Listen dear  
I need you to hear.  
I cannot disappear  
I’ve tried again and again and again, and again.

I know we said  
That we’d give up  
You said we’d had enough  
Again and again and again, and again.

But you, you’re always on my mind.  
It’s like this all the time.  
Say it’s cause you’re mine  
All mine…

And if you will, I will  
Try to let it go.  
And if you try, I’ll try  
Try to let it show us the way  
'Cause love is here to stay  
Just look me in the eye  
This is do or die  
And I will stay in love  
'Till you say enough  
There is no giving in  
There is no giving up in love.

Walk down the street  
Stare at lots of things  
The fast and steady streams  
Again and again and again, and again.

Cool woman, cool eyes, you got me hypnotized  
So head down, get a rhythm  
Stop your stalling and your bitching  
I’m rock steady, I’m still shaking  
I’m ready for the taking  
So make your move, yeah, make me  
And get ready for the big “C”

Let it rock, yeah  
Let it roll, let it  
Let it go, let it go  
You gotta let it rock, come on  
Let it roll, yeah just let it go

Slow down, hold on  
You’re too fast, you’re too strong  
Take it easy, take it slow  
Make it last, don’t let go  
We’re one body, it’s one way  
You’re not leaving, c’mon stay  
So get down on your knees  
And let me know you’re eager to please

Let it rock, yeah  
Let it roll, let it  
Let it go, let it go  
You gotta let it rock, come on  
Let it roll, yeah just let it go

Gonna let it rock  
Let it roll  
Let the Bible Belt come  
And save my soul  
Hold on to sixteen as long as you can  
Changes come around real soon  
Make us women and men

Well I see my friends and family  
Ae waiting at the door  
It’s party like you never saw before  
There’s a bareskin in the bedroom  
And another on the floor  
It’s a party like you never saw before

So I say  
Time to rock  
Time to roll  
Oh I can’t wait to celebrate  
And we go marching home  
Time to rock  
Time to roll  
Oh I can’t wait to celebrate  
As we go marching home

Come on in, my love  
Come in, don’t be a stranger  
There are times, many times  
When myself I’ve done stranger  
…stranger, stranger…  
Let it roll lassy, roll

Come what may, anyway  
I was born not to follow  
There are times, many times  
When my pride I must swallow  
…follow…  
…swallow…  
Oh, let it roll lassy, roll

Because in time, it goes away  
Time proves nothing stays  
The time for change has ended  
It loves you still but I never will again

Roll, roll me away,  
I’m gonna roll me away tonight  
Gotta keep rollin, gotta keep ridin’,  
keep searchin’ till I find what’s right  
And as the sunset faded  
I spoke to the faintest first starlight  
And I said next time  
Next time  
We’ll get it right

No one can understand  
What I gotta do  
I gotta find a place to hide  
With my baby by my side  
She’s been hurt so much,  
They treat her mean and cruel  
They try to keep us far apart  
There’s only one thing that we can do

We gotta keep searchin’, searchin’  
Find a place to hide  
Searchin’, searchin’  
She’ll be by my side  
If we gotta keep on the run  
We’ll follow the sun wee-oo  
We’ll follow the sun wee-oo

As my life goes on I believe  
Somehow something’s changed  
Something deep inside  
Ooh a part of me

There’s a strange new light in my eyes  
Things I’ve never known  
Changin’ my life  
Changin’ me

I’ve been searchin’  
So long  
To find an answer  
Now I know my life has meaning  
Oh oh

Now I see myself as I am  
Feeling very free  
Life is everything  
Ooh it’s meant to be  
When my tears have come to an end  
I will understand  
What I left behind  
Part of me

Don’t want to be a richer man  
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes

Ch-ch-Changes  
Just gonna have to be a different man  
Time may change me  
But I can’t trace time

Well we all have a face  
That we hide away forever  
And we take them out and show ourselves  
When everyone has gone  
Some are satin some are steel  
Some are silk and some are leather  
They’re the faces of the stranger  
But we love to try them on

Well, we all fall in love  
But we disregard the danger  
Though we share so many secrets  
There are some we never tell  
Why were you so surprised  
That you never saw the stranger  
Did you ever let your lover see  
The stranger in yourself?

