You had it right in the palm of your hand, right before your eyes
Now it's gone and you don't understand, you've got to realize There comes a time when you've got to let things go as fast as they come Wait and see what tomorrow may bring you, get it all while you can Sometimes it just feels so right, and other times so wrong Every new day it brings on the night, the change goes on and on and on and on It never stops, no it keeps on rollin', wiped away like an [arch of] sand Here it comes, there it goes, always changin' ends Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, that's what they call it Ez come ez go, ez come ez go, oh no!

Hey! yeah, yeah. Uh huh. Bustin' ass all day Just to put food on the table. And I always will for as long as I am able. Done all I could, Ev'rything that a man should do. Still they refuse to call me, Call me what I am. Hey! Do you know what it takes to be a man? Don't take a whole lots of money, Diamond rings upon your hand, no. That ain't what it takes to be a man. Do right by the ones you love, Always give a helpin' hand. Yes, I do. Now I've been through it all Seen the good, the bad, the ugly. Always take care of my share of responsibilities. Now, just because I grow my hair And play in a rockin' band, Old folks are always telling me, "Boy, why don't you grow up And be a man." Hey! I know what it takes to be a man. It ain't the way you look Or the clothes that you wear. That ain't what it takes to be a man. Do right by the ones you love, Always lend a helpin' hand. I know I got what it takes, I know I got what it takes to be a man. So go ahead and say what you will. Because I know what I am, Just what I am. Ow! Alright. Ow! Hey!

Down on the corner, walkin' the streets. She smiles for ev'ryone she meets. He's not a man, no, he's just another trick. She'd do it all just to get that fix. Did you do it for love? Did you do it in the name of love? No, it ain't love she's gonna find. She's got just one thing on her mind: Chorus: Money. She did, she did it for the money. All in the name of money. All for the dirty green. Cold in the city with the traffic slow. He's got nobody, no place to call home. But he's got a habit, oh, that he can't control; Takin' hard earned money from a poor, helpless soul. Didn't do it for love. Didn't do it in the name of love. No, it ain't love he's out to find. He's got just one thing on his mind: Chorus: Money. He did, he did it for the money. All in the name of money. All for the dirty green. Bridge: And the young girl, she gets down on her knees, she's there to please. She wants her money. And then the young man says, "Now, put your hands in the air. Give me what I want, Give me what I need. Now don't you see? All I want, all I want, all I want is your money, yeah. Give it to me!" He's got the money, left the scene of the crime. Not a clue would he leave behind. One's bad misfortune make for another's eats. And now the young girl's trick's his treat. Chorus: Money. He did, he did it for the money. All in the name of money. All for the dirty green. For the money. He did it, did it for the money. All in the name of money. All for the dirty green. |

Outta touch with reality To the point of insanity, yeah. Chorus: Goin' down on a flight to nowhere. Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast. Goin' down, I'm on a flight to nowhere. Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down. Opinion is a piece of mind. Some are good, some are just like Where the sun don't shine. You know sometimes they can stick out loud, yeah. Now, the more you look, the more you're gonna find. More than enough to blow your mind. It's such a mess, it's a cryin' shame. And we've only got ourselves to blame. Chorus: Goin' down on a flight to nowhere. Goin' down, gettin' nowhere fast. Goin' down, I'm on a flight to nowhere. Goin' down, goin' down, goin' down. So just stop, let me off.

There she stood in living color, standin' all alone. So I walked up to her, I say, "How do you do?" And she said, "I don't". Lady Luck took a walk. When all I wanted was some company. Lady Luck took a walk. You know she walks right out on me. Hard as it seems, but not as hard to believe. What can it be? I guess I'm on a losin' streak. And I know it's true, I got a bad attitude.

You're guilty of crime in the first degree,
Second and third as well. My jury finds you'll be serving your time When you go straight to hell. 'Cause he was Lord of the Lightning, Though "socially frightening", But never out to sell. Their nickels and pence Meant more than did sense, And not the sensible thing. Nor did the man outta time, man outta time. Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind. Man outta time, man outta time. All along, world was wrong. You was right. All that he saw, all he conceived, They just could not believe. Steinmetz and Twain were friends that remained, Along with number three. He was electromagnetic, completely kinetic, "New Wizard of the West." But they swindled and whined that he wasn't our kind, And said Edison knew best. He was the man outta time, man outta time. Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind. Man outta time, man outta time. Said you was outta your mind! You took a shot and it did you in. Edison's medicine. You played your cards, but you couldn't win. Edison's medicine. I spent twelve years of hard time, More like the best years of my life. Never heard or read a single word About "the man" and his "wicked mind." They'll sell you on Marconi. Familiar, but a phony. Story goes they sold their souls And swore that you'd never know. About the man outta time, man outta time. Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind. Man outta time, man outta time. Swore you was outta your mind! You took a shot and it did you in. Edison's medicine. You played your cards, but you couldn't win. Edison's medicine. |

