1. SLAM THE HAMMER DOWN

Intro
Noddy (scream) from helicopter:

Hey you - you up there
Yeh you - can you hear me
I said, I said - can you hear me
Don't you listen to me, when I'm talking to you?
If you can't go for it - you can't go for it - good!
And that means you walk a new way - for what new's gonna comin'!

She's a cool kinda mama
Sure gonna slam the hammer down
When your pistons are pumping
Sure gonna slam the hammer down
Oh when your body starts to shake
It's time to loosen off the brake
And ram it down

Push the pedal to the metal
Sure gonna slam the hammer down
Gonna burn up the rubber
Sure gonna slam the hammer down
The checkered flag won't make you stop
You keep on going 'til you drop
And ramming it down

Keep a moving and motor racing
And the wheels go round and round
Oh when you win you'll be celebrating
Ready to slam the hammer on down

Got a flash little chassis
Screams when you slam the hammer down
First, second, third and fourth
Into top and ram the hammer down
You know it's getting all too much
When you're letting out the clutch
And ramming it down

Keep a moving, accelerating
And you're waiting to face the crowd
Now you're opening up a wide gap
Ready to slam the hammer on down

Yeah - yeah - yeah - yeh, yeh, yeh!
You dun alright - you dun alright!
You dun alright - you dun alright!

Oh she's a cool kinda mama
Sure gonna slam the hammer on down
Get it up and ram it up
And baby gonna ram the hammer down
When you loosen off the brake
Oh when you're body starts to shake
Fill her up with juice then baby
Gonna slam the hammer down

Yeah, oh ah!


2. IN THE DOGHOUSE

All them days of my youth were mis-spent
We were running riot, fooling 'round wherever we went
Everybody gone mad - Everybody gone mad
Plenty good lovin' hanging out on the town
Woe betide you if your lady caught you with your pants down
There'd be trouble all night - There'd be trouble all right
We got by without any money - You never shut your big mouth
Got all kicked out in a hurry - Out in the dog house
In The Dog House
Beautiful, well, you know I'm a liar
Don't look at the mantelpiece when you're poking at the fire
What your mama don't know - Won't hurt her, no no
All them days of my youth with no sense
We'd be writing words of wisdom on the wall in the gents
Dirty little rhymes from some dirty little minds
We got by without any money - You never shut your big mouth
Got all kicked out in a hurry - Out in the dog house
In The Dog House
We were flat broke skint in the local coffee bar
Singing to the juke with a broken down guitar
Everybody going mad - Everybody going mad
Nowhere to go in the middle of the week
Smoke a little, joke a little, use a bit of cheek
There'd be trouble all night - There'd be trouble all right
In The Dog House


3. RUN RUNAWAY

Hold on!

I like black and white (dreaming of black and white)
You like black and white
Run run away

[Chorus]
See chameleon
Lying there in the sun
All things to everyone
Run run away

If you're in the swing
Money ain't everything
If you're in the swing
Run run away

[Chorus]

If you gotta crush
Don't beat about the bush
When I gotta crush
Run run away

[Chorus]

Oh now can't you wait
Love don't come on a plate
Oh now can't you wait
Run run away

See there chameleon
Lying there in the sun
All things to everyone
Run run away

Run run away
Run run away
Run run away


4. HIGH AND DRY

Over and over

You're such a shy girl, see you every day
Oh me oh my girl, don't know what to say
Have you lost your voice?
Are you spoilt for choice?

My reputation's strictly for the birds
Don't believe in everything you've heard
How I operate
You ain't got long to wait - we'll do it

[Chorus]
Over and over (don't you turn me over)
Then I love 'em and leave 'em high
Over and over (don't you turn me over)
Then I love 'em and leave 'em high
High and dry

You take me home and I promise I'll behave
Won't wake your ma, I'll be silent as the grave
You'll be the first to crack
Then you'll want me back - to do it

[Chorus]

You're such a shy girl, see you every day
Oh me oh my girl, don't know what to say
You want equality
You won't get none of that from me - we'll do it

[Chorus]

I leave 'em, I leave 'em - high and dry
I love 'em, I leave 'em - I love 'em, I leave 'em high
I love 'em, I leave 'em, I heave 'em - high and dry
I leave 'em high and dry
I gonna leave 'em high


5. MY OH MY

6. COCKY ROCK BOYS(RULE O.K.)

Rock me boys - rock me boys!

You and me are the greatest thing
You and me are the honky kings
Rockin' on is the next best thing
To good love - to good love
A little bit of what you like
Slaps your face, says, 'on yer bike!'
She told you once and told you twice
There's no way - no way

[Chorus]
You cocky rock boys
You wanna roll away
You cocky rock boys
You rule o.k.
You cocky rock boys
You wanna roll away
You cocky rock boys
You rule o.k. - you rule o.k.

Get your oats in while you can
You're full of wit and it hits the fan
A fifty - fifty gambling man
Has no chance - no chance
You live on speed and it breaks your neck
A clapped out, living, loving wreck
You gotta keep yourself in check
I tell ya - tell ya

[Chorus]

Yeah...
Oh won't you rock me - rock me boys, rock me boys
Oh won't you rock me - roll away, roll away
Oh won't you rock me - oh won't you rock me
Oh won't you rock me - oh won't you rock me
Yeah...

