In the mornin you go gunnin' For the man who stole your water And you fire till he is done in But they catch you at the border And the mourners are all singin' As they drag you by your feet But the hangman isn't hangin' And they put you on the street CHORUS: You go back Jack do it again Wheel turnin' 'round and 'round You go back Jack do it again When you know she's no high climber Then you find your only friend In a room with your two timer And you're sure you're near the end Then you love a little wild one And she brings you only sorrow All the time you know she's smilin' You'll be on your knees tomorrow CHORUS Now you swear and kick and beg us That you're not a gamblin' man Then you find you're back in Vegas With a handle in your hand Your black cards can make you money So you hide them when you're able In the land of milk and honey You must put them on the table CHORUS |

Times are hard You're afraid to pay the fee So you find yourself somebody Who can do the job for free When you need a bit of lovin' Cause your man is out of town That's the time you get me runnin' And you know I'll be around CHORUS: I'm a fool to do your dirty work Oh yeah I don't wanna do your dirty work No more I'm a fool to do your dirty work Oh yeah Light the candle Put the lock upon the door You have sent the maid home early Like a thousand times before Like the castle in its corner In a medieval game I foresee terrible trouble And I stay here just the same CHORUS |

Now they lay his body down
Sad old men who run this town I still recall the way He led the charge and saved the day Blue blood and rain I can hear the bugle playin' [Chorus:] We seen the last of Good King Richard Ring out the past his name lives on Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher Raise up your glass to Good King John While he plundered far and wide All his starving children cried And though we sung his fame We all went hungry just the same He meant to shine To the end of the line [Chorus:] We seen the last of Good King Richard Ring out the past his name lives on Roll out the bones and raise up your pitcher Raise up your glass to Good King John |

Felonius my old friend
Step on in and let me shake your hand So glad that you're here again For one more time Let your madness run with mine Streets still unseen we'll find somehow No time is better than nowTell me where are driving Midnite cruiser Where is your bounty Of fortune and fame I am another Gentleman loser Drive me to Harlen Or somewhere the same The world that we used to know People tell me it don't turn no more The places we used to go Familiar faces that aint smilin' Like before The time of our time has come and gone I fear we've been waitin' too long |

A world become one Of salads and sun Only a fool would say that A boy with a plan A natural man Wearing a white stetson hat Unhand that gun begone There's no one to fire upon If he's holding it high He's telling a lie CHORUS: I heard it was you Talkin' 'bout a world Where all is free It just couldn't be And only a fool would say that The man in the street Draggin' his feet Don't wanna hear the bad news Imagine your face There is his place Standing inside his brown shoes You do his nine to five Drag yourself home half alive And there on the screen A man with a dream CHORUS Anybody on the street Has murder in his eyes You feel no pain And you're younger Then you realize CHORUS |

Your everlasting summer, and you can see it fadin' fast
So you grab a piece of something that you think is gonna last But you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand The things you think are precious I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine You've been telling me you were a genius since you were seveteen In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean The weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine I've spent a lot of money and I've spent a lot of time The trip we made to Hollywood is etched upon my mind After all the things we've done and seen you find another man The things you think are useless I can't understand Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine Are you reelin' in the years Stowin' away the time Are you gatherin' up the tears Have you had enough of mine |

I decline to walk the line; they tell me that I'm lazy
Worldly wise I realise that everybody's crazy A womans voice reminds me to serve and not to speak Am I myself or just another freakYou know there's fire in the hole and nothing left to burn I'd love to run out now; there's nowhere left to turnWith a cough I shake it off and work around my yellow stripe Should I hide or eat my pride or wait until it's good and ripe? My life is boiling over; It's happened once before I wish someone would open up the doorDon't you know there's fire in the hole and nothing left to burn I'd love to run out now; there's nowhere left to turn |

A race of angels
Bound with one another A dish of dollars Laid out for all to see A tower room at Eden Rock His golf at noon for freelyn owes the charmer Under meHis lady's aching To bring a body down She daily preaches On where she wants to be An evening with a movie queen A face we all have seenlyn owes the charmer Under meA case of aces Done up loose for dealing A piece of island cooling in the sea The whole of time we gain or lose And power enough to chooselyn owes the charmer Under me |

