Meat Loaf : Hang Cool Teddy Bear

Тексты песен


1. PEACE ON EARTH

Well, goodbye my friend it was good to know you,
I hope you understand,
Twenty-one years and I ain't got nothing,
But sitting, wondering if I can,
Wishing and dreaming, Hoping and reaching,
For things I was never meant to have,
If my foolish life's a product of my gross misconceptions,
Who's gonna give a damn?

I don't want,
Peace on earth,
I just want to go,
I just want to go home.

I know I never was much more than you expected,
I expect I won't disappoint,
But my dreams were not as hollow as the empty world I saw though,
I guess I never did get the point,
Life cannot just be the only option left,
The only thing you can count on in this world in regret.

I don't want,
Peace on earth,
I just want to go,
I just want to go home.

Right world, wrong time
and they say to me, "Hang cool teddy bear"

Best thing to do,
We'll just feed them fear,
Get them thinking about there,
And forgetting about here,
We won't try to fight,
We won't try to win,
When they knock you down
You gotta get back up again

I don't wanna be an end,
For someone else's dirty hand,
To rape the desert of it's sand,
And pluck the fertile, virgin land,
I don't wanna be.
But I'm not so self-righteous to think that I,
Would not take one hundred thousand lives,
To see my mother's eyes,
And trace that southern smile,
I don't wanna die,
I don't wanna die,
I don't want too much more than a working man deserves,
Just a life worth living and a death worth dying for.

I don't want,
Peace on earth,
I just want to go home.

I don't want,
Peace on earth,
I just want to go home.
I just want to go home.
I just want to go home.
I just want to go home.

I don't want,
Peace on earth,

2. LIVING ON THE OUTSIDE

I've got steel on my fingers, granite on my breath
A bottle in one ear and a spike in my chest
A nickel in my boot and my finger in a damn
I hang out with a bunch of losers I call my friends, and we sing

oooh
oooh
oooh
oooh

But I'm headin' out today, I'm goin' down Elijah's way
Spinnin' wheels on fire, with my speed needle between my jeans
So darlin', show my what you're hiding behind that ring
Behind your pink silhouette, young lust balcony

C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me

We got two-thousand miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got mama's smile and my daddy's gun
You got your honest face and your liar's tongue

Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and my baby
Running like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left alive

Livin' on the outside

I got one shot to steal this world
If you wanna go with me you can be my girl
Here's a bullet for your thoughts and a penny for the train
Next time I'm here they'll be diggin' my grave

C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me

We got two-thousand miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got mama's smile and my daddy's gun
You got your honest face and your liar's tongue

Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and my baby
Running like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left alive

Livin' on the outside

Livin' on the outside (hey hey hey)
Livin' on the outside (oh, yeah yeah, livin')
Livin' on the outside (yeah yeah yeah yeah, ooh)
Livin' on the outside (oh yeah, oh yeah, oh hey)

Well, if I gotta go, I'm going in style
You're gonna find me running down that Calvary mile
A beggar's son on the potter's tree

C'mon, baby just ride with me
C'mon, baby just ride with me
C'mon, baby just ride with me

Come on!
Come on!

We got two-thousand miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got my mama's smile and my daddy's gun
Bring your honest face and your liar's tongue

Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and my baby
Runnin' like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left
Lovin' like the only sinners left alive

Livin' on the outside....

3. LOS ANGELOSER

I wrote you this poem
I'd like to dedicate it to you

I'm just a white boy
I play the guitar
I put my pants on
I drive a shit car
Up into the valley
To see my girlfriend
She's got a big couch
She's got a Mercedes Benz

Sing hallelujah
My glass is half full
She pours me champagne
She drinks a Red Bull
And she says 'darling
One thing thing you got to understand
As long as I am satisfied
Well, you will always be my man

You know that I, I'll give you all the love that have
I'll empty all my pockets and I give you what I can
You know that I, I'll give you all the love that have
I'll give you all the love that I can

