1. WHATEVER YOU WANT

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choice
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose

You're showing off
You're showing out
You look for trouble
Turn around, give me a shout
I take it all
You squeeze me dry
And now today
You couldn't even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can't refuse

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choice
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose

You're showing off
You're showing out
You look for trouble
Turn around, give me a shout
I take it all
You squeeze me dry
And now today
You couldn't even say goodbye

I could take you home
On the midnight train again
I could make an offer you can't refuse

Whatever you want
Whatever you like
Whatever you say
You pay your money
You take your choice
Whatever you need
Whatever you use
Whatever you win
Whatever you loose

Whatever you want


2.SHADY LADY

Run your fingers thru my hair sweet darling
Run your fingers thru my hair
I want you when you never there sweet darling
Need you but I could not care

You got long black hair on your legs
And I like them smooth
You don't show me you care
You won't even move
That's why I call you shady lady

I wish I hadn't turn my head that morning
Wish I hadn't turned my head
Or listened to the things you said that morning
Listened to the things you said

I get away where nobody goes
And she finds me there
She won't leave me alone
She don't even care
That's why I call here shady lady, shady lady

They say, I say
You gotta lay it down the line
So get away-way I say
If you're only playing with my time
I gotta keep you off of my back
Cos you're making me feel so bad
I gotta get along, get along, get along
Without you now

Run your fingers thru my hair sweet darling
Run your fingers thru my hair
I want you when you never there sweet darling
Need you but I could not care

I get away where nobody goes
And she finds me there
She won't leave me alone
She won't even care
That's why I call her shady lady, shady lady

I gotta get along, get along, get along
Without you now
I gotta get along, get along, get along
Without you now
I gotta get along, get along, get along
Without you now


3.WHO ASKED YOU

There you go again
Telling me the same mistakes I made
There you go again
Telling me the way I should have played
Your silver tongue can talk away
And tell me all I should have done
But you allways be the same
'til the very last time has come

Seventeen years
And it ain't no worth giving a try you said
But I wouldn't be living
If any year was never spent
So when I see you up in arms
I wonder where your time has gone
Are you throwing it away
'til the every last time has come

Who asked you
To prey on my feelings
Lying low in every cloud
Who asked you
I've never been the one
To give you any kind of reason
Who asked you

Who asked you
When I was still learning
To come along and put me down
Who asked you
I made it anyway
While every cloud was slowly turning
Who asked you
Who asked you

There you go again
Telling me the same mistakes I made
There you go again
Telling me the way I should have played
There never was a better way
Than living like the way I've done
Oh, and living is the game
'til the very last time has come
But you'll always be the same
'til the very last time has come
You're throwing it away
'til the very last time has come

Who asked you


4.YOUR SMILING FACE

I would not lie, I've apologised
'Til my face is turning blue
But I just can't get the message through to you
It was all a joke, and we hardly spoke
She was the sister of a friend
And I promise you I won't see her again.

Oh I would not lie 'cos I could not try to fool you
Oh I would not lie 'cos I could not stand to lose you
I know we made mistakes, had some minor breaks
But the song remains the same
And I need to see your smiling face again

Won't you stay for another day
Or maybe another night
Can't you understand that you make me feel alright?
I act uncool but I'm nobody's fool
And you know I'll see you right
Yeah, I promise you I'll make you smile tonight

Oh I would not lie 'cos I could not try to fool you
Oh I would not lie 'cos I could not stand to lose you
I know we made mistakes, had some minor breaks
But the song remains the same
And I need to see your smiling face again

Oh I would not lie 'cos I could not try to fool you
Oh I would not lie 'cos I could not stand to lose you
I know we made mistakes, had some minor breaks
But the song remains the same
And I need to see your smiling face again


5.LIVING ON AN ISLAND

Easy when you're number one
Everybody say you're having fun
Smiling for the public eye
When your body say you wanna die
Living on an island
Looking at another line
Waiting for my friend to come
And we'll get high

Hugh he got a real nice place
Cruxie gonna be there soon
And I just want to see his face
I'm getting lonely in my empty room
Living on an island
Working at another line
Waiting for my friend to come
And we'll get high

Passing time away in blue skies
Thinking of the smile in her eyes
Easy, it's easy

Living on an island
Oh boy, we're having fun
Living on an island
Thinking 'bout the things I've done
Living on an island
Searching for an other line
Waiting for my friend to come
And we'll get high
Waiting for my friend to come
And we'll get high
I said we're gonna get high
Yeah, we're gonna get high
We're gonna touch the sky
Sky...sky...sky...sky...sky...sky...


