That eternal fate has turned its back on him,
It's two a.m

It's two a.m., the fear has gone
I'm sittin' here waitin', the gun still warm
Maybe my connection is tired of takin' chances
Yeah there's a storm on the loose, sirens in my head
I'm wrapped up in silence, all circuits are dead
I cannot decode, my whole life spins into a frenzy

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know,
When the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone

I'm falling down a spiral, destination unknown
A double-crossed messenger, all alone
I can't get no connection, can't get through, where are you
Well the night weighs heavy on his guilty mind
This far from the borderline
And when the hit man comes
He knows damn well he has been cheated

Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Help I'm steppin' into the twilight zone
The place is a madhouse, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go, now that I've gone too far
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone
Soon you will come to know, when the bullet hits the bone


10. ONE SHOT AWAY FROM PARADISE

I wanna talk to you,
Please let me talk to you
But you don't let me in
I wanna hold you
But I don't know where to begin

One shot away from paradise
I'll be there to open your eyes

You're hidin', hidin' in your head
Layin' on your bed
You're zoning away, got nothing to say
You're hiding, you lock yourself away
Day after day
But don't you know I'm with you
It's hard to be with you

Lemme tell ya
One shot away from paradise
I'll be there to open your eyes

You're smilin', baby you're smilin'
That's when I know you're coming home
That's when I feel I'm not alone
No no

You're crying, sometimes you're crying
That's when I know we're still alive
That's when I feel we will survive
'Cause baby don't you know that
I'll be there to open your eyes
I'll be there when you open your eyes
We're just one shot away from paradise
I'll be waiting with my arms open wide


11. 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


12. POURING MY HEART OUT AGAIN

Another hour past midnight
Moonshine through the skylight
The bottle's empty and my mind is full
Of your ghost that keeps hauntin' this room

And I could spend all my life
Just sittin' here paralyzed
And I could spend all my life
Waitin' for you to materialize

Love was the only thing
I always felt for you
Bigger than anything
Baby I die for you

Hold me cause I think I'm falling
Like rain on a Monday morning
And when it rains I'm pourin'
My heart out again

I can't remember, I can't forget
I can't see 'cause my eyes are wet
The bottle's empty and it says: you fool
How many tears do I spill for you?

I could spend all my life
Just sittin' here paralyzed
I could spend all my life
Like a thorn of glass in your eye


13. RADAR LOVE

I've been drivin' all night,
My hand's wet on the wheel
There's a voice in my head
That drives my heel
It's my baby callin',
Says: I need you here
And it's a half past four
And I'm shifting gear

When she is lonely
And the longing gets too much
She sends a cable
Coming in from above
Don't need a phone at all

We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a wave in the air,
Radar Love

The radio's playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
The road has got me hypnotized
And I'm speeding into a new sunrise

When I get lonely,
And I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort,
Comin' in from above
Don't need a letter at all

We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a line in the sky,
Radar Love

No more speed, I'm almost there
Gotta keep cool now, gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go
And the line of cars drove down real slow

And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee's "Coming On Strong"
And the newsman sang his same song
One more radar love is gone

When I get lonely and I'm sure I've had enough
She sends her comfort, coming in from above
We don't need no letter at all

We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a line in the sky
We've got a thing that's called Radar Love
We've got a thing that's called,
Radar Love


14. EIGHT MILES HIGH

Eight miles high
And when you touch down
You'll find that it's stranger than known

Signs in the street
That say where you're going
Are somewhere, just being there own

Nowhere is their warmth to be found
Among those afraid of losing their ground
Rain, gray town, known for it's sound
In places, small faces unbound

'Round the squares, huddled in storms
Some laughing, some just shapeless forms
Sidewalks scenes and black limousines
Some living, some standing alone


15. THE NAKED TRUTH

Used to be a young gull, out on the hard streets
Gettin' high on crystal, drinking scotch and smoking weed
Daddy's wish used to be nothing less than my command
Took a switch to my back, nailed me to a cross, both hands

Mamma couldn't give me, the thing a young boy needs
Instead of Mamma suffering, she was smart enough to leave
Spend my life fighting, trying to stay free
From trials and tribulations and the state penitentiary

Hustled pool, really looking cool
Just making both ends meet
Until that day I saw you walking
Down Blue Angel street
The sweetest lies are lily white
Coming from your lips
You brush away all my pain
With a lazy finger tip

It moves my heart just watching, the way you walk so smooth
You save me from an evil fate, you steal away my blues
Lyin' here in your arms, I don't need more proof
Lyin' here safe and warm, it's just the naked truth
This man loves you, this man loves you
This man loves you, this man loves you
That's the naked truth
It's the naked truth

Going down that graveyard spiral, there was nothing I could do
Life treatin' me much harder, than a mean old corkscrew
Lyin' here in your arms, I don't need more proof
Lyin' here safe and warm, it's just the naked truth
This man loves you, this man loves you
This man loves you, this man loves you...


