Well I was talking to a mirror image of what supposedly was to be me
And the eyes and the nose and the insignificant clothes supported the testimony He said you're doing fine you know You've got an okay mind you know And I would hate to see you throw it away You'd better hold on! Hold on! Hold on! I was telling him I was a bit fatigued about my life both present and past and when I recalled my thoughts of ending it all with an overdose of gas He said you're doing fine you know You've got an okay mind you know And I would hate to see you throw it away You'd better hold on! Hold on! Hold on! Hold on! Hold on! Hold on! |

Cindy I don't want to catch you in his car
Cindy you don't have to play with me no more All the boys are telling stories about you I don't want to hear no stories about you Cindy you don't have to run around any more Cindy you don't have to prove to me that you can score When you dance with the boys in the street Can't you see that it's tearing me apart Hot Razors in my Heart Heart Hot Razors in my Heart Cindy you don't have to make me crawl no more We can make it better than it was before Tell the boys you belong to me Tell them anything but stop this bleeding in my heart Hot Razors in my Heart Heart Hot Razors in my Heart |

Take a ride to the other side of the town
Your eyes are open wide, look around And find out where you're going Social lady is a lawnchair wife, With a new hairstyle, and a different life Sleeps alone in her bed at night. Chorus: I don't have a tie To wear to your affair I don't have a tie to wear. I don't have a tie To wear to your affair I don't have a tie to wear. Take a ride to the other side of the town Your eyes are open wide, look around And find out where you're going Heavy Mary has to dance alone Till her weekend man comes to take her home Mary's ready, but she has to say no. Repeat chorus Oh, play children Play the game for free Oh, play children Play the game for free Take a ride to the other side of the town Your eyes are open wide, look around And find out where you're going Give a hand to your favorite son When he tries to walk and you make him run, Run son Repeat chorus |

When the summer night has changed its warmer breezes to the icy cold of silent winter freezes, will you be there?
When the flowers in the windows of the neighbors start to bow their frozen heads and to leave us, will I see you there? Chorus: Will you stand by me against the cold night, Or are you afraid of the ice? Afraid of the ice? Ice. When the waters of the roaring ocean bring a chilling feeling and the beach is closing, are you near me? When the cloudy skies are blocking out the sun and suddenly your nose has begun to run, do you still hear me? Repeat chorus Will you stand by me against the cold Will you stand by me against the cold Will you stand by me against the cold Ice |

You're semi-macho till the sun goes down
Just like the Wolfman you want to stay around The pressure builds with every drop off the chart you take You'd like to stop but you've only just started to make it Your doctor says that you've got to give it up Your wife she says that she's had about enough Turn up the music cause you're loosing the words Turn up the bottle cause you're loosing your nerve YOU'RE IN POPTOWN HONEY YOU'RE IN POPTOWN HONEY YOU'RE IN POPTOWN HONEY THE SUN ALWAYS SHINES ON YOU The papers say you're sounding better than ever you'd like to tell someone but they've all left ya It doesn't matter cause you're back on top And now you swear that you'll never ever drop again Repeat chorus |

Oh, dad, what will we do?
I got another letter from Ronnie's teacher at school. She said, it's almost cruel None of the other kids thinks Ronnie's cool. The guys think he's a queer because he doesn't drink beer or watch football. And all the little girls stay away because he's just too fat, A fat little brat Chorus: I guess we need robots for Ronnie A stainless steel group of chums Robots for Ronnie A boy and a girl Maybe an aluminum cat Every day he's in his room He doesn't lock the door because he knows it's really no use I mean, nobody's even been up there If Ronnie were to blow up, I don't think anyone would care He doesn't brush his teeth because he never talks to no one. He doesn't wipe his feet because he's never coming in. Comin in? Repeat chorus We can talk about the old days, With parties and dances and leads in class plays; But all of the memories he'll have Are plugging in a friend and shining up a cat. Repeat chorus |

Oh, I could be a hero
I could be a lover of a thousand movie queens I could be a hero I could be anything Caught in the sunrise And I'm blinded by the light Caught in the moonrise And I'm blinded by the night Chorus: Fall asleep in the afternoon How do you know? Fall asleep in the May of June How do you, how do you, how do you, how do you know? How do you know? Bored in the city And I'm trampled by the street. Bored in the country And I'm trampled by the heat. Repeat chorus Bad dreams never stay too long, They always go away by the break of day. So, just sleep when things go wrong, They go away, leave with the day. Repeat chorus Sleep is night begins my day Dreams are real and near is away I close my mind off from the light My day is sleep begins by night All those stories in my head Come to life atop by bed I doze my mind off from the light My day is sleep begins by night Oh, I could be a hero I could be a lover of a thousand movie queens I could be a hero I could be anything, anything in my dreams. |

Sing songs of Soviet sons
Hear the screaming of the midnight guns Send your children to America Where they can live like kings Sing songs of Soviet sons Hear the rain and the soldiers run Send your family to America Where they can live in peace Daddy don't you know It's no different anywhere Daddy don't you know We love it here Daddy you're a fool If you believe Those stories of a better world across the sea Oh, no, we're staying here We're staying Sing songs of Soviet sons Wipe the tears of the frozen ones Keep your family close to you And you can live like kings Sing songs of Soviet sons |