Los Angeloser
Los Angeloser
Los Angeloser
I'll give you all the love that I can

Oh yeah
We got the sunshine
We got the good friends
We (do-si-do) and all the time
Out in the wilderness
She always looks fine
She's gonna be the one to make it
And I'll be two steps behind

You know that I, I'll give you all the love that have
I'll empty all my pockets and I give you what I can
You know that I, I'll give you all the love that have
I'll give you all the love that I can

Los Angeloser
Los Angeloser
Los Angeloser
I'll give you all the love that I can

Now check this out
I say this
I say this with the deepest appreciation for all you ladies out there
Especially the ones who've shown a little love for someone such as myself
You believed in me
Loved me
...
If it wasn't for you
There would be no... me

I thank you baby
The way you save me
I would repay you
But I'm too lazy

I thank you baby
The way you save me
I would repay you
But I'm too lazy

You know that I, I'll give you all the love that have
I'll empty all my pockets and I give you what I can
You know that I, I'll give you all the love that have
I'll give you all the love that I have
I wrote you this poem
I'd like to dedicate it to you

4. IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU

To say it's love would be too simple
Too obvious
It's more like a calling, a vocation
Something I was
Put on this earth to do
Now I'm shooting with the stars
And I'm flying with the angels
And my heartbeat is a symphony the
Closer I get to you
I never saw you comin' till you
Came and here you are
I never thought someone
Would ever dare
To come this far
You're up for the resistance
And I'm strong in my persistence
And I've never known
A remedy like ours
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
I would be a river dried up
Into dust
I would be imprisoned
For ever having loved
If I can't have you
I don't wanna be me
Then I would be the same man
You scraped off the ground
I'd have to go back bein'
That broken soul you found
Those days are in the darkness
I buried them with hardness
And I'd have to dig those
Demons out
Your life is like anchor that puts
Me in my place
No you won't let me sink when
I'm off losin' my way
Thank God for your virtue
And the wisdom in your eye
Cause somehow you
Get through on
All that crazy in my mind
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
I would be a river
Dried up into dust
I would be imprisoned for never
Having loved
If I can't have you
I don't wanna be me
I don't wanna be me
Why did it take you so long to
Finally see
That we had love
That you don't find easily
You broke my heart and the price
To pay for that
Is you'll have to live the misery of
Losing what you had
If I can't have you
My words have come to late
I've already turned that page
Don't you look at me back and
That's the part I hate
I'll stay trapped inside my hell
Where it's so hot
That my walls melt
And I can hear a promise
In every lie you said
You'd never tell
If I had only told the truth
Oh I could never trust you to
You'll survive
No I will die
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
Then I'm sorry for the things I
Cost you in the end
My punishment is more than any
Man can stand
I need you in my life
I can't let go
Why don't you stay with me
Tonight
I feel alone
Turn off all the lights
Take me home
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
Then I would be a river
Dried up into dust
I would be imprisoned
For ever having loved
If I can't have you
I don't wanna be me
To say it's love would be too simple

5. IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU

To say it's love would be too simple

I can't let go
Why don't you stay with me
Tonight
I feel alone
Turn off all the lights
Take me home
If I can't have you
If I can't have you
Then I would be a river
Dried up into dust
I would be imprisoned
For ever having loved
If I can't have you
I don't wanna be me
To say it's love would be too simple

6. LIKE A ROSE

You better pray she took her morning medication
Or you might have to pick her up at the police station
Coz if there's trouble in this town, you know she's gonna find it
She's like the devil in a short skirt but I don't mind it
Everybody thinks I'm crazy, but they don't even know

She's kinda like a rose
She'll cut you on the your thumb
She'll kick you when you're low
And fuck you when she's done
The bitch is like a rose
And let me tell you son
That every time you think you've got control
Sh-sh-she got it

Maybe I'm a victim of infatuation
You know that hot-blooded girl's got my inspiration
Yeah it doesn't really matter that she isn't 21
Coz she's always backstage when the band gets done
Everybody thinks I'm crazy, but they don't even know

She's kinda like a rose
She'll cut you on the your thumb
She'll kick you when you're low
And fuck you when she's done
The bitch is like a rose
And let me tell you son
That every time you think you've got control
Sh-sh-she got it