I feel I got me some damn good reasons for feelin' bad. Way they take away ev'ry mother's son, If you want freedom now, it's got to be won. It's only bullets. It's just a gun. Ain't gon' hurt no one. I don't know what they must be thinkin'. Makin' decisions on a hard night's drinkin'. Momma, gon' take your little boy. Gonna make him 'to a man, Make him a stranger in a strange land.

Freedom slaves And all for number one. Freedom slaves It's clear to see that we're all freedom slaves. No sign of justice nor liberty By takin' an Indian Nation, 'cause they was all that we wanted to be. All good people from the Kingdom of the Sun. Welcome to freedom. Now, there's work to be done. It's only natural to know it's wrong. Why did it go so long? I don't know what next they'll be killin', Rapin' the land with pollution and spillin'. Here's to the tired, to the hungry, to the helpless and the poor. Is there no glory for blisters and sores? (Chorus) Who are those people? So patriotically sittin' back of tables POn their asses, lickin' labels, tryin' to change me. You'd think the way they act, the way they carry on, You'd think that I was the devil's Seventh Son. But it's only words. It's just a song. Ain't gonna hurt no one. (Chorus) Freedom slaves. Freedom slaves. Freedom slaves. Attention! About Face! March! Left, right, left, right, left, right.

Out on the road, and a long long way from home Why must I be so, must I be so misunderstood While my intentions, my intentions all are good Wish only one time that things would turn out like they should Just like they should Too many times, too many times payin' the price, just for the thrill Too many hearts, too many times, overkill So many times, double around, how many faces do reveal How many folks gettin' to be over the hill She always told me things, like those weren't made of sugar and spice She always scolded me, "Don't let the same dog bit you twice" Well I, Lord I've just been fooled again Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool Mama I ain't no fool - I've just been fooled again Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool Mama I ain't no fool - well I've just been fooled again Too many lies, shame on the wives, too many cakes and eat it too Too many hearts goin' straight down the tube Hell of a dude, did it but don't have the time and the words for use Too many rounds, too many times, overuse She's always telling me, "Just take your time, always think twice" Forever scolding me, "Don't let the same dog bit you twice" Well I, hell I've just been fooled again Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool Mama I ain't no fool - I've just been fooled again Mama she raised no fool - she did not raise a fool Mama I ain't no fool Oh, let me tell you if it happens again like it did next time Somebody's gonna have to walk the line, walk the line! (Solo) She's always telling me, "Take my advice boy and just think twice" Forever scolding me, "Don't let the same dog bit you twice" Well I, Lord I won't be fooled again Mama she raised no fool - you did not raise no fool Mama I ain't no fool - I've just been fooled again Mama she ain't no fool - I may be crazy but I ain't no fool Mama you crazy fool - may be crazy but I ain't no fool Crazy but I ain't no fool, may be crazy, I may be crazy Crazy but I ain't no fool Out in the cold, and a long long way from home |

And the sign says "Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
So I put my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why He said you look like fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that, huh. me working for you" Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs Blockin'out the scenery, breakin'my mind Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign And the sign says "Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight" So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house Hey! What gives you the right! To put up a fence and keep me out, or to keep Mother Nature in If God was here, he'd tell it to your face, man, you're some kind of sinner Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs Blockin'out the scenery, breakin'my mind Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign Oh, say now mister, can't you read You got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat You can't watch, no you can't eat, you ain't supposed to be here And the sign says: "You got to have a membership card to get inside"-uh! And the sign says: "Everbody welcome, come in, kneel down and pray" But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all and I didn't have a penny to pay So I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own sign I said, "Thank you Lord for thinking'bout me, I'm alive and doing fine",oh Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs Blockin'out the scenery, breakin'my mind Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs Blockin'out the scenery, breakin'my mind Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign |

