Locked up in the classroom waiting for the fight
Down to the schoolyard knocking the gate Into the alley meet up with the boys Waiting for the weekend to make a little noise Thunder is strong, lightning is death Kicking the girls and it's starting to blast Sweeter than the heavens and the fate means stumble But it's Saturday night when heavy rock was born Chorus: Like thunder and lightning god damn, it's so exciting It hits you like a hammer god damn It was Saturday night I was ready for the dance My girl walked in holding another guys hand He stood six foot six he looked two miles wide I was taking it easy till he took her outside I was madder than hell and fit to burn This guy would break a leg before but now he's got to run Standing in the corner giving him a thrill You can keep your lover honey, but he's got to pay the bill Well the place started rocking it was Saturday night I was dressed to kill I was feeling alright Alright in the middle of the night I wasn't ready for a rumble but the mood was right When he got up to leave I stood in his way I said love that's the price you have to pay In the doorway up against the wall When they play a heavy record then I'm gonna have a ball We started to rumble and stumble It is we were rocking and rolling and rolling and tumbling I fumbled and started to win When the greater than wicked then I hit him again I hit him again and I couldn't hit him anymore My head was all black and blue and my jaw was sore Sweeter than the heavens and like a frightening stumble It was Saturday night when heavy rock was born |

He gives for what he's got And what he's got he says he has not Stole from anyone It's not that he don't tell the truth Or even that he misspent his youth It's just he holds the proof But you know something's wrong Valentino got nowhere to go On his own like Romeo Blow by blow he watches his money go Now he's oh so low It's not that he misses her Or even that he can't resist her It's just that kissing her He feels so strong Waiting for an alibi Waiting for an alibi Waiting for an alibi Waiting for an alibi Valentino's in a cold sweat, placed all his money on that last bet Against all the odds he smokes another cigarette Says it helps him to forget He's a nervous wreck It's not that he misses much Or even that he lost his lucky touch It's just that he gambles so much And you know that it's wrong Waiting for an alibi Waiting for an alibi Waiting just to catch your eye Waiting for an alibi Waiting for an alibi Try to say I told you I told you Waiting for an alibi Waiting just to get you Waiting for an alibi Waiting for an alibi Just to say I told you Waiting for an alibi Waiting for an alibi Oh my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my |

If you will adore me
Bow before me and praise my name If you place no god before me Then all I have is yours to claim And if God is in the heavens Why did God let children die If you don't ask these questions There is no reasons why [Chorus] We are chosen We are one We are frightened of no one And no one will win this war This is the way This is the law All the visions shown before you All the kingdoms and the thrones All are yours if you bow before me and adore me All this you can own There are those that will go to Heaven There are those that will never win No one knows what will happen There are those that turn to sin [Chorus: x2] We are chosen The devil is in hell with the demons This is the Holy War They lead us to our temptation Lead us, take our souls There is no evil in salvation There is evil in us all Just as Satan tempted Jesus And Jesus slips and falls He is a station on The Cross now He is dying to save us all [Chorus: x2] We are chosen We are one We are frightened of no one And no one will win this war This is the way |

He's a rebel that has fallen down He's a fool been blown away To you and me he's a renegade He's a clown that we put down He's a man that doesn't fit He's a king but not in this town To you and me he's a renegade But he is a king when he's on his own He's got a bike and that's his throne And when he rides he's like the wind To you and me he's a renegade He's just a boy who has lost his sights He's a stranger, prowls the night He's a devil, that's right To you and me he's a renegade Check it out, check his face Look at his eyes, they're so sly I wonder why he cries from the inside I wonder why he's a renegade Oh please, I'm on my begged bended knees Oh please, please heed my call He's just a boy that has lost his way He's just a boy, that's all |

Oh my god
There's millions of them! I've seen a fire start in Frisco The day that the earth quaked I've seen buildings a-blazing Throwing up in flames I heard men, women and children Crying out to their God for mercy But their God didn't listen So they were burned alive They went down, down, deep underground In the great disaster I was hanging out in Berlin In the year one thousand nine hundred and thirty nine I've seen Hitler's storm troopers March right across the Maginot Line I've seen two world wars I've seen men send rockets out into space I foresee a holocaust An angel of death descending to destroy the human race Down, down, deep undergound A great disaster In the sixteenth century there was a French philosopher By the name of Nostradamus Who prophesised that in the late twentieth century An angel of death shall waste this land A holocaust the likes of which This planet had never seen Now, I ask you Do you believe this to be true? I was standing by the bedside The night that my father died He was crying out in pain To his God he said, "Have mercy, mercy!" His body was riddled with a disease Unknown to man so he expected no cure But before he died that night He was lost, insane He went down, down, deep underground A great disaster You'll go down, down, deep underground A great disaster I think they've got now! Angel of Death (Lynott, Wharton) [Lorelei version] -------------- I was hanging round in Frisco In the year of one hundred and nineteen six When I heard about the earthquake The world trembled from within I saw the fire ragin Through all that time I heard people dying They went down, down, deep underground In the great disaster I was hanging out in Berline In the year one hundred nineteen and thirty nine I've seen Hitler's storm troopers March right across the Maginot line I've seen men run away crying "Gas!" Right in front of their throats I wouldn't think that I was squeezing They went down, down, deep underground a great disaster I was standing at the bedside That night my father died I could see him crying for mercy A disease had got his body I was afraid then As I am now The Lord did not hear him He went anyhow He went down, down, deep underground It was a disaster I will go down, down, underground To meet my master Down, down |

