Dead Or Alive

Your sweet nature, darling
Was too hard to swallow
I've got the solution
I'm leaving tomorrow
And now as I stand
And stare into your eyes
I see safety there--
I want surprises

Chorus:
What I really need to do
Is find myself a brand new lover
Somebody with eyes for me
Who doesn't notice all the others
What I really need to do
Is find a brand new lover

When you wake up tomorrow
You'll be all alone
Oh the love that we had
I have quickly outgrown
I wanted to stay, but I just couldn't do it
Couldn't stand there and put you through it

What I really need to do
Is find myself a brand new lover
Somebody real nice to me
Who doesn't notice all the others
What I really need to do
Is find myself a brand new lover
Somebody real nice to me
Who doesn't notice all the others

Now other loves will tell you that
I'm nothing but a pleasure-seeker
For once I really must agree
I need to leave you by yourself
And go in search of someone else
To satisfy my curiosity

Your sweet nature, darling
Was too hard to swallow
I've made my decision
I'm leaving tomorrow

What I really need to do
Is find myself a brand new lover
Somebody real nice to me
Who doesn't notice all the others
What I really need to do
Is find a brand new lover

What I really need to do
Is find myself a brand new lover
Somebody real nice to me
Who doesn't notice all the others
What I really need to do
Is find myself a brand new lover
Somebody real nice to me
Who doesn't notice all the others

What I really need to do
Is find myself a brand new lover
Somebody real nice to me
Who doesn't notice all the others
What I really need to do
Is find a brand new lover

(repeat chorus until fade)

oh the suns going down
the nights coming in
i got a brain for business and a body for sin
so shoot like a rocket cuz my engine is hot
if you want whats forbidden
baby thats what i got

sex drive(x6)

sex drive it sees no gender or color
so lets get together and collide with each other
sex drive aw you know how it feels
get out of my car and get under my wheels

sex drive(x4)

french kisses a thing of the past
were too young to die so we'd better live fast
the dying is easy the urge is so hard
if your looking for funking then get into my car

im a mercedes benz why dont you jump in
i got a rear view mirror you can watch us in
the harder you drive the smoother i go
i got my engine running

sex drive it sees no gender or color
so lets get together and collide with each other
sex drive aw you know how it feels
get out of my car and get under my wheels

oh the suns coming down
the nights coming in
i got a brain for buisness and a body for sin
so shoot like a rocket cuz my engine is hot
if you want whats forbidden baby thats what i got

get under my wheels(x3)

So turn around and count 2 ten,
Before you lose the only one who really loves you
Somebody who likes you just as you are,
Not how you might have been, Oh! baby
When you turn around again,
I might be with someone else who really loves me,
And now I'll say what I don't want to say,
I'll have you back again, I want you back!

We've both been acting strangely,
And you can hardly face me,
And I can see no fire in your eyes,
We both know the answer,
But one of us won't say it,
Love's the only game in town,
You sure know how to play it,

The future of our love is on the line,
The both of us could lose more than we find,

(chorus)

And if we think about it,
And come to the conclusion,
That I want you, and you want me
We've come to the solution,
And I cannot deny it,
You were my perfect lover,
If paradise is half as nice,
I'll never find another.

And now it's time, for making up your mind,
The future is ahead don't look behind,

(chorus)

I want your love in my hands,
Where I can feel it,
Love in my heart, where I can keep it warm,
Turn up your radio now,
I'm calling out your name,

The love we've got cannot be left behind,
It's time for you to tell me that you're mine,

So turn around and count 2 ten...

I want you back, in my life where
I can hold you,
Back in my dreams, where I can
Keep you warm,
Here on ym lips where I can
Taste your candy kiss.

So turn around...

The guilty look upon your face,
Tells me you'v done something wrong,
Something's missing, my lover's gone,
And we had such a good time.

Money isn't everything,
You could have taken anyone,
Take my car, my diamond rings,
But I don't like my lover gone,

Chorus:
Give it back, that love is mine,
It should be mine exclusively, yeah!
Give it back, don't waste your time,
That love belongs to me,
Give it back that love is mine,
All Mine, All Mine, All Mine, All Mine

My back was turned, I'd never guess,
That you might want to be the next,
I've got to say, that isn't cool
I won't give up that easy,

I wear suprise upon my sleeve,
For all to go and talk about,
You took the thing I really need,
Now I will not be written out,

(chorus)

Can't you see, it's meant for me,
And no-one loves me better
No-one's taking what is mine,
And we must be together,
Now, I want what's all my own
You really shouldn't knock it,
In my arms and in my home,
'Cos, only I can rock it.