I hear you are singing a song of the past; I see no tears
I know that you know that it may be the last for many years You'd gamble or give anything to be n qith the better half, But how many friends must I have to begin with to make you laugh Will you still have a song to sing when The razor boy comes and takes your fancy things away Will you still be singing it on that cold and windy day You know that the coming is so close at hand, you feel all right I guess only women in cages can stand this kind of night I guess only women in cages can play down the things they lose You think no tomorrow will come when you lay down you can't refuse [ |

Got a feeling I've been here before
Watching as you cross the killing floor You know you'll have to pay it all You'll pay today or pay tomorrow You fasten up your beaded gown Then you try to tie me down Do you work it out one by one Or played in combination You throw out your gold teeth Do you see how they roll I have seen your iron and your brass Can't you see it shine behind the glass Your fortune is your roving eye Your mouth and legs Your gift for the runaround Torture is the main attraction I don't need that kind of action You don't have to dance for me I've seen your dance before Do you throw out your gold teeth Do you see how they roll Tobacco they grow in Peking In the Year of the Locust You'll see a sad thing Even Cathy Berberian knows There's one roulade she can't sing Dumb luck my friend Won't suck me in this time Tobacco they grow in Peking In the Year of the Locust You'll see a sad thing Even Cathy Berberian knows There's one roulade she can't sing Dumb luck my friend Won't suck me in this time Got a feeling I've been here before Won't you let me help you find the door All you got to do is use Your silver shoes A gift for the runaround Use your knack darlin' Take one step back darlin' There ain't nothing in Chicago For a monkey woman to do Do you throw out your gold teeth Do you see how they roll |

I remember the thirty-five sweet goodbyes When you put me on the Wolverine Up to Annandale It was still September When your daddy was quite surprised To find you with the working girls In the county jail I was smoking with the boys upstairs When I heard about the whole affair I said oh no William and Mary won't do CHORUS: Well I did not think the girl Could be so cruel And I'm never going back To my old school Oleanders growing outside her door Soon they're gonna be in bloom Up in Annandale I can't stand her Doing what she did before Living like a gypsy queen In a fairy tale Well I hear the whistle but I can't go I'm gonna take her down to Mexico She said oh no Guadalajara won't do CHORUS California tumbles into the sea That'll be the day I go Back to Annandale Tried to warn you About Chino and Daddy Gee But I can't seem to get to you Through the U.S. Mail Well I hear the whistle but I can't go I'm gonna take her down to Mexico She said oh no Guadalajara won't do CHORUS |

Hello one and all; was it you I used to know?
Can't you hear me call on this old ham radio? All I've got to say, I'm alive and feeling fine Should you come my way you can share my poison wine No marigolds in the promised land, There's a hole in the ground where they used to grow Any man left on the Rio Grande Is the king of the world as far as I know I won't take your bread; I don't need no helping hand I can't be no savage; I can't be no highwayman Show me where you are; you and I can spend this day Driving in my car through the ruins of Santa Fe I'm reading last years papers, although I don't know why Assassins, cons and rapers might as well die When you come around, no more plain regrets Watch the sun go brown smoking cobalt cigarettes There's no need to hide, taking things the easy way If I stay inside I might live till Saturday No marigolds in the promised land There's a hole in the ground where they used to grow Any man left of the Rio Grande Is the king of the world, king of the world as far as I know |

On the water down in New Orleans,
My baby's the pearl of the quarter She's a charmer like you never seen, Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous? Where the sailor spends his hard earned pay, Red beans and rice for a quarter You can see her almost any day Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous? And if you hear from my Louise, Won't you tell her I say hello Please make it clear when her day is done She got a place to go I walked alone down the Miracle Mile; I met my baby by the shrine of the martyr She stole my heart with her Cajun smile, Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous? She loved the million dollar words I say; She loved the candy and the flowers I bought her She said she loved me anad was on her way Singing voulez, voulez, voulez, vous? And if you hear from my Louise, Won't you tell her I love her so Please make it clear when her day is done She got a place to go |