I'm in love with a lady
And I know the lady's in love with me And she knows how to always be there That's why she's willin' and ready But now and then, every once in a while Something inside of me, maybe inside of her... Have you ever had one of those days Where it all is going wrong And it just can't seem to get along? But through it all you know you're gonna make it. Call it true love Call it not meant to be You can call it anything at all, you see. Call it what you want It's all the same to me. Music means a lot to me Like love, I make it when I can. All I am is all I'll ever be And that's just a boy from Texarkana. But now and then oh, but once in a while, They start treating me like some kind of superstar. Need I mention, at the end of the day What matters most of all It's not where you're at Or where you're comin' from When all is said and done You can call it... Heavy metal, hard-core, pop, punk, or thrash You can call it anything, it don't matter to me Call it what you want It's all music to me Call it communism, call it free Some call the ocean what some call the sea Call it what you want That doesn't change a thing for me Not a thing... Baby's lyin' in the cradle Universe is all within his reach Wearin' rags or mink and sable Needs a guidin' hand or it's out on the streets Now momma's out She's never at home Daddy's taking care of business He's out on the road It's rainin' cats and dogs But the child within us all must face the storm Call it individuality Some call it fate, others reality Call it what you want It doesn't matter to me Call it communism, call it free Some call the ocean what some call the sea Call it what you want That doesn't change a thing for me Not a thing! |

I ain't no program on your television screen.
They only taught me what they wanted me to be. Heard all your so-called facts. Now hit me with the truth. Takes a lotta nerve the way you played me for the fool. It's my personal selection to fly in my own direction. No time for fuckin' 'round with mediocrity. Takes ev'rything I got just tryin' to be me. Life's like a highway. We're all try'n' to stay on time. Travel atcha own speed. You take your lane, I'll take mine. Don't believe all that you hear or half of whatcha see. 'S'waste o' time to criticize. Don't de-rock me. (Chorus:) Don't de-rock me. Don't de-rock me. You be you and I'll be me. Don't de-rock me. "Backstage Betty", banana in her cherry, in the shower down on her knees. Like to think she'll own ya if she'll do all that ya please. Hurts like a mother bein' cursed by a punter who's five sheets to the wind. Won't stop at nothin', claimin' to be cousin till security lets 'em in. Now I'm no symbol of perfection, so why deal with this infection? Tired of bein' treated like some piece of property. Fakes, lies, patronizin' don't sit well with me. Blastin' down the highway, try'n' to stay between the lines. You can get to where you're go'n'. Just don't ignore the signs. Don't de-rock me. Don't de-rock me. 'S'waste o' time to criticize. Don't de-rock me. (Chorus) |

You're guilty of crime in the first degree,
Second and third as well. My jury finds you'll be serving your time When you go straight to hell. 'Cause he was Lord of the Lightning, Though "socially frightening", But never out to sell.

Man outta time, man outta time. All along, world was wrong. You was right. All that he saw, all he conceived, They just could not believe. Steinmetz and Twain were friends that remained, Along with number three. He was electromagnetic, completely kinetic, "New Wizard of the West." But they swindled and whined that he wasn't our kind, And said Edison knew best. He was the man outta time, man outta time. Thought you was crazy. You was one of a kind. Man outta time, man outta time. Said you was outta your mind! You took a shot and it did you in. Edison's medicine. You played your cards, but you couldn't win. Edison's medicine. I spent twelve years of hard time, More like the best years of my life. Never heard or read a single word About "the man" and his "wicked mind." They'll sell you on Marconi. Familiar, but a phony.

Swore you was outta your mind! You took a shot and it did you in. Edison's medicine. You played your cards, but you couldn't win. Edison's medicine. |

I feel I got me some damn good reasons for feelin' bad. Way they take away ev'ry mother's son, If you want freedom now, it's got to be won. It's only bullets. It's just a gun. Ain't gon' hurt no one. I don't know what they must be thinkin'. Makin' decisions on a hard night's drinkin'. Momma, gon' take your little boy. Gonna make him 'to a man, Make him a stranger in a strange land.

Freedom slaves And all for number one. Freedom slaves It's clear to see that we're all freedom slaves. No sign of justice nor liberty By takin' an Indian Nation, 'cause they was all that we wanted to be. All good people from the Kingdom of the Sun. Welcome to freedom. Now, there's work to be done. It's only natural to know it's wrong. Why did it go so long? I don't know what next they'll be killin', Rapin' the land with pollution and spillin'. Here's to the tired, to the hungry, to the helpless and the poor. Is there no glory for blisters and sores? (Chorus) Who are those people? So patriotically sittin' back of tables POn their asses, lickin' labels, tryin' to change me. You'd think the way they act, the way they carry on, You'd think that I was the devil's Seventh Son. But it's only words. It's just a song. Ain't gonna hurt no one. (Chorus) Freedom slaves. Freedom slaves. Freedom slaves. Attention! About Face! March! Left, right, left, right, left, right. Your momma, she was a....(fade out) |

