1. PLATINUM BLONDE

I wanna be a platinum blonde
Just like all the sexy stars
Marilyn and Jeane, Jayne, Mae and Marlene
Yeah they, they really had fun
In a luminous day-glo shade
Walk into a bar and I'll have it made
'Cause if that's all it takes; a double processed blonde
I wanna be a platinum blonde
I wanna be a platinum blonde
Be a platinum blonde.

Yeah I even tried wearing a wig for a while
It was the right colour, but not the right style
Gonna get some peroxide at the beauty supply
See ya later.

I wanna be a platinum blonde
Just like all the sexy stars
Marilyn and Jeane, Jayne, Mae and Marlene
Yeah they, they really had fun.

Now if you need me on Sunday and you look twice and see
That platinum blonde is gonna be me
In a double processed luminous day-glo shade
When I get this colour I'll have it made in the shade
Oh, I hope I'm OK
I wanna be a platinum blonde
I wanna be a platinum blonde.

Honey, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta, I gotta
I gotta be a platinum blonde
I gotta be a platinum blonde
I gotta be a platinum blonde
I'll hit the bottle baby.


2. PUERTO RICO

You say you wanna take me down to Puerto Rico
Crowded Puerto Rico
Humid Puerto Rico
You say you wanna take me up to the mountains
The boring mountains
You say you wanna take out to Las Vegas
Viva viva Las Vegas.

I heard it
I did it
I got the bill
I lived it
I paid it.

Paying still
Compliments and promises can't fool me twice.

Spreading lies like that around isn't very nice
You say I'm so fascinating like no one else you know
No one else you know?
Your wife should know
You say you wanna put me on some TV show
The Johnny Carson show?
Come on
Let's go
You say you wanna buy me leather coats and cars
Make me a star
Take a trip to Mars!

I did it
I got it
I got the jewel
I made it
I paid it
And I'm no fool
Compliments and promises can't fool me twice.

You're such a low-life schemer
Beat it creep dematerialize
Beat it creep dematerialize.


3. OUT IN THE STREETS (SHANGRI-LAS COVER)

He don't, hang around, with the gang no more
He don't do the wild things that he did before.

He used to act bad, Used to, but he quit it
It make me so sad
Cause I know that he did it for me
(Yes he did now)
And I can see...(It's still in the streets)
His heart, out in the street.

He don't, comb his hair, like he did before
He don't wear those dirty old black boots no more.

But he's not the same, Somethin' about his kissin'
That tells me he's changed.
I know that something's missing inside.
(Mumble mumble)
Somethin's died...(It's still in the streets)
His heart, out in the street.

He grew up on the sidewalk
Streetlight shinin' above
He grew up with no-one to love
He grew up on the sidewalk
He grew up running free
He grew up and then he met me..

He don't, hang around, with the gang no more
Gee, he doesn't smile like he did before.

I wish I didn't care
I wish I'd never met him
They're waitin' downstairs
I know I've got to set him free
He's gotta' be... (Out in the street)
His heart is out in the street.

He don't hang around with the gang no more
(Out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more
(Out in the street)
He don't hang around with the gang no more.
(Out in the street)


4. THIN LINE

Ah you hate me
Yeah you hate me
You think I don't see murder in your eye when you're looking at me
Eh you love me
Yeah you love me
You don't wanna be noticeably enamored of me
So Bon Voyage sweetface keep looking for the hole in one
Take a look at what you've done
Be a man get yourself a trenchcoat
I'm feeling crazy can you get me a gun? Oh
I hate you
I hate you!
You think I don't see your inlimited insecurity
I love you
Yeah I love you because you know me by what I let you by What I let you see
I love you
I love you because you know me by what I let you by what I Let you see.


5. HEART OF GLASS

Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
Once I had a love and it was divine
Soon found out I was losing my mind
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind.

In between
What I find is pleasing and I'm feeling fine
Love is so confusing there's no peace of mind
If I fear I'm losing you it's just no good
You teasing like you do.

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind.

Once I had a love and it was divine
Soon found out I was losing my mind
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind.

Lost inside
Adorable illusion and I cannot hide
I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside
We coulda made it cruising, yeah.

Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light.

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out to be a pain in the ass
Seemed like the real thing only to find
Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
Blondie Heart Of Glass.
