You Better Ask
I met a little girl sittin' in the front pardon me miss for seeming quite so blunt but your beauty and your presence just took me by surprise she said there's a meaning in my sexy stare but that's my old man that's sittin' over there and that's not the look of love that he's got for you in his eyes you know what you've gotta do there's no one else to blame but you nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask you know what you've gotta do there's no one else to blame but you nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask I took her home and we was doing nip and tuck how was I to know that I was out of luck and before I knew it, the devil took my soul in two weeks time it seemed to be the steady con she told me "you're about to be a papa, John" and I just looked around and tried to crawl into the nearest hole you know what you've gotta do there's no one else to blame but you nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask you know what you've gotta do there's no one else to blame but you nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask [instrumental solos] well, in two more weeks I started feelin' sore I found myself waiting at my doctor's door he said, "son I'm sorry but I've got some slightly less than tragic news "yeah, it seems you've been sociable with certain she's cause you've contracted what we call a social disease and next time you better ask and use it, no don't refuse" you know what you've gotta do there's no one else to blame but you nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask you know what you've gotta do there's no one else to blame but you nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask you know what you've gotta do there's no one else to blame but you nobody's gonna tell you so next time you just had better ask |

Take off your hat, kick off your shoes.
I know you not goin' anywhere. Running around town singin' your blues. You know you ain't goin' anywhere. You've always been a good friend of mine, But just keep saying farewell. And the only time that you're satisfied, Is with your feet in the wishing well. Throw down your gun, you might shoot yourself. Or is that what you're tryin' to do? Put up a fight you believe to be right, And one day the sun will shine through. You've always got somethin' to hide. Somethin' you just can't tell. And the only time that you're satisfied, Is with your feet in the wishing well. But I know what you're wishing for. Love in a peaceful world. Love in a peaceful world. Love in a peaceful world. Love in a peaceful world. You've always been a good friend of mine, But you keep saying farewell. And the only time that you're satisfied, Is with your feet in the wishing well. In the wishing well. In the wishing well. Everybody's got a dream and they take it to the wishing well. Everybody's got a dream, hah. Wishing well. |

I guess we used to be the lucky ones
Whose fortune smiles on everyone Stop A voice said you best beware Stop Bad luck is everywhere And sure enough the voice was right My luck changed overnight Stop Please tell me what went wrong Stop I can't take these ups and downs Hard times come, hard times go And in between you hope and pray The scars don't show 'Cause life is strange and so unsure The days you hardly make it through You swear that there's a curse on you 'Cause nothing seems to fit And things won't go your way You know you've had enough You've got the right to say Why me, why me Stop Here comes anxiety Stop Won't you please let me be, I need relief Hard times come, hard times go In between you hope and pray The scars don't show 'Cause life is strange and so unsure The days you hardly make it through You're sure that there is a curse on you If nothing seems to fit And things won't go your way You know you've had enough You can't take another day Where to go and what to do You've got those bills to pay You're really not alone you know 'Cause everybody says, Why me |

Written by Dennis DeYoung
Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung How can I sleep tonight? When I know that tomorrow I'll be miles away, And how can I leave if I know when I kiss you goodbye, Baby you'll cry Where do I find the words? To convince you that there's a secret part of me, That dies every time I must pack up and walk out the door, When I'm wanting you more So while there's still time, Know that I love you, Baby please hold me tight, Girl while there's still time If I could stop the dawn, Make the moon and the stars shine on forever more, And never again have to say how much I'm missing you, But what can I do? So while there's still time, Say that you love me, Baby please hold me tight, Girl while there's still time If I should go, if I should go, There's a chance I could lose, The love of my life, the love of my life, Baby please don't make me choose Believe me Trust me Let me inside And while there's still time, Forget about tomorrow, Baby please let's not fight, Not while there's still time While there's still time While there's still time While there's still time Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh... |

Where you going now? When your world's turned inside out Isn't love what it's all about? Where you going now? When you get to the top of the hill Gonna be there yes I will There's a crack in the mirror, there's a hole in the sun Full moon in the midnight sky, and you feel like you wanna run So you blow out the candle and you turn out the light Then you stumble into darkness - who'd believe that love is blind? Didn't anybody tell you it's never too late to try? Hold the line, before you say goodbye Where you going now? When your world's turned inside out Isn't love what it's all about? Where you going now? When you get to the top of the hill Gonna be there yes I will Now I'm not talking about what's good for me And I'm not saying how you ought to be But if there is a message shining on through to you Take a little peace of mind and let that love-light shine Didn't anybody tell you it's never too late to try? Hold the line, before you say goodbye Where you going now? When your world's turned inside out Isn't love what it's all about? Where you going now?

