Waoh Flying through the night in a beat up wagon
A mike stand up my jacksy And give me a beer and I'll stand on a chair And slip into something sexy Waoh The Black Cat Woolwich, The Tiger's Head, The Cafe des Artistes The Revolution and the Bag O' Nails, I'll see you down the Speak' Well your Ma said you slept real good in your food last night But you couldn't hold it down But you broke up a real good fight Ligging at the Old Marquee, spinning Jack a line Even he knew better than me in sixty nine Sixty nine, sixty nine Sixty nine, sixty nine On the road to Paradiso Back of your head, got to pay some dues Rugged looked down As the Thames swallowed his life at the Boathouse, Kew Hot girls, no AC, cheap TV, sleep on the floor Hallelujah, what's a roadie, hush my baby sleep no more Your Ma said you slept real good in your food last night You couldn't hold it down But you broke up a real good fight Ligging at the Old Marquee, spinning Jack a line Even he knew better than me in sixty nine |

Fly into the rising sun,
faces smiling ev'ryone. Oh, she is a whole new tradition, I feel it in my heart. My woman from Tokyo, she makes me see. My woman from Tokyo, she's so good to me. Talk about her like a queen, dancing in an eastern dream. Oh, she makes me feel like a river that carries me away. My woman from Tokyo, she makes me see. My woman from Tokyo, she's so good to me.. But I'm at home and I, I just don't belong. So far away from the garden we love, she is what moves in the soul of a dove. Soon I shall see just how black was the night, when we're alone in the city of light. Rising from the neon gloom, shining like a crazy moon. Oh, she turns me on like a fire, I get high. My woman from Tokyo, she makes me see. My woman from Tokyo, she's so good to me.. |

It's been a long and amazing time, how it's wasted is such a crime
And the stories we heard still echo in the distance Filled with promises and pain, we had everything to gain But the pride that comes before a fall is with us Lights are on and nobody's home, we've gone from color to monochrome Like some faded photograph with ghostly faces Whether enemy or a friend, it's the message that we send We will never change without until we change within Chorus: Back when the world was so young (when the world was young) To the day when the first song was sung (when the world was young) We chose our own way to black, white or gray When the world was young Are we learning from the past or has it all been already cast Who can change the course of a war against all reason There was one prevailing wind and we said we've got to make a stand And now the barrier's between us for a treason |

Unforgettable face, I can't think of her name
It's on the edge of my tongue, gathering dust in the back of my brain Something 'bout the way she ignores me that's vaguely familiar Makes you wonder what it was you ever did to thrill her Here we go again Here we go again Here I go again I never felt the need to soothe her savage breast She never felt obliged to tell me of her change of address Caught me on a downward swing but I fell through her arms How could I be so careless, I never meant to go so far Here we go again Here we go again Here I go again Oh she's back in town Oh she's back in town I'm not leaving I'm running away She took it all away, now she's back for the rest Took it all so easy, wouldn't settle for less She doesn't know what she wants but she knows how to get it I can't remember the time, she never let me forget it Here we go again Here we go again Here I go again Oh Whatsername's back in town She's back in town I'm not leaving I'm running away Oh she's back in town Oh she's back in town I'm not leaving I'm running away |

Well you told me that I was just not the one,
And you left me standing out in the cold It's been a long tiime and I'm so much better now, That I'm looking back and seeing it all and for the first time there's no pain in my life Though it's a long hardroad that I've gone We had a good thing and it made me a man cause I know CHORUS You got me goin', pardon me my feelings are showing I'm only saying what's on my mind Well I found you or maybe I found myself And I think we knew it all of the time We fit together just like a lock and a key And we opned up each other's minds Yeah, I was laughing 'cause there was no room to cry There waas too much growing to do We had a good time and it ain't over yet 'cause I know CHORUS You came from nowhere and you just jumped in my life and I know it never will be the same You made me love you and now I'm home once again No, I never want to leave you no more 'Cause I'm attached to the better half of myself And there's nowhere else that I'd rather be YOu filled an empty, you fixed a bad broken heart, and I know CHORUS |

Playing pool and drinking beer
Nothin more'n the occasional tear But this man's life goes on and he gets greased all over from time to time At the strip joint, where we met He said 'Hi, my name is Ted See that one over there That ball of thunder Every time she goes Vavoom, I wiggle in my chair Can I buy you a beer? What a guy 'I've had a few myself' he said 'But I never quit when I'm ahead Too many rules and regulations Stupid laws designed by fools behind closed doors And another thing I won't discuss is religion It always causes a fight Vavoom There she goes again 'How does she do that' said Ted And he told me of those unjustices (that) He had suffered in his life His wife and kids and boss and dogs and neighbours Raising cain and causing strife They were forever whining Bleating howling yapping screeching moaning crying Vavoom He fed them well He keep them warm Thing about Ted he didn't really care Nothing much got in his hair and the beauty of it was that he was right He was big as a truck and fast as a door (what's that?) he was always right The banjo player took a hike What's that song I used to like Vavoom He was big as a truck Fast as a door - Ted Ted the man our Ted |