It's a beggars life, said the Queen of Spain But don't tell it to a poor man 'Cause he's got to kill for every thrill The best he can Everywhere around me I see jealousy and mayhem Because no men have all their peace of mind To carry them Well I don't really care If it's wrong or if it's right But until my ship comes in I'll live night by night When the joker tried to tell me I could cut it in this rube town When he tried to hang that sign on me I said Take it down When the dawn patrol got to tell you twice They're gonna do it with a shotgun Yes, I'm cashing in this ten-cent life For another one Well I ain't got the heart To lose another fight So until my ship comes in I'll live night by night Well I don't really care If it's wrong or if it's right But until my ship comes in I'll live night by night |

I'm not one to look behind I know that times must change But over there in Barrytown they do things very strange And though you're not my enemy I like things like they used to be And though you'd like some company I'm standing by myself Go play with someone else I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown Don't believe I'm taken in by stories I have heard I just read the Daily News and swear by every word And don't think that I'm out of line For speaking out for what is mine I'd like to see you do just fine But look at what you wear And the way you cut your hair I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown In the beginning we recall that the word was hurled Barrytown people got to be from another world Leave me or I'll be just like the others you will meet They won't act as kindly if they see you on the street And don't you scream or make a shout It's nothing you can do about It was there where you came out It's a special lack of grace I can see it in your face I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown |

I could be wrong but I have seen your face before You were the man that I saw running from his door You owed him money but you gave him something more With a gun With a gun You will be what you are just the same Did you pay the other man with the piece in your hand And leave him lying in the rain? You were the founders of the clinic on the hill Until he caught you with your fingers in the till He slapped your hand so you settled up your bill With a gun With a gun You will be what you are just the same Did you pay the other man with the piece in your hand And leave him lying in the rain? When you're born to play the fool And you've seen all the western movies Woe to the one who does you wrong You hide in the bushes Murder the man With Luger in hand I understood that you will soon be leavin' town Don't try to call me when they finally run you down Just give fair warning any time you come around With a gun With a gun You will be what you are just the same Did you pay the other man with the piece in your hand And leave him lying in the rain? |

Charlie Freak had but one thing to call his own Three weight ounce pure golden ring no precious stone Five nights without a bite No place to lay his head And if nobody takes him in He'll soon be dead On the street he spied my face I heard him hail In our plot of frozen space he told his tale Poor man, he showed his hand So righteous was his need And me so wise I bought his prize For chicken feed Newfound cash soon begs to smash a state of mind Close inspection fast revealed his favorite kind Poor kid, he overdid Embraced the spreading haze And while he sighed his body died In fifteen ways When I heard I grabbed a cab to where he lay 'Round his arm the plastic tag read D.O.A. Yes Jack, I gave it back The ring I could not own Now come my friend I'll take your hand And lead you home |

Kids, if you want some fun,
Mister La Page is your man; He's always laughing, having fun, Showing his films in his den. Come on, come on. Soon you will be eighteen, I think you know what I mean Don't tell your mamma, your daddy or mamma, They'll never know where you've been. Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last; Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last. Listen to what I say, He wants to show you the way Right down the hallway with open arms To teach you a new game to play. Come on, come on. Soon it will be too late, Bobbing for apples can wait; I know you're used to sixteen or more, Sorry we only have eight Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last; Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last. solo Come on, come on. Kids, if you want some fun, See what you never have seen; Take off your cheaters sit right down, Start the projection machine. Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last; Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last. |

I would move to another lifetime I'd quit my job Ride the train through the misty nighttime I'll be ready when my feet touch ground Wherever I come down And if the folks will have me Then they'll have me [Chorus] Any world that I'm welcome to Is better than the one I come from I can hear your words When you speak of what you are and have seen I can see your hand Reaching out through a shining daydream Where the days and nights are not the same Captured happy in a picture frame Honey I will be there Yes I'll be there [Chorus] I got this thing inside me That's got to find a place to hide me I only know I must obey This feeling I can't explain away I think I'll go to the park Watch the children playing Perhaps I'll find in my head What my heart is saying A vision of a child returning A kingdom where the sky is burning Honey I will be there Yes I'll be there [Chorus] |