There must be something out there,
There must be something real Well this mystery's a nightmare And I don't know what to feel Well I heard you had a hell of a time there I guess it chilled you down to the bone If there's one thing I can tell you It'll never leave you less than alone In spite of everything you told me In spite of everything I've heard There's nothing here that I call holy Not a solitary word Could you tell me what it's like on the outside Were you really lost and out of control Were you reaching for your freedom When the gatekeeper called for the toll Oh-oh, what have they done to you Where, where have you gone Oh-oh, I wanna run to you In spite of what you're saying I still can't let you go Well they say you witnessed some kind of lefe there Was it something real or nothing at all Or is your imagination all that's there to catch you If you start to fall Oh-oh, what have they done to you Where, where have you gone Oh-oh I wanna run to you In spite of what you're saying I still can't let you go Oh-oh, what have they done to you Where, where have you gone Oh-oh I wanna run to you In spite of what you're saying I still can't let you go What have they done to you |

Tonight's the night we'll make history, honey, you and I And I'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time And stay with you here tonight I know you feel these are the worst of times I do believe it's true When people lock their doors and hide inside Rumor has it it's the end of Paradise But I know, if the world just passed us by Baby I know, you wouldn't have to cry The best of times are when I'm alone with you Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime We'll take the best, forget the rest And someday we'll find these are the best of times These are the best of times The headlines read 'these are the worst of times' I do believe it's true I feel so helpless like a boat against the tide I wish the summer winds could bring back Paradise But I know, if the world turned upside down Baby, I know you'd always be around The best of times are when I'm alone with you Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime We'll take the best, forget the rest And someday we'll find these are the best of times These are the best of times |

Tonight's the night we'll make history. Honey you and I.
And I'll take any risk to tie back the hands of time, And stay with you here toinght (with you tonight, with you tonight) I know you feel these are the worst of times. I do believe it's true. When people lock their doors, and hide inside. Rumour has it it's the end of Paradise. But I know, if the world if the world just passed us by, baby I know I wouldn't have to cry Chorus: The best of times, are when I'm alone with you. Some rain some shine, we'll make this a world for two. Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime We'll take the best forget the rest and some day we'll find These are the best of times These are the best of times The headlines read "These Are The Worst Of Times", I do believe it's true. I feel so helpless like a boat against the tide. I wish the summer winds could bring back paradise. But I know, if the world turned upside down, baby I know You'd always be around (Repeat Chorus) (When I'm alone with you, you brighten up the night!) (When I'm alone with you ...) |

Superstars
by Styx You've read about me in the papers You've seen me on the movie screen You know everything about me I'm your late night fantasy But don't think I can't hear you calling From the shadow of the 14th row Cause I've had the same dreams you've had A few short years ago and that's why I know You and I We will climb so high Superstars Whoa whoa You and I And we'll just close our eyes And become our fantasy Superstars yes, yes, superstars Step right this way. Everyone's welcome, We want your dreams. The offer's simple, momentary immortality Cause I've seen them all you know I've seen them climb and I've seen them fall I've seen them come and I've seen them go And through it all there's only one thing that matters Love - And that's simply You and I Yes, You and I For we are superstars Lyrics and Music by: James Young, Dennis De Young, Tommy Shaw |

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck gettin' dirty-'n'-gritty Been down, isn't it a pity Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around people lookin' half dead Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match-head [Refrain:] But at night it's a different world Go out and find a girl Come on, come on and dance all night Despite the heat, it'll be all right And babe, don't you know it's a pity The days can't be like the nights In the summer in the city In the summer in the city Cool town, evening in the city Dressed so fine and looking so pretty Cool cat, looking for a kitty Gonna look in every corner of the city 'Til I'm wheezing like a bus stop Runnin' upstairs, gonna meet you on the roof top [Refrain] Hot town, summer in the city Back of my neck gettin' dirty-'n'-gritty Been down, isn't it a pity Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city All around people lookin' half dead Walking on the sidewalk, hotter than a match-head [Refrain] |

There was a time When a man lived by his word And the simple truth Was not so hard to take When his enemies Were thousands of miles away And he stood by The promises he'd make All that I ask for All that I need Is someone that I can believe Yeah Just like the air That we breathe in a single day To a drowning man How much do you think he'd pay All that I ask for All that I need Is someone that I can believe When I listen to the things you try to say Any ordinary man would fade away But if you want I'm ready to receive I know that I can believe Every word you say And the love you give away Goes straight to my heart And everything you do And how you follow through Can keep us together Or tear us apart When I listen to the things you try to say Any ordinary man would fade away But if you want I'm ready to receive Well I would not have it any other way I know that I I know that I I know that I can believe Yeah And I am listening To every word you say |

Every night I say a prayer
in the hope that there`s a heaven And every day I`m more confused as the saints turn into sinners All the heroes and legends I knew as a child have fallen to idols of clay And I feel this empty place inside so afraid that I`ve lost my faith Show me the way, show me the way Take me tonight to the river And wash my illusions away Please, show me the way And as I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment dreams are sacred I close my eyes and know there`s peace in a world so filled with hatred Then I wake up each morning and turn on the news to find we`ve so far to go And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid that I just won`t know Show me the way, Show me the way bring me tonight to the mountain and take my confusion away and show me the way And if I see a light, should I believe tell me how will I know Show me the way, show me the way take me tonight to the river and wash my illusions away Show me the way, show me the way Give me the strength and the courage to believe that I`ll get there someday And please show me the way And every night I say a prayer in the hope that there`s a heaven... |

