Make the sadness go away
Come back another day For years I've tried to teach But their eyes are empty Empty too I have become For them I must die A sad and troubled race An ungrateful troubled place I see the sadness in their eyes Melancholy in their cries Devoid of all the passion The human spirit cannot die Look at the pain around me This is what I cry for Look at the pain around me This is what I'll die for Make the sadness go away Come back another day The things I've said and done Don't matter to anyone But still, you push me to see Something, I can never be Why am I their shattered king? I don't mean anything I see the sadness in their eyes Melancholy in their cries Devoid of all the passion The human spirit cannot die Look at the pain around me This is what I cry for Look at the pain around me This is what I'll die for |

Shooting Star
Johnny was a schoolboy when he heard his first Beatles song Love Me Do, I think it was, from there it didn't take him long Got himself a guitar, used to play every night Now he's in a rock and roll outfit and everything's allright Don't you know Johnny told his mama, "Hey, Mama I'm goin' away I'm gonna hit the big time, gonna be a big star some day" Mama came to the door with a teardrop in her eye Johnny said, "Don't cry Mama, smile and wave goodbye" Don't you know Don't you know that you are a shooting star And all the world will love you just as long, as long as you are Johnny made a record, went straight up to number one Suddenly everyone loved to hear him sing his song Watching the world go by, sometimes it can go so fast Johnny looked around him and said, "Damn I made the big time at last" Don't you know Don't you know that you are a shooting star And all the world will love you just as long, as long as you are A shooting star. . . Johnny died one night, died in his bed Bottle o' whiskey, sleeping tablets by his head Johnny's life passed him by like a warm summer day And if you listen to the wind, you can still hear him play Don't you know Don't you know that you are a shooting star And all the world will love you just as long, as long as you are A shooting star. . . |

I had a friend many years ago One tragic night he died The saddest time of my life For weeks and weeks I cried Through the anger and through the tears I've felt his spirit through the years I'd swear, He's watching me Guiding me through hard times (chorus) I feel it once again It's overwhelming me His spirit's like the wind The angel guarding me Oh, I know, oh, I know He's watching over me Oh, I know, oh, I know He's watching over me We shared dreams like all best friends Blood brothers at the age of ten We lived reckless, he paid the price But why? Why did he have to die? It still hurts me to this day Am I selfish for feeling this way? I know he's an angel now Together we'll be someday I feel it once again It's overwhelming me His spirit's like the wind The angel guarding me Oh, I know, oh, I know He's watching over me Oh, I know, oh, I know He's watching over me |

Reflex in the sky warn you you're gonna die Flashes in the sky turns houses into sties Storm coming, you'd better hide from the atomic tide Turns people into clay, radiation minds decay Robot minds of robot slaves lead them to atomic rage plastic flowers, melting sun, fading moon falls upon Burning globe of oxy'n fire, like electric funeral pyre dying world of radiation, victims of mad frustration Rivers turn to wood, ice melting to flood Buildings crashing down to a cracking ground Tearing life away, here's the burning pay Electric Funeral Earth lies in death bed, clouds cry water dead Electric Funeral Electric Funeral And so in the sky shines the electric eye Electric Funeral Heaven's golden chorus sings, Hell's angels flap their wings Evil souls fall to Hell, ever trapped in burning cells! supernatural king takes earth under his wing

I can't believe this now
This isn't what I planned I lived and died and now I just can't understand With all the love I feel I could never leave her No matter what the cost My soul's the price to see her Oh, how I love you The pain won't go away Oh, when I need you You're always so far away I cry for you Leaving myself to blame I died for you I gave up everything The pain was just too much When I finally saw her She's happy and in love In love with my best friend What makes it hurt so bad Is that I love them both And they will never know For love, I sold my soul Oh, how I love you The pain won't go away Oh, when I need you You're always so far away I cry for you Leaving myself to blame I died for you I gave up everything Oh, how I love you The pain won't go away Oh, when I need you You're always so far away I cry for you Leaving myself to blame I died for you I gave up everything |

Music/Lyrics: G. Tipton
(Originally performed by Judas Priest) You're in for surprise You're in for a shock In London town streets When there's darkness and fog When you least expect me And you turn your back I'll attack I smile when I'm sneaking Through shadows by the wall I laugh when I'm creeping But you won't hear me at all All hear my warning Never turn your back On the ripper You'll soon shake with fear Never knowing if I'm near I'm sly and I'm shameless Nocturnal and nameless Except for 'The Ripper' Or if you like 'Jack The Knife' Any back alley street Is where we'll probably meet Underneath a gas lamp Where the air's cold and damp I'm a nasty surprise I'm a devil in disguise I'm a footstep at night I'm a scream of the fright All hear my warning Never turn your back On the ripper...the ripper....the ripper |

Walking in the subway
alone late at night New York city gangs everywhere in sight You feel their anger upon you you feel their hateful eyes walk a little faster now you're fighting for your life As they walk on closer their eyes burn down your back you feel a thousand cries not prepared for their attack A mission bell sent sign a sign that you board soon you've come this far, no turning back we hope you make it too Don't expect, sympathy we don't know, the word you walked my turf, insanity but in this place you die Your life is wasted your blood is tasted as it drips down the blade You didn't make it you couldn't take it you walked the subway you paid Your money's gone your clothes they're torn you're lying in a pool of blood You know you're leaving we watch you grieving but in this place you die Don't expect sympathy we don't know the word you walked my turf, insanity but in this place you die |