Lost in the Barrio I walk like an Injun,
So Carlo won't suspect something's wrong here. I dance in place and paint my face And act like I belong here. Throw back the little ones and pan fry the big ones; Use tact, poise and reason and gently squeeze them. Hot licks and rhetoric don't count much for for nothing; Be glad if you can use what you borrow. So I pawn my crown for ride uptown And buy it back tomorrow. Done like a matador I pray for the weekend And hope the little girls still throw roses. Else I change my bait and move upstate Before the season closes. |

While the music played
You worked by candle light Those San Fransisco nights You were the best in town Just by chance you crossed The diamond with the pearl You turned it on the world That's when you turned the world around Did you feel like Jesus Did you realize That you were a champion in their eyes On the hill the stuff Was laced with kerosene But yours was kitchen clean Everyone stopped to stare At your technicolor motorhome Every A-Frame had your Number on the wall You must have had it all You'd go down to LA on a dare And you'd go it alone Could you live forever Could you see the day Could you feel your whole world Fall apart and fade away Get along Get along Kid Charlemagne Get along Kid Charlemagne Now the patrons have all Left you in the red Your low-rent friends are dead This life can be very strange All those day-glow freaks Who used to paint the face They've joined the human race Some things will never change Son you were mistaken You are obsolete Look at all the white men On the street Clean this mess up Or we'll all end up in jail Those test-tubes and the scale Just get them all out of here Is there gas in the car I think the people down the hall Know who you are Careful what you carry 'Cause the man is wise You are still an outlaw in their eyes |

I recall when I was small
How I spent my days alone The busy world was not for me So I went and found my own I would climb the garden wall With a candle in my hand I'd hide inside a hall of rock and sand On the stone an ancient hand In a faded yellow-green Made alive a worldly wonder Often told but never seen Now and ever bound to labor On the sea and in the sky Every man and beast appeared A friend as real as I Before the fall when they wrote it on the wall When there wasn't even any Hollywood They heard the call And they wrote it on the wall For you and me we understood Can it be this sad design Could be the very same A wooly man without a face And a beast without a name Nothin' here but history Can you see what has been done Memory rush over me Now I step into the sun Before the fall when they wrote it on the wall When there wasn't even any Hollywood They heard the call And they wrote it on the wall For you and me we understood |

Agents of the law
Luckless pedestrian I know you're out there With rage in your eyes and your megaphones Saying all is forgiven Mad Dog surrender How can I answer A man of my mind can do anything [Chorus:] I'm a bookkeeper's son I don't want to shoot no one Well I crossed my old man back in Oregon Don't take me alive Got a case of dynamite I could hold out here all night Yes I crossed my old man back in Oregon Don't take me alive Can you hear the evil crowd The lies and the laughter I hear my inside The mechanized hum of another world Where no sun is shining No red light flashing Here in this darkness I know what I've done I know all at once who I am [Chorus] |

Have you heard about the boom on Mizar Five
People got to shout to stay alive They don't even have policeman one Doesn't matter where you been or what you've done Do you have a dark spot on your past Leave it to my man he'll fix it fast Pepe has a scar from ear to ear He will make your mug shots disappear CHORUS: You zombie Be born again my friend Won't you sign in stranger Do you like to take a yo-yo for a ride Zombie I can see you're qualified Walk around collecting Turkish union dues They will call you sir and shine your shoes Or maybe you would like to see the show You'll enjoy the Cafe D'Escargot Folks are in a line around the block Just to see her do the can-can-Jacques CHORUS Love or leave her, yellow fever Sure, it's all in the game And who are you Just another scurvy brother CHORUS |