Buried deep under blood and skin
A whisper a tempest is raging from within I hold my breath bitter proud Afraid to scream fire in the middle of a crowd I ponder incision envision the brain I beckon the surgeon to a slice against the grain now that I've waisted you the white room is pure the doctors are brave If there's a cure I want to be saved Sanctuary Under the knife sharp and shiny key Repair redeem resurrection Under the knife they'll cut you out of me Maybe love's imitation is life under the knife I have come to determine a reasonable doubt Where heaven and hell draw their boundary lines about Now that I've waisted you now that I've tasted you The white room had frost on the cold window pane Your love had been lost my love was in vain Sanctuary Cynical splices stitch and install Solder the filaments I feel nothing at all Second wind secrets let them rise let them fall I'll walk through your firestorm but never never crawl The gambler lives the blood stain dries It's time to forgive I open my eyes Sanctuary |

Tomb 19 was sacred a thousand years or more
The Mayan king was restless a curse upon the door His shrouds of royal fabric his journey to be made To offer spirits good and evil 14 beads of jade The jade had ancient powers or so beliefs allege To anyone who plundered they would drive him to the edge If you take the treasures of Tomb 19 Let the curse remind you Take the treasures of Tomb 19 But never look behind you On the walls of limestone temples Were medallions carved in stone Describing what was waiting in the eerie catacombs Though time leaves them in ruins their silhouettes pervade To guard the kings and heroes and the 14 beads of jade If you take the treasures of Tomb 19 Let the curse remind you Take the treasures of Tomb 19 But never look behind you |

Three pretenders forced their entry
There wasn't time to defend or attack Somewhere inside I held their fury But one by one my defenses began to crack The first became a voice from my childhood Without a world to call his own Asking questions but doubting the answers And too confused to stand up and face it alone I can feel my body tremble Like an animal under the gun Can you feel your body tremble Look in and see the eyes of Three Pretenders The second came a shadowy hustler Selling anything not nailed to the groud He put a price on my resistance And if it's high, I know he'll be marking it down The third became a mysterious traveller Stormy words like sea-weathered sails His life was scarred with peaks and valleys A haunted kingdom crumbling against the gales I can feel my body tremble Like a child afraid of the dark Can you feel your body tremble Look in and see the eyes of Three Pretenders |

I'm woven in a fantasy, I can't believe the things I see
The path that I have chosen now has led me to a wall And with each passing day I feel a little more like something dear was lost It rises now before me, a dark and silent barrier between, All I am, and all that I would ever want to be It's just a travesty, towering, marking off the boundaries my spirit would erase To pass beyond is what I seek, I fear that I may be too weak And those are few who've seen it through to glimpse the other side, The promised land is waiting like a maiden that is soon to be a bride The moment is a masterpiece, the weight of indecision's in the air It's standing there, the symbol and the sum of all that's me It's just a travesty, towering, blocking out the light and blinding me I want to see Gold and diamonds cast a spell, it's not for me I know it well The riches that I seek are waiting on the other side There's more that I can measure in the treasure of the love that I can find And though it's always been with me, I must tear down the Wall and let it be All I am, and all that I was ever meant to be, in harmony Shining true and smiling back at all who wait to cross There is no loss |

When all goes well spend some time remembering Know by now that times have changed But we feel each day can be deeper deeper It might be raining now But don't be scared you won't drown I'll hold you in my arms when the rivers rise Lay my heart besides your soul Don't let the tears blur the vision in your eyes Once my eyes get used to the dark I look around it's almost like I'm dreaming Shooting stars how they seem so close I feel your body it's moving breathing |

I've so much to say, and yet I cannot speak Come and do my bidding now for I have grown too weak My weary eyes have seen all that life can give Come to me, O young one, for you I can forgive I stood where no man goes, and conquered demon foes With glory and passion no longer in fashion The hero breaks his blade Cast this shadow long that I may hide my face And in this cloak of darkness the world I will embrace In all that I endure, of one thing I am sure Knowledge and reason change like the season A jester's promenade Lying at my feet I see the offering you bring The mark of Cain is on our faces, borne of suffering O, I long to see you say it's not been wrong I stand before you now, a riddle in my song The answer is that sweet refrain Unheard it always will remain Beyond our reach, beyond our gain Trapped in life's parade, a king without a crown In this joy of madness, my smile might seem a frown With talons wrought of steel, I tore the heart of doom And in one gleaming moment I saw beyond the tomb I stood where no man goes, above the din I rose Life is amusing though we are losing Drowned in tears of awe |