in the hope that there`s a heaven And every day I`m more confused as the saints turn into sinners All the heroes and legends I knew as a child have fallen to idols of clay And I feel this empty place inside so afraid that I`ve lost my faith Show me the way, show me the way Take me tonight to the river And wash my illusions away Please, show me the way And as I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment dreams are sacred I close my eyes and know there`s peace in a world so filled with hatred Then I wake up each morning and turn on the news to find we`ve so far to go And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid that I just won`t know Show me the way, Show me the way bring me tonight to the mountain and take my confusion away and show me the way And if I see a light, should I believe tell me how will I know Show me the way, show me the way take me tonight to the river and wash my illusions away Show me the way, show me the way Give me the strength and the courage to believe that I`ll get there someday And please show me the way And every night I say a prayer in the hope that there`s a heaven... |

I tried to be the perfect soldier I tried to be what everyone said was expected Somehow I was selected Well, my hands were steady, my aim was true But deep inside of my heart I knew That I lacked the will I just couldn't shoot to kill And still she treats me like a human She says she'll still be there I may not be a hero, but I'll be there Because I know she cares I worked hard to be the greatest lover I wanted to be sure that I was her only one That's how I thought it was done But I went too far, assumed too much The need to feel a younger one's touch Seemed important then Oh what a fool I've been And still she treats me like a human (like a human) She says she'll still be there (that she'll be there) I don't quite understand it, she's been too fair 'Cause somehow she cares I guess that's the way it goes, the way that it goes And nobody knows what compels her She's seen my highs and lows and never let go Oh yes she treats me like a human (like a human) She says she'll still be there (that she'll be there) I don't quite understand it, she's been too fair 'Cause somehow she cares I guess that's the way it goes, the way that it goes And nobody knows what compels her She's seen my highs and lows and never let go And when the world has turned its back on me I won't have to feel alone 'Cause I know she cares |

Written by Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades, Ted Nugent
(Everyone needs a place to run away, run away) Summer night, moonlit sky Tearing pages from a magazine, she cries "I don't wanna be the lonely one tonight." She said, "I came to this place, full of dreams Young and innocent and only 16 Now I wonder if it's too late to turn back. So she runs, and she hides, and she dries the tears from her eyes And the night goes on, and on, and on She's in the twilight zone (twilight zone) Yeah, you gotta run, run, run away It's such a long way home When it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, run away Perfect day, feels like Spring Can see forever but you can't see anything Now I wonder why they call it "paradise" It's a crime, it's a shame And they won't remember your name And your life goes on, and on, and on It's like the twilight zone (twilight zone) Yeah, you gotta run, run, run away But she won't go home So she's gotta run, run, run away She came from a small town So tired of getting pushed around In the dark of the night, no one around She'll run from this shabby town, yeah, yeah, yeah [guitar solo] It's a laugh, it's a game Don't you let it drive you insane Cause your life goes on, and on, and on.... It's like the twilight zone (twilight zone) Yeah, you gotta run, run, run away But she won't go home When it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, run away She's in the twilight zone (twilight zone) Yeah, you gotta run, run, run away It's such a long way home When it hurts so bad you gotta run, run, run away [chorus fades] |

Wha'cha doing tonight? (What'cha doing?, What'cha doing?) Have you heard that the world's gone crazy? Young Americans listen when I say There's people putting us down I know they're saying that we've gone lazy To tell you the truth We've all seen better days Don't need no fast buck, lame duck, profits for fun Quick trick, plans to take the money and run We need the long term, slow burn, getting it done And some straight talking, hard working son of a guns So What'cha doing tonight? (What'cha doing?, What'cha doing?) I got faith in our generation Let's stick together and futurize our attitudes I ain't lookin' to fight, but I know with determination We can challenge the schemers who cheat all the rules Come on and take pride, be wise in spotting the fools Big shots, crackpots bending the rules A fair shot here for me and for you Knowing that we can't lose And we'll be: Rockin' in Paradise, Rockin' the Paradise tonight Rockin' in Paradise, Rockin' the Paradise tonight Tonight, Tonight! Come on and take pride, be wise in spotting the fools Big shots, crackpots bending the rules A fair shot here for me and for you Knowing that we can't lose Then we'll be: Rockin' in Paradise, Rockin' the Paradise tonight (x4 |

Queen Of Spades
by Styx (James Young/Dennis DeYoung) Day into night she's with me How sweet is her warm embrace Safe in the scent of jasmine So safe in her gold and lace Mornings I find, she's left me So cold so alone, but aware I try to escape, she finds me Oh run though I may, she's there, there, there, there, there... Luck is a lady whose smile is as cold as a stone She'll bring you things, many things you might never have known But when your die is cast she'll have the final laugh at you She'll lock you in a duel, where you come out the fool CHORUS Beware of the Queen of Spades Her black widow's curse might find you yet Beware of a love that you will regret Her love means only your death Day into night she's with me Turn of a card, she's there The first time is free, you know But from now on, pay me, me, me, me, me...