Babs and Clean Willie were in love they said So in love the preacher's face turned red Soon everybody knew the thing was dead He shouts, she bites, they wrangle through the night She go crazy Got to make a getaway Papa say CHORUS: Oh - no hesitation No tears and no hearts breakin' No remorse Oh - congratulations This is your Haitian Divorce She takes the taxi to the good hotel Bon marché as far as she can tell She drinks the zombie from the cocoa shell She feels alright, she get it on tonight Mister driver Take me where the music play Papa say CHORUS At the Grotto In the greasy chair Sits the Charlie with the lotion and the kinky hair When she smiled, she said it all The band was hot so They danced the famous Merengue Now we dolly back Now we fade to black Tearful reunion in the USA Day by day those memories fade away Some babies grow in a peculiar way It changed, it grew, and everybody knew Semi-mojo Who's this kinky so-and-so? Papa go CHORUS |

Where did the bastard run
Is he still around Now you gotta tell me everything you did baby I'm gonna get a gun Shoot the lover down Are you gonna tell me everything you did baby Traces are everywhere In our happy home Now you better tell me everything you did baby I jumped out of my easy chair It was not my own Now I want to hear about everything you did baby I never knew you You were a roller skater You gonna show me later (Turn up the Eagles the neighbors are listening) You know how people talk I wonder what they say I think you better tell me everything you did baby I never knew you You were a roller skater You gonna show me later You never came to me When you were so inclined Yes you could have told me everything you did baby I know where baby's at I know your filthy mind Now you're gonna do me everything you did baby |

And they wandered in
From the city of St. John Without a dime Wearing coats that shined Both red and green colors From their sunny island From their boats of iron They looked upon the promised land Where surely life was sweet On the rising tide To New York City did they ride Into the street See the glory (See the glory of) Of the royal scam They are hounded down To the bottom of a bad town Amid the ruins Where they learn to fear An angry race of fallen kings Their dark companions While the memory of Their southern sky was clouded by A savage winter Every patron saint Hung on the wall, shared the room With twenty sinners See the glory (See the glory of) Of the royal scam By the blackened wall He does it all He thinks he's died and gone to heaven Now the tale is told By the old man back home He reads the letter How they are paid in gold Just to babble in the back room All night and waste their time And they wandered in From the city of St. John Without a dime See the glory (See the glory of) Of the royal scam See the glory (See the glory of) Of the royal scam See the glory (See the glory of) Of the royal scam |

In the corner Of my eye I saw you in Rudy's You were very high You were high It was a cryin' disgrace They saw your face On the counter By your keys Was a book of numbers And your remedies One of these Surely will screen out the sorrow But where are you tomorrow I can't cry anymore While you run around Break away Just when it Seems so clear That it's Over now Drink your big black cow And get out of here Down to Greene Street There you go Lookin' so outrageous And they tell you so You should know How all the pros play the game You change your name Like a gangster On the run You will stagger homeward To your precious one I'm the one Who must make everything right Talk it out till daylight I don't care anymore Why you run around Break away Just when it Seems so clear That it's Over now Drink your big black cow And get out of here |

Up on the hill
People never stare They just don't care Chinese music under banyan trees Here at the dude ranch above the sea Aja When all my dime dancin' is through I run to you Up on the hill They've got time to burn There's no return Double helix in the sky tonight Throw out the hardware Let's do it right Aja When all my dime dancin' is through I run to you Up on the hill They think I'm okay Or so they say Chinese music always sets me free Angular banjoes Sound good to me Aja When all my dime dancin' is through I run to you |

I've seen your picture Your name in lights above it This is your big debut It's like a dream come true And when you smile for the camera I know they're gonna love it I like your pin shot I keep it with your letter Done up in blueprint blue It sure looks good on you So won't you smile for the camera I know I'll love you better Peg It will come back to you Peg It will come back to you Then the shutter falls You see it all in 3-D It's your favorite foreign movie |