I've got books that say the good man's golden
And more that say the bad will fall, So many men have drowned in evil, and left Lucifer standing tall Don't take the devil's dare, don't gamble when the game ain't fair, Lock and bolt the doors, can't let the devil use you anymore You got to listen all you mugs and reivers, if you do any wrong You make it right You can't be a make-believer, 'cause soon you're gonna pay the price, Lying, hat and pain, all part of the devil game, Got his foot inside the door, but you can't let him use you anymore Take, he will take, he will take, give him nothing he'll take, he will take He will take, he will give nothing but he'll take Pray, for devils have no reason, Satan waits to curse your ways, Have you seen it in his eyes in the sunset, Have you wondered if he's laughing when you play, Has he asked if you're alone if what he sees is all you own, Has he offered you happiness, money, or much better lays Satan leave me, leave me lonely, leave us alone I've got books that say the good man's golden And more that say the bad will fall, Take a look at what the future's holdin', Won't be yours if you don't heed this call, Life is a game, and the stakes will remain the same. Now you've gotta choose, is the devil gonna win or lose again |

Riding on the moonpath in the silver of the night The fragrance on the air was of another time I cried in all my innocence you were dressed in white and even if I'd had the strength I couldn't move to save my life The fear and the thrill of the beast at the window The shivers and the chills on the hottest of nights he walked right through my open door As I began to run, he threw some gold upon the floor, and said There's plenty more where that came from I'm tired of the bombs I'm tired of the bullets I'm tired of the crazies on TV I'm the aviator A dream's a dream whatever it seems I flew along the lighted street I flew above the town I flew in ever rising cicrcles ever further from the ground As I begin to lose my breath printed faxes turn a spin A distant corner of the room will open up and let me in I'm tired of the news I'm tired of the weather I'm tired of the same thing every day I'm the aviator A dream's a dream whatever they say |

Nothin more'n the occasional tear But this man's life goes on and he gets greased all over from time to time At the strip joint, where we met He said 'Hi, my name is Ted See that one over there That ball of thunder Every time she goes Vavoom, I wiggle in my chair Can I buy you a beer? What a guy 'I've had a few myself' he said 'But I never quit when I'm ahead Too many rules and regulations Stupid laws designed by fools behind closed doors And another thing I won't discuss is religion It always causes a fight Vavoom There she goes again 'How does she do that' said Ted And he told me of those unjustices (that) He had suffered in his life His wife and kids and boss and dogs and neighbours Raising cain and causing strife They were forever whining Bleating howling yapping screeching moaning crying Vavoom He fed them well He keep them warm Thing about Ted he didn't really care Nothing much got in his hair and the beauty of it was that he was right He was big as a truck and fast as a door (what's that?) he was always right The banjo player took a hike What's that song I used to like Vavoom He was big as a truck Fast as a door - Ted Ted the man our Ted |

The world began to change the children moved and they had children
It was all arranged you couldn't live there anymore All you had was that old place in the middle of the path of progress So they took the space and put the ceiling on the floor In one of the rooms all the walls were blue It was hidden so well that no one knew Just the place for taking in the view The View of the sea crisp and clear and neverending There your soul ran free there you spirit soared The View took you away to the boundaries of imagination Back to yesterday back to once before In one of the rooms all the walls were blue A mysterious space without a clue Just the place for taking in the View Long lives need no fortune Hard lives need no fame Young lives seek their freedom And old lives seek the same The world began to change and without a word of explanation Something very strange started beckoning to you When they came to mvoe your things you had packed a suitcase full of memories Nothing else to bring except a different point of View In one of the rooms all the walls were blue A mysterious space without a clue Just the place for taking in the View |

Oh you're all looking up
With hearts of devotion Through the dust and the heat lost to me In a cloud of emotion I have no motivation To keep this breathless pace I'm more inclined to stay here In this breathing space And the sun goes down And the moon comes up I never tried to walk the walk 'Cos the steps are elusive The membership is too costly And exclusive Hey, the more I've got The more I stand to lose So I'm gonna unpack my bags And take off my shoes And the sun goes down And the moon comes up Let me tell you there's no point knocking At the big oak door Can't you see that it's all full up They can't take no more The line's so long It's almost Disney Ooh? Wont somebody kiss me And the sun goes down And the moon comes up |