Sequins,
Pearls,
Cars,
Girls,
Guns,
Furs,
Diamonds,
Money,

Want them, Take them Have them, Keep them,
Ooh! but hands off, hands off,

(chorus)

One thing I just won't do,
Is stand here peacefully,
And let you walk away now with my baby,
Good looks aren't everything,
But oh! I like pretty things,
And if you touch what's mine,
Then I go crazy.

All Mine (4x)

Do not waste your time,
You know that love is mine,
Gonna cut you down to size yeah, yeah, yeah,
I only want what's mine,
Standing by my side,
Don't wanna hear no lies,

No, No, No

I've been to New York, Paris, and the south of Spain,
And I'll never find a lover like you again,
I hear a Four Tops record on the radio,
And the words remind me, I miss you.

Ah Ah Baby don't say goodbye,
The word is out that we'll soon be parted,
Out of sight isn't out of mind,
So spare a thought for me,

I guess you couldn't face,
The heavy responsibility, of looking at my face,
And knowing you could never lie to me,
Bad dreams can come true
I woke up this morning and I knew I was losing you
Breaking hearts never make a noise,
If they did it would be a sad sound,
I'm not like the other boys,
I refuse to stay here and be clowned around with,
Your love cause pain,
And if I had the chance, I'd do it all again.
Ah Ah Baby don't say goodbye,
The word is out that we'll soon be parted,
Out of sight isn't out of mind,
So spare a thought for me,
Ah Ah Baby don't say goodbye,
Please spare a thought for the broken hearted,
My love baby, it blew your mind
Some things are meant to be,
You were meant for me.
Your love caused pain,
And if I had the chance, I'd take you back again.
Black leather roses wrapped in chain,
You gave romantically,
A jacket studded with your name,
These things I keep eternally,
Bad dreams can come true
I woke up this morning and I knew I was losing you
Ah Ah Baby don't say goodbye,
The word is out that we'll soon be parted,
Out of sight isn't out of mind,
So spare a thought for me,
Ah Ah Baby don't say goodbye,
Please spare a thought for the broken hearted,
My love baby, it blew your mind
Some things are meant to be,
You were meant for me.
I've been to New York, Paris, and the south of Spain,
And I'll never find a lover like you again,
I hear a Four Tops record on the radio,
And the words remind me, I miss you.

Your love caused pain,
But if I had the chance, I'd do it all again
Ah Ah Baby don't say goodbye,
The word is out that we'll soon be parted,
Out of sight isn't out of mind,
So spare a thought for me,
Ah Ah Baby don't say goodbye,
Please spare a thought for the broken hearted,
My love baby, it blew your mind
Some things are meant to be,
You were meant for me.
Ah Ah Baby don't say goodbye,
The word is out that we'll soon be parted,
Out of sight isn't out of mind,
So spare a thought for me,
Ah Ah Baby don't say goodbye,
Please spare a thought for the broken hearted,
My love baby, it blew your mind
Some things are meant to be
You were meant for me.
You were meant for me.

Please, Stop, Kicking My Heart Around,
Spending my money and driving my car around
Cheapening our love, with everyone in town
I said Stop, Kicking My Heart Around.
Oh- Oh- Oooohooh! I said Stop.

Hi! Hello! How are things,
I see you've been blown in by a wicked wind,
I hoped that you were gone forever,
Take your chains and take your leather,
I've seen the world a time or two,
And I've never seen anything quite like you,
But I have changed, I'm not the same,
I can't go through that stuff again,

It's funny what the summer brings,
Blue skies, Your eyes, Those kind of things,

Please, Stop, Kicking My Heart Around,
Spending my money and driving my car around
Cheapening our love, with everyone in town
I said Stop, Kicking My Heart Around.
Oh- Oh- Oooohooh! I said Stop.

And if you ever got to be a superstar,
With aeroplanes and works of art,
You'd still be hanging round the singles bar,
'Cos that's the way you really are,
You must have simple, stuff inside your head
Dragging your body from bed to bed.
Now you want to be back in my arms
Well, I'm not falling for your charms.