She got jagged edges and a dirty mouth
(What a lady)
She got everything that I don't wanna live without
She's kinda like a rose
She's kinda like a rose

She's kinda like a rose
And you might wanna run
Coz even when she's cold
She's burnin like the sun
The bitch is like a rose
And smokin like a gun
Don't care if you don't like her
I love her
I love her
She's kinda like a rose

She's kinda like a rose
She'll cut you on the your thumb
She'll kick you when you're low
And fuck you when she's done
The bitch is like a rose
And let me tell you son
That every time you think you've got control
Every time you think you've got control
Sh-sh-she got it

7. SONG OF MADNESS

I dreamed there was a magic song I played for the queen 'neath the golden throne
My heart flowed through my broken voice to her
The queen did smile and she did cry my fingers bled a thousand lives
A red-teared river flowed our lives between us
Her majesties tears and the pauper's blood an angels breath and the devil's touch
The song of madness madly crying to her

You're a wolf in a lamb's disguise
a cold lover with a warm invite
morning gonna carry us to our grave
Dream a dream in agony
sweetest dream you'll ever see
make my dream reality oh carry me
carry me to my grave

She placed the blade within the king's throne and in mine did I place my own
with the lamb's blood we purchased our sin's pardon
The sky ripped open and the shadows bled the moon blew out and the stars burned red
the song of madness madly crying to her

On a night such as this
an angel's lips and the devil's kiss
morning gonna carry me to my grave
Dream a dream in agony
the sweetest dream you'll ever see
make my dream reality
carry me
carry me to my grave
oh carry me
carry me to my grave

The song of madness madly crying to her
The song of madness shot like lightning through us
The song of madness madly crying to her
Madness
Madness
Madness

My god my queen just lie to me
make me believe that I am king
and by morning

You're a wolf in a lamb's disguise
a cold lover with a warm invite
morning gonna carry us to our grave
Dream a dream in agony
sweetest dream you'll ever see
make my dream reality and carry me
oh carry me
carry me to my grave
carry me to my grave
carry me
carry me to my grave

8. DID YOU EVER LOVE SOMEBODY

Did you ever love somebody
So much that the earth moved
Did you ever love somebody
Even though it hurt to
Did you ever love somebody
Nothin' else your heart could do
Did you ever love somebody
Who never knew
Did you ever lay your head down
On the shoulder of a good friend
And then had to look away somehow
Had to hide the way you felt for them
Have you ever prayed the day would come
You'd hear them say they'd feel it too
Have you ever loved somebody
Who never knew
And if
And if
You did
You did
Well you know I'd understand
I could
I could
I would
More than anybody can
Did you ever love somebody
So much that the earth moved
Did you ever love somebody
Even though it hurt to
Did you ever love somebody
Nothin' else your heart could do
Did you ever love somebody
Like I love you
Like I love you

9. CALIFORNIA ISN'T BIG ENOUGH (HEY THERE GIRL)

10. RUNNING AWAY FROM ME

I swallowed the end of the world with my problems
Thought maybe a girl could solve 'em
Don't let anyone in
I'm stuck with these sins
I'm hoping maybe time can absolve 'em
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed to run free
Well that's all through
Thought I was runnin' from you
Turns out I was runnin' from me
La, La, La La, La, La
Runnin' away from me
La, La, La La, La, La
Runnin' from me
There's a girl who lives on my street
She said the flowers take care of the bees
She says she'll bring me a shore
Cause Daddy's at war
She's gonna take care of me
If history is violence and sex
I'd rather not pay my respects
If I've caused offense
I'm just trying to talk sense
Forgive me if I'm too direct
Or politically incorrect
La, La, La La, La, La
Runnin' away from me
La, La, La La, La, La
Runnin' away from me
Turns out I was runnin' from me
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed room to breathe
I said I needed to run free
All that's through
Thought I was runnin' from you
Turns out I was runnin' from me
Turns out I was runnin' from me
La, La, La La, La, La
Runnin' away from me
La, La, La La, La, La
Runnin' away from me
Runnin' away from me
Runnin' away from me
Runnin' away from me
Runnin' away from me

