Lyrics


1. BLUE LINING WHITE TRENCHCOAT

I've got my armageddon boots,
Brown shades and brand new leather suit
Blue lining, blue lining, blue lining
White trenchcoat

I sew my own intelligence
I wear it down til' the bitter end
Blue lining, blue lining blue lining
White trenchcoat

Oh I'm going down with the sun (2x)
I'm gining down, down, down, ...
With the falling sun

I'm rapid like a heart attack
You see it's soul in the shades of black
Blue lining, blue lining blue lining
White trenchcoat

I'm burning, like a combat zone,
So sharp my senses's cutting stone
Blue lining, blue lining blue lining
White trenchcoat

Oh I'm going down with the sun (2x)
I'm going down, down, down, ... (yeah)
With the falling sun

I lost my love in a hurricane
I've got no choice but to go insane
Blue lining, blue lining blue lining
White trenchcoat

I've got my armageddon boots,
Brown shades and brand new leather suit
Blue lining, blue lining, blue lining
White trenchcoat

I don't think I can wait any longer
I will slowly die of hunger
I want it so bad that it hurts just to
Admit my desire
And I'm going with the sun (2x)
I'm goining down, down, down ... With
The falling sun


2. DANCE WITH SOMEBODY

Break your happy home
Learn to sing along
To the music, to the music
Clap your hands and shake
On a summer's day
To the music, to the music

[Chorus](2x)
I'm falling in love with your favourite song
I'm gonna sing it all night long
I'm gonna dance with somebody
Dance with somebody
Dance, dance, dance

I'm gonna dance with somebody

When you're all alone
We become your home
We're the music, we're the music
When your love's away
And you feel betrayed
We're the music, sweet music

[Chorus](2x)

[30x]
Dance...

[Chorus](4x)
I'm falling in love with your favourite song
I'm gonna sing it all night long
I'm gonna dance with somebody
Dance with somebody
Dance, dance, dance


3. GLORIA

Well now
She don't need to see the sun ahead
Don't need that help from God above
If you're losing her don't be sad
Cause she will offer you heart attacks

She's tired of problems that you caused her mind
Tired of all those lies in your freak show
Tired of being alone at night
Being the lowest cat on earth

So Gloria steps out of the prison
Gloria's no longer the wasted disco girl
You've been dreaming about

Gloria alone now forever
Gloria away in the air now
Gloria she's no longer your slave, noo

Ooh ooh ooh

It's time for you to see yourself
All the misery you brought up
Gloria's one day ahead
Watching you from the heaven's gate

She's tired of problems that you caused her mind
Tired of all those lies in your freak show
Tired of being alone at night
Being the lowest cat on earth

So Gloria steps out of the prison
Gloria's no longer the wasted disco girl
You've been dreaming about

(2x)
Gloria alone now forever
Gloria away in the air now
Gloria she's no longer your slave

She's no, no longer your slave
No, no, not anymore
She's no, no longer your slave
No, no, not anymore
She's no, no longer your slave
No, no, not anymore

So Gloria steps out of the prison
Gloria's no longer the wasted disco girl
You've been dreaming about

Gloria alone now forever
Gloria away in the air now
Gloria she's no longer your slave

No, not anymore
No, no, no, not anymore
No, no


4. HIGH HEELS

Ooh you got me shaking to that moan you made last night
Ooh my body's aching from that naked summer light
Ooh my mind's setting you on it's just a game we play

[Chorus]
High heels have got me falling down on my knees
High heels have got me falling down on my knees
High heels have got me falling down on my knees

Ooh the button's pushed and I am ready for the purple fall
Ooh I'm all addicted to the sound of a certain call
Ooh my mind's melting you
Ooh I'm coming all the way

[Chorus]

So so long ago since felt shivers down my spine
you I need your sweat as much as you need mine

Ooh my mind is melting you I'm coming all the way

[Chorus]


5. MEAN STREET

Let me take you for a ride
Far away from the upper side
We're going down to the mean street

Johnny's got a brand new 38
He thinks it's gonna cure his hate
Ah it's all done in the mean street

It's the state of grace

And It's all done in the mean street

[Chorus]
Take my hand and close your pretty eyes
Cus it's gonna hurt so much when summer hits the
New York sky
Oh no, it's all done in the mean street

God I love this stormy cloud
Where all nasty girls they like it loud
It's all good in the mean streets

Diane had her grand debut here
Michael couldn't even tell if it was
Pleasure or fear
It's all done in the mean street

And It's my little state of grace

It goes down in the mean street

[Chorus]

The heights, the sights, the green, the
Scarred
The easy way of doing everything hard,
The fashion
Oh I hate that street with... Passion

[Chorus]
It's all done in the mean street
It's all done in the mean street


6. MAYBE JUST SAD

Come on children let's get out from a bunker in the underground
Let's take the train to a place we can hide and see what all the soldiers are talking about

[Chorus]
Are they happy, or maybe just sad, are they proud of the upper class?
Is it easy for them to feel free or am I just too blind to see?

Lord I'm aching so hard to see this world full of anger, hate and empty words
We all need something to clear up our minds
And see what all the soldiers are talking about

[Chorus]

Tell me now kid, are you happy or maybe just sad, are you proud of the upper class?
Is it easy for you to feel free or am I just too blind?