I can feel someone here
In the air tonight Waiting alone inside for survival Cruising this place Like flesh on a neon sign Brighten up my life tonight Before the candle flickers Stand beside me I will never let you fall Stand beside me I'll come whenever you call I will take it to the wall I had a life out here Like a rumble fish Waiting to drown like all of my rivals Hiding in rooms so hot To the human touch Choose your poison if you can Take this heart of mine and... Stand beside me I will never let you fall Stand beside me I'll come whenever you call I will take it to the wall |

The sparks of the tempest rage a hundred years on
The voice of the dreamer screams, the cause of the pawn The King and the Queen are gone, each piece is the same The difference between us is a part of the game Darkness is spreading like a spot on the sun The dead are the living in the age of the gun While everyone clamors for the justice they seek The Word is corrupted and the strong take the weak They mold you and shape you, they watch what you do The sparks of the tempest are burnin' you through Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain Though they may promise, they only bring pain The future is managed, and your freedom's a joke You don't know the difference as you put on the yoke The less that you know the more you fall into place A cog in the wheel, there is no soul in your face Run for the cover, Millennium's here Bearing the standard of confusion and fear Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain Though they may promise, they only bring pain Blood in the sand, a cry in the street Now the cycle is nearly complete Ten thousand years, and nothing was learned No turning back, now the wheel has turned Big Brother is watching and he likes what he sees A world for the taking, when he's ready to squeeze The King and the Queen are gone, each piece is the same The difference between us is a part of the game Soothsayer saying now tell me no lies What is this madness that is filling the skies Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain Though they may promise, they only bring pain |

Remind me to tell you bout the old silver miner name of hard rock Pete had his house built on a slope They say one of his legs lived in Calico Ther's a rumour going round that the other lived in hope So I walked in the room and I stopped I turned around and looked over my shoulder And a voice close beside me said You'd better watch your head the party's over It wasn't long before the waitress came over and said Can I freshen up your drink and have you heard of these boys and if you feel included to buy some cowboy boots Well it's not that bad we can talk above the noise So I sucked on my beer Shut my eyes and tried to listen to the words I know I missed the meaning but the message was something I'd already heard Johnny Ringo's voice is getting deeper and now he's going to put another lock on the door The night is getting later My head is getting lighter The mood is getting darker Tequila's being poured So I smile at the old gunslinger in his frame on the wall as he pushed back his hat And it's all coming back I'd cut a long story short but it's much too late for that Somebody stole my guitar They took it from the back seat of my car I was sleeping in Memphis in my hotel room and somebody stole my guitar |

We all came out to Montreux
on the Lake Geneva shoreline to make records with a mobile We didn't have much time Frank Zappa and the Mothers were at the best place around But some stupid with a flare gun burned the place to the ground Smoke on the water And fire in the sky Smoke on the water They burned down the gambling house It died with an awful sound Funky Claude was running in and out pulling kids out the ground When it all was over We had to find another place But Swiss time was running out It seemed that we would lose the race Smoke on the water And fire in the sky Smoke on the water 간주 We ended up at the Grand Hotel It was empty cold and bare But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside making our music there With a few red lights, a few old beds We made a place to sweat No matter what we get out of this I know, I know we'll never forget Smoke on the water And fire in the sky Smoke on the water |

In the time we spent together Many words have passed between And the feelings that we shared are all behind us now 'Cause a change has come upon me And I'm surly not the same There is so much more than what we feel and live every day (Chorus) Relentless, unchanging Though the world is still before me now I'm seeing forever I will keep my heart and mind with you So joyously I'm waiting for the day In a single timeless moment When the old was cast away The new was born into a world of simple joy And my life is still for living Though it's seen through different eyes And the knowledge of the truth's A burden easy to bear (Bridge) It's drawing so near It's shrouded in mystery Histories fall, the end of an age The feeling we're waiting for, hoping for Now, the time to come alive The end to which we strive Will soon arrive Now the gift is truly given If you only would receive For you're standing in the crossroads And you can't turn back Though we can't conceive forever And it's sometimes hard to care Our lives do not compare to what's awaiting us there |

Have you ever seen a miracle - you couldn't doubt or imitate
What's it really worth to you to shake the holy hand of fate Well I did what I could to make ends meet Been a gunrunner and a medicine man In a Kansas town I was a rainmaker - there the hand of fate got out of hand Rainmaker Rainmaker save this one horse town Rainmaker pray to heaven From the Flint Hills the land was cracked and dried Thirsty streets in misery I took the sign down that said medicine man Put one up that said rainmaker - that was me So the townspeople gave me money up front To light a fire - pray, and dance around Tell them it'd rain so they'd all go to bed And I'd make my break clean out of town But I started this dance and a storm kicked up The sky went black from coast to coast It was too late to stop - it was to late to pray I had summoned down the Holy Ghost Oh the searing wind and the clouds of dust And hell came raining down What came out of me and the powers that be Was the last of that one horse town |

