I am for a life around the corner That takes you by surprise That comes leaves all you need And more besides I am for a life and time by numbers Blast in fast 'n' low Add 'em up, account for luck You never know
I am into friendship and plain sailing Through frenzied ports o' call O shake the hand to beat the band With love is all
Or nothing to the man who wants tomorrow There's one in every town A crazy guy, he'd rather die Than be tied down
I am for the man who drives the hammer To rock you 'til the grave His power drill shocks A million miles away
I am for the revolution's coming I don't know where she's been For those who dare because it's there I know I've seen
Now and then I've suffered imperfection I've studied marble flaws And faces drawn pale and worn By many tears
I am that I am from out of nowhere to fight without a cause Roots strain against the grain With brute force you'd better Hold out when you're in doubt Question what you see And when you find an answer Bring it home to me.
Dear Hyde No more can I Explain, I've tried With words in vain They pass you by Like falling rain From perfect skies Still falls the rain Inside
Hey brother don't be square Here it is not over there I'm your man, I've got it made You need my fire you need my shade You're here Hyde
Once more inspire This strangely tied Uncertain frame So torn inside Still falls the rain Two minds, one vein Still falls the rain Inside
Hey doctor don't be scared It's you and me so where's my share? I'm the man just move aside Call me mister call me Hyde Hey lover don't be shy I'm a single minded guy
Better watch me, boy I'm rough Half a man ain't strong enough Hey brother don't be square Here it is not over there I'm your man, I've got it made You feed my fire you need my shade
Through the undercover hour Bad and bleak To be brief, too much sorrow And flesh is weak No more feelings No more tears
The river's wide enough Flowing stronger through the years Silver lips, kisses borrowed Glances steal To quick, how they quiver Too late they're sealed No more feelings No more tears
The river's wide enough Flowing stronger through the years
I've been around So far it seems Too bad the blues Blew my schemes Dynamite
Such sweet surprise In southern heat Or northern skies Ain't that so Shadows cling Where shutters close
Who can tell Heaven knows Why some can laugh And some can sing Stand in line Or get on down and swing Ain't that so Cross the street who's ringing bells?
Peeling walls Of cheap hotels Neon flare A sudden chill And there you lie And time stands still Ain't that so
Yesterday - well it seemed so cool When I walked you home, kissed goodnight I said "it's love" you said "all right" It's funny how I could never cry Until tonight and you pass by Hand in hand with another guy You're dressed to kill and guess who's dying? Dance away the heartache Dance away the tears Dance away Loneliness is a crowded room Full of open hearts turned to stone All together all alone All at once my whole world had changed Now I'm in the dark, off the wall Let the strobe light up them all I close my eyes and dance till dawn Dance away Now I know I must walk the line Until I find an open door There was I - many times a fool I hope and pray, but not too much Out of reach is out of touch All the way is far enough Dance away
Are you ready for bad blood? I've got my share I'm sick of them sweet sweet nothings Oh! In my ear
Ain't funny I'm the honey All your money just can't buy So baby you can cry cry cry Now the last laugh is mine You ready for hot stuff? Be prepared
I'm sick of your cheap cheap hustle Oh! Don't cha dare Let us pray the lord have mercy On your mercenary mind 'Cause even if you cry cry cry Your heart out I won't be kind Are you ready for good times? Hard to bear!
You're steppin' on holy ground Hold it there! I'm fading out your hologram A phoney toothpaste smile Remember when you cry cry cry Your heart out I did mine
Now the ballroom's empty Everybody I have known Has been and gone With the music over Here am I A shadow echoing on Spin me round
Now there must be something In what they say of all things Great and small There's dozen roses Lying almost dying To say all Spin me round
A nether world dancing toy I'm wired for sound Does it matter to me Who turns the key? Now if life is for living Then the way is clear But I don't understand Why the dream has ended Yet I can't wake up Lend a hand Spin a round