[Chorus]


7. A DECENT LIFE

(Instrumental)


8. GIVE ME FIRE

Jimmy you never feared the life ahead
You never lived the life I gave you when I hold you
Daddy said you're gonna get it
You're gonna burn before the dawn
Your blood is poisoning your people, your own people
Your addiction in the one, the sweetest one, the precious one

[Chorus]
Oh that freedom so give me give me fire
It doesn't always have to end
Oh Jimmy, Jimmy fire my love's with you til the end
My love's with you til the end

Coma your my brightest shining star
You're my darkness in the morning, winter morning
crystal fly over the ceiling
Bugs my dreaming in the night
The man above decides my future where I'm destined
My addiction in the one, the sweetest one, my precious one

[Chorus]

Mama why did you comfort him at night?
Did we forget that he was pure?
How I miss him, my love's with him til the end, the sweetest end, my precious end

[Chorus]
My love's with you til the end
My love's with you


9. CRYSTAL

Fade away all that we have dreamed of
Bergman said it all the magic is in the fall, so true...

When you see him tell him all, all that you don't know all how much we've grown
So I cry but like always I don't feel that much in here
Now I sit by your side just to be near you oh lord please don't take him yet

Now you're gone, you're with angels
I will soon come visit you and talk about the time we had together
Now our town is filled with tears

Don't feel bad while you're there
Life was only sad while you were here
Filled with rage and fear and now I sit by your side
But you can't hear me you can always count on me

Don't feel sad, you're with angels
I will soon come visit you and talk about the time we had together
Now our town is filled with tears
So I sit by your side although you're not with me when I comfort you
When I come to you and like always right here by your side

Don't feel sad, you're with angels
I will soon come visit you and talk about the time we had together
Now our town is filled with tears


10. COME ON COME ON

If you like to get in touch with me someday
I know just what you'll say
Useless empty words
You close your eyes and try to talk me
Through
No matter what you'll do, you know i'll
Be just fine

So come on come on
Come on come on
Dress me like a queen
Confuse me, even steal my inner feelings
Come on come on
Come on come on
Change the way i've been
Just hold me down, abuse my mind forever

You held me down that night so long ago
I knew you sold your soul
To that devils hole
And I was a part of licking tears from you
No matter what you'll do, you know i'll
Be just fine

So come on come on
Come on come on
Dress me like a queen
Confuse me, even steal my inner feelings
Come on come on
Come on come on
Change the way i've been
Just hold me down, abuse my mind forever

Come on come on, come on come on, come
On come on,
Come on come on
Dress me like a queen
Confuse me, even steal my inner feelings
Come on come on
Change the way i've been
Just hold me down, abuse my mind forever


11. GO OUT TONIGHT

You and me you and me will always find
A salty sea
To clean our wounds and find our self esteem
It's you and me forever
Funeral i hope my time will come when
All is gone
When all the violins play the saddest songs
My love for you will rise up and sing

I will go out tonight
Don't wanna waste my time
I feel i'm bound to fly
And i don't love you no more
I say i'm heading out
Don't wanna waste my pride
I will go out tonight
And i don't love you no more

So did i
I recognize myself in all your lies
It doesn't matter what you say tonight
You guide me through our satire
Let's drink up for those who left us
Standing at the gates of dawn
And all the bastards leaving us without
A cause
They'll trail us down and kill us

I will go out tonight
Don't wanna waste my time
I feel i'm bound to fly
And i don't love you no more
I say i'm heading out
Don't wanna waste my pride
I will go out tonight
And i don't love you no more

I will go out tonight
Don't wanna waste my time
I feel i'm bound to fly
And i don't love you no more
I say i'm heading out
Don't wanna waste my pride
I will go out tonight
And i don't love you no more


12. YOU GOT NOTHING ON ME

Demons, killers, all of your evil
You got nothing on you got nothing on me

Fascists, warriors no matter what you'll say
You don't understand you don't understand me

And you got, you got nothing on you got
Nothing on me
And you got, you got nothing on you got
Nothing on me

The police and politics you're trying so hard to fool me
But you got nothing on you got nothing on me

Haters, trying to change my style and mind
But you don't understand you don't
Understand me

And you got, you got nothing on you got
Nothing on me
And you got, you got nothing on you got
Nothing on me

I'm so tired of being stuck in this mess and
Nightmare wont you come and take me up
And take me close to the real life

Girl I know you understand I know you
Understand me
I'm fed up with this feeling i've got in
My head
Give me something to hold onto when the
Hell breaks loose

I know you understand me I know you
Understand me
They've got nothing on you they've got
Nothing on you
They've got nothing on you they've got
Nothing on you

Girl I know you understand I know you
Understand me
I'm fed up with this feeling i've got in
My head
Give me something to hold onto when the
Hell breaks loose

I know you understand I know you
Understand me
They've got nothing on, they've got
Nothing on you
They've got nothing on, they've got
Nothing on you


13. THE SHINING

There's a man who sees all there is to see
What the future holds for all
As the days grow dark with the grim and final warning
Beware of the ones with invisible friends
They will steal into your mind
And all too soon the signs begin to show

Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up to the shining
Don't be blind by fools again
Fools again

As the pages turn and the story's told
From the visions he's seen
The house on the hill
With the haunted eyes that call
No one laughed as madness came out
To play it's game
If you stay too long you'll finally go insane

Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up to the shining
Don't be blind by fools again
Fools again

Bells will take their toll
On your way
There's no way we're born to shine
Before our time, all your life
You're on your own
Lonely road
Lost in a time
Let the light lead your way
To the golden throne
It's the only way

Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up to the shining
Don't be blind by fools again
Rise up to the shining
Live long live now
Rise up the shining
Don't be blind by fools again

Oh rise up, to the shining
Wise up they're gonna steal your mind
Rise up, the house is gonna haunt you
No one laughed, no one cried
You stayed too long
You're finally gonna stay