And he soaks the world with sunshine as he makes another round It's been a faster yeard than yesterday, all things that I had planned And when I think I might be gaining I'm in the sunshine once again Well I walk the road of life among the strong, among the weak And I ask them for the shortcut to the answers that I seek But it seems nobody understands what is and what will be Oh, the questions of my childhood weave a web of mystery Can you get me through these changes? Well I sure don't know about life, but one thng for sure All I need is you babe, we got to get the golden key to unlock the door I don't need to face a world of disillusion I've come to one conclusion that I know you know is true In the game of silent searching the cost of love is rising And I'm just now realizing I'd be better off with you It's a game that I've been living, now I Need to know what's real Can you help me find the answers, can you tell the way I feel? Will you stay with me forever, just stay with me tonight And we can talk about tomorrow if it all works out alright |

from Kansas - Power (2002)
Sometimes a smile can deceive the one who has made you promise
Suddenly you can't believe, the truth only leaves you cold Sometimes the answers you fear are there on the face in the mirror Something the world needs to hear but no one is even listening Power It takes Power Power It takes Power To back up the things you say Power It takes Power Power It takes Power To cut through the chains Breakaway Fortune can werar a disguise Pride is a grand illusion And when it's your name up in lights fate proves this one conclusion Sometimes the answers you fear are there on the face in the mirror Something the world needs to hear the truth only leaves you cold Power It takes Power Power It takes Power To back up the things you say Power It takes Power Power It takes Power To cut through the chains Breakaway Power It takes Power Power It takes Power To fight back and not be afraid Power It takes Power Power It takes Power To cut through the chains Breakaway All that you see someday will be Lost in the shadows of time Mountains must fall Someday this all Will be darkness where light used to shine All I Wanted You say it's time to stay behind All I wanted was to hold you All I wanted was to touch you No need for blame cause we're not the same All I wanted was to love you That's all I wanted How many times will it take Hurting me the way you do How many times till I break You're hurting me the way I'm loving you the way I do It's not so strange for us to change All I wanted was to love you That's all I wanted How many times will it take Hurting me the way you do How many times till I break You're hurting me the way I'm loving you the way I do |

from Kansas - Point Of Know Return (1977)
He had a thousand ideas, you might have heard his name
He lived alone with his vision Not looking for fortune or fame Never said too much to speak of He was off on another plane The words that he said were a mystery Nobody's sure he was sane But he knew, he knew more than me or you No one could see his view, Oh where was he going to He was in search of an answer The nature of what we are He was trying to do it a new way He was bright as a star But nobody understood him "His numbers are not the way" He's lost in the deepest enigma Which no one's unraveled today But he knew, he knew more than me or you No one could see his view, Oh where was he going to And he tried, but before he could tell us he died When he left us the people cried, Oh where was he going to? He had a different idea A glimpse of the master plan He could see into the future A true visionary man But there's something he never told us It died when he went away If only he could have been with us No telling what he might say But he knew, he knew more than me or you No one could see his view Oh, where was he going to But he knew, you could tell by the picture he drew It was totally something new, Oh where was he going to? |

I heard the men saying something
The captains tell they pay you well And they say they need sailing men to Show the way, and leave today Was it you that said, "How long, how long?" They say the sea turns so dark that You know it's time, you see the sign They say the point demons guard is An ocean grave, for all the brave, Was it you that said, "How long, how long, How long to the point of know return?" Your father, he said he needs you Your mother, she says she loves you Your brothers, they echo your words: "How far to the point of know return, to the point of know return" "Oh Oh, how long, how long?" Today I found a message floating In the sea from you to me It wrote that when you could see it You cried with fear, the Point was near Was it you that said, "How long, how long, how long To the Point of Know Return?" How Long? How Long to the point of no return?" No Return How Long? (Repeat and Fade) |

you think that something`s happening
and it`s bigger than your life but it`s only what you`re hearing will you still remember when the morning light has come will the songsbe playing over and over till you do it all over again play,play the game tonight can you tell me if it`s wrong or right it is worth the time, is it worth the price do you see yourself in a white spotlight then play the game tonight and when the curtains open to the roaring of the crowd you will feel it all around you then it finally happens and it`s all come true for you and the songs are playing over and over till you do it over again |
