1. SET ME FREE

Gagged, ball and chained
Feel just the same
Heads on the wall
Maybe you're just playing games
Set me free
Mauled by a hound
Hangin' around
Is this for real
I don't know when I'll be found
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free - from you
Taken by force
By you of course
Far from my bed
I know I'd rather be dead
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free - from you
Fire in my brain
Burn me insane
Making your mark
Don't leave me here in the dark
Set me free
Call me a saint
That's what I ain't
Inside my head
Maybe I'll feel better dead
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free - from you


2. HEARTBREAK TODAY

Hey Lady, listen to me
'Cause you ain't never heard of me
Hey woman, open your eyes
'Cause I wanna be seen by you
Oh no, don't go, baby I'm so
Oh no, I know that I'm goin' anyway
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight the way it's like
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight but what it's like
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Heartbreak today
Hey mister, what do you hear
Oh yeah, believe what you wanna hear
Hey sister, what do you see
You're blind, but I know that you can see
I know your way could be my way
You say you stay I'm goin' anyway
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight the way it's like
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight but what it's like
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Heartbreak today
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight the way it's like
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Do you mind tonight I hold you tight but what it's like
It's a heartbreak today, don't leave me this way
Heartbreak today, heartbreak today
Heartbreak today
Don't leave me this way
Heartbreak today
I'm goin' anyway
Heartbreak today


3. NO, YOU DON'T

You keep telling me you hang around while you play around
With the clowns that you've found
It ain't right
Now and then I get tired of the sounds
Of you putting me down while you're playing the town
Every night
I'm getting hung up
Yes I am, yes I am
And you don't give a damn
No you don't - have to treat me like a fool
No you don't - have to be so bloody cool
No you don't - have to make up all the rules
No you don't - no, no, you don't
No you don't
You keep on playing your reckless games
That will give you fame
But I'll take the blame for your name
Well you think you've got my life in your hands
But I'm a man, I'm a man
And I've got my own plans, I'm a man
I'm goin' down
Yes, I am, yes I am
And I don't give a damn
No you don't - have to treat me like a fool
No you don't - have to be so bloody cool
No you don't - have to make up all the rules
No you don't - no, no, you don't
No you don't
No you don't - have to treat me like a fool
No you don't - have to be so bloody cool
No you don't - have to make up all the rules
No you don't - no, no, you don't
No you don't
No you don't - no you don't
No you don't - no you don't
No you don't - no you don't...


4. REBEL ROUSER

Inside out gonna burn tonight
'Cause the heat is on and the time is right
Who is the face that's gonna set the pace
"I'm a rocker, I'm a roller, I'm an outer space"
Come on, come on, well you come on strong
With my knees all weak from your lightning streak
Like a thunder flash, supersonic crash
He appears, you'll freeze
Knock your head over heels
Allright, allright, allright, allright
Rebel rouser, rebel rouser
High speed king worship everything
'Bout the rebel rouser, rebel rouser
Juvenile jive
Gotta be a rebel rouser
Gotta be a rebel rouser
Gotta be a rebel rouser
He got u.v. eyes that can hypnotise
And his sky high lies infra-red disguise
Who is the guy who's gonna catch your eye
"I'm a supersonic racer lasered from the sky"
Look out, look out, when the rebel's out
He can chill your veins, explode your brain
He was born to rule, baby, he's no fool
He was heaven sent, but his soul's hell bent
Allright, allright, allright, allright
Rehel rouser, rebel rouser
High speed king worship everything
'Bout the rebel rouser, rebel rouser
Juvenile jive, gotta be a rebel rouser
Gotta be a rebel rouser
Gotta be a rebel rouser
He's a rebel - he's a rebel...
Allright, allright, allright, allright
Rehel rouser, rebel rouser
High speed king worship everything
'Bout the rebel rouser, rebel rouser
Juvenile jive, gotta be a rebel rouser
Gotta be a rebel rouser
Gotta be a rebel rouser

6. SWEET F.A.

Well it's friday night
And I need a fight
And if she don't spread
I'm gonna bust her head
The guy's gone mad
'Cause his chicks been had
But what can we do
When there's four of you
Sweet f.a. - never gonna make it
Sweet f.a. - people think we fake it
Sweet f.a. - now we're gonna take it
Sweet f.a.
Try to pull me out
Like a roustabout
Gonna spend my bread
Then I'll kick your head
You're just my size
But if you're so wise
See the chick in black
Maybe she'll come back
Sweet f.a. - never gonna make it
Sweet f.a. - people think we fake it
Sweet f.a. - now we're gonna take it
Sweet f.a.
Yeah, the hurstle's now
Really nice somehow
See the street car scene
From the black limousine
Shout it out
Let it all hang out
But you won't get rough
'Cause it's all a bluff
Sweet f.a. - never gonna make it
Sweet f.a. - people think we fake it
Sweet f.a. - now we're gonna take it
Sweet f.a.


7. RESTLESS

You know I've tried to cool it
I've been trying to settle down
But when I think I'm made it
It drives me crazy
Well, I'm staying on the wild side
Always hit the higher ground
Nothing I do
Could amaze me
I'm so restless, so restless
You know it's too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now...
Well I've always been outrageous
But a change has gotta come
Making up my mind
Was never easy
I was born to late to love you
The day will never come
It's love that I need
So don't tease me
I'm so restless, so restless
You know it's too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now...
I'm so restless, so restless
I gotta say it's too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now...
I gotta say ya too late now
Too late now, too late now
Too late now...


8. INTO THE NIGHT

I was a king thought of everything
Into the night
Then I was out everybody shout
Into the night
I kinda was having lots of fun
Into the night
And now I've lost gotta count the cost
Into the night
I couldn't lose
When I was on top
I couldn't lose
But now it's all stopped
I wore a crown then began to frown
Into the night
I cast a spell and it fell on me
Into the night
I dig a hole 'cause I got no soul
Into the night
I hear a phone then began to moan
Into the night
I couldn't lose
When I was on top
I couldn't lose
But now it's all stopped
I'm in a sea floating on one knee
Into the night
I think I'll drown oh I'm going down
Into the night
Is this a dream in agolden beam
Into the night
I look up high and there's no sky
Into the night
I couldn't lose
When I was on top
I couldn't lose
But now it's all stopped


9. A.C.D.C.

She got girls
Girls all over the world
She got men
Every now and then
But she can't make up her mind
On just how to fill her time
But the only way she can wind
Chorus
A.C. D.C.
She's got some other lover as well as me
A.C. D.C.
She's got some other women as well as me
She's got some other women as well as me
She's got phone
But they call her bump
She got sick
You wanna see her dingaling
Well let's be in it together
I'll guess she'll be in it forever
You've got to take it now and ever
Chorus
She got girls
Girls all over the world
She got men
Every now and then
But she can't make up her mind
On just how to fill her time
The only way she can unwind
Chorus
A.C. D.C.
She's got some other woman as well as me...