Don't want your skull and crossbone rings
Your Elvis poster, keep, those things.

Please, Stop Kicking...

You said Voulez Vous Couche Avec Moi, Ce Cois.
(Voulez- Couchez Avec Moi,)
Huh! Well it's the same old line,
The same old line,
But it won't work for you this time,

I give you back your Smiths CD,
Take everything you gave to me,

Please Stop Kicking My Heart Around...

One thing I never ever got from your love,
Was a love I could, be sure of,

Where can I run to,
Look what you've done to,
My heart,

Same place, after midnight,
Saw you looking so nice,
Hot stuff, pants on fire,
Please me, I want you now,

I'm born to flirt,
You're born to run,
Let's get together,
And get it on.

Come home with me baby,
Ooh, ya must be lucky,
No I don't do this for anyone,
Come home with me baby,
Ooh! ya must be lucky,
I was looking for somebody,
And you got the body I want,

I'm not complicated,
Please don't keep me waiting,
Hold me, then undress me,
Smooth talk, don't impress me,
Ask me once, and I say yes,
I want the pleasure of your flesh,

I see the look inside your eyes,
Like what you see come try me

Come home with me baby,
Ooh, ya must be lucky,
No I don't do this for anyone,
Come home with me baby,
Ooh! ya must be lucky,
I was looking for somebody,
And you got the body I want,

Touch me, baby touch me,

My love will take you to the top,
Among the stars, let's rock,

Come home with me baby,
Ooh, ya must be lucky,
No I don't do this for anyone,
Come home with me baby,
Ooh! ya must be lucky,
I was looking for somebody,
And you got the body I want,

My life is boring
I couldn't get to sleep I wanted more things
So, I looked in your eyes 'cause they were staring
But baby, you have gone and got me wrong

I'm in a danger
'Cause I'm not into falling for a stranger
I couldn't love you, even if I tried to
But baby, you have gone and got me wrong

It was your lucky day
You should be happy that I looked your way
It's just a game, you'll remember my name
Wow, your life's gonna change
(Love can be strange)

Come to me at night time
'Cause when the sun goes down, you know that's my time
And anytime you're with me that's a nice time
But baby, you have gone and got me wrong

Don't think you're a special one
I was looking for a night of fun
And you were right there, you had loves stuff to share
But don't think that I care, na, na, na, na
Don't think I care

You got me wrong, you got me wrong
I, oh I, don't wanna be your boyfriend
I, oh I, don't wanna be your boyfriend

I got your attention
But what is on my mind, I got to mention
That everywhere we go people are saying
But baby, you have gone and got me wrong

This is love on the run
Don't think you're the special one
Just have a good time, the pleasure's all mine
Don't tell me no more lies, don't tell no lies

You got me wrong
You got me wrong
You got me wrong
You got me wrong

I, oh I, don't wanna be your boyfriend
I, oh I, don't wanna be your boyfriend

This is your lucky day
You should be happy that I looked your way
It's just a game, you'll remember my name
Wow, your life's gonna change
(Love can be strange)

You got me wrong
You got me wrong
You got me wrong
You got me wrong

I, oh I, don't wanna be your boyfriend
I, oh I, don't wanna be your boyfriend

Tune in, turn on, drop out
You've got a happy face
Tune in, turn on, drop out
You've got a happy face

Tune in, turn on, drop out
You've got a happy face
Tune in, turn on, drop out
You've got a happy face

Tune in, turn on, drop out

You never loved me, I knew that from the start
All of my friends said that you would break my heart
And how right they were
As the change begins to show
Now I'm telling you to pack you're things and go on go!

Get out of my house, get out of my life
Take only what's yours, take nothing of mine.
Get out of my house, get out of my bed
Going out of my head
Over you

Babe when you walked in
My heart it skipped a beat
And I knew so well, it was bad times I would meet
Everybody said, Girl, you're wasting all your time
Didn't want to know
I had to try and make you mine

Get out of my house...

Everybody's laughing because it's you I'm after
They all said that I must be blind
Everybody's laughing but I block out their laughter
All the same at least you were mine
Just for a time
Just for a very special time

Get out of my house....