Guess who just got back today,
Them wild-eyed boys that'd been away, Haven't changed, had much to say, But man, I still think them cats are crazy. They were askin' if you were around, How you was, where you could be found. Told them you were livin' downtown, Drivin' all the old men crazy. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. You know that chick that used to dance a lot, Every night, she'd be on the floor, shakin' what she's got. Man, when I tell ya she was cool, she was red hot. And that time over at Johnny's place, Well, this chick, she got up and slapped Johnny's face, Man, we just fell about the place, If that chick don't wanna know, forget her. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. Friday night they'll be dressed to kill, Down at Deano's bar and grill The drink will flow, and blood will spill, And if the boys wanna fight you better let 'em. That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song, The nights are gettin' warmer, it won't be long, Won't be long 'til summer comes, Now that the boys are here again. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town. Transcribed by Rich Kulawiec, rsk@ecn.purdue.edu. |

I put my money in a suitcase
And headed for the big race I felt a chill on my backbone As I hung up the telephone Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat Running down the back of my neck To lose means trouble, to win pays double And I got me a heavy bet Cold, cold sweat They say chances on the outside Are looking pretty slim I feel so lucky on the inside I feel I'm gonna to win Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat Running down the back of my neck Take a little money, there's nothing left to lose And I got me a heavy bet Cold, cold sweat I've got me a whole month's wages I haven't seen that much in ages I might spend it in stages And move out to Las Vegas Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat Running down the back of my neck To lose means trouble, to win pays double And I got me a heavy bet Cold, cold sweat I put my money in a suitcase They say chances on the outside I got a whole months wages Stone cold sober and stone cold sweat Stone cold crazy Place another bet |

Don't believe me if I tell you Not a word of this is true Don't believe me if I tell you Especially if I tell you that I'm in love with you Don't believe me if I tell you That I wrote this song for you There might be some other silly pretty girl I'm singing it to Don't believe a word For words are only spoken Your heart is like a promise Made to be broken Don't believe a word Words can tell lies And lies are no comfort When there's tear in your eyes Don't believe me if I tell you Not a word of this is true Don't believe me if I tell you Especially if I tell you that I'm in love with you Don't believe a word |

There is a demon among us Who soul belongs in hell Sent here to redeem us She knows it all too well He comes and goes, he comes and goes She knows it all too well But when all is said and done The sun goes down She tries her best to leave him But she is still capture by his spell She knows now she must deceive him He knows it all to well She comes and goes, she comes and goes He knows it all too well But when all is said and done The sun goes down There is a demon within us The sun goes down She tries her best to deceive him The sun goes down |

Down from the glen came the marching men
With their shields and their swords To fight the fight they believed to be right Overthrow the overlords To the town where there was plenty They brought plunder, swords and flame When they left the town was empty Children would never play again From their graves I heard the fallen Above the battle cry By that bridge near the border There were many more to die Then onward over the mountain And outward towards the sea They had come to claim the Emerald Without it they could not leave |

Tell me the legends of long ago
When the kings and queens would dance in the realm of the Black Rose Play me the melodies I want to know So I can teach my children, oh Pray tell me the story of young Cuchulainn How his eyes were dark his expression sullen And how he'd fight and always won And how they cried when he was fallen Oh tell me the story of the Queen of this land And how her sons died at her own hand And how fools obey commands Oh tell me the legends of long ago Where the mountains of Mourne come down to the sea Will she no come back to me Will she no come back to me Oh Shenandoah I hear you calling Far away you rolling river Roll down the mountain side On down on down go lassie go Oh Tell me the legends of long ago When the kings and queens would dance in the realms of the Black Rose Play me the melodies so I might know So I can tell my children, oh My Roisin Dubh is my one and only true love It was a joy that Joyce brought to me While William Butler waits And Oscar, he's going Wilde Ah sure, Brendan where have you Behan? Looking for a girl with green eyes My dark Rosaleen is my only colleen That Georgie knows Best But Van is the man Starvation once again Drinking whiskey in the jar-o Synge's Playboy of the Western World As Shaw, Sean I was born and reared there Where the Mountains of Mourne come down to the sea Is such a long, long way from Tipperary |