This is the day of the expanding man
That shape is my shade There where I used to stand It seems like only yesterday I gazed through the glass At ramblers, wild gamblers That's all in the past You call me a fool You say it's a crazy scheme This one's for real I already bought the dream So useless to ask me why Throw a kiss and say goodbye I'll make it this time I'm ready to cross that fine line I'll learn to work the saxaphone I play just what I feel Drink Scotch whiskey all night long And die behind the wheel They got a name for the winners in the world And I want a name when I lose They call Alabama the Crimson Tide Call me Deacon Blues My back to the wall A victim of laughing chance This is for me The essence of true romance Sharing the things we know and love With those of my kind Libations Sensations That stagger the mind I crawl like a viper Through these suburban streets Make love to these women Languid and bittersweet I'll rise when the sun goes down Cover every game in town A world of my own I'll make it my home sweet home (refrain) This is the night of the expanding man I take one last drag As I approach the stand I cried when I wrote this song Sue me if I play too long This brother is free I'll be what I want to be |

I know this super highway This bright familiar sun I guess that I'm the lucky one Who wrote that tired sea song Set on this peaceful shore You think you've heard this one before Well the danger on the rocks is surely past Still I remain tied to the mast Could it be that I have found my home at last Home at last She serves the smooth retsina She keeps me safe and warm It's just the calm before the storm Call in my reservation So long hey thanks my friend I guess I'll try my luck again Well the danger on the rocks is surely past Still I remain tied to the mast Could it be that I have found my home at last Home at last |

We're gonna break out the hats and hooters When Josie comes home We're gonna rev up the motor scooters When Josie comes home to stay We're gonna park in the street Sleep on the beach and make it Throw down the jam till the girls say when Lay down the law and break it When Josie comes home When Josie comes home So good She's the pride of the neighborhood She's the raw flame The live wire She prays like a Roman With her eyes on fire Jo would you love to scrapple She'll never say no Shine up the battle apple We'll shake 'em all down tonight We're gonna mix in the street Strike at the stroke of midnight Dance on the bones till the girls say when Pick up what's left by daylight When Josie comes home When Josie comes home So bad She's the best friend we ever had She's the raw flame The live wire She prays like a Roman With her eyes on fire When Josie comes home So good She's the pride of the neighborhood She's the raw flame The live wire She prays like a Roman With her eyes on fire |

Worry the bottle Mamma, it's grapefruit wine Kick off your high heel sneakers, it's party time The girls don't seem to care what's on As long as it plays till dawn Nothin' but blues and Elvis And somebody else's favorite song Give her some funked up music, she treats you nice Feed her some hungry reggae, she'll love you twice The girls don't seem to care tonight As long as the mood is right FM - no static at all Give her some funked up music she treats you nice Feed her some hungry reggae she'll love you twice The girls don't seem to care tonight As long as the mood is right FM - no static at all |

Drive west on Sunset To the sea Turn that jungle music down Just until we're out of town This is no one night stand It's a real occasion Close your eyes and you'll be there It's everything they say The end of a perfect day Distant lights from across the bay Babylon sisters shake it Babylon sisters shake it So fine so young Tell me I'm the only one Here come those Santa Ana winds again We'll jog with show folk on the sand Drink kirschwasser from a shell San Francisco show and tell Well I should know by now That it's just a spasm Like a Sunday in T.J. That it's cheap but it's not free That I'm not what I used to be And that love's not a game for three Babylon sisters shake it Babylon sisters shake it So fine so young Tell me I'm the only one My friends say no don't go For that cotton candy Son you're playing with fire The kid will live and learn As he watches his bridges burn From the point of no return Babylon sisters shake it Babylon sisters shake it So fine so young Tell me I'm the only one |

Special delivery for Hoops McCann Brut and Charisma poured from the shadow where he stood Looking good he's a crowd pleasing man One on one He's schoolyard superman Crashing the backboard he's Jungle Jim again When it's all over we'll make some calls from my car, we're a star It's a glamour profession The L.A. concession Local boys will spend a quarter Just to shine the silver bowl Living hard will take its toll Illegal fun Under the sun All aboard The Carib Cannibal Off to Barbados just for the ride Jock with his radar stalking the dread moray eel At the wheel with his Eurasian bride On the town we dress for action Celluloid bikers is Friday's theme I drove the Chrysler Watched from the darkness while they danced I'm the one [chorus] Hollywood I know your middle name Who inspires your fabled fools that's my claim to fame [solo] Jive Miguel he's in from Bogota Meet me at midnight at Mr. Chow Szechuan dumplings after the deal has been done I'm the one [chorus |