6.COME ROCK WITH ME

On again
No I newer knew we could go on and on
They never thought we would be rockin' on
No we never thought we - could be rockin' on

Home again
And it wont be very long before I'm gone again
Now I'm gone again
And it's never really long before I'm home again
If you like what I like come rock with me
If you like what I like - oh, I'm on again
No I never knew we could go on and on
They never thought we would be rockin' on
No we never thought we - could be rockin' on

Take a look again
Is it really very hard to see the signs again
Were you listening

When I said that I was giving up my worryin'
If you like what I like come rock with me
If you like what I like - oh, I'm on again
No I never knew we could go on and on
They never thought we would be rockin' on
No we never thought we - could be rockin' on

Oh, I'm on again
No I never knew we could go on and on
They never thought we would be rockin' on
No we never thought we - could be rockin' on


7. ROCKIN'ON

I tell you that it makes me feel so happy
When I'm back here somedays slow some speedy
Now I'm on the go again - never letting go again
Will you then
Won't you then

Try again - try again please
If you like what I like come rock with me
If you like what I like
Oh, I'm rockin' on
Oh, I'm rockin on

I'm with you and I feeling so much better
Something tells me the future looks more easy
When I'm on the go again
Never letting go again
Will you then
Won't you then

Try again - try again please
If you like what I like come rock with me
If you like what I like
Oh, I'm rockin' on
Oh, I'm rockin on


8.RUNAWAY

Riding on a high
Riding so high now I'm leaving
Am I running far from my own fears
I'm never facing up
I never face up to the reasons
And never showing any of my tears
Cos I
Leave out the back way
Not the way that I came in
Beacuse it seems like the logical way, at the time

And then I run, run, run
And seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run I'm a runaway
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs

Take me far away
Take me away to an island
And leave me hear to cry in my own tears
Try me once again
Try me again when you're passing
Maybe I'll remember you in years

I can't go out the back way
Just the way that I came in
I hope it seems like the logical way, at the time

Beacuse I'll run, run, run
And seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run I'm a runaway
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs

Looking for so long
But I am listening longer
I haven't seen or heard a thing from you
I can't stay here
I couldn't stay here if you paid me
I can't give you any guarantees
I won't
Go out the back way
Not the way that I came in
Beacuse it seems like the logical way, at the time

And then I run, run, run
And seek a hideaway
I'm on the run, run, run, I'm falling
Run, run I'm a runaway
Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs

Can I go back
Can I go back where I started
I always will remember my needs
I always will remember my needs
I said,I always will remember my needs


9.HIGH FLYER

Here we go another twenty four hours
Every one of them away from you
I'm laughing when I ought to be crying
Baby tell me are you crying too
You see a room in a five-star hotel
It never really meant much to me
Who needs a bottle of '57
When the water back home is free?

I'm just a flyer, I getting higher
Yeah I'm getting higher, a high flyer

I've got no time on the highway
And too much time on the road
I've got no time on the highway
(on the highway)

Here we go another twenty four hours
Making money for the GPO
When we oughtta be taking it easy
We're getting ready for another show
And every day when you're all a-sleeping
And in the night you see the sun
I'm just a face in a crowd of people
Who wanna to tell me I'm the only one

I'm just a flyer, I getting higher
Yeah I'm getting higher, a high flyer

I've got no time on the highway
And too much time on the road
I've got no time on the highway

But do I, do I, do I need to
I'm getting down when I've gotta get back to you
But do I, do I, do I want to
I'm getting down when I've gotta get back to you

I'm just a flyer, I getting higher
Yeah I'm getting higher, a high flyer

I've got no time on the highway
And too much time on the road
I've got no time on the highway

I never got no time on the highway
And too much time on the road
I've got no time on the highway
(on the highway, on the highway on the highway)


10.BREAKING AWAY

Me and my friends gonna make a pile of money
Gonna check it out every day
Me and my wife gonna need every penny
'cos we're throwing it all away

But I'm changing my tune
And I'm breaking away

Me and my friends we're rugged little rockers
And we're lazing away the day
Hot wax jacked-up on the television
And forgetting about the pay

But I'm changing my tune
And I'm breaking away
Breaking away

Four rockers rollin'
With a poet in the wings
Waiting to blow his heart away
Beanos with the road-crew
Postcards to the wife
Stating the menu of the day
Flying through 'til breakfast
Sleeping on the plane
Looking a good deal
Better than we'll ever feel again

Is it really worth it?
Could it all be real?
Am I just living out a dream?
Sitting in a hotel
Falling of the stage
Tuning in to Wonga Queen
Old men in boys' clothes
Has gone beyond a joke
Skin me another
And pass along the Wiskey and the Coke

Me and my friends are hating everybody
Who was telling us what to say
Heads down rockin' on up and down the country only
Living from day to day

And I'm changing my tune
And I'm breaking away
Breaking away