[Chorus]

You cocky rock boys - you cocky rock boys
You cocky rock boys

You Frank and Johnny - you Frank and Johnny
You Frank and Johnny - you're hurting my arm
You Frank and Johnny


7. READY TO EXPLOSE

Sitting here in my mean machine - I'm ready to explode
Looking out of my helmet at the faces
I been wondering all night long - If I will live or die
Yeah, it's always the same before the races
I got some hot line information
About the man who's occupation is driving the cars
Standing out there on the grid
And it's a kind of fascination - And it demands full concentration
The kind of a job
We all dreamed of as a kid
I can see on the track ahead - the heat is rising high
Gotta win for the team and it's never easy
I been feeling the butterflies - strapped into my seat
Yeah, and already the tension's getting to me
We're waiting in anticipation
For some official indication - They're ready to go
Revving up and hit the road
'Cause it's another big occasion
And there won't be no relaxation - They're ready to go
And they're Ready To Explode
You're gonna drive 'em round the bend
Have a go on the chicane
Gonna drive 'em round the bend
Without a warning - Ready Now To Explode
Who's gonna be the big sensation?
Who'll be the champion of the nation?
In one of them cars - Standing out there on the grid
He's gonna get a big ovation
Be the champion of the nation
The kind of a thrill we all dreamed of as a kid
I don't wanna break down
And I wanna explode
Don't let me break down
I wanna explode
Ever since I was just thirteen, I had a crazy, reoccurring dream
To be faster than the speed of sound
It was the only way to get around, oh yeah
(Speeding in my dreams)
Seventeen and I passed my test - Never settling for second best
I knew right away what I'd like
It was a 750 motorbike, oh yeah
(Speeding in my dreams)
I was living for speed
Explode


8. (AND NOW THE WALTZ) C'EST LA VIE

(And now the Waltz)
He will never be free
Yeah, he'll always want you
He'll always need you

We lay there, your long hair was warm
The last night together, we made love until dawn
My nights on the town made you cry
Let's make love one more time, before I say goodbye

[Chorus]
C'est la vie
Ooh cherie
C'est la vie
Another time - another place - ooh
We'll be together again - you never leave me, baby
Another time - another place -ooh
We'll start all over again

We talked of the fun, oh, we'd had
Remember the good times - we remembered the bad
My two timing ways made you low
Let's make love one more time before I have to go

[Chorus]
C'est la vie
Ooh cherie
C'est la vie
He will never be free - never never
Yeah, he'll always want you - I'll always want you
He'll always need you - I'll always need you
Another time - another place - ooh
We'll be together again - yeah

Another time - another place
We'll start all over again
C'est la vie
Ooh cherie
C'est la vie
Ooh cherie
C'est la vieeee ah!
He will never be free - he'll never can
Yeah, he'll always want you - I'll always want you
He'll always need you - I'll always need you
He'll always need you - I'll always want you - Wouwouwouwou!


9. CHEAP 'N' NASTY LOVE

Wohouhouhou!

Cheap and nasty - cheap and nasty
Cheap and nasty - love

She was a stranger who came out of nowhere
She makes a living out there on the street
And with a faraway look in her faraway eyes
The face of an angel who's seen the hard times
A case of survival without any ties

[Chorus]
It's cheap and nasty love
And she'd leave it if she could
Cheap and nasty love
You know it ain't magic

She couldn't make any other profession
And as she says, 'well, a girl's gotta eat'
Trying anything once with a trick of the trade
Rents by the hour making sure she gets paid
No satisfaction - it drives her insane

[Chorus]

It's cheap and nasty love
And she'd leave it if she could
Cheap and nasty love
You know it ain't magic - no!

Woh, cheap and nasty love
And she'd leave it if she could
Cheap and nasty love
You know it ain't magic - no!

Cheap and nasty love
Cheap and nasty love
Cheap and nasty love
You know it ain't magic


10. RAZZLE AND DAZZLE MAN

Wohouhou!

Wanna be a big operator, do ya dig?
You play hard to get and make me laugh
Yeah, wanna face the rat race
Wanna find myself a place
A womaniser on my epitaph

[Chorus]
I'm your man - I'm your razzle dazzle man
I'm your man - I'm your razzle dazzle man
Oh but I know for sure...you'll keep coming back for more
Take me I'm yours
Yeah, I'm your man - I'm your man
I'm your man - I'm your man...

Wohouhou!

Wanna be a smooth operator in a groove
Oh, I'm a man of means
Wanna be like a sheik - a harem makes you weak
Break right into my dreams

[Chorus]

I'm your man - I'm your on the razzle man
I'm your man - I'm your razzle dazzle man
Oh but I know for sure...you'll keep coming back for more
Take me I'm yours
Yeah, I'm your man - I'm your man
Wohohoho, I'm your man, I'm your man...
Hey, hey, hey - hey, hey, hey!

Baby, baby you're looking so - good
I ain't seen ya since I don't know when
Baby, baby - baby, baby - baby, baby...
Where do we go from here?
You wanted a car
You wanted a ring
You wanted to take all my money
You wanted everything
And I couldn't give you everything

[Chorus]

It's good to see you, don't you know
It's been a long time, don't you know
(repeating several times)

You're never gonna change
You're never gonna act your age