11. LET'S BE IN LOVE

Lie tell me a lie
Tell me you'd like to stay for a while
Leave before you leave
Make me believe there's still something left
And say maybe our hearts could heal or break
This could go either way
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Let's go upstairs till we've both had enough
There's no tomorrow
Or yesterday oh my my
Let's be in love tonight
Let's be in love tonight
Time life is just time
Leaves on a vine
Pasted or wasted away
Tried god knows we tried
Taking our sides
And played it so safe
Maybe our hearts could heal or break
This could go either way
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Let's go upstairs till we've both had enough
There's not tomorrow
Or yesterday of my my
Let's be in love tonight
Let's close the door
Let's be indiscreet
Let's be the flesh and the sweat on the sheets
Let's fill the darkness with passion and grace
Let's leave a mark that will never erase
God knows what we'll be by the morning light
Now come on over here
Let's be in love tonight
God knows what we'll be by the morning light
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Let's go upstairs 'til we've both had enough
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Let's go upstairs 'til we've both had enough
There's no tomorrow
Or yesterday oh my my
Let's be in love tonight
Let's be in love
Let's be in love
Let's be in love tonight

12. IF IT RAINS

Well I'm looking at the man in the broken glass
There's a crack where his heart was beating last
Oh I can tell he's been through hell
I say never stop dreaming
Oh yesterday's gone
Tomorrow is the day
Oh we're not dying
We're just paving the way
For the lovers, the dreamers
The kids who say
Never stop living
Oh never stop living
Cause if it rains it rains
We'll be in the street looking thunder in the face
Singing na na na na na
I won't change
Cause if it rains it rains
Oh like water in your lungs
They try to shut you down
Take your good ideas
And your shout out louds
But they don't know
The movement's growing
We'll never stop breathing
Oh never before and never again
Will there be a moment like this my friend
To make a change
Stand up and say
Never stop living
No never stop living
Cause if it rains it rains
We'll be in the street looking thunder in the face
Singing na na na na na
I won't change
Cause if it rains it rains
Cause if it rains it rains
We'll be in the street looking thunder in the face
Singing na na na na na
I won't change
Cause if it rains it rains
If it rains it rains
We'll be in the street looking thunder in the face
Singing nan na na na na
I won't change
Cause if it rains it rains
Oh if it rains it rains
Oh no now
Oh if it rains it rains

13. ELVIS IN VEGAS

I didn't take a suitcase
I had to travel light
I climbed out my bedroom window
It was just about quarter past midnight

Out on the highway
I hitched a ride I was heading west
I had to listen to some trucker
Tell me all about the meaning of life

Got a ride just outside of Memphis
I was wild out on the road
I saw shanties' and shacks
And burnt out Cadillac's
And faces that flittered like fawn

Should have seen it coming
Oh I should have seen the signs
I saw seven horses running
I had a front row seat at the end of time

I was just fifteen
And the world was mine
And I watched my dreams
Come to life on that night
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas

Now since that long lost summer
I ain't ever looked back
Now the lines on my face
Are looking more like cracks

When things all crumble
Its time to face the facts
I don't care about tomorrow
Oh there's no looking back

I should have seen it coming
Oh I should have seen the signs
I saw seven horses running
I had a front row seat at the end of time

I was just fifteen
And the world was mine
And I watched my dreams
Come to life on that night
I was standing tall
Felt I would never die
And I watched it all
In the white spot light

I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas

[Instrumental]

I should have seen it coming
Oh I should have seen the signs
I saw seven horses running
I had a front row seat at the end of time

When the lights went out
I heard a young girl scream
The sound of my heart beat
?The make up on her brow?

I was just fifteen
And the world was mine
And I watched my dreams
Come to life on that night
I was standing tall
Felt I would never die
And I watched it all
In the white spot light

I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
I saw Elvis in Vegas
Oh I saw Elvis in Vegas