Gotta get over gotta get over gotta get over
Over you

Going out of my head day and night
Night and day and Night, wrong or right
I just can't break away

Get out of my house

When I last saw you
You seemed the same not much had changed
Then I walked past your window
You were there with somebody else and I knew their name

But I still feel the same
Should I just walk on by
If you're with someone else
I'll surely die, oh, I would surely die

Don't wake me if I'm dreaming
You know what I am dreaming of
That you want me to want you
Well, I still want your love

I cannot carry on, now that we're through
I used to have the best times with you
Everyday is the same when I'm not with you
It's winter again and there's nothing to do
Now that you're gone I cannot carry on

My world is empty but I feel no pain
I'll never fall in love again
And if you're new love should let you down
Don't you think twice, just hurry around

You know that I'll be waitin'
To have you back with me again
And if you do not want me
Tell me that this is the end

I cannot carry on, now that we're through
I used to have the best times with you
Everyday is the same when I'm not with you
It's winter again and there's nothing to do
Now that you're gone, I cannot carry on

When I last saw you
You seemed the same not much had changed
Then I walked past your window
You were there with somebody else and I knew their name

Don't wake me if I'm dreaming
You know what I am dreaming of
That you want me to want you
Well, I still want your love

I cannot carry on, now that we're through
I used to have the best times with you
Everyday is the same when I'm not with you
It's winter again and there's nothing to do
Now that you're gone

I cannot carry on, now that we're through
I used to have the best times with you
Everyday is the same when I'm not with you
It's winter again and there's nothing to do
Now that you're gone, I cannot carry on

People say you're a devil in disguise
I don't care just tell me all your sweet lies
Usually, I do not like your kind
I want your body, don't care about your mind

I have needs like any other man
I'm satisfied with any way I can

You're my forbidden lover
Got no time for any other
Everyone should have a love that they keep secret
You're my forbidden lover
Got no time for any other
Pin my heart upon your sleeve and you can keep it

Every time you walk out of the door
I hope you'll hurry back
You got me wanting more
When we love, I'm really in a groove
The way you kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss
You make my body move

When you are here and we're together
Your love takes me to heaven

You're my forbidden lover
Got no time for any other
Everyone should have a love that they keep secret
You're my forbidden lover
Got no time for any other
Pin my heart upon your sleeve and you can keep it

Money can't buy what you got
What you got I got to have
You really take me to the top
With your love

Take me to heaven

You're my forbidden lover
Got no time for any other
Everyone should have a love that they keep secret
You're my forbidden lover
Got no time for any other
Pin my heart upon your sleeve and you can keep it

You're my forbidden lover
Got no time for any other
Everyone should have a love that they keep secret
You're my forbidden lover
Got no time for any other
Pin my heart upon your sleeve and you can keep it

You're my forbidden lover
Got no time for any other
Everyone should have a love that they keep secret

I can have anything that I want
But what you want from me I don't what none!
And I don't want to watch the TV
Because that stuff don't appeal to me!
But what I want's got simplicity
What I want it wants only me
What I want don't say no at all
Listen blue eyes, shut up!
You've got what I want, what I want
What I need, what I need
What I want what I want
What I need, what I need
You have got it all!

Well I know how to have a good time
And I know how to wipe up the thin white line
And I know how to let my backbone slip (uh!)
I can do what I want but I don't do nothing
But what I want's got simplicity
What I want it wants only me
What I want don't say no at all
Listen blue eyes, shut up!
You've got what I want, what I want
What I need, what I need
What I want what I want
What I need, what I need
You have got it all!

But what I want's got simplicity
What I want it wan't me, me, me
What I want well it aint plucked chicken
Listen blue eyes, shut up!
You've got what I want, what I want
What I need, what I need
What I want what I want
What I need, what I need
Listen blue eyes
what I want, what I want
What I need, what I need
What I want what I want
What I need, what I need
Listen blue eyes!

I'd have in sing that I want

An aggressive nature
Does not make
The weaker man a gladiator
Inside this misty circle

Well, just looking at you
And all your schemes are undone
And you just can't pull my ideas down

Well, take a good look within
And this is no place for me
Oh, I just can't get my ideas down
They won't come down, down, down, down

Look at this mess we're in
To You, Lord, I do declare
I've got rusted guitar strings, man
Wound around my head

And lately these days
I'm in so many empty spaces
I'm transfixed, I see these ugly faces
That pull me down, down, down, down

Look at me
I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree
My heads in the clouds, yeah, I get misty
Just holding your hand

What can you do when you don't seem to fit
You fall to bits inside all because of it
Blame it on some massive lack of confidence

Three years from now where will I be?
Who will be behind me
Pulling me down, down down, down

Well, I'm curious about
How I got to be wrapped around
The lines on someone's hand

Won't you tell me realistically
How long can I expect to be
Inside this misty circle?

