1.SHE DON'T FOOL ME

I just recived a message from my mother
She asked me nicely not to bring the girl back home
She says that she's good-looking but she's crazy
Oh, but mama dear i knew it all along

She Don't fool me
She thinks I only see what I wanna see
No, she don't fool me
She don't fool me

I needed someone I could call my mistress
To help me back from the fire to the frying pan
She's young enough to write me of as senile
But I'm old enough to read between the lines
She Don't fool me
She thinks I only see what I wanna see
No, she don't fool me
She don't fool me

A very normal business transaction
Somehow turned into a daymare overnight
I know she knows I know she doesn't love me
She knows I know she knows it ain't working right

No, she don't fool me
She thinks I only see what I wanna see
Oh, she don't fool me
She thinks I only see what I wanna see
Oh, she don't fool me
She don't fool me


2. YOUNG PRETENDER

You thought that I would be so warm and tender
That love could be so very nice
I made a call to find suspicion on the line
Why couldn't you be all
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
Again too late I realise
The reasons now I find, conditions at the time
Did not allow for you to be

So don't you worry
I've got it all under control
Take time don't worry
I'm only halfway through a dream

Now love can really be so warm and tender
And can be oh so very nice
But not that way I said, too late too soon you said
Too soon, you said, too late to soon

So don't you worry
I've got it all under control
Take time don't worry
I'm only halfway through a dream

You thought that I would be so warm and tender
That love could be so very nice
I made a call to find suspicion on the line
Why couldn't you be all,

I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
A young pretender, be a young pretender
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
A young pretender, be a young pretender
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
A young pretender, be a young pretender..


3.GET OUT AND WALK

I got
Fat knees
From crawlin so fast
I got
Sore lips
From kissin' your arse
I know
I don't want
Anymore part of you

I got
Brain pain
You make me so mad
I got
Black eyes
From fightin' your dad
I know
I don't want
Anymore part of you

Get out...get out
Get out and walk
Stop blowing kisses
Across the hall
Don't write me letters
And please don't call
Gimme me a break
Get out and walk

I got
Slipped discs
With you on my back
I got
Ulcers from swallowing crap
I know
I don't want
Anymore part of you

Get out...get out
Get out and walk
Stop blowing kisses
Across the hall
Don't write me letters
And please don't call
Gimme me a break
Get out and walk

Get out...get out
Get out and walk
Stop blowing kisses
Across the hall
Don't write me letters
And please don't call
Gimme me a break
Get out and walk


4. JEALOUSY

Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone

Time is running out, out runs the time
I waste it on my own
But don't think I'm alone
Oh no, not again, I won't reply
I can't stay on the phone
I'll see you back at home
I really did think that problem was solved
But it is not

Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone

I've got another one, listen to me
And don't get all hung on
To things I have done wrong
Oh no, not again, I won't reply
It's only how I feel
It sometimes seems unreal
But everybody gets there once in a while
Are you wishing?

Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone
Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone


5. I LOVE ROCK'N'ROLL

When I'm playing my old guitar
I know what I'm living for
'Cos that's all I wanna do
Keep right on rocking you

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, I love rock and roll

Bye Bye Johnny, I'm All Shook Up
Bebopalula, Rock Around The Clock
You may or may not know
But you'll never rock alone

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, I love rock and roll, yes I do

And I'm a ready teddy ready to rock
And I'm a ready teddy ready to roll
Come on let's shout it out aloud
I love rock and roll

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, I love rock and roll, yes I do
I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, I love rock and roll, yes I do

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, I love rock and roll, yes I do
I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, I love rock and roll

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, I love rock and roll, yes I do
I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, I love rock and roll, yes I do


6.RESURRECTION

Sat by a river, wasting my time
I looked at the water and it gave me a sign
I made connection, my reflection
Was calling me back to rock and roll

It was moving, moving along
I looked a little closer and I thought of a song
And my raection was satisfaction
Calling me back to rock and roll

Calling, calling me back
I saw it in the water and I'm hitting the track
Nothing to pack, polish my act Lord
I'm gonna play some rock and roll

I was looking, looking ahead
Staying up instead of falling back into bed
Fuel injected, I've been elected
He's calling me back to rock and roll

It must be something, something He said
That's changing my mind and adjusting my head
A new direction, a resurrection
Calling me back to rock and roll

Calling, calling me back
I saw it in the water and I'm hitting the track
Nothing to pack, polish my act Lord
I'm gonna play some rock and roll


