Sweat my youth away
With the rules we have to play Speeding through your magazine Pistol, pavement, no T.V. Talk and talk No time, night time Burnt inside Here comes the daylight, here comes my job Uptown in the penthouse or downtown with the mob Here comes the night time, here comes my role Goodbye to the pavement, hello to my soul Now here comes my job Credit, bleeding with the mob Dreams become ideals No one knows the way I feel Love to love Daytime, right time All my life Here comes the daylight, here comes my job Uptown in the penthouse or downtown with the mob Here comes the night time, here comes my role Goodbye to the pavement, hello to my soul Feel safe in the crowd An no one admits they're crying aloud My career fits like a glove Knowing no orders can come from above Work and work Full time, part time Anytime at all As you face the wall God make it this time or never at all Before your chance has gone Captain this lead role and you'll be the one Shine and shine This time, my time Make me free at last |

Once there was a day
We were together all the way An endless path unbroken But now there is a time A torture less sublime Our souls are locked and frozen Once we were years ahead but now those thoughts are dead Let me go All hopeless fantasies are making fools of me Let me go I walk alone and yet I never say goodbye Let me go A change of heart a change of mind and heaven fell that night Let me go I tried but could not bring The best of everything Too breathless then to wonder I died a thousand times Found guilty of no crime Now everything is thunder Daytime all I want is Nighttime I don't need the Daytime all I want is Nighttime I don't need the The best years of our lives The hope of it survives The facts of life unspoken The only game in town I'll turn the last card down And now the bank is broken Found guilty of no crime They were the best years of our lives I'll turn the last card down |

I'm in a place where nothing ever happens
I'll try one day to walk away But for now I'll hand around I am a fool without exception I break every rule But I never break away (Trouble) - It's walking my way I feel it moving closer day after day (Trouble) - I'm talking to you It's getting hot in here but what can I do Sometime, someplace I'll make it happen Yours is the face, to help me set this time ablaze I've always thought there's no protection You'll walk through the door And I'll never want for more (Trouble) - Again and again It's not so simple and I never know when (Trouble) - For me and for you The trouble's double now we're fighting for two We'll take this place we'll make it happen We'll leave them behind We'll leave them all to change their minds The trouble is with the solution One's not so strong, but with two of us we can't go wrong (Trouble) - I'm talking to you It's getting hot in here but what can I do (Trouble) - Again and again It's not so simple and I never know when (Trouble) - I'm talking to you It's getting hot in here but what can I do |

I was thirty-seven
You were seventeen You were half my age The youth I'd never seen Unlikely people meeting in a dream Heaven only knows the way it should have been Here today my tomorrow Where you lead I will follow All that kissing No passion missing Come live with me Kiss the boys goodbye Dinner parties followed And all my age implies My friends began to talk I began to realise If half the things they say Are quarter true of me Then how can I eclipse the youth You gave to set me free There was something in your smile That was hard to reconcile The time had come to testify to reason Though years will not erase Remembrance of those days At least there's no submission to hearts treason Here today my tomorrow No more shame only sorrow All that kissing There's something missing Come live with me Kiss the boys goodbye Now there's nothing left to cry for And there's nowhere left to go Just another hopeless fight But how were we to know The strong are sometimes wrong But the weak are never free The choice we made we can't evade Don't try to follow me Here today my tomorrow No more pain only sorrow All that kissing There's something missing Come live with me Kiss the boys goodbye Come live with me Kiss the boys goodbye |

Call me in the morning just before the breakfast show
We'll watch TV and analyse the weather Before we go to work we'll have planned the day ahead We'll while away the working day together Work all day or work all night it's all the same If you want to play Some are nurses Some steal purses Some are workers Some are not It is time for a party Liberation for the nation now! Crushed by the wheels of industry There's a party going on that's going to change the way we live but how do we know we've even been invited Now the invitation's waiting and the table is reserved So just play it cool and don't get excited Work all day or work all night it's all the same Will we ever change It's vocation or vacation Some are workers some are not It is time for a party Syncopation for the nation now Crushed by the wheels of industry Breaking in the future just before the week is up They can do it but it's going to take some money Have what you desire if and when you see the fact They will lead us to the land of milk and honey Work all day or work all night it's all the same If you want the pay Some drive tankers Some are bankers Some are workers Some are not It is time for a party Liberation for the nation now! |