Well, what can you do?
It don't seem to fit
Where can you go?
All because just this can cure me
This misty circle

Look at me
I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree
My heads in the clouds, yeah
I get misty

I'm told my idea of seduction
Is a bit passe'
I hear you like to try it
So I'll try it anyway
I would try anything
I swear I'd try it here and now
I might impress you
With a Rudolf Valentino bow
I tell you to get your attention
I'd do anything
I would work night and day
For all the joy that she could bring
I'd like to be the hunter
Who get's captured by the game
Oh won't you run your fingers through my mane

I've gotta have my cake and eat it
I've gotta have my cake and eat it, too
I've gotta have my cake and eat it
I've gotta have my cake and eat it, too

I want fun I gotta run to you

To me you look just like
A treasure chest of pretty things
I already told
I would buy you ten real diamond rings
Oh let me tell you
I got lots of things that you could use
So don't reject it or I'll get
The love rejection blues
Any wish of yours is my command
I'd pay you money
If you'd only say you'd hold my hand
I'd speak in languages
That only you could ever hear
Oh baby, take me
Won't you please come here!?

I've gotta have my cake and eat it
I've gotta have my cake and eat it, too
I've gotta have my cake and eat it
I've gotta have my cake and eat it, too

I want fun I gotta run to you

I said I'd pay you money
If you'd only hold my hand
I hear you like to try it
So I go ahead as planned
I hear my smoochie talkin'
Might just be a bit old hat
So I'll watch what I'm sayin'
I don't think you'd go for that
A little birdie told me
That you just might feel the same
If you do then all you have to do
Is call my name
I would do anything
I swear I'd do it here and now
I might impress you
With a Rudolf Valentino bow

I've gotta have my cake and eat it
I've gotta have my cake and eat it, too
I've gotta have my cake and eat it
I've gotta have my cake and eat it, too

I've gotta have my cake and eat it
I've gotta have my cake and eat it, too
I've gotta have my cake and eat it
I've gotta have my cake and eat it, too

<i>Lyrics &copy; Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i>

Oh, you've got a brand new way of life I do not like so,
I'm p-p-p-p-p-p-packing my things and I'm running around so
Sit on it, sit on it, sit on it.
You you got the kind of looks that I just cannot take
Oh, the kind of steps that you were set
Well, I really really long to break but
You must have something, you must have something
Sit on it, sit on it, sit on it
You got me switching and bitching- everywhere!
First I get the feeling, and then I just can't feel it where it is
I see you but I can't touch you, move on up 'coz I can't feel you
Sit on it sit on it sit on it

I'm like a dog-dog-a-doggy that is on heat
And I been howlin' out loud for some black meat
And while you're out there waitin'
I'm doin' the chasin'
Don't like it, like it.
Am I bark-bark-a-barkin' up the wrong tree?
It should be you for you
And me for me
We should both get together
In somebody's bedroom
And make it, make it
*you know you make me wanna groove, yeah!
Groove, yeah!, Groove yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
I been hanging around around your street
And I've been checkin' every body out
It starts to get to me
And while you're out there makin'
The love that you're makin'
I'm schemin', dreamin'
And if I call you up upon your telephone
Somebody answers and they tell that you're never home
Well I might as well say it, I'm getting frustrated
Can't take it, take it.
(*repeat)
You know, I'm anticipating
And I don't care- I'm sick and tired of waiting
'Coz you're in and you're out always fucking about
Gotta stop it, stop it
I know, just what you're doing 'coz you're out there
With somebody new always in and you're out
Well, you're hurting my voice
So get movin, movin
(*repeat)
Well, I'm like a dog-dog-a-doggy that is on heat
And I been howlin' out loud for some black meat
And while you're out there waitin'
I'm doin' the chasin'
Don't like it, like it.
Am I bark-bark-a-barkin' up the wrong tree?
It should be you for me
And me for me
We should both get together
In somebody's bedroom
And make it, make it
(*repeat)