CD 2


1. 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


2. JUST A LITTLE BIT OF PEACE IN MY HEART

The rainbow hides no treasure
Oh believe me it's not true
And there ain't no mixture
That will give you back your youth
No mystic machine that makes the sand turn to gold
Like there ain't no magic word
That holds you back from getting old

I catch a branch
And I break it in my hands
Like you broke my heart
Oh I still can't understand
No mysterious mixture
Can heal the wound you've made
Only time will bring peace to meand
Now I just hate

Oh I'll break up and I give it all up
No more lies, no more rainbow treasures
No more fairytales, no more games for me
It's my life, my life, a pleasure

There's just a little bit of peace in my heart
There's just a little bit of happiness I'll part

I catch a branch
And I break it in my hands
Like you broke my heart
Oh I still can't understand
No mysterious mixture
Can heal the wound you've made
Only time will bring peace to me
And now I just hate

Oh I'll break up and I give it all up
No more lies, no more rainbow treasures
No more fairytales, no more games for me
It's my life, my life, a pleasure

There's just a little bit of peace in my heart
There's just a little bit of happiness I'll part

The time rolls by, the days go by
When will I learn to stop wondering why
Despairing I'm going down on my knees
I'm begging, begging, begging, oh please

There's just a little bit of peace in my heart
There's just a little bit of happiness I'll part


3. GOING TO THE RUN

I could bet on new-years eve
He'd call me up at night
From the other side of the world
Ed was always there alright
Ed's got the looks of a movie star
Ed's got the smile of a prince
He ride a bike instead of a car
I wanna be his friend

Dancing in the living room
With the ladies so nice
Like a child with a wisdom tooth
He's just a friend of mine
Ed's got the rings and the colors
Ed's got the wind in his hair
He goes a riding with the brothers
He's got a fist in the air

Going to the run, run Angel
Going to the run, run Angel
Well, heaven and hell came together that night
Only for you this time
Going to the run, forever Angel

One summer at the festival
Holding on real tight
On the back of a Harley
He took me for a ride in the sky
Ed's got the looks of a movie star
Ed's got the smile of a prince
He'd ride a bike instead of a car
I'll always be his friend

Going to the run, run Angel
Going to the run, run Angel
And his wings started to shine so bright
Like a fire in the night
Going to the run, forever Angel

Going to the run, run Angel
Forever going to the run, run Angel
Well, heaven and hell came together that night
Only for you this time
Going to the run, forever Angel


4. JANGALENE (ALTERNATE)

Jangalene, you're my queen
Well I can't get next to your love machine
Well Jangalene, you're my queen
My soul can't feel what my eyes can see

Oh, Oh, Jangalene, Oh, oh, Jangalene
Oh, Oh, Jangalene, Oh, Oh, Jangalene

Drivin' all night in your Cadillac
Showing your beauty you're drivin' me mad
Maybe you're a dream flashin' by
But I trust my eyes, they are tellin' no lies
From the Sunset Strip to a Sausalito Bar
I follow you down in my second hand car

Oh, Oh, Jangalene, Oh, oh, Jangalene
Oh, Oh, Jangalene, Oh, oh, Jangalene


5. 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....


6. WHEN THE LADY SMILES

When the lady smiles,
You know it drives me wild
Her lips are warm and resourceful
When her fingertips,
Go drawing circles in the night
Then the mood is soft and sensual, hu-u
And I love it, yeah I love it
It's the answer to all my dreams
Every time it feels like the earth is shakin'
It doesn't matter, a glass is fallin',
I hear it shatter,
Maybe it's raining, faster and faster, shadow dancin'
Together oh I, I'm a bettin' on the game of love
Oh oh oh I, I'm bettin' that love is gonna come out
When the walls no longer shout, back at me
And I'm feelin' proud

When the lady smiles,
She holds me in her hand
As a matter of fact,
She could always let me down
But when the lady smiles,
I can't resist her call
As a matter of fact,
I don't resist at all
'cos I'm walking on clouds
And she is leadin' the way

My friends tell me,
She's the beast inside your paradise
I guess you've heard it all before
A fallen angel,
That has got you hypnotized
And that always needs some more, hu-u
And I love it, yeah I love it
She's done nothin' to mislead me
'cos every time we meet,
The earth is shakin'
It doesn't matter, a glass is fallin'
I hear it shatter , maybe it's rainin'
Faster and faster, shadow dancin'
Together oh I, I'm bettin' on the game of love
Oh oh oh I, I'm bettin' that love is gonna come out
When the walls no longer shout, back at mea
Nd I'm feeling proud

When the lady smiles,
She holds me in her hand
As a matter of fact, she could always let me down
But when the lady smiles,
I can't resist her call
As a matter of fact,
I don't resist at all
'cos we're walkin' on clouds
And she is leadin' the way

Oh no, oh no, oh nooooo...