(Chorus:) Freedom slaves What have you done Freedom slaves With ev'ry mother's son? Freedom slaves Can't ya see that we're all freedom slaves? Freedom slaves What have you done? Freedom slaves And all for number one. Freedom slaves It's clear to see that we're all freedom slaves. No sign of justice nor liberty By takin' an Indian Nation, 'cause they was all that we wanted to be. All good people from the Kingdom of the Sun. Welcome to freedom. Now, there's work to be done. It's only natural to know it's wrong. Why did it go so long? I don't know what next they'll be killin', Rapin' the land with pollution and spillin'. Here's to the tired, to the hungry, to the helpless and the poor. Is there no glory for blisters and sores? (Chorus) Who are those people? So patriotically sittin' back of tables POn their asses, lickin' labels, tryin' to change me. You'd think the way they act, the way they carry on, You'd think that I was the devil's Seventh Son. But it's only words. It's just a song. Ain't gonna hurt no one. (Chorus) Freedom slaves. Freedom slaves. Freedom slaves. Attention! About Face! March! Left, right, left, right, left, right. Your momma, she was a....(fade out) |

Go straight to hell,
All you government personnel, Sittin' awf'ly well In your big, white house up on the hill. You say now, give me a home Where the buffalo roam, Where the deer and antelope play. You can bet your ass we'll blow them all away. Fuck it up until it's bent, Then a-wonder where it went. Thinkin' you was a-heaven sent, ha ha ha, You're nothin' but hell! Go straight to hell. |

All the nights awake and the tears we've cried Could fill the seven seas. So, c'mon, ev'rybody, c'mon, ev'rybody, We got to give ourselves, got to give ourselves a hand. And if we feel it's all a mess, yeah, yeah, Why don't we try a little, try a little love 'n' tenderness. If we got more than comes around, yeah, yeah, Why don't we care a little, share a little. Sure to come back around. Guitar! Lately everybody's thinkin' Me, my, only I thinkin' for me. Here lately, everbody's talkin', baby. But we all know that talk is cheap. We can make it happen if we make a try. All the nights awake and the tears we've cried Could fill the seven seas. So, c'mon, ev'rybody, c'mon, ev'rybody, We gotta give ourselves, gotta give ourselves a hand, yeah. And before it falls apart, yeah, yeah, Why don't we live a little, give a little, straight from the heart. And if this old world gets ya down, yeah, yeah, You gotta pick it up and toss it in the air, kick it all around. Kick it! I don't even know how I wanna say, but I know what I wanna say. Do you know where I'm comin' from? As the bass plays on, and still the guitars strum, While the Colonel beats the drum, so the whole band plays along, And the whole world sings a song, yeah, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And before it falls apart, yeah, yeah, Live a little, give a little, straight from the heart. If this whole world gets ya down, yeah, yeah, You gotta pick it up and toss it in the air.

Stir it up, baby, stir it up, Stir it up, stir it up, stir it up, Stir it up now, stir it up, baby. Stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby, stir it up, Stir it up, stir it up, stir it up, stir it up, Stir it up now, stir it up, baby. And you know: Nobody gets somethin' for nothin'. Nobody's gettin' it for free. (Spoken:) But you know These days now nothin' costs ya somethin', baby. And-a there ain't no tellin what it could be. So stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby. Stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby. Stir, stir it up, baby, stir it up, baby. Oh, U B U and I'll be me, and the world will be free. |

You've got to wake up ev'rybody, Seven-thirty o'clock, It's time to go to work. A-send the young to school, Gonna teach them the golden rule. Talk about things that they don't wanna know about. Now teacher, teacher, can't you see, I'm tired and I need some sleep. I don't wanna hear whatcha gotta say About arithmetic or history. All that jive don't mean a thing to me. It's all a waste of time. I ain't got no time for doin' this, Ain't got no time for doin' that, Ain't got no time for that at all, no! I ain't got no time for messin' 'round, For funky bullshit goin' down. Just time for rock-n-roll. Oh yeah. I just got time to rock-n-roll. Why now, must they take my favorite song, Turn around and say it's wrong, when I know it's right? Now, why don't they just leave it alone, 'Cause it's only rock-n-roll, but I like it!! Now, listen Mrs. Politician, Don't ya try to tell me how to sing my song. Tell me, who do you think you are?! Who do you think you are?! I ain't got no time for messin' 'round, For funky bullshit goin' down. No time for that at all, no! I ain't got no time for Uncle Sam, Taxin' my money, tax my land. Just time for rock-n-roll, woh yeah! I just got time to rock-n-roll! Tell 'em, Frankie!! |