Don’t be afraid to try again  
Everyone goes south  
Every now and then  
You’ve done it, why can’t someone else?  
You should know by now  
You’ve been there yourself

Once I used to believe  
I was such a great romancer  
Then I came home to a woman  
That I could not recognize  
When I pressed her for a reason  
She refused to even answer  
It was then I felt the stranger  
Kick me right between the eyes

Cheeseburger is paradise.  
Heaven on earth with an onion slice.  
Not too particular, not too precise.  
I’m just a cheeseburger in paradise.

My girlfriend’s over but I sent her away  
‘cause she almost knocked the supper off my TV tray  
Bring a loada’  
RC Cola  
TV Dinner  
A plate of Twinkies  
It takes a pink burrito  
For to keep me clean  
(For to keep me clean)

TV dinner is the meal that I’m lovin’  
Take off the foil, 30 minutes in the oven  
Bring a loada’  
RC Cola  
TV Dinner  
A plate of Twinkies  
It takes a pink burrito  
For to keep me clean  
(For to keep me clean)

TV dinners, there’s nothin’ else to eat  
TV dinners, they really can’t be beat  
I like 'em frozen but you understand  
I throw 'em in and wave 'em and I’m a brand new man oh yeah!

TV dinners, they’re goin’ to my head  
TV dinners, my skin is turnin’ red  
Twenty year old turkey in a thirty year old tin  
I can’t wait until tomorrow and thaw one out again oh yeah!

TV dinners, I’m feelin’ kinda rough  
TV dinners, this one’s kinda tough  
I like the enchiladas and the teriyaki too  
I even like the chicken if the sauce is not too blue

And they’re mine, all mine, oh yeah  
And they sure are fine.  
Gotta have ‘em  
Gimme somethin’ now

The skies are charcoal grey,  
It’s a dreary downtown day,  
But at the end of my thirty foot leash,  
Is my little friend Quiche.  
Quiche La Poodle is her name  
And having a good time on a crummy day is our game.

Quiche Quiche Lorraine  
Quiche Quiche Lorraine

Everyday I take her out. Yea!  
She runs around, she shouts out and barks, Yea!  
Cause she’s a good doggie  
She’s a sweet, sweet, sweet PUPPY! Arf Arf  
And I know she’ll stick by me, Yea! Arf Arf

Oh no! Here comes a Great Dane  
Drivin’ down the lane  
Quiche, Quiche, Quiche come back here;  
Don’t leave me.  
I’ll go insane!  
I’ll go insane!

Now, lookee here baby, listen to my song  
Don’t get mad, because it ain’t no harm  
I want to play with your poodle  
Can I play with your poodle  
Now, let me play with your poodle  
I mean your little poodle dog, yeah

Now he’s the best little poodle I’ve ever seen  
What I likes about it, you sure keeps him clean  
I want to play with your poodle  
Can I play with your poodle  
Now, let me play with your poodle  
I mean your little poodle dog

I plays so soft, so gentle and sweet  
Like to play with him at least one day a week  
I want to play with your poodle  
Can I play with your poodle  
Now, let me play with your poodle  
I mean your little poodle dog

Your little poodle’s got long black shaggy hair  
Looks like the face of a teddy bear  
I want to play with your poodle  
Can I play with your poodle  
Now, let me play with your poodle  
I mean your little poodle dog

Give me the sense to wonder  
To wonder if I’m free  
Give me a sense of wonder  
To know I can be me  
Give me the strength to hold my head up  
Spit back in their face  
Don’t need no key to unlock this door  
Gonna break down the walls, break out of this bad place

Can I play with madness?  
The prophet stared at his crystal ball  
Can I play with madness?  
There’s no vision there at all  
Can I play with madness?  
The prophet looked at me and laughed at me (ha ha)  
Can I play with madness?  
He said you’re blind, too blind to see