Sun crazed in our room
It was an endless afternoon It seemed that we were so immune The nights were stronger and longer I fell on my pillow saying "Tell the world that lucky's calling Gold dust falling Here in Action Town" Sunset now Sunset now Sunset now Sunset now Blade flew into town In time to watch the sun go down He said the new prince must be found The message shattered our windows We know it was over, saying "Tell the boys that we're not handing Over any part Of Action Town" Sunset now Sunset now Sunset now now! now! Pay out, run out, work out, die out Action Town (Action Town) If you have the name Then you win the game In Action Town (Action Town) Bang bang you're dead It's raining bread Sunset now Now that we have gone Do we have strength to carry on It seems like all our sun has shone It seems our dice are as cold as ice But something in my heart keeps saying Tell the world that lucky's coming Lines are humming Here comes Action Town" Sunset now (to fade) |

The glowing streets
Light up the heavy sky Out of nowhere I return to you Even as we meet This curious girl Fell back to sleep This time for keeps But I won't surrender Find some way I think she's going to pay On that day I knew (Cold heart, flamedown) It was me and you Burn out, flamedown) Under burning sky Look up, flamedown) You shall carry me Along the streets Awake and paralysed Take the slow lane We'll enjoy the view As we move along The girl will sing This curious song And she won't speak But she will remember What's ahead And what is left unsaid Caught up in the heat Burn out, flamedown) Out on judgement street (Watch out, flamedown) I see no way out (Hold out, flamedown) I can hear you shout (Move out, flamedown) Chorus 3: Hold on don't give in Stay out, flamedown) To the flame within (Burn out, flamedown) Want you to agree (No doubt, flamedown) When you talk to me (Shout out, flamedown) |

No more wasting time
Synchronize Tell them this is mine Don't Walk the other way Tell me you will stay Give me one more day So give up, I'm going on If you stop, It won't change One of us has lost the feeling Which of us is not believing now? You can have it all I don't need it Tell them this is mine Wanting is no crime Happens all the time When it gets you down Rise and leave it Tell them this is mine Push away the stone We are not alone Look into my eyes And together we will rise Above all we've seen We will realize, synchronize Tell them this is mine Wanting is no crime Happens all the time Hold Touch this hand of mine Come away and find What we left behind So move up, we're going on To the top, we'll take it One by one we've got the feeling Which of us is not believing now? Look into my eyes And together we will rise Above all we've seen We will realize, synchronize |

We're going to stop this world from turning
We build it up you knock it down If you go high then we'll go higher Beyond the sky without a sound It's gonna take a lot but we got plenty Keep building up keep movin' round If you use ten then we'll use twenty They're up above and underground - all around We've won we've lost we've counted up the cost And we've evened out the scores we are contenders I'm telling you so pay attention These words of truth come from above In God we trust and he has told me I need you now and I'm talking love We want a piece of what you're selling Put up your hands and face the wall How much it costs there is no telling How much it costs to walk so small - and we're so tall In truth we dare we people just don't care We've got you running scared we are contenders Rich or poor or hiding from the law You know what we've got in store we are contenders You're black, or white, Arab, Christian, Israelite We are hiding in plain sight we are contenders Don't bother asking for a favour I always get all that I want Though some are foolish we are braver Than those who do not have a bomb Forget the turning of the seasons Let's escalate and never stop And yes we've talked but for no reason Let's start again right from the top - countdown 10 - 9 - 8 - 7 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 Got the world on a string but it ain't got that swing You speed it up we slow it down A frontier wilder than the West ever was No sheriff round this outlaw town So Superman if you're listening Help us out you're on the team For truth and justice, the American way The fight for right's not what it seems - with laser beams With gun and sword there is no reward But we're fighting on we are contenders We've won we've lost and we've counted up the cost And we've evened out the scores we are contenders You're black, or white, Arab, Christian, Israelite We are hiding in plain sight we are contenders No virgin birth is going to claim the earth We know what you're worth we are contenders |

But when the fire goes out
The dark starts moving in And that's the truth Right now you're on the stand And I feel like the judge Who needs the proof? The slaves of truth It was on every face in town But I would not understand Waiting for the news Will it ever come my way? I won't be beat, not in a thousand years I'll never lose, if I can prove you're not the one Just leave me now, you're making my blood run cold The word is out, so go, your feet won't touch the ground Now that she has gone I've got to shake the pain, act like a man The sweetness that's inside Will slowly die away Who do you think you are? You're making a fool of me Make no mistake, this is no fake, this is the end Just shut your mouth, make room for someone new So guess who's back, it's happy Jack, and that's no lie How was I to know? So discreet, no-one speaks Take the word from here If you play you've got to pray Who do you think you are? You're making a fool of me Make no mistake, this is no fake, this is the end I won't be beat, not in a thousand years Just leave me now, you make my blood run cold The word is, the word is out |