7.DEAR JOHN

Everybody was talking to me
Like I was a child
In their words I could hear them saying
It's just a matter of time
Anyway it's a long long race been run
Anyway it's a sad sad song been sung

Dear John goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear John I've broken away

Vanity is hard old lady
You can't read her mind
I'm a fool but I don't fool easy
While you're foolin' around
Anyway I can hold my own tonight
I admit I was wrong and you where right

Dear John Goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear John I've broken away

Dear John goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear John I've broken away

Dear John goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear John I've broken away

Everybody was talking to me
Like I was a child
In their words I could hear them saying
It's just a matter of time
Anyway it's a long long race been run
Anyway it's a sad sad song been sung

Dear John goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear John I've broken away

Dear John goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear John I've broken away

Dear John goodbye she said
Sometimes..


8.DOESN'T MATTER

Doesn't matter, doesn't matter if the rain comes down
I'll find a reason, find a reason if it can be found
'Cos something happened, something happened while I wasn't
around
It could be better, could be better with the rain all around

You had no reason, no special reason
For saying what you said to her about me
She must believe you, really believe you
Or else she wouldn't have had anything to do with you now
I often wonder, just sit and wonder
Does everybody make the same mistakes too?
I may go under when I feel under
So don't you take advantage of the situation I'm in

Forever breaking promises, it's little wonder
To mend a broken heart is heartache, heartache

Doesn't matter, doesn't matter if the rain comes down
I'll find a reason, find a reason if it can be found
'Cos something happened, something happened while I wasn't
Around
It could be better, could be better with the rain all around

Here's a reminder, a small reminder
Of How things were before you came into view
It was together, being together
So don't believe anything you said makes any difference at
All
You had no reason, no special reason
For saying what you said to her about me
It was together, being together
So don't believe anything you said makes any difference at
All

Doesn't matter, doesn't matter if the rain comes down
I'll find a reason, find a reason if it can be found
'Cos something happened, something happened while I wasn't
Around
It could be better, could be better with the rain all around


9.I WANT THE WORLD TO KNOW

Slippin' and a-slidin', rockin' and a-riding
Rollin' back to Lady Jane
And Can't you see the sun is shinin'
Temperature's a-risin'
Rood'n'doodee what's your name?

Seven-forty-seven flying over heaven
You could be a millionaire
And you could be a Rockerfeller
Any kind of weather
Everybody Everywhere

I wanna be your brother, I wanna be your friend
I wanna be your brother and shake you by the hand

Come on everybody, gonna have a party
Rock it all over the world
Come on and shake it all over
Over and over
Down Down, come on and spread the word

I wanna be your brother, I wanna be your friend
I wanna be your brother and shake you by the hand
Shake it shake it shake it, I want the world to know
I wanna be your brother, I wanna be your friend
I wanna be your brother and shake you by the hand
Shake it shake it shake it, I want the world to know
I wanna be your brother, I want the world to know


10.I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN

I found out what I wanted, I found out when I needed to
You thought me kind-a-hearted, I heard that when I wanted you
Being wrong isn't easy, right's another way
Being wrong isn't easy, right's another way

A-when you want me, just think like you're ready to
Like me when I want to, why me does it have to be?
Everyone tried to tell me, right's another way
Everyone tried to tell me, right's another way

Trust me to fall apart, trust you to know
Just you and no-one else, just me alone
Why did it have to be? I should have known
Oh I should have known

I can't tell, did you mean it? Did you mean what I think you
did?
I won't give less you need it, just a bit could be overhead
I won't wait for a minute, can't hesitate
I won't wait for a minute, can't hesitate

Trust me to fall apart, trust you to know
Just you and no-one else, just me alone
Why did it have to be? I should have known
Oh I should have known


11.BIG MAN

I know where I'm heading for
I know what I wanna be
When they asked me at school what I wanted to be
That was all they got from me

I wanna be a big man, nobody putting me down
I wanna be a big man

They say love is all you need
But everyone needs to know
If you look a bit tough when you talk about love
I'm sure that love would grow

I wanna be a big man, nobody putting me down
I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah

Look around, see if I'm wrong
It's only a show for those who don't belong

I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah
I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah

I know what I'm living for
But there ain't no guarantee
If I make a wrong move you could jump in my shoes
And that ain't no good to me

I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah
I wanna be a big man, yeah yeah