Just when I say "Boy we can't miss You are golden" Then you do this You say this guy is so cool Snapping his fingers like a fool One more expensive kiss-off Who do you think I am Lord I know you're a special friend But you don't seem to understand We got heavy rollers I think you should know Try again tomorrow Can't you see they're laughing at me Get rid off him I don't care what you do at home Would you care to explain Who is the gaucho amigo Why is he standing In your spangled leather poncho And your elevator shoes Bodacious cowboys Such as your friend Will never be welcome here High in the Custerdome What I tell you Back down the line I'll scratch your back You can scratch mine No he can't sleep on the floor What do you think I'm yelling for I'll drop him near the freeway Doesn't he have a home Lord I know you're a special friend But you refuse to understand You're a nasty schoolboy With no place to go Try again tomorrow Don't tell me he'll wait in the car Look at you Holding hands with the man from Rio Would you care to explain Who is the gaucho amigo Why is he standing In your spangled leather poncho With the studs that match your eyes Bodacious cowboys Such as your friend Will never be welcome here High in the Custerdome |

Son you better be ready for love On this glory day This is your chance to believe What I've got to say Keep your eyes on the sky Put a dollar in the kitty Don't the moon look pretty Tonight when I chase the dragon The water will change to cherry wine And the silver will turn to gold Time out of mind I am holding the mystical sphere It's direct from Lhasa Where people are rolling in the snow Far from the world we know Children we have it right here It's the light in my eyes It's perfection and grace It's the smile on my face Tonight when I chase the dragon The water will change to cherry wine And the silver will turn to gold Time out of mind Children we have it right here It's the light in my eyes It's perfection and grace It's the smile on my face Tonight when I chase the dragon The water will change to cherry wine And the silver will turn to gold Time out of mind |

The wind was driving in my face The smell of prickly pear [My rival - show me my rival] The milk truck eased into my space Somebody screamed somewhere I struck a match against the door Of Anthony's Bar and Grill I was the whining stranger A fool in love With time to kill I've got detectives on his case They filmed the whole charade [My rival - show me my rival] He's got a scar across his face He wears a hearing aid Sure he's a jolly roger Until he answers for his crime Yes I'll match him whim for whim now I still recall when I first held Your tiny hand in mine [My rival - show me my rival] I loved you more than I can tell But now it's stomping time Sure he's a jolly roger Until he answers for his crime Yes I'll match him whim for whim now |

Johnny's playroom Is a bunker filled with sand He's become a third world man Smoky Sunday He's been mobilized since dawn Now he's crouching on the lawn He's a third world man Soon you'll throw down your disguise We'll see behind those bright eyes By and by When the sidewalks are safe For the little guy I saw the fireworks I believed that I was dreaming Till the neighbors came out screaming He's a third world man Soon you'll throw down your disguise We'll see behind those bright eyes By and by When the sidewalks are safe For the little guys When he's crying out I just sing that Ghana Rondo E l'era del terzo mondo He's a third world man |

Kids, if you want some fun,
Mister La Page is your man; He's always laughing, having fun, Showing his films in his den. Come on, come on. Soon you will be eighteen, I think you know what I mean Don't tell your mamma, your daddy or mamma, They'll never know where you've been. Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last; Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last. Listen to what I say, He wants to show you the way Right down the hallway with open arms To teach you a new game to play. Come on, come on. Soon it will be too late, Bobbing for apples can wait; I know you're used to sixteen or more, Sorry we only have eight Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last; Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last. solo Come on, come on. Kids, if you want some fun, See what you never have seen; Take off your cheaters sit right down, Start the projection machine. Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last; Everyone's gone to the movies, now we're alone at last. |
